Chapter 6

"I'm sorry, sir, I've caused you trouble..." Tsushima Shuji was tied up and sat on the dirty ground, leaning close to Amamiya Raizo. There was some apology in his tone, but not much panic. I don't know if he thought of a way to escape, or knew that these people would not hurt them. "It's a sensitive period recently, I should have been more careful."

The Tsushima family has been in politics for many years. His father is a high-ranking government official. His two elder brothers also entered politics after they became adults and now hold important positions in the local government of Aomori. The political enemies of the Tsushima family want to find someone to attack, so they naturally target the youngest one, Shuji Tsushima. It is not easy to catch an adult, but isn't it easy to catch a ten-year-old child who is powerless?

What's more, Amamiya Keizo, who was traveling with Tsushima Shuji, was a sickly person who vomited blood and was admitted to the hospital. It is estimated that after these people found that the new professor was not a threat, they began to prepare to arrest him.

Tsushima Shuji wasn't quite sure what his father was busy with recently, but he guessed that it was something that conflicted with the interests of his political enemies, which made these people take the risk to arrest him.

Amemiya Reizo shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter whether I'm involved or not. I just wanted to follow." The person they wanted to catch was the young master Tsushima. If he hadn't been worried about Tsushima Shuji, these people would not have bothered to catch him. After all, someone was needed to pass on the news, and as a teacher, Amemiya Reizo was more suitable to contact the head of the Tsushima family.

Thinking of this, Tsushima Shuji felt a little frustrated: "They won't hurt me, but you are different. What if they do something to you?"

The boy was just about to call him an idiot.

Amamiya Leisheng smiled awkwardly: "I didn't think that much."

"Besides," Amamiya Reisei pursed his lips, "Are you so sure they won't hurt you?"

What if, what if the head of the Tsushima family does not intend to give up his actions, and his political enemies become angry out of humiliation?

Tsushima Shuji opened his mouth and was silent for a moment: "At least... you won't kill me."

If they can't even protect their own family members, the Tsushima family will inevitably be caught up in some public opinion. Even for the sake of the family's reputation, the head of the Tsushima family will try to have the best of both worlds. Not only will he use political means, he will also send people to rescue them.

Yes, it's just... for the family's face.

It was as if they would not accept his mediocrity. Even if he was not as good as his brothers, he could not be worse than the people in other families. He was not allowed to have fun, and even when he sneaked out to play, he could not stay for too long. He even had to disguise himself for fear of being photographed. The next day, the newspaper would have a big headline saying that the young master of the Tsushima family was not doing his job and was not a good person.

As long as he is the young master of the Tsushima family, he represents the face of the family.

So his father would definitely send someone to rescue him.

But Amamiya Keisei was different. He was just a university professor. If he died as a result of being kidnapped, at most he would occupy a small spot in the newspaper. His former students might attend his funeral, but then he would disappear from people's memory.

"What if the other party breaks the altar?" Amamiya Leisheng still disagreed, "You don't know what they are thinking."

Tsushima Shuji opened his mouth, as if he wanted to continue explaining something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just responded with a low "hmm".

But just waiting for someone to rescue them was not an option. Amamiya racked his brains, trying to come up with a safe escape plan.

First, I had to cut the ropes on my body, then figure out where I was, then I had to see how many people there were on the other side, and whether there were any surveillance cameras around. It would be best if I could avoid a direct encounter...

If they met each other, Amamiya Ruisei really didn't know how a weak teacher like himself and a child could defeat the opponent.

It's a bit difficult. His brain really doesn't work very well.

The two of them were thinking about their own things. The room was quiet for a while. The boy moved his stiff body and asked after a long while, "Sir, why do you think Aunt Jiu Guizi helped them?"

Amamiya was stunned for a moment.

He and Hisako were not actually very familiar with each other, so how could he know?

The young man tilted his head to glance at Tsushima Shuji. The boy lowered his head, his hair covering the upper half of his face and also hiding his expression in shadow. But even though he couldn't see his face, Amamiya Ruisei could imagine that at this moment Tsushima Shuji must be filled with confusion and helplessness.

Hisako, who had watched him grow up and taken care of him for ten years, teamed up with others to kidnap him. This might have had a greater impact on Tsushima Shuji than his father giving up on him.

Amamiya Raisei thought for a moment and said, "Maybe that's not the Kukiko you know?"

"After all, there are ways to change your appearance in this world. The enemy screened the people around you and thought that Kukiko was the one who could make you relax your vigilance the most, so they found someone to pretend to be her," he guessed, "Perhaps the real Kukiko has been killed."

Tsushima Shuji said softly: "But, she is indeed the Aunt Jiukiko I am familiar with..."

