Some people say that after you tell a lie, you need to cover it up with countless lies.
Even if it's a big lie, Tachibana Masamune must find a way to round it off. He can't lose the trust of these family heads yet. His plan is coming to an end. This is his lifelong ambition. The immortal throne is close at hand.
Chi, if something goes wrong on the last few stairs leading to the throne, he will never be reconciled. One step back will lead to an abyss, and the success will be ruined.
"Yes, Eriki shouldn't actually be called Eriki Uesugi. Her original name is Eriki Tachibana." Masamune Tachibana said in a slightly trembling voice, as if he had been holding these words in his heart for a long time, "Two
Ten years ago, I came to Japan with my infant Eri, she is my child, and Eri is my daughter... she is my only relative in this world."
Minamoto Chisheng watched Tachibana Masamune's "performance" indifferently, and couldn't help but applaud him in his heart.
He had to admit that Tachibana Masamune was indeed an outstanding actor. If he had been the old self who didn't know the truth, he would have been moved and deceived by Tachibana Masamune's sincere performance... But today's Minamoto is different.
It was not because Lu Mingfei told him the truth in advance, but because Yuan Zhisheng already had a father and had already met his father.
The scene where he and Uesugi met and recognized each other at the ramen stall left such a deep impression on Minamoto. Minamoto could completely feel the old man's complex emotions at that moment.
The guilt and apology in her heart allowed Yuan Zhisheng to fully understand the deep, special and cautious love a father has for his child.
No matter how heart-wrenching or sad the expression on Tachibana Masamune's face is at this moment, in Minamoto's eyes, it is just a superb and outstanding performance at best, because Minamoto is the person closest to Tachibana Masamune and Eri.
All the family heads here need to know how Tachibana Masamune and Eriki interact with each other on weekdays.
It is true that Tachibana Masamune made all arrangements for Eri Yi very carefully, almost to the point of meticulousness, but this meticulousness only stayed at the material level. In the past, Tachibana Masamune had no father-daughter communication when facing Eri Yi.
A father who has a guilty heart for his children should never be like this. Minamoto is completely unable to understand the indescribable fatherly love his father Uesugoshi has for him from Tachibana Masamune's care for Eriko.
What chilled Minamoto the most was not the lie that Tachibana Masamune spread in front of all the family heads that Eri was his daughter, but Tachibana Masamune's heavy and serious tone, as if Eri was really him.
Like a daughter whom he cannot recognize, this shows that Masamune Tachibana has thought up this rhetoric in advance and rehearsed it countless times, otherwise his emotions would not be so realistic, and even the trembling in his voice would be just right.
I have to admit that at certain moments when the truth is exposed, playing such a bitter card can indeed turn the situation around. When I think of Masamune Tachibana facing the mirror every day, practicing his kind fake smile, his helpless sorrow, and his samurai’s temper countless times.
Jue Ran... Yuan Zhisheng's heart stopped when he thought of this man adjusting his expression with his hands over and over again to make his non-existent emotions look more realistic and in place, putting on false masks for himself.
I couldn't help but feel a chill.
But now is not the time to expose Tachibana Masamune. Even if we want to expose Tachibana Masamune's true and ugly face to the family heads, we should not do it in front of Tachibana Masamune. We must also allow Tachibana Masamune's plan to proceed smoothly. Now Minamoto Chisheng can only
I can watch with cold eyes as this clown shows off his superb acting skills and prepared scenes in front of everyone.
"But... why?" Sakurai Nanami looked at Tachibana Masamune in confusion and asked the doubts in the hearts of all the family heads, "If the Uesugi family head is really your daughter, Mr. Masamune, why do you deliberately hide this truth from everyone?
, and why did you let the head of the Uesugi family succeed the Uesugi family instead of the Tachibana family?"
"No, I didn't deliberately hide it from everyone. I only wanted to hide this truth from one person from the beginning to the end... I didn't want Eri to know." Masamune Tachibana shook his head slowly and said in a sad tone,
"This is also the reason why I arranged for Eriko to enter the Uesugi family. I owe all this to that child. I dare not let Eriki know that I am her biological father. I am afraid to face her as a father because
I have no right to let that child call me father."
"Mr. Masamune, why did you say this?" Fuma Kotaro raised his long, snow-white eyebrows.
