Chapter 424: Family's Choice (Part II)
"Hey, Howl, why are you here, who is the person over there with Mr. Yanagi?"
It was a blonde lady with a graceful figure who was also a colleague of Hal's.
Now I don't pay attention to the set of superiors and subordinates and bosses' secretaries, this Ms. Fei Ling is Hal's partner rather than a subordinate, and the reason why the two work together is not because these two are a couple, but in the face of different negotiation opponents, the right person comes forward.
"Fei Ling, did you see how he appeared?"
"I didn't pay attention, I took a sip of coffee just now, and in a blink of an eye, I noticed that there was one more person among you, is he from the other side of the hills?" Fei Ling asked casually.
"Hehe, you may not believe what I said, he came out of thin air!"
Hal said as he sat down, clicking on his smart assistant and telling it to keep an eye on Yagyu and the island, and notify him as soon as the conversation was over.
Now this kind of intelligent terminal with a certain intelligence, usually accompanied by the owner in a virtual image, is already considered a standard for human beings.
"Of course I don't believe it, is that a virtual projection?"
"No, he's Mr. Kazushima's eldest son. β
"Hah! I originally heard that the Japanese attach great importance to etiquette, but now it seems that this is not the case, in an important business meeting, because the child came, let the partner waste time, this Mr. Yagyu and Shima - what do you say!
In the middle of speaking, the blonde lady Fei Ling suddenly reacted, and stood up with a 'poof', almost overturning the small round table between the two.
Coffee spilled.
"Is it the Sword Saint of the East, Yanagi Yuanhe, who is back?" Fei Ling asked impatiently.
"Ahem, I said Fei Ling, I want to remind you of one thing-"
"No, no, no, there is nothing more important now than the return of the Sword Saint of the East!Is it really him?"
"Hmm- I think so, Mr. Wajima doesn't mistake his son, and coming out of the air is like- it's like traveling through space, I don't think the average person can do such a thing. Fei Ling, I want to remind you of one thing-"
"Oh my God! he's back, it'sβit'sβ" The blonde's hands trembled, and she lowered her head and hurriedly reached out to pull out the smart terminal from her chest.
"Ahh
"Halββ!" Fei Ling hurriedly pulled out a tissue while viciously kicking Hal on the opposite side.
"Hey, Fei Ling, you can't blame me for this, I wanted to remind you twice. Hal shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands out, indicating that I really tried to warn you, but you interrupted me.
"You bastard, I originally wanted to divide half of you, but now you go to die, it's all my credit!"
Liu Shengyuan and the expedition to the sea of stars are not a secret on the earth, but this matter is very important, and in order to avoid a major impact on the concept of the earthlings, this matter has not appeared in any news media.
However, in recent years, a large number of movies and cartoons with interstellar civilization as the background have appeared, which can be regarded as a preventive shot for the people of various countries.
Fei Ling heard about this by chance from a scientist.
Fei Ling, who originally worked as a reporter, of course knew what Liu Shengyuan and his return from interstellar civilization meant to the earth.
News material of this level is more attractive than who the next Citi president isβin fact, whoever is the next Citi president, the real boss of Citi is the master of desire.
Even though he has gone to the moon to concentrate on scientific research and fight for the well-being of mankind, he is still the undisputed king of Citi in both religion and society.

"Dad, that's all my experience over the years. β
Yanagi Yuanhe sat side by side with his father by the small lake (there are some small lakes in this golf course), and shared what he had seen and heard in the interstellar civilization over the years.
"Sounds really interesting, Motowa, can ordinary humans also do interstellar travel?" said Yagyu Kazushima, a little leisurely, as he stood up and searched the ground.
"Of course, Dad, what are you looking for?"
"Yuanhe, I still remember when you were a child, I took you to the river to play water rafting, and Dad could play more than a dozen water rafts at once! Now this place is so clean that you can't even find a stone. Yagyu and Shima were a little crying and laughing.
The golf course attaches great importance to the maintenance of the grounds, and this golf course uses intelligent robots produced by the Yanagi family, which work meticulously and never knows what laziness is. As a result, Yagyu and Mr. Shima can't even find a stone now.
"Ha, Dad, let's compare and see, now you may not be as good as me. Yanagi handed over a round stone.
"Ha, it's still your sharp eyes, I didn't find a single stone just now. It's not okay if you don't accept the old. β
"Dad, you can't talk about old age, this stone is not what I found on the ground. As he spoke, Liu Shengyuan and his empty hand opened again, and a ball of light in his palm came out of nothing, condensing into a stone that was exactly the same as the one he had just handed to his father.
Yanagi Kazushima stared at the stone in his son's palm, and then carefully at the stone in his hand.
No two leaves are the same, and by extension, no two stones are the sameβat least no two naturally occurring stones are the same.
But what is the matter with these two stones in front of me? There is no indication that they are man-made at all, and even the pattern on the surface and the lubrication in the palm of the hand seem to have been washed in the stream for an unknown number of years.
"Yuanhe, there is no one else here now, you tell me honestly, have you really become a god? Not a living god who was blown out like the emperor, but a real god like Amaterasu in Takamagahara!"
