From the curse back, I started to eat the clone's soft rice

Could it be that the losses caused by his father have reduced the Toyokawa family to the point where they would do such a thing?

But the problem is, although she has a stubborn personality, Shoko Toyokawa has been the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa family for so many years, and she has some understanding of the size of the Toyokawa family. The 168 billion loss caused by her father may indeed be a huge sum of money after he was expelled from the Toyokawa family, but for the entire Toyokawa family, it should not be considered a particularly serious loss.

So why did things turn out like this?

"Xiangzi, you don't understand the changes in this world, let alone what the future of this world will be like, so you may not understand my actions, but everything I do is not just for the benefit of the Toyokawa family, it is also for your own good."

Toyokawa Sadaharu stood in front of his granddaughter and spoke with a very sincere attitude.

In his attitude towards his granddaughter, Toyokawa Sadaharu was far less casual than he was towards Toyokawa Shoko's father, Toyokawa Seikao.

On the one hand, it is the most basic family affection, and on the other hand, it is because of identity.

Although he is the current head of the Toyokawa family, Toyokawa Sadaharu is actually a son-in-law like his son-in-law Toyokawa Kiyoshi. After his wife and daughter died one after another, all the power and legitimacy of his status came from his granddaughter Toyokawa Shoko.

In the conversation he had just had with his granddaughter Toyokawa Shoko, he had indeed not told a single lie. The reason he wanted Shoko to serve that adult was indeed for Shoko's own good. It was also the result of a joint discussion between him and senior family members from other branches and offshoots of the Toyokawa family.

Judging from the eldest daughters and female heirs sent to that lord by the Fujiwara, Suho, and Shinomiya families, that lord was not the type to treat the women around him as playthings. The female relatives sent to that lord were generally treated very well.

In this case, the female members who were sent to that adult were not just bargaining chips to please that adult. On the contrary, they could stay with that adult for a long time, get along with that adult to deepen the impression, and even have an intimate relationship with that adult. These were all real benefits.

Just think about it, if a family sends their female heir to that adult, then by virtue of the long-term relationship and the impression left by the various relationships with that adult, when she returns to the family, whether she wants power, or directly gives orders, or even directly expresses that she wants to inherit the position of head of the family, with that adult backing her up, who would dare to say a word against her?

Therefore, the person who can be sent to that adult in the entire Toyokawa family must be Toyokawa Shoko. No one else can do it. If anyone dares to change her, the other branches and offshoots of the Toyokawa family will probably unite on the spot to drive Toyokawa Sadaharu out of the position of head of the family.

After all, you actually want to replace such an important candidate? Could this person be your illegitimate daughter, trying to take advantage of the opportunity to take over?

Unfortunately, in the face of Toyokawa Sadaharu's persuasion, Toyokawa Shoko remained unmoved and obviously did not believe it.

In this regard, Toyokawa Sadaharu could only sigh.

"Well, in that case, I'll have to let you see for yourself the darkness of the Toyokawa family."

Witness...the darkness of the Toyokawa family?

Upon hearing this, Shoko Toyokawa's eyes widened, she felt nervous, and stared at her grandfather's movements.

Then she saw her grandfather walk to a corner of the room and slowly extend his hand.

What is this for?

Wait, this action, could it be...

pat!

Under the gaze of Shoko Toyokawa, Sadaharu Toyokawa pressed the switch and turned off the chandelier in the room.

As the chandelier went out, the whole room was plunged into darkness.

What does this mean?

Looking at the scene in front of her, before Shoko Toyokawa could ask the question in her heart, she saw that her grandfather had lit a very retro medieval lantern at some point.

The warm firelight illuminated the room, illuminating whatever lay beneath the darkness.

At this moment, Toyokawa Shoko's expression suddenly became extremely terrified, because she saw countless distorted figures emerging in the room.

"Can you see...can you see?"

The evil spirits, which were bloated and as huge as two or three meters tall, wandered around in groups of two or three, repeating the same whispers over and over again.

Although she had never encountered such an incredible situation before, Shoko Toyokawa instinctively realized that she must not let these guys know that she could see.

Fortunately, Toyokawa Shoko didn't feel frightened for long, and Toyokawa Sadaharu extinguished the lantern.

Suddenly, the evil spirit in front of him disappeared again, as if everything he had seen before was just an illusion.

