Direct succession to the throne and adoption through a branch are two completely different things.

however--

"No."

"You must not tell this news to anyone else."

"Including that little girl... Uesugi Eriya, right? You can't tell him either!"

It's like crazy.

Uesugi Yue stared with his eyes, and there was even a rare hint of blood in his golden pupils.

He desperately opposed the announcement of this news - just as he desperately opposed the fact that he was not Eri Uesugi's "father".

Is it difficult to understand?

No, it's not actually that difficult.

You just need to put yourself into Uesugi Yue's mindset a little bit.

"If it's a granddaughter or a granddaughter-in-law, it proves that he is just missing a part of the love from [Grandpa]."

"Although this is a bit regrettable for a child, it is not unacceptable."

"Because she still has parents, and perhaps she had a childhood that wasn't too miserable."

"But if I were her father..."

This boy, who had waited for more than eighty years and had never "grown up", suddenly became mature after learning that he suddenly had a "straight back".

He realized what a serious mistake he had made.

"responsibility."

He abandoned his responsibilities.

It is my responsibility as a father, as an elder, and as the [Shadow Emperor].

——They were all burned to ashes by his reckless fire back then.

And now, it's even worse.

"It's too late."

"Ah He, do you understand what I'm saying?"

"No matter what I do, it's too late for her."

Uesugi Yue murmured.

These words were not actually said to Inuyama He, but to himself.

——The girl has grown up, and the person who was originally her closest blood relative has now become a complete "outsider".

Uesugi Yue knew this.

Therefore, he would never announce this news, nor would he allow others to announce this news - so as not to disturb the girl's hard-earned and relatively peaceful life.

This was the last thing he could do for the girl.

——The old man in his twilight years thought so.

but……

"Well, I can understand your feelings and respect your decision."

Looking at the man's somewhat frustrated yet very determined eyes, Bai Long smiled and shook his head.

"But what if I told you that there's an old guy around your age who wants to take over your daughter's body and use her to wear beautiful white pantyhose (White King Body)?"

“!!!”.

Chapter 205: The Fierce Ghosts: Eri’s magic is great!

"Someone is trying to take over the body of your daughter, whom you have never met."

This is not a prophecy.

This is merely an irresponsible speculation based on known intelligence.

——Shirataki didn't even produce any concrete evidence to explain why he made this guess and why he inferred guilt to the "person" hiding in the dark.

But he didn't need any evidence.

"whispering sound--"

Uesugi Yue snorted coldly.

He is not the kind of person who requires "evidence" for everything.

Or perhaps, someone like him who is in a high position doesn't care about "evidence" at all.

—When he suspects you of doing something, —you'd better actually do it.

Because even if you don't do it, he will act according to his own will and nip any possible "dangers" in the bud.

"tell me."

"Where is he?"

The man who had almost completed his [Dragon Transformation] finally stood up from the chair.

He is already old, and the frivolity of his youth is gone like the faded spring snow.

But, at this moment.

Inuyama He, who was standing in front of him, truly felt the cold breath like a snowstorm.

He understood that the man in front of him had truly murderous intentions.

——But this seems not enough.

This level of murderous intent does not seem to be enough to make up for the suffering that the girl has experienced since she was born.

"Who knows where he's hiding?"

"Maybe it's under the sea, or maybe it's in the mountains."

"Or perhaps, it's in someone's subconscious—for example, that JK in the sailor suit?"

Shirataki shrugged, looking like he was saying, "I can only help you up to this point."

But Inuyama He felt that this god seemed to be "adding fuel to the fire."

——His words clearly hinted to Uesugi Yue that "the entire Tokyo may be your enemy."

But the man in front of him was the kind of person who would never fall for this.

"Then search all over Tokyo!"

"If it's a man who kills someone, it's a ghost who kills someone else!"

Uesugi Yue said in a very "irresponsible" tone.

——It was at this moment that Inuyama He felt that time did not seem to pass so quickly.

The old man standing in front of him was still the "Last Shadow Emperor" who had burned down the ancestral shrine of the Eight Snake Families just because of his own preferences.

"Aha."

"Yes, master."

"Can you still wield the knife?"

"Of course, Patriarch."

……

The Eight Snake Clans are taking action.

Whether it is an open investigation or a secret "investigation".

Although everyone has their own little thoughts, no matter what, the interests of the entire Sheqi Eight Families must be put first.

——A big tree is good for sheltering from the wind; when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.

This is a truth that everyone knows.

Most of the current leaders of the Snake Eight Clan had experienced the disintegration of history after World War II. Therefore, they knew more clearly than others the importance of "unity" and the fact that the golden signboard of "Snake Eight Clan" must not fall.

"Report to the young master, we have discovered an underground base. It is hidden in the ventilation duct of a certain building. It is speculated that it should be the temporary base of the fierce ghost group."

"Reporting to the young master, we have found a sealed laboratory, but it has a self-destruct program inside. We are currently trying to open it using non-violent means."

"Reporting to the young master, we have found traces of Deadpool in the eastern park... There are not many, but they are quite scattered and have caused panic among the crowd."

"Reporting to the young master, two people broke into our area and killed two suspected members of the Oni clan on the spot... One of them was the head of the Inuyama family."

The director's office of the Executive Bureau instantly turned into a combat meeting room.

All kinds of messy news came here from all directions - some good news, but more bad news.

You don't know until you investigate. Once you investigate, you will find out that there are so many dark things hidden inside this city, things that even he, the "young master of the underworld", doesn't know about - such as the remains of the missing children, and the shocking experimental records.

"What on earth do the fierce ghosts want to do?"

It was only now that he, or rather the people of the Sheqi Eight Clans, realized that they had underestimated this organization of "rebels" from the beginning.

They are not some mindless violent organization!

They had a clear plan, and the means to go with it. They even had their own research lab... Damn it, where on earth did these desperate guys get the funds to practice these "forbidden techniques" that even the people of the Sheqi Eight Clans wouldn't easily undertake?

"Or is there really a traitor within the Sheqi Eight Clan?"

"Who is it? The Sakurai family or the Fuma family?"

Lying on the chair, Yuan Zhisheng touched his head.

——Because he had processed a lot of information in a short period of time, his brain was already showing signs of overload at this moment.

He knew that it was no longer appropriate for him to continue thinking.

When a person's brain is overheated, he will always lose his rationality and make unrealistic judgments. He must force himself to calm down and find the only way to the "truth" from those clues that he doesn't know whether they are clues or traps.

"cherry."

"Go get me some coffee."

Looking at the sky outside which was already getting bright, Yuan Zhisheng rubbed his eyes.

He hasn't had a good rest for two days.

Moreover, he was prepared to not be able to rest properly in the next week.

but--

"Not good, young master."

Just as Yuan Zhisheng was savoring the taste of the iced coffee and trying to force himself to cheer up.

The young man named "Crow" who followed him as a retainer rushed into the director's office in a panic.

"what happened?"

Yuan Zhisheng frowned.

——He asked this question unnecessarily.
