Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Doesn’t Want to Become a Night City Legend

Chapter 3 Mama is gone
When Lu Mingfei first entered Night City, all he saw was an empty room.

After the initial 'shutdown and restart', Lu Mingfei immediately jumped down from the bed. He stretched out his left hand and reached behind with his right hand, making the posture of a monkey soldier from Flower-Fruit Mountain and yelling "Who is committing this evil?"

The emotions are passionate and positive, without any fear.

Young boys always fantasize about being reincarnated into another world, where they will become the protagonist and dominate the world with Crystal Palaces. Lu Mingfei is sure of that.

Maybe a goddess or a beautiful girl will come to greet me next?
The boy fantasized like this.

But after a long time, Lu Mingfei maintained the posture until his waist was sore, but no one responded to him. After a brief thought, Lu began to gradually rule out the possibility of "variety show" and "abduction".

There were no cameras and no signs of binding on the hands and feet.

So it really is reincarnation in another world?

His mind became active again, Lu Mingfei relaxed his lips and blurted out a few old jokes that no one would respond to.

Just when he was about to check if there were any needle marks on his body, he felt something strange behind his ear.

".What's this?"

Lu Mingfei's fingertips touched the skin behind his ear, and the touch made him feel as if he was falling into an icy cave.

My head, no, why is my neck so pointy?

Hard.

How should I describe it? It's a bit like the feeling Lu Mingfei got when he poked the USB port with his hand when he was a child and didn't know any better.

It's hard and cold, and if you use too much force, your skin will feel the sharp edge of the socket.

There was silence for a second, and then his expression changed drastically.

The boy rolled and crawled in a panic to the toilet, pulled his ears with his hands, tilted his head and twisted his neck, trying to see the skin clearly in an extremely awkward posture.

Then he saw it clearly in the mirror.

On the side of my neck, there is a clearly visible "USB" port.

“FUCK AAAA ...

Abduction, kidnapping, surgery, brain-computer interface.
Many thoughts flashed through Lu Mingfei's mind, but his first reaction was to scream out.

At that moment, he finally felt that he had come to a strange environment, and it was natural.
fear.

————————————————————————————————————

Under the lights of Night City, the boy who traveled to another world slowly got up from the bed, walked to the desk, and took out a black notebook from the right drawer, just like his habit at his aunt's house.

In this world, people's brains are computers, and there is actually no need for physical diaries.

Fortunately, Lu Mingfei in this world is still a rare commodity. He doesn't even pretend to have a prosthetic body and even likes to write in his diary by hand.

There was a lot of content in the diary, so Lu Mingfei turned it to the middle.

That was the first page I wrote after coming to this world.

Everything starts from the beginning of July.

The beginning of a nightmare.

【Time: July 1st】

[My first diary entry. I always feel like I need to record something.]

After that, I checked every nook and cranny of my body. Thankfully, besides that damn brain-computer interface, I also seem to have signs of alterations around the edges of my eyes. Actually, I should have noticed earlier. My vision is better than before, but it's covered by something like an electronic screen. I can see a countdown, which, by conversion, is about seven days.

[The field of vision itself is a bit like a game console. My eyeballs are probably not flesh and blood anymore. I can even use them to receive emails from the Internet.]

For the sake of convenience, although there is a slight ambiguity, the last time Lu Mingfei came to the other world, he will be referred to as [First Round Lu Mingfei].

In the first week, after Lu Mingfei came to this world on the first day, he soon screamed in embarrassment when he saw his brain-computer interface.

He didn't sleep that day, but just huddled in the corner of the room, picked up a decorative wrench from the bookshelf for self-defense, and stared at the door of the strange room like a stressed hamster.

The diary turns to the next page.

July 2

[A night passed without anyone bothering me. If the "email" message in my eyes is correct, then this is my home.]

[The location is Watson District? Okay, so I took this opportunity to start searching the internet for information about the current world.]

【And then. Oh my god. I really don’t want to believe what I saw. 】

【This is the year 2076! 】

The technology in this world is far more advanced than I'm aware of. Mewtwo, prosthetics, airships, lunar travel—things straight out of science fiction are becoming reality one after another, and humans have basically undergone transformation. Originals like me are rare.

History has changed. From the conclusion, this world seems to be different from common sense. The world is controlled by "companies" with armed armies. Cities are scattered, but without exception, they are all controlled by companies.

They produce armies, they produce weapons, they control the people, they seem to be able to do anything.

Humanity is crudely divided into corporate giants, corporate dogs, gangsters, mercenaries, and the rest of the untouchables who can die at any time.

