So angry!
Chiki Ueno had originally wanted to borrow some Mora from Ayaka Kamisato, but judging from her expression, there was probably no hope.
"Miss Ayaka Kamisato, we'll be leaving now."
After saying goodbye to Ayaka Kamisato, the three headed towards the Naganohara fireworks shop.
As she passed a corner, Chiki Ueno ran over and drew a seashell with a pebble.
Not long after, he led the two to the front of the Naganohara fireworks shop.
"Xiaogong, are you there?" he shouted at the top of his lungs.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a cheerful blonde girl rushed out of the store, her face beaming with a bright smile.
"Brother Qianshu, you've finally come to see me again. I've missed you so much these past few days."
"Uh... Yoomiya, these two are Traveler and Paimon. They came to ask you for help today." Ueno Chiki's expression was slightly awkward; Yoomiya's enthusiasm was a bit overwhelming.
Yingmei frowned slightly. Although she liked cute and lively younger sisters like Xiaogong, Xiaogong and Ueno Chiki were so close that it made her a little uncomfortable.
"No matter what it is, I will definitely help."
"Miss Ayaka Kamisato asked us to rescue Master Masakatsu, who forged the Eye of God, and asked us to seek your help."
Yomiya looked Ueno Chiki up and down and shook his head slightly. "Chiki-nii, you don't have any martial arts skills, so you're not suitable to go and rescue him."
"Of course I won't go to rescue her. The main force of the rescue operation is the Traveler, she's a very capable person!" Ueno Chiki pointed at Yingmei.
Yingmei puffed out her chest, directly demonstrating her "power".
“Alright then. Master Masakatsu is currently being held in the town magistrate’s office. I’ve already surveyed the surrounding area and found a very good infiltration spot.”
Paimon said with a smile, "Xiaogong is really reliable. We definitely found the right person."
Xiao Gong was also very happy, his eyes crinkling into crescent moons as he smiled. "Right? Hehe. Once we're ready, we'll set off. We absolutely, positively will rescue Master Zheng Sheng."
"Night Palace, Travelers, and Paimon, please be careful. I'll be waiting for your good news at home."
"Okay. After we save Master Zheng Sheng, Paimon and I will go back. You need to make us a late-night snack to treat us." Yingmei instructed Ueno Chiki.
Hearing this, Yoomiya was stunned. "Brother Chishu, Traveler, do you live together?"
“Yes! Paimon and I have been staying at Chishu’s house for several days now.”
Xiaogong felt very sad. If he had understood his own heart sooner, he would be the one living in Qianshu's house now.
"Brother Qian Shu, traveler, I wish you well," she said, forcing a smile.
"You've misunderstood. The traveler and I are just good friends," Ueno Chiki quickly explained, not wanting to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings.
Ever since that damn nightmare, whenever he sees Yingmei, he thinks of Kong licking his tongue at him, and his anus gets a little nervous.
What other ideas could I possibly have?
Yingmei glanced at him and felt that Ueno Chiki was becoming more and more hateful, and she really wanted to bite him.
Goodbye, everyone.
After saying goodbye to the others, Ueno Chiki embarked on her journey home.
Meanwhile, Yomiya, Eiryu, and Paimon devised a specific rescue plan at the Naganohara fireworks shop.
……
As night falls, the moonlight, like water, gently spills across the silent earth. All is quiet, save for the soft rustling of leaves in the breeze, like the whispers of nature.
Inside a simple wooden hut, the faint candlelight flickered, appearing particularly dazzling in the darkness.
Chiki Ueno sat down at her worn-out desk after a long absence and began to conceive her next novel.
The lukewarm reception of "Young Duck" was within his expectations, but it still left him somewhat disappointed.
Therefore, he decided to be even more radical in his next novel.
After much deliberation, he wrote "Night Shift Ward: The Coerced Second Head Nurse".
"Dottore is the deputy head nurse of the obstetrics and gynecology department at Dongdu Yuren General Hospital. Young, beautiful, and with a stunning figure, she's the dream goddess of countless men. However, she's now being coerced by the greedy and lecherous director, Piyero, because of her lover Scaramchi's assault incident..."
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
He had just written down the plot outline when a crisp knock came from outside the door.
"Code name 9527, that's me."
Ueno Chiki quickly covered her face with a cloth and then opened the door.
Outside the door was Mochizuki, the shrine maiden of Umijima Island, wearing a dragon lizard mask.
"Code name 9527, contact me. Do you have any intelligence to report to Haizhi Island?"
Chiki Ueno nodded. "Yes."
"Then tell me."
But she noticed that Ueno Chiki didn't say anything, she just rubbed her hands together.
"Hmph! Money-grubbing." Although she despised his behavior, she still tossed him a money bag. "I hope you can glean some valuable information."
"The Fools plan to use the turmoil they instigate together with the Sea Island rebels to coerce General Raiden into handing over something. There are a lot of Fools spies in the Sea Island rebels."
