Chapter 258: The City I Love, the People I Love (7)
Crow walked into the reception room with a puzzled look on his face.
The boss entertained the Gattuso family's envoy. Why did he drag him along? Shouldn't he be looking for Ying? Sakura is the boss's personal secretary.
When he walked into the reception room, he found a round-faced man already sitting inside.
"Are you Fujiwara Shinnosuke?" Crow raised his eyebrows and looked in front of him
"I graduated from Kassel College in 2004. I have been working in the Paris branch before. This time I am here to ask for help on behalf of the Gattuso family." The round-faced man stood up and bowed deeply, keeping his posture very low.
The crow murmured in his heart, why did the boss want to specifically name this guy, and let Caesar send this guy to Japan even if they go deep into the bottom of the sea together?
Could it be that this guy is the boss’s personal…cough cough cough, wrong, wrong, too much age difference.
"May I ask who you are?" Fujiwara Shinnosuke asked tentatively.
"I'm your family's guard, just call me Crow." Crow said calmly, with straight back and solemn brows, thinking that he was lucky to have changed into a new suit before coming here, so he couldn't embarrass the boss.
"It turns out to be Mr. Crow." Fujiwara Shinnosuke looked stunned, as if he had heard about it a long time ago.
"Have you heard of me?" Crow said blankly.
"I've heard of it. How come the people around you haven't heard of it?" Fujiwara Shinnosuke's smile was a little awkward. He thought to himself that Konoe, the leader of the family, has such an IQ that he can't even hear polite words?
The room fell into silence for a while.
Until Yuan Zhisheng strode in.
He glanced coldly and locked onto the strange round-faced man in the room, "Are you Shinnosuke Fujiwara?"
"Yes... yes, you know me?" The round-faced man seemed frightened and surprised.
Yuan Zhisheng stared at his face silently, the disgusting round face in his memory completely matched the one in front of him.
Thanks to some temporarily unexplainable reason, he saw the future, but it was not his own future, but the future of the dead people around him.
Sakura, Crow, Yasha... In the end, no one survived.
Yuan Zhisheng slowly drew his sword and said softly: "Then, kneel down."
Fujiwara Shinnosuke looked stunned, what does this mean, asking him to surrender to the Sheqi Eight Family?
Suddenly his hair stood on end, and the cold light reflected from the unsheathed sword shone on his face.
"Master, what does this mean?" Fujiwara Shinnosuke stood up in horror and said quickly, "I am here on behalf of the Gattuso family. We have no other intention. We just want to find the missing young master Caesar! As long as you are willing to help us , you will gain the friendship of the Gattuso family, and we can even support your independence from the secret party..."
Naturally, the promise he made came out of his mouth. This visit to the Sheqi Ba family was originally his own initiative. Caesar is too important to the Gattuso family. As long as he can help the family bring back Caesar, he will be taken seriously. , whose status can even surpass that of the man named Patsy.
But what he didn't expect was that the patriarch would ask him to kneel down when they met!
Yuan Zhisheng looked indifferent, showing no trace of wavering.
When the sword came out of its sheath, it was like a thousand birds flapping its wings, and the sky and the earth were solemn, as if a golden sun enveloped this man.
"My name is Yuan Zhisheng, the head of the eight Sheqi families."
Fujiwara Shinnosuke's eyes were horrifying and ferocious. This guy was serious. He really wanted to hack him to death!
Even if his speaking spirit is exposed, he must escape from here!
Yan Ling Time Zero!
In the stretched timeline, Fujiwara Shinnosuke suddenly felt a kind of anger in his heart.
He wants to teach Yuan Zhisheng a lesson!
This is his field. Although he cannot extend time to the point of almost suspending like Principal Angers, he is not an ordinary mixed race either...
The shining sun interrupted his thoughts.
Standing in the glorious sun, Yuan Zhisheng looks like a King Kong coming to the world. His expression is somewhere between majestic and solemn. The arc cut out by the ancient knife is the edge of the sun!
Why...his movements are faster than his own when Time Zero is turned on?
Fujiwara Shinnosuke stared blankly at the dazzling sword light.
These were his last thoughts.
One knife, the owl's head.
"Holy shit, boss, why did you chop down the man sent by the headquarters with one knife?" Crow stood there dumbfounded. He was not worried that his family would anger the Gattuso family and the secret party, but he was just confused.
If he had to say it, he felt that the boss who wielded the sword just now was so handsome, as if he was standing in the sun, which perfectly confirmed the destiny of Amaterasu!
He was suddenly stunned and blurted out: "Boss, you just used the spirit of speech instead of reciting the dragon inscriptions?"
Crow looked at Yuan Zhisheng, who showed no signs of fatigue, and was filled with surprise and uncertainty.
He understands the power of [Royal Power] very well, but this speech spirit also has great disadvantages. According to the boss himself, it is because his bloodline is far inferior to that of the previous emperors, so he cannot control this speech spirit freely, but now...
