I've been talking to you for ages, why aren't you saying anything? What are you even here for today?! Second brother!
Water Rat let him curse without saying a word, and after a while, he stiffly said, "Young Master Yamamoto Hidekazu has been arrested in Kyoto..."
Zhang Qi was shocked. "What?! Yamamoto Hidekazu has been arrested?! So fast? Although I had guessed that this might happen, this is too fast!"
Water Rat suddenly asked, "Then why are you still cooperating with him?"
Normally, Zhang Qi would have noticed that something was wrong with this problem.
But something was off tonight, though he didn't pay much attention. He was still quite frightened by what had just happened, and his attention wasn't as focused.
So he just rubbed his temples wearily. "What can we do? Our grandma was Japanese."
He was a disciple of Yamamoto Hide and his father, Yamamoto Shuichiro, which is no ordinary relationship.
Back then, if it weren't for Grandma helping Grandpa from behind, and only Yamamoto secretly supporting us, do you think our family, with one leg stuck in the mud, could have gotten to where we are today?
Our family is inextricably linked to the Japanese; it was destined to be so from my grandfather's generation.
While we can't refuse, we can be more tactful!
For example, now that Yamamoto Hidekazu has been arrested, there are no more people in Yamamoto's faction, and no one can control us anymore.
So, from now on, I'll just keep all of this to myself...
I'll pretend nothing happened and arrange for someone to take you away immediately.
"Should I have someone bring you back when everyone in this area has forgotten you?"
Water Rat said stiffly, "None of us can escape..."
Zhang Qi frowned, looking at him with confusion, "What are you talking about?"
But the water rat, which had been talking just moments before, suddenly fell silent and never made a sound again.
Zhang Qi frowned, a sudden unease rising in his heart.
Just as he was about to go over and see what was wrong with the water rat, a young man suddenly emerged from the shadows beside him.
"He's fine, I just haven't said anything since..."
Zhang Qi was startled and quickly took several steps back. "Who are you?!"
Su Ji chuckled, toying with a small wooden puppet in his hand. "Me? We just exchanged a few words. Don't you know who I am?"
Zhang Qi didn't understand what he was saying at first, but by the time he realized it, his back was quickly soaked with cold sweat.
"You! You were the one who just spoke to me? But...but...this person, he is..."
Su Ji patted Shui Haozi on the shoulder with a grin, "What are you afraid of? He's your brother, Shui Haozi."
The man isn't dead yet! I just conducted a small experiment on him!
Hehe, I never expected that I could actually create puppetry just by thinking about it casually.
He was just being controlled by this little wooden puppet, and I am the puppeteer of this little wooden puppet, so...
From another perspective, I was the one talking to you just now.
Zhang Qi's eyes glazed over for a few seconds. "What are you talking about... Who... Who are you? What do you want?!"
Su Ji smiled but didn't say anything, but several more people emerged from the shadows behind him.
The leader's expression was serious. "You don't need to care who it is anymore. You... are finished..."
