187. Bastards and orphans

"You told him everything?" Wei Qingyun was a little puzzled.

"Of course not, I'm just persuading him, Eko's problem, the difficulty is to make some connections, let's let Hitomi go first."

"Mr. Xinhu's state, how's it going?"

"It's not good, he gets a headache when he thinks about things, and because of this, he also has to entrust things to Hitomi."

"Thank you for your trust."

"What's polite, it's you helping us, it doesn't seem like we even talked about the price."

"I only accept diamonds." Wei Qingyun took a sip of wine, and the corners of his mouth smiled evilly.

"Hahahaha," Hearing this, Yoshida Nobuo suddenly got up and laughed wildly, and the laughter pierced through the coming silent night and drifted away in the mist, "I'm afraid you won't accept it." ”

Wei Qingyun knew what he was talking about, referring to the old incident many years ago.

Yamamoto Shinhu held a nerve infiltration competition, the champion was Wei Qingyun, in addition to the deserved bonus, there was also a chance - to become the royal nerve infiltrator of the Yamamoto family, and the reward was a small plate of diamonds.

Wei Qingyun turned down that opportunity.

"Mr. was there at the time?" Wei Qingyun asked directly.

"The gathering of young talents from all over the world, how can I not be a lively person, although I don't know what nerves to sneak into, but the fighting competition section is very satisfying."

"I see."

"I can't imagine that there is a big fool like you in the world, you were only fourteen or fifteen years old at the time."

"Oh, yes, I regret it when I think about it."

"Hahahaha, I still remember what you looked like at the time, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, facing a plate of sparkling diamonds, it was a really difficult choice, hey, what were you thinking at the time? Seeing that you are in a hurry, your whole face is twisted into a ball. ”

"I'm going to be late for my flight."

"Huh? What's going on? ”

"In order to save money, Master doesn't want me to stay here longer, so the schedule is very tight."

"Hahahaha, those diamonds, isn't it a pity to buy a private jet?"

"But I'm going to take those diamonds, won't I never have a chance to fly again."

"Haha, I really think so, at a young age, I already know the value of freedom, it's really rare."

"Actually, Kigoro is not bad, he is not worse than me." Wei Qingyun said from the bottom of his heart.

"It was true back then, you two were not equal, but, in the past ten years, I'm afraid you have also discovered that his experience and actual combat experience are still too far behind, and Mr. Wei will not deny this, right?"

"At least people have wives and two smart and sensible children, many people think that it was my turn to give up that opportunity, but in fact, it was his choice to accept that opportunity at that time, not anyone's charity."

"Agree, Kigoro is not a person who takes money very seriously, but, having said that, sometimes I just can't help it, and I think he's quite pitiful."

"It's because of the misunderstanding of others that caused that situation, and they all thought that he got the opportunity by luck."

"Kigoro trusts you very much, he said that he recommended it to Eko, and even cooperated with you, and even with the Sun family."

"Well, his move is dangerous, but it's also wonderful, especially after seeing that Donald, I feel more and more like this."

"It's the same when you say that, Donald's dream of profiting from the fisherman was directly shattered, and this kid really has two hits."

The two seem to be chatting, but in fact they are seeking an opportunity to build trust, cooperation is one thing, but deepening trust requires mutual sympathy.

The grandeur and solemnity of the twilight of the sunset have receded, the night makes people unrestrained, the conversation between the two has become more and more cheerful, and the content has become more and more extensive, and the two have many common hobbies and similar experiences.

Trust is often built on what we have in common. Whether it's a friend or foe.

When night had completely fallen, the two of them came out of the hot tub, changed into clean and comfortable kimonos, and went to a place that looked like a living room to eat.

"Those two masters of the Three Kings Society, they are Xiao and Shinobi, they are brothers, and they are Xiao and younger brothers who have their heads cut off, this time he is really dead, he practices a secret technique, if he doesn't cut off his head, it is difficult to be killed."

"However, probably because of such a secret inheritance, his later kung fu is getting more and more different from his brother."