"Zuo Bolongzhi..." Yuan Zhisheng sheathed his sword and said with a smile, "That name is quite majestic, but I am still used to calling you Crow."
The crow scratched his head and said shyly: "Boss, stop teasing me, a crow will always be a crow in front of you."
He got used to it within the family, and everyone called him Crow. No one called him his real name except his father from his hometown. He had almost forgotten it. Unexpectedly, the boss suddenly used his original name to tease him today.
Minamoto stood with his back to the floor-to-ceiling window, behind him was the slowly flowing Shibuya under the morning sun, with corpses lying beside his feet, and blood gurgling on the tatami.
He was still smiling, but there was an unspeakable sadness in his smile.
Yes, the crow will always be that crow in front of him.
But once he leaves this world, there will be no more crows in this world, only Zuo Bolongzhi who has inherited the righteousness.
He once wanted to leave Japan and go to a place where no one knew him. He made careful plans for this and arranged an escape route for everyone around him. In his heart, Crow and Yasha were actually just low-level thugs who could not afford it.
It is the responsibility of the family, so he had already planned to leave some property to Ying to take care of, and pay dividends to these two guys every month, so that at least they would not starve to death...
But in the future he saw, the man named Zuo Bolongji took the position of minister of the Japanese Executive Bureau.
The roof of the office is decorated with a red-gold gentian flower family emblem, which is the family emblem of the Minamoto family. The last retainer of the Minamoto family sits under the family emblem and leads the Japanese Executive Bureau. He uses suits and leather shoes to cover up the scornful demeanor of the past, and his voice is deep.
And majestic, no one dared to interrupt when he spoke.
The man named Zuo Bolongzhi became as majestic as his original name.
In Yuan Zhisheng's eyes, a man who could not take on the important role forced himself to hold the real power of the eight Sheqi families.
He raised the sword and gently struck Crow on the shoulder with the scabbard.
"Crow, if you were given a chance, would you be willing to leave this city and live the rest of your life in a city where you can live in seclusion?"
"Huh?" Crow stared and said anxiously, "Boss, you are not going to drive me away, are you? Come on, I haven't made any mistakes recently. Last time, I made the police chief's mistress into a female body and put it in the police chief's office.
It's my fault, but the crime should not lead to death. How long has it been since..."
"What's the rush? I just want to know what you think." Yuan Zhi said calmly.
"Of course not." Crow Crow spread his hands and said, "Where can I go after leaving Tokyo? I can only go back to my hometown, right? I don't want to face my dad's stinky face all day long. Besides, boss, you are all here, I
What does it mean if you leave alone, a deserter? Even if we all die together, we will die together!"
"What a bastard." Yuan Zhisheng scolded him, "Even if he really has to die, someone must survive and lead the family after the disaster."
"Then this person shouldn't be me." Crow said extremely firmly, "If we really have to die, it should be me and Yasha. Boss, you and Sakura are more important to the family."
"It's not up to us to choose." Yuan Zhisheng said softly, "Crow, if Sakura, Yasha, I, and I all die, then you will be the only one left. You must learn to be the leader of the family."
Crow cried sadly and said: "Boss, I didn't know you thought so highly of me before. But if you all die, I will have no acquaintances in this city. Can I guard your tomb?"
Yuan Zhisheng's heart moved, as if he was blessed.
He suddenly understood why the man who made himself strong and majestic was so free and easy when he died, because for him death might be a kind of relief.
The people he loved once lived in this city, and in the end, the people he loved were buried.
He guarded the tombs of the other three people, sat under the Gentian family crest of the Gen family, and modeled the boss's tone of voice and behavior. He upheld the boss's righteousness and moved forward. Even if he died, it didn't matter, even if the family wanted to live again
It doesn't matter if he faces the secret party... He doesn't care about this. He only cares about whether he abides by the righteousness left by his boss.
"Boss, now that this is over, do you still want to go to France to sell sunscreen?" Crow asked tentatively. He always felt that the boss was acting weird recently.
"I won't go. It's boring to go alone. If you are alone, the beach full of naked girls will look empty, right?" Yuan Zhisheng said softly, "Crow, do you love the city of Tokyo?"
Crow was a little dumbfounded. Why did the boss ask such incomprehensible questions today?
He hesitated and said: "Oh, I love you. Tokyo is very prosperous. There are so many beautiful girls and the nightlife is colorful. In my small place in my hometown, no one goes out on the streets at seven o'clock in the evening..."
Yuan Zhisheng smiled softly and said, "But I don't love this city."
Crow shrugged and said: "I know, I know. Otherwise, boss, why would you be so excited and want to run to France? You don't have to take me and Yasha with you. We will only act as bodyguards for you when we go to France. You can take Ying with you...
"
"But there is someone I love here." Yuan Zhisheng walked out of the reception room, leaving only words that stunned the crow.
