Suddenly, something flashed through Zhiyao's mind.
He knew what to do.
"Hey, baby, maybe there's a way that will work." Zhiyao smiled knowingly, "I'm going to give it a try."
Xiao Wuhui instantly understood what he was thinking and her eyes widened in disbelief.
"manage……"
She tried to dissuade him quickly, but before she could even finish calling his name, Zhiyao's hand had already touched Yae's body.
"Today is June 6th. Mikoto seems to like this place very much. We played with the children from the neighborhood today. A spacious house like this is perfect for a playful child, but it seems a bit too spacious for me, who's sick. This afternoon, my husband, daughter, and I went for a walk in the mountains. I seemed to be in good health, so I could still walk a little before feeling tired. Days like this are really happy."
"Today is June 6th. That camera seems to have some strange power, capable of photographing things that don't exist. Mikoto begged me to lend it to her, but I refused. I don't know what it is, but I just don't want her to see it. I don't want her to have anything to do with it, and I have a bad feeling."
"Today is June 6th. Mikoto didn't come home. She said she was going to play hide-and-seek with her friends, so she shouldn't have left the house. Her friends didn't come home either. The camera is missing. Mikoto must have taken it."
"Today is June 6th. Mikoto has been missing for three days. I can see those things even without the camera. Everything is getting weirder and weirder. My child, where are you..."
"Ryozo, I, I can't take it anymore. It's all because I gave the camera to that kid. Mikoto must have been captured by a monster. It's all my fault..."
At the end of the scene, Yae is standing on a stool and putting her neck into the rope.
The regret from the bottom of his heart, the despair of losing his beloved daughter, the endless sadness, at that moment, all the emotions flooded into Zhiyao's mind.
He opened his throat and screamed "No", but no sound came out;
He tried to stop Yae, but his limbs did not respond at all, as if this body was not his own at all.
All he could do was watch Yae walk towards death.
The next second, as Yae kicked the stool away from under her feet, the scene in front of her eyes returned to normal.
Zhiyao considered himself a fairly easy-to-tear person, but the overwhelming sadness, like a flood, ripped through his emotional defenses. His nose suddenly felt sore, and he frowned, rubbing his eyelids repeatedly. He told himself that this was someone else's experience and emotions, and that he hadn't truly lost anything. Yet, the overwhelming sadness lingered in his heart, lingering for a moment, and even briefly, he considered suicide.
"Patta, patta"
Tears fell like raindrops from the sky, like pearls shining with the sun, flowing over the eye sockets and landing on Yae's face without the boy noticing. At the same time, Yae, who was still grinning, also became quiet, as if a shutdown switch had been pressed.
"Mikoto...she's fine..." Wiping some of his tears with his collar, he pulled Yae up and hugged her tightly, ignoring the risk of being grabbed and bitten at any moment.
"It's okay, it's really okay, Yae..." He tried his best to control the sob in his voice.
"Mikoto was later...found...well...she lost her memory of those few days...and then...someone adopted her. She grew up, got married, and had a daughter..."
The sound penetrated directly into his mind. Gradually, Yae's eyeballs were no longer just white. Miraculously, black pupils appeared. As his eyelids blinked gently, the scattered light began to condense together.
After a while, Yae's eyes regained their luster.
"I...this is..." Finding himself being held by someone, Yae subconsciously looked at the person's face.
"Are you awake?"
"Um, may I ask who you are..."
"You don't remember me at all, okay." Zhiyao released his hands and smiled in relief, "That's right, I must have traveled to another timeline, otherwise you wouldn't still be here."
The more Yae listened, the more confused he became, like a bewildered monk.
Chapter 39: [Important characters must be brought along]
"Sikong."
Xiao Wuhui jumped out of Zhiyao's body. Seeing Xiao Wuhui, Yae felt inexplicably familiar.
"Child...have we met somewhere before..."
"Hello, Munakata Yae. It's been many years since we last met."
Yae then remembered.
"Also, don't think she is a child. She is more than qualified to be your elder." Zhiyao added.
Next, Komiya gave a brief account of the whole incident. Yae nodded as she listened, and by the end she had some idea of what was going on.
"I never thought I, who was already dead, could still exist in this form." Yae couldn't help but sigh, feeling a thousand emotions in his heart, "I actually became one of those monsters and attacked you."
