061 Caged Bird
The mourner opened his eyes in a daze, and what greeted him was an unfamiliar ceiling.
At this time, the mourner was lying on a snow-white bed, and he sniffed his nose vigorously, and the smell of disinfectant water was full of it.
The smell of disinfectant water... In this case, I should be in the hospital.
"Sato's family, wake up?"
Musuke's head tilted slightly to the side, and only then did he realize that there was a hospital bed next to him, and the black-haired young man lying on that bed was looking at him with a helpless expression.
Fu Zhu smiled slightly, but his tone of voice was unceremoniously, "I didn't expect you to survive, this is really a misfortune in luck." β
"Hey, hey, hey, you're wrong, it should be a blessing in misfortune. β
"Who knows. Musuke replied with a smile, his gaze on the ceiling again.
"Who can say clearly, at this time, the daimyo has changed, and it is unfortunate or fortunate that you will inherit the position of the daimyo before the coming-of-age ceremony... Haidong Big Tree. β
The black-haired boy lying on the next bed is none other than Kaito Taiki, the son of a daimyo who had a dispute with mourners in the past.
After listening to Musuke's words, Haidong Taishu just smiled slightly and scratched his headβif he had been a few years ago, he would definitely be furious when he heard Musuke's questioning, in order to show the 'demeanor' of his famous son.
It's just that in recent years, a lot of changes have taken place in the Daimyo Castle, and these changes have made him realize the sophistication of this world, and the boy who was originally a loser has also been able to grow up and become a little more mature and stable - if not, how would he be willing to become friends with him.
"To be honest, I don't know if it's good or bad. Haidong Taishu put his hands on his head and looked at the ceiling as if he was mourning, "Even if with the help of you and Tuanzang, the plan succeeds and I will inherit the position of Daimyo, but can I really guide this country in the right direction as you said?"
"I don't have any confidence in my heart about running the country, to be honest, I haven't had any idea about the position of a daimyo, and I promised you my plan, not because of such boring things. β
"What's the reason for that?"
"Because I'm afraid of my father. Haidong Dashu laughed and said, "My father is a real politician, in his heart, rights and interests are the most important, and family affection is just a prop he uses to act." β
"In order to inherit the position of the daimyo earlier, he can work with Danzang to arrange to kill his grandfather, so in the same way, he can also kill my own son for other reasons. "And I don't want to die in this stupid struggle for rights. β
"There are only two ways to avoid being used as a tool for acting, one is to gain power, and the other is to gain power. β
"I've tried to gain power, but it's too difficult for me to practice ninjutsu, and I can't do it..."
"The only way I have to do is to gain power, to gain power so that my father can't use me as a tool or a victim..."
And the only one who meets this condition is the position of the Daimyo. β
Fu Zhu listened quietly, Haidong Dashu's words seemed to be telling him, but in fact he was telling himself, even if the matter was completed at this time, and the wood was already in the boat, he still had doubts and uneasiness in his heart.
As an ally and friend, all he can do now is listen to him quietly and be a listener in silence.
"Sometimes I envy you. Haidong Taishu turned his head to look at the mourning who was lying on the bed next to him, "There are trustworthy people, there are people who like people, and there are many things that I don't have." β
"Do you know the spell of the Hyuga family?" said Musuke, "we kind of look like that. β
Haidong Dashu chuckled lightly, but did not answer, he slowly got up from the bed, took the windbreaker on the chair next to him, and slowly put it on.
"Now that you're awake, I'm at ease. After putting on the trench coat, Kaito Taiki smiled lightly and opened the door of the ward, "Patriarch Sato, I will see you again in the future." β
"Walk slowly. The head of mourning replied without turning around.
After walking out of the ward, the face that had been smiling lightly turned into indifference and seriousness, and the guards from the Haidong family who had been waiting for a long time followed closely on both sides of the Haidong tree.
"Less... Patriarch. The guard on the left side of the Haidong Big Tree took a few steps closer, "Now that our plan has been completed, do you want to...", he made a gesture of wiping his neck with a knife.
