"Wait a minute." Ikegana stood up and hurried to his room. After a while, he took out some white paper for drawing pictures, sat down at the table, took out a pen and started drawing.
Chi Feichi understood what Chi Janai meant, took a piece of white paper and left the living room, also found a pen, and began to draw the photos in his memory.
More than ten minutes later, Chi Feichi entered the kitchen.
The two pieces of manuscript paper were placed side by side on the table and compared.
The lengths of each of the random wooden strips nailed to the back of the curtains are exactly the same, and the styles of desks and chairs against the wall next to the curtains are also exactly the same!
The only difference is that there is a man in a black robe on the manuscript paper drawn by Chi Feichi, standing next to the desk, stretching out a hand to pull the edge of the black robe, looking up at the camera, revealing hands full of scars. , face, neck, eyes calm and gloomy.
When it comes to painting, he is not a professional, but he understands the distribution of human bones and muscles. He has seen some paintings in his life, and he is not handicapped, so he can restore the general situation.
Chi Fei has never been to the castle where Chi Kanai lived when he was a child. The two pictures are exactly the same, and it can be basically concluded that the photo was indeed taken in the castle!
"This was when he was 15 years old...not long after the second brother died..." Chi Janai murmured in a low voice, pointing to the black box on the chair above Chi Feichi's painting, and looked up at Chi Feichi, determined He said, "In the iron box are your second uncle's relics! He kept them in his room for a month before receiving them elsewhere..."
Chi Fei saw Chi Jana's eyes full of disbelief, "This photo..."
Ikegana calmed down the surprise in his heart, but still frowned and said slowly, "This photo should have been taken two years before he became bedridden. Looking at the angle, it was in his room and near the bed. In the corridor, the other person is inside, and he is near the door. But except for when he was bedridden at the end, the fourth brother would not allow anyone to go to his room except for us brothers and sisters. By then, the second brother should have passed away. No, there is no camera at home, and neither my third brother nor I have taken any photos. Even if he faces us, he will not show his hands, feet and face casually. Others cannot see it, let alone take pictures..."
"He is facing the camera," Chi Feichi added, "This is not a candid shot. His expression... Although there are many injuries and wrinkles on his face, I can confirm that judging from the photos, he is very calm and calm."
The person in the photo did not deliberately stretch out his hand to let people take a picture of the injury on the back of his hand. He just raised his hand to pull the edge of the black robe and was photographed together. He was not specifically posing to take pictures of the injury. His posture was calm and his expression was calm.
It shows that this was not secretly photographed.
But based on what his mother said about his fourth uncle's character, he shouldn't let people run into his room and take this photo.
In the kitchen, both mother and son were silent.
This is a photo that shouldn't exist.
"despair!"
The water in the kettle boils and the indicator light goes out.
Chi Feichi got up and went to make tea, "Could it be a doctor or something?"
"No, even if it is a doctor, he will not allow the other party to take pictures," Ikegana recalled, "And at that time, we would go to regular hospitals or home investment institutes for physical examinations, and doctors would not appear at home. , only the housekeeper and servants move around the house, not even the driver or gardener can enter the house, and he has always avoided those people."
Chi Feichi poured the hot water and thought for a while, "The person he likes?"
Chi Janai was startled by Chi Feichi's idea. After thinking about it carefully, it was not impossible, but...
"At that time, he didn't seem to have anyone he liked...but I'm not sure, because he is often elusive and likes to hide in dark places. I can't always find him or follow him, so maybe it's a certain woman. A servant, maybe a male servant..."
Hardcore×3!
Chi Feichi was startled, "Is there something wrong with his sexual orientation?"
"I don't know, so I don't rule out this possibility," Ikegana said seriously, "He almost doesn't talk, we don't have much communication, and I don't know what he likes."
Chi Feichi: "..."
Don't you rule out this possibility?
It made sense, but he couldn't refute it.
"However, if it's someone you like, he shouldn't show his appearance..." Ikegana frowned.
Chi Feichi poured two cups of tea and brought them to the table, "With his character?"
"He should be very concerned about this," Ikegana recalled, "but sometimes he doesn't seem to care so much. Unless there is sunlight penetrating into the room, he will not wear gloves, and when he needs to reach out, he will not deliberately Cover the marks on your hands..."
"Could that be a photo taken by my grandmother or grandfather?" Chi Feichi asked.
"No," Ikegana said firmly, "Your grandmother and grandfather know that he doesn't like to show his face or take pictures, so they won't help him take pictures."
"What if there is an important purpose?" Chi Feichi asked again, "It must be taken, for souvenirs, family albums, or...for some other reason, a photo needs to be taken."
Ikegana pondered, without making a conclusion.
Is this possible?
"But his attitude is wrong." Chi Feichi denied this conjecture himself. "The way he looks in the photo doesn't look like he is facing his parents."
