Chapter 39



Chapter 39

That night, Amamiya Ruisheng suffered from complete insomnia.

He tossed and turned in bed for several hours but couldn't fall asleep. Seeing the clock pointing to three in the morning, he had no choice but to get up from the bed, sit by the window, and quietly look at the moon hanging high in the sky outside.

[Host?] The system probed cautiously, [Are you thinking about Tsushima Shuji?]

"Um."

Amamiya Ruisei responded in a low voice.

[In fact, the host doesn't need to worry that much. Even in the thousands of parallel worlds, there are not many people like Tsushima Shuji who died so miserably in the end. Even if there was no host in this world at the beginning, it would be difficult for it to develop to that point...]

The system's voice became weaker and weaker, and finally said in a sighed voice: "Host, are you worried that Tsushima Shuji will become like that after you are gone?"

Amamiya Reizo said softly: [You can say that.]

[I thought about it carefully. Even if Shuji-kun's ability can help me, what's the use? He and I are not from the same world after all.]

He curled up in his chair, his voice muffled: [Instead of thinking about whether it is better for Shuji to awaken his supernatural powers or not, it is better to arrange some people who can hold him back, so that even if something bad happens to him in the future and I am not by his side, or even if I am gone, there will be someone to support him.]

Amamiya Ruisei closed his eyes and said to the system as if he was complaining: [I know that Shuji-kun's condition is deteriorating, and he is becoming more and more abnormal, but I don't know what to do, because I... I have never experienced this before.]

His life so far has been very pure. Before the age of ten, he was no different from ordinary people. After the age of ten, he just tried hard to live. He even came into contact with very few people. All the worries during his growing up were shattered by the illness.

[I don’t know what to do, how can I hold him back,] Amamiya Leisei buried his face in his knees, [I am an elder in his eyes, but I am still inferior to his peers. I can only comfort him helplessly, but I can’t empathize with him.]

[One day I will no longer be able to help him.]

Amamiya Ruisei said sadly: "I think Ango-kun's situation is the closest to Shuji-kun's. He has a more lively personality and they get along well. There will be no problem for them to help each other in the future. The newly appeared Nakahara Chuuya-kun is the same age as Shuji-kun and is a simple person. Shuji-kun is too smart and always tends to think too much. It will be easier to get along with simple people."

[I don’t know what will become of us in the end, but at least now…now I want to do something more for him.]

As he was talking, he sighed, stretched out his hand and patted his face: [Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore.]

[After all, children will have their own lives, and this is all I can do.]

Amamiya Raisei forced a smile to himself: "Okay, I'm going to sleep."

Too bad he stayed up all night.

After not sleeping for a whole night, his head seemed more alert, but his complexion did not look healthy at all, and the dark circles under his eyes were so heavy that they looked like they were covered with ink. When Tsushima Shuji took one look at Amamiya's face, he opened his mouth in suspicion.

"Sir, what did you do last night?" Tsushima Shuji asked, "Were you busy with work again? Or did Nakahara Chuuya send you a message in the middle of the night, causing you to sort out intelligence all night and not get any sleep?"

"No, I just have insomnia."

The corner of Amemiya Rei's mouth twitched. Why did he feel that Shuji-kun seemed to be a little bit hostile towards Nakahara Chuuya, even though they had only met once.

If you knew that he planned to let Nakahara Chuuya accompany Tsushima Shuji, you would probably jump up on the spot.

Amemiya thought worriedly that he should wait until they had more contact. Besides, Nakahara Chuuya had not given him an answer yet.

"I'm going to check out the coast today, but there are a lot of ports controlled by the Mafia there, so Shuji-kun doesn't have to go out with me today."

Amamiya Raisei looked at Sakaguchi Ango who came out of the room rubbing his eyes and said, "Shuji-kun, stay in the branch with Ango-kun to study today."

"Ah - studying again." Sakaguchi Ango howled, "I don't think I need to study here by myself."

Amamiya Reizo: "Don't you have Shuji-kun to study with you?"

Sakaguchi Ango: "I don't want to study with Shuji anymore!" Damn it, the top student! He feels like he's being crushed!

Tsushima Shuji: "You sound like I really want to study with you."

The two kids disliked each other for a while, and Tsushima Shuji looked at Amamiya Ruishou and said, "... then sir, be careful on the road." He didn't even mention whether he could take him along or anything.

Amamiya Leisheng pursed his lips: "Yes, I will."

After they had breakfast, Amamiya Ruisei left in a hurry. Tsushima Shuji stood at the door and watched the young man get on the car and drive away.

Putting a hand on the boy's shoulder, Sakaguchi Ango half leaned on him and said, "Okay, stop looking. It's not like Mr. Amamiya won't come back. His ability is so strong. You might as well worry about yourself instead of him."

"What do I have to worry about?" Tsushima Shuji rolled his eyes.