"See? This is what's hidden beneath the darkness of the Toyokawa family. It's not just the Toyokawa family, it's the same for the entire world."

Turning on the chandelier in the room again, letting the light illuminate the surroundings, Sadaharu Toyokawa came back to Shoko Toyokawa and said.

"What you just saw were beings called evil spirits. They are invisible to ordinary people and cannot harm those who cannot see them."

"But this was only the case in the past. These evil spirits are becoming increasingly powerful. In the near future, the rules that constrain them will become increasingly weaker, and the entire world will become extremely dangerous."

"This is why I want to send you to that master. In the future, only by that master's side will you be the safest. Similarly, only that master can protect the Toyokawa family."

After carefully putting away the magic lantern that he had spent a lot of points to buy from the auction under the name of that adult, which could make spirits within a certain range appear, Toyokawa Sadaharu explained what had just happened to Toyokawa Shoko.

After suddenly knowing the truth of this world, Toyokawa Shoko still stood there in a daze, or perhaps she had not yet recovered from the fear of facing the evil spirit.

But no matter what, after seeing what just happened, Toyokawa Shoko knew very well that she would never be able to go back to her past life no matter what.

Chapter 269: The United States Military's Discovery, the Shadow Corps Exposed

The next day, noon.

Inside the Fujiwara residence, Anshu, who had just tasted the flavor of the Flügel last night and fought a whole night with Jibril, sat in the room and looked at Toyokawa Shoko who was sent in front of him and had changed into a maid outfit.

Last night, after having the darkness of the Toyokawa family revealed to her by her grandfather Toyokawa Sadaharu and knowing the truth about this world full of evil spirits, Toyokawa Shoko finally died shamefully.

It’s okay when you don’t know some things, but once you know them, the psychological pressure of thinking that you may be surrounded by evil spirits all the time is difficult to describe in words.

Therefore, whether it was simply to seek peace of mind or to pursue the power to protect herself or even to gain the strength to resist evil spirits, Toyokawa Shoko had no choice but to be packed up by the Toyokawa family and sent to the Fujiwara residence.

Just think of it as changing jobs.

Shoko Toyokawa kept hypnotizing herself in her heart.

Yes, she was just working in a different place. Even if the owner here did something to her, it was because she was forced to do it, not voluntarily.

With this thought in mind, the girl finally perked up, and looked at the man in front of her with eyes that were three parts firm, three parts excited, three parts curious, and one part nervous.

"It's you?"

The moment she saw An Xiu, Toyokawa Shoko immediately recognized the man in front of her. If she remembered correctly, wasn't he the man she met last time when she was working in the exhibition hall?

"Hello again, Ms. Toyokawa."

"The last time we met, things might have been a little unpleasant. You were a little emotional at the time, and you had some misunderstandings about me."

"But since you're already here, I assume you've already corrected these problems one by one, right?"

An Xiu leaned back in his chair and spoke casually.

"According to the custom here, should I now tell you that I appreciate your guidance in the future?"

"you..."

Such a casual attitude immediately made the girl with a strong sense of self-esteem frown subconsciously. She instinctively wanted to breathe out, but when she thought of the man's identity, the words that were about to come out of her mouth were forced to be swallowed back.

"Yes, I will do my best to correct my previous mistakes. I hope you will give me more guidance in the future."

"very good."

Seeing this scene, An Xiu nodded, then slowly waved.

"Jibril."

As An Xiu finished speaking, the next second, a girl with a halo on her head and waving white wings appeared beside An Xiu.

"What are your orders, Master?"

At this moment, Jibril was full of energy and did not show any sign of fatigue. On the one hand, it was because she had the ability of soul supply, and accepting Anxiu's irrigation could bring her great benefits. On the other hand, at Anxiu and Jibril's strength level, unless it was a glass cannon with extremely biased physical defects, just a night of fierce fighting would not be a big consumption for both sides.

Not to mention Anshu, who has a Kryptonian physique and almost endless physical strength when not intensively consumed, even Jibril, who is not known for her physical fitness as a Flügel, recovered after just a short rest after enduring Anshu's attacks all night.

Theoretically, if one wanted to tire Jibril, a Flügel, out of something like that, it would take at least ten days or half a month of continuous practice.

"Take her to choose her own room, then send her to Qianhua's place and let Qianhua and the others arrange the daily affairs she needs to take care of."

