"Don't leave our sight until then," Zhang Chulan said.

This kind of thing is for Xu San and Xu Si to worry about; he doesn't want to get involved in such trivial matters and needs to focus on cultivating to prepare for the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony.

"Thank you, Master Zhang." Lu Mingfei sat obediently to the side.

"Just call me Zhang Chulan. I feel uncomfortable when people call me a hero."

"Ok."

Although being treated like a rare species by Feng Baobao was a little uncomfortable, it saved me from the danger of being hit by Feng Baobao with an entrenching tool.

Zhang Chulan glanced at the "Novel Illustration" on the ground and gave up the idea of ​​picking it up.

He told Xu Si everything he had extracted from Lu Mingfei.

"What? Someone from six years ago has appeared six years later, and he's even a member of an American superhuman organization."

"Are you sure you're not mistaken? Spanning six years of time and space, even the Old Master couldn't do that. This isn't a novel, how could something so fantastical exist?"

Xu Si sounded very surprised, clearly not believing Zhang Chulan's words.

"Furthermore, there is no university-type superhuman organization like Kassel College in Chicago, USA. There is, however, a superhuman organization, but it is not called Kassel College."

"Is he brainwashed? Or is he mentally ill, or delusional?"

Zhang Chulan responded:

"No, he looks perfectly normal..."

“Alright, keep an eye on Lu Mingfei. I’ll investigate the people he mentioned, such as Qiao Weini, Lu Lincheng, and Lu Gucheng.”

Lu Mingfei sensed a special power within his body while Zhang Chulan was reporting.

A countdown appeared in the corner of my eye.

The countdown in The Three-Body Problem is similar to Wang Miao's, but it's not as frightening.

It looks insignificant, hanging alone at the edge of the field of vision.

He calculated the countdown time himself.

It's about a 29-day countdown.

Could this countdown be the countdown to the end of his life?

He felt incredibly healthy. Could it be that someone had cast a curse on him, a cyberpunk-style curse that was torturing him relentlessly with a countdown timer?

"Um, I wanted to ask, has the Trisolaran world invaded?"

The Three-Body world's invasion wouldn't trigger a countdown for someone as insignificant as him.

"Whether or not there is an invasion is not something we ordinary people can worry about. Let's talk about your business first."

After hearing Xu Si's news, Zhang Chulan became curious about Lu Mingfei's appearance.

Whether it's the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, the Multiverse, or a mentally ill patient, clues and hints will eventually emerge after investigation.

Lu Mingfei felt that he was overthinking things. How could he not know about such a big thing as the Three-Body world's invasion? Someone must be playing a prank on him.

This countdown may also be a countdown for his return to his original world.

He responded to Zhang Chulan with a pained expression:

"I've told you everything I know and everything I don't know. You even know who I have a crush on, and you even know what color underwear I like. Do I still have any secrets from you?"

"Yeah, that's true. I was just doing my job, Brother Lu, don't mind. Have a smoke to calm down." Zhang Chulan took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to Lu Mingfei, holding the lighter close to his face.

Lu Mingfei involuntarily took a step back.

"I don't smoke."

"Oh, okay, Brother Lu, have some candy." Zhang Chulan quickly stuffed the cigarette back into his pocket and handed Lu Mingfei some chewing gum.

This time, Lu Mingfei did not refuse, but simply accepted the food without eating it.

My aunt said: Don't eat anything given to you by strangers.

He didn't even smell the chewing gum; he just put it in his pocket.

Zhang Chulan asked, "Brother Lu, what would you like to drink?"

"Cola, please."

"Okay, here you go."

Lu Mingfei took the Coke and confirmed that it was unopened.

Zhang Chulan looked at the message Xu Si had sent on his phone, which would arrive shortly.

He sat to the side, staring intently at Lu Mingfei.

Feng Baobao looked at the well-behaved Lu Mingfei, then suddenly widened her eyes, made a fist with one hand and a palm with the other, and pounded her fist on her palm.

"I've got it! I have a way to avoid having to watch Lu Mingfei or worry about him running away."

"Sister Bao'er, what brilliant idea have you come up with this time?"

"Bury Lu Mingfei, leaving only his head exposed. Not only will we not have to worry about him running away, but we also won't need anyone to watch over him. It's a win-win situation."

