Chapter 17: Searching for Kusanagi Sasuke
As Fang Lin was riding the elevator up, he learned about the current situation of the Kawashima family from the guard, so he immediately made a temporary judgment. What he wrote down at this time was the information about Longlang's participation in the competition recorded in the Kagura family's files. If it were to be restored, it was Longlang's cosmic phantom that destroyed the bridge piers of the approach bridge and caused the entire bridge to break. This is an irrefutable fact. If the police continue to investigate in this way, they will definitely feel that they are getting closer and closer to the truth, just like a dog that has bitten a bone and refuses to give up, so they will naturally keep a close watch on the group of people who were chosen.
Fang Lin shaking out the dead Longlang can be said to be a good thing that kills three birds with one stone.
First, it can relieve the pressure on the police from the Kawashima family of Katsutsugi Ou, so that they can free up their hands to do their best for themselves.
Second, it can cause a lot of trouble to the group of people who were chosen. After all, in order to avoid "killing each other" with them, Longlang wrote in the information that they were from the same group.
Third, Longlang is a dead person, and a dead person will not come out to defend himself. Even the Chosen Alliance will not make a big fuss for a dead person, so he is the best target for blaming.
After sending the police away, Sheng Cixiong solved a major problem at present. His business was messed up by this group of police and his income was sharply reduced. He was very grateful to Fang Lin. In addition, Fang Lin's badge level was quite high, and he could be regarded as a special envoy from the headquarters. He was originally a person who deserved a good reception. So after Fang Lin made his request to him, Sheng Cixiong immediately mobilized people to do it.
Fang Lin's request was to find someone:
Find the whereabouts of a tall and thin man dressed as a priest in a blue priest robe. This person can be called Goenitz, or Storm. On the surface, he looks very kind and pure, doesn't like to talk, and speaks modestly.
Find the whereabouts of two women named Mai Zhuo and Wei Sidi. One of the two women has long blond hair, and the other has short black hair. Both are wearing revealing long-legged stockings and dresses.
Find the whereabouts of the last champion of KOF95, Kyo Kusanagi, and the whereabouts of Kyo Kusanagi's father, Shibazu Kusanagi.
The people that Fang Lin is looking for are all powerful people who can stir up a huge storm in the KOF world by stomping their feet.
Goenitz is the ultimate boss who appeared at the last KOF96 conference.
Mai Zhuo and Weiss are the secretaries of Rugal (the ultimate boss of 95, 98, 2002), but in fact they are tools sent by the Heavenly Kingdom to monitor Rugal. They are also one of the Eight Heroes. The reason why they condescended to be Rugal's secretary is to monitor Rugal who attempted to seize the dark power of the Orochi clan, and appeared with Yagami in the 96 King of Fighters Conference according to the instructions of the head of the Orochi clan, with the purpose of monitoring Yagami.
However, since Yagami himself also has the blood of Orochi, after encountering the storm, Yagami Iori's blood went wild, and Mai Zhuo and Weiss were knocked down. Their lives and deaths are unknown. They only appear in the plotless KOF98 and KOF2002. From the plot point of view, they have disappeared from the world of KOF since then.
In other words, if you want to meet them face to face, you can only appear in KOF96. Similar to them are the three kings of darkness: the dry earth, the wild lightning, and the Chris of control. After awakening, these three people only appeared briefly in the world of KOF97, and it is extremely difficult to have an intersection with them.
Kusanagi Shibafu is the father of Kusanagi Kyo, and a strong man who has mastered a strong fighting force. He was controlled by Rugal of KOFSS and was seriously injured after being defeated by Kusanagi Kyo. He should be recuperating in a hospital or a sanatorium now.
Although the names of these people are almost well-known to the reincarnationists, they are not worth mentioning in the eyes of people like Katsutsugi. Just like you can't expect Wang Shi/Chen Tianqiao/Zhu Jun and others to know the names of the 2009 National Sanda Champions. However, since Fang Lin has given the order, of course the Kawashima family dare not ignore it. His huge forces immediately mobilized to search for the people Fang Lin requested from both the white and black sides.
Less than forty minutes later, Katsutsugi sent a message back to Fang Lin that one of the targets had been found. Kusanagi Shibafu is living in the intensive care unit of DJ University Affiliated Hospital. Fang Lin wanted this news. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that he had not yet tried to have close contact with the Heavenly Kingdom God Clan such as Baofeng and the Kusanagi family was not alert, and quickly contact the Kusanagi family to obtain information about the Lieyang Gloves.