"Originally I thought I would take this secret to my grave, but now there is no point in hiding it any longer." Tachibana Masamune sighed slowly, "I believe you all know that although Eri is very capable, she has always suffered from...
There is a serious bloodline problem, her bloodline is extremely unstable."
"Yes, the ability of the Uesugi family leader is really terrifying, so it's not that I don't trust you, Mr. Masamune, but from the perspective of hybrid species genetics, it is difficult to conclude that you, Mr. Masamune, are the biological father of the Uesugi family leader." Shizuo Miyamoto
Suddenly speaking, the genius director of the research institute analyzed from a professional perspective, "With all due respect, Mr. Masamune, with your bloodline, it is almost impossible to give birth to a descendant with a strong bloodline and ultimate speech spirit like the head of the Uesugi family. Science cannot
It would be a lie...unless Mr. Masamune, your wife, the mother of the head of the Uesugi family, is a female ancient dragon."
"Eri's mother is not a female dragon, but a very common hybrid. Her mother is Russian, not even a descendant of the White King." Masamune Tachibana whispered, "But I am indeed Eri's father, and
He is Eri's biological father. Science does not lie... Because in fact, Eri's bloodline when he was born was far less powerful than it is now. He was just an ordinary mixed-race baby, and his bloodline strength was not even as strong as that of most foreigners today.
Heirs of the family."
"What do you mean?" Miyamoto Shio was stunned, and he frowned slightly, "You mean, the bloodline of the Uesugi family has awakened the day after tomorrow? But even if it really awakens, the bloodline of the Uesugi family does not have the stability and stability of the 'Emperor'
Due to genetic conditions, according to the rules, the bloodline strength of the head of the Uesugi family should not exceed yours by much."
"Or do you want to say that the bloodline of the head of the Uesugi family has evolved?" Miyamoto Shio shook his head, "But so far, there is no precedent for the bloodline of ordinary hybrids to evolve on their own in the records of the Yanliu Research Institute. There are only two types that can.
The only way to change the purity of the bloodline is a certain bloodline refining technology secretly held by the secret party, and injecting drugs to increase the proportion of dragon blood in the body."
"The Miyamoto family leader's guess is very close, but it's not an injection of drugs." Tachibana Masamune said, "It's dragon blood... Eri's bloodline was contaminated by the ancient dragon's fetal blood."
"Dragon's blood!" Shizuo Miyamoto was stunned, his eyes widened, and he murmured, "So that's it... That's it!"
"The fetal blood of the ancient dragon does have the effect of improving the purity of the bloodline, and even promotes the evolution of speech spirits, but it will also cause serious pollution to individuals who come into contact with the dragon's blood. Although the Yanliu Research Institute has not tested it, the dragon's blood
The effect should be several times more powerful than the 'Mongolian Potion' used by the Mongolians." Miyamoto Shio seemed to have discovered a new world, "Then why does the head of the Uesugi family have such powerful abilities and such super unstable abilities?
Bloodline, everything can be explained!"
Dragon's blood, this kind of thing does have incredible effects. It is a precious treasure and a deadly poison.
If a piece of pure dragon blood could be obtained, the research on genes and bloodlines of the Ganliu Research Institute should have made step-by-step progress long ago. However, Miyamoto Shio has also been suffering from the lack of suitable research materials. After all, dragon blood is a kind of
Precious and dangerous things can indeed be encountered but cannot be obtained, so the Yanliu Research Institute can only speculate on the direct effect of dragon blood on the hybrid body based on the records left in ancient books and documents.
Today, someone told Miyamoto Shio that there was an individual contaminated by the ancient dragon's fetal blood living next to him, and his behavior happened to be in line with the speculations of the Yanliu Research Institute. For this kind of almost neurotic Miyamoto Shio
As a researcher, how can it not be exciting?
"Originally Eri was supposed to grow up like a normal girl. She should have the right to live an ordinary life. But because of my fault, my daughter was contaminated by dragon blood and she was deprived of her in that accident.
Everything has been destroyed." Masamune Tachibana said painfully, inserting his fingers into the roots of his hair and tugging at the snow-white temple hair, "Originally I hid Eri in the mountains outside Tokyo to recuperate, but I watched Eri
Eri's illness was getting worse and worse, and I knew I couldn't delay it any longer, because I couldn't lose my only daughter, so I took Eri to the Snake Qihachi family to take care of her, and equipped her with a specialized medical team.