"And the pit I dug before will come in handy."

After speaking, Feng Baobao picked up the entrenching tool again and walked towards Lu Mingfei.

"Sister Bao'er, I think you just want to bury someone alive. Xu Si will be here soon, there's no need to bury anyone!"

Zhang Chulan lunged forward and grabbed Feng Baobao, who was walking towards Lu Mingfei.

"Sister Bao'er, just calm down for a bit! Aren't you worried about getting an upset stomach after eating something of unknown origin?"

"It's nothing, I'm perfectly fine."

The villa's door was kicked open.

A man walked in with a cigarette in his mouth.

The man had short, fluffy white hair, a stubble beard, and a very unconventional style of dress; he looked to be in his thirties or forties.

Which one is Lu Mingfei? Let me tell you, you're in trouble. Your parents are international fugitives, and that Kassel College is an American cult. You're the son of a fugitive and a candidate for the cult.

"How dare you operate within our country's territory! You're dead, Lu Mingfei!"

Chapter 3: If you do not abandon me, I will not wish to become your godfather. (Please continue reading and add to your favorites)

"What makes you think my parents are internationally wanted criminals?"

Although Lu Mingfei had not seen his parents for many years, his feelings for them remained.

This time he stood firm, his eyes seemed to hold the power of a lion, and in the eyes of that lion seemed to hold the spirit of Lu Mingfei.

Is Kassel a cult?

How could such a beautiful girl like Nono be a member of a cult?

"Don't you believe me? Once I've convinced you, I'll arrest you and torture you severely." Xu Si approached Lu Mingfei step by step.

"Your parents haven't contacted you for many years, right?"

"Yes, but they are archaeologists, isn't it their job to travel all over the world?"

"Wanted criminals also travel all over the world to avoid being caught."

“They sent me money, and they asked my aunt’s family to take care of me. Fugitives don’t send money home.”

"Even wanted criminals can send money home. Have you ever seen a wanted criminal contact their family? Have you ever seen an archaeologist who hasn't contacted their family for years? Have you ever seen an archaeologist who has the time to send money but not the time to contact them? Have you ever seen the research results of your archaeologist parents?"

This series of questions made Lu Mingfei back away repeatedly. The heroic image of his parents in his heart was gradually tainted by the words of the middle-aged man in front of him.

People from Kassel College had once brought him news of his parents, who were not like that.

He persisted in his rebuttal.

"What does that prove? That's just how my parents are."

"So your parents are wanted criminals. Because your parents are wanted criminals, your uncle and aunt can embezzle your parents' child support money at will without worrying about retaliation from your parents. Because your parents are internationally wanted criminals, that's why a cult called Kassel approached you and made you, the son of a cult, join the cult."

"How is this possible!" Lu Mingfei felt as if his logic had been violated.

The more I thought about what the middle-aged man in front of me had said, the more plausible all my guesses seemed.

Through constant mental contemplation and recollection, he seemed to recall that someone had been quietly observing him since he was a child.

Could those be the government's informants?

Could it be that my parents are really international fugitives?

Could it be that Kassel College is really a cult...?

Lu Mingfei fell into deep self-doubt.

"Alright, Xu Si, stop teasing him. He's already stupid enough. Go get him a bottle of water." Xu San's voice rang out from behind Xu Si.

Xu San wore black-rimmed glasses and a meticulously tailored suit.

Lu Mingfei's eyes were glazed over, his limbs were stiff, and his eyes twitched...

Xu Si said, "He's really not easy to tease. With this kind of mental fortitude, he calls himself S-level? I think he has more like S-level delusions."

As he spoke, he took a bottle of calming drink from the refrigerator, unscrewed it, and handed it to Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei subconsciously took the drink, put a sip in his mouth, and soon calmed down from his panic.

But some frustration still lingered in my heart.

Although I know Xu Si's story about the wanted criminal is false, all of his parents' actions...

The situation was similar to what Xu Si had described.

Feng Baobao's empty eyes reflected Lu Mingfei's pained expression.

He put down the entrenching tool in his hand.

Sitting next to Lu Mingfei, he raised his hand and gently stroked Lu Mingfei's head.

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't hurt anymore."

For some reason, after being gently stroked by Feng Baobao, Lu Mingfei felt much of the pent-up frustration dissipate.
