The taxi drove steadily on the road. Hayashi River's reminiscence didn't last long. Nanluo Tower came into view in the distance.
As a landmark of Nanluo City, the traffic in the vicinity wasn't congested. It wasn't because there weren't enough cars, but because the road was wide enough.
There were also intersecting passageways when there was a jam. Once there was a jam, it would be automatically activated.
Coupled with the traffic police's assistance in shifts, the traffic here was very smooth.
The taxi stopped at the fountain square in front of Nanluo Tower. Hayashi River got out of the car and looked at Lu Xiong, who was lying on the lawn and looking up at the sky.
"Old Bear, aren't you afraid of scaring the kid by lying there?" Hayashi River said with a smile.
"Chuan, you're finally here. I've been waiting for half an hour. "
Lu Xiong stood up abruptly, opened his arms, and hugged his best friend. He patted Hayashi River's back, causing the latter to feel a wave of pain.
"Stop patting me, you'll kill me …" Hayashi River shouted.
Lu Xiong smiled and let go, revealing his burly figure. Compared to a year ago, he was two times thicker.
The change in his figure was secondary. Lu Xiong had a ferocious and intimidating aura.
Moreover, Lu Xiong's Psychic Force had also reached Stage 3 Heart Warrior.
Stage 2 Stage 3!
Force Accumulation!
Hayashi River rubbed his shoulder and back. On the surface, he was complaining about Lu Xiong's strength, but he was secretly surprised. His best friend's strength had improved a bit too quickly!
Originally, according to his estimation, Lu Xiong's strength had broken through Stage 2 a few days ago.
However, Lu Xiong's strength was much higher than his estimation. This was a bit strange.
"Chuan, you're not good enough! You don't seem to have improved much in the past year. "
Lu Xiong sized up Hayashi River and shook his head. "It seems that your Psychic Force cultivation has been delayed. Why is your Psychic Force only Stage 7?"
"Is Psychic Force 7-dan not enough? I was only at the fourth stage of Psychic Force a year ago. Besides, I'm a mechanic. Why should I focus on cultivation? My current strength is already not weak among my peers, okay? "
Hayashi River jokingly scolded.
"An ordinary person of the same age," Lu Xiong emphasized.
Hayashi River smiled and shook his head. His best friend was indeed from the army. He already had some of the characteristics of a soldier.
The way he looked at the people around him was always measured by the standards of the army.
This was not strange at all. On the contrary, it was a good thing. This meant that Lu Xiong had already integrated into the army.
The two of them walked side by side towards the entrance of Nanluo Plaza. Lu Xiong lowered his voice and asked, "Ah Chuan, where are those beauties from before? Are you still in contact? "
Lu Xiong had been restraining himself, but in the end, he could no longer hold it in. Over the past year, they had only contacted each other a few times. He was very curious about Hayashi River's female companion in their video calls.
"What beauty? She's just a client. "
Hayashi River glanced at him and thought to himself, This guy is really a man. He's still thinking about her even at this time.
"Will the client feed you fruits personally?"
Lu Xiong's eyes widened. He had a deep impression of the figure of the creamy skin beauty in their first video call. Even a fool could see that their relationship was not ordinary.
"Ah Chuan. Ask those beautiful clients of yours. Do they have beautiful girlfriends? Let's get to know the top students of Lajo City. "
Looking at Lu Xiong's winking expression, Hayashi River had a lot to complain about. However, he didn't complain too much. He only said, "Have you forgotten about Ai Yun so quickly? She's here today, and you're already thinking about other women? "
As expected, when Lu Xiong heard this, his face immediately fell. He said, "You brat, don't mention it …"
'You brat still can't forget …'
Hayashi River shook his head. He thought that after a year, Lu Xiong's feelings for Ai Yun would change. Unexpectedly, it didn't.
Walking into Nanluo Tower, the two followed the address and went to the restaurant on the third floor. They saw Cai Yun at the door.
"You're finally here."
Cai Yun's eyes lit up when he saw Hayashi River and Lu Xiong. He quickly walked up to them and shook hands with Lu Xiong and Hayashi River.
"Monitor. We haven't seen each other for more than a year. You've become more handsome, "Hayashi River said.
"Cai Ban. You've become more glib, "Lu Xiong said in a low voice.
"You two only know how to make fun of me …"
Cai Yun smiled and told them where the restaurant was so that Lin Chuan and Lu Xiong could go there themselves.
