Volume 3 Hello, Eri Chapter 278: Turning Enemies into Friends (Part 2)
That was the spirit of Yuan Zhisheng's words, Jianyu Thunder God was at work. Even if he was not in an open-air environment, he could still create swirling lightning like Jun Yan. Not only did he form a closed area that would make anything that stepped into it feel like being struck by lightning, but one could always vaguely feel the high temperature and lightning on his spider blade, and when he swung it, he could leave white traces of fire in the air out of thin air, as if he had cut open a corner of reality.
The atmosphere in the shop was unusually cold. This was a rare moment of anger for Yuan Zhisheng. He actually lost his memory and was even brought to the gigolo shop by Caesar and his friends. When Caesar pushed open the door and said "Yuan" as usual tonight, Yuan Zhisheng suddenly woke up with veins popping out, grabbed the Spider Cutter and rushed to Caesar's face.
Caesar was not prepared, but he had Gen Chi-nü with him. He asked Gen Chi-nü to meet Gen Chi-sei. Gen Chi-nü took her brother's attack. Gen Chi-sei was surprised, but he didn't say a word. The blade in his hand spun and tore open the door. He fought with Gen Chi-nü all the way to the booth downstairs. The whole Takama-ga-hara seemed to be crumbling. Chu Zihang and Caesar tried to rush over to pull the brothers apart. Gen Chi-sei used the spider to cut into the ground and released Takemiya Thunder God, isolating everyone from outside.
Gen Chishio's outfit was very gorgeous, a purple leopard print suit, covered with reflective sequins, earrings and necklaces were surprisingly large, and every step she took made a rustling sound like a wind chime, and the cherry red river of oblivion was like a bloody mad knife, silently cutting the carpet when she walked. This was because he had just joined Takamagahara today and had just completed his debut. Caesar said that if you want to join us, you have to take this step, so that we are of the same kind, and then we can take him to see Gen Chishio.
The two brothers walked slowly around a circle, as if this was a stage, and the actors were speaking the lines they had prepared. Genjiro moved silently, like a girl dancing lightly, while Genjiro was as steady as a kendo warrior, and every step he took showed his unique strength and momentum.
"We haven't seen each other for eight years, brother." Genji Chinu said softly. The way he looked at Genji Chisei was not like an enemy at all. The glimmer of admiration in his eyes seemed brighter than the spotlights of Takamagahara. "I always miss you. Every year when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, I will secretly come to Tokyo and look at the Genji Heavy Industries building from afar. I know you are there, which makes me feel as if I can see you. I wonder if you occasionally catch a glimpse of me in the distance when you feel tired and stand in front of the French window."
"It's a pity that I never like standing on a high place and looking down at low things. It makes me feel bad because I used to be the one standing in the mud and looking up at the stars. Later, I became the stars, but it didn't feel good at all. I always gain more than I lose." Yuan Zhisheng said, "Sometimes I wonder, if I didn't choose to leave the town, but stayed to suffer with you, would the ending be different? Maybe I could hold you down the moment you turned into a demon and slap you wildly until you woke up?"
"Do you still think I am an evil ghost that you should kill?"
"I never felt that I did anything wrong that day, but I have never forgotten that day either." Yuan Zhisheng cut the spider horizontally, "How did you survive? I clearly put the knife into your heart, and I lit a big fire before leaving, wanting to burn all the evidence, so that you would at least be defined as missing. We grew up together in this town and knew a lot of people. I don't want them to say that Yuan Zhisheng was the hateful murderer later."
"Tachibana Masamune," said Minamoto Chino, "It was your father who rescued me. He followed you all the way, but you didn't notice. After you left, he rescued me and sent me to the Demon Clan, where I grew up and even became the second in command of the Demon Clan."
"This is impossible." Yuan Zhisheng said firmly.
"Yeah, of course you would think it's impossible." Minamoto Chidori smiled, "Tachibana Masamune is the leader of the Snake Eight Families, and he does everything himself. He trains you step by step, and makes you the future ruler of the Snake Eight Families. That is the position of the underworld emperor that countless people covet, but he gave it to you. Of course you think he is your dear father."
