Chapter 160 Eri has entered (
Genji Heavy Industries, Xia Mo and Genji Chisei came to the Cauchy layer.

The two of them strolled in the deep, dark corridor. There was no one in the corridor except them, and a faint smell of formaldehyde wafted in the distance.

The Cauchy layer feels like a hospital, a hospital like Sleeping Beauty's Castle, where time does not flow and everything is sealed by some evil force.

There was a pale light coming in from the window. It was clearly daytime, but it gave people a feeling of being in The Ring. It showed how dark and eerie the environment was.

There were no windows leading to the outside, all the doors were made of solid black metal, and the walls were covered with various "Danger Area" and "No Entry" signs.

The corridor twists and turns like a spider web, like a maze with no end.

If it weren't for Yuan Zhisheng's guidance, Xia Mo would definitely get lost, unless the shortest way was a straight line between two points.

Yuan Zhisheng used the electronic key to open one silver metal door after another and came to the depths of the Cauchy layer.

Here, there is a door that looks like a bank insurance vault. Behind the door are an operating table and various medical equipment. Yuan Zhisheng glanced at Xia Mo's surprised look and explained softly.

"Eri was weak and sickly when she was young, and she needed a doctor to check her health regularly."

Xia Mo nodded and said nothing.

All signs of the Cauchy layer indicate that it is holding a dangerous monster, very much like the boss in the Resident Evil game.

Who would have thought that at the end of the floor would be a beautiful red-haired witch?
Was it also such a gloomy environment when Ning Caichen met Xiaoqian?

After leaving the operating room, Xia Mo came to the Japanese-style house, which was the "home" where Eri had lived for eighteen years.

Gen Chisei glanced around the living room and was a little surprised not to see Eri. Usually Eri would be waiting for her in the living room.

"Eri, I'm back. Xia Mo is here to visit too." Gen Chisei shouted.

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of trotting footsteps was heard in the corridor. Eiry opened the door and poked her little head out with a rubber duck on her head. Due to the angle of her head, the rubber duck fell on the solid wood floor with a plop.

Eri's dark red hair was wet and fell to the ground, her bangs covering her left eye. Eri warily observed Xia Mo next to Gen Chisei, her cheeks moist and smooth.

At the same time, Eri's round shoulders were pink with water droplets still on them, and a corner of her slender and delicate collarbone was revealed.

When Gen Chisei saw this, he immediately realized that Eri was bathing. The child did not have any suspicion of physical contact between men and women, so he quickly turned around, fearing that Eri would run out freely.

"Eri, go back to the bathroom and put on your clothes before coming out." Gen Chisei said helplessly while carrying Eri on his back.

Eiry nodded like a chick pecking at rice, bent down and picked up the rubber duck. Xia Mo was amazed because she saw the fat, juicy duck pear.

Of course, Yuan Zhisheng didn't see this scene. Otherwise, instead of blaming Eri for not listening, he told her countless times that she needed to wear clothes when she was in the bath. But Yuan Zhisheng wanted to scold Xia Mo more, saying, "Don't show your amazed expression. Aren't you a girl? Haven't you seen a girl's breasts?"

Yuan Zhisheng heard the sound of the door closing again, sighed, and asked Xia Mo beside him.

"Has Eri gone in?"

"I did go in, but it was just the bathroom, not the police station."

"You still have the leisure to play word games at this time." Yuan Zhisheng was tired. He turned around, walked to the hot table and sat down. He picked up the tangerine that was used more as a bonsai than as an edible fruit, peeled it in a few seconds, and put the plump flesh into his mouth.

"Why don't you pull out the white silk?" Xia Mo asked in a condemning tone, just like a member of the sweet zongzi party questioning the salty zongzi party for being heretics.

Yuan Zhisheng rolled his eyes. He was too lazy to maintain the image of a cool and aloof male god in front of Xia Mo, so he completely gave in.

Xia Mo also peeled an orange for herself and ate it. She lowered her head and carefully picked out the white threads on the flesh one by one.

Yuan Zhisheng looked at Xia Mo peeling an orange, suddenly smiled, and said with emotion.

"Eri is just like you. She also likes to remove the orange peel when eating oranges. She does it slowly and methodically. This is also what she likes to do when she is quiet."

