Volume 3 Hello, Eri Chapter 295: The Reincarnation of the Royal Blood (I)
In the back street of Tokyo University, Uesugi Yue had just seen off two diners when he turned on the small TV on the shelf again. A graceful girl in revealing clothes swayed her waist. He picked up a newspaper and pretended to be very serious, as if he was concerned about world affairs, but in fact his eyes were still fixed on the TV.
Some people say that men are a lustful species all their lives, from the energetic boys in adolescence who like to see the traces of underwear straps on their female classmates' clothes, to the unruly gray-haired old men who will touch the buttocks of office ladies when they walk on the street.
It is not known whether this is the truth, but in Japan, these phenomena are particularly serious. Many people think that this is because this island country has been living a too depressed life since ancient times. After being depressed for a long time, it will naturally become more ferocious when it explodes. Modern society has given them good ways and reasons. The underworld, Kabukicho, and the custom industry culture are all good evidence.
Uesugi Yue doesn't have any special pursuits or research. He simply likes big breasts, thin waists and big butts. That's all. It will be the same even when he is old.
The black business car glided over silently. Uesugi Yue didn't even turn his head to look. Angé opened the curtain and came in, placing an umbrella and a heavy suitcase on the table: "Tonkotsu ramen, and two marinated eggs."
"Why are you here again?" Uesugi Yue rolled his eyes at Ange in annoyance, "I thought we agreed not to see each other again from now on! You are a busy man, a great dragon-slayer pioneer, you should be doing your great deeds! How come you come to my place for supper and don't pay? Starting tonight, ramen will be charged, 800 yuan a bowl, and each braised egg will be charged an additional 100 yuan!"
"You're so stingy. If I didn't know, I would have thought I was bargaining with an old man in the vegetable market. You're wasting half an hour just for two cents." Angers slapped a stack of 10,000 yuan bills on the table. "No need to change. From today on, I'll keep the account with you. You can deduct the amount from this bill according to how much you eat."
"It seems like I should say this bowl of ramen is 8,000 yuan." Uesugi Yue glanced at the stack of ten-thousand-yuan bills. There were at least dozens of them. If Angers ate here every night until next year, the price would be 800 yuan per serving.
"Have you learned to raise the price? Look how capable you are. To be honest, a ramen shop like yours will never be on my list of restaurants. In Japan, probably only Sakamoto's hand-rolled sushi will be something I like." said Angé.
"Even if what I made was pig food, didn't a distinguished guest like you who loves Michelin still come to eat in the rain? Do you have the urge to scream while eating pig food?" Uesugi Yue threw the noodles into the pot.
"No problem, Ang Ang. And you didn't add enough noodles. I want three servings." Angé reminded.
Before he finished speaking, Yuan Zhinv and Yuan Zhisheng pulled back the curtain and came in, sitting down on either side of Angers. They drove here together, and temporary parking was not allowed on the street. There happened to be a police officer on duty there, so it took Yuan Zhisheng some time to get the parking space.
"You even brought guests with you. Your students?" Uesugi Yue stared at the faces of the Yuan brothers for a few seconds. "I think I've seen them somewhere."
"I've eaten ramen here with three people before." Yuan Zhisheng nodded, "A foreigner with blond hair, a girl in a kimono, and a guy with facial paralysis."
"Yes, yes, yes! A very special combination!" Uesugi Yue finally remembered, showing a look of sudden enlightenment, unlike when he was with Angers, he was still smiling happily, "After that, the girl came here often , and brought her friends with her."
Yuan Zhisheng was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect such a coincidence. In those days, the family had spared no effort to search all over Tokyo to find Eri, but he didn't expect that she was sitting with Lu Mingfei in the ramen shop they had been to before.
"Are you Uesugi Yue?" asked Genjiro, using honorifics rarely.
At Genji Heavy Industries, after Genji Chisheng mentioned Uesugi Yue, Angers expressed interest and wanted to bring them to meet someone. Now they met and found out that it was the old man from the ramen shop they visited last time. At that time, the old man said something about what Genji Chisheng said, like a former gang member. Now Genji Chisheng noticed that Uesugi Yue's cuffs were faintly exposed with a blue pattern, which was a gang tattoo. He boldly guessed that this person was Uesugi Yue.