"Dad, if you follow the description of the gods in the legendary Takamagahara, hehe, to say it immodestly, my son should be much stronger than them now. β
Yanagi Yuanhe raised his left hand, rubbed his chin without half a beard, pondered for a while, and said unhurriedly.
"Hahahahaha, Yuanhe, after so many years, Dad almost forgot that you would brag. β
You know, the legends of the gods of Takamagahara, Japan, are similar to the creation legends of other countries in the world, and also include various myths and stories that created the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers of the earth.
No matter how awesome you are, can you still create a sun to come out?
Yanagi and Shima couldn't be happier, the last time they got along with their son so easily, it was when his son was in elementary school.
As he spoke, he bent sideways, pinched the stone with his thumb and forefinger, leaned back, and after his arms were about 45 degrees to his body, he twisted his waist and turned his arms to throw the stone out.
The moment he threw it, he pulled it hard with his index finger to speed up the rotation of the stone.
The stone flew like a rat on the surface of the water, leaving a series of circular ripples on the surface of the water.
"Twenty-nine, this is a great achievement, and it has broken the record of the Yanagi family!"
Yanagi Kazushima raised his arms and shouted vigorously: "Now I declare, Dad, I am not only the founder of the Yanagi family, but also the holder of the Yanagi family's water drifting record!"
"Son, it's your turn! Let Daddy see how much you claim to be stronger than a god!"
"Daddy, you've seen - uh-"
"Fifteen, Yuan He, you're still far away!"
"Impossible, come again!" yelled Yanagi.
"This time it's nineteen, and there's progress. But this is still far from Dad's grades. β
Ellipsis β
ββββββββββββββ
"Yuanhe, are you going to leave when you come back this time?"
After a day of drifting, Yanagi Kazushima was a little tired, he lay on the grass, looked at the twinkling starry sky in the sky, and suddenly asked.
"Dad, in a sense, I'm not leaving. Yanagi Yuanhe was lying next to his father, and the two of them were lying side by side on the grass.
In fact, during this time, the golf course has long since ceased to open for business.
The news of Liu Shengyuan and his return to Earth has long been placed on the desks of countless big people through various channels, and Liu Shengyuan and what he has done in the interstellar civilization over the years have also given people a glimpse through the information he transmitted, without the trouble of burning his eyebrows, who would dare to disturb his old man's interest in reuniting with his family?
"In a sense, not leaving? What does that mean?" Yagyu and Shima turned their heads to the side, looking at their son, who was becoming more and more unfathomable.
In the battle just now, Yagyu Kazushima finally won a big victory, hitting a maximum of forty-five water drifts at one time, once again defending his position as the holder of the Yagyu family's water drifting record.
However, he didn't think that this son of unprecedented kendo achievements couldn't even fight well.
"That's right, I can leave the clone to sit on Earth, and the main body to stay on Helto Planet, to build a bridgehead for Earth to step into interstellar civilization. The planet Herto, which is a concession that I have knocked down, is also one of the famous academic holy places of interstellar civilization, which is just right for earthlings to understand what interstellar society is like. β
"What? How far is the planet Herto?
"About one hundred and ninety-five light years. β
"βUh, son, aren't you bragging again?"
Yanagi and Shima couldn't believe their ears, and the clone was just that, his son was a martial arts master, and it was hard to say if there was such a terrifying supernatural power, but one hundred and ninety-five light years-
"No, I'll take you over and have fun then. By the way, Dad, have you ever thought about living longer?"
"Of course, Dad still wishes he could live forever! Dad hasn't had enough of this happy life now. By the way, Yuanhe, and your mother, how many more years can you let us live?"
In fact, he has long had doubts over the years.
By the time others reached his age (sixty-one), their bodies had obviously deteriorated, and not only did he look like a young man in his thirties, but he was no worse than those young people.
The old guys who started their own businesses together are already full of gray hair, and fierce sports such as jumping, basketball, and baseball have long been canceled from group activities, leaving only karaoke drinking tea and watching Noh dramas, and occasionally some travel, all of which are standard old man activities.
Not only him, but also his wife Masako. is almost sixty years old, and he still looks so young and beautiful, even more beautiful than when the two first got married.
"There are some rules, even if my son's current ability can be regarded as first-class in the entire universe, it is difficult to break them. Immortality is very difficult, and it is not just a matter of the body, but more of a soul. The soul can only rely on its own cultivation to improve its solidity, and there is nothing I can do at the moment. β
"Whew-"
Yagyu Kazushima let out a sigh of disappointment.
How can it be so easy to live forever? In Japanese legends, there are cases of people who have eaten mermaid meat and obtained immortality, but people with a little brains will not believe that kind of story.
"But I can still extend the life of you and your mother by a thousand or two thousand years. Yanagi Motokazu added.
"Whatββ! really?"
"Really, father, I'm not going to joke about it, but when we get home together, you can discuss it with your mother. I have several ways to do this, from 100 years to 2,000 years.
Dad, there is a lot of time, and we still have to be father and son for more than a thousand years, so don't be in a hurry, choose slowly, I will always stay on the earth and be by your side and my mother. β
