Chapter 506 Dinner Party
"Pedigree test? Director, are you kidding? This kind of thing is not something you can just talk about and joke about." Lin Xian was stunned for a while. He didn't even have time to pick up the bowl he put down, and looked at Yuan Zhi with a half-smile. born.
"Are you unwilling or worried about other things? If it's not convenient to tell you, I can understand." Yuan Zhisheng said.
"No, that's not the truth. What I mean is that things like bloodline rating tests are particularly labor-intensive and material-resource-consuming, right? Judging from the process at our headquarters, just forcing the venue to be cleared is already very troublesome, and it also requires Prepare various safety measures. If the examination site cannot reach the safety rating determined by Norma, it will have to be submitted again for review."
"Why is there such trouble?" Yuan Zhisheng shook his head, "Are your headquarters still following the method of safely awakening hybrids? Our evaluation point is Mount Araki, a low mountain near the foot of Mount Fuji in Tokyo. There is a dedicated monastery where the awakening and recuperation of mixed races can be carried out in a unified manner."
"A monastery in the mountains? Does it sound weird?" Lin Xian felt that it was not a good place for some reason.
"If you want to accept the bloodline rating, you don't have to go to so much trouble. You can just clear a floor at Genji Heavy Industries and do it directly. Norma has the dragon file and the spirit record Kaguya."
"Then why does the young master think that the results of the same blood test in different places will be different?" Lin Xian smiled and looked up at the man and asked, "I handed in a blank paper in the 3E exam in this department. There is no resonance in the spirit of words. I secretly asked my brother what it feels like to resonate. He told me that it was like having a nightmare during an exam. Then I got up and wrote all the answers on the paper. I never took the exam. I’m not in the habit of sleeping in.”
"There is a slight deviation between our family's blood test and our headquarters. The process we pay attention to and the results we value are never completely consistent." Yuan Zhisheng was silent for a moment and then continued to explain, "I'm not joking, maybe If you don’t gain anything in this department, you may get some different results in Japan.”
"Although I don't have any feelings for 'Emperor', Lin Nian asked the professor of the academy's 'Emperor' to sing the entire section of 'Emperor' in front of me, but I didn't react at all. This can be regarded as a final conclusion that I have no bloodline."
"The word 'Emperor' is indeed of great significance to hybrids. But there are always exceptions." Yuan Zhisheng looked at Lin Xian and said calmly, "Didn't you already say that there are always outstanding beings in the world? Different from excellence, mixed race represents this excellence among ordinary people. It may not be that there are no similar unique groups among mixed race."
Lin Xian slowly put down the bowl of wine, wiped the corners of his mouth and put a little rouge on his face, "I have been studying in the headquarters for a year, and I know a little bit about the history of hybrids and dragons. Now, young master, your speech is really interesting."
"The file says you are an orphan."
"Why did you mention this all of a sudden? Yes." Lin Xian paused and replied, "Does the young master have any advice on this? Or is it that orphans have special bonuses for mixed-race species? "
"Many mixed-races are orphans." Unexpectedly, Yuan Zhisheng actually admitted it, "Have I told you my story?"
"Oh, you seemed to have mentioned something before, saying that the current master is your stepfather." Lin Xian realized something and looked at Yuan Zhisheng with something inexplicable in his eyes.
"There is a high probability that mixed-race species will have natural golden eyes when they are fetuses. These phenomena are normal for mixed-race species, and can even be said to be proof and pride of their own lineage, but for ordinary people, it is probably not a problem. Are there disasters and supernatural events? Every year, the social welfare organizations established by the eight Sheqi families in Japan take the initiative to pick up abandoned babies and bring them to orphanages and welfare societies established under our industry to raise them. Facts have proved that here Among the large number of abandoned babies, there will indeed be a relatively large proportion of people suspected of being of mixed race." Yuan Zhisheng said and poured himself a glass of wine, and he had always said that he was not planning to drink.
"Have the eight Sheqi families also opened orphanages and welfare societies? This is a bit surprising to me. I had always thought that you were just a typical capitalist society with a black-and-white approach." Lin Xian scratched Bai Bai's head. With a slightly red neck, he raised the bowl in his hand, "No matter what your purpose or idea is, but just for these orphanages and welfare societies, I have to toast you."