"Maybe it's because the head of the Uesugi family has too little experience. If it were me, I would be locked in this room all the time, not to mention peeling orange peels, I would even count the squares of tatami mats." Xia Mo said.

Yuan Zhisheng cannot deny it, he said.

"The only people who have set foot here so far are me and my father. You are the third person because you are the emperor." "The emperor's power is really great."

Xia Mo put the peeled orange into her mouth. The oranges that the Uesugi family mainly eat must be sweet and juicy. Xia Mo showed a happy expression.

She is easy to fool.

Yuan Zhisheng glanced at the satisfied expression on Xia Mo's face and spoke to himself.

"You probably don't know much about Eri's situation. Her bloodline is dangerous and she needs to be regularly infused with serum, otherwise she will go into a rampage state and her body will accelerate its transformation into a dragon."

"You've seen what Eri is like when she's in a rampage state. Thank you for what happened yesterday. If you hadn't stopped her, she wouldn't have been able to demolish the entire Genji Heavy Industries building."

"Who is Uesugi Erii? She is your sister. It's really interesting. You call Tachibana Masamune dad, but your surname is Genji, and you have recognized a woman from the Uesugi family as your sister." Xia Mo said.

Genno Chisei shrugged. "Genji, Tachibana, and Uesugi are the top three clans of the Snake clan. They look majestic and noble, but there is only me in the Genji clan, my father from Tachibana, and Erie from Uesugi clan."

"It was my dad who raised Eri, and I also recognize Mr. Masamune Tachibana as my dad, so it's okay for me to be Eri's brother. Eri's life experience is probably the same as mine, her parents also died young." Gen Chisei said self-deprecatingly.

"It's hard to say." Xia Mo said lightly.

What she meant was that there was more than just Eri in the Uesugi clan, there was also another Uesugi Kou who was somewhere unknown.

If Angé hadn't told Xia Mo not to tell the Sheqi Eight Clan the name of Uesugi Yue, Xia Mo would have insisted on asking what exactly Uesugi Yue meant to the Sheqi Eight Clan?
Xia Mo had a guess that Uesugi Yue might also be an emperor, or even the previous emperor.

"Who was your predecessor? I mean the emperor."

What surprised Xia Mo was that Yuan Zhisheng shook his head. "The previous emperor was a sinner in the family. The elderly are very taboo about this and don't allow anyone to mention it. Dad only said that the previous emperor betrayed the Sheqi Eight Clan. He was the only one in the history of the Sheqi Eight Clan."

"Oh?" Xia Mo smiled playfully.

"If we don't mention the matter between the last emperor and the head of the Shangshan family, will the conversation here be overheard?"

Yuan Zhisheng nodded and explained.

"In addition to private rooms such as bathrooms and bedrooms, there are micro-hole monitors and eavesdropping devices in the living room."

"Are you playing The Truman Show?"

"Truman's world is not so narrow. He only discovered the truth later. Eri knew from the beginning that she was living under surveillance by others."

Yuan Zhisheng whispered that he didn't know what expression to use when facing Xia Mo. This was obviously an internal matter of the Sheqi Eight Families and had nothing to do with Xia Mo, an outsider.

Xia Mo was silent.

She doesn't have the ability to profile, but she still has basic empathy. Xia Mo puts herself in Eri's shoes and has lived in this small cage for eighteen years. From the moment Eri became conscious, how did she view the adults who were observing her?

It's quite pitiful, Xia Mo thought.

To be honest, the impression that Eri gave to Xia Mo was not that of a weak and cute person. Last night, Eri was very fierce and Xia Mo almost couldn't stand it.

This left an indelible impression on Xia Mo.

At this time, the door was opened again, and Eri, who had wiped herself clean and changed into a miko's outfit, came trotting out...

 Today is my friend's birthday, so I went out for dinner and started typing when I got back. I'm so hardworking! But now I'm so sleepy and thirsty.

  I had originally planned to finish two chapters in the afternoon and two chapters in the evening to make up for what I owed yesterday, but I didn't expect that I would owe another chapter today. I will definitely finish the two chapters I owe this week, and the seven chapters about the leader next week. So far, the author has kept his word.

  I give you a heart, and I want to stick with you.
