What does it have to do with me if they hate vests?

"If you want to play stalker, I hope you can at least act professionally. Otherwise, I can't even pretend that I didn't notice..."

Fuyuo Kiku sighed.

"Huff, huff, you're worthy of being a Cang Yin vampire. You actually noticed my presence in an instant!" Seeing that she seemed to have been exposed, the girl walked out from behind the tree and spoke loudly in a rather dramatic tone.

No, no, no, I won’t talk about the shadows on the ground and stuff like that, but since you’re following me, you should be a little more cautious. Now, just the clattering sound of your little leather shoes on the cobblestone road is enough to expose you completely, okay!

"Don't give people random settings. Vampires would have melted if they walked under the sun!" Fuyuo Kishige complained in a gloomy tone that was quite consistent with his character.

The girl hesitated for a moment and said uncertainly: "A blue-silver hybrid vampire?"

"It feels subtly weakened, and I don't plan to be a vampire hunter..."

"Silver Werewolf?"

"Isn't this even a change of species?"

"Cang Yin's hybrid werewolf?"

"Isn't that a Husky? Don't think you can get away with anything by adding a mixed-blood name to it!"

Chapter 48: Social elites are not as good as middle school girls

Humans always seek the unknown.

In a sense, this desire for knowledge is one of the key factors that has enabled mankind to develop from the ignorant age to the present.

But in the uncivilized times, people always maintained a sense of awe for the "unknown", and materializing phenomena and natural disasters as so-called gods was the most typical manifestation of this phenomenon.

Today, children who have just entered puberty or have not yet left puberty always fantasize that they are different from others, that they possess the power of the "unknown", and that they are the most noble and noble existence hidden among all living beings.

This situation is generally what is called the second-year syndrome.

Before traveling through time, Shi Ji had naturally gone through a similar period, but as he was still an ordinary person at the time, this kind of second-year mentality was hidden deep in his heart and he generally didn't show it - unless he could pick up a particularly handy stick or something on the road.

After traveling to this parallel world, obtaining the system, and being able to master a certain degree of supernatural power, Shiki no longer had the same middle school mentality as before. It is unknown whether the two years of non-stop office life has worn away his edges, or whether supernatural power is not as unique as he thought...

Perhaps it was because Qiu Ling Wenping's experience in the ups and downs of the business world had such a profound impact on Si Ji that he now subconsciously wanted to control everything around him and minimize the occurrence of accidents.

However, he had not expected to suddenly gain a strange admirer.

"So humans are just so interesting." Shiki, now 'Fuyu Kishi', covered half of his face and muttered in a villain boss tone.

"Oh……"

Beside him, Rikka Takanashi had a strange look in her eyes. She felt that his behavior had an indescribable temperament that was very much to her taste.

According to Shiki's original plan, after confirming that Rikka Takanashi was not Eri Kashiwagi, he would have no contact with her. Even if the other party came close to him, he would ignore her directly.

But just now, the system that had pretended to be dead for a long time suddenly came online and released a new task.

It’s not quite right to call it a task; to be precise, a new mechanism has emerged.

[Detected a qualified slave]

【Little Bird Swimming Rikka】

[A-level subordinate]

[Subordinate Reward: When Rikka Takanashi becomes your subordinate, all skills of the corresponding vest will be increased by 1 level, and the second level will be increased by 1 level. This effect will be invalid after she gives up her subordinate status.]

[Additional rewards for becoming a tenant]

[Subordinate's current obedience: 57/100]

[Evaluation: If you don’t have a middle school mentality, you will be wasting your youth. The (the following is omitted)

Logically speaking, Siji's pseudonym 'Qiu Ling Wenping' has tens of thousands of subordinates, if not hundreds of thousands. However, these social elites who are at least graduates of 985 universities are not as good as a chuunibyou girl. Siji still feels this is ridiculous.

What exactly is the so-called 'eligible' condition in this system?

Come to think of it, the last time the description 'meets the conditions' appeared was during the time of Yamada Fairy, right?

At that time, Yamada Fairy seemed to be wearing a Lolita skirt, and her words and actions also had a bit of a chuunibyou feeling. Could it be that his system is a vest landlord system on the surface, but is actually a chuunibyou containment device?

Si Ji always felt like he had gotten a glimpse of the truth behind the system and didn't dare to think any further.

In any case, the reward of increasing all skills by 1 level is still very good. The only problem is that this thing is only effective for the current vest, which means that only the vest of Dongwei Kishihisa can enjoy this bonus.

The skill level of the vest is only shared with the main body, and will be discounted by 20% when shared with other vests.