"You have to thank Sikong for this. He has been trying every possible way to wake you up and has been talking to you at the risk of being caught by you." Xiao Wuhui said.
Hearing this, Yae looked at Zhiyao with an indescribable feeling.
Inadvertently recalling what the other party had said before, Yae put his hand on the back of Zhiyao's hand and asked the question that concerned him the most, "Child...you just said that Mikoto is fine, is that true?"
Zhiyao pulled her hand away, feeling uncomfortable with such a name.
"My name is Sikong Zhiyao, you should call me Sikong. Mikoto is indeed fine. She was found in the forest near the Himuro residence."
As Zhiyao finished speaking, Xiao Wuhui added, "She was indeed caught by the monster you mentioned. Fortunately, she had a camera with her that day and was able to repel the monster. The other children with her were not spared, but the monster was also killed by Sikong."
"That's right, he deserves to die. He killed my child when he was alive, and he didn't let me go even after the child died. I only regret that I didn't torture him to death." Zhiyao snorted disdainfully, and said viciously, "But it's not just my credit. Two companions helped me, hehe." After saying that, he waved to Shenhong and the other two, "Don't just stand there like idiots. Come over and introduce yourselves."
"Oh, oh." Gudu trotted over, "Mrs. Zongfang... I... am Kurosawa Gudu, and I'm Sikong's friend."
Shenhong stood there without moving.
"Hey, hey, hey, Hinasaki, why are you in a daze? Come over and recognize your relatives." Zhiyao waved to Shenhong and urged her.
Seeing that enthusiastic look, Shenhong hesitated even more.
In the final analysis, she didn't feel any sense of kinship towards this so-called great-grandmother. People say that grandparents are closer than grandparents, but that was before she was ten years old. Now, not only are there two generations between them, but she is still seventeen years old and in the rebellious period of adolescence.
Seeing that Shenhong was reluctant to move, Zhiyao had to introduce her on his behalf.
"That girl over there is called Hinasaki Shinku. She's from quite a prominent family. She's the daughter of Mikoto's daughter."
Yae was completely shocked when he heard the voice, and then gradually revealed a kind smile.
The daughter she had been longing for now even had a granddaughter, so she could finally rest assured.
Just as she was thinking about going over to say hello to her great-granddaughter, she was about to take a step when she heard Zhiyao continue, "Actually, you have a great-grandson who is also at the Bingshi Residence. It's just that you can't see him for the time being. But, please believe me, you will be able to see him soon."
On the other side, Shenhong lowered his eyes dejectedly and sighed weakly.
I really don't know what this guy is so happy about. His great-granddaughter is so calm, but he, an outsider, is so happy.
Squatting down, Shenhong cleared his mind and began to rummage through the handbag on the ground. Soon, he pulled out a bronze key from it.
"Sikong, I found the key." Shenhong walked quickly towards Zhiyao. After arriving, he glanced at Yazhong and then quickly looked away. "It should be the key to the safe."
"A safe?" Yae stared at the key, then looked towards the second floor. "Ryozo does have a safe, and I usually keep the key here."
"Is it a particularly small box?" Gudu said while gesturing, trying to confirm, and a smile appeared on his face when he got Yae's affirmative answer.
"Then let's get going quickly." Crimson urged without stopping, taking the first two steps towards the mansion.
rear.
"Yajou, you have to come with us." Zhiyao said directly and clearly, with a tone that did not allow for refusal.
"Hey, me?" Yae was slightly surprised.
"Of course, this is the situation now." Zhiyao coughed solemnly, "Due to special reasons, the road to Huangquan is blocked. You can neither go to Huangquan nor leave Bingshi Mansion now. There are many ferocious evil spirits in here. I am not at all reassured to let you act alone. Staying with us is the best option right now."
Gu Du and Xiao Wuhui didn't care about it. Shen Hong turned her head and looked over here quietly, unable to stop wondering in her heart.
Why do you have to bring her along? Wouldn't it be better to find a place to hide her like Yuzi?
Shenhong couldn't figure it out, and had a vague urge to get to the bottom of it.