His face darkened. "But that's how he can control you, making you always believe in him and be willing to serve him. At the bottom of the Genji Heavy Industries building, there is a secret Deadpool breeding pool. As long as you are willing to go back and take a look, you will know that the only person who can build equipment and venues in such a place is Tachibana Masamune. Now he is no longer in the Snake Eight Clan, because we discovered his secret and forced him to put down the mask he had carefully prepared for many years. His partner is the leader of the fierce ghosts that the Snake Eight Clan is pursuing, King General Herzog! Why haven't the Snake Eight Clan been able to completely wipe out the fierce ghosts for many years? The answer is too simple. If the leaders of the two families had shaken hands and made peace long ago, even if the entire Snake Eight Clan was an emperor like you, brother, it would be useless!"
"Do you think I will listen to you?" There was a sharp light like a sword in Yuan Zhisheng's eyes.
"I don't think so. If I can convince you of what I've experienced over the years with just a few words, it would be too easy. Then I wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. I know what kind of person you are, brother. You are very reasonable. All you need for anything is evidence."
Yuan Zhinv spoke softly, as if a ghost was lurking. "Do you still remember that year when the newspaper said that the Leo meteor shower was coming and Japan was the best popular observation point? I saw you talking to me so excitedly, and I was also infected by you, thinking that the meteor shower must be the most beautiful thing in the world. We spent a long time preparing, borrowing blankets from the gym, stealing telescopes from the astronomy teaching room, using the money saved from skipping meals to buy a compass and hiking shoes from a small store, and packing up the cheapest plum rice in the cafeteria and putting it in our bags. We climbed the mountain road for three hours and climbed to the highest peak, but in the evening, the mountain suddenly became foggy, and the sunny day turned into a cloudy day."
He sighed, "I was very sad and almost cried, but you encouraged me by saying that the clouds would soon disperse and we would definitely be able to see the meteor shower because we are Leos. The Leonid meteor shower is the largest meteor shower in the world and it will appear for all Leos. At that time I really believed it. You gave me half of the plum rice and said that the clouds would disperse after eating the plum rice. Isn't that the case with all the clouds in the mountains?"
Yuan Zhisheng listened quietly with no expression on his face. He also remembered that day.
"There wasn't much plum rice, and I ate very slowly, even one grain at a time in the end, because that half portion of plum rice was a tool for me to count time, and I was afraid that time would come to an end while I was counting, and the things I expected would never come to me. Finally, it rained, and the rain poured down heavily. The clouds never dispersed, and we didn't get the meteor shower that belonged to us. At that time, I felt that my life was probably like today, with heavy rain and rolling dark clouds from beginning to end, and there would never be sunshine or morning star that belonged to me." Yuan Zhinv said softly.
"You were always so sensitive when you were a child, and sometimes I would get very annoyed with you." Yuan Zhisheng said that admitting in person that hating someone is a kind of malice, but now he says it very frankly.
"Because I am sensitive, I can understand all this, even from a look, a movement, or a word." Yuan Zhinv lowered her head, her hair covering his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression. "But you never abandoned me, did you? Whenever someone bullied me, you would always be behind me. I just had to bravely punch them, and you would guide me. If I couldn't win, you would stand in front of me, and while you were beating me, you would shout, 'Watch out, Zhinv, remember to deal with this kind of bastard like this next time! Beat those country boys who laughed at me for being a girl until they screamed and begged for mercy.'"
Yuan Zhinu suddenly raised her head, like a girl who had admired someone for a long time finally saw her prince charming. "At that time, I really thought you were so handsome and cool. Brother is the most important person in my heart. As long as you are in the world, every day is happy! Later, you left me, but I still remember you, because I know that the path you chose is definitely not what you love, but you still resolutely walked on it without intending to look back. At first, your wish was just to hope that I could climb out of that small mud pit. But the underworld is not such a simple thing. You have a new home, power, but also more responsibilities and burdens. When we were young, we were in poverty but could still laugh happily. Now we are no longer so sad, but you are scarred. Every time I see your photo, there is only heavy fatigue between my brows."