Wang Yue frowned slightly beneath the mask. They already knew this information, but it wasn't of much value.
Seeing that Mochizuki remained silent, Ueno Chiki decided to provide more information: "The evil eyes that the Fools provide you are the lowest quality. Although you can gain great power in a short time, you will quickly age and die afterwards."
At this moment, Mochizuki's expression changed drastically. The evil eyes of the Fools had already flowed into the Sea Island resistance army in large quantities. If it was not stopped now, countless resistance soldiers would grow old and die after using the evil eyes.
"Code name 9527, your intelligence is very valuable. Keep up the good work, Haizhi Island will never let you down."
After saying that, Mochizuki hurriedly left, as she had to immediately relay this important information back.
Chapter 45 Rescuing Master Zheng Sheng
Ueno Chiki opened the money bag that Mochizuki had thrown at her, and a joyful smile unconsciously appeared on her face. After carefully counting it, she found that it contained a full 200,000 Mora.
Two hundred thousand Mora would be enough for him to live a wealthy life for a while.
No wonder so many people joined the Haizhi Island resistance; the treatment was indeed very good.
Think about the three organizations he joined: the Fools only shouted slogans but didn't give any benefits, Narukami-sama didn't even shout slogans, and that fox was stingy. Only the Sea Island actually gave him real benefits.
If it weren't for the fact that Umijima Island would coexist peacefully with the Inatsuma Shogunate in the future, he would have wanted to serve Umijima Island for ten thousand years.
With so much Mora, he had little motivation to write novels.
After writing the first chapter, I threw the pen aside.
I'm preparing the ingredients to make a late-night snack for Yingmei and Paimon.
Meanwhile, Yingmei and Xiaogong had already infiltrated the town magistrate's prison.
In a dark cell, the dying Masakatsu looked helplessly at the two jailers dressed in the leather armor of the Shogunate army.
Among them, the fierce-looking jailer Kinoshita pushed in a cart full of torture instruments, a sinister and perverse smile on his lips.
"There's an old saying in Liyue: 'A wise man submits to circumstances.' I'm sure the various torture instruments we have right now will pry your mouth open. I hope you'll cooperate with us."
"I really don't know anything," Zheng Sheng said weakly.
"I really like your answer because it lets me do whatever I want."
With that, Kinoshita picked up a long whip covered in sharp spikes and lashed it fiercely at Masakatsu.
"Ah~! Iku~"
Zheng Sheng let out a heart-wrenching scream.
The scream pointed the way for Xiaogong and the others who were searching for him inside the prison.
Before long, Xiaogong, Yingmei, and Paimon hid in the shadows near the prison, waiting for an opportunity to rescue him.
At this moment, the appearance of another person disrupted their rescue plan.
Kujo Sara, with her cold and aloof demeanor, walked into the cell, glaring angrily at the two people before her. "Using torture is something the General has explicitly forbidden, right? You should know that."
Kinoshita and another jailer immediately knelt down and answered tremblingly, "Lord Kujo Sara, we... we just wanted to teach him a lesson."
“If you are not ashamed of what you have done, then you are not worthy to stand under the command of the Heavenly Lord!”
"My subordinate realizes his mistake."
That's what they said, but in their hearts they were full of complaints.
They are not worthy to stand under the command of the Heavenly Lord.
It's utterly ridiculous! The least deserving one is your father, Kujo Takakō. If he hadn't ordered them to interrogate Master Masakatsu to find out who was behind him, they wouldn't have bothered to torture that old man.
Of course, they couldn't tell the truth. Right now, they might offend Kujo Sara at most, but telling the truth would offend Kujo Takayuki. They could still distinguish between the two kings.
"Taking advantage of their distraction from Master Zheng Sheng might be a good opportunity," Xiao Gong said anxiously to Ying Mei from the shadows.
"Hey! Yoomiya. Aren't you being too impatient? Kujo Sara is still in the prison."
Paimon was trying to stop Xiaogong's reckless behavior, but Xiaogong had already begun her actions.
"Let me show you the good stuff I've prepared!"
A loud "bang" echoed throughout the prison.
After a brief moment of shock, Kujo Sara made a quick decision and immediately led two jailers to the site of the explosion to investigate.
At that moment, there was no one guarding the cell where Zheng Sheng was being held.
"Xiaogong, you're really something! Luring the tiger away from the mountain was a brilliant plan. I misunderstood you earlier," Paimon praised Xiaogong, giving him a thumbs up.
"Hehe, let's hurry and rescue them."
The three rushed into the cell and were heartbroken to see Zheng Sheng lying on the ground, covered in wounds and pale-faced.
Without hesitation, Xiaogong carried him on his back, saying, "Master Zhengsheng, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Those despicable fellows..."
However, just as they were about to leave, Kujo Sara suddenly appeared at the cell door.
"This is the only time. He's badly injured. Take him to get treatment quickly. But once he's healed, I will definitely bring him back."
Her tone was icy, but Xiaogong and the others could feel a touch of warmth.