"Not at the moment. Haidong Taishu's voice did not fluctuate in the slightest, "Sato's bereavement is still useful to me, so I'll keep it for the time being." β
"Yes. The guard nodded respectfully and said nothing.
"That's right. Kaito Taiki suddenly asked, "Do you know the Hyuga family's separation curse?
"Patriarch, are you talking about the 'caged bird' spell mark used by the Zong family to restrict the division of the family?" the guard standing on his right side answered, "If necessary, the subordinates will immediately go and sort out the relevant materials and send them to your study. β
"No need. The corners of his mouth rose imperceptibly, and Haidong Dashu quickened the pace of leaving.
- Caged birds?
- Indeed... Quite like that.
*********************************
After Kaito Taiki left, soon, everyone from the Sato family came.
To be precise, those who can come to the mourning ward are the backbone elites of the Sato family, and these people have become representatives of the Sato family.
Kengo Taniguchi, Keita, Li, Ichi Sato, No. 2 Sato, No. 3 Sato.
Naturally, Uzumaki Kushina, who is the girlfriend of the bereavement, was also present - the affairs of the Sato family, when the bereavement was away, he also helped take care of one or two, so the bereavement was injured and hospitalized in a coma this time, and he couldn't hide it from her.
"Actually, I'm fine, really. Musuke shook his head and tried to sit up, but his action was just an extravagant hope, and before he could get up, he was knocked down by a punch from Kushina on the side.
"If you are injured, lie down quietly for me, and you are not allowed to move!" Jiu Sinai pulled up his ears in dissatisfaction, and the elites of the Sato family on the side did not change their faces, but their eyes quietly moved to the side.
The patriarch is full of majesty, he can't laugh, he can't laugh, if he laughs out loud, maybe the patriarch will have to put on his little shoes.
Fu Zhu was also accustomed to Jiu Sinai's behavior, and this time he was indeed at his own expense, so he rarely did not resist, but just reached out and gently hugged Jiu Sinai's waist, and smiled at Jiu Sinai.
The strength of Jiu Xinnai's ears suddenly turned to zero, and his little face instantly turned as red as an apple.
"What are you doing, everyone is here, and you are not ashamed. The red-faced Kushina spoke in a voice as thin as a mosquito.
"It's all old husbands and wives, so it doesn't matter if they let them see it. The mourning had a nonchalant expression on his face.
The people on the side were still expressionless - they couldn't laugh when they showed affection, they couldn't laugh, and when they laughed, the patriarch must have more than just wearing small shoes.
Musuke was not ashamed, but Jiu Sinai couldn't stand it, she snorted, and let Musuke run out of the ward.
"Calendar, let's confirm. After Kushina left, Musuke was finally able to sit up straight.
"My wife is gone. Li closed his eyes, felt it for a moment, and then replied.
"Now that you're gone, let's report on the situation. "I've been in a coma for about two days and six hours this time, just pick something important and tell me about it." β
"Everything went as planned. "The answer is Taniguchi, who handles the affairs of the Sato family on behalf of the mourner," a series of chain reactions after Kaito Kaedaro's resignation were expected by Kaito Taishu and Danzo, and they were basically controlled. β
Speaking of the name Tuanzang, Li on the side also frowned, "Master, don't you really need to take any measures over there?"
Fusuke shook his head, after several years of negotiations, Musuke has also figured out the person of Tuan Zang, as long as what he does does not harm the interests of Konoha, Tuan Zang can basically turn a blind eye - the high-quality forged weapons and hemostatic patches that are stably provided every year are not given in vain!
"Little One, Little Two, Little Three, do you have any news?" The mourner's gaze turned to the three brothers Sato One, Two and Three, who were in charge of infiltration and intelligence work at Sato's house.
"Patriarch, the matter you asked us to investigate earlier has an eyebrow. Sato took out a scroll from his bosom and handed it to mourning.
Musuke took the scroll, his face changing slightly.
"I didn't expect to have eyebrows so soon..."
"News about that dark shadow monster. β