"That's right, I know them very well, according to their generation, they are my uncles, haha, but, because of their unbearable behavior, they have long been expelled from the master's sect, and it is rumored that the ancestor was also assassinated by them and died, which the master never talked about."

"The two of them are considered to be the veterans of the Three Kings Society, but as early as more than ten years ago, they no longer cared about the gangs, and now they are reappearing, probably because the situation is forcing them."

Regarding Shinobu and Owl, Nobuo Yoshida gave such information.

"As for me as a person, I am the kendo teacher of the Edgeworth Fuji Martial Arts Hall, I am a prodigal when I was young, I once joined the army, and participated in several M-Day joint military operations initiated by M."

Edgeworth is a martial arts hall that has existed since the Tokugawa shogunate. In the last years of the shogunate, Japan fell into chaos due to the invasion of the West, and there was a constant struggle between the toppled faction and the supporters of the shogunate.

At that time, the owner of the pavilion discussed with several martial arts elders, as a samurai himself, it was difficult to distinguish between right and wrong, and it was even more difficult to spy on the direction of historical development, but whether it was the old school or the reform school, it was certain that they were all fighting bloodily for the survival of the Yamato clan.

In the end, the owner of the hall set the rule that "it starts with the way of the sword and ends with the way of the sword", and in the martial arts hall, all the disciples are not allowed to talk about politics, let alone fight privately for different aspirations. Outside the martial arts hall, personal behavior, the martial arts hall will not interfere, and everything is at your own risk.

At first, everyone did not approve of this approach, thinking that it was a trick to ride the wall, but as the enmity between the two factions deepened, Edgeworth became a safe haven and a necessary presence in troubled times.

Both the Restorationists and the supporters of the shogunate had many samurai, and even people with great influence and high positions, who went to the martial arts hall to hide from the killing.

Edgeworth's special status and network of contacts were established at that time.

This information is easy to find, and Nobuo Yoshida did not waste much words.

"Some things are personal trivialities, but after meeting Mr. Wei, those troubles are like fish in my throat, and I always want to jump out by myself."

"Haha, you say, I'll listen."

"You're an orphan too?"

"Yes, you too?" Wei Qingyun asked rhetorically.

Because Yoshida's grammar revealed this, and those so-called troubles were likely to be related to this, Wei Qingyun simply picked the topic more clearly.

"Haha, sort of," Nobuo Yoshida said, raising his head from the pot and drinking down the small half of the wine, "do you feel anything?" Compared to those normal children? ”

"Normal child? I'm quite normal, but I just don't understand why my parents abandoned me, I always feel as if I am missing something, I don't know what my parents look like, I don't know if they are affectionate, what they do, what they like, what they hate, just like a sprouting seed, I don't know what kind of tree or grass I am, so I don't know how to grow. ”

"Haha, I see."

"Yes, I think my parents and their past are also a part of our lives, without those things, it always makes people feel lost, I don't know where I came from, I can't be sure where I'm going, in the past, I always listened to Master, and later, later, even Master didn't want me......"

Wei Qingyun's expression darkened, and he was very disappointed. Yoshida Nobuo also learned from Kigoro that Wei Qingyun once lived a life of self-exile, wandering excessively, drunk and dreaming of death among flowers.

"You've never met your parents?"

"Haha, are you an orphan, if you know who your parents are, how can you be considered an orphan."

"Listen to you, you've been looking for them?"

"Well, of course I looked for it, but I didn't find it, haha, I begged Uncle Zhang, a very good friend of my master, to let him use the so-called genetic method to restore the appearance of my parents according to my appearance, and I searched for a while in newspapers and the Internet, but I didn't find it."

"Would you love to meet them?"

"Of course, sometimes I imagine in my heart what they look like, their personalities, they may be very affectionate, and occasionally they will have a little fight, just like all the other children's parents, they must have lost me for some unavoidable reason, and they also look for me everywhere, imagining what I look like growing up year by year, even though I am not by their side, every time I eat, they will also put a pair of dishes and chopsticks for me, clip the dishes they think I like for me to eat, make new clothes for me every year, buy new toys......"

"Then you're still very happy."