"Ange, you fucking bastard!" This question seemed to have touched Uesugi Yue's sore spot, making him furious. He tore off the cloth on his head and looked like he was going to hit Ange, "Didn't you agree to keep it a secret for me? Why did the person you brought here start asking questions right away!"
"To be honest, I didn't tell them that you were Uesugi Yue. I just said that I would bring them to meet someone, and he was smart enough to guess it. You can't blame me for breaking the contract, right?" Angé shrugged, looking innocent.
"Brother just saw your tattoo." Genji pointed at Uesugi Yue's sleeve. In the eyes of ordinary people, this thing might just make them think that this old man is very fashionable and has a young heart. But in the eyes of gangsters, it is easy to judge the whole original appearance from that corner. It is a very high-level tattoo, a corner of the evil devil pattern. Only gangsters with a high status or who have made great contributions are qualified to leave such a tattoo on their bodies.
"As far as I know, the bloodline of the Uesugi family has been extinct for a long time. Are you really from the Uesugi family?" Yuan Zhisheng sat upright, and he couldn't help but be solemn when talking to his senior, especially the person in front of him gave him a strange sense of familiarity.
"If possible, I really don't want anyone to call me that." Uesugi Yue was really out of temper. Ever since he met Angers again, his peaceful life seemed destined to be disrupted by this old man.
He sat back slowly, staring at the steam from the pot in a daze. Ange handed him a Nissan cigarette. Uesugi Yue silently took it and put it in his mouth, then took out a lighter from under the table and lit it.
"I am the last head of the Uesugi family." He said slowly.
"Then how did Uesugi Erie appear?" Genjiro was very curious.
Uesugi Yue smiled disdainfully and waved the cigarette in his hand at Angers: "Is that why you brought them here? I told you long ago that those old guys would definitely do this. Find someone with a good enough bloodline, give him the bloodline of the three inner families, and then declare to the outside world that this is our new emperor. As long as the heads of the eight families and the old guys maintain a consistent attitude, no one will know the truth, and the Sheqi Eight Families can be passed down forever in this way."
"That's right." Minamoto Chisei's voice was very light. This involved his origin, which should have been a shameful thing, but he said it very frankly, "Eri and I are the same. We were given the surnames Minamoto and Uesugi after being confirmed to have high-purity dragon blood. We are not the true descendants of the three great families. This should have been the truth, and the people in the family did let me know this, but later they claimed to me that I really had the orthodox Minamoto family bloodline, and the results of the DNA test showed a match. Eri also did have the bloodline genes of the Uesugi family. I think Tachibana Masamune might not know why this happened. He discussed with me more than once, saying that maybe Eri and I were actually someone's illegitimate children, a bit like China's Princess Return of the Pearl."
"This is impossible!" Uesugi Yue said in a deep voice, "The bloodline of the three royal families has been completely cut off at my place! From now on, there will be no new Shadow Emperor!"
"Until you tell us what you know, none of us can make a judgment." Yuan Zhisheng was unusually calm.
He questioned Ange with his eyes, and Ange responded with his eyes and nodded in agreement, which meant that Yuan Zhisheng no longer had to worry about any information leaks in the following conversation. Ange guaranteed the credibility of Uesugi Yue.
Uesugi Yue knew that he had lost his composure. He was silent for a while, then took out another bottle of the same wine that he had treated Ange to last time from under the counter. However, this time he did not share it with anyone, but drank it all by himself.
Everyone could see the depression and unhappiness in his heart. People with stories are always like this. Especially when those stories are not things that make people happy, it would be particularly difficult to pry open the person's mouth.
Uesugi Yue slammed the empty bottle on the table and drank the whole bottle in one breath. Only in this way could he speak properly. Alcohol is the best numbing agent and the best psychological comfort. With his bloodline, this little bit of alcohol can't really play a big role. It's just psychological comfort for him. He feels that this way he can speak the secrets in his heart without restraint.
