Volume 1 Hello, Lu Mingfei Chapter 59 Blue Bird (I)
It was late at night, room 303 of dormitory building 1 at Kassel College.
The college only uses double dormitories with Nordic modern style home decoration, bunk beds of different heights, and wardrobes hidden in the walls. At first glance, this does not look like a college dormitory, but more like a sophisticated apartment hotel.
Lu Mingfei was sitting on a high stool gnawing on a chicken leg. On the table in front of her was a new laptop that she had bought with the money she had saved over the years.
She logged into the Night Watchman Forum, the internal forum website of Kassel College, and the news that Zero told her was prominently listed at the top of the homepage.
[Gunfire Roses! The crown of a free day belongs to the S-rank beautiful girl! ! ! ]
A huge headline, in bright red bold, with three exclamation marks to increase the sense of shock, is a classic puppy tactic.
Below is a large-size photo of Lu Mingfei. God knows where Finkel got the photo of her heroic figure fighting against the crowd in the Internet cafe. What's even more weird is that the angle of the photo is extremely subtle. The special post-processing makes the girl, who was originally ordinary and only scored 5 or 6 points, look absolutely beautiful. At the same time, she has the gracefulness of Lin Daiyu and the charm of Hua Mulan. Coupled with the group of enthusiastic onlookers around her, this scene does not look like playing a game, but ordinary teenagers under the leadership of Lu Mingfei are listening to the big sister's enthusiastic lecture.
In addition, there were student ID, dormitory number, age, hometown, hobbies, and even measurements. Lu Mingfei herself didn't know the exact values of her measurements! How the hell did Finger know? What was even more maddening was that at the end, he even kindly noted: single! He also bolded and reddened these two words with a big frame.
The comments section below had mixed opinions, with some saying that the new S-class was actually a strong and handsome super beautiful girl, and that she would be the first to rush up and push her down; some saying that the photo was so highly photoshopped that the powder on her face was about to fall off; and some saying that this person clearly had no presence in high school, yet he was able to beat Caesar and Chu Zihang, and that he must have used cheats.
The reply with the highest number of likes reads: Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang had an ambiguous relationship in high school. No wonder Chu Zihang did not accept any good intentions from girls at Kassel College. These two people are obviously a perfect match, but they just didn't announce it. In this case, it seems nothing surprising that Chu Zihang helped his future daughter-in-law win a day of freedom? Of course, the husband was willing to help hold Caesar back, and then acted to let his wife burst with a bullet.
There are so many details and rich content, which makes people think. In just a few sentences, the friendship of the past and present years has been condensed into a couple drama that Chu Zihang and Lu Mingfei have painstakingly created. It would be a pity if this man with such a superb imagination did not become a screenwriter.
“Who is this paparazzi?” This reply was signed by the same person as the editor of the article above, both of them are the Flame Demon Poet, and there is even an administrator mark next to the avatar.
"Fingal von Frings, head of the news department of the student union, the king of paparazzi at Kassel College, your best senior. It is said that he knows everything from the underwear size of the class beauty to the illegitimate son of the vice-president. If he reveals all the gossip he knows, the whole of Kassel will be in chaos." Ling was lying on the upper bunk, half leaning against the quilt, with a textbook titled "Dragon Genes and Bloodline Development Theory" on his knees.
"He promised me that he wouldn't say anything nonsense!" Lu Mingfei covered her face with her hands. If she had known earlier, she should not have said such nonsense as Chu Zihang is my boyfriend. Now the whole world knows it, including Chu Zihang himself... He probably didn't expect that Lu Mingfei had already planned his life partner for the next few decades without him knowing.
"Asking Finkel to keep his mouth shut is like throwing a piece of fat meat to a wolf's mouth and not letting him eat it." Ling said calmly, "He makes a living by doing this. What do you think an eighth-grade student needs to rely on to get a place on campus?"
"You only started school one day earlier than me...why do you seem to know everything?" Lu Mingfei murmured.
"I attended preparatory school in China. I didn't do nothing when I arrived earlier than you. I learned about all the places I could go and all the people I could get to know. You can find all kinds of records from many years ago on the Night Watcher forum. If you pay attention, you will know the celebrities on campus."