"The branch isn't really safe either." Sakaguchi Ango patted his shoulder. "Maybe those mafia members are planning to break in and steal the pages, or kidnap you."

"Come to think of it, your life has been very difficult. It's only been over a month, and you've already been kidnapped twice."

Ango Sakaguchi exclaimed: "I've only experienced this twice in my life."

"Is that so? Then I'm sure you need to be more careful too." Tsushima Shuji looked at Sakaguchi Ango with a smile, "Don't forget that there are undercover agents in the upper echelons of the Special Powers Division. The fact that you can see the future through the pages of a book will probably be put in front of the undercover agents."

Ango Sakaguchi looked depressed: "With just a picture of a dead person, who would be so straightforward to believe that I can see the future through the 'book'?"

"You've already said that adults are greedy, so we are all in danger." Tsushima Shuji patted Sakaguchi Ango's shoulder and said earnestly, "Don't get kidnapped before me."

Sakaguchi Ango pouted.

Amemiya Leisheng had already passed the message to Taneda Santoka last night and obtained permission to go to the seaside port. Of course, this port is owned by the government, not the Port Mafia or other mafia.

However, in Yokohama, the official power of the government is too weak, so it is inevitable to see members of the Mafia at the port.

Amemiya Leisei cast a covert glance at a group of black-clad men who just passed by. They were obviously sent by their superiors to receive the goods. Because all the goods coming into this government port were legitimate, they did not hide anything at all and had no awareness of being part of the mafia. They commanded their subordinates to load and unload the goods in a swaggering manner.

"Mr. Amamiya, this way." A colleague from the Secret Service Department came over and whispered, "Let's take a speedboat to the sea to have a look."

Amamiya Reisheng retracted his gaze and nodded: "I understand."

As they walked towards the boat, he asked, "Which faction did that group of mafia members belong to?"

"It is said that they are from the port Mafia," said a colleague, "but don't worry, Mr. Amamiya. They dare not cause trouble in a government office. There is a psychic and military police stationed here."

Amamiya Raisei said he understood, "But will they also use the government's port?"

"After all, some things have to be exposed. Some mafia groups also have to do legitimate business, otherwise they will hand over the handle to the government."

As my colleague was talking, they came to the speedboat docked on the shore: "Mr. Amamiya, please."

Amamiya Leisheng got on the speedboat, and the group headed quickly toward the sea. There were two cargo ships docked at the port, but not many other ships.

"Let's just take a look around here now." Amamiya Reizo narrowed his eyes, "and then go back."

He is still very conspicuous now. If he stays outside for too long, it would be bad if some desperate criminals attack him.

"Okay, Mr. Amamiya."

The young man sat on the speedboat, looking at the water speeding past below. Of course he couldn't see anything from this perspective, so he let the system use its energy to perform a scan.

[System, can you see anything?]

The system scanned diligently: [No!]

It said it with a clear conscience. Although he knew that the system couldn't do anything with the 'book', Amamiya Ruisei couldn't help but feel a little helpless: [Well, it's better than nothing. Or you can see if you can find some treasures and pick them up to play with.]

System: [No problem, host.]

Amamiya Raizo smelled the scent of the sea breeze, propped up his head with one hand and looked at the sea, thinking, even if the "book" is really in the sea, it will probably have to be brought by Shuji-kun. Does that mean Shuji-kun has to dive into the sea?

Suddenly, a cell phone rang, and the colleague who followed quickly answered the phone: "Hello? This is xx, what can I do for you?"

"What? The branch was attacked?!"

Amamiya Raisei looked over immediately and asked, "What happened?"

"The branch was attacked?" Amamiya Reizo thought of Tsushima Shuji and the others who were still in the branch, and suddenly panicked, "Let's go back first!"

The speedboat immediately changed direction, and a colleague quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, Mr. Amamiya, your two children are fine, and Shuye is fine too. It was just an ordinary attack."

Despite this, Amamiya Leisheng was still anxious: "Then we should go back and take a look as soon as possible."

He went back shortly after coming out and rushed to the infirmary as soon as he entered. Shuji Tsushima was sitting on a chair bandaging Ango Sakaguchi's arm.

"Shuji-kun, Ango-kun!" Amamiya Reizo looked the two children up and down, "How are you?"

"It's nothing, it's just that stupid Ango fell down while running away and cut his arm." Tsushima Shuji spread his hand and let Amamiya Ruisei check it, "Sir, take a look."

Tsushima Shuji's clothes were a little messy, but he was not injured as he said, so Amamiya Ruisei breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's all right, it's all right."

Amamiya Raisei wiped the sweat off his head and asked, "Where are the attackers? Which force are they from? Have they been caught?"

Tsushima Shuji hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "Which force... I don't know because we haven't caught anyone."

Sakaguchi Ango raised his intact hand and said, "I testify that this is indeed the case."

"Okay," Amamiya Raisei glanced at Tsushima Shuji's expression and said, "I understand. I will confirm what happened."
