Chapter 54 Guidance
Chapter 54 Guidance
"I know what you mean," Genji said wearily, "but Tachibana Masamune has a high reputation within the family."
Although Genjiro had previously been involved in family affairs and served as the head of the executive bureau, the true leader of the family and the person most trusted by the family members was Tachibana Masamune.
After all, he was the greatest contributor to bringing the family back on track and allowing it to develop steadily to this day during the time when the demons were rampaging and the family was facing its most difficult period.
Even if Tachibana Masamune and the King are very likely in cahoots now, who would believe it?
Yuan Zhisheng only had three trusted subordinates, and even with the addition of other members of the Executive Bureau, they were not outnumbered.
He only felt a headache: "Genji Heavy Industries was burned down twice, and the fire department was fined a huge sum; Kaguya's mainframe was damaged and is still under repair; in addition, the most important thing now is to find the 'god' who escaped from Takamagahara."
"We didn't burn down Genji Heavy Industries," Caesar declared righteously, shifting the blame.
Chu Zihang remained expressionless, showing no reaction whatsoever to the destruction of Princess Kaguya.
Huo Yuhao coughed lightly, his tone frank: "The highest authority over Kaguya-hime is Tachibana Masamune, and we are doing this to prevent him from secretly tampering with things. As for the clues you mentioned about the White King's remains, you are the local. Once you find them, just let us know, and we will naturally do our best to help."
Caesar nodded: "We're not the kind of people who would stab our comrades in the back."
"Kassel College will not stand idly by when support is needed," Chu Zihang added in a deep voice.
Yuan Zhisheng's expression changed, alternating between blue and red.
Previously, his family's betrayal of the trio in the Japanese trenches has now become an invisible bargaining chip in their hands, inevitably putting him in a passive position.
But Genjiro is the kind of person who will stop at nothing if he believes he is doing the right thing.
The family and the Kassel Commissioner had different stances, and Genji felt a little embarrassed for having wronged them, but he didn't feel much psychological pressure.
But Huo Yuhao's series of probing questions last night were like a cold wind blowing through the fog, finally bringing a touch of clarity to his long-clouded mind.
"The conflict between you and Genjiro is too great, so we'll handle the communication with him." Huo Yuhao glanced at the watches of other tourists and said to Genjiro, "I'm going to pick up Erii for dinner."
Caesar and Chu Zihang also stood up. Caesar said, "You should deal with the internal problems of the Snake Clan first, Elephant Tortoise."
Upon hearing the names Genjiro and Erii, Genjiro's expression grew increasingly grim.
In fact, Huo Yuhao somewhat understood Yuan Zhisheng. It's all about justice and honor, isn't it? People who have been brainwashed for so long are like this.
Shrek Academy did indeed provide Huo Yuhao with some assistance. He learned a great deal of knowledge there, and as for resources, Shrek Academy initially provided quite a bit, especially regarding soul tools.
Regarding spirit rings and spirit bones, Elder Xuan also took Huo Yuhao to hunt for spirit rings. The external spirit bone on his left hand was obtained with Elder Xuan's help.
Moreover, if it weren't for Elder Xuan, he and Wang Qiu'er wouldn't have had this tragic relationship.
...Although Huo Yuhao still doesn't know Wang Qiu'er's true identity.
After assembling his phone, Huo Yuhao said to Yuan Zhisheng before leaving the private room, "You should know what Erii likes to eat, right?"
Yuan Zhisheng nodded helplessly.
Caesar thought for a moment, and before leaving, he turned back to Genjiro and said, "Tortoise, you can live whatever kind of life you want, but you can't put yourself in your shell first."
Yuan Zhisheng looked bewildered.
"Why did you think of counseling Yuan Zhisheng?" Chu Zihang asked.
Caesar shrugged: "We share a common goal in slaying dragons, I just don't want him to hold us back because of his fussiness."
Huo Yuhao nodded, thinking that Caesar's use of the word "affected" was quite appropriate.
"It feels like we didn't talk much today," Caesar said, preparing to order food first, since they hadn't eaten much. The food in the private room was mainly for Huo Yuhao and Erii. "Chu Zihang, it's rare for us to be at Disneyland together, how about we have a good time later?"
"Fingal will be joining us tonight, and maybe Zero too." Chu Zihang patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder and walked to Caesar's side.
Huo Yuhao smiled, walked out of the restaurant, and headed straight to the Little World to pick up Erii.
Erii's previously absent-minded expression immediately came to life after she noticed Huo Yuhao's appearance.
Sakura Yabuki seized the opportunity and took a great photo.
"Eri, let's go." Huo Yuhao took the camera from Yabuki Sakura and saw the vivid photo from earlier.
Erii immediately and naturally took Huo Yuhao's hand.
Huo Yuhao was taken aback.
In Japan, holding hands seems to be an intimate act that only occurs between couples.
Oh no, he should have kept his distance from Erii.
However, we can't just pull our hands back now; we still need to find a way to help Erii have normal life experience and emotional understanding.
"She's just my sister." Huo Yuhao thought to himself, when suddenly a melody echoed in his mind: "She's just my sister, my sister says purple is very charming~"
Huo Yuhao really wanted to cover his face.
The appearance of Lu Mingfei's memories at this point is somewhat superfluous.
Erii suddenly leaned her head close to Huo Yuhao's face. Seeing the curiosity on Erii's face, Huo Yuhao had no choice but to quickly suppress his emotions.
"It's nothing, I was just thinking about where to go after dinner," Huo Yuhao replied earnestly.
Erii blinked, pretending to believe her.
When Huo Yuhao met Erii's gaze, he did feel a little guilty.
Erii is just naive, not stupid; Lu Mingfei is much easier to fool than she is.
But she's the kind of person who trusts you, so she's willing to believe whatever you say.
In some ways, the three siblings, Genjiro, Genjiro, and Erii, are quite similar.
They're all incredibly stubborn.
When Erii and Huo Yuhao returned to the restaurant, all the dishes had been served, and Genjiro had already left.
Although Genjiro was heartbroken by Erii's resistant attitude, he didn't want to spoil her fun. It was only after seeing Lu Mingfei holding Erii's hand in the shadows that he gritted his teeth.
Sakura Yabuki and Yasha exchanged a glance, at a loss for what to do with this inexplicably siscon.
"Master, we should go back now," Yaksha reminded them, forcing himself to speak.
Yuan Zhisheng took a deep breath, knowing that important matters were at hand. He glared at Huo Yuhao's back before turning and leaving.
Disneyland was bustling and filled with laughter, but Genjiro and his two companions felt out of place there.
Their world has no paradise, only battlefields.
Huo Yuhao watched as Yuan Zhisheng and the other two left, handing Erii food while pondering why the little devil hadn't contacted him yet.
A whole morning has passed; verifying the mental meditation method shouldn't take this long, right?