Hayashi River found that Cai Yun's attitude toward him and Lu Xiong was the same.
He didn't know if it was because the two had a good chat on the airship or because Cai Yun's attitude toward people had really reached this level.
If that was the case, Cai Yun was really something.
Once they entered the cafeteria, Lu Xiong tugged at Lin Chuan's arm and whispered, "Help me out later. Let the snobs in class see how I'm doing now."
Hayashi River smiled and nodded. He knew what Lu Xiong was thinking. Back in the academy, Lu Xiong was talked about behind his back because he was a half-beast. It seemed like this guy had always kept it in his heart.
But it was normal. If it was Hayashi River, he would also keep it in his heart.
Hayashi River and Lu Xiong went to find the location. In a corner of the hall, they saw their long-lost classmates. More than half of them were already there.
"Hayashi River. Here … "
"Ah-Chuan. Come here! "
…
Several people stood up and waved at Hayashi River. There were sports committee members, daily affairs committee members, and study committee members …
This scene made Lin Chuan appear to be very popular. But that was indeed the case. During their time in the academy, there was no one who didn't want to repair machines. As the president of the maintenance club, Lin Chuan was naturally popular.
Because of this, Hayashi River's days in the academy were really leisurely.
He walked up and greeted many classmates. Some people even warmly shook hands with Hayashi River.
"It's only been a year and you've already learned this. Shouldn't you give me a hug …"
Hayashi River looked at the lifestyle committee member. She was one of the top beauties in the class. After not seeing her for a year, the freckles on her nose had disappeared, making her beauty even more dazzling.
"Go to hell, Hayashi River. You've become bad. You know how to take advantage of girls."
The lifestyle committee member glared at him, but she wasn't angry. Instead, she was happy. It wasn't that she was interested in Hayashi River, but this young man's attitude was inexplicably amiable.
The surrounding students took advantage of the commotion and only quieted down when Lu Xiong sat down.
It wasn't that they were afraid of Lu Xiong. During their time in the academy, although Lu Xiong was aggressive, he was still a member of the external class and had always been friendly to his classmates.
It was just that the aura that Lu Xiong emitted made the students uncomfortable.
Compared to others, Lu Xiong had changed a lot in the past year. He was like a sharpened blade that was faintly shining.
"Lu Xiong, I heard that you're doing well in Lajo …" someone asked.
"Of course …"
Hayashi River smiled. "During Lu Xiong's training camp, he went through four months of closed-door special training."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. If it was some insider information, they might not know too much.
But regarding the training camp, they were all too clear.
When he graduated, Lu Xiong had joined the military headquarters in Lajo City, which was one of the best training camps in the military headquarters below the provincial level.
In such a training camp, the best treatment was closed-door special training.
This meant that one had talent and was valued by the training camp's commanding officer, which would lead to resources.
Normally, such closed-door special training lasted one to one and a half months. If there were two months, it was great news. It meant that after the training camp ended, there was an 80 to 90% chance that one could stay in the local area.
As for the four-month closed-door special training, this treatment was a bit harsh. Everyone knew what his future would be like …
"Lu Xiong. Are you staying in the military in Lajo now? "the sports committee member asked.
"Yes. Second Lieutenant. "
Lu Xiong's answer was concise and comprehensive.
Instantly, the students quieted down. They looked at Lu Xiong with complicated gazes that contained all sorts of emotions.
A year after graduation, the gap between the students was suddenly widened because of the word "Second Lieutenant."
Lin Chuan looked around. When he saw that the atmosphere was a little gloomy, he gave Lu Xiong a look, hinting to him that it was enough. Lu Xiong had already put on an act, and if he continued, the students would start complaining.
Lu Xiong understood tacitly. He smiled and raised his cup to toast the students. Only then did the atmosphere lighten up.
"Oh right. Why are we sitting in the hall? Are there no more private rooms? "
Hayashi River looked around and asked curiously. Although it was difficult to book a table in Nanluo Building, with Cai Yun's connections with the aristocrats in the class, could they not even get a private room?
As soon as he said that, the students in the hall quieted down. Their expressions were a bit ugly. The atmosphere suddenly froze.
Hayashi River thought to himself. No way. What happened?
The lifestyle committee member drew closer to Lin Chuan. Her loose clothes accentuated her graceful figure, and she whispered the reason to Lin Chuan.
"Our Monitor offended someone …"