In that photo, his fourth uncle was too casual. The action of pulling up the edge of the black robe was so casual that he didn't look like he was facing his parents, but rather a peer or someone else with whom he had a good relationship. The photo didn't seem to be taken for anyone to see. Just a daily joke or a random photo.
Ikegana frowned and thought for a while, "I really can't think of anyone who can take such a photo. There shouldn't be such a person..."
"You said before that my grandmother sought out doctors, researchers, and the like to try to solve genetic diseases," Chi Feichi asked again, "When did it start? Why did it end suddenly?"
"It started before I was born. Your grandmother invested in many research institutes, hospitals, and pharmaceutical factories," Ikegana recalled. "Your second uncle started to have trouble synthesizing melanin in his body when he was about seven years old. It lasted almost a year. Later, your third uncle became blind. It was probably during that time that your grandmother discovered the genetic disease and started investing. Well... specifically... it was probably between 1950 and 1951."
Chi Feichi thought for a while, "Could visual impairment and blindness be the cause of albinism?"
"Perhaps, but I'm not very clear about the results of the research back then," Ikegana frowned. "When I was 10 years old, because all my brothers died, the experiment was terminated."
Chi Feichi stretched out his hand and looked at it, "Is grandma a mixed race?"
Chikana thought about it for a moment, "She doesn't like to mention the past, but once she met a mixed-race wealthy businessman, she said that she was also mixed-race..."
When Chi Fei saw that the curry, potatoes and chicken were almost simmered, he stood up to serve the rice. While eating, he continued to understand the situation with Ike Kana.
His and Ikekana's skin color is paler than that of his father or others. It may be due to genetic disease or mixed blood.
However, as the members of the Field family grow up, certain enzymes in their bodies will slowly and randomly disappear in random and irregular ways, which may be related to albinism. What's interesting is that Ikekana doesn't know as much as that one does.
Probably because Ikekana was still young at that time and wasn't told much.
Around 1950 and 1951, his maternal grandmother invested in medical, biological, and pharmaceutical research.
In 1951, at the age of 99, Renya Karasuma announced his death.
This timing is very delicate. Is it possible that the two parties met at that time?
At that time, his eldest uncle had passed away. Even if he had not died, he was still a 13-year-old child. His second uncle was 8 years old, his third uncle was 5 years old, and his fourth uncle was 2 years old. His mother was not born. The only one who knew the answer was probably his grandfather. He was married to his maternal grandmother, but his maternal grandfather passed away when he was two years old, and his maternal grandmother also passed away not long after.
I want to know something now, but I have nowhere to ask.
Ikeana said that because his uncles died one after another, she had no problems and the research was stopped in 1967.
Mysteries abound.
The research that lasted for sixteen years really made no progress at all?
Did his grandmother really give up on research?
Does Field have any partners when investing in research? Is it related to that person?
Could it be that some researcher told that person what happened in his family?
Also, who was the person who allowed his fourth uncle to take that photo?
His grandmother obviously knew who her parents were and her life story, so why didn't she tell her little daughter? And why are you searching everywhere for people with purple eyes to determine if they are related?
His grandmother...what was she looking for?
His maternal grandmother was brought back from Japan for adoption by the old baron when she was more than ten years old. Before that, where was his maternal grandmother from? Who are your parents?
He didn't even know whether the genetic disease was caused by a congenital genetic defect or an acquired genetic mutation.
While Chi Feichi was eating, he listened to Chi Janai's words and sorted out his thoughts.
That person was trying to control him using genetic means. That method could indeed affect his emotions. Could it be that some of the information left behind when studying genetic diseases made that person see what possibilities there were?
The control methods were extended based on the research on genetic diseases. In addition, that person also needed his blood and physical examination reports to do something.
That person has always believed that something was wrong with him, and after discovering that there were many antibodies in his blood, he has been studying...
The purpose of the organization is to 'reverse the flow of time', and the purpose of the Field family is to cure genetic diseases. The two seem to be unrelated, but they both involve biology, the human body, and medicine. Plus that person's understanding of the Field family, both parties may It really has something to do with it.
"...After you were born, I also wanted to invest in one or two research institutes dedicated to studying genetic diseases," Ikegana said, "But at that time, your physical examination report showed that you were very healthy, and so did I. In terms of medicine, How can we study the disease when experts say there is no disease at all? Just like back then, every child was healthy when he was born, but problems will slowly appear..."
"Don't worry, I don't have any problems so far," Chi Feichi said with relief, and then said, "Don't think too much about what we talked about today, don't check it, and don't talk about it outside, just pretend you don't know anything, everything Leave it to me, I have my own plan, and if I have an answer, I will tell you."
Chikana hesitated for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Okay..."
