My fiancée Yukino

"Others may not understand, but for us, this kind of relationship is quite good."

As they were talking, Luo Bai led Yukino to sit down and introduced Sima Weizhi and the others to Yukino one by one.

After the introductions were completed, Luo Bai inquired about the children who had been sent there.

"Because we had been waiting for your progress, Mr. Mado sent us a message as soon as the first batch of children returned, and we went there immediately. Although the children were a little uneasy at first, it wasn't too difficult because the elder who had been taking care of them was also there. In the process of helping to settle these children, we also got along well with them. They are all good children, very well-behaved and obedient, and also very pitiful. Later, when Enju brought a new batch of children, as well as the blind child that Mitsuri and the others brought, we were the first to see them."

Enju Aihara sat happily next to Rentaro Satomi, hugging his arm and saying, "The blind child was sent to the medical team for examination as soon as he arrived. Before we came back, a treatment plan had already been formulated. By the time we return next time, he should be cured and able to see again!"

These events brought smiles to Luo Bai and the others' faces.

Volume 1: Chapter 353 Hiruko Kagetane Who Came Here (1/2)

After staying there for about half an hour, Yukino went back; there were still many things she needed to do there.

Not long after Yukino left, Luo Bai sensed an aura suddenly appearing outside the villa, the same one he had fought earlier that day.

It was Hiruko Kageyu.

Luo Bai stood up from the sofa and said to Shinobu Kocho, "Shinobu, go and bring Hina out. Her father is here, and I'm going to see him."

Upon hearing Luo Bai's words, everyone else became alert.

Luo Bai smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, there's no murderous intent. They're probably not here to fight. Relax."

After Shinobu went upstairs, Luo Bai arrived at the villa entrance, pushed open the door, and walked out.

In the front yard of the villa, Hiruko Kagehira, dressed in a tuxedo, calmly watched Luo Bai emerge with his hands behind his back.

"Luo Bai-kun, good evening. Has Hina caused any trouble?"

"Yes, she had a good dinner and behaved much better."

Nodding, Luo Bai stopped in front of Hiruko Kagetane and asked, "So why are you here now? You should know that Tendo Kikunojo has been arrested, and many officials in his faction have been dismissed, right? There's no need for you to complete your request."

"Of course, I found out about all this immediately. I have to say, Luo Baijun, your side is really amazing. The information gathering was so thorough that the other side didn't even have time to react. It's really difficult to be your opponent. I can't beat you in a fight, and your information gathering is also amazing. I admit defeat."

Seeing Hiruko Kagetane admit defeat so easily, Luo Bai wasn't surprised, since he really didn't have many other options.

It's impossible for him to defeat Luo Bai, let alone if Satomi Rentaro, Aihara Enju, and Tendo Kisara join forces; he would most likely lose anyway.

Moreover, his own originator, Kohina, had also become the other party's prisoner. Considering all factors, it was not so easy to fight against them.

As they were talking, Shinobu Kocho came out with Hina, whose hands were tied.

Upon seeing her father, Hiruko Kohina immediately exclaimed excitedly, "Dad!"

Seeing that his daughter was safe and sound, Hiruko Kagetane looked at Luo Bai and said, "Then, Luo Bai-kun, can you return my daughter to me?"

"What do you think?"

Luo Bai narrowed his eyes and looked at Hiruko Kagetane, saying, "Who exactly are this child's biological parents?"

"Still doubting this?" Hiruko Kagetane said with a troubled expression, his arms crossed. "But I didn't lie to you, she really is my child. It's just that it took me a lot of effort to find such a perfect child. Ah, I'm a little afraid to say what I'm about to say, I feel like if I do, Luo Bai-jun will kill me."

"If you don't talk, I'll take action right now."

Hiruko Kagetane immediately raised his hands: "Alright, alright, I'll tell you. Ten years ago, I captured five women and artificially inseminated them, which resulted in five cursed children. After brainwashing them, I made them kill each other, and the one who stood out in the end was Kohina."

These words made Shinobu Kocho, who was standing next to Hiruko Kohina, frown.

"What about the five women you kidnapped?"

"I sent them back after they gave birth, and I haven't paid attention to what happened afterward. They are the mothers of my children, after all, and I could never kill them."

So, is it brainwashing?

Looking at Hiruko Kohina, Luo Bai said, "Do you think you'll still have a chance to take her away after you tell her all this?"

“Indeed, no.” Shaking his head, Hiruko Kagetane chuckled, “I probably already knew that was the case, after all, many of the Cursed Children have been taken away by you, haven’t they? But that’s fine, I don’t need Kohina’s help with what I’m going to do next, I can do it myself. As for her, I’ll leave her in your care from now on.”

