The sun finally set, the scattered busy people on the streets disappeared, and night enveloped the quiet town.
I don't know when a cloud gathered, and then a drizzle fell, with raindrops like cow hair floating in the dim light.
The rain soon picked up.
Gu Bei supported Yuan Qi and enveloped himself and Hui Liyi, so the rainwater circled around Gu Bei's body and fell at his feet to form a puddle. Another raindrop fell into the puddle and a flower bloomed. Fireworks.
Eriki raised her head and said, "It's raining."
"Yeah." Gu Bei nodded, "Are you hungry?"
"A little."
"Want to go back to the hotel for something to eat?"
Eriko shook her head.
There were no restaurants in the town. Because of the rain, many stalls that had been set up outside had closed their stalls in advance. The two of them finally found a shop that was still open.
But it's not a hotel.
It's a bookstore.
"If it hadn't rained, I would have closed the door and gone home by now, but unfortunately the rain stopped me in the store. You are very lucky... maybe Amaterasu is blessing you."
The old man named Saito put the fried fish, rice and miso soup on the table in front of the two of them with a smile. In fact, even if they couldn't find a place to hide from the rain, it was nothing to Gu Bei and Eriki, but Gu Bei Instead of refuting what Old Saito said, he said thank you and then pushed his share in front of Eriki.
Eriki looked up at him.
Gu Bei smiled and said, "You can eat, I'm not hungry."
With the Immortal Thief of Liuku with him, as long as his Yuan Qi does not dry up, Gu Bei will not be hungry.
Eliyi's little head naturally wouldn't consider such a problem. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then picked up a piece of fish with her tachyon and fed it to Gu Bei's mouth with her hands.

After looking at the other party, it turned out that there was no very useful protection, but Kazama Ruri did react to the name Yuan Zhisheng at that time.
Now it seems that Kazama Ruri and Minamoto are the brothers from the Minamoto family in Shikatori Town?
But, why did Yuan Zhisheng become the young master of the underworld and Kazama Ruri became the cowherd of the countryside?
There's something wrong with this!
These two are not twins, so there is no need to refer to the single inheritance law of dragon blood, which means that these two should be equally matched in blood.
This is clear when compared with Hui Liyi.
Before coming to Shikatori Town, Minamoto Chisei secretly compared his own DNA with that of Eriki, and the result certainly showed that the two were related by blood.
Assuming that Kazama Ruri and Yuan Zhisheng are indeed brothers, then Kazama Ruri should have similar bloodline strength.
With this kind of blood, you want to be a cowherd?
Is it because of hobbies?
You can't say for sure, after all, the brain circuits of hybrids are all kinds of weird. Once, a student in Kassel proposed to go to a mental hospital to study how to cultivate immortality. Then the senior student stayed in the psychology department for a whole semester before he got better.
But there is another possibility.
The identity of the cowherd named Kazama Ruri exists as a vest.
This explanation is much more reasonable.
etc!
Gu Bei suddenly reacted.
If Ruri Kazama and Ruri Minamoto are related by blood, and Minako Ruri and Eri are both individuals cultivated from embryos, then what about Ruri Kazama?
If Ruri Kazama and Ruri Minamoto are in the same situation, but there are no files left in Snake Qihachi’s family, then why does he use Ruri Kazama’s name to hide his identity?
He wants to avoid Yuan Zhisheng and Sheqi Bajia?
Why are you hiding from Yuan Zhisheng and Sheqi Bajia?
What identity needs to be avoided by Yuan Zhisheng and Sheqi Bajia?
...Mongolian ghosts!
He's working for the Menggui! ?
After figuring this out, Gu Bei felt suddenly enlightened, but more questions followed.
But according to Boss Saito, the Genji brothers disappeared a few years ago. Before that, the two had a very good relationship. So why did Kazama Ruri work for the Menggui?
Unless...he turned into a ghost! ?
Gu Bei already knew the information about the Menggui and the Oni from Crow and Misuki Sakura. In short, the Menggui is a hybrid organization composed of ghosts that resists the Snake Qiba family, and the so-called ghosts are bloodline The eight members of the Snake Qi family who have lost control and fallen, but have not yet completely become Deadpool.
Therefore, the correct story should be that Fengjian Liuli turned into a ghost and joined the fierce ghosts. Because Fengjian Liuli was Yuan Zhisheng's biological sibling, the young master never publicized this matter and did not tell anyone about it. I have a brother, and I have been secretly chasing the brother who turned into a ghost?
But Gu Bei always felt that something was not right.
The story is like unoiled bearings, it does make sense, but it doesn't flow.
There is a key figure whose presence here is too weak, so weak that Gu Bei ignores his existence, but in fact, this person's presence should not be so weak.
The patriarch, Tachibana Masamune.
Gu Bei is still not sure about Tachibana Masamune's identity, so he dare not draw any conclusions. However, according to Yuan Zhisheng, he was able to grow up smoothly with the help of his parents.
So to say? The same should be true for his brother Ruri Kazama.
If Tachibana Masamune was really Herzog, could he just let go of high-quality experimental materials like Kazama Ruri?
This is not normal.
There must be something I haven't figured out yet.
Fengjian Liuli is a member of the Menggui clan...
The group of Bosozoku that I beat to death yesterday were also members of the Menggui clan...
The meng ghosts are looking for trouble for themselves...
But it was clear that the person who did the experiment on Eriki was an undercover agent at the Snakekihachi family...
So...huh
The ghosts = the Eight Snakes!
No, no!
It should be said that the undercover agents of Mengguizhong and Sheqiba's family are looking for trouble on their own, and their target is Eri Yi.
In other words, the undercover agents in She Qiba's family are members of the Menggui Zhong?