Ke Yuanzhisheng won't explain too much.
He raised the knife with a calm look on his face.
The moment he walked out of the door, he looked sideways and saw a white bird flying across the branches outside the window, fluttering its wings and flying into the clouds. At that moment, the sky was high and the clouds were broad.
He finally thought it through and thought it through.
Everyone in this world has so many identities, some of which always conflict with each other, and we will eventually make changes and choices for those we love and those who love us.
People are not born unchanged, and so should righteousness.
To this day, he still has not fallen in love with this city called Tokyo.
But he must win this battle, protect the land beneath his feet, and try to survive for the sake of those he loves.
And this is the righteousness of his new life.
…
…
"Principal, there is a man named Uesugoshi outside asking to see you."
Just when Angers and the vice-principal were worried about where to start, a researcher from the Equipment Department came in to report.
Angers was taken aback, and then couldn't help showing a look of surprise: "Great! I actually forgot that there is such a monster in Tokyo! Please invite him in."
"Above Heaven"
A moment later, Uesugi appeared in front of Ange, soaked all over.
Angers was a little disappointed with the state of his appearance. He smelled of alcohol and had a ramen chef's turban on his head. He really didn't have the demeanor that a "monster" should have, and instead looked like a wet old dog.
But as their eyes met, Ange's heart suddenly shook.
He saw peace in those eyes, a calmness that only desperadoes can have if they regard death as home.
"You...already know everything?" Ange whispered.
"What do you know?" Uesugi asked suspiciously as he sat down on the leather sofa unceremoniously.
"Those things you and Yuan Zhisheng had to talk about..." Ange said tactfully.
Uesugoshi was furious and said: "You bastard! It turns out that you already knew this but you kept hiding it from me. What on earth do you want?!"
"Dan Ding, I've made you Dan Ding!" Ange quickly raised his hand to calm down: "We only just found out about it, and this matter has not been certified yet."
"Certification?"
"Just do a paternity test and solve scientific matters by scientific matters."
"...No need to identify it, I've already confirmed it."
"ha?"
"I just came back from Inuyama's house, and I happened to meet him when I was going out." Uesugoshi said calmly, "This boy looks exactly like me when I was young, and he has a similar personality. He is handsome and stubborn."
Ange's face twitched, he suppressed his complaints, and cursed in his heart: I didn't see you saying that during the last meeting. How could I remember that someone looked down on Yuan Zhisheng at that time?
Now that he is your son, he is handsome and stubborn?
The vice-principal rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "Who said last time, 'The only thing I'm curious about now is who your cheap daddy is?'"
Uesugi turned a deaf ear: "Ange, I came to you to solve this disaster."
"Welcome, my old friend!" Angers smiled, and then said curiously, "But can I ask you what your thoughts were after learning that you had a son? I want to be very curious about how you suddenly figured it out.
.”
"Ange, I have long since stopped caring about what this world has become, because there is no one in this world that I care about anymore. For me, this huge world is only empty and lonely, but I suddenly learned that I was actually in this world.
There are two sons and one daughter in this world..."
Uesugoshi slowly raised his head. His eyes, which had been flat for so long, seemed to have lost their sharpness, leaving only the weathered eyes burning brightly, lighting up a dazzling golden color.
He is simply sitting here, but he seems to be sitting on a throne. He has returned to the era when the emperor's blood was the only one. Raising his hand is enough to command the world.
"Do you know that feeling? You once thought that nothing in the world could tie you down, but suddenly there are three ropes around your neck. I once abandoned the world, and then thought that the world also abandoned me, but
But my blood is still flowing in this world. I have two sons, or two, and I even have a baby daughter. Suddenly I am no longer a lonely ghost! Back then, my chess sage father was willing to do it for my mother and me.
If I return to Japan and become a stallion, I am willing to die for them in this city I don’t love."
Angers' face was expressionless, and he didn't know what expression to use in response.
The vice-principal slowly stood up, walked to the wine cabinet, poured two glasses of the best whiskey in the wine cabinet, came to Uesugoshi, handed over a wine glass, and said slowly:
"I understand, I understand this feeling so well. When I learned that I had a son, I suddenly became cautious. I have never cared about anyone else as much as I cared about him, I mean anyone! "
"I care about his happiness and anger, and worry about his health. For him, I can even humble myself and write to the school board saying, "My son is really great, why don't you give him a promotion and a raise?" What? I tried my best to please him, just to see him smile."
"I think no matter how powerful a father is, in order to make his son happy, he can lie down on the ground and act as a horse for his son to ride on, making the sound of horse hooves from his mouth while crawling..."
The vice-principal paused and said softly: "Because they are the only people we can love in this world."
"Congratulations, old guy, you have found a reason to continue living. This world is so big and so lonely, it is really difficult to live without any reason."
The walls of the cups collide.
"Honor your father!"
The vice-principal smiled, raised his glass, and drank it all in one gulp.