[This is Night City, a futuristic metropolis ruled by corporations.]

They call it Dream City, but looking at the crime and death rates, I think it should be called San Andreas or something like that.

On the second day of the first week, Lu Mingfei began to understand the world, and the diary came to the next page.

July 3rd

I already understand Night City's basic structure. The types of gangs, the distribution of regions, and even the city's history are easy to research. It's as easy as looking up a game manual. Yes, a game! The screen I'm looking at right now is completely game-like. Have I traveled into some fucking game?! [However, I don't understand myself. Fortunately, I can find this notebook in this world.]

That’s right, as mentioned before, this notebook contains a lot of content, and Lu Mingfei’s time-travel diary only officially begins in the middle.

What about before that?
Of course, that was not written by Lu Mingfei in the first week when he first arrived, but by the 'previous Lu Mingfei'.

Lu Mingfei, who was born in Night City.

I don't know why I've developed a diary in this world. Who would write a diary if they were serious? But it's been a big help. At least I understand my situation now.

[I, Lu Mingfei, have the same parents in this world as I remember them. Their names are the same as they were in my memory, but they are no longer archaeologists. Instead, they are employees of the Arasaka Corporation whose specific job duties are unknown.]

As the child of a corporate slacker, I live a relatively comfortable life. I rely on the money my parents send me to get by, and I can even go to the most prestigious university in Night City.

Although the technology in this world is very advanced and his parents can transfer money directly to Lu Mingfei's personal account, because Lu Mingfei was too young at the time, he was handed over to his aunt and uncle in this world for upbringing, and the money was also transferred to them.

Elite schools.

Send someone under the fence.

It seems that no matter which world, Lu Mingfei cannot escape such a fate.

However, there is still a crucial element missing to become Lu Mingfei - a girl he longs for but cannot get.

It really does.

In the first half of the thick diary, most of it was "Night City Lu Mingfei" telling about a girl he accidentally saw running at night. The girl had short silver hair, red eye shadow, and a slim figure. She was like a light that illuminated his world.

This might be the 'Chen Wenwen' of this world - but Lu Mingfei no longer has any interest in his own Chen Wenwen, let alone his previous sweetheart.

On July 3rd, Lu Mingfei, who played in the first episode, felt conflicted after reading the diary.

Unlike the original world, the aunt and uncle in this world changed the transfer account to Lu Mingfei after Lu Mingfei turned sixteen, and then took the money they had saved and flew away to another city.

So Lu Mingfei didn't have anyone he was familiar with, and this world was so strange that it was disgusting.

Lu Mingfei read the information several times and finally came to the conclusion that this world was quite similar to a science fiction genre called "cyberpunk" that he had seen in movies.

High technology and low living standards coexist, madness yet order.

By the way, in this kind of science fiction-themed movies, the protagonists often have a bad time.

A normal person would be in the room in a state of depression and panic, covering his head with a quilt. When he was hungry, he would rummage through the drawers to find some liquid food, eat it, and then vomit it out.

But with Lu Mingfei's personality, he was only scared for a few days, or even a short while.

After all, his name is Lu Mingfei!
A Q cosplay contest champion, the best in psychological counseling, heartless and like a weight, nothing can defeat him except a broken heart!

Just another world! Just cyberpunk! Lu Mingfei could easily use his own inexplicable youth pain to surpass it! Insult it!
First of all - although I traveled through time, I not only broke free from the control of my aunt and uncle, but also had a room of my own!

This is a victory.

Secondly, even though I've traveled through time, the timeframe remains the same. In other words, I have 48 hours a day. If I were to spend them internally, why wouldn't the outstanding graduates of Shilan Middle School be someone like me? Copying cyberpunk black technology, damn it! "Student Master Lu Mingfei's Black Technology System," a grand series!

This is the second victory.

Finally, although I traveled through time, in this world, my parents at least still write to me frequently, and they will be back soon, so I can be considered a child with both a father and a mother!
This is a great victory!

win!
Winning too much!

Although Lu Mingfei looks unlucky, his only real advantage is that he is heartless.

But. why?

Why is Lu Mingfei, who left this cyberpunk world, so afraid of it? Why does he even say goodbye so solemnly to all the people important to him when he is about to travel back?

The answer will be revealed in the diary of the next day.

July 4th

That day, Lu Mingfei 'recalled'.

The terror of being dominated by this world called cyberpunk, and... the humiliation of being imprisoned in a birdcage.

As Lu Mingfei mustered up his courage, he unexpectedly used his modified brain skillfully to look through the mailbox in his mind.

He saw the last one.

".Why?"

The journey took less than a week.

The horse is gone.
