ninja puppet master

Chapter 158 The Real Purpose

As the son of the daimyo of the land of wind, Huashu's mansion is not something that anyone can enter whenever he wants.

But Shi Lei was an exception.

When he came to the gate of Huashu's mansion with ten puppets of the soul-samurai version of [Resurrectionist], the guards outside the gate immediately stepped forward to salute.

"Lord Shi Lei, you are back. Her Royal Highness has sent us to look for you for several days!"

"Eh..." Hearing what the guard said, Shi Lei was stunned for a moment, "Didn't I leave a note for her?"

"We don't know about this!" The guard replied.

After finishing speaking, he looked at the puppet behind Shi Lei again, a gleam of amazement flashed in his eyes.

"My lord, who are the ten lords behind you?"

"Ha ha!"

Hearing the guards calling the [Resurrected] puppet "Master", Shi Lei suddenly laughed, then shook his head.

"They are not people, they are puppets!"

"puppet?"

Hearing Shi Lei's words, look at the ten [Resurrectionist] puppets behind him, wearing staghorn helmets and gorgeous armor, with one hand holding the handle of a knife.

The guard seemed to have thought of something, and once again showed a look of surprise on his face.

"Could it be...they are the same...life puppets like Mr. Wugui?"

"Life puppet?"

Hearing the guard say this name, Shi Lei raised his eyebrows in surprise, then nodded.

"The name is quite interesting, but to be precise, their name is [Reincarnated Puppet]!"

Speaking of this, before the guard could speak, Shi Lei patted him on the shoulder lightly.

"Okay, don't be so surprised. I'm afraid these guys will become your colleagues in the future. You have plenty of time to understand them. Take me to Huashu first!"

"Uh... Master Shi Lei wants to see His Highness? Please follow me!"

After speaking, he took Shi Lei into the mansion, and brought him all the way to Huashu.

Huashu was also very happy to see Shi Lei, and immediately stepped forward to give him a hug.

"Where have you been for the past half month? You left without saying a word. I couldn't find you and cried for several days!"

"Uh... I don't want this either, I'm going to mess with them!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his thumb and raised his finger to point behind him.

Seeing his movements, Hua Shu noticed the ten [Resurrected] puppets behind Shi Lei.

"what?"

It seemed that he was amazed by the gorgeous shape of the [Resurrectionist] puppet, and a bit of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"Shi Lei, this is..."

"They are [Resurrected], I have spent the past half month building them!" Shi Lei replied.

"Build?"

Hearing Shi Lei's words, Hua Shu seemed to think of something, and his eyes widened.

"You mean...they're the same as fog ghosts?"

"The essence is the same, but the function is different!"

Seeing Huashu's surprised look, Shi Lei immediately explained to him.

"The role of the fog ghost is actually an assassination, and the role of these [resurrected people] is to protect you, which is more suitable for you!"

"This……"

Looking at this group of gorgeous [Resurrectionist] puppets, Huashu's eyes flashed with admiration, but then he shook his head helplessly.

"Although I want it very much, I can't buy these puppets because of my current financial situation, so forget it..."

"Hey, Huashu, you're offended by what you said!"

Before Huashu finished speaking, Shi Lei gave him a blank look with a reproachful face.

"Don't forget, we are friends, and it would be too outlandish to ask me for money. These ten [Resurrected] puppet guards are given to you for free by me to protect your safety!"

Having said that, he lightly patted Huashu's shoulder again.

"I can't always be by your side to protect you, let these guys do it for you, as long as you are safe, it doesn't matter if you have money or not, haha!"

"Woo... Shi Lei!"

Hearing his words, Huashu was so moved that tears burst out, and hugged him again.

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

Shi Lei: "(ω`)"

Know how to repay, what a kind child!

Obviously he gave me 4950 million taels before, but now I only give him a puppet worth 300 million taels, and he is so moved.

Such a friend, if you don't cherish it, you will be struck by lightning!

Thinking of this, looking at the flower tree who was hugging him and crying, Shi Lei suddenly smiled, and then patted him on the back lightly.

"Okay, okay, we are friends, of course I will help you if you have difficulties, don't cry, it's not good for others to see!"

"Ok!"

Hearing Shi Lei's comfort, Huashu stopped crying, and nodded while wiping away tears.

"You're right. I'm the future daimyo of the Land of Winds. I can't let others see me as weak, or I'll be ridiculed as a woman!"

Having said that, he seemed to think of something, and immediately slapped his hands.

"Oh, I almost forgot, Hua Ming has always wanted to see you, do you want to go and see her?"

"No, let's forget it!"

Shi Lei rejected Huashu's proposal, and then heaved a long sigh.

"Hey, when we met for the first time in the Land of Winds, Shi Lei missed his life when he saw Shi Lei. It's better to miss each other than to meet each other. Let's not see each other anymore!"

Flower tree: "╭(°A°`)╮"

It sounds reasonable, but it's actually nonsense, right?

Just when he was hesitating whether to tell his sister the news of Shi Lei's return, he saw the little girl galloping over.

"Shi Lei!"

She yelled, and then rushed directly to Shi Lei's side, her red face was full of excitement.

"Are you back? Where have you been for the past half month? I sent a lot of people but they couldn't find you!"

"..."

Seeing the little girl's emotional state, Shi Lei didn't know what to say, so he could only reach out and rub her head.

"Don't look for me next time. A smart person like me has long said goodbye to innocence. Why do you use a relationship to exchange scars?"

Flower tree: "╭(°A°`)╮"

Come again?

Seeing that Shi Lei was about to enter the state of awkward song again, Hua Shu made a decisive move, sending someone to send away the reluctant little sister Huaming, interrupting his state.

At the same time, the topic was changed.

"Well...Shi Lei, I think that although we are friends, the ten puppets you gave me are too precious, why don't you make a request to me!"

"A request?"

Hearing Huashu's words, Shi Lei thought for a while, then nodded.

"Since you've said that, well, you can help me find a suitable venue in this wind capital, I plan to open a security company!"

"Security company?" Hearing the name, Huashu suddenly showed doubts, "What is that?"

"It is a department dedicated to protecting the safety of others, such as protecting nobles like you!"

Having said this, Shi Lei revealed a look of indignation.

"I think assassination is the most despicable act in this world, only the incompetent will use this method to achieve their goals!
In order to smash this despicable act, I decided to form a noble security company named [Resurrection Alliance] to protect kind nobles like you!

Hmm... By the way, earn a little hard work! "

Flower tree: "╭(°A°`)╮"

In the end, this is the real purpose, right?
