Chapter 119: The Black Cauldron Descends from the Sky
"You mean...... Iori saved me so she could use my psychic skills to help them infiltrate the Akai family?"
Although Ji Keyan also has a good impression of Iori, and she also feels very guilty about the incident of that night in the ukiyo-kan, she is different from Hakuma Shino, this quasi-special spirit who was favored by Fez and has been interning there for a period of time naturally has a good mind and experience, and can accept such things very calmly.
Shiratori Ling felt that everything so far could be explained, and planned to intercept and kill, save Ji Keyan and enter the Imperial Laboratory, all of which could throw Akai into a situation from which he could never recover.
"In my opinion, it is. If I'm not mistaken, tomorrow's Imperial Trial will be a gamble that will determine the future of the Guild, who will be the final winner......" Shiratori Ling's face was covered with gloom, and her clear eyes were also covered with a layer of gloom at this time.
Ji Keyan sighed, patted his hand on her shoulder, and comforted, "Don't think about it so much, you will also participate in tomorrow's imperial trial, so rest early." ”
Shiratori Ling nodded, and suddenly remembered something very important, "If the Kimura family really colluded with Himiko, what do you say they want to do most now?"
"If it's me...... I'll deal with Genji and Akai, the strongest in the Iaikai, first. And now that Akai has been completely pulled down the water, then Genji is left. Ji Keyan analyzed, "But hasn't Genji's power been weakened by them?"
"No, Kimura's way of blaming the chairman for the night attack on Seigaku only weakened Genji's power in the living realm, and it had little to no influence on Genji in the spirit realm. I think Himiko and Kimura should have other tricks to do against Genji. ”
"That'...... Do we need to remind Genji?"
Shiratori Ling shrugged his shoulders, "Although he is also an enemy of our Shiratori family, it is better to remind him at this moment of invasion by foreign enemies." ”
"Speaking of foreign invasions, there is no trace of Himiko so far, and I don't know how she plans to revive Yamadai. ”
Shiratori Ling recalled what Shiraba Shiro told her about the fall of Lingcho in Nerima District last night, and only then did she remember that Ji Keyan didn't know at this time, so she relayed all his words to Ji Keyan in 1510.
Ji Keyan was shocked after hearing this, "Why haven't you told the Juhe Council about such a serious matter? It's been three or four days, right?!"
Shiratori Ling was also very helpless, "Do you think about it, did we have a chance to tell them? Today we went to Akai to tell him about it, and it turned out to be ......" Speaking of this, Shiratori Ling suddenly remembered that when she was in the laboratory, she wanted to say this, but was stopped by Hakumashio at that time. Looking back now, I still don't understand why he stopped himself.
Hehe, you deserve it. These four words floated through Ji Keyan's mind for the first time, but she didn't say it, because this is not a good thing after all, Akai Matsudaira does deserve it, but if it causes the lives to be ruined, the spirits and ghost people in Dongzhou are innocent, "Then we ...... now"
At this time, a man dressed as a doctor walked towards them, he was wearing a mask on his face, and he couldn't see his face, and when he came to them, he suddenly took off his mask, "Shiratori, take a step to speak." ”
"Kenichi Gen?" Shiratori Ling was not surprised, it was normal for the gods of the Imperial Spirit to appear ghostly. She glanced at Ji Keyan, her brows furrowed, "Is there anything you can't say here?"
"I'm thinking about you, and I'll wait until you listen to it before you decide that it's not convenient for others to know. With that, he walked straight into the far safety exit.
Bai Bird Ling looked at him strangely, and was hesitating, Ji Keyan said, "Go ahead, maybe there is some important information." He's an emperor, and he won't come to you in disguise if there's nothing important. ”
That's just as well. Shiratori Ling didn't dare to slack off and followed to the safety exit.
Standing at the staircase of the safe passage, Yuan Jian said straight to the point, "You stay away from that Fez, surnamed Ji, today, it's better to find an excuse to leave." ”
Bai Bird Ling was shocked when she heard this, and the first thing she thought of was that someone was coming to trouble her, so in order to prevent Ji from being involved, she was asked to leave. And most of the people who are looking for trouble are Genji, after all, the only one who will target her at the moment is Genji, who will try to meet her tomorrow, "Did you hear any movement, Genji wants to trouble me?"
Gen Kenichi was a little surprised, as if he didn't expect her to interpret it like this, so he corrected, "It's indeed Genji, but they are not looking for you, but the one with the surname Ji." How could you have thought of yourself? If it was you, I would have ...... long ago " At this, he suddenly stopped, and his face was flushed.
Shiratori didn't notice his expression, but felt even more strange, "Why is Genji bothering her? Moreover, Genji is making trouble with her, why should I stay away from her?"
Gen Kenichi laughed dumbly, "Are you really stupid or fake stupid? Genji is going to kill her, won't you be affected by her side?"
Bai Bird Ling didn't bypass the bend at all, this emperor took great pains to sneak into the hospital in disguise at night to find her, just to tell her not to be affected?
"You came in disguise to look for me, just to care about me?"
Kenichi Gen blushed as if he had been exposed, and stammered, "I...... I don't, don't think about it!"
However, he misunderstood what Bai Bird Ling meant, the point of her sentence was not "You actually care about me!", but "You came here to say this to me?", and Bai Bird Ling was a little angry, this person knew that Ji Keyan was in trouble, and actually let her leave Ji Keyan and run away by herself, she was really a ruthless and unrighteous guy.
But she thought that she was not familiar with Kenichi Gen, and whether he was righteous or unrighteous had nothing to do with her, so she didn't delve into it, "Why did Genji kill her?"
