Act 54 The Strange Thief · M. Road
"What pact did you make with a wicked man like you?" Tachibana Masamune turned, "Don't forget who you are, Shogun." ”
"I'm not a general, and I've never admitted that I'm a general." "Wang Jiang" lifted his mask, "I think you know better than anyone who the king general is. ”
"Lu Mingfei?" Tachibana Masamune saw this familiar face, and his eyes flashed with surprise.
"Lu Mingfei, participate!" Lu Mingfei grinned, "Hello principal, and Mr. Inuyama." ”
"Ming Fei?" Ange frowned, "Why did you end up here wearing the mask of a general?" ”
"Naturally, it's ......," Lu Mingfei pointed to Tachibana Masamune, "I'm here to trouble Mr. Masamune." ”
"We almost died at the bottom of the sea, and after we escaped, we were chased by Kabayahime, and the wanted warrant issued by the Metropolitan Police Department was also your doing, right? Your good son, Gen Zhisheng, once said that the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department has acquaintances of you. There was sarcasm in his tone.
"Now it seems that the Japanese are born with such an ugly face, and the tragic experience of the three of us is due to you, isn't it natural to take revenge?"
"Lu Jun, I'm glad to see that you're still alive, about the Abyss Project, the Executive Board did hide something from you, and the family owes you a lot, I apologize to you." Tachibana Masamune bowed deeply to Lu Mingfei.
"The principal has already been angry with you, and there is a reason why I have to do this, please forgive me."
"Why?" Lu Mingfei sneered, "I guess you have to tell me next, the Eight Snake Families have their own positions and hardships, and you don't ask for our understanding, because you are evil people yourself, and you can be generous and shameless to admit this." ”
"Let me think about it...... What is it called...... Sin Eater Theory, right? A bullshit statement. ”
"For the sake of common interests, so-and-so jumped out to be a villain, and in the eyes of outsiders, the one who was a wicked person was you, and you tried your best to eradicate the fierce ghosts, and you tried your best to implement the Abyss Plan."
Tachibana Masamune's steady expression suddenly appeared a hint of astonishment, "Yes...... Lu Jun, I think you're right, you are a smart person, and it is easy to communicate with smart people. ”
"Since you can understand the family's suffering, I think you must ......"
"Don't say that, I don't understand." Lu Mingfei waved his hand, "I just brought in you and fantasized about myself as a shameless bastard to the extreme, so that I could say these bastard words to the extreme." ”
"Ming Fei is a good child." Ange whispered to Inuyamaga.
"......," he was silent for a moment, and then replied quietly, "yes, he is indeed a smart student, no wonder the teacher says that he is the best, and always satisfies people." ”
Inuyama He sighed inwardly, and couldn't help but feel that the atmosphere of the Kassel Academy was really ...... Tough, this is the case with the principal, and the best students are like this, do you have to learn how to mock people in addition to learning to slay dragons?
"We are wanted from your snake family...... No, from the moment you concealed the truth buried in Takamagahara and put us in danger, it could already be seen as a rebellion against the secret party. ”
Lu Mingfei smiled and said, "The war has already started, hasn't it?" ”
"You designed us, and finally let us escape, it's your nest, so what am I going to do in your base camp...... It's my job, right? ”
"Strange Thieves · M·Lu hereby predicts that Genji Heavy Industries may not be safe in the next few days. He snapped his fingers, and his figure vanished.
Tachibana Masamune's face was very ugly.
Ange wondered how much this kid was hiding? He can't even see the hole cards, so he's going to do something big in Tokyo.
He patted Inuyamaga on the shoulder, "It's good to do it yourself." ”
Then he turned around with his suitcase, passed Tachibana Masamune, who was standing silent, walked out of the front gate of Tamamo, and disappeared into the Tokyo night.
There was a long silence in the room, and Inuyama took the lead in bowing deeply to Tachibana Masamune.
"Mr. Masamune, I'm really ashamed that the negotiations with the principal broke down, and I bother you to make a trip yourself."
"That's not a big deal, but it's Inuyama-kun, you, who were involved in such a bad attack and killing, it's really a good thing, and it's the most fortunate that you weren't injured." The haze on Tachibana Masamune's face was instantly swept away, and Inuyama was helped up.
