"of course."
Ange smiled slightly, and the invisible sense of oppression disappeared instantly. He turned back into the gentle old gentleman and even played a little joke with his student's sister:
"I spent so much money to take a picture of my own folding knife, so naturally I want to hear the secret."
Yuan Zhinv thought for a moment and spoke carefully: "The story begins several decades ago, in the north of Siberia, within the Arctic Circle, there was an unnamed port that could only be reached by icebreakers..."
Gen Chitose is not a good storyteller, and many details are even unclear, but her calm voice without any ups and downs has a magical power that can make people calm down inexplicably.
She calmly takes the listeners back to the cold winter of 1991, to the shore of the Arctic Ocean, on the chalky snowfield of Siberia, to the lonely fortress called Black Swan Port, the keel, the secret research institute, the orphanage, and the fire that lit up half the sky.
"Finally, Herzog took the ancient dragon embryo aboard the Lenin. The giant ship sailed eastward, toward Japan, and finally sank into the deep sea."
"Now, under the strait of Japan, the Lenin and the ancient dragon embryo are trapped inside. They are the sacrifices carefully selected by Herzog. The fresh fetal blood of the embryo feeds the real owner of the strait, which is a sleeping dragon. What Herzog really wants to resurrect is the White King."
"He played two roles. He appeared out of nowhere more than 20 years ago. He used the identity of Tachibana Masamune to control the Japanese branch, and used the identity of the king to control the demons. The whole of Japan was played in his hands, and everyone was fooled by him."
"My brother and I are both chess pieces controlled by him." At this point, Yuan Zhinv paused and smiled with a hint of self-mockery: "But I am not a very obedient chess piece."
"I have been trying to disrupt his plan for more than three years. I have conducted various experiments, but none of them have worked. I have killed more than a hundred of his substitutes, but I have never even seen his real body."
"I don't have any evidence either. This is all information I got from being around him over the years. But the time, place and port are all true. You can check it out."
After the story was told, there was a long silence.
Ange didn't say a word from beginning to end. He just played with the folding knife quietly, with his eyes lowered as if in deep thought.
There was no expression on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking after hearing this story.
Genjitsu didn't say anything either. She had said everything she wanted to say. She told everything she knew and even predicted things that hadn't happened yet. All she had to do now was wait and see what would happen.
The whole of Japan is full of enemies. Minamoto Chitose can't find a suitable ally here. Her father is hiding in some corner selling ramen and can't be found. Her brother is a stubborn idiot, so she can only take a risk.
At least Ange is the most suitable ally she can think of. Compared with other people with different thoughts, Ange is the purest. All those who want to resurrect the dragon are his enemies. From this point of view, they are on the same front.
So she will try her best to convince Ange that she needs the help of Kassel College.
I don't know how much time passed. Just when Yuan Zhinv was gradually becoming uneasy and anxious, and even doubting that she would not get an answer, Angé finally spoke slowly.
"It's a very interesting secret." He commented calmly: "It's worth the price."
Yuan Zhinu felt inexplicably guilty. To be honest, she didn't know how much Angers had spent on the folding knife. Logically, he shouldn't have to pay to get his things back, but since he said the secret was worth the price, Yuan Zhinu naturally had to agree.
Although you always have to show sincerity when asking someone for help, there is no regulation on who should show this sincerity. How can the sincerity of the person being asked not be counted as sincerity?
"But compared to this secret, I'm more curious about you."
Ange changed the subject, his eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze sharp and even a little sharp: "In this story you told, what role do you play?"
"It's hard to believe that he was able to find out so many core secrets even though he lived under surveillance since he was a child..."
Yuan Zhinu knew that she was being doubted, but what she said was true, and her background was clean, so she was not afraid of being investigated, so she said bluntly: "Maybe I am gifted."
"Then why are you telling me this?"
"You brought me to Japan with such fanfare, just to tell me this. What is your purpose?"
Yuan Zhinu looked straight into Ange's eyes and said word by word: "I want freedom."
"I have been controlled by him since I was born, but I don't want to be a pawn in his hands, I don't want to be controlled by his life and death, and I don't want to rush to the damn fate he has written for me."
"The whole of Japan is like a huge net that has locked me and my brother in. I can't break free from the inside, so I can only seek help from the outside."
"I know that you, Principal, are a staunch dragon slayer. We are absolutely on the same page in this regard, and I want to cooperate with you."
"If you save me, I will help you kill the White King."
"Kill the White King? Just by you?"
"Just me."
As these three words fell, Yuan Zhinu's eyes lit up with dazzling molten gold, flashing with the light of karmic fire.
It was still that gentle and delicate face, but at this moment, Yuan Zhinu was as strong as a diamond. An overwhelming and irresistible majesty burst out from her body. At that moment, she seemed like an emperor sitting high on the throne, so arrogant and insolent.
Ange looked at her quietly, the tit-for-tat pressure quietly dissipated, and he sighed softly.
"You remind me of an old friend."
Yuan Zhinv looked at him in confusion.
"But if, as you said, your bloodline comes from the previous emperor, then that's almost right."
The voice sighed softly, seeming helpless and full of emotion.
"No wonder he looks like an old friend. He turns out to be the son of an old friend."
Before Yuan Zhinv could ask, Angé had already stood up. He reached out and patted her thin shoulder, and his tone softened.
"Don't worry, I'll take you away."
"But you are wrong about one thing. I am not a determined dragon slayer. I am just an unwilling avenger."
