Chapter 139 Cutting the Thread
Kamo Tsukuyuki was not unaware of the damage that the one-year blockade had brought to the Kamo family. Even though he had the intention to maintain them, the losses would be greater in the end, especially since he still had the strength to spare. The reason for all this is simply because he doesn't care about this family.
Whether it was from his memory or his true self, he had no expectations for this corrupt family.
The reason he stayed here now was just for the classics inside, and he also needed a place to study, and its influence could also provide some help to his next plan. The premise of all this is that the Kamo family is completely at his disposal, so from the very beginning, he decided its fate.
Cang's ability is a disaster for unprepared humans. Lifespan will always be an inescapable curse hanging over people's heads. Over the years, countless people have bowed their heads in obedience to it. Not to mention, there are Elliot and the main body behind the scenes. This time, the Kamo family is actually fighting against a "Colorless King" blessed by the "pages of the book", a "Transcendent" who has surpassed others, and a "Special Cursed Spirit" who has special attacks on humans. It has a foundation, but this foundation can't last long in front of "them".
The streak of blood that day was its final struggle.
Most of the Kamo family members who fainted did not know what happened afterwards, nor did they know what changes had happened to them. They were just thankful that even after such a disaster, they still survived. "Hayato", Nozomi had also searched for him on them, but without alerting the cursed spirit, he could not get much information.
"Well, you mean, there are outsiders who have sneaked in?" After finishing another fruitful research, Kamo Tsukuyuki washed his hands and walked out of the secure basement. Suddenly, he stopped and pretended to listen.
"Replacing the original Kamo family and walking inside with his identity..." He fell into deep thought. The follower who had been following him and didn't know how the master heard the words of Master Curse Spirit immediately became nervous. He said quickly: "It's our fault that we didn't notice..."
Kamo Tsukiyuki waved his hand: "That's not necessary. I roughly know who it is."
"If it's him, you can't stop him." Kamo Yuexing thought about it, he glanced at Cang, Cang was still smiling, it followed quietly by the side without moving. No one knew that ever since that day when all the remaining members of the Kamo tribe knelt down and kowtowed before him, begging for mercy for their lives, Cang had a vague sense of all these people. It might not be able to devour them all at once, but it could still discern their true nature.
He looked back at the secret research room where the real person was locked up. "Perhaps," a tangled red thread appeared in his hand from nowhere. "We can use it to experiment with the ability of this item..."
"Gurgle." A dice was thrown and the number ⑤ appeared. "The mood is bright and the thinking ability is improved." This is a buff that enhances the status. It has appeared before, but it was not this number at that time. Pei Zhen thought for a while in the detective agency, and without much hesitation, he sent the [Six-Sided Dice] card to Kamo Yuexing.
When he is not preparing to draw cards, this improvement is a small gain for the scientific researcher, but before he prepares to do something, he will not miss any improvement that may be beneficial.
As for himself, Pei Zhen glanced at the molten light ball in the lower left corner. Based on the remaining 1962, the reputation of the new writer was still continuously adding values, from the initial hundreds to the later dozens. After a year, this work still had income, but the amount was no longer as much as before.
But generally speaking, apart from what had been added in 1962, it later provided him with a majority of 7,000. Although it was accumulated over a year, Pei Zhen also felt it was worth it. Later, Yagyu Mingche finally became famous. Although it was due to the popularity of the missing case in the village, he became famous. His album was very popular in Japan during that period, and once surpassed the sales brought by the original book. But then it gradually declined. It was not until the second album was released under the operation of Wangchuan Shu that it returned to a small peak again.
Under the premise that the original body did not plan to create a second book, Yagyu Mingche finally became the person who obtained the most light liquid among all the aliases. When he was first created, he had already decided not to participate in any plots and only focus on improving the public's stats. Pei Zhen didn't know how this golden finger made its judgment, but he had to admit that its decision left him with a loophole.
Maybe this isn't a bug at all. Ordinary people are not worthless, it’s just that the significance of their existence is too small and we cannot see it now. Pei Zhen seemed to be thinking about something.
He gained more than 10,000 light values in one fell swoop. The light in the molten liquid ball seemed to be about to overflow at any time. Even though Pei Zhen never drew a card, it managed to accommodate a total of 18,962. Pei Zhen watched it reach 19,000, but he didn't see the "Golden Card Draw" option suddenly pop up on the golden finger. Obviously, either the number was not enough, or, as he had thought before, he could only rely on ordinary card draws to make a comeback, or achieve "golden achievements."
