Volume 3 Hello, Eri Chapter 246 Girl's Flower Arrangement (V)
"If you have no moral integrity, please don't drag me into this, okay?!" Lu Mingfei crossed her arms and trembled. She always felt that Caesar's eyes when looking at her were full of strange desires. It was not the love of a reliable adult male for the lolita style, but the look of a capitalist with a big gold chain who has discovered a good money-making talent. This guy has clearly fallen!
"How can this be called shameless? Everyone has to take the first step into society. Do you think Chu Zihang and I have done any part-time jobs to earn money for our studies? This is our first job, and it can be yours too." Caesar looked serious.
"Can this be considered as entering society? It's clear that as soon as he stepped out of society, he was drowned in the big dye vat of society and turned yellow!"
"No, this host club is called Takamagahara. It's the top host club in Shinjuku and even in the whole of Tokyo. A decent host club won't do pornographic things. You can't survive in such a place just by relying on your looks. The customers who come here to spend money are women who don't care about money. They just want to have fun. It's not as exaggerated as you think."
"So you feel at ease staying here?" Seeing that Caesar seemed to like this hellhole very much and even tried to drag her, Lu Mingfei, into it, Lu Mingfei could only turn her eyes to the only serious person, "Brother, what do you think?"
"We have no choice but to stay here temporarily." Chu Zihang said, "When we came back from the trench, except for Caesar, you, me and Xiyue were all in bad condition. It was like he was dragging three injured people by himself, and he urgently needed a safe shelter."
"But you've settled down now! Are you staying here just to earn some money for activities?"
"I have discussed this issue with Caesar. This is just one of the problems. We are unable to contact the academy, and the Snake Eight Clan have betrayed the academy and are eager to search for us. Takamagahara can allow us to hide temporarily, and it can also allow us to earn some money."
"That's not right. Have you fought with the Eight Snake Clans?" Lu Mingfei suddenly realized the crux of the problem. Only she, Lu Mingfei, who was on the Sumeru Seat, knew about Yuan Zhisheng's betrayal and his abandonment of rescue. Caesar and Chu Zihang should not have known this during the time she lost consciousness. Xiyue was also a member of the launching group and would not know the details.
"They didn't attack directly. They relied on the police. Didn't I say that? There are wanted posters for me and Chu Zihang on TV." Caesar said, "As for why we are so sure it was the Eight Clans of Sheqi, Xiyue provided some information, and more importantly, we have the person involved."
"The person involved? Who?"
"You should be surprised."
Caesar and Chu Zihang removed their makeup and led Lu Mingfei to the second floor through the path behind the dressing room. The second floor of Takama-ga-hara was composed of independent private rooms, some similar to KTVs and some relatively secluded corner bedrooms. Caesar stopped in front of the innermost room and took out the key to open the door.
This is a massage room. It has only a bed, a set of tables and chairs, and various skin care products on the shelf. There is only one guest sitting in the room. He was originally looking straight ahead without any focus, but when he saw Caesar and the others come in, he turned his head and took a look silently, still with no expression.
"Why is he here ?" Lu Mingfei was stunned. It was actually Yuan Zhisheng, but it felt like something was different.
"Don't be anxious, don't say anything, just watch carefully." Caesar whispered to Lu Mingfei.
He moved a chair and sat in front of Yuan Zhisheng, with his hands clasped on the table, his face relaxed like a psychologist facing his client.
"Do you know the Eight Clans of Sheqi?" Caesar asked.
"The supreme rulers of Japan's mixed-race race are collectively known as the Snake Eight Families. They are composed of the three major families of Minamoto, Uesugi, and Tachibana, and the five smaller families of Ryoma, Sakurai, Fuma, Miyamoto, and Inuyama, who make up the entire Japanese branch." Minamoto Chisei's answer was very standard, and it felt like the answer you would get from a search engine.
"What is the true face of the Longyuan Project?" Caesar continued to ask.
"After the plan is officially launched, the Japanese branch will cut off contact with Cassel and independently carry out the goal, letting the Trieste perform an underwater nuclear explosion to directly destroy the God's Burial Place and prevent the God from reviving."
"If we do this, the dive team will die, right?"
"yes."