"Stop talking." Yuan Zhisheng said, "I don't want to hear it."
Yuan Zhinv ignored him and pressed her chest. "I feel like someone is grabbing me here. I really want to do something for you, but I don't know what I can do. You told me that getting into the University of Tokyo would be the best reward, so I worked hard according to your instructions and got first place in every exam! But hard work doesn't always pay off, and wishes don't always come true if you work hard. When I have free time, I will stay with those girls. I think they are really cute, have nice voices, and look good. Beautiful skirts are what every boy likes. My heart is filled with ugly greed. I envy them and feel jealous of them. I think if I were a girl, I would be brave enough to say I love you loudly."
"So you killed them." Yuan Zhisheng pursed his lips slightly.
"No! I didn't!" Genjiro screamed as if her reverse scale was touched, "I just approached them and made friends with them! I learned from them how to put on makeup and match clothes, what kind of colors would be more lovable, and what kind of style is a hurdle that no boy can escape. I was happy that I was getting closer and closer to them. I don't deny that I was still jealous of them at that time, but I never had the intention to kill them! It was Tachibana Masamune who deliberately seduced me to do that!"
His eyes were bloodshot, like a demon. "Every month, a box of fruit beer is sent from Tokyo. Your name is the sender. I regard it as a consolation to myself. The beer tastes good and can effectively relieve my stress and depression. I think it is some kind of health product. I have never doubted it and have never mentioned it to you. But later, I gradually realized that something was wrong. When I was with those girls, I seemed to be able to smell the seductive aroma coming from them. It was a poison more powerful than hormones. It would make my heart surge and I wanted to hug them into my body. I instinctively wanted to resist, but I couldn't get rid of that kind of alcohol. It was like some kind of drug. I didn't have enough willpower. I would do it again and again until I was completely sunk, and then hugged the most beautiful girl with my own hands... until I could never look back."
"I will kill Tachibana Masamune! I will kill him no matter where he hides!!! It's because of him that we can never go back to the way we were before!" Tears streamed down Genjiro's face. He looked like a wandering ghost. His crying mixed with anger and roar would frighten people at one moment, but at another moment make people feel sorry for him. Finally, he leaned weakly on the chair, holding his cheek and crying like a lost child.
There was silence all around. The humpback whale led the gigolos to become the best audience. He had come here to check what was wrong because of the previous noise. He didn't expect to catch up with the meeting of the Genji brothers and listen to the whole process. Although he didn't know what the names they mentioned meant and what their identities were, who among those who could work here didn't have the highest emotional intelligence in the world? It took only a few minutes to roughly restore the past stories from the words of the Genji girl. That child was an excellent actor. She could move people around with just a casual word, not to mention that she was telling her life story with all her strength in front of her own brother? Not to mention a group of gigolos, even a turtle would cry here today.
"What's going on? Why are you all standing here pretending to be willow trees? Are you going to receive guests tomorrow with dark circles under your eyes, you little bastards?"
A girl came down the stairs, wearing a grey suit and black high heels. The diamond pendant on her right ear danced in the light. Everyone looked up at her, their eyes involuntarily following the swaying and flamboyant diamond earring.
The humpback whale rushed forward and stood beside her respectfully, smiling attentively like a pug and whispering close to her. This action alone explained Su Enxi's identity as the boss lady.
The gigolos could not help but look at each other in bewilderment. Some of them had been working here for several years. The one in charge of the store had always been Humpback Whale, who had the title of male flower arrangement king and could open a beer with his bare hands. At first glance, he looked like an ace fighter of the underworld. But they had never heard of a person like a boss lady in the store.
A girl who is interested in opening a gigolo parlor must be a powerful female warrior, but this proprietress is surprisingly pure, with a forest girl-like face and long hair that falls naturally. She has no makeup on and doesn't look like someone who runs a gigolo parlor. She looks more like someone who runs a bank. When people walk past this place, it seems that even the air around them becomes a little fresher because of her appearance.
