Volume 3 Hello, Eri Chapter 260: The Cat Substitutes for the Prince (I)
Caesar spent a few seconds observing the guest who walked out right after them. He almost jumped up in surprise. Although she used makeup to conceal the first impression, her eyebrows and features were picturesque and her appearance was delicate and charming. She was just like the super mixed-blood source Chisheng who led the Japanese underworld... but a female version.
Chu Zihang subconsciously drew his sword but missed. Caesar's wrist was bulging with veins, and he used a typical fighting shackle. If they were not mistaken, Yuan Zhisheng was still doubting his life in the small room upstairs, and now he appeared here and teased them with a smile on his face. There was no doubt that he had recovered his memory. But I don't know why he had to dress up as a woman. He looked pretty good...
Lu Mingfei crossed her hands and held the two great gods, one on the left and one on the right, with a relaxed look on her face that I was used to: "Don't be so nervous, the more heroic one is the older brother, and the more cute one is the younger brother, not the younger sister. Do you need me to introduce them to you? This is Yuan Zhisheng's younger brother, Yuan Zhinu."
"Yes, I'm the younger brother." Yuan Zhinu said with a smile. One of the greatest pleasures in his life is to appear in this look and see other people's surprised expressions. It has to be said that Chu Zihang and Caesar's current performance is the kind he likes very much. It's unbelievable, but he still can't help but take a few more glances. So Yuan Zhinu worked harder to release her feminine power. Every move she made was like a teenage girl, and her bracelet shone like silver.
"Your hobby is very special." Caesar said. The nobleman would not easily comment on other people's preferences, especially in front of others. Even if Yuan Zhinv liked women's clothing and was even willing to go out for prostitution, it was none of his business.
" If I remember correctly, Yuan Zhisheng said that his brother was dead." Chu Zihang said slowly. He also remembered the sentence that Yuan Zhisheng mentioned occasionally when they were chatting in the ramen shop that night.
"I have indeed died once. Most of the ghosts that crawl back from the well are female ghosts like Sadako, right? So I live in the appearance of a girl, because I am the evil ghost that came back from the well." Genjitsu made a gesture of invitation and bowed slightly to invite everyone to come into the store to talk. This action was very realistic and reminded people of the shrine maidens welcoming guests in the shrine. He was not from Takama-ga-hara, but at this moment he was more like the owner here.
There were no customers in the store anymore. The booths and the bar were undergoing the final cleaning, with only a few emerald green LED lights left. They sat down around the table closest to the bar. Yuan Zhinv took the initiative and walked into the bar, took out a bottle of whiskey, and gracefully and skillfully made a cocktail for each of them and placed it in front of them before taking their seats.
"Takamagahara lacks a good bartender." Genjiro held up her glass of wine towards the light, the full glass reflecting brilliant colors. "It would be a waste to just use up all the good wine here."
"What do you want from us?" Caesar asked first. Lu Mingfei seemed to know Yuan Zhinu, and Chu Zihang was not the kind of guy who was good at gaining the upper hand with words. At this time, he, the team leader, had to be the leader of the team.
"First, let me introduce myself in detail, so that it will be easier for you to understand my position." Gen Zhinv said, "My real name is Gen Zhinv, you can also call me by my flower name Fengjian Liuli. I am the Dragon King among the fierce ghosts, the second person, and Gen Zhisheng is my twin brother."
"The Demons?" This was the first time Caesar heard this name.
"You can understand them as the mortal enemy of the Snake Eight Clan. In Japan, the Snake Eight Clan is undoubtedly the supreme power in the underworld, but their bloodline is not stable. The family uses a bloodline processing method similar to the secret party. Every child with a bloodline will be tested when they are young. If a problem is found, they will be taken away and locked up in the mountains. They will spend decades using many methods to try to correct this person back to normal. If they can't do it, then this person can only disappear quietly from the world one day."
"Are you one of them?"
"Didn't I tell you? I am also an evil ghost, an evil ghost with unstable bloodline, so my brother personally thrust the sword into my chest, sacrificing his own brother for the greater good. He has loved watching Ultraman since he was a child, and he thinks he is a messenger of justice. Of course, if there are monsters in the world, he has to fight them, even if they are his own younger brother."
