Tokyo: Parasite

Chapter 429 199: Restoration

"I really don't know what you are asking, big brother, grandfather, ancestor!"

The current head of the Sato family cried until his tears were streaming down his face and his voice was hoarse.

In the company's boss's office, the air-conditioning outlet made a subtle hum, blowing out warm air, and the Sato family head's tie swayed gently in the warm wind. He was hung upside down on the high ceiling of the office by rock-like tentacles, and a dark water stain spread across the crotch of his suit pants, and he had already tasted a few drops of it.

He was just slacking off at work in his own company when he was inexplicably arrested and hung from the ceiling, and then beaten with something that was like a stone whip.

Then an extraordinary person came in and started questioning.

"Do you remember the couple's bodies you handled fifteen years ago?"

Fifteen years ago, he was still studying for a master's degree in law abroad! How could it be his turn to deal with corpses?

Besides, the Sato family is not the kind of family that can cover the sky with one hand. How can they just deal with others as they please? Do they really think they are a gang?

Before his death, his father never told him that he had been so arrogant in the past!
".Who are you, Yasunari Sato?"

"Yes, it's my brother." The face of the head of the Sato family changed suddenly, he remembered.

The reason why he was able to become the clan leader as the second son was because his elder brother had caused trouble, left a deep wound, and wasted a lot of favors from the family, so this position was his turn.

And that disaster seemed to be an accidental killing of a family.
"No, it's none of my business! I wasn't involved in the whole thing! I just heard about this. One day, Yasunari Sato went out to play, and this beast killed someone. It also cost the family a lot of money to suppress it. When I heard about it, I was skiing in Toronto that day, and I took pictures! And that, that was clearly my brother's fault!"

The head of the Sato family struggled and shouted that it was unfair.

"Don't shout, no one outside can hear you." Xiong Ling sneered, "Since you are the current head of the Sato family, then you should be responsible for this matter. Sato Yasunari can't escape, and neither can you."

The head of the Sato family breathed heavily and slowly calmed down, with only despair in his eyes.

After a long while, he pleaded with difficulty: "I really don't know, but my father left me his notes and diary, which must contain relevant details. I'll give them to you. Let me go, okay?"

Xiong Ling slowly shook his head: "I can give you a decent death."

".Without involving the family?"

"It doesn't involve the family."

".Okay then."

The head of the Sato family compromised, and his whole body seemed to have been drained of all strength. Even when Xiong Ling loosened his restraints, he fell limply to the ground with trembling hands.

The bear spirit stood before him, quietly waiting for him to calm down.

Ten seconds later, he slowly took out his cell phone, took a few deep breaths, and made a call.

"Wanzi, help me get the two thick old notebooks from the first drawer on the left side of the desk in the study, hand them over to the front desk, and then go home. It's nothing, just follow my instructions."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Then he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, took a deep puff and took half a drag, only then did he stop his trembling hands.

"Although I don't know where the body is, I can more or less guess that my father must have asked the local gangsters to help deal with it. However, the gangs here have already changed several times. I just hope he wrote down the specific process, otherwise you won't be able to find the person who did it."

Xiong Ling did not reply, but just glanced at the family photo on the other person's desk.

While he had some time, Sato quickly took out a piece of paper and began to write his suicide note. He wrote very quickly, obviously worried that he would not have enough time.

After a while, Sato's cell phone rang. He picked it up and hummed twice.

"The notebook has been delivered to the front desk. You can bring it up or take it away. Can I finish writing?"

"You go get it."

"I?"

"Ah."

Xiong Ling didn't say it a second time.

Sato swallowed and walked slowly to the door half-believingly. The surrounding rock walls retreated as he approached, slowly revealing the door.

Sato looked back and found that Xiong Ling seemed to pay no attention to him and was not worried at all.

With a click, he gritted his teeth, opened the door, walked out, and closed the door behind him.

Xiong Ling picked up the family photo, looked at the child in it who was about the same age as herself, stared at it silently for a while, and then put it back in its place.

Hey.

Sato opened the door and walked in with a bag, his legs trembling.

