Miyamoto Kihide said respectfully: "Father, I know that kid will definitely try his best to find the hostage, so I placed her on Mermaid Island. Even if he searches the entire Kyoto, he can't find her."
Miyamoto Ranta nodded: "Yes, that makes me feel relieved."
"Mermaid Island?"
After receiving this news, Ye Bufan felt ecstatic in his heart. Although he still didn't know where Mermaid Island was, he was finally one step closer.
As his thoughts circulated, his true energy instantly broke through the acupuncture points blocked by Miyamoto Tsumugi.
How to find Mermaid Island? His first idea was to capture someone from the Miyamoto family and use the mind-catching technique to ask him.
But then he shook his head and gave up the idea.
After all, this is the home of the Miyamoto family. Once a member of the Miyamoto family is touched, it is likely to attract the other party's attention regardless of the consequences. Once the place is moved, it will be troublesome.
It seemed that we had to look for clues from outside. Thinking of this, he disappeared from the secret room in a flash and left the Miyamoto family.
He didn't have many acquaintances in Kyoto, so he headed straight for Qianmu's house after going out.
It was already midnight, and the entire Kyoto was much quieter than the hustle and bustle during the day.
At Qianmu's house, Liu Yun was meditating with his eyes closed in his room.
Suddenly she was startled, and she opened her eyes suddenly and saw a figure in the room, it was Ye Bufan.
"Master, why are you here?"
Liu Yun was filled with shock, knowing that the Qianmu family's defense was extremely tight, and it was almost impossible to sneak in silently.
Then she carefully checked outside the room to confirm that no one was there before coming back and asking: "Master, what are your orders?"
Ye Bufan asked: "How is things going? Is there any news about my mother?"
"Not yet." Liu Yun said, "I just returned to Qianmu's house and I didn't dare to move too much for fear of arousing suspicion from those people.
So far, no valuable clues have been found.”
Ye Bufan didn't say anything. He knew that this was normal. If it were so easy to find, it would arouse suspicion.
"Do you know where Mermaid Island is?"
"Mermaid Island?" Liu Yun thought for a while, "I have lived in the Big Dog Country for so long, and I have never heard of Mermaid Island."
"Don't you even know?"
Ye Bufan frowned, it seemed that this Mermaid Island was not very famous.
Liu Yun said: "This was originally an island country, with hundreds of big and small islands. I have only heard of a few well-known islands, and I am not sure about the others."
Ye Bufan asked: "Do you have a map here? Look it up and see where Mermaid Island is."
"There is a map."
Liu Yun quickly found a map, and the two of them checked it carefully, but ultimately found no information related to Mermaid Island.
Ye Bufan had some doubts in his heart, what was going on? Did Miyamoto Kihide lie to him? It was said to be unlikely. They couldn't find out that they were spying with their spiritual sense.
Liu Yun said: "Master, there are really too many islands in the Big Dog Country. The maps recorded on the map are only some well-known large islands, and there are also many nameless islands and reefs.
Maybe the Mermaid Island you mentioned is just the folk name and has not been included in the map."
Ye Bufan thought about the possibility, and then asked: "Is there any way to find this Mermaid Island? According to the information I got, my mother is probably hidden there."
"The best way to find such unknown islands is to find people who often work at sea.
The Qianmu family’s main business is manufacturing and does not involve marine fisheries, so they don’t know much about this aspect.”
Ye Bufan asked: "Which family knows this aspect best?"
"The Watanabe family." Liu Yun said, "The Watanabe family originally started out as a marine fishery. All their industries focus on the sea. They should be very familiar with islands of all sizes."
"knew."
After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he walked out the door.
"Master, where are you going? Why don't I think of a way to get some information from the Watanabe family tomorrow?"
"No need, your rash actions now can easily attract others' attention, so I'd better do it myself."
After Ye Bufan finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared from the room.
Arriving outside Qianmu's house, Ye Bufan was walking on the street.
Since he wanted to obtain information from the Watanabe family, the first thing he thought of was Watanabe Yui. As the eldest lady of the family, it must not be difficult to collect some information.
However, it is already late at night, so it is obviously not appropriate to go to Watanabe's house. It is not convenient for Watanabe Yui to look up information, and it may arouse other people's suspicion.
He did not act rashly, but found a deserted place to sit cross-legged and meditate, waiting for dawn before taking action.
Over at the Miyamoto family, Ye Bufan noticed something was wrong as soon as he left the control room, and immediately reported it to Miyamoto Kihide.
"What, you ran away again?"
Miyamoto Kihide was furious. What was this troublemaker doing again? Did he think he had caused enough trouble for the Miyamoto family?
He was angry, but he still had to find someone. Once Ye Bufan was discovered by the three major aristocratic families, it would probably be a disaster, and no one would be able to treat his father.
"Look for me quickly and report to me immediately if you find it."
As a result, the entire Miyamoto family came out in full force to search for Ye Bufan everywhere in Kyoto.
It's a pity that as a strong man at the martial saint level, if Ye Bufan didn't want to be exposed, how could he be discovered by them? After searching for a whole night, he still found nothing.
There was no other way, so Miyamoto Kihide had no choice but to give up in the end. Anyway, he had a hostage in his hands, and he would definitely come back in three days.
The next day at the Watanabe house, Watanabe Yui sat in her boudoir gloomily.
In all these years, she has never liked a man. This time she finally met someone she liked, but she became the enemy of the entire family.
Not only did he abolish Takenori Watanabe, but he also caused heavy losses to the family. This hatred may not be resolved.
Just when she was frowning, the mobile phone in her pocket rang.
Originally, she was not in the mood to answer the phone, but she accidentally glanced at the screen and found the word "Ye Jun" written on it. She immediately picked up the phone and pressed the answer button as if she had been given a shot of blood.
Yesterday at the auction, she had nothing to do so she entered her mobile phone number into Ye Bufan's phone, and also saved the other party's phone number.
"Ye Jun, where are you? Are you okay?"
Due to excessive excitement, Watanabe Yui's voice was trembling.
"I'm fine. Can I help you with something?"
"Okay, just say it."
Watanabe Yui felt very conflicted. Although she knew that the other party was an enemy of the family, she could not control herself at all and agreed immediately.
"Is it convenient for you to come out? Let's meet and talk."
The matter was so important that Ye Bufan didn't really believe in this kind of electronic product.
With the strength of several major families, it is possible that his phone number may have been monitored. If the other party knew that he had obtained information about Mermaid Island, it would be troublesome to relocate his mother to a different place.
"Okay then, I'll call you when I get out."
Watanabe Yui hung up the phone, tried to calm down her mood, pretended to be nonchalant, and then drove away from Watanabe's house alone.
When he got outside, he made sure no one was following him, and then he took out his cell phone again and dialed Ye Bufan's number.
