His eyes gradually became empty, and the old man seemed to have thought of something, muttering: "As long as we are still alive, everything is still in time."
The old man, who was over a hundred years old, looked so vicissitudes of life at this moment. He thought of his absurd life.
Friendship and family affection are unfamiliar things to Uesugi Yue, but his attachment to his mother has continued for so many years. However, his mother has been buried in an ownerless grave outside Nanjing and will never hear his confession again.
They were all people who were deceived and did wrong things, but Yuan Zhisheng was luckier than him because he still had a chance to make up for it.
"I can feel that the girl is a soft-hearted child, so as long as she sees your sincerity, she should forgive you."
Yuan Zhisheng's dull eyes suddenly lit up. He looked straight at the old man in front of him and subconsciously asked, "Really?"
"Well, don't be too sad. As a man, you should take responsibility for your mistakes and admit them with dignity. There is no difficulty that cannot be solved."
Uesugi Yue reached out and rubbed the boy's head. Just like what Gen Chisei had fantasized about countless times when he was a child, he couldn't help but be stunned, staring blankly at the old man in front of him.
But the old man just handed him a document.
"I have been sorting out the eight families of Sheqi these days and found some interesting things. Many years ago, Tachibana Masamune bought a private plastic surgery clinic. For so many years, it has been hidden in a remote countryside and rarely receives customers."
"And I received news that someone will be getting another plastic surgery soon. He is a very ordinary and cautious man. It took me a lot of effort to find out about him. He is not one of those Kagemusha who were killed, but his real body."
Looking at the boy's dazed look, Uesugi Yue showed a helpless smile: "I was originally planning to meet this doctor in person. He has messed up Japan and bullied my child."
"But I think you may need to ask for an explanation."
Chapter 61 It's your turn to be punished, Doctor
"Zhisheng, do you want to go meet him?"
Yuan Zhisheng stared blankly at the kind old man in front of him, unable to recover for a long time. He had received too much news in just these few days, and in fact, he was still in a daze.
The faith that he had grown up with collapsed. The justice that he had always believed in was actually a sham. He was manipulated by others and even hurt his most important relatives with his own hands.
Yuan Zhisheng's emotions have actually been on the verge of collapse these days, and regret and guilt are almost drowning him.
But he never thought that the person who caused all this was not actually dead, and was hiding in some corner of the countryside, preparing to make a comeback.
Recalling the time when Tachibana Masamune was hacked to death by Minamoto no Chijo, his pain was like a joke. He was like a funny clown, being fooled from beginning to end.
Overwhelmed with hatred, the boy's eyes were red and bloodshot, and his voice became hoarse due to excessive emotion.
"Isn't he dead?"
"When the young girl killed the general, he realized the danger. At that time, Tachibana Masamune was also a stand-in. This man was very vigilant."
His nails dug into his palms, the pain stimulating his emotions. The boy nodded slowly and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Okay, I'll go see him."
"Do you need me to accompany you?" Uesugi Yue asked him.
"No, I will bring him back. This is my responsibility."
The boy spoke softly, and at this moment his eyes were so determined, like a warrior holding a sword tightly, ready to go to the battlefield at any time.
Uesugi Yue nodded with satisfaction: "That's good, I just happen to be going to find an old friend to reminisce about the past."
"If you take advantage of someone's misfortune, you must give an explanation. If your child is bullied, the father must also seek justice."
At this moment, the kind old man has changed. Although his face is still the same, he looks as if he is standing on the top of a mountain from a distance.
Yuan Zhisheng looked at him silently, and the haze that had been covering his heart since the accident suddenly dissipated.
In fact, he really doesn't like being involved in the underworld. Compared to this boring position of young master, he would rather go to France to sell sunscreen.
But Tachibana Masamune always put the family's pressure on him, and kept telling him that he was old and the future of the entire Japanese underworld depended on him. Gen Chisei was really tired.
But now that this old man appeared, all the heavy burdens seemed to have left him. It turned out that those things that suffocated and exhausted him were just shackles imposed on him by Tachibana Masamune, and he ridiculously thought that it was the price that had to be paid for justice.
The old man was not tall and was even a little thin, but just standing there quietly made people feel extremely at ease, as if as long as he was still there, he could find a way to solve the problem even if the earth was about to explode in the next second.
All you have to do is do your own thing. Any trouble you cause will be resolved by someone else, with someone to support you and to cover for you. You will be free and unrestrained.
Yuan Zhisheng had been without a father since he was a child. He had imagined countless times what his father looked like, but he never had a real sense of it until this old man appeared, and then these two words became completely concrete.
Yuan Zhisheng bowed deeply to the old man, turned and left. At this time, the face of this somewhat feminine handsome man was as cold as steel. He finally stopped escaping and chose to face all the pain instead.