Pointing at Toyokawa Shoko in front of him, Anshu spoke to Jibril beside him.

"Please leave it to me, Master."

Hearing this, Jibril smiled and nodded, then looked at the blue-haired girl.

"Then, please come with me."

"Ah, yes!"

Hearing Jibril's somewhat nonchalant tone, Toyokawa Shoko finally came to her senses and nodded in response, but she couldn't help but steal a glance at Jibril in front of her.

Is this... an angel? Angels actually exist in this world, and they just appeared in an instant.

What was her relationship with this man, and why did she call him "master"? Was it one of those contractual relationships so common in fantasy works?

I occasionally read some fantasy-themed comics and watch some movies and TV shows, and from time to time I would have some second-year fantasy of Toyokawa Shoko in my mind.

Anxiu watched Jibril and Toyokawa Shoko disappear in the room, and then, as if he suddenly sensed something, he turned his attention to the Black Shadow Corps.

......

In Neon, at a military base belonging to the United States.

A group of high-ranking United States military officers were sitting around a conference table, staring intently at a video in front of them.

It was a photo taken by a United States soldier when he was passing by a remote area at night. In the picture, many ninjas wearing black ninja uniforms, with dark blue skin and bloodshot eyes, were quickly entering a mansion by climbing walls and climbing over rooftops. Soon, bursts of panic and screams were heard in the mansion.

The soldier who was filming seemed to be frightened, and the camera shook violently, as if he was looking for a place to hide.

It wasn't until about a few minutes later that the noise inside the mansion subsided, and the soldier who was filming finally plucked up the courage, climbed over the wall of the mansion, and filmed inside.

At this moment, the mansion was filled with fallen people. The ninjas with bloodshot eyes were quickly gathering all the unconscious targets together.

Then, under the gaze of a group of United States officers, the ninjas in the picture, along with those who fell to the ground, slowly sank into the shadows under their feet!

However, in just a few seconds, those black-clad ninjas and the people in the mansion disappeared without a trace, as if they had never existed. Only the empty mansion was left, revealing everything that had happened here before.

At this point, the video ended and a group of United States officers looked at each other.

"Are you sure this video is real?"

"It has been confirmed that there is no trace of tampering. It is indeed a real video."

"very good."

It's true, that's enough.

The United States officers present did not care about the source of the video or any other issues. They only cared about the information revealed in the video and what benefits they and the United States behind them could get from it.

"There's no doubt this is a biological weapon that the Japanese government has secretly developed through human experiments, hiding from the United States!"

A United States officer slammed the table and spoke.

Although the end of the video contained the most information, which was the scene where a group of black shadow ninjas disappeared with the people in the mansion, the United States officers present were unable to analyze the reason. But at the beginning of the video, they could clearly see the group of ninjas jumping several meters high and running across the eaves and walls!

There is no doubt that this must be the result of Japan's private research. They actually created such a biological weapon, and the most important thing is that they did not even share this research result with them. It is really a heinous crime!

It seems that it is time for these world police to enforce justice again.

Chapter 270: An Xiu's Arrangements, the United States' Actions

The news that Neon might possess some advanced biological weapons technology was quickly reported to the United States, and a group of United States officers in the Neon military base also received orders from above.

Test the official attitude of Japan and try to force Japan to hand over the technology.

In response to such an order, the officers present naturally immediately arranged personnel and cooperated with relevant personnel to start the action.

after one day.

"Regarding this matter, has there been any official response from Neon?"

Still in the previous conference room, a group of United States military officers sat around the conference table, listening to reports from their subordinates.

"Neon officials have acknowledged the authenticity of the video content and have called the ninjas that appeared in the video Black Shadow Ninjas."

I only heard the subordinate who was responsible for reporting standing nearby speak.

"Oh, so they are planning to share this kind of shadow ninja technology with us?"

"No, although they admitted the authenticity of the video, Japanese officials refused our request to investigate and share technology, and their attitude was very tough."

Upon hearing this, the United States officers present couldn't help but look at each other.

Admitted that the video content was true, but refused to share the technology?

For the United States officers present who did not know the origin of the Shadow Ninja, wasn't Japan's reaction equivalent to telling them clearly that we have this technology, but we just won't give it to you?

For the United States, which has always been domineering, Japan's attitude is somewhat too arrogant.

"Is it possible to send spies to obtain this technology?"

A leading United States officer asked.
