"Tokyo, long time no see."
It has indeed been a long time. If you calculate carefully, the last time Gu Bei went to Japan was two hundred chapters ago (crossed out)... The last time he went to Tokyo was probably two years ago.
Genji Heavy Industries, the non-existent "ξ" layer.
Since Eri got permission to go out, this floor has been transformed into a semi-open format, making it easier for Eri to go out at any time.
Although people without permission are still not allowed to come in and out at will, the young masters of Gu Bei and She Qiba's family will naturally not be stopped.
It is worth mentioning that because of Gu Bei’s reminder, the young master also realized the internal problems of the Sheqiba family. In the past two years, he has caught many monsters who planted nails in the Sheqiba family, but it is hard to say. It must be cleaned up.
Thanks to this, Minamoto Tatsuo does not dare to let some people who were originally trustworthy enter Eri Yi's room at will. Now those who can enter and exit Eri Yi's floor are all Minamoto Tatsuo's close associates, similar to Mabuki Sakura. Zuo Bolongji, and Kannazuki Hanzo... are actually Yasha.
Yuan Zhisheng poured a cup of tea for Gu Bei.
As the young master of the Snake Qihachi family, Minamoto Zhisheng was not only good at killing people, he was also very perfect in dealing with people. His skill in tea ceremony would have rivaled Sen Rikyu's a few hundred years ago.
(Sen no Rikyu, the pinnacle of Japanese tea ceremony, is similar to Lu Yu in China.)
But Gu Bei doesn't understand tea. He only knows how to drink it, like a cow chewing peonies.
Eriyi sat next to him, imitating his example.
The corner of Yuan Zhisheng's mouth twitched, looking at Eli Yi who was following Gu Bei's example, not at all as gentle and quiet as usual.
But he also knew it was a good thing.
Although Eriki's personality has become somewhat more open since she left, she still seems to be timid, like a fragile rag doll.
Yuan Zhisheng understood that years of isolation had made this girl too unfamiliar with the world. Every attempt and every contact with the world required her to muster great courage.
As an elder brother, she couldn't help her, because in Eriki's view, her elder brother was the one who made the decision, and the orders he gave must be completed without thinking about why.
To a certain extent, this is still a constraint on Eri Yi, which is detrimental to her growth.
However, Gu Bei's behavior will not make Eriki feel "obedient". She is curious about Gu Bei and feels close to him, so she will subconsciously learn from Gu Bei's behavior.
Although he felt very unhappy inside, Minamoto Zhisheng still resisted and did not pull Eriki to his side.
"Huh? Uncle, your skills are pretty good."
"Kacha—"
The tea cup in his hand broke, and Yuan Zhisheng felt that his sanity was about to break. Although he knew that the relationship between the two was abnormal, he did not expect that it would progress to this extent.
'You can't be angry, you can't take action, Eli Yi is still watching. '
Facing Eriki's curious eyes, Minamoto Zhisheng suppressed his anger and changed the subject: "Why do you want to come to Tokyo at this time?"
"Isn't this a rush to celebrate Eri's birthday?"
Gu Bei laughed loudly and suddenly slapped his forehead: "Oh, I almost forgot, you two brothers and sisters have the same birthday, big... happy birthday, Brother Yuan."
Gu Bei originally thought of teasing Yuan Zhisheng and calling him "uncle" twice. After all, seeing the young master of the Sheqiba family was so angry that he couldn't let it out, not to mention how interesting it was.
But as soon as these three words came to his lips, Gu Bei saw a light flashing from Yuan Zhisheng's waist.
Fuck, just for fun, there is no need to pull out the boy and cut it! ?
It’s not that he can’t be beaten, the main reason is that Gu Bei thinks that people should be cowardly. Eriyi won’t care if he beats his future uncle in front of his future wife, but will Yuan Zhisheng be able to beat Eriyi in the future? It's really hard to say if it's in his hands.
He quickly changed his words: "Brother Yuan was so spectacular last night."
Gu Bei was talking about last night's birthday party, which happened to happen when he entered She Qiba's house.
It was originally purchased for Eri Yi and Yuan Zhisheng, but more celebrities from the industry came, including big figures from both political and business circles. As for the black...
Stop making trouble, aren't the Sheqiba family the biggest evil?
This banquet was initially to celebrate the birthdays of the young master and Tsukiyomi Mikoto. It was also used as an opportunity to force Minamoto to imprison Eriki again. After all, Eriki's bloodline has been on the rise recently. Although Snake The Qihachi family is of the same spirit, but the family heads are not related to Tsukuyomi, and they have family righteousness before them, so naturally they will not pity this little girl.