"No wonder you were so calm during the entrance counseling. In fact, you already knew what path you were taking." Lu Mingfei suddenly realized that Ling was already a veteran driver, and she was the only ignorant little white rabbit.
Zero put down the book, "How do you feel as the winner of Freedom Day?"
"What's there to feel? I'm satisfied as long as I eat well, drink well and sleep well." Lu Mingfei sucked the chicken bones clean. It is better to live a miserable life than to die. Since the secret has been made public, it is better to let nature take its course instead of worrying about it. There will always be a way.
"You are now a celebrity on campus. No girl has ever won Freedom Day before. As the first person to do so, you not only did it, but also killed the most dazzling Caesar and Chu Zihang with two shots. I think everyone's attention is on you tonight, your every move, your past, your words and deeds. They are eager to know everything. The new S-Class is already Cassel's Guns N' Roses. "
“Please stop saying that nickname!” Lu Mingfei put her hands together and bowed to Ling Yi earnestly. “To be honest, I didn’t think that much. I just wanted to win the Free Day and get the reward .”
"Do you like Norton Hall?" Zero asked.
"What Norton House?" Lu Mingfei didn't understand.
"The winner of Freedom Day will get the right to use Norton Hall for one year. It's the largest hall in Cassel College. In the past few years, the student union has always won, so Caesar used Norton Hall as the student union's territory. Now that you win, they have to move." Zero said.
"Oh... I just care about the right to pursue someone for three months..." Lu Mingfei said, scratching his head.
"Do you have someone you want to pursue?" Girls always seem to like gossip, and Ling is no exception. Although there is still not much fluctuation, she asked a little anxiously.
"I guess... I have some crush on him..." When she said this, Chu Zihang's handsome face popped up in her mind. Lu Mingfei felt her face getting a little hot, and she whispered like a mosquito, "Don't they say that the winner can pursue someone for three months, and the other party can't refuse... I want to try and see how he sees me, and whether there is a chance."
"It's just that you can't refuse publicly for three months. After three months, if that person doesn't like you, he or she can still kick you away and not treat you well." Ling's words were fiery.
"Don't be so heartless! I think I still have a chance!" Lu Mingfei said subconsciously, "Besides, it's just a try. I won't say that I like him because I use this opportunity. I just say that since I got this opportunity, I can't waste it. Let's just make do with it so that we don't always get missed by others."
"Your attitude is like a groom who arrives at the bridal chamber and turns around and says he doesn't want to get married before he even lifts the veil." Ling seemed to be quite dissatisfied with Lu Mingfei's cowardly mentality. "If you really like someone, then be bold and say it and get close to him. If you don't stand by him seriously, how do you know if he will like you? There is no such thing as making do, there is only wanting or not wanting."
Ling was sitting on the upper bunk, looking down at her. Lu Mingfei inexplicably felt that Ling was a little excited when she said this, which was rare for her usually calm face.
Maybe that sentence wasn't just for herself? Ling was also speaking to herself, because she had some regrets and therefore understood things like feelings.
Who can win the favor of a girl like Ling? Lu Mingfei couldn't imagine it at all. In her limited life, the top boys she had met seemed to be Chu Zihang, Zhao Menghua, and Caesar, but none of them were suitable for Ling. If Ling liked someone, she would definitely be the kind of person who would treat him wholeheartedly and silently. You could not feel her presence at ordinary times, but when you had difficulties and needs, Ling would definitely appear by your side quietly with solutions. This was probably the kind of girl who was a top-notch helper.
If someone could be with Zero, they would die of happiness, right?!
The soul of gossip was ready to move, and Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up: "Is there anyone you have a slight crush on?"
Zero glanced at her, then retracted his gaze and stared at the book, avoiding this sensitive question with such decisive silence.
"Stingy." Lu Mingfei muttered softly when she saw someone on the Night Watchman Forum had sent her a private message. Compared to other IDs, Lu Mingfei's ID was easy to identify and there was no hidden meaning at all. It was just her name, Lu Mingfei, in three big characters, so it was easy to find her.
She received many private messages tonight, some praising, some abusing, and some asking to make friends. She read them many times and just let them go, but this private message made her heart move.
"Are you still awake? Do you want to go out for dinner together? - ID: Murasame."