In the end, he didn't have the courage to escape.

The extraordinary person in front of him was so confident that either he was really not afraid that he would run away, or he wanted him to run away so that he could double the score.

No matter which one it is, it will not end up better, but will only drag down the family.

He poured out the notebook and began to flip through it according to time. For a moment, the only sound in the room was the sound of flipping papers. Sweat continued to seep out of Sato's forehead. He wiped it again and again, but it just wouldn't stop.

"Found it!" Sato pointed his index finger at a certain line and began to read. "I have to do some good deeds for my family, even though it seems hypocritical. The people from the Horsehead Gang told me that they only found two bodies, and I don't know if the other one was taken away by a wild beast or if he is still alive and ran away. I think he is not dead, because a wild beast would not take away only one of them. But even if he is not dead, it is not easy for a child to survive in the forest."

"I asked them to look for him. If they find him, send him out of the country. At least my conscience will be better."

"As for the couple, I buried them in the Tokachi Cemetery, but I didn't dare write their names. I only dared to deceive myself and engrave "Innocent".

Sato looked up blankly: "That's all."

Xiong Ling reached out and took the notebook, reading it carefully word by word.

After a long while, he put down the notebook.

Sato was still writing his suicide note and had already written two pages, but he still had a lot to say. He was afraid that other family members would harm the orphans and their widows, so he tried his best to leave them a way out and some means of restraint.

"Hehe. I've finished writing. I hope you can keep your promise." Sato put down his pen and stared at Xiong Ling with a fearless look.

Xiong Ling didn't reply, but just picked up the diary.

"You haven't seen me today."

After saying that, he jumped out of the window, ignoring Sato, whom he had just sentenced to death.

The gray rock surrounding the office slowly receded, as if it had never been there, except for the wall paint and dust all over the floor.

Sato sat exhausted in the boss chair, covering his still beating heart and started crying.

After calming down for a while, he called the Finance Department.

"This month, all wages will be doubled."

"Ah, boss, what's the reason?"

"No reason."

"Uh, I understand!"

After a while, a lot of restless noises were heard outside the office, beating in rhythm with his heart.

He slowly smiled. His brother almost killed him, but his father's last bit of kindness saved him. "Brother, you really deserve to die." He murmured.

The phone suddenly rang.

Sato picked up the phone lazily.

"Hello, is this the Sato family? Oh, my brother is dead." He was not surprised at all, and even wanted to say "It's a good thing he died", but he quickly realized that he couldn't give such a reaction, "What did you say?! My brother is dead?!"

"No, no one is looking for me."

"Okay, ask whatever you want to know, and I will tell you everything I know."

cemetery.

Xiong Ling easily found the Tomb of the Innocents mentioned in the diary.

He could sense the two urns buried underneath through the ground, but since they were buried here and had rested in peace, there was no need to forcibly change their location.

He watched silently for a while without saying anything.

The person is gone, and there is a great distance between life and death. Words and thoughts cannot be conveyed.

He couldn't do anything for them, even revenge was mostly just to satisfy his own anger.

The tragic past always requires the instigator to pay the price.

Next, he needs to fulfill the last wish of his foster parents, which is to restore the Ainu people to their country.

This is an outrageous wish, so his caregivers only think about it in their dreams and have never actually said it out loud.

He knew very well how powerful the Japanese Special Affairs Bureau was. He would never be able to shake such an existence with his own extraordinary power.

But it's not impossible.
However, the premise of all this is that the only remaining Ainu gathering points can still exist and the culture can still find its roots.

The bear spirit left Tokachi and headed towards the last Ainu settlement.

Not long after he left, the Baron found this place with Jingquan.

"He came back, but left again." The Baron sighed.

They were actually tricked more than once by people who had no idea what was going on.

Jingquan was not discouraged at all. He just looked around and asked, "Is he here to pay respect to his family?"

"Probably. I didn't expect that it took so long to figure out this man's identity. We only know that he is an Ainu and has a grudge against the Sato family, but he doesn't seem to have killed anyone from the Sato family here. It's not easy for us to intervene. After all, our mission is to track him, so it's best not to alert the enemy."