"What does this have to do with you? Hurry up, or you won't be able to leave when they come!"
At this time, Bai Bird Ling couldn't bear it anymore, and said angrily, "She is my friend, you let me leave my friend and steal my life?"
Yuan Kenichi took it for granted, "In life, of course, protecting yourself is the most important thing, what does the life and death of others have to do with you?"
"Then what does my life and death have to do with you?"
"I ......" Kenichi Gen was suddenly speechless, unable to answer, and he didn't understand why he had to run to tell her. In principle, if this woman let go of the Thousand Sons Key Sword, she should be the enemy of their Emperor Spirits.
After thinking about it for a while, I found a reason, "Because you saved Your Majesty, I want to save you." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, he regretted it, and sure enough, in the next second, Bai Bird Ling immediately caught his mistake, "Keyan also saved your majesty, why didn't you save her?"
"Who said I wouldn't save me?!I'm here to tell you that Your Majesty wants me to protect that woman and let you leave because I don't want you to get in the way here, understand!" Gen Kenichi suddenly became a little annoyed and angry, and he didn't know why.
"You're here to protect her, then why did you pull me over and say it alone? Can't you let her know?"
Yuan Kenichi was really angry, scratched his head and said angrily, "Why don't you know what to do with this woman? Isn't it good for you to stay out of the way if someone wants to kill her? Why do you care about her life or death?"
Bai Bird Ling suddenly calmed down, and a hint of sympathy rose in her eyes, "You don't have any friends, do you?"
Yuan Jian was stunned, not knowing why the topic suddenly jumped here, Mu Ne's expression had already told her the answer: no.
"But why did you come to inform me? It's because you treat me as your friend, don't you? I'm your friend, and I'm my friend, so I can't leave it alone. She didn't want to delay with him any longer, and walked to the door, "Thank you, but you don't have to talk in vain." ”
pushed open the door, but found Ji Keyan standing in front of the door, first startled, and then embarrassed to say, "I'm sorry...... I'm just curious how you've been talking for so long, I'm afraid you're in danger, so ...... But I'm very touched by what you said, as a friend, don't worry about what I'm eavesdropping?"
Of course, Shiratori didn't care about it, and she was about to tell her, "Since you've heard it all, then I won't repeat it to you." Do you know why Genji came to kill you?"
Ji Keyan hurriedly shook his head, "How do I know this? If the Emperor Lingzhong wants to kill me, I can understand it, after all, I have also acted with them, and it is reasonable to kill people." As she spoke, she suddenly pointed at Kenichi Gen, "Could it be...... The Emperor Lingzhong wants to kill me, you are here to take Xiaoling away, but in fact, you are diverting the tiger from the mountain!"
Yuan Jianyi looked at the suspicious eyes of these two people, and said helplessly, "How can I care about your business, I must be crazy." He let out a long sigh, "I'll just say it, Genji wants to seek revenge on you for killing the head of the Genji family." ”
As soon as the words fell, the two girls took a deep breath in shock, and Shiratori Ling blurted out directly, "Gense Jing is dead?!"
"No, no, no, you're used to it, aren't you? The head of the Genji family is Yoshihiro Minamoto. Minamoto is only the acting head of the family. Now he wants to avenge his father, and he will do it tonight, and he is already on his way here. ”
Ji Keyan's mind was a little confused, and she said in a panic, "Wait! When will I kill Yoshihiro Yuan?"
Kenichi Gen gloated a little, "Of course I know that you didn't kill him, Yoshihiro Gen died in his study this afternoon, when you and we were under the Akai family. ”
"Then you can testify for me!"
Shiratori Ling was much calmer than her, "He won't testify for you." Trespassing into the Akai family's mansion without permission is a big taboo for the relationship between the monarch and the minister, and the laboratory has been blown up to the ground, and they will not admit this operation without evidence. After she "comforted" Ji Keyan with reason, she looked at Kenichi Gen again, "But why does Genji suspect that he is a person who can be killed?"
Kenichi Gen said, "Genji boasts that his mansion is the safest place, and Gen Yoshihiro's study is only accessible to him and his four children, of course Gense Jing himself will not admit it, Gen Tianchuan happens to be with Minamoto Sutra again, Gen Shenying has already hung up, Gen Yin Lan has been by His Majesty's side, this 'Jing Chuan Shen Yin' four children have 'ruled out' suspicion, then the only one who can enter Gen Yoshihiro's study can only be this Ji Da Trling who has emerged with spatial spirit skills in the Shengyue Pavilion." It just so happened that they didn't know where they heard that she was saved by the Kimura family, so they have reason to believe that in order to repay the favor, she promised the Kimura family to assassinate Yoshihiro Minamoto. In fact, it's not just her tonight, but the Kimura family is also more auspicious. ”
All this was too sudden and inexplicable, and for a moment the atmosphere fell into a dead silence.
At this moment, a mobile phone ringtone broke the thoughts of each of the three people. Shiratori Ling picked up the phone, and Shiratori's anxious voice came from the other end, "Ling-sama, I just got the news that Genji sent someone to assassinate Ji Keyan-sama, you have to be careful!"
Shiratori Ling heard his flustered voice and knew that he must not be chaotic at this moment, so he said calmly, "I already knew, don't worry, I can still deal with those people in Genji." ”
Hearing her words, Shiratori Ping was really relieved, "I knew that it was only the remaining six of the Seven Samurai of the Spirit Sword, plus more than a hundred Genji dead soldiers, and Lord Ling would definitely be able to deal with it." ”
