The Cheshire Cat spoke rather harshly, but she still had a heartless smile on her face—even more obvious than before.
That smile, rather than joy, looked more like some kind of scar—
"You don't have much empathy for your own people—"
"I'm not one of them. Even if my true identity were revealed, even if my life in my country was similar to theirs, they would still treat me as a surveillance system—a living surveillance system—"
The Cheshire Cat formed two circles with his hands and placed them in front of his eyes.
He placed the two circles in front of his eyes gently on his neck and made a neck-cutting motion.
"Those are a bunch of guys who don't take me seriously, and I certainly don't take them seriously either. Anyway, rather than saying they're suspicious of me or hate me, it's better to say their eyes are empty."
The Cheshire Cat held his chin in his hand. "I see. Now that we've come to this, I actually understand you a little better, Miss Chu Shangli. You're not wrong at all. I initially thought this was useless information, but it turned out to be much more useful than I thought. It also confirmed a guess I had given up long ago."
"What guess?"
"Ah, what is this speculation? Miss Chu Shangli, haven't you heard it before?"
"I've heard of that...?"
The Cheshire Cat and Chu Shangli had only known each other for less than a day. Although they had said a lot, it was not so much that they could not remember it.
But after quickly reviewing what the Cheshire Cat had said, she was shocked by so much that she didn't know which one was the Cheshire Cat's true meaning.
"Huh? Could it be that I've said so much that you can't tell which one is my guess?"
“…”
Chu Shangli gave a dry laugh.
"Well, that's it. That—I think my mother faked her death, didn't I? It's about that part—even though she died a long time ago, I don't think she's truly dead. She was either trying to avoid trouble or to try and make mistakes. Maybe now she's disguised herself and blending in with the crowd. Even if she came up with some immortality research product, I wouldn't be surprised at all. Although I don't think she had a strong desire to live, she did have a strong ambition. Ambition can control a person's immortality..."
"Ah, I did say that before..."
Chu Shangli was a little puzzled: "Why are you suddenly bringing this up now? What does this have to do with what I just said?"
"Well, I don't think a normal person would do something so crazy - if someone did, then I think it would probably be my mother. And for such a crazy act, if it was done by someone else, I don't think the six major families would have no reaction - so, it turns out that my mother, who has the leverage over each of them, has made a comeback. Especially when Miss Chu Moyin went crazy - she has almost wiped out the six major families, so my mother's deterrent power is even greater - maybe she would have had some scruples before, but after that, there was no need for her to scruples at all - so the efforts of the six major families, plus the contributions of Miss Chu Moyin, can be easily taken away by her..."
The Cheshire Cat's fingers flicked, as if pulling down an air mouse—
"Hmm, it's just as I thought—" The Cheshire Cat raised his lips, "Technology that can completely cure blindness and myopia—this is a great opportunity... Mother will definitely not let it go..."
