Chapter 53
Although it was called a hospitality, the attitude of those so-called senior executives was extremely arrogant.
Kamado Kenryu was curious about the situation outside, so he agreed to Kamo Yotaro's request and got into his car.
Kamo Yotaro carefully drove him out of the secluded village and headed towards Tokyo, until he stopped at a hidden torii gate somewhere on the outskirts of Tokyo.
The entire journey was smooth and peaceful. It took Kamo Yotaro almost 3 hours to drive and he passed through several peaceful and quiet urban areas along the way.
Apart from those invisible cursed spirits, Shen Du Jianliu can already confirm that this world is very normal and its overall operation is relatively stable.
This characteristic of the world means that "despair" is often associated with cursed spirits.
In other words, they are likely to appear on the sorcerer.
It seems that I really need to get in touch with the world of sorcery, and pay close attention to Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru mentioned in the barrage.
"Master Shendu, I will go in and report first!"
When the two of them reached the torii gate, Kamo Yotaro ran in hurriedly, but... when he came out, his face was full of guilt and panic.
Because the elders did not immediately agree for them to go in now.
After waiting outside for 20 minutes, a person in traditional kimono came out of the house and motioned for the two people to come in.
Since Kamo Yutaro was very anxious and nervous during this period...
He even kept observing the white-haired boy's expression (even though he couldn't see anything), fearing that the other party would lose patience and turn around and leave in anger. If that happened, he, the worker who was caught in the middle and delivering the message, would definitely break down and cry, revealing a look of despair.
Shen Du Jianliu read the other party's mood.
He did not make things difficult for the other party, but stood there obediently, calming Kamo Yotaro's emotions.
Following the kimono-clad woman who looked like a servant into the depths of the torii, a group of old men were sitting behind a barrier, casting scrutinizing eyes on the white-haired boy from top to bottom.
"Shendujianliu."
The old man in the lead had a majestic voice, and his rough and hoarse tone seemed to contain a mouthful of old phlegm.
The other party didn't waste any words and said directly through the Japanese-style barrier: "I didn't ask you to come here for anything else."
"We want you to assassinate Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru."
【……】
【? ? ? ? 】
[Go to hell, rotten orange, I'm serious, these old stubborn people deserve to die]
[You showed off your power to our Liu Bao as soon as you arrived, making us wait outside for so long, and you still want Liu Bao to do things for you? ? 】
[I'm numb. I really can't expect anything from these rotten oranges]
[A Liu, don’t listen to them!] Rotten Orange threw all the tasks to the students, overwhelming them, and now he even wants to kill them.]
Shen Du Jian Liu didn't say anything.
In fact, he didn't need to say anything as voices of opposition came from behind the barrier opposite the old man.
“No!”
"This outsider cannot be trusted for now, and I'm afraid he is a 0-technique."
"How can a useless person without any spells or magical powers possibly kill a kid from the Gojo family? It will only alert the enemy and increase the conflict!"
"Have you forgotten about Zen Yuan Shen'er?" Another old man spoke up at this moment and joined the melee: "The Sorcerer Killer, Tian and Zhu Fu, are the natural enemies of that kid——"
"But Zenin Shinji has been killed by that kid from the Gojo family, right?!"
Shen Du Jian Liu: "..."
"quiet!"
"We have already discussed this impromptu, so there is no need to argue now."
The old man in the lead raised his voice and stopped the escalating argument in time.
When the room was quiet, he looked at Shen Du Jian Liu again, with an arrogant attitude that could not be refused, and said as if giving alms: "Three days ago, my assistant accidentally discovered your live broadcast."
"In order to avoid causing panic, I asked the relevant departments to block the live broadcast link on the same day."
"Through your live broadcast, we are fully aware that Geto Suguru will defect, and Gojo Satoru will lead the students to rebel against us."
The old man's voice was muddy but mixed with a sense of authority. Rather than a discussion, it sounded more like an order that the listener had to obey.
"Kill them both, and the reward is in billions, which you can set as you like."
“This is what I am waiting for.”
"Of course, I will also send some helpers to assist you in the assassination. It would be best if you can find a more appropriate and obvious reason."
Kamado Kenryu, who was standing opposite, maintained a calm expression and did not respond.
He is thinking.
Is it more convenient to use his talent to convince them and join the world of sorcery, or is it more convenient to just kill these people on the spot?
If you choose the latter, there won't be a problem as long as you make sure they die without any pain.
However, if the upper echelons of the magic world suddenly fall apart, it will definitely lead to short-term or long-term turmoil and chaos.
I have just arrived in this world, and I am not clear about their internal structure or the high-level families they have. I cannot guarantee that I can handle the aftermath without any mistakes.
The latter passes first.
In any case, he will not move Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru mentioned in the barrage.
Not only that, you also need to pay close attention.
The room fell silent again. An old lady seemed to be unable to hold back and said disapprovingly: "There are only three special-grade sorcerers in Japan now."
"Kujuku Yuki doesn't accept missions, and those two are the only two sorcerers who accepted missions and are still active today."
"Without Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru, there are currently no special-grade sorcerers available in the Japanese sorcery world."
"And can we withstand the wrath of the Gojo family?"
“…”
"Special grade sorcerer, isn't there another one here?"
Someone directed the voice back to Shen Du Jianliu: "Boy, I heard that you easily killed a first-level cursed spirit with a curse tool before you came here."
"Haha... you're even better than your performance on the live broadcast. You're qualified to join the world of spellcasting. We wanted to hire you after the mission was over."
"He has 0 cursed energy and 0 techniques!"
"It's fine for a useless person like this to kill a sorcerer."
The old lady just now retorted unyieldingly in front of the white-haired boy: "The cursed spirit is no joke, can he really exorcise the special grade!?"