Herzog is not in the Sheqiba family, but in the Menggui clan?
It does make sense... but it's still wrong.
Gu Beiyun calculated the numbers twice, but still got no answer. However, it was not easy to go into the interior to ask questions at this time, and Gu Bei always felt that the interference in this matter was a bit big, and he was afraid that he would be burned directly if he asked. Death in the interior.
The rain outside gradually stopped, and the lights in the shop were on. Eriki was eating slowly like a hamster. Gu Bei was listening to old Saito talking about the Genji brothers a few years ago, while sorting out his own things. Thoughts, but his mind turned into a ball of yarn without beginning or end. He felt that he was very close to the truth, but could not find the key node.
But one thing occurred to him.
Fengjian Liuli is a member of the Menggui Clan, and the group of Bosozokus he killed yesterday are also members of the Menggui Clan.
The bloodline of the man in sunglasses who was beaten to death was close to A-level. After taking the medicine, he had almost 2.5 sources. So Kazama Ruri’s bloodline was similar to that of Minamoto and Eri. After taking the medicine...
It looks like there will be a tough battle tonight.
After a while, Eriki filled her stomach, and Gu Bei helped put away the bowls: "Boss Saito, do you want to go back to stay today?"
Saito waved his hand: "No, it's too dark. My old bones can't stand it. There is a temporary room on the second floor of the store. I can just make do with it."
Gu Bei nodded: "That's good. There may be some vibrations in the town tonight. Please close the doors and windows and get some rest early."
"Shock? Earthquake?" The old man was stunned for a moment, "It's okay. Shikatori Town is protected by deer spirits, so everything will be fine."
"Well, the main shock is over Mount Shikatori. Nothing will happen in the town..." After Gu Bei finished speaking, he took Eriki and left the bookstore.
Outside the bookstore, a black Hummer had been waiting at the door for a long time.
Sitting in the passenger seat was Yuan Zhisheng.
"How is the evacuation of the town going?"
"I contacted the military and issued a notice on the air defense drill, and now they have almost withdrawn."
Gu Bei pointed behind him: "The owner of this store hasn't left yet."
Yuan Zhisheng stuck his head out: "Oh, Grandpa Saito, there is no TV or anything in his bookstore, so he probably didn't receive the notice."
As he said that, he winked at the driver's seat.
The girl in the driver's seat opened the door and jumped out of the car. Only then did Gu Bei realize that the girl was not Ying, but a girl dressed similar to Ying.
Sensing Gu Bei's eyes, Yuan Zhisheng said: "Some little bugs have sneaked into the town, Ying went to deal with them."
small bug?
Gu Bei suddenly remembered the feeling of being spied on at sunset, and that familiar aura.
Why does Shutoku Mai appear here?
Does this matter still have anything to do with Lu Mingze?
But it's not a big problem. Sakura is no match for Shutoku Mai, and Shutoku Mai will not kill anyone who is not her target.
Just take it as a lesson to point the gun at Eri.
Yuan Zhisheng changed to the driver's seat, Gu Bei opened the door and let Eryi sit in the back seat.
Yuan Zhisheng watched Gu Bei close the car door: "Can you solve it yourself?"
"Uncle...Brother Yuan still doesn't understand me."
Gu Bei reined in his horse, shut up in time, and then looked at Eriyi: "Eriyi, do you think I can solve this matter?"
Eryi didn't ask what it was about. When she heard Gu Bei's question, she nodded very hard: "Gu Bei, it's okay."
In fact, she just came out to play this time. Gu Bei and Yuan Zhisheng didn't tell her anything about their plans... In fact, there was no point in telling her.
Gu Bei laughed loudly: "Look, this is the one who understands me."
Yuan Zhisheng turned green and started the car.
Gu Bei suddenly held the car window: "Brother Yuan, I have a question."
Yuan Zhisheng said impatiently: "If you have anything to say, please tell me."
Civilization made him swallow the last four words.
"Not now," Gu Bei shook his head, "We will talk in detail after tonight's incident is over."
Yuan Zhisheng didn't know why, but Gu Bei didn't want to say any more. He let go of the car window and took a long step towards the hotel.
Yuan Zhisheng composed himself, started the car and left.
Tonight's show has just begun. His mission is to protect Eryi, and leave all other matters to Gu Bei.
At the same time, in Shikatori Shrine.
Arisugawa Aoi placed the tea in front of Kazama Ruri: "It's all my fault. I was a little too excited after not seeing you for a long time, and it delayed your time to go down the mountain."
Although Kazama Ruri is a male, she acts older than Yamato Nadeshiko and Nadeshiko: "It's okay, I'm also very happy to see Aoi-san."
Arisugawa Aoi laughed: "You are much cuter now than when you were a child. When you were a child, you didn't dare to speak when you saw me."
"People will always grow up."
These words were quite emotional. Arisukawa Aoi felt a sadness lingering on the young man. She changed the subject and said: "The mountain road is not easy to walk at night. There are rooms over there in the side hall. You will stay here tonight. Speaking of when you were a child Your brother often takes you to the shrine to stay overnight."
Kazama Liuli smiled: "At that time, my brother was always busy making money and rarely had time to take care of me. If it weren't for Sister Kui, I would have starved to death at home."
"What are you saying? Your brother makes money to help you live a better life, doesn't he?"
"yes."
Kazama Liuli's frown and smile were like a person walking out of a painting. He first sighed, and then laughed again: "I remember Sister Kui liked my brother back then, right? What about now?"
Arisukawa Aoi suddenly blushed, and her pink fist fell on Kazama Ruri's shoulder: "Young kid, don't ask around...I, I'll make your bed."
After saying that, he covered his red face and ran away.
Kazama Liuli picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Back then...but what about now?"
