Chapter 138
"Karu Devonshire is the first royal family member of the Devonshire family. He owns and controls a far larger puppet-related trafficking chain than other nobles. Under his rule, the people are becoming more and more obsessed with puppets. He once said: puppets will be the most loyal servants of mankind."
Yun Jinchu finished reading this slowly, then looked up at Nogai, the president of the Dollmaker Association, who was sitting opposite him, and said calmly, "I have collected a lot of information about the Golden Age of Dolls and the Doll Riots, and I found that no matter when dolls were just emerging, or the Golden Age of Dolls, or the Doll Riots and the sudden revival now... all of them actually have the shadow of the royal family."
"I think if you insist on asking me to serve as vice president again, some secrets will no longer be suitable to be hidden from me."
After she finished speaking, she looked calmly into Nogai's old eyes. Her silent but firm stance during the confrontation forced the other party to give in.
The chaos during this period seemed to be particularly exhausting, so much so that Nogai, who used to look quite energetic, seemed to have aged ten years overnight, and the light in his eyes became somewhat listless.
Faced with the young figure maker's uncompromising attitude, he was angry and embarrassed, but after thinking for a moment, he let out a dejected sigh.
Yunmian sat next to her mother, holding a ball of visible colorful silk threads in her hands, and was learning how to use these colorful strings to weave a beautiful bracelet. Her mother had weaved one for her a few days ago, and now she was wearing it on her slender white wrist. As her wrist turned, it looked particularly eye-catching and beautiful.
When it heard the sigh of President Nogai, it also raised its eyes and looked at him, but its gaze was fixed directly on the other's heart.
Ever since it hooked the silk thread and cut Lin Qi's heart into pieces, it has never been soft-hearted towards the other two people.
I guess Nogai and the second young master of the Lance family must have had a very hard time during this period. After all, their hearts may spasm and twitch at any time, but they can't find anything wrong with them when they go to the hospital. They take a lot of medicine and do a lot of tests, but the pain in their hearts is getting more and more intense and they feel panic...
Yunmian had never experienced this, but several soul fragments in its heart had experienced it. Their crystal sources were dissected, smashed and cut by those humanoid masters, who tried their best to know the special reasons for the crystal sources. But in the end, they were discarded and destroyed along with their broken bodies, so they became some broken souls.
Nogai noticed the puppet's gaze, but his mind was focused on the conversation with Yun Jinchu, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. Instead, he thought about his words.
"I've always known that you're a smart person." He said to Yun Jinchu, "I believe you've tried to find out the secrets behind the puppet riot, but the news was completely blocked by the royal family... I can only tell you that the riot was actually a way for the royal family to eliminate dissidents. Those puppets that hurt the nobles were actually all under the control of the royal family. As for how they controlled the puppets, I don't know."
After hearing this secret that could be called a "king bomb", Yun Jinchu just twitched his eyebrows in surprise, then looked at the sighing Nogai and said firmly: "I think there should be more than just this reason, right?"
They are just nobles. Even if the royal authorities cannot completely control all the nobles, they will not put all the blame on the puppets, go to great lengths to eliminate the life puppets and puppeteers, and decisively cut off all inheritance related to the life puppets.
Logically, it cannot form a closed loop, there must be some more critical reason.
Nogai was surprised at her sharpness and originally wanted to brush it off as he had done before, but at this moment, he felt a familiar pain in his heart again.
Nogai suddenly arched his back, and covered his heart tightly with his hands, which was beating rapidly due to the pain. A fear of the unknown and death flashed in his eyes.
Looking at the young and promising dollmaker standing with his back straight opposite him, he had to admit that he seemed to be really old. Was he willing to take those secrets and regrets into the grave?
No, I won't accept that!
He coughed twice, and after the faint pain in his heart slowly subsided, he took a deep breath and panted and said slowly: "Yes, there is a more crucial reason..."
"Because of our Dollmaker Association, a special doll appeared."
When he said this, he clenched his fists tightly, stared at Yun Jinchu with red eyes, and said in a deep voice: "That puppet should have been the wealth of our Doll Artist Association's rise! But because we were completely defenseless against the royal family and the nobles, the puppet became the source of unrest in the eyes of the royal family! It was executed, and the reason given was ridiculous: the puppet wanted to establish its own empire, completely break away from humans, and subvert the status of humans..."
"But that puppet was only born less than a week ago. It's still just a baby puppet. It can't even speak like a human. How could it be the source of a riot?!"
Yun Jinchu didn't know about this history, as it was well buried by someone with ulterior motives.
But after listening to what Nogai said, things are still a little unclear.
Yun Jinchu frowned and asked, "What is so special about it?"
In response to this question, Nogai could only shake his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't know either. Those who knew about this matter have been strangled to death. The top leaders of the Humanoid Artists Association were all executed, and all the puppets made by the Humanoid Artists were destroyed.
