Cang Lan, who understood what the other party meant, sighed inwardly.
For Xia Ye's innocence and stubbornness, he felt irritated and helpless. Sometimes he would think that it would be great if this younger sister was a little more clumsy, or less thoughtful, and be an obedient young lady.
"Hunting is a matter that has been decided, and I cannot change it."
"But you can turn a blind eye."
"Yes, but why should I do this?" The second young master Wanhua raised his voice, "Are you naive to accompany you!?"
Xia Ye was silent.
"Sister, I'm not lying when I say I'm on your side." Cang Lan continued.
"However, the premise is that you don't do too stupid things! Lose your temper and be self-willed. I won't say anything about these. You can do whatever you want."
"However, some things are not acceptable. After all, there is a bottom line. You should also recognize the reality."
A moment of silence.
"Reality... I don't know if I have recognized it clearly." Xia Ye said softly, "But the reality I see is different from what you see."
Her tone was very light and light, as if she had no emotion at all. But Cang Lan felt a stabbing pain, and her irritability rose again.
He had to tell himself to calm down repeatedly, forcefully suppressing the irritability, and what was left was deep helplessness.
"Since you are so repulsive about sending people here, then I won't arrange any more people, and I will let Ritsujiro Rokkata assist you alone... Don't play your temper, and complete the task as soon as possible."
The phone hangs up.
Xia Ye slowly put down the phone, and then suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up slightly.
Thank you, Brother Canglan. she said in her heart.
…
Ritsujiro found Nobuhiro Someya in a private toilet near the school.
The guy was covered in injuries, and fell on the toilet like a dead dog, looking quite miserable.
Although there is no sympathy for this guy, it is not very happy either.
Ritsujiro contacted the hospital, dragged Someya out of the toilet, sent him to the ambulance sent by the hospital, and watched him leave.
Then when he was going back to Yuanhua Middle School to continue his mission, a tall boy in Yuanhua school uniform appeared in front of him.
"I'm Seiji Haruta, and I want to talk to you, Mr. Rokkata."
Haruta... Ritsujiro suddenly became nervous.
He had heard some rumors about the relationship between this well-known good-for-nothing in the Springfield family and the eldest lady...
"What do you want to talk about, Mr. Springfield."
"Let's go to a place where we can talk first." Seiji motioned, then turned and walked.
Ritsujiro's eyes flickered slightly, and he followed.
Walk into a coffee shop.
There are not many customers in the store at this time. The two sat down in the corner, ordered, and then fell silent together.
Seiji didn't speak until the waiter served the drinks for the two of them and walked away.
"Looking at your reaction, you know my identity, so I won't introduce myself redundantly."
"What I want to talk to you about is the search for the Awakened... Please stop when you find two Awakened, and report to your superiors that 'this is all'."
Ritsujiro narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Why?"
"Of course it is to reduce the number of victims." Seiji looked at the other party, "You should know what will happen to the awakened ones who are found?"
Ritsujiro was silent for a moment.
"What's in it for you?" he asked.
"No."
"Then why are you doing this?"
"Because I want to do this, just like Xia Ye."
Ritsujiro's nerves tensed even more.
"This is indeed what the eldest lady meant..."
"No, I mean it." Seiji said calmly, "I learned the situation from her, and I just made up my own mind."
Ritsujiro frowned.
"If you agree to this request, you will get corresponding benefits, which are more than what you can get by completing the mission." Seiji promised.
"... What if I don't agree?"
"I beat Someya."
This sentence does not answer the question, but it is a straightforward answer.
"I seriously thought about killing him, because I can't have a good conversation with someone like him." Seijime said coldly.
"It didn't work out in the end, it's a little regrettable, but whatever..."
"You are different from that kind of guy, Mr. Liufang, you are someone you can talk to... I hope you make the right choice."
Ritsujiro sensed the opponent's aura.
The famous waste of the Springfields... that was the past. The young man sitting in front of him is a strong man who can kill Nobuhiro Someya without getting hurt himself!
Facing the real pressure, he broke out in a cold sweat.
"The correct choice for me is to obey the Wanhua family..."
"Miss Wanhua will be happy for you to agree to this request. Otherwise, she will be very sad."
"I respect Missy, but..."
"This request is not to ask you to give up the mission, but to be lenient." Seiji said softly, "It's not to ask you to take a huge risk of betrayal, but to turn a blind eye and close your eyes, and show a little kindness."
Ritsujiro was silent again.
"There are always bad things happening in the world, one more is not much, and one less is not much. Most of us can do nothing. But if it is in front of us, if we can, reach out to stop it, reduce some victims, and add a little bit of beauty to the world. ..." Seiji took a sip of coffee, his eyes darkened, "At least I think so."
Then there was a long silence.
Customers come and go, waiters come and go, doorbells jingle, coffee runs out of heat and starts to get cold...
Finally, Ritsujiro let out a long sigh, picked up the cold coffee, and drank it down in one gulp.
After putting down the cup, he looked at each other.
Seeing his eyes, Seiji understood his answer.
…
With Xia Ye's cooperation, Ritsujiro found two awakened ones a day later.
It was Shohei Matsushima from Class 3 of the second year, and Takaya Nakamura from Class 5 of the third year.
The two boys were people Seiji didn't know.
Ritsujiro will report their information, and say that "Yuanhua Middle School only has these two awakened people", and end the mission.
There are only two people... Will this family doubt it? Xia Ye said that there is no need to worry about this, it will be fine.
Ziji, Xingxiu, and other potential awakened people in the school are safe...for now.
If the concealment is exposed, the Wanhua family will search again.
Even if they leave Yuanhua Middle School, the situation of awakened people in other schools is the same, there will always be forces to do such things.
Even leaving the city and escaping to other places is the same.
Although there are forces that give shelter to the awakened, it is not known whether that is just superficial or whether it will last forever. Seiji didn't think that Ziji and Xingxiu should seek refuge in the past, but Mr. Tianhai thought the same as him.
The psychic world has not yet reached a consensus on treating awakened people kindly, and there is no credible, powerful enough force that truly protects awakened people. This is the fundamental problem!
If only a bald professor in a wheelchair founded an academy... Seiji couldn't help but think so.
In the final analysis, it is a lack of strength.
If I have enough power, I will be the bald professor myself!
No, no, not really becoming bald, but creating a power like him.
It's a pity that now it's hard to just protect my friends.
Seiji sighed helplessly. At this time, I received a message from Bihua.
"I have collected some information about the spirit world."
