Chapter 55 14
As we all know - the flute is meant to be played.
Preliminary summary: 6-year-old Rai did not want to become a killer. After her telekinesis ability was exposed to her family, she did not compromise her family's request for her "protection". Therefore, she was beaten by Shiba and chose to be exiled to Meteor Street.
And signed a three-year contract with him.
If Rai can survive alone in Meteor Street for three years without killing anyone, then after coming back, Sheba will unconditionally agree to any request Rai makes.
On the contrary, if Rai can't hold on and wants to end this trial early, and blows the flute given to Rai by Shiba at any time before the agreed deadline, the enemy Hakka will immediately dispatch personnel to take Rai home, but from then on
From now on, Rai can no longer carry out such resistance and must unconditionally obey the arrangements of his family.
From the content of the three-year agreement above, we can see the cunningness of the adults in the negotiation. This is an unfair deal. In a difficult environment like Meteor Street, it is extremely difficult to survive three years with original intention.
Sheba is using Meteor Street to force Rai to compromise with the world.
Even if he is lucky to survive, Rai can only get a place to breathe from Siba at best. There is only one request. Siba can play word games and relax Rai's discipline on something, but he
He may not strictly demand Rai on other matters.
Completing the three-year agreement may not necessarily lead to Lai getting what she wants from the enemy, but if it is not completed, Lai will no longer have the confidence to resist in front of the enemy, and she will have no self.
's puppet.
There is never any fairness in this cruel world, and only the strong have the right to decide the direction of things. This is an extremely harsh trial for Rai, and Rai has no right to negotiate for more chips.
Now that three years have not come, Rai no longer wants to deal with it. Strictly speaking, this trial ended in failure as early as a year ago when she left Meteor Street to go to other worlds.
Rai didn't know if her movements in Meteor Street would be tracked by the enemy Hakka in real time. If she stayed in another world for three years and then returned to the enemy Hakka. Perhaps out of her father's care for his daughter, it was more likely that Siba
His rigorous personality will definitely prompt him to secretly investigate how she spent the three years in Meteor Street, and if there were two years of blank information that he could not find, such a big mystery would fall on her.
In my heart, the supervision of Lay at home will only be stricter in the future.
This idea suddenly dawned on her one day. She took it too much for granted. Although Meteor Street was a lawless place, there was definitely no shortage of intelligence networks there to defeat enemies and enemies. Her grandmother, whom she had never met a few times, also often lived in Meteor Street.
Yes, maybe he has made a secret ultimatum with Xiba and secretly paid attention to her.
It’s not to blame that Rai is so suspicious and ill, it’s just to defeat the Hakka enemies. Nowadays, the success of the Hakka family depends not only on pure force, but also on developed minds that are beyond the reach of ordinary people. It seems that the characters in "Hunter Hunter" are all
Too clever...
Such easy-to-find flaws will only lead to more and more flaws if Rai tries to cover up the lie. At that time, the enemy will find that he has all kinds of strange abilities and restrictions in the system mall, as well as channels that can connect with other worlds, etc.
wait.
Once the Hakkas know these things, Lai really doesn't need to kill anyone anymore, because they have already made it clear that Rai's non-killing will bring far greater benefits to the Hakkas than having Lai as a killer.
In this way, Lai may be relaxed. She can stay under the wings of the enemy Hakka for a lifetime. They are spoiled by them in the name of 'family', but in the future, the fate of countless people will be implicated because of Lai.
If you master Rai, you will master the golden finger in her hand. After beating the enemy, you may focus on those unknown areas of other worlds, and what Rai will do is not comprehensive. Anyway, you are not familiar with the other worlds.
It's definitely not a good thing for the residents... This is tantamount to Rai sending 'disaster' to another world.
Rai thought of Purgatory Anjuro and the Butterfly Ninja Demon Slayer Team who had been able to live a happy life. She thought of the patients who struggled in despair for a long time and were later saved by her medical skills and were able to regain their lives.
She met Fusangshin and Ubuyashiki Yōya, who were loved by Honmaru as a family member...
If the madness of the Hunter World itself is viewed from a spectator perspective, the extreme tension in it is what fascinates countless readers. Here, death is a common occurrence, and ordinary people here may be accustomed to it. But other worlds are not like that.
The ordinary and beautiful life that Purgatory Xingjuro and the others strive for is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the strong men in the hunter world. Any servant who beats the enemy Hakka and goes to their side will bring devastation to that world.
blow.
Because of the constraints, only the system controlled by Rai can minimize the harm to human beings. But if it is obtained by others, especially... Even if you have been together, you know that the other party has indeed given you a lot of preference for your family, Rai.
Yi also had to admit that the purebred beaters were all extremely cold-blooded creatures when faced with people other than their family members.