"Maybe we are not as kind as you think." Yuan Zhisheng said calmly while looking at the girl who also came from an orphanage without raising his glass.
"So what? If everyone is kind, what need are bad people in the world? If there are no bad people, who can be called good people? In my opinion, the structure of your Sheqi family does have big problems, but at least Now we are still sitting together drinking instead of fighting with my brother and I carrying weapons. This means that no matter what, your original interests are always good, even if some impure things are mixed in the process. Something." Lin Xian still raised his glass and smiled, "Take raising a child as an example. Can you say that a mother loves her child so hard out of maternal love? There will always be expectations for him to grow up. Is the purpose of feeding yourself back later? Young Master, you are a smart man. You should have seen a lot in a place like the Sheqi Ba Family. Nothing is completely pure, not even the interests and greedy desires that have always been swaying your heart. Bad people driven by desire sometimes mix some conscience into them. Over time, they may not even be able to tell whether they are acting on desire or if their conscience is struggling to support them. Who can really Do you care about the original intention of doing something? What you should really care about is the impact of the process and outcome of the matter!"
Yuan Zhisheng was quiet for a while. In his peripheral vision, the city lights burned brighter and brighter in the strong wind, until the other side of the sky was burned to the same white color. He raised the wine plate and filled it with soju, and then took a sip. And done.
Opposite him, Lin Xian also raised a bowl, but before he could finish the drink, someone grabbed his slender wrist.
Of course, the one who dared to do this was not Yuan Zhisheng beside her, there was probably only one person who could do this.
"Oh, I just drank some wine secretly, and you found out." Lin Xian, who was holding up the bowl, put down the wine helplessly and looked at Lin Nian, who was wearing a black windbreaker from the Executive Bureau, and smiled playfully, "It seems like your friend's Is the matter settled? Why didn’t you invite him over for dinner? The young master is going to have a blood feast tonight to entertain everyone!"
"How much have you drunk?" Lin Nian ignored Lin Xian's change of subject, took back the hand holding her wrist, and glanced at the girl's unstoppable smile on her face because she was tipsy (drunk people love Laughing), then glanced at Yuan Zhisheng who was holding the wine plate and frowned silently.
He took the soju bottle on the table, weighed it, and calculated how much was missing. Finally, he placed the bottle far away from the table and said, "Stop drinking. You're not a good drinker."
"Fortunately, wine can reflect one's ambition." Lin Xian was a little unhappy and continued to secretly turn around to touch the bowl and drink the remaining bits of soju inside. Lin Nian looked at her and didn't try to stop her. He was already quite drunk anyway. , as long as you don’t open two bottles of soju and blow on the bottles when you are happy. He knows that his sister is capable of such things. When she was under great pressure at work, she secretly smoked, drank and did everything, but every time The first time he was caught in the act, he didn't even have the heart to push the door open and poke it open. He quietly ignored her and gave the girl a little favor.
"I won't spoil you now. Girls should be careful outside. Not everyone in this world is a good person. You taught me this before." Lin Nian sat on a futon next to Lin Xian. , right between Yuan Zhisheng and the girl.
"You missed the second half of the sentence!" Lin Xian stretched out his arms and hugged Lin Nian's neck and said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, there are many bad people, except you and my sister." Lin Nian picked up Lin Xian's bowl of wine and took a sip of the remaining soju to check the degree. After finding that the degree was not too high, he felt more at ease. He simply drank the last bit of wine and knocked away the restless white arm behind his back that was trying to reach for the soju bottle behind the futon.
Forced to retreat by the deep love between his siblings, Minamoto Zhisheng slightly adjusted his sitting position, moved one or two futons back, turned his head and looked at the Japanese-style sliding door behind the torii of Xingshen Temple not far away, and put on the shrine maiden uniform. The girl was changing into wooden shoes with the help of her subordinates. Even when she was changing shoes, her eyes would look up here from time to time, eager to rush over and sit at the same table with everyone.
"Is the dinner so sumptuous?"
With Yuan Zhisheng aside, Lin Nian took the initiative to talk.
This should be regarded as the first time since coming to Japan that he and the young master of the family sat together and talked calmly. The words they spoke were not very nutritious, but the best thing about peace was that they would not quarrel over ideas and positions. Eating sashimi requires partisanship.
