Chapter 164 A Dramatic Meeting
It was pouring rain.
On this typhoon night, street lights in many places had been completely destroyed. The car was driving on the road in the dark, and the headlights emitted a dim light.
"How is it, have you contacted Zhi?"
Sitting in the back seat of the car, turning his eyes away from the wind and rain outside, Uesugi Yue asked.
"Sorry, sir, due to the typhoon and rain, the signal here is quite poor."
While driving the car with one hand, the black suit sitting in the driver's seat answered in a deep voice.
"But three hours ago, we contacted Miss Eri. According to the information sent by Miss Eri, the eldest lady did go out during that time period."
"What about the situation on the elevated road?"
Uesugi Yue frowned, which was barely detectable.
"The local mixed-blood forces are involved. Our people can't find out too much, but what is certain is that more than two hours ago, there were indeed traces of Nibelungen there. It can be confirmed that what happened there is related to the eldest lady."
"...Can you find out where they rented the house?"
"The Peacock Mansion on the edge of the east city. Miss Jiude didn't deliberately hide this when she rented the house."
"Turn around, we won't go to the elevated road, but turn to the Peacock Mansion."
After a little hesitation, Shangshan Yue quickly made a decision.
About an hour ago, not all, but almost half of the mixed-bloods in the city had personally observed the scarlet phenomenon that appeared in the sky.
Although the phenomenon lasted less than ten minutes before and after, some people with a keen eye quickly launched an investigation in this regard. Although there was still a typhoon and heavy rain, these things obviously couldn't stop those people.
Others may not know what that strange phenomenon is, but Shangshan Yue knows it very well. Such a symbolic domain can only be opened by Zhi.
Originally, he planned to sneak back to the Eight Snakes tonight. After all, he, the head of the family, sneaked out secretly. If he left for a short time, it would be fine. If he left for a long time, it would be difficult to explain.
But since he heard about this from other people, he immediately gave up the idea of going back. He rushed to the scene with a knife in his hand, wanting to help his precious daughter.
Zhi had shown him the domain of sealing. It was a technique that covered the area and isolated the cause and effect of the world. Ordinary people could neither enter nor see that domain. Only hybrids could do that.
Usually, the most worrying thing in the execution bureau was that those runaway ghosts or deadpools rushed into the crowd and caused great damage and casualties, but after Zhi developed that technique, the casualties of ordinary people were greatly reduced.
... Want to take those ordinary people as hostages? You also need someone to be your hostage.
In that area, all ordinary people were isolated, leaving only those hybrids, so there was no need to worry about accidentally hurting innocent people.
What was even more amazing was that in that area called the Sealed Area, even if it was destroyed, Zhi could restore it completely, further reducing financial losses.
In the previous internal meeting, he was actually a little conservative. Since Zhi developed that technique, as long as she took action, the casualty rate and property loss rate were reduced to zero.
The only drawback was that this technique was not easy to hide. Once the Sealed Area was launched, in addition to ordinary people who could not see it, those hybrids outside the Sealed Area could see the area clearly.
Because of this defect, Zhi generally would not choose to open the Sealed Area unless it was necessary.
... In other words, when Zhi opened the Sealed Area, it must be when she was caught in a battle that had to be opened.
This inference became a fact when he received the information from Eri.
It was precisely because of this that Uesugi Yue's heart was in a knot throughout the night...
Although he wanted to contact Jude Mai to ask what happened, the other party's phone was not connected due to the weather.
With all these factors, it was hard for Uesugi Yue not to have wild thoughts. At this time, he put on a black windbreaker and carried a long sword on his back, full of murderous intent, waiting for any demons to appear in front of him, and then he would cut them with one sword.
"Head, here we are."
Just as Uesugi Yue was brewing murderous intent in his heart, the voice of the black suit in the driver's seat came over, and at the same time, the black car that cut through the rain slowly stopped in front of a villa.
"There are lights in the villa, I think the young lady and the others should have returned safely."
"It's best to come back... Let's go, let's go visit."
After exhaling a little, Uesugi Yue opened the car door and stepped into the heavy rain outside.
——Before he got out of the car, the man in the black suit was already standing by the car door with a big black umbrella.
Perhaps because he was in a hurry, the outer door of the villa was not closed, so it was very relaxed. Uesugi Yue and the man in the black suit next to him came to the door of the villa.
Looking at the warm light coming from the floor-to-ceiling windows of the villa, after adjusting his collar uncomfortably, Uesugi Yue reached out and knocked on the door.
Listening to the footsteps coming from the door, he had already thought of the reasons to explain to Zhi later.
As a father, it is reasonable for me to care about my daughter's safety. I just happened to come to China on a business trip, and happened to stay in this city to rest for a night, so...
Looking at the open door in front of him, he pulled the corner of his mouth and tried to show a kind smile on his face.
...Then the next moment, the smile on his face froze there.
Inside the opened door, the boy wrapped in a bathrobe looked at him with horror. With a sudden gust of wind from the outside, a corner of the bathrobe was lifted by chance.
——The guy in front of him was not wearing anything except this bathrobe.
Uesugi Yue: “………”
Imagine that when you have made repeated mental preparations and come to your daughter’s door to tell her to protect herself, you find a man wearing only a bathrobe to open the door for you…
What’s more, yesterday, I met my daughter’s online boyfriend, and I deliberately beat him up, but only one day later, he gave me a blow…Uesugi Yue suddenly felt that his blood pressure was rising.
He took a deep breath, and facing the horrified eyes of the young man in front of him, Uesugi Yue slowly pulled out the two long swords on his waist, and then showed a very kind smile to the other party.
“Seppuku or beheading, you choose it yourself.”
Lu Mingfei: “!!!”
“………”
Looking at the scene in front of him, the man in the black suit silently put away his umbrella and turned around.
…At the same time, he covered his ears.