Chapter 23: The Chess Piece Jumps Out of the Board
From beginning to end, Ange never questioned what Minamoto Chino said.
It’s as if it’s really just a story. No matter how thrilling and bizarre it is, it’s just a story and there’s no need to delve into it.
But everyone knows that this is definitely not a simple story.
And Ange might not have been without doubts, but he buried all his doubts in his heart. He would not ask Genjitsu because he did not believe Genjitsu.
At least not completely.
Maybe he will start to investigate after leaving this door, or maybe he has started to suspect the Japanese branch even earlier. In short, his face will not reveal anything he thinks.
This kind of person is the most terrifying. You never know what cards he has or how many back-up plans he has prepared. He is always confident of victory and can remain calm no matter what happens.
This is a kind of absolute self-confidence, which comes from absolute trust in his own strength and absolute control over the situation. Therefore, he doesn't care whether the news is true or false, because he is confident of dealing with it regardless of whether it is true or false.
Once again, Genjitsu felt that she had chosen the right person.
Perhaps only by cooperating with such a person can we defeat Herzog. After all, the nemesis of a madman can only be a crazier madman.
Compared to brutal dragons, dark people are often more difficult to deal with. The reason why Herzog is so difficult to deal with is because he always hides in the dark.
"What's the next plan?" Feeling that she had seen hope, Yuan Zhinv was very excited. Her hands were eager to move and she couldn't wait to chop off Herzog's dog head.
But Angers just said, "No hurry."
"It's not yet time."
Yuan Zhinv asked him what time it was and how long they had to wait, but Angers didn't answer. The eyes of this unbelievably handsome old man were so deep that it was difficult to read.
It was obvious that he had his own thoughts, and he wasn't going to tell Minamoto no Chitose.
Yuan Zhinv couldn't get an answer, so she had to give up and settle for the next best thing: "No matter when your time is, before that, I want to leave Japan."
In fact, it doesn’t matter whether she goes to Kassel College or not. Yuan Zhinu just wants to escape from this spider-web-like place. She has been under constant surveillance for twenty-one years, and she is fed up with the feeling of living in a cage.
"Of course." Ange shrugged. "If you want, you can take the plane with me tonight, and tomorrow morning you can watch the first rays of dawn fall on the teaching building on campus at Kassel College."
Hearing this, Yuan Zhinu finally let go of her worries and smiled with relief: "I'm very happy to do so."
Although she didn't know what Ange was waiting for, and why he was unwilling to take action against Herzog's Japanese branch immediately, as long as she could be taken away, she could avoid many conspiracies and even avoid Yuan Zhisheng, thus solving the urgent problem.
As for the rest, we can discuss it later.
After all, it is undoubtedly a pipe dream to easily break Herzog's plan that has lasted for more than 20 years. Planning and preparation are essential, and the first step is to get out of his control.
"Of course I can take you any time."
"It's just... can you leave so easily?" Ange scratched his head. "I mean, does the general have any leverage over you that he would kill you if you leave?"
Yuan Zhinu thought about it and couldn't help but hesitate.
Finally she said, "I'll take care of General Wang's side. Give me some time."
……
In the fully enclosed basement of the Paradise Hall, Yuan Zhinv pushed open the door and saw Wang Jiang standing inside. He looked a little anxious, and it was a rare moment without a smile on his face.
"What does Ange want you to do?"
"I'm going to Kassel College."
Two voices sounded at the same time, and then both sides were stunned.
Wang's expression on the strange mask was distorted, and he almost subconsciously said in surprise: "Kassel College? You are going to Kassel College?!"
Yuan Zhinv didn't think there was anything wrong with this at all, and even said with a righteous tone: "Yes, I want to go to Kassel College to study at university. My high school diploma makes me feel inferior."
Wang Jiang: “…”
Do you believe this?
General Wang felt that he had been fooled. This chess piece that had always refused to be controlled by him was finally about to jump out of the chessboard. At this moment, a surge of murderous intent burned in his heart.
Yuan Zhinu had been on the brink of life and death for three years, and she sensed the chilling murderous intent almost instantly, but she didn't care at all, with a half-smile on her face:
"It's just a joke, teacher, you won't mind, right?"
Wang Jiang's expression was still as cold as steel, his eyes as cold as a knife: "What is going on?"
Genji shrugged indifferently: "Ange thinks there is something wrong with the Japanese branch and wants to support the Oni Clan."
This was said suddenly, and the king was stunned: "What?"
Genji sighed, "It's exactly what it says. Ange suspected that old man Tachibana Masamune had a problem. He suddenly appeared 20 years ago and inexplicably tamed the scattered Japanese half-bloods. The Japanese branch has also become increasingly disobedient."
"He promised me that he would support the Ghost Clan to become the new Japanese branch, and the price was that I went to Kassel College. What is this called, a hostage?"
Yuan Zhinu tilted her head with an innocent expression: "What do you think, teacher?"
The expression on General Wang's face changed rapidly. He looked very angry, but there seemed to be other emotions mixed in with his anger, so complicated that it was difficult to understand.
The murderous intent gradually faded away, and his brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to refuse without leaving a trace.
Minamoto no Chitose was one of the most important cards in his hand, and she must not leave Japan easily. But before he could even open his mouth, he was interrupted.
As if she remembered something, Genji suddenly said, "But I see that everyone in the fierce ghost group is very happy. They seem to want to replace the main family?"
Wang Jiang froze and raised his head in disbelief: "You told everyone?"