No longer able to maintain the appearance of peace on the surface, until she grows up to the point where she can hold her head high in front of the enemy Hakka without fearing their majesty, the relationship between Lai and her family can only be pushed to an extreme level by her, that is,
——
Do not interfere with each other.
【Ley...】
Ruby, who knew what the other party was going to do next, felt very depressed, "If I hadn't been in a hurry to let you go to another world at that time, you wouldn't have reached this stage today."
Yes, it's all your fault.
[嘤qaq] Ruby cried, [I was wrong, I’m sorry.]
Kidding.
Ley smiled in relief and said, I have to thank you, Ruby.
Compared to the cold, dark, crazy and indifferent world, she really yearns for a warm and light place more.
This year, I have been very happy and satisfied.
Thinking of the happy and joyful expressions on the faces of those people who were half-pushed and half-heartedly helped by the system, Rai felt like he had returned to the longing for a beautiful world that he had as a child in his previous life, and suddenly he seemed to have found something that had long been with him.
Lost things.
Rai smiled as she thought about it. She said goodbye to Touken Fusangshen who came to see her off, and took Enichi Jiguo with her, and returned to Meteor Street through the time and space transformation through the system. The smell of garbage immediately penetrated her nose.
Here, people's good mood was immediately blown away.
Ley took out the delicate little flute that had been hanging around his neck and hidden in his clothes, and played the flute.
…
Siba, who was on a mission outside, heard the special sound of a flute in his pocket. After a pause, he took out an emerald he had always carried with him. There were little rays of light shining in the emerald.
This gem is a complete set with the flute he gave to Rai, and inside it is the telepathy ability of a domestic servant. When Rai uses "Fa" to blow the flute, the gem will emit a burst of flute sound to remind the person who is wearing it.
.The originally dull gem will glow with light, just a faint light at first. When the distance between the gem and the flute gets closer and closer, the light will become more dazzling. When the distance between the two is less than a hundred meters, the gem will
It will automatically fly to the direction of the flute, which is very suitable for searching.
Xiba looked at the gem in his hand that was glowing with starlight, and frowned.
——
After receiving the urgent order from Xiba, Zipanian immediately gathered a group of men and took the fastest airship to rush to Xiba's destination against the clock.
After boarding the airship, Xiba said that the destination was Meteor Street, then stood in the cab without saying a word with arms folded, staring directly at the sea of clouds outside the window.
The driver who is in the same space as him is under great pressure.
Meteor Street is so far away, and he is already moving at maximum speed, but it will still take several days, sir. Why don't you go and rest first?
——He really wanted to say this, but he didn't dare.
Zipo Nian, who was also staying here and waiting quietly, could more or less see the complicated emotions behind Sheba's calm face.
Although Miss Ley looks soft and cute, she is actually as strong as a boulder, or else she would be stubborn and unwilling to obey her family's arrangements and be thrown into Meteor Street for training.
Lai, who could deal with the threat of death indifferently, convinced Zipunian in her heart that Ms. Lai could definitely complete the trial of living alone in Meteor Street for three years.
However, after two years of calm, a signal representing surrender suddenly came, which made it difficult not to think about it.
If you just can't stand the life in Meteor Street, then the signal sent by Dizi is a bit late. You have been enduring it for two years, and you still have one year to grit your teeth and get over it, so that you won't fail here.
Or he was assimilated into Meteor Street, so he gave up his principles and chose to compromise with his family.
——This is the most likely statement, but Zi Po Nian’s intuition is not like this.
After living in the killer family for six years, the light in the eldest daughter's eyes is fundamentally different from that of others. Everyone around her is crawling into the dark abyss, but the eldest daughter is the only one who grabs the upward vines and refuses to let go.
Zipunian didn't think Lai would give in like this.
So...did I encounter a very complicated situation or danger? I hurriedly asked my family for help.
After ruling out all the conceivable possibilities, Zi Po Nian could only think of this reason that could barely convince her.
I guess the master thinks so too.
Zi Po Nian glanced at Xiba, who had a gloomy expression. Thinking that his daughter was in danger, he immediately dropped orders worth more than 10 billion. In fact, the master must also miss Miss Ley very much.
I hope the eldest lady will be safe and sound.
Zi Po Nian prayed like this in his heart.
——
The airship stopped at an area where the gems shone brightest, and a group of people in black suits landed on the ground. The residents of Meteor Street who were still picking up garbage saw the alarm in their hearts sounding, and they immediately left this place, which is very likely to happen later.
A place of right and wrong that cost them their lives.
In less than a minute, the loyal servant who beat the enemy Hakka cleared the place for his master.
Siba walked out, stepped on the land of Meteor Street, released the emerald, and walked in the direction in which it floated.
This area is a relatively safe area in Meteor Street. If Rai is here, he should not encounter any accidents.
From this point of view, her daughter's current situation should not be serious. Xiba felt that she should be able to breathe a sigh of relief, but for some reason, her right eyelid kept twitching——
There is always a feeling that something out of his control has happened quietly...