Xiao Wuhui's identity is special. She knows everything about the Himuro residence. Sikong even suspects that he likes her, so there is no problem for her to stay by his side. Yae's ghost is also with the team. The feeling is a bit difficult to describe. The main reason is that he had been so heartless before, and he only wanted to kill her quickly and be done with it. In the end, Sikong really woke her up. Even if he has no feelings for her, he is still a blood relative, and he still feels guilty.
Of course, she didn't know that Zhiyao made this decision because Yae had appeared in the character relationship chart. In Zhiyao's view, anyone who had appeared was a person of great importance, the type who must have intersections and must be protected.
Just like the girl with glasses before, I ignored her at first thinking she was a passerby, but when I found out it was Iyama Yuki, I immediately became enthusiastic.
The next moment, Shenhong felt numb all over - she saw Zhiyao holding her great-grandmother's hand.
This is too familiar.
Is this really okay?
Her gaze was fixed on the two men's hands and was quickly noticed by Zhiyao.
"Why are you looking at us?" Zhiyao tilted his head.
"Oh, no, nothing." Shen Hong quickly turned her face away, "It's really nothing, let's go quickly."
Following Shenhong's gaze, Zhiyao gradually understood something and the corners of her mouth curled up humorously.
Letting go of Yae, he walked over to Shenhong and said frankly: "Don't worry, I won't have any thoughts about other people's wives."
Crimson pretended not to hear anything. Behind him, Yae looked away, looking embarrassed.
Shenhong's reaction obviously did not meet expectations, so Zhiyao added another sentence.
"Also, although I really want to have another great-granddaughter, people won't agree."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Du burst out laughing on the spot. Shen Hong was choked and his face was full of disbelief. For a long time, he stared with his eyes wide open and reached out to pinch the man's arm.
Zhiyao, who had been prepared, dodged calmly and retreated towards an open area.
"Hey, just talk, don't touch me." Zhiyao suppressed his smirk and tried to dissuade him seriously.
"I'll have to teach you a lesson." Shen Hong pressed forward with a cold face, but within five seconds he lost his composure and burst out laughing, "You, you just stand there and don't move."
"Why?"
"You have no sense of propriety in your words. You must correct it now."
"Try to touch me if you dare. You'll be noticed. Aren't you afraid?" Zhiyao warned.
"It's still unclear who will be favored by whom, tsk." Shenhong said disdainfully and angrily.
"Come on, with your mediocre skills?"
"You can't do it without Kirie-chan, how dare you boast like that?"
Starting almost at the same time, the two of them trotted and chased each other in the courtyard. Gudu giggled and Yae's eyes were full of tenderness.
She thought that this young man named Sikong should be her great-grandson-in-law.
……
As the key was inserted into the keyhole of the safe, the door opened immediately. The three of them were overjoyed and saw that there were masks inside. They were in high spirits.
"Is it this mask?" Zhiyao asked Xiao Wuhui.
Shenhong pulled out a previous photo for comparison, and then answered for Xiao Wuhui, "This is it, exactly the same. We can go now."
"Well, you are going to..." Yae was vaguely curious and was wondering why her husband put the mask in the safe.
"We are going to the main ancestral hall. Mrs. Munekata, have you been there?" Gu Du asked.
"No." Yae said regretfully, "To be honest, even though I've lived here for a while, there are some places I haven't been to yet."
Listening to the conversation between the two women with the same surname, Zhiyao suddenly remembered something, "You both have the surname Hei Ze, could your ancestors be related?"
"I don't know." Gu Du shook his head.
"Sikong, how did you know my last name was Heize before?" Yazhe stared at Zhiyao, concern written all over his face.
"He knows a lot, so I advise you not to ask." Crimson snorted indifferently, "Even if you ask, he won't tell you. It's better not to care about it, so as not to be kept in suspense."
Zhiyao immediately stared at her and their eyes met.
a long time.
"Okay, I'm actually your future son."
The whole audience was in an uproar. In fact, only Yae, Koto, Crimson and Komie remained calm as usual.
"Really?" Yae asked.
"It's obviously fake." Crimson rubbed his temple and replied calmly, "He doesn't look like him at all."
"Not similar in what?" Gudu moved closer and looked at the faces of the two men one after another.
"It's not like me..." Shenhong said, "It's not like..." Before she finished speaking, Shenhong pursed her lips. Seeing Gudu's expression of concern, she smiled and advised, "Don't worry, I won't tell."