Because he knew that from this moment on, he would no longer fight alone.
The pitch-black car passed through the bustling Shinjuku district, drove through the chaotic town, and finally came to a rather desolate village on the edge of the city.
It seems that there are not many people living here. The young people have gone to big cities to work, and only a few equally old people are left in this dilapidated and old village.
And the plastic surgery clinic was hidden here. Herzog was a very cautious guy. No one knew how Uesugi Yue found this place and how much he paid, but he finally found the doctor by following the clues.
Gen Chisei was wearing a pitch-black windbreaker, with the Spider-Kri and Doji-Kri given to him by Tachibana Masamune himself tucked into his waist. He walked step by step on the shabby street, as if he had returned to that small town many years ago.
At that time, Tachibana Masamune personally took him away when he was young. Now that he has grown up, he comes to see him off as an old man.
A slight breeze blew from somewhere, and the leaves in the distance rustled. Yuan Zhisheng finally stopped outside the dilapidated wooden door.
A faint smell of blood could be smelled in the house. Yuan Zhisheng gently pushed open the creaking wooden door. The whole room was dark, like another world.
In the darkest part of this world, he saw a man in a white kimono. The man was holding a scalpel and carving on a model. A brand new face could be vaguely seen on the model.
He seemed to be designing new facial features for himself.
Hearing the noise, the man turned around and was obviously stunned when he saw Yuan Zhisheng. A trace of panic flashed across Yuan Zhisheng's very familiar and kind face.
But he soon calmed down and smiled at Yuan Zhisheng, a kind and caring smile, just like he had countless times before.
He said to Yuan Zhisheng: "Zhisheng, you are back."
For a moment, Yuan Zhisheng almost thought he had returned to the past.
Every time Yuan Zhisheng went out on a mission, no matter how late he came back, this man would wait for him and say these words to him.
It seemed as if nothing had changed. The man was still so kind and still cared about him so much. They were the closest father and son.
"Should I call you General Wang or Dad?" Yuan Zhisheng looked at the man and said softly, "Dr. Herzog, aren't you going to give me an explanation?"
"Actually, I don't want to do this..." The man sighed deeply, seeming to be extremely regretful, but at this moment, he suddenly reached into his pocket.
But before he could take out the pair of clappers, a sharp knife flashed, and the next moment the two severed hands rolled to the ground, with blood flying like blooming fireworks.
"what!"
The accident happened too suddenly. Herzog's face became distorted in an instant. The pain made him scream wildly, but Yuan Zhisheng just watched it all indifferently.
Gently waving the knife in his hand, Yuan Zhisheng had no expression on his face, and with every swing, there was an additional hideous wound on Herzog's body.
This is indeed a fine ancient sword, and it is also the first gift this man gave him. It is the best choice to use it for funeral.
"Over the years, you are the person I trust the most."
"I remember every one of the principles you told me. You said that a responsible man must uphold justice, but you never told me that the justice you asked me to uphold does not exist at all."
With one knife after another, the man's body was covered with wounds and blood. He rolled around in a pool of blood in pain. The face that Zhang Yuanzhi, who he had trusted so much, was now distorted and distorted like a monster, and his hoarse screams were heard incessantly.
But Yuan Zhisheng just kept swinging the knife. There was no expression on the pale boy's face. The blood splattered on his body, making him look like a cruel executioner carrying out executions in hell.
"You always tell me that people who make mistakes must be punished and pay the price."
"You made me make a mistake, and I paid the price and was punished."
"Now it is your turn."
Chapter 62: Eri loves her sister the most
Amidst the crazy screams, Yuan Zhisheng raised the knife in his hand high. The veins on the back of his hand bulged and his eyes were red as he looked at the distorted familiar face.
Finally, he swung his sword heavily, and a head rolled down with a lot of blood splattered. The horrifying sound stopped abruptly, and the face that Yuan Zhisheng once trusted the most and was the closest to, was finally frozen in a hideous and distorted expression.
The boy's face was pale and his hands were shaking, but he still slowly and firmly picked up the bloody head from the ground and put it into the wooden box.
The decades-long conspiracy of Dr. Dragon finally came to an end at this moment, but no one applauded for what should have been the most exciting ending of the story. Only the bleak sound of the wind blowing through the streets remained.
Yuan Zhisheng pushed open the gate and walked out. He was covered in blood and holding a wooden box dripping with blood in his hand. He looked like a horrible demon crawling out of hell.
But he looked so tired, as if he would collapse at any moment.
More than a decade of deception, the collapse of faith since childhood, and the personal execution of the man who was like a father to him, each of these things was too heavy for him to bear, so heavy that he didn't want to think about anything now and just wanted to have a good sleep.
At the end of the long, empty and dilapidated street, Ying and Crow Yasha stood there, looking rather nervous and anxious.
