Chapter 254 Parents ([-])

--"I need you."

This was what Hui Yuan read out at first.

From her seemingly indifferent expression, if you look closely, you can detect some hidden weakness and pleading.

Even though he knew that this expression was probably staged... Hui Yuanchu's thoughts still stirred for a moment.

——But it was just for a moment.

Because Oroku Aoi put away that expression again and only showed it for a moment - it was so short that it was like an Easter egg to reward him.

There was no trace of weakness on her face now, and she just said: "So, what do you think of Zheliu?"

Hui Yuanchu had no choice but to put away his thoughts as well.

He changed his mood and replied seriously: "Well... I think Zheliu probably didn't tell the whole truth."

"Ok?"

"The reason why he decided to fight against his son Zheli... was it really for you, or for the continuation of the family? I always feel that the reason should be more than that."

Zhe Lukui nodded slightly: "I think so too.

"I said that in his eyes, I am just a pawn... So, he is not fighting against Zheli for my sake. My existence only provides him with a useful tool to fight against Zheli."

"That is to say - even if I don't show up, Zheliu will stand opposite Zheli for some reason." Zhelukui slowed down and said, "But what that important reason is, I really can't think of it yet. .”

Hui Yuanchu also agreed.

He made the cicadas think for a moment and asked: "In addition, do you know why Zheli doesn't recognize you?"

Zhe Lukui's expression stiffened for a moment: "I don't know."

Hui Yuan pretended not to notice at first.

He said: "I feel that Zheliu actually knows the answer to this question. Just now, he just pretended to brush it off as if nothing happened."

"That question doesn't matter at all..." Zhe Lukui said with a cold face, "Defeating Zhe Li can solve all problems."

"That's right. Once you defeat him, it will be much easier to pry the answer out of his mouth."

"No, I just mean that I never care why my enemies hate me, I only know that I want to defeat them." Zhe Lukui had no expression on her face, lowered her head and took a sip of tea, "...I am not the Virgin of Fraternity. , do you still care about the psychological construction of the enemy?"

Hui Yuanchu could only nod silently.

Then Orukui continued to stare at him: "Is there anything else?"

"Something else?" Hui Yuanchu was stunned for a moment before realizing that Zhe Lukui was still asking the previous question - what did Hui Yuanchu think of Zhe Liu.

"It seems... nothing?" Hui Yuanchu scratched his head and said.

Zhe Lukui looked very dissatisfied.

"Think again!" she said somewhat menacingly.

So Hui Yuanchu quickly closed his eyes and returned to the throne.

Zorokui's attitude can be regarded as an answer, and it can be regarded as clearly telling him that there is definitely something that he has overlooked in the things that just happened.

So he began to command the cicadas, recalling his own memory.

From the moment he entered this big house, all the memories he received with this body were scenes of synaesthesia synthesized by the five senses.

In fact, at that time, only a small part of these scenes were focused and entered into the main consciousness.The remaining information will generally be treated as garbage and temporarily accumulated in the back of the mind until it is forgotten.

But Hui Yuanchu can retrieve this pile of "past" at any time and search for the treasure he wants from it again.

In all the scenes, the cicada group collected and analyzed the reactions related to Zuriliu.

Finally, he discovered some clues at two brief points in time.

That is, the two moments when he said Zoroku's lifespan and promised his support for Zorokui,

...Zheliu's attitude didn't seem to be pure surprise and happiness, but something more.

But as for what's extra... Hui Yuanchu couldn't analyze it.

He told Oroku Aoi the result, and then said: "There is indeed something wrong. But as for what kind of thing is wrong, I can't tell."

Orokui exhaled.

"Is that really what it feels like..." She murmured to herself, then suddenly raised her head and said to Hui Yuanchu, "Xiao Hui, do you remember where you came from?"

For a moment, Huiyuan thought she was talking about time travel.

But soon Zhe Lukui stared at him closely and added: "I mean, your power, strength...or, flesh and blood that is different from yours."

So, Hui Yuanchu calmly answered the truth: "No, I don't remember it at all. When, where and how did the so-called 'flesh and blood of Atalabadu' enter my body."

Zhe Lukui nodded slightly.

Then she said: "There is no evidence for what follows, just some kind of intuition."

"I have a feeling - Zheli has known about you for a long time, and so has Zheliu. He wants to see you, it's more like confirming something he already knew."

"Perhaps, both of these people have known about your existence for a long time...in the worst case scenario, even before my first contact with you."

Orokui unconsciously stretched out her fingers to draw circles on the table and murmured to herself: "What a terrible 'adult'."

Hui Yuan also began to think about this issue.

Oroku Aoi was hinting at a terrible conclusion: the source of his power was the control of one of those two people.

But Hui Yuanchu himself looked at this issue from a deeper perspective.

...After all, he still has two secrets, "Barbero" and "Time Travel", which Oroku Aoi doesn't know yet.

The time travel may have been created by Barbero, and the power of Adabado was almost certainly his handiwork.

But the question is... Are those two people really deep enough to "arrange" Barbelo?
At least judging from Zheli and Zheliu's attitudes towards him - it didn't seem like that.

In short, Huiyuan first lowered his voice and tentatively said: "Divination core?"

"Barbelo" and "Inaia" are one in a sense.He had also seen Inaia appear above his throne.Therefore, the roles played by the two in this matter may be similar, only different in aspects.

