Know Yourself in the Dragon World

Chapter 479 Someone Under the Bed (2)

"Sure, why are you so nervous?" Nono said.

After Caesar came in, he looked around and closed the window tightly.

He still seemed a little worried and asked, "There are no bugs in your room, right?"

"Of course not, why do you look so scared?" Nuonuo was puzzled.

"I'm not afraid." Caesar pulled a chair to the bed and sat down, lowering his voice and saying, "If the elders knew that we knew about this but didn't report it, we would be punished. I would even lose my position as a school director."

In Nono's impression, Caesar is not a fearful person. He is not afraid even of powerful dragons, let alone power.

"Are you sure you are Caesar?" Nuonuo stretched out his hand and pinched Caesar's face, "You don't look like it..."

"How is it different?" Caesar was stunned.

"These words don't sound like something you could say," said Nono.

Caesar smiled bitterly: "There is no other way. If I want to help Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang and participate in these things, I can't lose my status as a school director."

A real man can bend and stretch. In the past, Caesar didn’t know what bending meant, so he was just a middle school boy.

Now that he knew, he had completed his evolution and became a real man.

"You want both..." Sometimes Nuonuo really felt that Caesar was no longer Caesar.

It seemed that after returning from Japan, Caesar's excessive pride evolved into something else.

"This is not a parallel relationship, it's a progressive relationship," Caesar explained.

"Well, you're a speaker, and I can't argue with you. What are you trying to do by sneaking over here?"

"Let's talk about Han Qiu. He should have talked to you before, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have helped him hide it." Caesar urged, "Tell me, what happened?"

"I don't know where to begin."

"The most direct one is his purpose." Caesar asked, "The purpose of his coming to the United States and the purpose of coming to the Chen family."

"My cousin asked him for help, and what he wanted to do overlapped with what my cousin asked." Nuonuo explained, "This matter is also related to me, and it is related to some past events. His purpose of coming to the Chen family is to investigate those past events, about me, about my mother, and the death of Chen Bailing's father."

"Are all these things related to one thing?" Caesar didn't know about Nono's past.

"Pretty much. It's basically my mom's business. Didn't I tell you that?"

"You said you saw your mother's soul being hooked away."

"Yes, when I was a kid I thought it was the Black and White Impermanence. In fact I knew the matter was not that simple, but I never cared about it. However, Chen Bailing's father was dealt with by the family because he investigated this matter, so he must care more about it than I do." Nuo Nuo said.

Caesar understood, nodded and said, "Is Han Qiu investigating this matter simply because of Chen Bailing's request? Or...he wants to investigate this matter himself. This matter is so important that he has to seek the truth."

"The latter, Han Qiu meant that my mother's death might be related to dragons. I only opened my psychic vision when my mother died, and the conditions for psychic vision are inseparable from dragons. I said I don't care and I really don't care, but now the opportunity is in front of me, and I can't remain indifferent. This is why I help Han Qiu. At the same time, if I keep an eye on him, he won't kill innocent people."

"It has something to do with dragons..." Caesar murmured.

"There is another point related to this matter. Han Qiu said that there are traitors within the secret party, an entire family of traitors, who surrendered to the dragons to gain power." Nono added: "Although I don't know whether it is true or not."

"What is the basis for his judgment?"

Nuo Nuo crossed his legs, "Lu Mingfei and his companions were attacked by a group of Deadpools during their escape. Hundreds of Deadpools wanted to kill them. Xia Mi displayed the power of the King of the Earth and the Mountain, but it couldn't stop the madness of the Deadpools. According to Xia Mi's judgment, these Deadpools were not cultivated by the Ghosts, but were subservient to another Dragon King."

Caesar was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Nono was not surprised by Caesar's expression.

After a long silence, Caesar asked, "Can his words be trusted?"

"Who knows?" Nuonuo said, "I don't know either. After all, we don't know the situation on Lu Mingfei's side, and Xia Mi is also a dragon. It will take time to verify whether it is true or not."

"You trust him very much." Caesar didn't mean to be jealous, he was just simply worried.

"You also believe in Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang."

"It's not the same thing. Han Qiu's matter is a fact that has been set in stone, and his actions in helping Jörmungandr are certain. To put it bluntly, he is indeed a traitor, but the matter between Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang is questionable."

Nuonuo felt that this topic was becoming more and more interesting, and asked: "What if Lu Mingfei sits on his dragon identity and Chu Zihang stands on Lu Mingfei's side, what will you do, Caesar?"

Caesar was silent again, and he suddenly wanted to end the topic.

Nuo Nuo continued, "My trust in Han Qiu is not as great as your trust in Lu Mingfei and Caesar. I don't care about other things, but when it comes to my mother, I'm helping and supporting her, and also supervising her."

"Is this a common interest?" Caesar asked.

"That's it."

Caesar suddenly smiled, somewhat helplessly, "When they were in Japan, the Snake Eight Clan were also fooled into joining because of their common interests."

"That's because you don't have an obsession, Caesar. You told me that escaping from the control of the academy and getting rid of the White King's curse are the obsessions of the Snake Family. Once you have an obsession, even if the other party is a dragon, you will support it for a short time."

"About your mother..." Caesar hesitated, feeling that such words should not be said out loud.

Nuo Nuo still guessed what the second half of the sentence meant. She said, "It's part of my obsession. My real obsession is to figure out some things about myself, to figure out who I am... Maybe this statement seems a bit philosophical. What happened in the past two years, whether it's Han Qiu or Lu Mingfei, actually boils down to one question: are they humans or dragons, accomplices or traitors? I don't know my position, and I don't understand why I didn't shed a single tear when my mother left."

Caesar seemed to know the girl again, and a new page of the obscure book was turned.

"I understand what you mean." Caesar smiled and said, "Let me answer your question. If Lu Mingfei is confirmed to be a dragon, and Chu Zihang stands on Lu Mingfei's side, what will I choose?"

"Ok?"

"I will choose to protect them, to the best of my ability, like now. If you ask why, it's because I believe that even if they are dragons, they are not dragons in the sense that we understand them."

"Is this the relationship that has lasted through life and death for you?"

"Maybe. It's hard to explain, but I'm sure I will make this choice." Caesar said softly.
