RNP Chapter 385: Afterthought
Chapter 385: Afterthought
The moonlight shines silvery and the night is filled with stars, at this moment, inside the castle tower.
General Raiden sent for Kujo Sara to inquire about the investigation of Bayin Island.
"Reporting to the general, the current situation on Yayun Island is at a disadvantage. The resistance army took advantage of our unpreparedness and kidnapped thousands of soldiers and Kujo Gyōshō. They said they needed a certain amount of resources in exchange for one person, otherwise they would take extreme measures."
Kujo Sara lowered his head, with many doubts in his mind about the defeat. The originally peaceful situation was reversed in an instant.
"Being inferior to others is a sin that the loser should bear, and the resistance army will not be that extreme, so please rest assured, Miss Sala."
At this moment, a third voice suddenly appeared, causing General Lei Dian to look towards the door, where a familiar pink-haired fox appeared.
"Kujo Sara greets the Lord of the Court."
"No gift."
Yae Shinko didn't care at all about Kujo Sara who was very polite in front of the general. She just looked at General Raiden and said with a hint of helplessness in her tone:
"My good general, the shogunate's troops were captured by the rebels on Kaijima. If you don't bring something in exchange, someone might get into trouble."
"Kujo Sara, I'll leave the task of retrieving the person to you. By the way, tell Kujo Takayuki what the fate of the useless will be."
"I understand, General."
Kujo Sara half-knelt down respectfully, accepted the order from General Raiden, turned around and left the castle tower, leaving only the private space of Yae Kamiko and General Raiden.
Seeing that the person had left, Yae Shinto put away his smile and said seriously:
"My good general, please let Ying come out for a moment. What I'm talking about is related to the eternal cause. She must know it before we can proceed to the next step."
"I am both the Thunder General and the Thunder God. You can talk to me about the eternal things. There is no need for her in the Pure Land."
Yae Shinko looked at the rather troublesome General of Thunder in front of him and wanted to lure Ying out of the One-Minded Pure Land, but it would be impossible without some special words and methods.
When she thought of the method, Yae Shinko couldn't help but recall the handkerchief that Ye handed to her before she left the meeting.
"By the way, someone asked me to give this handkerchief to the Thunder God. If you are going to see her, give it to her as well. It might work wonders."
Helplessly, Yae Shenzi had to try her best. Compared with the handkerchief, the information she had was the key to whether the person could be lured out. But the two combined would not be a problem, so she took out the handkerchief and said:
"Ah~, you are so stubborn that you still don't know that the shrine on Bayun Island has been destroyed. That is the talisman that seals the evil spirit. If Zhen saw this, how sad he would be."
"The shrine was destroyed? Son of God, tell me who did it. I want to make him understand the consequences of destroying something she cherishes."
The cloudless sky was shrouded in mist, bursts of thunder mixed with lightning were released in the sky, and drops of rain fell, turning the entire Inazuma from a sunny day into a heavy rainstorm.
Listening to the sound of dripping rain outside, Yae Shinto looked at General Thunder, whose eyes had already changed, and was quite surprised that Ying actually ran out.
She looked at the purple and white handkerchief in her hand, and for a moment she couldn't figure out which item had attracted the other party, but she still seized this only opportunity and told the other party some basic information.
"I will take care of the matter of the shrine. Also, someone asked me to give this thing to you. She will come to you when she has time."
Yae Shen Zi did not waste any time and said everything he could say. Then he threw the handkerchief that Ye Li had taken to Lei Dianying, turned around and turned into a flash of lightning, and disappeared in the castle tower without giving Lei Dianying time to react.
At this moment, Lei Dianying was very confused. Her mind was in a mess and she was processing the information that Yae Shenzi told her. It took her a long time to react and she looked down at the thing in her hand.
Looking at the familiar handkerchief in her palm, Lei Dianying fell into deep thought again. Her eyes were dull and she was lost in memories. Then her body couldn't help but tremble. An unbelievable thought appeared in her heart, but she suppressed it.
Holding the handkerchief tightly against his chest, Lei Dianying gasped heavily. The originally calm thunder elemental force around him suddenly fluctuated abnormally. The sound of thunder outside the window drowned out the sound of falling raindrops, and a flash of white light enveloped the main hall of the castle tower.
……
On the outlying island, the construction of the Wangsheng Hall branch was suspended due to rain. Ye Li had anticipated this and took the tea. He sat in the house and watched the thunder outside, muttering a few words:
"Isn't this too exciting? I hope Shen Zi doesn't betray me, otherwise I'll be in trouble."
After taking a sip of tea, Ye Li looked at the Inazuma map placed on the table. Various red dots were marked on it. They were all the locations where he planned to deploy. Now he had reached 90% of the height, and only 10% was left to complete the layout.
Thinking of Zhenhe's own plan, Ye Li was quite helpless. Not only did he have to ensure the survival of a large number of people, but he also couldn't let Ying feel too guilty. Isn't this difficult for him?
However, the contract has been signed, so he can only do his job honestly. After all, his family is watching him. It's okay if he slacks off during normal times, but it would be really embarrassing if he fails at the critical moment.
Stopping the thoughts in his mind, Ye Li poured himself another cup of tea, turned his head and saw Zao You, who was holding a big leaf and looked sleepy outside the window.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Ye Li. The head of the family asked me to deliver a letter to you."
"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Zaoyou. If you don't mind, you can go and rest on the sofa over there. I'm sure the head of the Kamisato family won't say anything."
"Really? Then Zaoyou will be welcome."
Zaoyou, who was busy working in the rain at the moment, couldn't bear it anymore. He grabbed the big leaf that was covering his body and threw it away. He jumped three feet high, flipped in the air, lay steadily on the sofa, and fell asleep.
"Young people are in good health and can sleep whenever they want."
Looking at the little Loli who was not on guard at all, Ye Li just smiled, put away the map, and opened the letter that Shenli Lingren sent him.
[Mr. Ye Li, the information you provided us has brought us excellent results. Now the power of the society is more effective than usual, and the taxation of the Kanding has also been reduced. The International Chamber of Commerce can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
The promotion plan for the Wangshengtang that we cooperated with Mr. has also been completed. You can ask Brother Teppei to go to Mingjin Taisha to pick it up in a while.
Also, Miss Yae asked me to bring you a message, saying thank you for the things you gave her, which are very useful. The general has also taken action, and our plans are progressing steadily. Perhaps we all have a bright future: Kamisato Ryoto]
After reading the letter in his hand, Ye Li placed it on top of the candle and lit it to destroy it. He couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and said:
"It looks like we are on the right track. It's time to complete the last step and then pack up and run. I've been exhausted these past few days."
Ye Li stood up, stretched, and looked out the window at the clear sky. The dark clouds had dispersed and the rain had stopped. He waved his hand and a quilt appeared out of thin air on Zao You who had fallen asleep. He covered her up to prevent her from catching a cold.