But after seeing Yuan Zhisheng's appearance, they said nothing in the end and just followed him silently.
As Minamoto Chisei's retainers, they are Minamoto Chisei's most trusted confidants, and are also the ones who have been with Minamoto Chisei day and night, sharing life and death with him for so many years.
So they were keenly aware of Yuan Zhisheng's sadness at the moment. No one spoke, but just accompanied him in silence.
Yuan Zhisheng handed the wooden box to Ying and said softly, "Give it to Sakurai Kogure. She knows how to deal with it."
Seeing this, Crow couldn't help but say, "Boss, why don't you deliver it yourself? Giving gifts in person shows sincerity, and you can also meet the girl by the way."
Yuan Zhisheng shook his head tiredly: "She won't want to see me. I don't want to make her angry again."
Crow wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Ying's stern look. The few of them fell silent again. The atmosphere became very depressing for a moment. The only sound on the entire long street was the bleak sound of wind and rain.
At this time, Genjiro was competing with Eri.
The injuries caused by this trial were different from any previous ones. Recovery was particularly slow, and ordinary medicines were completely ineffective. Genji now relied entirely on her own recovery ability.
Eri didn't know whether she was feeling guilty or because she had finally found a playmate to play with, she was particularly clingy. She would follow Gen Chinu wherever she went and even sleep with her, like a little tail that couldn't be shaken off.
It’s actually nothing. Although Eri is clingy, she is very well behaved and a very likable little girl.
But when she needed serum treatment, she stuck to Yuan Zhinv and refused to go, which was a big problem.
After all, it was due to artificial breeding. Although Eri's bloodline is the strongest, it is also the most dangerous. None of the three siblings who came out of Black Swan Harbor is complete, all of them are incomplete.
Now, Genjitsu has safely improved her bloodline with the help of a simulator and gotten rid of her defect. Genjitsu is too defective and his words are not dangerous enough, so he is safe instead. Only Eri's problem has not been solved yet.
If she leaves the serum, she will become Deadpool in no time.
But all this was obviously inexplicable to Eri. No matter how hard Uesugi tried to persuade her, the girl still hid behind Genjitsu, with her head down and a stubborn and rebellious look on her face, as if she was refusing to listen.
Eri is the youngest among the group, and due to her upbringing, her mental age is also relatively young. Uesugi Yue has no idea how to communicate with such a girl, and his face is full of the helplessness of an old father.
I don’t know why, but today the old father had a big bruise on his face, as if he had been in a fight and didn’t seem to have gained any advantage.
However, he seemed unwilling to talk about it too much, and his mind was on the girl in front of him.
Genji sighed, grabbed Eri who was hiding behind her, and asked her in a very soft but serious voice: "Tell me, why doesn't Eri want to go for treatment?"
Eiry lowered her head and said nothing. Gen Chinu was not in a hurry either. She just waited quietly. It was not until a long time later that Eiry handed over the little notebook with a dejected look.
There was only one word on the notebook: pain.
When they saw this word, Uesugi Yue and Minamoto Chitose were both stunned.
They actually didn't know what serum treatment was, and had never seen it. Eri was too dangerous, and it was hard to guarantee when she would suddenly feel that someone no longer needed to exist. Killing was too easy for her, so every treatment would be isolated.
But no one would remain unmoved when seeing the girl's sad and lost look.
Yuan Zhinv said earnestly: "You can't go without treatment. I will go with you."
Eri became visibly more frustrated after hearing the first half of the sentence, but her eyes lit up again after hearing the second half.
Uesugi Yue frowned and disagreed: "I'll go with her, your injury is not healed yet."
Genjitsu just took Eri's hand. The girl's hands were slender and soft, and her eyes lit up like stars.
In the end, it was Uesugi Yue and Minamoto Chijo who sent Eri there together. The entire medical room was covered by a huge quartz glass. This defense was comparable to a bank vault. The entire ward was filled with only empty white and the ticking sound of instruments, like a man-eating beast.
Eri was lying alone on the examination bed. She was the only color in the entire white ward. The dark red blood was drawn from her body, filtered once, and then transfused back into her body together with the serum extracted from Deadpool's fetus.
The whole process was long and delicate. Eri's face became paler and paler. She lay alone on the pure white bed, as if she had been abandoned by the world.
Gen Chinu pushed open the heavy quartz glass door. The medical staff hiding in the distance and monitoring subconsciously wanted to stop her, but was interrupted by Uesugi Yue waving his hand.
Gen Chinu walked step by step to the bedside, reached out and held the girl's cold hand, and Eri smiled at her happily.
Yuan Zhinu looked at the pale and weak girl in front of her, and felt uncomfortable.
Eri's bloodline is too strong, and she cannot control it, so she can only keep using serum for treatment and live in a cage forever.
Once she leaves this cage, she will die.