I only found out about this by chance through a letter left many years ago, but the letter said that the Doll Makers Association had not yet figured out the specialness of that doll, because that young doll was originally a boy-love doll specially made for the nobility..."
Having said that, he subconsciously glanced at the little puppet Yun Mian beside Yun Jinchu, and when he found that the puppet was not listening to him, he breathed a sigh of relief silently.
There was a hint of sarcasm and coldness in Yun Jinchu's eyes.
Nogai's heart ached again. He covered his chest to ease the pain and reiterated his purpose: "You were raised by the Humanoid Maker Association. Although the Lance family intervened last time, the situation is different this time. They will not have other opinions to embarrass you. I promise you: as long as you lead the Humanoid Maker Association to rise again, the position of president will only belong to you in the future."
The Doll Maker Association is now being held accountable by the outside world and the nobles and royal families because of Lin Qi's accidental death and the disappearance of the two life dolls. At this critical moment, Nogai can only let Yun Jinchu go back to continue to lead the association.
After all, she has enough ability, and her character and skills are not bad. Except that she is not very good at playing tricks with the upper class, she is simply the best role model among the options.
After hearing his "earnest" words, Yun Jinchu thought for a moment, but still rejected him.
"The current Humanoid Artist Association is completely controlled by the nobility and the royal family. I don't think the president or vice president can resist the suppression of power and status."
Yun Jinchu said to Nuo Gai, who looked obviously unhappy after being rejected, "Instead of kowtow to the powerful, it is better to live freely. You know, I have promised a long time ago that I will not make any more life dolls. So even if I go back now, I will face countless doubts in the future. There is no need for me to torture myself."
"You, how can you be so ungrateful?!" Nuo Gai pointed at her nose and wanted to scold her, but Yun Jinchu had already made a gesture to see him off and waited for him to leave in silence.
It seems that those who fail to achieve their goals always like to say something harsh like "You will regret it" at the end, and even Nogai is no exception.
However, just like she treated Yuen Lang Lance, Yun Jinchu did not take his harsh words to heart. After watching him leave, she was able to calmly teach her daughter how to weave bracelets.
Yunmian finally managed to weave a crooked bracelet and couldn't wait to put it on her mother's wrist.
While putting on the suit, he stood up for his mother: "That old man is so rude! Mom, let's not talk to him anymore."
In children’s simple worldview, pointing at others is the most impolite behavior!
Yun Jinchu responded softly and looked down at the colorful bracelet her daughter was wearing on her wrist.
It's a little ugly and a little tight on the hand, but that doesn't stop it from being woven bit by bit by the child himself, nor does it stop it from being the first small gift that Yunmian gave to her mother.
Yunmian hugged her mother's arm with a great sense of accomplishment. She raised her own wrist, which was also tied with a braided bracelet, and pressed her hands against her mother's. The two hands, one big and one small, were pressed together, and no one would move away first.
There are many couple styles, brothers styles, bestie styles, and even celebrity styles in the world, but here at Yunmian, these two bracelets are unique mother-daughter styles!
Apart from myself and my mother, there will be no other person or doll in the world who has such a precious gift!
She even showed it off to all the puppets she knew.
To the puppet souls in the crystal source, he said: "My mother made this by herself. When you use my body in the future, be careful not to lose it, and don't get it dirty or wet, otherwise I will no longer be your good friend."
Everyone: ...Why are you so arrogant? We are puppets who are dozens or hundreds of years old. Do we care about a few broken ropes in your hands?
I took a photo and sent it to Miya to show off: "Isn't this bracelet super beautiful? My mother made it for me personally, and she made it just for me, a doll. I want to wear it and live a long life with my mother!"
Miya: "...If I remember correctly, a long life should be a short-lived curse for the doll?"
Through his inner voice, he conveyed to the two puppets, Lu Ling and Lu Yin: "I will come to play with you in a few days. Do you want to think about how to praise it in advance? It is really beautiful! My mother is so amazing. She must be the most magical fairy among the puppet makers!"
Lu Ling, Lu Yin: ...I suddenly have no expectations for the upcoming meeting. You actually let the puppet think in advance about how to praise the handicraft of a doll artist? ? ?
I began to have reason to doubt whether the heart of this doll was still gray-black.
Coincidentally, Yun Jinchu was also doubting this.
After listening to Nogai's words, she was originally planning to conduct a deeper investigation into the first royal family and all subsequent related nodes, but as she was looking through the information, she thought of the crystal source that she had personally placed into her daughter's body.
In the distant history, the puppets did not seem to have gray-black hearts at first. Mia's heart was red. Some marginal information also said that the puppets' hearts seemed to gradually undergo some strange changes.
After such a long time, would Yunmian's heart have changed?
Yes, this is actually a decrypted copy (bushi)!
