"You two have such a good relationship, you must know a lot, right?"

The girl's face was full of gossip, and even the little red-haired girl looked at him curiously, her dark red eyes sparkling.

Chu Zihang hesitated: "...Actually, I didn't know her name was Zhinu before today. She told me her name was Fengjian Liuli."

"So, what's her name?"

Eri: “?”

Sakurai Kogure: “…”

...

The pitch-black stretched Hummer was parked quietly outside the airport. The rear compartment was a private space, completely isolated from the driver's seat, and decorated with pitch-black wood and pure white lambskin.

The back seat has a lot of space. In the constant temperature wine cabinet, the crystal wine glasses clinked as the car body swayed. Uesugi Yue skillfully picked up a wine glass and opened the ice bucket at the same time, looking at Yuan Zhinv with an inquiring look.

Genji: "Vodka."

"Girls shouldn't always drink such strong alcohol, and shouldn't always smoke cigars. I can smell the cigarette smoke on you. Your brother doesn't even smoke cigars..."

Uesugi Yue kept complaining, but still picked up the bottle of vodka and poured a full glass for Genji.

"Thank you." Genji took the wine glass, ignored Uesugi Yue's complaints, and said straight to the point: "I have something I want to discuss with you."

"what's up?"

"Did you see the injured man on the stretcher just now?"

"I saw it. What's wrong? Is there anything special about that person?" Uesugi Yue frowned when he asked this question. A strong sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart because he felt that Gen Chitose was obviously paying too much attention to that person.

When he received the call, he found it hard to imagine that Gen Chinuo would make such a fuss for a guy. He knew Gen Chinuo's character and knew she would never bother him unless necessary, so how much did she care for him to call him without hesitation?

Add to that her serious attitude now, how come it looks like she's bringing the boy she likes to meet his parents?

The more Uesugi thought about it, the more anxious he became, and he almost couldn't sit still. He couldn't imagine Genjiro falling in love with a boy. He felt like his own cabbage was being eaten by a pig.

He racked his brains to think of the right words, and spoke carefully: "Young girl, I think you are still young, there is no need to be so anxious to consider your lifelong affairs."

Yuan Zhinv: “?”

He advised earnestly: "You should meet more people to know who is right for you. Don't make a hasty decision!"

Yuan Zongnu: "..."

Yuan Zhinu was speechless: "Dad, you misunderstood. I'm not familiar with that guy. What are you thinking? And I prefer girls."

Uesugi was surprised: "Ah?"

Yuan Zhinv realized that she seemed to have let something slip, and quickly changed the subject: "Actually, that guy is a dragon."

"What dragon? You better explain yourself clearly. What do you mean you like girls? Is it Xiao Mu? I knew that girl had bad intentions towards you!"

Yuan Zhinv looked at him speechlessly, and Uesugi Yue immediately became intimidated and shut up, clumsily changing the subject: "Then let's talk about dragons."

"Wait, what is that?" Uesugi Yue suddenly realized something and widened his eyes: "What do you think that thing is?"

"It's a dragon."

Yuan Zhinv added word by word: "Do you know Norton? The King of Bronze and Fire is him, but he has not awakened yet and currently mistakenly believes that he is a human."

Uesugi Yue muttered dully: "...Actually, I don't really want to know."

Chapter 84: How about just one sentence about raising a dragon?

Just a few months ago, Uesugi Yue thought that he would depend on that small ramen stand until his death. It would be best if he could go to France before he died and close his eyes while listening to the bells in the church in his memory.

Countless nuns will pray for him, and he will be buried under God's care, lonely and holy.

If it was at that time, he would never have imagined that a few months later he would be sitting in the private car of the Japanese underworld patriarch, listening to his daughter say that she brought back a dragon.

But Yuan Zhinv didn't think there was anything wrong: "He hasn't awakened and hasn't recovered his memory. He's just an ordinary person now. I think we can keep him in captivity."

Captive, one-stop service?

Uesugi Yue felt that he had heard it wrongly. Several question marks slowly appeared on his forehead. He couldn't help but ask: "Why not just kill him?"

"Hybrids and dragons are natural enemies. Isn't now the best time to kill this guy before he recovers his strength?"

"I was originally going to kill him, but there was a nasty guy plotting against me. He seemed to want to make me kill Norton and become the next Herzog."

Upon hearing this, Uesugi Yue subconsciously widened his eyes, but what Genjiro said next shocked him even more.

"Dad, I showed you Herzog's files. Do you remember there was a guy named Bondarev in it?"

"I seem to have some impression of him. What happened to him?"

"That guy is the culprit of everything. Herzog is a pawn controlled by him. He has been hiding behind the scenes. He paved all the way for Herzog."

Genjitsu told Uesugi Koshi all her guesses and things about Bondarev, and Uesugi Koshi's expression became more and more interesting as he listened, until in the end he was completely in disbelief.

"I killed one of his doubles, but I don't know where his real body is hiding. I suspect he might be some damned dragon king."

"He wanted to revive the White King and then kill him. Maybe it was to test whether a human could seize the king's power, or maybe it was for the White King's body. But Herzog is dead, so he is targeting me now."

"He wants to turn me into the new White King and then kill me."

The calm voice of Minamoto Chikōjo was like a thunderclap, which frightened Uesugi Yue so much that he broke out in a cold sweat. This huge conspiracy was like a big net, covering him up and making him feel suffocated subconsciously.