This made the vest of Dongwei Kishihisa jump from the weakest among all the vests of the four seasons to the one with the strongest comprehensive skills.

'My writing and business levels have soared to level 9. I am almost invincible except when I fight myself. Having said that, I don't want to go down the path of a great writer and a big capitalist again.'

Si Ji checked his current status.

His painting skills had originally been upgraded to level 7, making him a relatively strong professional player. Although there were strong and weak players among level 7, he was not a match for the stronger Mashiro Shiina among level 7 when he first reached level 7. Especially in the areas of oil painting, the other party could easily suppress him with experience.

But now with the bonus of Rikka Takanashi, Shiki's painting skill has directly jumped to level 8, becoming a contemporary master＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

There is a huge difference between a player of this level and Mashiro Shiina, who is only at the 'genius' level and has not yet become a master.

And Shiki has another guess. According to the rules explored in the past, the painting skills of the pseudonym Fuyuo Kishihisa will reach the maximum level sooner or later. If the bonus of Rikka Takanashi is still effective at that time, can he break the human limit of level 10?

Just thinking about this makes Si Ji feel eager to try it out.

"What should we do next?" Perhaps because of Shiki's eagerness to try, Takanashi Rikka's tone was also full of energy: "Are we going to confront the Apostles of the Invisible Boundary directly?"

"I'm not sure what the invisible boundary you're talking about is, but in any heroic legend, isn't the first thing to do always to collect partners?"

Si Ji coughed lightly, and then he moved his palm slightly, and a map appeared in his empty hand.

This magical action made Rikka Takanashi subconsciously exclaim in amazement, and the obedience level in the list suddenly increased by 2 points, almost approaching the 60 mark.

The girl suddenly realized: "I understand, you are Cang Yin's magician, right!"

It turns out you haven't given up that title yet.

"Well, at least it's better than something that's not human." Shiki sighed and accepted the title. After all, it was Fuyuo Kishi who was embarrassed, and it had nothing to do with Washimiya Shiki: "Come to think of it, you haven't told me your name yet."

Although I knew it from the beginning, it would be better to introduce myself formally.

The girl probably understood what Si Ji meant. She nodded and spoke very seriously.

"I am the True Eye User of the Evil King. Hello, the magician of Cang Yin."

"..."

"Don't reveal your real name outside. Isn't this common sense for people from the other world?" the girl said seriously.

This surprised Si Ji: since he didn't tell the stranger his name directly, it seemed that the child was not stupid.

No, since his obedience is so high, I shouldn't be too wary of him. Could it be that this little idiot is serious?

Chapter 49: Surrender First

pound.

Inside the office of the Sigong Group, an expensive antique pot was smashed heavily to the ground with resentment, turning into a pile of worthless fragments.

"That's a teapot from the Northern Song Dynasty. It's a good thing."

Shigong Yan'an, who looked older than his actual age, glanced at the debris on the ground, then shifted his gaze to his son, the instigator, and said slowly: "What's the point of getting so angry now?"

"I had already prepared myself mentally to face Maple Leaf Technology and the attack from that madman Qiu Ling Wenping, but before he could even make a move, those dogs under our command actually bit us first!"

Sigong Huangguang's face was ferocious, and one could even see the throbbing blue veins on his bald head. It was obvious that he was very angry.

He said angrily: "Even those bastards from the Shijo family dared to start fighting with us! How dare they! "

"That's because you didn't hold the leash tightly, and they let go and ran away. If a dog is left in the wild for too long, it will turn into a wolf that comes here after smelling rotten food."

Seeing his son losing his composure, Shigong Yan'an became more and more disappointed in his heart, but the expression on his face was much calmer and steady.

"We can't go on like this, old man, give me some money," Sigong Huangguang said angrily, "We must teach those guys who dare to resist us a lesson, otherwise there will only be more and more of them!"

"At this point, how much money is left in the consortium's account that you can squander like this? Even if you spent a lot of money to kill one or two of them, so what? As long as Qiu Ling and Wen Ping give the order, these jackal-like guys will only increase in number," Sigong Yan'an sneered, "Once this siege continues for a period of time, our working capital will be exhausted, and we will have to cut flesh to maintain operations. Guess how many cuts it will take to cut the Sigong family's aorta?"

The Shinomiya family does not have the core competitiveness like Maple Leaf Technology's Ark Reactor - they can't even make Baymax - its ability to resist risks comes almost entirely from its huge size as a business complex.

