Kui Kui has the fate of a snake immortal, born with heavenly eyes that can see between yin and yang.
However, her immortal status was borrowed from her father; she was never meant to exist in...
Kui Kui stepped onto the chair, leaped up, and landed behind Higashino Yoshi.
After landing with perfect stability, he delivered a karate chop to the back of his neck.
"Ugh..." Higashino Yoshi let out a soft groan and immediately fainted.
Xiaobai and Kuikui teamed up to quickly destroy all the paper figures hidden in Higashino Yoshi's pockets.
After regaining his freedom, the first thing Li Qizheng did was kneel down and apologize to Xia Tian.
Xia Tian touched her slightly stinging lips and helped him up.
“I don’t blame you. I know you were controlled by Higashino. But as the project manager, you failed to conduct a proper background check, and you can’t escape responsibility.”
Li Qizheng, who had just breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the first half of the sentence, broke out in a cold sweat after hearing the second half.
Xia Tian continued, "Of course, as the chairman of Xiaji Group, I also have an unshirkable responsibility."
"Uncle Xia, the man has been subdued. The rest is up to you."
As she spoke, Kui Kui walked toward Higashino Tomohisa, whose expression was complicated.
He couldn't believe that his family's ancestral puppetry technique had been broken, but he felt quite satisfied seeing his rebellious son, Higashino Yoshi, get beaten up.
He looked up at Kui Kui and said, "Little girl, do me a favor, and I'll teach you the Dongye family's puppetry techniques, how about it?"
Little White returned to its original size, hanging around Kui Kui's neck, and said disdainfully, "Who wants this piece of junk from your family! It's not even strong enough to withstand a beating!"
Tomohisa Higashino glared angrily and said, "That's because that bastard Kichiro Higashino is bad at his craft!"
"Puppetry is a complex art. It can not only control puppets and manipulate people through them, but also allow the soul to leave the body and travel thousands of miles a day using paper figures as a medium."
"They can even use puppetry to seize another person's body!"
Tomohisa Higashino became more and more excited as he spoke, rubbing his hands together and saying, "Little girl, do you want to learn?"
Kui Kui shook his head. "I'm not interested in harmful spells."
"What do you mean by harmful curses! The puppetry of my Dongye family was originally for the purpose of entertaining the public and protecting puppet dolls from the invasion of wandering ghosts."
"There is no good or bad in magic; it depends on the person using it."
"Like a knife, in the hands of a chef it is a tool for cooking delicious food; in the hands of a wicked person it is a weapon for harming others."
Kui Kui frowned slightly and said, "But your puppetry hurt my classmate. I just want to know, was this your doing or Higashino Yoshi's?"
Tomohisa Higashino instinctively wanted to deny it, after all, he had never used puppetry to harm anyone in his life.
But upon closer reflection, his eyes immediately dimmed, and he lowered his head, readily admitting it.
“It was me. The remaining thirty-four dolls in the shop, I reversed the spell, turning the protective spell into a curse.”
"My goal is to thwart the cooperation between Ji and Xiaji Group. Therefore, I do not have the most vicious curse. The owner of the doll will suffer bloodshed, but will not be in mortal danger."
"If they're lucky, these kids might run into Xia Ji's CEO, and they'll gang up on him."
He gave a wry smile and continued, "Of course, I didn't expect to have that kind of luck."
"What would happen if we attacked him en masse? Are you going to kill him?"
Tomohisa Higashino suddenly raised his head and immediately denied it, saying, "No! I just wanted him to know that the Higashino family's craftsmanship is not something anyone can take!"
Kui Kui recalled Wang Duoyu and Li Ke'er; the former had bumped her head and the latter had broken her arm, but neither was in mortal danger.
As for Xia Tian, she intervened in time, and nothing unexpected happened.
"But you still hurt them."
“One of the girls really liked the dolls you made. She spent a lot of money to buy them, but they became the tool you used to prevent cooperation.”
Tomohisa Higashino lowered his head, feeling extremely guilty.
Whether it's the puppetry of the Higashino family or the craft of making dolls, the original intention was to bring happiness and joy to people.
He hated his son, thinking him greedy and greedy, but unknowingly used the doll as a tool for revenge, becoming the person he hated most.
He sighed and said, "I made a mistake. I don't need you to do anything for me anymore. I'll pass on the puppetry technique to you!"
"In the third drawer of my bedside table, there is a wooden box containing the secret manual of puppetry."
"Little girl, don't be so quick to refuse! Times are changing too fast, and many spells have disappeared into the long river of history."
"You don't want to see puppetry disappear, do you?"
Seeing that Kui Aoi remained unmoved, Higashino Tomohisa lowered his stance even further.
"I'm begging you, please? If you really don't want to learn, find an opportunity to pass it on to someone who is destined to learn it. Don't let it rot here."
"What do you want me to do for you? As long as it's not immoral or against the law, I'll do my best to help you within my capabilities."
Tomohisa Higashino didn't react for a moment. After a three-second pause, he asked with delight, "You're willing to learn?"
Kui Kui nodded slightly.
Having many skills is never a bad thing.
The more spells you learn, the more chances you have to survive.