Yuan Zhinv smiled a little sadly. As he said this, he lowered his head and stroked his chest, like a heartbroken girl who had been heartbroken.
"I haven't really been to that kind of prison, but many people in the Fierce Ghost Clan came out of there. The people in this organization are all guys with unstable bloodlines. The Fierce Ghost Clan will also organize prison breaks to rescue the children who are under surveillance. On one side are people who want to lock themselves up, and on the other side are people who are willing to rescue themselves. It is not difficult to explain what choice those children will make. This is how the Fierce Ghost Clan grew and became stronger. They regard the Eight Snake Qi Families who oppressed them as their enemies, and they are eager to evolve and obtain pure bloodlines, because they believe that all the injustices about themselves are due to the discrimination of the Eight Snake Qi Families and the damned evil ghost bloodline."
"You used the word 'they'." Chu Zihang keenly noticed the stance behind Yuan Zhinu's words, "You claim to be the second-in-command of the Ghost Clan, but you separate yourself from the Ghost Clan."
"The information says that Chu Jun is a man of few words, but I don't think so." Yuan Zhinv smiled faintly, "Yes, I do think so. The Fierce Ghost Clan is nothing worth reminiscing about to me. I don't agree with their ideas. I need them only because I have such a group of people so that I can have the power to compete with the Eight Snake Families. Not long ago, you all participated in the Longyuan Project and went to the depths of the trench to destroy Takama-ga-hara in the deep sea. This plan was supported by the Japanese branch. One of the reasons was that there was a way to evolve bloodlines there, which was what the Fierce Ghost Clan had always desired. Therefore, the Japanese branch led by the Eight Snake Families was willing to nod and cooperate with Kassel. Think about the attitude of the entire Japan in the past, and you will feel that I did not lie to you."
Caesar was silent for a while, and then briefly analyzed and reviewed what Minamoto Chitose said: "Then it sounds like you are obviously not on our side. You are the enemy of the Snake Eight Clan."
"But you are the same now." Yuan Zhinv shrugged. "My brother is missing, and you have shown up to the police. Of course, the Snake Family will think that my brother's disappearance is related to you. Let me tell you something you don't know yet. Principal Ange has arrived in Japan. The Snake Family's search for you will only expand. You have all the facts in your hands. They don't want you to have any contact with Principal Ange. The entire Japanese branch is trying to get out of Cassel's control. In the worst case, it is not impossible to assassinate Principal Ange."
"No one in this world can assassinate that old man ." Lu Mingfei, who had been listening, spoke up. As a person who had personally experienced time zero, she knew very well the principal's true strength.
"Don't be too absolute about everything. Japan is a place where good and bad people mix together. There are more secrets than you can imagine." Yuan Zhinv held her chin with one hand and stirred her cocktail with a straw, as if she was playing some dangerous game. "This is different from the mixed-blood world you are used to. The bloodline of the entire Japan comes from the White King, the noble White Emperor. We call her God. The White King is the Dragon King who controls the spiritual elements and can control the minds of others. Even if he exceeds the critical blood limit, his mind is still clear. This kind of mixed-blood is a super mixed-blood, the future young master of the Snake Eight Clan, my brother Yuan Zhisheng."
"Are you kidding?" Caesar frowned.
"Of course I know that a few words alone won't make you believe me immediately. This is exactly why I came here tonight, to prove that I can be on your side."
Yuan Zhinv threw a document on the table. It was some photos. The picture showed a breeding pond like an aquarium, but what was kept in it were not beautiful sea fish, but large aquatic animals with human bodies and snake tails, and pale faces. Some of the human-like faces were expressionless, while some had the corners of their mouths raised, as if they were smiling.
They are not all the same. Most of them have long tails and scales. Some of the human-faced fish also have incredible organs, huge sharp claws, knife-shaped bony fins, and when they breathe, the cracks in their necks open, revealing deep red, fish gill-like structures.
The eyes of the Cassel trio widened at the same time, because they had all seen this kind of thing. In the depths of the Japan Trench, when the ancient city was about to be destroyed by a nuclear bomb, countless corpses that emerged from there looked like this.