Just as the meeting room was about to get into another quarrel, the cold voice of the white-haired boy interrupted them.
"Can."
"What?"
"I can take on all the tasks of removing the cursed spirits."
Shen Du Jianliu glanced at the barrier with a calm expression, his voice still as clear and cold as a stream flowing through the mountains.
His pair of purple eyes, without a trace of emotion, were too cold and indifferent, causing strange shock and making everyone present subconsciously silent.
"But you can't assassinate Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru."
***
After the meeting, Shen Du Jianliu was sent to the Zenin family.
79% of the top brass believe that his strength can bring great benefits to the world of magic and needs to be contained and utilized.
Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru just happened to be one of the reasons to restrain him.
What happened inside the Torii became top secret, and no one outside that room could bring up what happened in the conference room.
The certificate for the special-grade sorcerer will be issued in three days.
At that time, Kamado Miyari would need to enroll in the Tokyo Metropolitan Technical School of Jutsu as the adopted son of the head of the Zenin family.
Of course... Zenin family is just a formal identity, what he really represents is the top of the world of sorcery.
"See Master Liu, please go this way."
At this moment, in the old courtyard with retro and prosperous decoration.
A black-haired woman in a kimono knelt at the gate of the courtyard, prostrated herself on the ground respectfully, and motioned for Shen Du Jianliu to go in the direction she pointed.
"Your room is at the end of the side yard."
"A servant will be assigned to your courtyard later."
As the 26th head of the Zenin family, Zenin Naohito had no feelings about his superiors suddenly assigning him a son.
Just an adopted son.
It is said that the opponent is the same as his nephew Shen'er, a heavenly and cursed being with 0 cursed power and 0 magic styles.
The Zenin family has never paid much attention to people without any skills.
The people above wanted to borrow his reputation, and the Zen temple Zhibi didn't mind doing a good job for the higher-ups. Not only could he gain some favors, but he could also take the opportunity to get a special-grade spell tool that he had been eyeing for a long time.
Therefore, the people of Zen Temple Zhibi generously accepted the Shendujian school.
He asked his subordinates to arrange a room for the other party, and after giving the instructions casually, he became a hands-off manager.
I haven't even met Shen Du.
[This is the Zenin family. As expected of one of the three great families, it’s ridiculously large.]
[The woman at the door had a very humble attitude. I remember that the Zenyuan family was particularly discriminatory against women. It made people feel uncomfortable.]
[But, does Jianliu really have to listen to Rotten Orange...?]
[The Zen temple is a big one, but it seems that A Liu was assigned to the most remote courtyard? Still at the end of the corridor]
[I give up. These people don’t take him seriously at all. I feel sorry for my Liubao.]
Shen Du Jianliu followed another receptionist who came up to greet him indifferently and came to the so-called side courtyard.
The simple wooden door outlines the neat and tidy courtyard. Below the lush green trees and rockery is the ground covered with fine sand and gravel. The water accumulated by the frightened deer hits the stones, making crisp sounds from time to time.
It perfectly matches the live broadcast room’s impression of a Japanese garden.
The further you go in, the less people there are. There is even moss on the wooden pillars that has not been cleaned for a long time.
Without the help of the receptionist, Shen Du Jianliu took the initiative to open the shoji door of his room and glanced at the layout inside in a very calm manner.
Except for the tatami which had a mildewed and damp smell, all other items were neatly placed in their original places and the overall situation was quite clean.
Someone must have come to clean it.
"Well, I'll take my leave now."
The attendant in kimono bowed his head respectfully, turned around and left.
"Thanks."
Shen Du Jianliu watched the other person leave, ignoring the man's surprised expression for some reason, and retracted his gaze and walked into the house.
In the center of the tatami was a blue kimono folded into a square.
He picked it up and looked at it, and found that it was not worn.
Putting down his clothes, Shen Du Jianliu sat down at a small table not far away, took off the fur-collared coat on his shoulders, and began to think about his current main goal.
① Three days later, he will be enrolled in technical high school, and his focus will be on the mentality of Geto Suguru and Gojo Satoru.
② Always complete the elimination tasks assigned to you by the higher-ups and save those who are in despair due to the curse.
There are only these two for now, but the second one is probably a very huge task.
Shen Du Jianliu covered his lips and coughed lightly. He used his vision to capture the blood he coughed out and wiped off the remaining red liquid with a tissue.
He did not take immediate action, but instead endured the roar of his body on the verge of collapse and sat in the house to rest for a while.
…
They said they would send an attendant over later, but it seemed like the Zenin family had forgotten about this person.
No one even brought dinner or asked Shen Du Jianliu to eat.
They seemed to be deliberately ostracizing him, their adopted son who had suddenly appeared.
Since he had no habit of eating dinner on weekdays and only had lunch at the PortMafia headquarters every day, Kamado Miru glanced at the sky outside the small window and stood up from the tatami.
His body was able to move freely for the time being, and adhering to the principle of not wasting time, he could go outside to the streets to see if there was anyone who needed help.
However--
At this moment, the shoji door was suddenly and mercilessly opened with a "swish", making a loud and sharp sound.
A blond boy wearing a high-end kimono appeared at the door with his arms crossed.
The other person had a handsome face, with upturned eyes and a slightly raised chin, which added a bit of arrogance and arrogance to him.
"You?"
"My newly added 'brother' in name only?"
He narrowed his green eyes, looked down at Shen Du Jian Liu, and sneered: "He doesn't look like my father, so it seems he is not a illegitimate child."
The young man raised his arm and signaled several servants behind him to rush forward and stop the other party.
"so……"
"Don't you know how to greet your brother when you see him? You have no manners at all."
"It seems I need to teach you a lesson."