"I also have a lot of responsibility for this matter, and the negotiation is all in your hands, and I have worked hard for you." He said in a reassuring tone, "I feel very guilty for letting you bear the pressure of the secret party alone, and putting you in such a dangerous situation. ”
"Mr. Masamune is serious." Inuyama He said nonchalantly, "As a member of the Eight Snake Clans, I am still the head of the family, and it is my duty to stand up for the family. ”
"What's more, I used to be a student of Principal Angers, and the negotiation was really the right choice for me."
"So......" Tachibana Masamune rubbed his eyebrows, "You also know the current situation just now, Principal Ange has a heavy grudge against the Eight Snake Families, and the family's situation is not good. ”
"Next, in the process of exterminating the 'gods', we must not only face resistance from the fierce ghosts, but also be on guard against Ange's fierce eyes at all times...... Plus the retaliation of the officers of the headquarters. ”
"I'll have to ask Kaguya to strengthen the security of Genji Heavy Industries when I go back."
"Do you have any instructions?" Inuyama asked suddenly.
"Inuyama-kun, I'm already deeply guilty for letting you encounter today's emergency, how about you recuperate at home during this time?" Tachibana Masamune said, "Until we kill God completely." ”
"Mr. Masamune, I can interpret this as ...... Do you want to take my rights? Inuyama's face suddenly sank, "It seems that the family still doesn't trust me, even though I'm already very loyal." ”
"Inuyama-kun misunderstood me." Tachibana Masamune shook his head and sighed, "For this war, the family has been preparing for ten years, sacrificing countless people, and I have also stepped down from the position of the eldest patriarch. ”
"It's not that the family doesn't trust you, but because the current situation can't afford to slip up the slightest, I'm worried that Inuyama-kun's physical condition will have problems under such tremendous pressure."
Inuyama thought for a moment.
"Okay." He whispered, "I am indeed old, so I will do as you say, from today until the day the 'god' is destroyed, the Inuyama family will be handed over to the patriarch to wave his fingers......
Tachibana Masamune nodded and smiled with satisfaction, "I will definitely arrange the best place for Inuyama-kun to recuperate." ”
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Masamune." Inuyama Kafumi bowed, "Then Mr. Masamune, it's not too early, Tamamo was attacked like this, and I still have to arrange repairs......"
"Understood, understood." Tachibana Masamune smiled and nodded, "Since Inuyama-kun is fine, I can rest assured." ”
He maintained a bowing posture and sent Tachibana Masamune out of the door.
The moment he straightened up, the smile on his face suddenly retracted, and a few goddaughters whispered something.
……
……
The door was open, and a handsome boy stood among the bodyguards who were paralyzed all over the floor.
A kimono with red flowers on a black background, crisp straight hair, clogs on his feet, and a long knife with a red sheath stuck in his waist.
He held a bouquet of budding tulips and handed them over.
"You're ......," Masamune Tachibana's pupils narrowed.
"Shh The boy put his fingers in front of his lips and blinked, "Long time no see." ”
"What are you doing here?" Tachibana Masamune's tone was low.
"I'm just out for a walk." The boy smiled, "I come to Tokyo every year when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom......
He looked up at the blackly lit mansion in the night, "By the way, look at my brother who is high up in the sky." ”
"You shouldn't be here." Tachibana Masamune said.
"Oh, of course, this is different from the plan I originally discussed with Lu Jun." The boy still smiled, "I should appear in front of Tamamo, and then control everyone in the arena so that Lu Jun can do things more conveniently." ”
"But Lu Jun later changed his mind, and I couldn't just let you go......"
He pulled out the long knife at his waist, "I have to collect some debt, right?" ”
"I heard that the director of the executive bureau of the Eight Snake Families, that is, my dear brother, has very good knife skills, and I think the former head of the Eight Snake Families will not have bad sword skills, right?"
"Even if you kill me, you won't be able to change your fate." Tachibana Masamune stared at the boy, "No one can change your fate." ”
"Really? I don't think so, because my destiny has really changed. The boy seemed idly idle, holding the knife sideways in front of him.
"I'm only going to do one stab, and if you don't die, then forget it this time."
Before Tachibana Masamune could answer, he suddenly burst into flames, his blade piercing the air, as if enveloped in a mighty thunderstorm.
The killing machine was as heavy as a mountain, like a toppled peak, and it was crushed towards Tachibana Masamune, making him tremble in the depths of his soul, almost out of breath.