In other words, it is said that there are two protagonists of the banquet, but in fact the focus is on Eriki.
However, Eriyi did not return home late at night, which became an excuse for them to re-seal the sharp knife.
The heads of the Sheqiba family almost asked Yuan Zhisheng to call Eli Yi back, and they almost forced Yuan Zhisheng to have a baby. However, before Eli Yi could notify her, Gu Bei arrived first.
Gu Bei doesn't care whether you are Fuma Kotaro or Miyamoto Musashi. He went through so much trouble to let the little girl out, and you guys want to lock her up right now.
He was not as easy to talk to as Yuan Zhisheng. He convinced these big men with "virtue" three times, five and two times, and then found Yuan Zhisheng and asked about the whereabouts of Eri Yi.

Hearing that Eri Yi was not at home, Gu Bei asked Yuan Zhisheng if he knew the location of Eri Yi. Then Yuan Zhisheng got the news from the crow that Eri Yi was about to go to the Skytree. Only then could Gu Bei be on the twelve I met Eri before clicking.
Needless to say, Gu Bei's trip was really coincidental. It coincided with the time when Eli Yi's bloodline was recovering. If it hadn't been for him, this little girl would have been locked in a cage again.
Gu Bei did indeed do something good this time, which made Yuan Zhi breathe a sigh of relief. Otherwise, Tongziqie would have choked when he called his first uncle just now.
The "unlimited scenery" mentioned by Gu Bei actually has two meanings. One is that Yuan Zhisheng is the young master of the eight snake families, and his birthday is like a United Nations meeting; the other is that Yuan Zhisheng is a snake. The young master of the Qiba family was roasted on the fire. If Gu Bei hadn't appeared, he might have really had to choose between his family and his blood relatives last night.
Of course Yuan Zhisheng understood what Gu Bei said.
"It's just a helpless move...don't blame them, they are doing it for the family."
When he said this, although Yuan Zhisheng was answering Gu Bei, his eyes were looking at Eri Yi. He was actually talking to Eri Yi.
It's a pity that even after being released for nearly two years, even after seeing the world with her own eyes, Eriyi still couldn't be as clever as Yuan Zhisheng and Gu Bei.
"I don't care about the internal affairs of your family. When you go back, remember to tell them not to make plans for Eri, otherwise I don't mind being a Susano'o for once...Forget it, Susano'o is a bit cheap. , it should still be Dayu."
The Snake Qi Eight Family symbolizes the Yamata no Orochi.
Suzuo's man beheaded the eight-headed Yamata no Orochi.
Dayu killed Xiang Liu with nine heads.
Gu Bei's threat was quite serious, that is to say, he and Eri Yi were tied together. If anyone else dared to utter arrogant words in front of Yuan Zhisheng, he might not really be the one who swallowed the boy under the knife of a boy.
But the person who said this was Gu Bei...
Yuan Zhisheng nodded and said no more.
To be honest, he thought this trick was very effective. Judging from Gu Bei's fighting ability last night, after these words were released, no one would dare to animate Li Yi.
But the problem is that the person who has been lurking in Snake Qibachi's house and wants to do something to Eriki has not been found out yet. Originally, it was okay that Gu Bei's existence was not exposed in Snake Qibachi's house, but since last night After that incident, I'm afraid Gu Bei's presence cannot be concealed. If that person is wary of Gu Bei, it will be even harder to catch him.
But this is all a matter later. The top priority right now is to get the masters to give up the idea of imprisoning Eri Yi again. Gu Bei's arrival is an opportunity.
Yuan Zhisheng was thoughtful, but Gu Bei didn't let him make a plan here. He interrupted Yuan Zhisheng's thinking and said, "Actually, I came here for business."
"What's up?"
"You remember the person I asked you to find before, right?"
"You mean Herzog?"
Yuan Zhisheng came to his senses: "I have been looking for him, but you only gave me a name and no other news. There is no progress at all on my side."
"It's okay, there's no need to look for him anymore," Gu Bei shook his head, "I already remembered who he is."
Gu Bei looked at Eri Yi: "Eri Yi, let's go play games first. Your brother and I have something to discuss."
"Okay." Eriyi nodded and skipped away.
Seeing Eliyi rushing into the room, Gu Bei withdrew his gaze and looked at Yuan Zhisheng seriously: "Before we talk about business, I have something to ask you."
Gu Bei, who always had a playful smile, showed this expression, and Yuan Zhisheng also became serious: "You can ask."