"No rush." Pei Zhen touched Bao Shi's head. Since there were no customers coming to consult, he would rest in the detective agency. "There is nothing urgent for me to do right now. I can continue to wait." He looked up at the TV, which was playing a not-so-interesting TV series. He curled up on the sofa with the cat in his arms, smiled lazily and said, "We still have a lot of time."
Explore what is happening to you.
Kamo Tsukuyuki received the dice and felt the blessing that came with it. The smile on his face suddenly became very warm. But soon, the smile faded from his face. On the contrary, the news about the intruder he learned from Cang made his expression become unpredictable. He looked in one direction: "Did you find out where this is..."
Noose had countless ways of interrogating people for information, but in order not to alert the cursed spirit, he was still very careful and lurked for a while before making any major moves. "With most of the family's houses destroyed, shouldn't the first house that people were called to rebuild be the main house of the head of the family?" Thinking of the information he had found from a member of the Kamo tribe who had been promoted within a year, excitement flashed in Nosuo's eyes.
"Sure enough, a man who can destroy a family in one fell swoop cannot be without secrets," he kept thinking in his mind, "If I knew his secret, maybe I could speed up my plan and let the era of true magic come. By then..."
He sneaked over there stealthily but at a high speed. What he didn't see was that a red silk thread was silently tied to one of his hands from a space that was quietly opened, while the other end was tied to the real person by Kamo Tsukiyuki.
"Next, do we cut it off?"
【Silver·Red Silk Thread】, "The connections between people are like invisible and intangible silk threads. Intimacy is entanglement, while severance is an abrupt end. Human relationships are like a web, destined for a lifetime. Some people can be met at the next intersection, while some people, once you turn around, are separated forever."
"This thread is more like a materialization of a conceptual object." Kamo Tsukiyuki lifted the stretched thread with one finger: "The original connection is presented in the form of thread. Perhaps they already existed, but the thread made them appear in my eyes, allowing me to touch them."
He glanced at the two connected parties, thought for a moment, exerted force with his hands, and the light silk thread broke into two sections. The noose suddenly stopped, and for a moment, he felt as if he had lost something in his heart. He felt empty and a little dazed.
But the feeling was not strong, it was more like a thought that flashed through his mind by chance. It's like the nostalgia you have when it rains, or the tiredness you have when it's late at night, it disappears in a flash. He didn't think it was anything special, not even a warning of danger. He did not hesitate and continued to move forward.
What happened next was what Kamo Tsukiyuki wanted to see. He did not send anyone to intercept the outsider who was disguised as a member of the Kamo family. Instead, he used Cang's vision to observe everything this person encountered.
Noso is a great sorcerer who survived from a thousand years ago. He knows a wide range of techniques and abilities. The Kamo family is the family he has "cultivated" the longest. If it weren't for that disaster, he would have been like a fish in water in this family. But what he encountered next dealt an unprecedented blow to his confidence.
First, they encountered a random patrol team, and Hayato had to turn back. But at the last moment, the captain of the team stopped him and said that a certain work place of the family needed people and wanted to temporarily call him in. Xusuo did not object, because in this year, no one had the right to make free choices. Later, he thought, this team seemed to be going in the same direction as him, so he could follow it for a while and then find a way to break away later.
But who would have thought that just when he was about to leave, the fifth elder who was supposed to be maintaining the barrier led an elite group to find this place. It turned out that they were short of a certain supply, and they came to find the captain of this small team to ask him to buy some for his next outing - they didn't even need to come in person, they just needed to find the family management officer and ask them to make a note of it on the purchase list. But the fifth elder seemed a little anxious and came in person to give the instructions.
But he chose to flee at this very moment, and the stitches on his forehead were revealed by a sudden gust of wind. The Fifth Elder noticed this and a puzzled expression appeared on his face: "You are... Hayato from the 'Jiangren' family. He used to be my loyal subordinate. What is this on your forehead?"
Xu Suo was speechless. He smiled and said, "I said I hurt my head during my last job. Do you believe me?"
But the Fifth Elder, who had just dealt with a break-in incident, immediately became alert. He said sternly, "No matter if it's him or not, arrest him first!"
The two teams immediately took action.