“We would have done it without you telling us.”

Upon hearing Hiruko Kagetane's words, Hiruko Kohina exclaimed in panic, "Dad, don't you want me anymore?"

“My daughter, we are the defeated side, so we have no right to make demands. If your father does not agree to his demands, I will die. Besides, it won’t be a bad thing for you to go with them in the future. At least you will have good food and drink and everything you need.”

Hiruko Kagetane smiled and shook his head, then looked at Luo Bai and said, "Luo Bai-kun, aren't you worried that I might do something harmful to the Tokyo area next?"

“I’m not interested in the safety of this place, and I don’t think you can do anything by yourself unless you can bring over the other five stages.”

"Haha, I really can't do that, but let me give you a heads-up: just because I can't do it doesn't mean others can't, especially that assistant official who's been controlled by His Majesty the Holy Emperor. Kikunojo Tendo, he has a lot of trump cards up his sleeve, not just the Seven Stars' legacy~~ Well then, let's meet again sometime in the future."

He bowed to Luo Bai and Kocho Shinobu, glanced at Hiruko Kohina, and then turned and left without hesitation.

As he left, bursts of gunfire could be heard in the distance.

Without a doubt, he must have been discovered on his way here by the defense forces.

They've come to snipe.

But ordinary soldiers alone are no match for Hiruko Kagetane.

Five minutes later, Luo Bai's phone rang; it was a number he didn't recognize.

After the connection was established, the voice of the Holy Emperor came through.

Good evening, Luo Baijun.

"Oh, it's His Majesty the Holy Emperor. Good evening, what can I do for you?"

"Luo Bai-kun, can you tell me what you and Hiruko Kagetane just discussed? He broke through the interception set up by our troops and escaped."

"As for Hiruko Kagetane, he wanted to come and take his daughter back, but we refused. Then I learned about his relationship with Hiruko Kohina from him."

Then, Luo Bai repeated what Hiruko Kagetane had said, including the information that Tendo Kikunojo might have more trump cards up his sleeve.

After listening, the Holy Emperor remained silent for a long time before saying in a low voice, "Is that so? To create an Initiator that perfectly meets his requirements, he actually did such a thing. Next, I will continue to send people to search for and arrest him. I will also investigate the other trump cards of Tendou Kikunojo. Well then, excuse me, Lord Luo Bai."

"Don't hang up yet, there's something else I need to tell you."

After thinking for a moment, Luo Bai said, "Are you free tomorrow night? We have a dinner party here and would like to invite you to attend. There are some things related to Sima Heavy Industries that we need to discuss with you."

"Sima Heavy Industry... Okay, I understand. I'll make time for it."

"Okay, see you tomorrow then."

Volume 1: Chapter 354 The Situation of the Cursed Child (2/2)

After hanging up the phone, Luo Bai glanced at Hiruko Kohina, who was sitting dejectedly on the sofa, and said to Kocho Shinobu, "Shinobu, take this child home. As for how to treat her..."

At this point, Luo Bai took out his phone and sent a message to Shinobu Kocho.

[After bringing her back, find Lucoa, Tohru, or Elma and have them change Hina's memories so she can start over.]

While brainwashing can be reversed, the things Hina did in the past afterward will still affect her for the rest of her life.

So Luo Bai thought, why not just delete all those past memories and start all over again?

After all, she's only ten years old; she has a long life ahead of her.

After reading Luo Bai's thoughts, Shinobu Kocho nodded: "Okay, I understand. I'll go find Mr. Mato. I thought I'd have to wait until tomorrow, but who would have thought that Hiruko Kagetane would arrive so quickly."

Soon, after a phone call from Shinobu Kocho, Masato Kakuzu arrived.

Luo Bai also told him about meeting the Holy Emperor tomorrow, and Zhen Tu Huojin immediately agreed.

"Yes, that's definitely possible."

Masato Kakuzu nodded. "Things in the Tokyo area are basically over. Next, we'll head to other regions and bring back any Cursed Children we can. Things won't be so leisurely after that, so get ready, Luo Bai-kun."

"I knew, I was mentally prepared for it."

Seeing that Mato Mokuzu was about to take Hiruko Kohina back, Shiba Miori stood up curiously: "Um, can I go with them and take a look?"

Masato Kazumi smiled and nodded: "Of course you can, Ms. Shiba Miori. The flow of time is different between the two worlds. If you stay there for a few hours or even a day, not much time will pass here. So, Satomi-kun and Ms. Tendo, would you like to come along?"

They both shook their heads.