Gu Bei's eyes were blazing: "Some time ago, I arranged for a person to come to Tokyo to investigate some matters and asked you to fully cooperate. This person was later wanted by the Sheqiba Family... Can you tell me why?"
Yuan Zhisheng nodded: "There is indeed such a thing. In that case, I have to ask you first... Why did you send someone to crack Kaguya's system and search for the secrets of the Snake Qiba family?"
"Wait, when will I..."
"It's the woman named Mai Shutori you sent," Minamoto's eyes were like knives, "she took a lot of information from Princess Kaguya, including the secrets of the Snake Qihachi family!"
"This is wrong!"
Gu Bei frowned: "I asked her to investigate Eri's life experience. How did she get involved with the Snake Qihachi family...wait a minute!"
"Eri's life experience...is the secret of the Snake Qihachi family?"
Gu Bei looked at Yuan Zhisheng, looking for an answer.
Minamoto shook his head: "In the entire family, only the head of the family and the future head of the family will become confidential entities who need to hide information. Eriri was indeed a secret when she was Tsukuyomi, but after the threat was eliminated, the information The confidentiality has been lowered one level, and it is the same level as several family heads."
Gu Bei calculated: "In other words, Eryi's life experience may be related to you and your parents?"
Yuan Zhisheng nodded: "Eriyi and I are both orphans. We were both picked up by our parents. That's why Eriyi calls me brother. Of course, the two of us are not related by blood."
Gu Bei looked at Yuan Zhisheng with a strange look: "You and Eriki...are both orphans? Were they both picked up by parents?"
Yuan Zhisheng nodded.
"No blood relationship...are you sure?"
Yuan Zhisheng spread his hands: "What's so uncertain about this? I only have one... Forget it, let's not talk about that. Let's go back to Eri Yi. There is no test for blood relationship, but there should be no. After all, it was the first time I met her. When I got to Eri, she was only two or three years old. She was a child brought back from the orphanage by her father. It was considered a formal adoption relationship. And I followed my father into the Snake Qihachi family very early. Before that, I They all lived in the small town of Shikatori. Dad didn't adopt me, he just raised me, so I called him Dad."
"In short, if we hadn't been taken in by my father, then Eri and I would probably never know each other in our lives. How could we be related by blood?"
Gu Bei scratched his hair, and his eyes became complicated: "In other words, it's not absolutely impossible... This patriarch is very suspicious... If you and Eryi are really like that..."
"What's wrong, what are you talking about?"
Yuan Zhisheng felt flustered for no reason, and his uneasiness began to take root and sprout like a watered seed.
"You need to be mentally prepared first." Gu Bei looked at him, a light flashed in his hand, and a stack of documents appeared.
He put the document on the table and pushed it to Gen Zhisheng: "I discovered this when I was investigating Eriki's life experience."
When Yuan Zhisheng picked up the document, what he saw was not the style, but a photo clipped on the first page of the document.
It was a black and white photo with a sense of age. It was a woman, a red-haired woman.
A woman who is 90% similar to Erashi.
"Charlotte Chen, Eriki's grandmother, is a hybrid of the Chinese Chen family and the French Francis family. As for her husband, he is Hideo Uesugi, the young master of the Uesugi family from the previous generation."
Gu Bei looked at Minamoto Zhisheng and said in a solemn tone: "Charlotte Chen and Hideo Uesugi gave birth to the previous generation of Shadow King and the last head of the Eight Snake Qi Family - Uesugi Koshi. However, according to the records, Uesugi Koshi There was no heir, and until he disappeared, none of the women given to him by the family could become pregnant... This is the internal information of the Sheqiba family, and you should know it better than me."
Yuan Zhisheng nodded.
Gu Bei continued: "It doesn't matter. Just because there are no heirs on the surface, it doesn't mean there are no heirs secretly. In addition to the regular channels, Mai Shutoku found other interesting things."
Gu Bei motioned Yuan Zhisheng to turn to the next page, which was a file.
"Agreement Concerning Uesugoshi's Voluntary Donation**"
"This is……"
"That's right," Gu Bei nodded, "This is a possibility beyond possibility. Mai Shutoku investigated the whereabouts of Uesugi Koshi's wife."
With that said, Gu Bei took out another document.
"Do you remember the Herzog I asked you to find? I remembered that this man was once a scientist in the Red Alliance. Later, after the alliance disintegrated, his whereabouts were unknown..."
"But when I was investigating Eriki's life experience, I saw this person's name again."
The document was placed in front of Yuan Zhisheng, with only five large characters on the pure white cover.
"Black Swan Plan".
"Consider this my birthday gift to you...even though you may not like it very much."