"If they hadn't died, what would the Japanese branch have done?"
"Search for them, arrest them, and do everything possible to prevent them from having any contact with Kassel."
"You don't plan to catch and kill them?"
"This is the worst-case scenario. If it was an underwater accident, we can claim it was an accident. But if we did it ourselves, there is a possibility of leakage, which will create a feud with Angers that we can never reconcile with. Therefore, at least until the family completes the cleansing of the ghosts, we must hold these unstable pawns in our own hands."
"Why do you know so much?"
"I... don't know." Yuan Zhisheng showed a confused expression. "As soon as you asked the questions, the answers to these questions popped out in my mind, as if I knew all the answers."
"This means that you may be a participant. Do you know who you are?"
“…I can’t remember.”
"Well, it seems you still need to rest more. Don't worry about other problems, we will handle them properly. You just need to know that we are not your enemies, although we can't be considered complete friends." Caesar nodded with an impeccable professional smile, stood up, took Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang, closed the door, and left Yuan Zhisheng alone to guard the empty room.
"He actually lost his memory?" The trio walked into the emergency corridor before starting their conversation. They had to make sure that Yuan Zhisheng wouldn't eavesdrop, so Lu Mingfei spoke very carefully.
"Very surprised, right? We were all very surprised. Human memory is stored in the hippocampus. With the physique of hybrids, it is hard to say that memory disorder will occur due to some kind of damage to the hippocampus, but Yuan Zhisheng did." Caesar shrugged, "At first I didn't know what happened. There was no living person near the Xumi Seat. I only found Yuan Zhisheng. Out of friendship, I carried him away. Along the way, Xiyue told us the real plan of the Divine Burial House and the Eight Snake Families. When we entered the city, we found that there were more wanted posters for ourselves and a missing person advertisement for Yuan Zhisheng on the billboards. We then realized that something was wrong. The police set up checkpoints at various intersections and questioned everyone who passed by. We even had a fight with the police because we couldn't hand over our identities."
"You are underwater so you don't know. Yuan Zhisheng is the trump card of the Snake Eight Clans." Lu Mingfei said, "The Snake Eight Clans knew that once they got close to the so-called God's Burial Place, these things would come out, so they arranged so many backups from Fenglinhuoshan. They carried a large number of firepower weapons to fight against the corpse guards. But the one who was really responsible for the cleanup was Yuan Zhisheng. This guy knew more than one word spirit. He first controlled all the corpse guards on the sea surface, and then annihilated them in one fell swoop with thunder bombardment, but doing so also overloaded him and made him lose consciousness. I found his boat. I was planning to save him, but the dragon-shaped corpse guard showed up with the Trieste, forcing me to go find that guy first."
"I said his wounds were very strange. There were basically no direct penetrating wounds or lacerations on his body, but he was covered with blood blisters and wrinkles. The doctor who was responsible for rescuing him later also said it was amazing. This guy had severe internal bleeding, but he could still hold on until now. After treatment, his recovery speed is amazing. Now there is no sign of injury at all. It's just that there is something wrong with his brain." Caesar finally put everything together.
"I've only heard of Yuan Zhisheng being able to use multiple Word Spirits." Chu Zihang pondered for a while, "His bloodline must be very high, so the Eight Snake Clans would train him as their future successor. But using two Word Spirits on a large scale at the same time will indeed put a very high load on the body. Even if the body can withstand it, the brain can't. That's the most vulnerable part of the human body. Yuan Zhisheng is like an overloaded CPU chip that has lost its memory of itself. He only remembers things around him but not who he is."
"The loss of an heir is such a big deal that it's really worth the Eight Snake Families to go to war. We are the only ones who may have seen Minamoto Chisei in the end. They must be jumping up and down anxiously throughout Japan." Caesar seemed to be able to imagine the heads of the Eight Snake Families scratching their heads. Knowing that these people once wanted to push him into the abyss, it was difficult for him to have any good feelings towards them. Those who made mistakes must be judged. "I think the Gattuso family is similar to them now. I have lost contact in Japan. This is enough for Frost to bring an army to wipe out those Japanese bastards."