Riyi's condition has finally eased, and her talents have been put to good use in the Sheqihachi family."
"Actually, the one I want to thank the most is Tsubasa." Tachibana Masamune looked at Minamoto Tsusho in the first seat, "When I brought Eri to the family, I told Tsubaso that I hope he will love her as a sister.
, over the years, Jiaosheng has indeed become a reliable older brother. Without Jiaosheng's company and care, Eriki's character will only be more closed-minded than it is now."
Masamune Tachibana stood up and bowed deeply to Minamoto Chisei who was sitting at the head of the table. It seemed that he really thanked this junior like the eldest son from the bottom of his heart for taking good care of his daughter.
Masamune Tachibana's move made Minamoto nauseous... "Take care of him like a sister"? Eri is his sister herself, and a fake father expresses his sincere thanks to him for taking care of his biological sister over the years.
, Yuan Zhisheng couldn't help but feel a little more disgusted with this hypocritical man.
But no matter how cold Minamoto was in his heart, he couldn't show it to his face, so Minamoto just looked at Tachibana Masamune who couldn't bow, waved his hand and said: "Eri trusts me, and I should take care of her.
Don’t take it too seriously, Mr. Masamune.”
When Tachibana Masamune raised his head, he took a deep look at Yuan Zhisheng. He quietly returned to his seat without saying anything else. The relationship between the men who were once as close as father and son has now become strange.
And subtle.
"But Mr. Masamune, nothing you said explains the inevitable connection between the fact that the head of the Uesugi family is your daughter and the fact that you secretly raised Deadpool under the Genji Heavy Industry." Fuma Kotaro looked at Tachibana Masamune and said.
"I took Eri to the Kakiki Hachi family not because of how perfect the family's medical conditions are, but because I used the clues left by the king to find a way to delay the deterioration of Eri's bloodline." Tachibana Masamune
explain.
"Is this method related to Deadpool?" Fuma Kotaro asked.
"Yes, it is not so much a method as it is a 'special medicine'. This 'special medicine' can temporarily suppress the bloodline's out-of-control situation, and its effect is probably similar to chemotherapy for albinism and cancer patients," Tachibana Masamune said.
, "The most important ingredient of this 'special medicine' is the fetal blood of the snake-shaped Deadpool."
"Deadpool's fetal blood?" Miyamoto Shio was stunned.
"Yes, the serum that inhibits evolution can be extracted from the body of Deadpool's fetus, and Deadpool's mother and fetus must be snake-shaped, which means that Deadpool must be a descendant of the White King before he transforms into a dragon.
Mixed race." Tachibana Masamune nodded, "Although I haven't figured out the principle yet, it probably has something to do with the unique mental stability of the White King's descendants."
"Is there such a thing?" Fuma Kotaro also had an incredulous expression on his face.
Miyamoto Shio even took out a notebook and pen from the lining and started writing notes. As he wrote, Miyamoto Shio's pen paused, leaving a dark ink ball on the notebook. He raised his head and looked at Tachibana Masamune.
Asked: "The head of the Uesugi family was contaminated by the dragon's blood. The dragon's blood promoted the evolution of the bloodline in her body. Isn't this similar to the 'ghost' injected with the monster potion? Since the fetal blood of the snake-shaped Deadpool is not good for the head of the Uesugi family,
If it is effective, it should also be effective on other 'ghosts' in the family...but Mr. Masamune, why have you never disclosed this method?"
"Because according to the family's judgment, the vast majority of 'ghosts' are considered dangerous objects simply because they have dangerous bloodlines. At this stage, the serum has no effect on them. The vast majority of the meng ghosts
That's it, they are only potentially threatening, but their evolution has not yet begun." Masamune Tachibana whispered, "And for those whose bloodline is out of control, the role of the serum is only to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. We can only delay their transformation into dragons.
The speed is far from achieving a radical cure, and for those who take the initiative to inject Menggui potion... they have degenerated into 'ghosts' from the bottom of their hearts, and the spiritual degeneration cannot be saved by drugs."
"Perhaps these are all excuses I made for my own selfishness. The most fundamental reason is actually... I don't want people in the family to know that Eri is a 'ghost'." Masamune Tachibana's eyes turned red, "As a member of the family, I
Leader, the goal is to wipe out the monsters, but my only daughter is a 'ghost'... What a sad fate this is!"