……………
After getting a Porsche 911 from the Kawashima family, Fang Lin drove onto the highway. This was not his first time here, and the entire topographic map had long been ingrained in his mind. It was almost like a living GPS. The National Hospital affiliated to DJ University is not only famous in DJ, but also in the entire RB. Although the Kusanagi family has always been low-key, it has its own deep-rooted heritage after thousands of years of inheritance. Although Kusanagi Shibafu spends a lot of money every day in this intensive care unit, it can certainly support it.
Fang Lin held a flower basket in his hand, dressed very decently, and said to the receptionist at the door in a gentle and refined manner:
"Hello, I want to visit Mr. Kusanagi Shibafu in the intensive care unit. Can you please tell me which ward he is in?"
The receptionist had a very good impression of Fang Lin and immediately smiled and said:
"Okay, please wait for me to check first."
Less than three minutes later, the receptionist said with difficulty:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Kusanagi Shibafu has only accepted visits from a few specific people since he was admitted to the hospital. You don't seem to be one of them."
"Oh?" Fang Lin said with regret, "But I came to visit him with sincerity. Can you tell me who he only accepts visits from?"
The receptionist was about to refuse, but suddenly she felt that the skin between the eyebrows of the man in front of her seemed to be twisted, and his eyes became extremely deep. For a moment, his whole mind seemed to sink deeply into it as if falling into a well. He immediately flipped through the memo book unconsciously and said:
"Well, the list of people allowed to be visited is: Mr. Sakazaki Takuma (Sakazaki Ryo's father), Mr. Kusanagi Kyo, Mr. Nikaido Benimaru, Mr. Daimon Goro, Mr. Inoue Heiji (ordinary person, childhood friend of Kusanagi Shibafu). The rest of the people need to make an appointment in advance."
Fang Lin's eyes flashed, and then continued:
"Then can you tell me the number of Mr. Kusanagi Shibafu's ward?"
The receptionist immediately said without hesitation:
"It is in the sanatorium behind the hospital, Villa No. 7."
"Thank you." Fang Lin smiled and stuffed a stack of tips into her hand. The method he used at this time was a weakened version of mental control with the help of the amplification of the Fool's Eye, which was similar to hypnosis. There is no extreme side effect of the powerful magic charm that will definitely die if you are charmed. It is considered to be wandering around the rules of the nightmare space and playing a marginal ball. Although the receptionist still vaguely remembered some things after she came to her senses, she knew that she had violated the rules and received benefits equivalent to several months' salary. Naturally, she made a fortune in silence and would not admit it no matter who asked.
The scale of the National Hospital Affiliated to DJ University is quite large. The inpatient department alone is divided into three major sections: the sanatorium, the inpatient area, and the rehabilitation area. Kusanagi Shibasu lives in Villa No. 7 in the sanatorium. Next to it is a carefully piled rockery, with hollow green bamboo joints to attract spring water dripping. Next to it is a calm lake, where you can watch the water and fish in the wind in your spare time. It is really a beautiful scenery.
To enter the sanatorium, you need to pass through four guards, but for Fang Lin, it is a very simple thing to deceive their ears and eyes. After he fell from the wall next to him, he deliberately restrained his breath and prepared to meet Kusanagi Shibasu, who is also a legendary plot powerhouse.
Before coming here, Fang Lin had considered killing Kusanagi Shibafu, and he was quite sure of it. But first of all, considering that he had returned to this relatively low-level world, his chance of death would be greatly reduced. If he killed Kusanagi Shibafu, who was seriously injured in the plot, his chance of death would be very low. Not only that, he would also be hunted down by the Kusanagi Kyo trio, and he would not be able to participate in the KOF96 conference. Therefore, Fang Lin usually would not consider such a thing that would outweigh the benefits.
Villa No. 7 was quiet, but there was not even a sound of breathing. Fang Lin sighed in disappointment. It seemed that Kusanagi Shibafu was not here. He nimbly rushed in from the window at the back and found that the ward was quite tidy, the quilt was neatly folded, and there were water marks in the flower pots next to it, which obviously had been irrigated not long ago. This kind of precious flower will easily die if it is irrigated with ordinary methods, and the pipe next to it is slightly warm, so it can be basically confirmed that Kusanagi Shibafu has just left.
Fang Lin's eyes stayed on the table, where there was a black and white photo. The person in the photo looks quite similar to Iori Yagami, but his nose is in the shape of an eagle hook, which makes the whole person look very sinister. And there are a few pieces of pine wood with pine/bamboo/chrysanthemum patterns scattered on the ground next to it.
Fang Lin was slightly startled. It turned out that this special pine wood was used in Japanese customs to set up soul shrines, light the welcoming and sending soul fires, and worship ancestors. He looked at the photo carefully again and confirmed the identity of this person. Thinking of the grievances between the Kusanagi family and the Yagami family, he knew where Kusanagi Shibafu went with his illness.
It was to worship the grave of Iori Yagami's father, Yagami Light!