Zhe Lukui was silent for a moment and replied: "She said, no."

Hui Yuan didn't know if he should breathe a sigh of relief.

"Forget it, let's discuss this issue after we find more clues." Zhe Lukui was very straightforward and put the matter aside for the time being.She took out her phone and looked at the time and said, "The time Sophia gave us is almost up, let me quickly explain everything that needs to be explained."

"I have now been relieved of all duties and grounded in this place until the review is completed. That's why I said that I will not send you out in the near future."

"Dismissed? Why?" Hui Yuanchu asked in surprise.

"You still dare to ask?" Zhe Lukui sneered, "It's not because of the good things you did before."

"Really? It has such a big impact? But it seems that I myself have not been punished -" Haiyuanchu said halfway, and then he stopped talking under Zhelukui's gaze.

Zhe Lukui gave him a cold look and continued: "Of course, not only will I be under house arrest here, but all my external communications will also be banned."

"In other words, during this period, you really can only rely on yourself."

"But on the other hand, you won't have nothing to do. Zheli has become your acting supervisor and should give you some errands to do."

"Anyway—fools like you better be careful," she said at last. "Who knows what traps lie in here?"

...Is it a trap for breaking away?
Hui Yuan initially frowned.

Only then did he remember what he wanted to ask just now.

"By the way, since we're talking about this...then it's a trap for Zheli to give me Creator-level certification all of a sudden?" he asked.

"That's not true. Because I proposed the certification, he just agreed." Zhe Lukui replied.

"what--?"

Oroku Aoi explained: "The Personnel Department who gave you the Creator Level Certification is Oriliku's person. And to pass the motion to isolate me for review, you need the nod of the Supervision Department under Oriliku's control. I said this It’s reached this point, you should understand, right?”

"Zheli first made a motion on the board of directors to suspend me for review."

"Of course, under normal circumstances, you would have to pay a certain price to block this matter."

"But this time, I proposed a different strategy to Zheliu than before - I can be isolated for review, but in exchange, Zheli must recognize you as a creator and give you corresponding treatment."

"So it's a card swap on the table. It's also a winner-takes-all gamble."

"Zheli's bet is a creator-level certification, which is equivalent to an anonymous board seat."

"And what I'm betting on is that I believe in you." In the end, Zhe Lukui stared at him, threatening him with eyes full of pressure, and said, "Even if I am temporarily expelled from the field, even if Zhe Li finds you , I gave you other conditions...you will also wait until I come back, right?"

Hui Yuanchu immediately promised: "Of course! I will always be yours!"

"Hmph." Zhe Lukui snorted with satisfaction.

Then she stopped talking, just lowered her head, silently staring at the movement of her tea spoon stirring back and forth in the tea cup, as if she was absent-minded.

After a while, she whispered: "That's it. You can go."

So Hui Yuanchu stood up and left.

When he reached the gate, he turned and took another look.

Indoors, Orokui sat at the table with her back to him.The ringing sound of the porcelain cup and the fork and spoon that was still being heard showed that she was still stirring the cup of tea meaninglessly.

……

In the car going back, Hui Yuanchu was the only one.

He kept looking out the window until the mountain road turned the first bend and the huge house was completely obscured by the mountain, then he looked away.

But the last image of Zhe Lukui’s back is still lingering.

He suddenly realized that this back made him feel a bit like the one he met on the first night in the park.

It's the kind of --

Hui Yuanchu sighed unconsciously.

He closed his eyes, opened the Epinoia panel, and easily opened Oroku Aoi's profile picture in his friend list.

The tens of thousands of meaningless messages she sent last time also showed that the scroll bar on the right side of his dialog box could not be dragged to the end.

He also typed a line of meaningless ellipsis in the input field.

After hesitating for a moment, he clicked "Send".

[Huiyuanchu:...]

...Anyway, Oro Aoi shouldn't be able to receive this message when her communication is silent.

Hui Yuanchu muttered in his heart——

- "Ding Dong".

Along with the prompt tone, the other party's response quickly popped up in the dialog box.

【Zhe Lukui:?What's the meaning? 】

Hey?
- "Ding Dong".

The next message has been sent.

And this time it was a voice message. Hui Yuan was caught off guard and started playing automatically.

"Is it... lonely? No way, haven't we just been apart for a few minutes?"

The girl's voice was half deliberately staged surprise, half real banter, and with the help of Epinioia, it rang directly in his mind.

Hui Yuan almost jumped up in the car.

He hurriedly replied: "Aren't you banned from communicating?"

"I thought you had realized it." The reply from the other side was still a voice message.

Oroku Aoi said in a careless voice, "Since Sophia is willing to help us cover up the conversation just now, what does it mean to help me open a communication backdoor in Epionia?"

Huiyuan didn't know what to say for the first time: "Are you cheating?"

"Yes, so what?"

What should I say... The thousands of words in Hui Yuanchu's heart were finally merged into two words: "——Okay!"

"...What are you excited about?"

　There are two things I would like to explain by the way. The first thing is that I would like to thank many readers for their help in catching bugs, but...it's not that I don't want to change it, but it seems that I don't have the authority to modify the chapters that have been too long, so I need to find an editor. So I can only let him go... Second, try to set the update time at 9.55 pm in the future. If not, there is no need to wait. thanks