"You said that the Ainu people who have no relatives have completed their revenge and recovered the bones of their ancestors. Where will they go next?" Jingquan suddenly asked.

The baron slapped his forehead and said, "I was negligent. So he should only have one place to go at the moment. After all, due to potential discrimination, other settlements have all changed their names and surnames. They are almost dead in name only and have long been assimilated."

"Let's go, walk faster, maybe we can catch up." Jingquan was still so decisive.

The Baron was a little troubled. He hadn't touched any fish since he came out with Jingquan.

It's over. He really can't get used to Jingquan's mobility, which is even more powerful than Augustus.

I hope he won’t get injured at work due to overwork.

Nothing happened for a day.

Takeshi Noguchi brought Saga to the volcano on the Shiretoko Peninsula.

"The volcanic activity has basically stopped now. Experts have come to investigate nearby, but I'm worried that the monster will appear again, so I only let them set up instruments at the sentry post. According to common sense, this volcanic activity came and went quickly, and now it has entered a stable stage. According to the experts, it is almost like a dead volcano."

"Of course, according to common sense, this kind of super-large-scale volcanic geological activity should not occur here at this time, and it comes with almost no signs. So I suspect the main reason is related to the lava monster."

Guan Junyan was next to Noguchi, expressing his own inference.

Noguchi looked at the devastation before him and wondered what the consequences would be if this happened in a busy city.

I'm afraid that no one can escape, and the entire city will turn into magma and be buried deep under the earth.

Therefore, the root cause of this disaster must be clearly identified.

This time it happened in an uninhabited area, next time it will happen in a busy city! We must strike hard!

"If Abdul were here, things would be much easier." Saga Shunye said sincerely as he looked at the magma below that had not yet solidified.

"You can't rely on others for everything." Noguchi entered the trial state, holding a judge's hammer in his hand, "Wait for me here."

Even though they were a little worried, they didn't say much and just nodded in agreement.

Noguchi aimed at a gap, with a circle of light protecting his body, and rushed in headfirst.

Passing through countless sticky magma, the cracks seemed to lead to the underworld, bottomless.

After more than a minute, there was no sign of the monsters, which made people wonder if they were hiding in the magma.

Until he felt an unusual heat.

The view in front of me suddenly became clear. A large number of lava streams slowly merged into a lava river, falling from great heights to form a magnificent golden-red waterfall. The lava gathered into a lake, and the monster was sitting on the surface of the lake.

The monster sensed Noguchi's approach and opened its tired eyes.

However, its ever-depleting strength could no longer support it in making any destructive moves, and it could only watch quietly as Noguchi flew in front of it, like a flying bird overlooking humans.

"No, you are not a match. Your master miscalculated. You cannot win."

Noguchi didn't understand what it said, so he just took note of it.

"Why did you want to cause such a large volcanic eruption?"

".I can do it and I am willing to do it."

"Who are you dealing with?"

"I have a lot of people to deal with, including you. Haha, no, you'd better leave it to that guy. He will definitely be eager to tear you apart, pull you into pieces of dust, and then slowly devour you." The monster laughed.

Oh no, I encountered the Riddler.

Still looks like an alien Riddler.

"She won't succeed. I've already issued a warning. Even if I'm gone, there's still..." Before he could finish his words, the lava monster slowly froze on the lake surface. Its breath became weaker and weaker. Finally, it slowly turned into a large piece of rusty red rock and slowly sank into the magma.

The cave began to tremble, and Noguchi didn't bother to analyze the meaning of the monster's words. He flew out quickly in the direction he came down.

The walls of the cave slowly closed, pressing towards Noguchi from all directions.

Finally, the cave wall was almost closed, and the sledgehammer in Noguchi's hand turned into a drill, which allowed him to break through the rock wall and rush out of the ground again.

He rushed here from Kyoto, but it was like he was attending the funeral of a monster, and he didn't say a word.

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Taking a deep breath, he said to the two people who had come over.