"Let's start with the difference between the Inner Three Families and the Outer Five Families." Uesugi Yue said, "The number of people in the Inner Three Families is far less than that of the Outer Five Families. There are a hundred people in the Outer Five Families, but there is only one person in the Inner Three Families. However, the Inner Three Families are the families that can truly give birth to an emperor. They are descendants of the three priest families of Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susanoo, and have the purest bloodline of the White King. This bloodline will gradually weaken as it is passed down from generation to generation, but there are exceptions to everything. Among a hundred children of the Inner Three Families, one will be a true emperor, born with a bloodline comparable to the first generation."
Yuan Zhisheng listened quietly. He was already the current head of the family, but when he was a child, people in the family seldom told him these stories with rich origins. They only told him that as the new emperor of the family, he was destined to shoulder countless responsibilities.
"My dad is a mediocre person. His greatest contribution may be meeting my mom. Her name is Charlotte Chen, and she is a Chinese-French mixed-race. Their story is not the main point, so I will just briefly describe it. My dad used his personality charm to make my mom, who was still a novice nun at the time, betray the Lord, and the two eloped late at night. This was a great elopement purely for love, and it betrayed the Catholic Church and the highest family of the Japanese underworld. The Catholic Church was quite magnanimous and did not come to punish them, but it was different for the underworld. My dad's bloodline was precious, and his wife had to be a good girl from the inner three families. How could she get together with a foreigner? The family sent a ninja from the Fuma family to France, intending to kill my mother and take back my dad."
"I didn't expect the story to start with a romantic love story." Angers smiled, "It seems that the emperor at that time didn't have a very good life. Your family must hope that he sleeps with women every day so that there is a higher possibility of giving birth to a new emperor."
"You have a misunderstanding here. My father is not even the emperor. He is just one of the three great families. However, the descendants of every great family may become the emperor, so the marriage of the three great families is strictly restricted." Uesugi Yue corrected the mistake of Angers, an outsider. "The people of the Fuma family came to our door. I was not born at that time. In order to protect me, my father threatened with his own life and forced the Fuma family to give up killing my mother. The price was that he had to be taken back to Japan to continue to find a way to have a baby. My mother stayed in France and raised me with the money my father left. It would be difficult for her to live alone, so she found a way to conceal the fact that she had a child and returned to the church. She placed me in the orphanage to raise me as an orphan, unknown to anyone."
"My bloodline awakened one afternoon. There was no sign beforehand. The destructive words destroyed three blocks. I was buried under the rubble with a bloody head. I was rescued by the locals as a survivor, but I knew that it was actually my fault. I didn't dare to tell anyone, including my mother. Just when I was in a state of panic, the family's messenger appeared in front of me and said that I was their emperor. It turned out that they had been sending people to monitor my situation. My first awakening showed extremely high bloodline power, which made them ecstatic."
"I can see that you followed them back to Japan immediately. No child would refuse such an adventure." Genjiro said. This reminded him of the first time he awakened his bloodline as a child.
"Yes, a child who can't even recognize his mother properly from childhood to adulthood will of course feel that he is the most unlucky person in the world. But suddenly someone seems to be so obedient to you and says that thousands of people will become your subjects. What little boy can refuse? I can't wait to see the so-called Eastern country. My mother is also very happy and thinks that my father and I can be reunited. But she is unwilling to go with me. She is a devout Christian and has put all her past on me. She no longer looks back and only looks forward." said Uesugi Yue.
"I arrived in Japan and found out that my father had died of illness a few years after he came back. The number of people in the three royal families was decreasing, and the eight families of Sheqi needed new blood, and I happened to be what they wanted most. With this, I became the new emperor of the eight families of . The ceremony of enthronement was very grand, and I felt like Emperor William next door. After that, I was treated as well as my father, with eight girls who claimed to be my wives serving me, and trying to seduce me to bed every day. But I didn't like them. I grew up in France and liked European life. At that time, Japan was just a small country rising in East Asia. Compared with the old power France, it was really insignificant. I walked on the long street and looked at the gangsters living in the shadows. They were respectful to me with smiles on their faces, but from my height, they looked like elephants looking at ants. I could see that they were malnourished and didn't eat well, so I disliked this country even more. It was different from the mysterious East I imagined."