"You can guess where these things come from." Yuan Zhinu's smile was cold, and it was obvious that he didn't like this kind of thing.
No one answered, because this question came without warning. From the water tank in the picture, it can be seen that this is a special breeding farm. Who dares to raise such a thing secretly? If there is a problem, the whole farm will become a living hell.
"The answer is Genji Heavy Industries." Minamoto Chitose answered her own question. "The Iron Dome Temple of Ganliu Research Institute is directly connected to overseas. Using cargo submarines, these things can be freely transported in and out of the sea."
"Why do they keep such things? Doesn't Tachibana Masamune know how dangerous the corpse guards are?"
"Strictly speaking, this is similar to the Shikigami, but not exactly the same. It is a variant of Deadpool, and the genetic sample comes from the Shikigami itself. Mr. Caesar, your question is a bit too stupid. I like a saying of Mr. Lu Xun: Never be afraid to speculate on people's hearts with the worst malice."
"Because this is the one raised by Tachibana Masamune!" Caesar suddenly came to his senses. As the executor of the Longyuan Plan, he subconsciously placed the leader of the Japanese branch who supported the plan on the side of Cassel's camp. But Minamoto no Chikyou's words reminded him that if this breeding pond was in Genji Heavy Industries, then who else except the heads of the Snake Eight Families could have such a big hand?
"I think my dear brother probably doesn't know yet. He trusts his adoptive father too much. People who claim to be righteous are often easily used by people with ulterior motives." Minamoto Chidori said softly, "Although I don't know why Tachibana Masamune cultivated these things, he definitely has no good intentions. Even the secret party doesn't dare to do this. It's like researching nuclear bombs in your own basement. One mistake and the entire Genji Heavy Industries will be doomed. Considering its position in the city center, Tokyo may also die with it. A deadpool like this can cut from the Imperial Palace to the University of Tokyo."
Genjitsu folded her hands on the table and looked around the Cassel team with some expectation: "Tachibana Masamune's behavior has undoubtedly broken the Abraham Blood Covenant stipulated by the Secret Party. No hybrids may conduct private activities related to dragon genes in the name of research. All research on the secrets of the dragon race must be conducted reasonably and safely under the supervision of the Secret Party. The power of that race is too mysterious, and no one can bear the consequences of such indulgence. Then, as people from Cassel Academy, when you know that Tachibana Masamune has violated the Secret Party's charter, should you have the obligation to eliminate him?"
The trio exchanged glances, and Lu Mingfei understood what Gen Chinuo had said to her before. If these photos could be proven to be real and related to Tachibana Masamune, then they did have this obligation, even if they themselves were already in prison. This was something that any secret party half-blood would be bound to do, and it would even earn them more credits.
"How can we be sure that you are not a trap?" Caesar asked, "All the identities and information are from your side."
"This is exactly one of my goals tonight. As long as you trust me, everything will be easy." Genjitsu used her fingers to take up some of the wine and drew a few horizontal lines on the tablecloth. "You may not know that Takamagahara is an old building built before World War II. At that time, Tokyo City did not have sufficient urban facilities. One of the entrances to the Iron Dome Temple system is right under your feet."
Caesar looked at Yuan Zhinu's diagram calmly. Chu Zihang and Caesar exchanged glances and quickly reached a consensus.
"Okay, you don't have to draw anymore." Caesar reached out and held Yuan Zhinv down. "I can trust you once. Anyone can gain my trust, but if he betrays me, it will be difficult to gain my trust again."
"So you're such an easy-going person?" Yuan Zhinv was a little surprised. "To be honest, I thought the you on the poster was the real you."
"What poster?"
"A cold-blooded killer and a domineering nobleman. You should have a chance to see them in the future."
"Oh...it has nothing to do with those. I'm willing to believe you just because I saw the schematic diagram you drew." Caesar took a look at the disturbed water stains on the table. It only took him a few seconds to see that the source girl's drawing was undoubtedly correct.
"We also know that the manhole cover in Takamagahara can lead directly to the Iron Dome Temple." Chu Zihang said, "and we have already made preparations."