But looking at the thin and pale girl in front of him, a huge anger exploded in his heart, almost burning out his sanity.

"I will never allow this to happen!" Veins popped out on the old man's forehead, his eyes widened with anger, and he gritted his teeth: "I will kill that guy!"

Compared to his excitement, Yuan Zhinv acted very calm and indifferent: "There's nothing wrong with being the White King. It's still uncertain who will kill whom. I'm mainly worried that there's a trap here."

Full of anger, Uesugi was stunned: "What?"

"Anyway, Dad, you need to pay attention to this matter. Don't let anyone with ulterior motives enter the Snake Eight Families. The Japanese underworld must not be used as pawns again. As for whether to kill Norton or not, I won't have an answer until two days later."

Calculating the time, there were still more than ten hours before the simulator refreshed the simulation times. Yuan Zhinv gave a perfunctory reason: "I need to think about it."

Uesugi Yue seemed to want to say something, but in the end all the words were swallowed back. He sighed, his voice filled with helplessness.

"Little girl, sometimes you can rely on us a little more."

Genjitsu didn't say anything. Looking at the girl's pale face, Uesugi Yue couldn't stop feeling heartbroken. However, he didn't say anything in the end. He just made a secret decision in his heart.

Even if he can't help her, the Eight Snake Clans under his command will never become her weakness. He will be her strongest backing.

There was no conversation along the way until Yuan Zhinu returned to the familiar room. She had just sat down when she heard a slight noise behind her.

Yuan Zhinu did not look back. After a moment, a pair of soft hands supported her head and gently massaged several acupoints. A familiar warm fragrance lingered at her nose.

Genji closed her eyes in relaxation, and Sakurai Kogure's gentle voice sounded in her ears, with an undisguised heartache in her tone.

"It seems like you're always tired. You've done a good job. Can't you give yourself a break?"

"But the crisis is not over yet." Yuan Zhinv sighed softly: "Once we kill all those damn things, we should be able to rest."

"Will it take long?"

"It will take a long time."

Sakurai Kogure didn't say anything else. Genjitsu became more and more relaxed under her gentle massage. Smelling the faint warm fragrance, the irritability that had always lingered in her heart was slowly soothed, and her breathing gradually became even.

Since coming to Tokyo many years ago, the pressure and challenges that Genji faces every day are unimaginable. She has been on the verge of life and death countless times, causing her to suffer a mental breakdown and turn into a bloodthirsty madman. At such times, only Sakurai Kogure can comfort her.

Sakurai Kogure looked at the sleeping girl and carefully held her in his arms. She sat contentedly on the edge of the bed, closed her eyes and moved her lips.

"No matter how long it takes, I will always be with you."

The sound was very light and disappeared in the quiet room in an instant as if it had never sounded, leaving only a dim light in the room.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened. In the dim room, the charming girl hugged the pale and thin girl tightly, just like countless nights before.

Yuan Zhinu had a rare good night's sleep.

When she woke up and opened her eyes, it was already bright outside. There was a steaming breakfast beside the bed and next to it was her cleaned and polished long knife with a note underneath it.

Genji picked up the note and took a look. On it was Sakurai Kogure's beautiful handwriting:

——Eri insisted on coming to see you, so I took her out to play. Go ahead and do whatever you want to do.

——Remember to eat breakfast.

With a slight emotion in her heart, Yuan Zhinu packed up briefly, then went out with the knife and breakfast.

The simulator times were refreshed, and she headed straight to where Old Tang was.

Because of her instructions, the man was now hidden in the deepest part of Genji Heavy Industries, under heavy surveillance everywhere. He had not woken up yet due to his serious injuries, otherwise he would have been scared to death seeing such a big scene.

Yuan Zhinu came to the man's side without any hindrance. Looking at his pale and peaceful sleeping face, she slowly raised the knife and imagined chopping off his head with one blow. At the same time, she silently said in her heart: "Begin the simulation."

[Ding, simulation begins——]

[On the first day, you killed the defenseless Old Tang and cut off his head with a single blow. He died, and at the moment of death his body suddenly exploded. The huge flames caused a violent burning, affecting the entire Genji Heavy Industries.]

[On the second day, you were injured in the flames, and you discovered that your bloodline had not improved significantly. The experience gained was even less than that of the dragon corpse. You were very confused.]

[On the third day, you couldn't find the reason, and Old Tang didn't turn into a dragon bone cross, but you confirmed that he was Norton]

【…】

[On the 7th day, Lao Tang’s body disappeared]

【…】

[On the 13th day, you returned to the academy, but you still felt strange. You thought that the Dragon King should not have only this little experience. You continued to browse the Hunter Network to try to find the answer.]

【…】

[On the 32nd day, you found a senior scholar who studies dragons on the Hunter website. You asked him about it and it seemed like you had discovered something.]

【…】

[On the 45th day, you finally know where the problem lies. Dragon Kings cannot be considered dragons before they awaken. If you kill them before they awaken their power, you will not get the Dragon Bone Cross. They are not really dead and will turn into cocoons on the spot again, so their bodies will not decay.]

[Day 46, you realize that killing a dragon that has not yet awakened will not gain you any power, and Norton is not really dead. His body has become his cocoon, but you don't know who stole him.]

[Day 47, the academy is preparing to send people to China's Three Gorges Reservoir, apparently preparing to carry out some mission]

【…】

[On the 52nd day, the academy opened the "Kuimen" mission. You know that they are going to find Constantine. You apply to carry out the mission.]
