The streets of Tokyo at night were still busy with traffic. A convoy of several luxury cars passed through the night, flanked by motorcycles spread out like wings. In the middle of the convoy was an extended version of a Bentley worth more than a million dollars, with spray paint on the body.
With the Uesugi family crest of bamboo and sparrow.
This is a necessary defense system, and it is also the basic pomp and circumstance for the three heads of the eight Sheqi families to travel. It is not a convoy deliberately pulled up by the old people who love the scenery of the other families to show off.
The convoy cut through the traffic flow like a sharp knife, and both ordinary cars and police vehicles had to give way. Pedestrians also stopped, took out their mobile phones and started taking pictures.
Pairs of sharp eyes were reflected on the car windows and in the helmets of the motorcyclists. They were always paying attention to the surrounding crowds, traffic or buildings to prevent any unexpected situation from threatening the safety of the Uesugi family.
Although few people in Japan dare to stroke the big tiger of the Jakiki Hachi family, there are undercurrents surging under the bustling and peaceful Tokyo today. Not to mention external forces, internal monsters are watching in the shadows.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguoyuedu to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. Yeguoyuedu is available for Android and Apple.]
Therefore, the Sheqi family attaches great importance to the trip of the Uesugi family leader. Not only does it provide basic protection, the Fuma family also sends an additional ninja team in the dark, and the Japanese branch execution department sends an additional senior specialist to follow the convoy.
In the Bentley car in the middle of the motorcade, Hui Liyi climbed on the seven-centimetre-thick bulletproof window and looked at the huge billboard of a luxury brand on the street:
The national superstars who often appear on TV have confident smiles on their faces, exquisite and sober makeup, and gorgeous postures, which highlight the fashion and trend of the brand's products.
Eriki rarely has the opportunity to leave Genji Heavy Industries. Everything in the outside world is new to her, and every street in the huge Tokyo is unfamiliar to her.
Pedestrians on the street, neon lights, running trams, and even rolling billboards all attract her attention.
There was silence in the car, and Yuan Zhisheng, who was sitting next to her, was also in a fuzzy state. In the past, Eriyi would have dragged her brother to ask questions, but today she was very quiet, and it seemed that she also felt Yuan Zhisheng's emotions...
…
The rain in Tokyo last night did not stop in the middle of the night as usual, and it continued to intensify, making people worried about the drainage system of the largest city in the world.
Yuan Zhisheng held the freshly brewed hot tea and propped up the window to watch the rain. Hot steam hit his face, and there was a continuous sound of metal tapping in his ears.
It's late at night, but the neon lights illuminate the city and the roads people are running on.
"Aren't you going to convince me?" Masamune Tachibana lifted the red-hot metal with pliers and observed the shape of the knife under the light. He frowned slightly, as if he was dissatisfied with his forging skills: "That's what the elderly are like. They can't stay up late, and they can't
You can’t forge a good knife.”
"Dad, you know..." Yuan Zhisheng said silently.
"If you let Eri refuse, you would just send me a text message to explain the situation and tell me to wait for you. Of course, you are ready to help Eri." Tachibana Masamune said with a smile.
"Dad, I don't know how to speak..." Yuan Zhisheng sighed and said, "Because your idea is correct, but... even though some things don't make sense, as an older brother I can't refuse Eriki's little wish.
, although this is too selfish, many things are like this, and it is useless to distinguish right from wrong."
"You seem to have been troubled recently, ever since the inspection team came to Tokyo. Have you been influenced by Jiang Yi? It's normal to get tired of seeing other people's free clothes and angry horses." Masamune Tachibana stopped what he was doing and said:
"Young boy, as the head of the executive department, you will also be in charge of the eight Sheqi families in the future. Naturally, you understand the truth that anything related to the family should not be acted upon by emotion."
"As you know, Eri's situation is too special. She has powerful power but is very unstable. Not only can her safety not be guaranteed by letting her stay outside, it is also irresponsible to the public." Masamune Tachibana cut the knife.
Put it into the fire: "With power, the responsibilities that fall on your shoulders are also heavier. And more than these, what worries me more is Jiang Yi. His purpose of inviting Hui Liyi may not be simple..."
"Isn't that true? He has a girlfriend in the headquarters, and Commissioner Xia Mi of the inspection team is not worse than Eri Yi in terms of appearance." Yuan Zhisheng frowned: "If he dares to pay attention to Eri Yi,
I guarantee he won’t be able to leave Tokyo!”
Tachibana Masamune smiled bitterly and said: "It would be best if Jiang Yi's invitation was because men like beautiful girls... You know the special nature of Eriyi's bloodline. Orthodoxy has a long history, and they have many secrets that we don't know.
, I am very worried about his true purpose, and we failed to protect Eriki, putting her in danger and making things worse."
Yuan Zhisheng looked at the tea in the cup and said: "Although Jiang Yi is very strong, no matter from the perspective of a friend or an enemy, he is a real man, proud and arrogant. A person like him will not treat Hui
What does Liyi do?"
Tachibana Masamune controlled the blade to roll in the fire, and the two were silent for a long time.
Tachibana Masamune squatted down and pulled the bellows, air was sucked into the stove, enough oxygen made the fire bigger, and the temperature inside the stove also rose rapidly.
It is hard to imagine that the masters of the eight Sheqi families still use such an ancient air blowing method when forging knives. Although the traditional bellows is easy to use, its shortcomings are also obvious. It is labor-intensive and inefficient.
Yuan Zhisheng still remembers that in the past he would take the initiative to light the fire for his father and make a whirring sound when pulling the bellows. He felt like a father and son forging iron. But then his father would stop him. He said that blacksmithing is his own practice.
Your practice does not require help from others.
From then on, Yuan Zhisheng would only watch his father stoking fire and forging iron quietly, recalling the trivial events of recent days amidst the sound of the forging blade.
"Have you made up your mind?" Masamune Tachibana suddenly said, sighing like an old father compromising his grown-up son.
Yuan Zhisheng nodded and said: "Dad, you know, Jiang Yi's girlfriend in the headquarters looks very similar to Eri Yi, but her life makes me envious, she is free and does whatever she wants, let alone
Talking about Hui Liyi... If she wants to go to France to sell sunscreen oil, Jiang Yi will definitely buy the world's largest sunscreen oil manufacturer to accompany her..."
"We all love Eri..." Masamune Tachibana's expression was moving: "There is just no way. I just hope that I can solve the monsters and stabilize Eri's bloodline before I am alive, so that she can enjoy normal life."
Human life…”
"For once, dad, let me be willful this time." Yuan Zhisheng finally said: "Even if I never have the opportunity to sell sunscreen in this life, I still hope that Eri can have a normal girl's night..."
Minamoto's naive memories were suddenly interrupted. Eriki held his hand, with a bright smile on her face, and she pointed to the signboard in the distance.