She might not know the principal, Caesar, or even her own professor's ID, but she knew this ID clearly before she logged into the forum. This was Chu Zihang's ID. The name Murasame came from the Japanese sword in his hand. This was what Ling told her.
The moonlight tonight turned out to be so beautiful. Lu Mingfei grabbed her coat, got up and went out, her steps as brisk as a deer in the woods.
It was already late at night and the restaurant was quiet. This Baroque-style hall could accommodate 1,000 people dining at the same time, but there was only one guest at this moment.
In front of Chu Zihang was a fried egg, a cup of cereal with milk and a glass of orange juice. In comparison, the seat opposite him was much more luxurious, with a whole fried chicken, a beef burger, a large portion of mashed potatoes, fragrant chicken nuggets and a cola, which was roughly equivalent to a KFC family meal.
In Chu Zihang's life experience, inviting girls to dinner has always been a very simple matter. He only needs to ask, and 99% of the time he will get an agreement. The remaining 1% is that the other party really has something to do. He remembered that the girls of Shilan Middle School loved to eat fast food when they had dinner together. Compared with those stylish restaurants, the cheerful and free atmosphere in fast food restaurants is the most suitable place to play. According to this memory, he ordered all fast food for Lu Mingfei, and he ate very little and ordinary food according to his habit.
He rarely came to the restaurant for supper, usually he would take an egg and ham sandwich from the restaurant during dinner and eat it in the dormitory as a supper. His life was as precise as a mechanical watch, and his time was well planned. It took him 15 minutes to go to and from the restaurant to eat, and he would rather spend these 15 minutes in the library.
But today was an exception. After experiencing the baptism of a free day, neither the Lionheart Club nor the Student Union was very happy, because the winner did not belong to any of them. They had already thought about how to hold a celebration party in the restaurant to show off, but now they could only go back to the dormitory and eat hamburgers and cry alone, wondering what went wrong.
As the leader of the Lionheart Society, Chu Zihang didn't mind failure. He appeared here only because he woke up from anesthesia late and saw the paparazzi post edited by Finkel. Considering that Lu Mingfei had just enrolled, Chu Zihang felt that as the senior who invited her to Kassel, he needed to talk to her alone. One was to congratulate her on her formal enrollment, and the other was to tell her not to take it too seriously.
Many people who are not familiar with him think he is cold and expressionless, but in essence Chu Zihang is a warm man who cares about a lot of things and does a lot of things, just like the gossipy girl next door.
The door of the restaurant creaked open, and the cheerful classmate Xiaolu immediately became obedient the moment she stepped into the restaurant. She was of course very happy that her senior brother invited her to have dinner and get together, but the problem was that she had just shot her senior brother with a pistol today, and she felt indescribable awkwardness when they met now.
Chu Zihang obviously didn't care about this question. He raised his hand to signal Lu Mingfei to sit opposite him.
Faced with her own luxurious fast food and her senior brother's simple midnight snack, Lu Mingfei was on pins and needles. She felt that this was like a Hongmen Banquet. Her senior brother must have come to call her to task, because it has always been an iron rule for heroes that women are not allowed to interfere in a duel between men. However, she attacked from behind with a small pistol and knocked down two heroes with two shots. The heroes must have felt very aggrieved.
“I’m sorry, Brother!” Lu Mingfei clasped his hands together and raised them high, his head almost lowered to the dust.
"What is there to apologize for?" Chu Zihang didn't quite understand.
"I shot you to death during the day..." As soon as Lu Mingfei said this, she wanted to slap herself twice. What she said was too rude.
"Any student in Cassel has the right to participate in Freedom Day and is eligible to win the championship. People usually don't care about the means. There are only winners in war, not despicable villains. I don't think you have anything to apologize to me for. You did a good job. If I were in your position and survived to the end, I would also choose to kill you and Caesar with two shots." Chu Zihang pushed the iced cola in front of Lu Mingfei. "I wanted to drink, but it's late. Even in the academy, I can't cultivate bad habits for you. Congratulations on your admission."
Chu Zihang naturally raised his orange juice to clink glasses. Lu Mingfei was very touched and thought to herself that a senior brother is a senior brother! Not only did he put aside past grudges, but he also cared about her daily life. This kind of friendship was worth a thousand gold. She didn't have a thousand gold, so she had to find a way to repay him with her body in the future!