In other words, once the business starts to be cut, the size of the Shinomiya Group will decline rapidly, and its ability to resist risks will also plummet. By then, as long as the other party makes a slight attack on its several projects that are its main source of revenue, the Shinomiya Family will almost be dead.

It was obvious that the consortiums from the Shijo family that suddenly began to besiege them saw this.

After all, once Maple Leaf Technology launches an offensive, the Shinomiya family will be forced to flee in panic, and it will be inevitable that they will have to cut off their own flesh and blood to survive.

The death of this giant will undoubtedly be a feast for all the forces involved in the siege.

"Then what should we do?" Sigong Huangguang asked with gritted teeth, "Can we just continue to take the beatings and not fight back like now?"

Ever since he came to power, he has always been praised by others and he has always been the one to beat others. He has never had such a frustrating experience.

He found it hard to swallow this.

Shigong Yan'an looked at him deeply and was disappointed to a certain extent with his eldest son.

The worst case scenario is that the Shinomiya family directly declares bankruptcy and dissolves, donating most of its assets to Maple Leaf Technology as compensation to appease the anger of that adult, and directly distributing the remaining assets to their descendants, which should allow them to live a life without worries about food and clothing.

But let alone Sigong Huangguang, even Sigong Yan'an himself would find it difficult to accept such an ending.

Therefore, self-rescue is necessary, but unlike Sigong Huangguang who has not realized what a big mistake he has made until now, Sigong Yan'an is very clear about the reason behind all this.

Maple Leaf Technologies, Qiu Lingwenping.

In fact, this crisis is not as dangerous as it seems. At least as long as my body can hold up after decades of ups and downs in the business world, I have a good chance of getting through this crisis - provided that I can reconcile with that adult.

As long as the other party shows goodwill towards the Shinomiya family again, this danger can be easily overcome. Even further, as long as the other party conveys their willingness to cooperate further, the Shinomiya family can not only easily overcome the crisis, but also surpass its previous heyday and create new glory.

So there is no doubt that the key point has not changed from beginning to end, that is Qiu Lingwenping's attitude.

Thinking of this, the old man looked at his eldest son, Sigong Huangguang, again.

The latter's irritable look made him feel annoyed again.

Letting this guy apologize to the other party... probably won't be of any use.

In Japan, a verbal apology is the least sincere and least meaningful act.

Bowing to apologize, or even kneeling or sitting down, is meaningless in itself.

Sigong Yan'an has reached his current position step by step. Countless people once crawled at his feet and begged him to show mercy, but they were eventually crushed by him and turned into part of the current Sigong Group. Even if they were in the same place, Sigong Yan'an didn't think Qiu Ling Wenping would let go of the best target like the Sigong Group so easily.

"But it's not like there's no one we can refer to."

Someone had offended Qiu Ling Wenping before, but the other party was not completely crushed into mud. Instead, he managed to keep on breathing and survive.

"Old man, are you talking about..." Shigong Huangguang scratched his bald head, as if he had thought of something: "The Yukinoshita family?"

"It's not that stupid." Sigong Yan'an picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

"I understand. As a victim of Qiu Ling Wenping, you have to join forces with the Yukinoshita family to launch a counterattack, right?" Shigong Huangguang continued, "But the Yukinoshita family was originally just a small family, and now they are not much different from those untouchables..."

The flying teacup interrupted his words.

Shigong Yan'an's face was distorted, and he looked at his stupid son with a look of disappointment, as if he had a stomachache.

Ever since he started to take care of his body, he rarely roared: "What are you still thinking about! I'm telling you here, Sigong Huangguang, from now on, throw your ridiculous confrontational mentality into the Mariana Trench, and never think of doing anything to Qiu Ling and Wen Ping again, otherwise it won't just be the consortium that will disappear!"

"oh oh……"

Sigong Huangguang, who had never seen his father so angry, shrank his neck and finally realized that the methods he used to be good at directly solving problems for those who raised questions seemed to be no longer effective.

"So what should we do?" he asked with his head lowered.

"Didn't that guy accept the 'compensation' from the Yukinoshita family, so he let the Yukinoshita family go?" Shinomiya Yan'an finally calmed down, with an ambiguous expression on his face: "Don't we Shinomiya family just happen to have a 'compensation gift' as well?"

Chapter 50: Sacrifices and Burial Objects

Shinomiya Kaguya fell into depression.

There is nothing more painful than gaining freedom and then losing it again.

As a child who was not valued by Shinomiya Yan'an, Shinomiya Kaguya's future path was almost already determined - she was labeled as a member of the Shinomiya family and was used as a witness to some kind of exchange of interests to form alliances with other families.