Rentaro Satomi said, "I plan to go back to the apartment with Enju tomorrow to pack our luggage. We'll talk about it later; we're not in a hurry."

Tendo Kisara also said, "I also need to prepare to deal with the Tendo family. I'll go after everything is over."

Tendo Kisara's words made Satomi Rentaro glance at her, but he ultimately didn't say anything he wanted to say to stop her.

Then, Mato Mokuzu opened the portal once again, taking Shiba Miori, Kocho Shinobu, and Hiruko Kohina back to the other world.

After Shinobu Kocho left, Luo Bai stretched and said, "I'm going to take a shower. You guys can do as you please."

It wasn't until after 11 p.m. that Shinobu Kocho and Miori Shiba returned.

Although she wasn't quite used to the time difference between the two sides, Sima Weizhi was still very excited.

"What a peaceful world! No Gastrea, it's fantastic! I can't wait to move there!"

Besides learning about the basic situation in that world, Sima Weizhi also underwent a physical examination at the base's medical department to check if she had gastroenteritis.

As expected, the results did indeed reveal a very minute, almost undetectable amount of the virus, a trace amount that wouldn't cause human mutation.

However, since it was discovered, it definitely needed to be treated. A simple vial of medicine was enough to eliminate all the viruses in Sima Weizhi's body.

After coming out of the bathroom and brushing his teeth, Luo Bai saw the two of them return and asked with a smile, "How were you feeling?"

Sima Weizhi nodded happily: "That's great! This must be the best decision I've ever made in my life! Goodnight, I'm going back to rest!"

After Sima Miori returned to her room, Luo Bai and Kocho Shinobu also returned to their rooms.

Shinobu Kocho brought up the arrangements for Hiruko Kohina.

The child's personality was difficult to handle, so Uzui Tengen's three wives, who were still there, stayed behind to take care of her. Once she was more stable, they prepared to begin modifying her memories.

This is a big project, and it will take about a month to complete.

Leaning against Luo Bai's chest, Shinobu Kocho said softly, "That blind child is still malnourished, so treatment hasn't started immediately. We can begin once he's recovered a bit."

"Yes, that's definitely a safer approach. Hopefully, by the time we get back, the child will have regained his sight."

As he spoke, Luo Bai hugged Butterfly Ninja even tighter.

"It's getting late, let's get some rest. We'll finish up some odds and ends tomorrow, and then we'll be heading to other regions the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, goodnight, Luo Jun."

.........

After resting for a night, Luo Bai and Shinobu Kocho, like Rentaro Satomi and the others, returned to their apartment to pack up some things they had left there, and then went directly to Sima Heavy Industries.

Sima Weizhi's side is also packing up the things to take away. Some core data has been copied into a special storage device, and spare copies of some core high-precision equipment have been taken out to take directly.

As for talent, not much will be taken away; only a few veteran technicians loyal to the Sima family, and their families.

Sima Weizhi's only relatives are her parents; no one else is being considered.

The Sima family is also a large family with complex family relationships. Although Sima Weizhi's parents are in charge of Sima Heavy Industry and he is the future heir, there are also many parasites and traitors in the family.

Sima Weizhi also planned to thoroughly clean up the group of people with serious problems before leaving, and then hand over the cleaned-up Sima Heavy Industry to the Holy Emperor.

This is considered their family.

This was the final act of support for the Holy Emperor.

When they arrived, Masato Masatsu was already there, leading several team members to move some large equipment.

"We've already found a new address for your Sima Heavy Industries. Once you arrive, we can start recruiting and all aspects of construction and preparation immediately. We'll help you settle in this new world and new city as quickly as possible, so please rest assured."

Sima Miori's father also happily shook hands with Mato Mokujin, full of expectations for the future.

Meanwhile, Shima Miori came over to Luo Bai and Kocho Shinobu and whispered, "You two should go to the Ministry of Defense this afternoon. The interrogation of Tendo Kikunojo is about to begin."

Luo Bai nodded: "Okay, I understand. We'll get there."

At noon, Luo Bai and his group were dragged along by Sima Weizhi's parents to have a simple meal before setting off for the Ministry of Defense.

Halfway there, they spotted a small figure ahead.

Volume 1: Chapter 355 Tina Sprantt (1/2)

A little girl with blonde hair, wearing a pink pajama, walked along the road in a daze, her eyes half-open, clearly still half asleep.

Holding Luo Bai's arm, Shinobu Kocho said, "Luo-kun, that child's aura is a bit strange. He should be a cursed child."

Luo Bai nodded: "Yes, that's right, and he's not just any ordinary cursed child."