At the moment of life and death, Tachibana Masamune came to his senses, pulled out the saber that was carried at his waist, and blocked the path of the opponent's blade.
Unexpectedly, the boy's arm instantly bent into a strange angle, bypassing Tachibana Masamune's defenses, and slashed at his chest, leaving a clear and vertical wound, and blood flowers burst like a thick mist.
"Tsk." The boy seemed to feel a little pity, sighed lightly, and then put the knife back into its sheath, "Lucky for you, we'll meet again......"
"Daddy." He said word for word.
The boy stepped over Tachibana Masamune, who had fallen to the ground and groaned in pain, and walked to the girl on the side of the street holding an umbrella in the rain.
"I've been waiting." Ruri Kazama smiled, her hand gently caressing Sakurai's cheek.
"As long as you wait for adults, you can take as long as you want." The girl replied, her eyes so tender that they seemed to drip water.
"Lang Cai Girl, Lang Cai Girl." There was a burst of applause in the shadows around the corner, "When are you going to get married?" I remember that Sister Xiao Du had a super good-looking twelve singles, so she just wore it at the wedding. ”
Sakurai Twilight lowered her head shyly.
Ruri Kazama bowed slowly, "Lu-kun, thank you for being willing to accommodate my willfulness. ”
"I'm not giving in to your willfulness, and besides, I don't guarantee that things will actually go according to my plan." Lu Mingfei said, "It doesn't matter, anyway, the ultimate goal is to let that old dog die in the most painful way." ”
"Anyway......" he paused, "do you still hate your brother?" After learning all this. ”
"I don't know." Ruri Kazama's clear eyes revealed a hint of confusion, "Even if he becomes the head of the Eight Snake Clans and wields unparalleled power, there is not much left of what he has. ”
"What do I gain if I insist on revenge and take it all away from him?"
"I don't want him to leave the kingdom with nothing."
Lu Mingfei shrugged, he didn't know Yuan Zhisheng very well.
This time of my life...... It seems that he went deep into the enemy camp and abducted Eri Yi, so he didn't have any chance to contact Yuan Zhisheng at all, so naturally he didn't know much.
"I've been thinking about it for a long time in the past few days, but I still haven't come up with an answer." Ruri Kazama continued, "We are relatives, and no matter what, we still have a family relationship that is thicker than water, but he doesn't think that I am more important than the so-called 'justice'......"
"No way." As he spoke, he suddenly laughed, "When I was a child, I watched Ultraman a lot, and I saw my brother as a fool who would only insist on what he thought was 'righteous' in his heart...... He was even willing to give up everything for this. ”
……
……
Genji Heavy Industries.
Awakening Temple on the rooftop.
Genjisheng was drunkenly and half-collapsed on the steps, and there was a circle of empty wine bottles scattered around him.
Sakura knelt beside him and didn't say anything, just handed him bottle after bottle of wine.
In the past few days, Yuan Zhisheng has not rested much, and as soon as he falls asleep, he will repeat a nightmare.
In the dream, he returned to the town on a rainy night, and the world was filled with the rustle of rain, and he stood in front of the dark well, and the young girl was lying at the bottom of the well, her eyes wide and unbright.
Maybe it's because Eri lost it.,It reminds the things that Yuan Zhisheng doesn't want to remember the most.。
"Sakura." He turned his head to look at the girl beside him.
Her face was as white as silk, and her long black hair was scattered in the wind.
"I'm here, Patriarch." Sakura said calmly.
"Am I really doing something wrong?" Yuan Zhisheng's eyes were misty, "How do I feel that I have done a lot of things wrong." ”
I don't know why, in the dead of night, he suddenly questioned his choice, even though it was the justice he had been carrying out since he was a child.
"You're thinking about your brother again?" Sakura asked.
"Hmm." Gen Zhisheng replied in a low voice, "When it's quiet at night, I think of him. ”
"Maybe you're doing something wrong." Sakura said.
Genji was stunned, Sakura actually gave a negative answer, and in his memory, Sakura had not given any negative answer.
"If you don't think you've done anything wrong, you don't think about him every night." Sakura's tone was still flat as water.
Yuan Zhisheng looked at the girl silently.
Sakura looked at him as well.
Suddenly he felt that he was not without nothing in this world, he also had his beautiful girls, and two stupid people.
Some people died, but not completely......