"I lost the bet with my sister, so naturally we had this dinner. Otherwise, tonight's dinner should be at Chateau Joel Robuchon in Ebisu. Eriki hasn't been very happy since she came back. Originally, she was going to take her to... Eat some delicious food at the restaurant." Yuan Zhisheng said calmly.
"That old-school Michelin three-star restaurant? In our plan, we are planning to go there. The location has been reserved. I heard it is the only restaurant in the world except Paris." Lin Nian picked up the chopsticks on the table and poked them neatly. , reached to the table and picked up the chilled fresh bluefin tuna with chopsticks, put it in a bowl and lightly dipped it in some lemon juice and wasabi soy sauce, "But let's not talk about this first, I am more curious about what you were talking about when I was away. Something interesting?”
"There is no particularly interesting topic." Yuan Zhisheng said (from his perspective, Lin Xian, who was behind Lin Nian, kept reaching out and scratching his neck to indicate that he was 'stuck' on the topic), "I was just nostalgic for some things in the past."
"As a Japanese or a Chinese, how can you remember the past and how your ancestors wrestled in the trenches during World War II?" Lin Nian was suspicious of Yuan's naive excuse.
Yuan Zhisheng did not reply to these provocative words, and took the initiative to turn his eyes away to avoid the topic. This move made Lin Nian's eyes narrow even smaller. His intuition told him that when he was dealing with things, he was always My sister and this young master of our family seemed to be talking about some shameful topic.
"It's just a simple chat. We haven't gone so far as to win over or make promises to the relatives of our students." Yuan Zhisheng explained simply.
"I hope so." Lin Nian paused and suddenly stopped pursuing it. Behind him, Lin Xian breathed a long sigh of relief, but before he could finish breathing out, he found that Lin Nian suddenly turned his head and stared at him, stretched out his hand and pulled She stopped her blushing face and said, "Next time you drink outside when I'm not around, I'll put the bottle in your stomach."
"Um, okay. Wait, you are so bold, you dare to pinch my face." Lin Xian subconsciously agreed after being approached by the fierce brother A, but immediately noticed that there seemed to be a subtle change in his position and status, and immediately He stretched out his hand and grabbed the cheek of the smelly brother, "Your sister, I'll drink some wine and that's it. I'll go out and have a disco. Are you going to smash up all the nightclubs in Tokyo? And where do you put the wine bottle in?" ah?"
Yuan Zhisheng raised his head slightly, as if he was moved by the scene of the deep love between brother and sister. He always thought that whether it was Lin Xian or Lin Nian, the characters who were so spotted by the academy that it was difficult to collect information on Princess Kaguya should have that kind of knife. They seem to be cold and ruthless characters, but now it seems that they are just a pair of ordinary brother and sister, who even quarrel over drinking secretly in private. They are quite full of life.
Being able to have the breath of life in this year should be considered a good thing, a good thing that many people hope for.
He poured himself another glass of wine and looked at Eri, who was running towards her on wooden shoes with a clear clicking sound. The red and white shrine maiden uniform was trailing with red ribbons flying like flowers. He moved beside him. A futon was dragged to a certain position. When the girl came over, she held up the notebook she had prepared in front of the sliding door of the Japanese room and showed it to her brother. What was written on it was: Good evening, brother, and to Lin Nian and Lin Xian. Say hello.
"Good evening. I'm sorry that I haven't been able to come and play with you much these days because I have something to do in the hospital." Lin Nian looked at Eri Yi and nodded with a chuckle.
"Don't be sorry, she has something very important to do these days." Yuan Zhisheng glanced at Lin Nian and said, the latter didn't sneeze at him at all. The two of them accidentally bumped into each other out of the corner of their eyes and noticed that there was nothing on each other's faces. Good expression, not unhappy but not comfortable either.
"I'm not bored, I have my sister to accompany me." Eryi sat on the futon and raised her notebook.
"Do you still play PS games? I thought you were not in tune with gaming in your life. You have to miss me all day when I go to an Internet cafe, saying that I have been playing video games all day, so let me take a break. It's better to play games when I have time. Go read a book." Lin Nian glanced at Lin Xian and said.