The gem stopped in mid-air, and the dazzling light flashed. I could feel that the origin of the flute was very close, but there might be something that prevented the gem from reuniting with it, leaving the gem in place in mid-air.
Turn and dry in a hurry.
"under."
Xiba immediately judged it. He looked towards the ground where his feet were stepping. He squatted down and dug with his hands that changed his limbs. A shiny and exquisite little flute appeared in Xiba wrapped in the dirty black soil.
On the palm of his hand, among other things, there was a thousand origami cranes folded out of paper.
The ominous premonition grew stronger in Zi Po Nian's heart.
Xiba threw away the black soil, and the flute was thrown to the ground casually with the same treatment as the black soil. The gem and the flute reunited. When their light merged together, they were like burning stars. The light dissipated, leaving only
The next two were dim corpses. When these two things were reunited, their telekinesis abilities disappeared and they were useless.
Siba expressionlessly opened the paper crane along the folds, and the writing hidden inside appeared in Siba's eyes——
To my dear father:
When you see this piece of paper, I am no longer in Meteor Street. I am sorry, I will never be a killer. Please forgive me for leaving without saying goodbye. From now on, I will be the freest bird! I left, I don’t know what
It will come back in time, don't think about it.
——Love you Ley.

boom--!!!
An extremely strong sense of oppression spread from Xiba's body to the surroundings. The invisible pressure made most of his subordinates unable to stand and kneeling on the ground. A dangerous red light flashed in Xiba's eyes.
, he laughed, it was scary.
Like a wild beast that had been stepped on to the bottom line, it showed its ferocious fangs, ready to tear out the unscrupulous guy who dared to challenge his majesty.
Oh my god, I really made him angry...
Rai, who was observing the situation here with a transparent spirit body not far away, subconsciously held his breath even though he knew that the other party could not sense his presence. He was so frightened by Siba who had never seen him like this that he dared not move.
"I was actually tricked by you."
Xiba hasn't felt this angry for a long time. Sure enough, she was so doting on her before, and now she dares to make trouble with Tai Sui, "Lei, you are so good!"
Most of the men were so frightened that they were soaked in cold sweat, and they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, what did the eldest lady do to anger the master?
"Miss, she..."
At this time, facing the ferocious and furious lion, only the old servant who had served the Hakka family for decades who had beaten enemies dared to speak. But when he opened his mouth, he hesitated not knowing what to ask.
"Humph, I don't know who I learned it from."
Xiba threw the crumpled note to Zi Po Nian, "How dare you run away from home."
Zi Po Nian looked at the blurred handwriting on the font. Even though she had experienced strong winds and waves, she could not help but marvel at the courage of the eldest lady.
...You are so fierce, Miss Ley. Master, he came over happily to take you home, and you sent him such a big gift while you were away. Now, you still pray that it won’t be so early.
He should be found by the master, at least until the master's anger subsides.
"Then...how should we deal with this, sir?"
Thinking that Xiba didn't want to see the disgusting words on the paper for the time being, Zi Po Nian kept the paper in a safe place. Then, he asked about the next steps to deal with the disobedient kitten.
"...go find mother."
Xiba was silent for a while, and then ordered a few of his subordinates, "Go and find her, and her intelligence network here must be allowed to work. All children with black hair and black eyes must not be let go... By the way, investigate, Lai
Yi’s movements in Meteor Street in the past two years.”
Rai: As expected...
No surprise decision.
After the explanation, Xiba turned around and walked towards the direction of the airship. Seeing this, Zi Po Nian asked boldly: "Are we about to leave now? Sir."
"Ah, go back to Kukulu Mountain."
After what happened, Xiba was no longer in the mood to do the task. "I don't know how she escaped from Meteor Street, but since she said she had left, the outside world can't let her go."
You have to dig three feet into the ground to find me, is that what you mean?
Rai felt that Siba would never have thought that the most dangerous place was the safest place. Now the guy he wanted to find the most was hanging around him, but unfortunately, he couldn't see it.
Xiba stopped and suddenly glanced in the direction of Rai, causing Rai's heartbeat to suddenly stop.
"Is there anything over there? Master."
"……No."
Xiba looked away. Just now, he had a feeling that Rai was nearby, "Maybe it's an illusion."
"Then, let's set off back to Kuru Mountain now, sir."
"Um."
Siba, who no longer went to the cab to act like a stone statue, sat on his special sofa in the cabin and closed his eyes and fell asleep. His thoughts uncontrollably recalled his own state of mind when he last saw Rai.
At that time, except for necessary exchanges, he said nothing else.
At that time, when her daughter said goodbye to her, her last glance cast down from the sky was fixed on him. Was she disappointed in him as a father at that time...
A trace of emotion that he couldn't explain flashed through Siba's mind as he returned to his senses——
Chapter completed!