The trio exchanged glances. Yuan Zhisheng's amnesia was definitely good news. It meant that the Sheqi Eight Clan had a weak spot in their hands, so they had the right to negotiate with the Sheqi Eight Clan. People from Kassel Academy were never punching bags who would swallow their anger. Since the Sheqi Eight Clan had thought of killing them, there was no need to show any mercy to these guys. Caesar said it very nicely, but being a cowherd was a disgrace to him and Chu Zihang. One of the reasons for staying here was because this place was very close to Genji Heavy Industries. Holding the amnesiac Yuan Zhisheng in their hands was a trump card for counterattacking the Sheqi Eight Clan at any time.
"Besides not remembering who he is, is there anything else wrong with Yuan Zhisheng?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"After losing his memory, this guy behaved like a stupid bird. He was neither anxious nor irritable. He would eat if you gave him food and sleep if you told him to. He would answer you questions honestly. He really doesn't seem like someone who can fake that. I feel relieved," said Caesar.
"Perhaps because he has forgotten the meaning of his own existence, so he behaves without desires." Chu Zihang can understand Yuan Zhisheng's state very well. "He claims to be the burden of the underworld family and says that he can't realize his ideals, but now he has even forgotten who he is. Once the things that once guided him disappear, it is easy for people to lose their way."
"It sounds like he is under control, but I have to remind you, judging from his performance in destroying the group of corpse guards, if a real fight comes, none of us can be his match. Whether it's the words that forcibly suppress the corpse guards, or the thunder that destroys the world, these are things that are difficult for humans to contend with." Recalling the scene where Origin Zhisheng blocked the group of corpse guards alone, Lu Mingfei had to admit that he might be the most powerful hybrid known to date.
"We will pay attention to it. Because we don't want to irritate him, we even negotiated with the store manager and asked him not to participate in store activities for the time being. We also arranged this separate residence for him. He is also very obedient and rarely goes out. He just reads a few comic books over and over again every day. I even gave him a new name. You can call him Ayuan next time we meet." Caesar was beaming with joy.
"...I can only hope that he will never remember who he is. Otherwise, I can't imagine what kind of scene it would be if he knew that you had treated him as a pet and named him and ordered him around." Lu Mingfei was no longer able to complain. It seemed that from the moment she set foot in Japan, the dazzling student council president was gone forever, replaced by a cheerful idiot who would pat the other person's shoulder and shout "A Yuan" even at this moment.
But when you think about it carefully, you always feel that it is quite pitiful for Gen Chisheng to become like this. The young master of the underworld who was once a powerful figure and could rival the entire group of corpse guards, is now an amnesiac child who allows others to order him around. When Lu Mingfei first entered the door and saw Gen Chisheng's dull face, she almost didn't recognize him. It was hard to imagine that the young master in a windbreaker would have such an expression. He is a bit like Eri, who is also one of the eight families.
Oh, right, Eri!
"I suddenly remembered something very important..." Lu Mingfei opened her eyes wide, but didn't know how to start. "Yuan Zhisheng is not the first counterattack trump card we have in our hands."
"What's the meaning?"
"The day I was playing in Akihabara, I met a lost girl. Her name was Eri, Uesugi Eri. She had never been exposed to the outside world, nor had she received a systematic education. Her mind was as pure as a piece of paper. To be honest, when I saw how Gen Chisei behaved after he lost his memory, I really felt that he looked a bit like Eri."
"Oh..." Caesar showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, "So you didn't come back that night, and you were with Eri?"
"Yes, I took her to book a hotel, and that night I found out her true identity."
Caesar turned his head to look at Chu Zihang, nudged Chu Zihang with his shoulder, raised his eyebrows and looked gossipy. The meaning was obvious. Your girlfriend didn't want to be with , but slept in the same bed with a beautiful girl who passed by. Chu Jun, you have a huge green grassland on your head!
Caesar actually didn't intend to think in this direction, but he had read Lu Mingfei's information. The forum of Shilan Middle School said that she was a scumbag who had played with other girls' feelings. Caesar was unacceptable at first, but today he heard Lu Mingfei admit it herself. Such a decadent life was really unacceptable. He didn't expect that classmate Lu, who looked pure on the face, was actually a king of women who could get along with everyone!