"Brothers in the world are all the same. I just say a few words to you and you get annoyed. I just want to see you study hard and study hard. I see you and that guy named Lu going to the Internet cafe to play games all day long." Lin Xian stood up and bent over with the pear clothes in hand. He smiled and thanked Lin Nian with a cup of hot tea brought to him, then looked at Lin Nian and said, "Besides, Erii Chyan and I didn't waste time playing games. Unlike you, we only lead bad girls."
Yuan Zhisheng on the side nodded to himself, drank the wine in the wine plate as if in agreement, then took the soju and poured it for himself.
"Don't think about it. I've finished handling the matter over there, the prisoner has been caught, and the official business is over." Lin Nian sighed and turned his attention back to the table of delicious food. "After that, the prisoner's There should be no problem in leaving the handover procedures to the Sheqi Ba family, right?"
"No problem, but we will interrogate the prisoner first. Things suspected to be 'bones, blood, and horns' appeared in the case. Such things are not something he can get, so we think we can dig out more behind his back. The information we want, there shouldn't be any problem with the headquarters, right?" Minamoto Zhisheng put a piece of shrimp ball on Eri's clothes.
"The interrogation is probably over when you ask this, right? As long as you don't play the person to death, it will be fine." Lin Nian gave Lin Xian a piece of tomato from the cold plate to sober up. He didn't seem to care too much. The torture of the headquarters may not be He is lighter than me. Kindness and gentleness are reserved for those who still have a conscience. Things like Shiraishi Takahiro are not worth speaking for.
"You have to pay a price for what you do. In addition to the commissioner who was injured in this incident, there are many commissioners of this family who have suffered losses at his hands. The rules set by the eight Sheqi families in this land are iron laws, and the rules It is not allowed to deliberately provoke this kind of thing. In the near future, we need to carry out a large-scale killing of chickens to scare monkeys, and Shiraishi Takahiro is the first priority to kill to sacrifice the flag." Minamoto said calmly.
"I don't care much about Shiraishi Takahiro's fate. I care more about the name of the injured commissioner in your mouth is Okubo Ryoichi. He can be regarded as a loyal and hard worker of the Executive Bureau. I also hope that the Director of the Executive Bureau can remember his name." Lin Nian said quietly.
"Forcing the prisoner to reveal his true form, strictly controlling the injuries during the arrest and escape, and also doing his best to save the innocent victim who was harmed by Chi Yu, he deserves no less merit and reward. The Executive Directorate has always been a reward and punishment It is clear that the efficiency may be higher than that of your executive department." Yuan Zhisheng said, "I memorized the names of all my subordinates on the first day I took office on the executive board, and every personnel change will be recorded. , I don’t mention his name just because I don’t want people to think there is any personal relationship in this matter. As a violent organization, it’s better not to have some gentle things. You should understand this better than me.”
"But this matter was originally a personal matter. If you hadn't reported his name on the phone, the three of us would still be playing at the Ultraman Theme Park now," Lin Nian said.
There are several Chinese exits in Ultraman Park. Eri, who doesn't understand Mandarin very well and has been quietly eating dinner, has her ears perked up for no reason. She puts down her chopsticks and her eyes are full of "I'm very interested. Please follow this topic."
"All in all, the matter was resolved completely. There were no more accidents, or the spread of casualties and impacts. Just for this, I need to toast you, in the name of the Eight Sheqi Family, and in the name of the Director of the Executive Bureau." Yuan Zhi Sheng didn't want to argue about this issue anymore and poured himself some wine. Then he stood up from his knees and poured tea for Lin Nian.
Looking at the expressionless man pouring himself water, Lin Nian sat down and took the tea, clinking the cup with him and drinking in silence.
After drinking tea and wine, it can be regarded as settling the friendship of this temporary cooperation.
The 'S' class of our headquarters and the 'Emperor' of our family still need to be clear about some aspects. There can be personal relationships between our headquarters and our family, but between the two of them, this kind of relationship is much more sensitive. Therefore, it is better to talk about some things first and secondly, and to be clear about the situation, so as to prevent those above from being sentimental and stirring up nerves and doing things that will make both parties irritated.
After finishing the drink, Yuan Zhisheng put down the wine plate and wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Then let's take this opportunity to talk about business. What are your plans next?"