Amamiya Reizo pondered, it shouldn't be possible that Tsushima Shuji couldn't recognize someone he was with day and night, so could it be possible that...

[System, does this world have superpowers or something?] Since there are pillars of the world, this world should not be an ordinary world.

The system took a long time to reply: [Yes, host, because it is your first time to do a mission, we have selected a parallel world with a similar worldview to your original world. You may even see acquaintances from childhood.]

In that case.

"Shuji-kun," he said carefully, "Have you ever heard of supernatural powers?"

Tsushima Shuji was stunned: "What?"

"That's it," Amamiya Ruisei found a suitable description, "It's common in light novels, the protagonist has superpowers, something like this."

Tsushima Shuji raised his head and looked at Amamiya Reizo with his eyes widened: "Are you trying to say that there are superpowers like this in real life?"

Amamiya Leisheng nodded and said, "Yes."

"There are many kinds of superpowers. Either there is a person with superpowers who can completely change his appearance and temperament and pretend to be Hisako to come to you, or they simply control Hisako and let her help them." Otherwise, placing someone by Tsushima Shuji's side for ten years would be a loss instead of gain. Ten years ago, the head of the Tsushima family was not in his current position. There was no need to do this at all.

Tsushima Shuji was speechless: "Is that so? Then Aunt Kukiko..."

"It's very likely that she didn't mean to do that. Don't be sad," Amamiya Leisheng smiled soothingly, "How about we think of a way to save her after we get out?"

The boy then smiled faintly: "Yes, sir."

Amamiya breathed a sigh of relief.

If he couldn't see that Tsushima Shuji was feeling lost, he wouldn't be worthy of being a teacher. Whether it was because of the head of the Tsushima family or because of Hisako, he had to cheer up.

Unable to think of a way to escape for the time being, Amamiya Ruisheng simply told Tsushima Shuji about his supernatural powers. This kind of supernatural power was naturally hidden by the government, but the Tsushima family must have known about it. When Tsushima Shuji grew up, his father would also tell him about this. Now he just knew it in advance.

"Superpowers are basically rich and varied. They awaken at different times according to each person's characteristics, and you can continue to develop and train to make yourself stronger." Amamiya Ruisei said, "It is rare to encounter two exactly the same superpowers. It is possible to have similar superpowers, but the world is so big that it is unlikely to meet each other."

The enemy hired a superpower to deal with a child, which was really a big deal, he muttered in his heart.

"Most superpowers are not very strong, but some are very special, such as healing and predictive powers. There are not many particularly strong superpowers in Japan. They are basically concentrated in Europe, which is the source of superpowers."

Shuji Tsushima: "Sir, have you ever seen a person with supernatural powers?"

"I've seen it before. It's actually no different from ordinary people, except that it has an extra superpower." Of course, it is not ruled out that this is just what he saw.

Tsushima Shuji asked again: "Does the gentleman have any special powers?"

Amamiya paused, glanced at the boy in surprise, and said, "Um... No, otherwise I wouldn't be tied up here with you now. I should have beaten them all to the ground when they came to catch you."

"No?"

Amamiya Ruisei smiled and said, "Everyone awakens their superpowers at different times. Maybe I will have it in the future. Maybe you, Shuji, will have superpowers too."

Tsushima Shuji tilted his head and thought: "I can't imagine it."

"Why don't we think about how we can escape?"

"It was the gentleman who told me this."

Amamiya Reizo coughed lightly and said, "Well, this is common sense. I just thought about it. If I get sick and you threaten them and pretend that you will commit suicide if they don't save me, will they let us go?"

Tsushima Shuji: "Maybe half and half, we can only try."

"What happens after the untying?"

Amamiya Leisheng: "Then run?"

Tsushima Shuji: "..."

"Well, don't worry, I'm a professional when it comes to sneaking!" Yu Gong Lei Sheng raised his chin and hummed twice with pride.

When he was young, he could run away from the hospital under the surveillance of the Special Forces. If he hadn't fainted on the side of the road, they wouldn't have been able to find him. He didn't believe that these people were more powerful than the guys in the Special Forces.

Tsushima Shuji was a little suspicious because he was the one who brought the child out when he left home.

"So how do you plan to pretend to be sick?"

Amamiya Rei's eyes rolled and he said, "Why not just vomit blood?"

He bent his legs and rammed his chest hard with his knees. The familiar feeling of nausea rose instantly, and a pool of blood spurted out of his mouth, staining his clothes red and even the corners of Tsushima Shuji's pants.

"Look," Amamiya Reizo said vaguely with blood in his mouth, "Isn't this enough?"

Shuji Tsushima: “…………”
