Chapter 430: The Last Supper: The Style of the Showa Knights
The underground base of Consortium X.
"This is a letter sent to you by Sonosaki-san." Shen Yun handed a letter to Sonosaki Saeko and said.
"My father gave it to me? What is he doing?" Sonosaki Saeko frowned, opened the envelope, took out the letter inside, and glanced through it.
The general meaning is to let her attend the dinner and confess to Sonosaki Ryubei.
"Let me confess?! What a joke!" Sonosaki Saeko crumpled the letter into a ball, and an angry look appeared on her pretty face.
Shen Yun picked up the letter that was crumpled into a ball by Sonosaki Saeko, unfolded it and took a glance at it.
"Are you going?" Shen Yun asked.
"Don't go!"
"I think it's better for you to go. Maybe this is the last time your family gets together." Shen Yun said meaningfully.
When Sonosaki Saeko heard this, she showed some hesitation, but finally nodded and said, "Okay."
……
Narumi Detective Agency.
Hong Xiangzi bandaged Sudo Kirihiko's wound. Sudo Kirihiko sat on the sofa, silent.
Although Sudo Kirihiko was also affected by the fear-doped body, he was not hit by the dark quagmire of the fear-doped body. As long as he stayed away from the fear-doped body, he could more or less return to normal.
but……
Sudo Kirihiko looked up at Shotaro Sae, who was wrapped in a blanket and looked very nervous.
Shotaro Zuo was completely consumed by fear, and even the slightest noise would make him scream.
"Is this the power of Terror?" Sudo Kirihiko said with a bitter smile.
If he were also hit by the quagmire of fear, he would probably not be much better than Shotaro Sa.
Even though he was only slightly affected, he was no longer able to muster any thoughts of resisting the fear-mixed entity.
"It's all because of me..." Hong Xiangzi's face was full of self-blame.
And she seemed to have made up her mind. She got up and left the Minghai Detective Agency and rushed to the Sonosaki house.
……
The Sonosaki family at this time.
In the brightly lit and empty restaurant, all the seats were filled for the first time in a long time.
"Hahaha, you're so late, come here. Come and taste the dishes I made myself today. Let's celebrate Wakana's departure as a family." Sonosaki Ryubei smiled and waved to Philip who pushed the door open.
At this time, Shroud, wearing a black windbreaker and a bandage on his face, walked past Philip, came straight to the dining table, and threw the envelope in his hand on the table.
"Mom?!" Philip looked at the whole family and sat down in his seat. He was a little surprised and said, "Dad, Mom, and two sisters. My family is all here..."
Philip looked at this extremely strange atmosphere, holding a piece of bread, and thought to himself: "Is this our dining table?"
"This day has come so long~" Sonosaki Ryubei said happily.
Sonosaki Ryubei scooped up a spoonful of soup and drank it. Then he said, "Remember those days when we dug together?"
"I'm still a little scared~ of that black well..." said Sonosaki Wakana.
"Ah, Wakana said something like that." Sonosaki Ryubei smiled faintly, picked up the key on the table, and said, "But it doesn't matter, I have this."
After saying that, Sonosaki Ryubei used the key to open the lock on the wooden box.
"Everyone!" Philip, who had been silent for a while, suddenly stood up and said, "Let's not talk about the past for now. It's a rare opportunity for all family members to get together. We should take this opportunity to stop all disputes!"
"Family? Stop joking, someone come here." Sonosaki Saeko sneered and said, "Whether it's you, me, or Wakana, in the eyes of our father, I'm afraid we are just tools to complete his plan."
"Oune-chan, how can you say that?" Sonosaki Wakana frowned and said.
"Wakana, do you know?" Sonosaki Saeko turned her head and looked at Sonosaki Wakana who was sitting on her right, and said, "The reason you are favored by father is not because father dotes on you, nor because you are excellent, but because you are more compatible with Clay Doll."
"That's why you were chosen by father to become the core of Gaia's advancement plan."
"In the final analysis, you and I are the same, both of us are used as tools by father. However, my role is to manage the affairs of the museum, while you and the newcomer are simply tools used to withstand the power of Extreme in order to complete father's plan."
"And before, I actually envied you for something like this. Now it's really ridiculous when I think about it." Sonosaki Saeko shook the red wine in the glass, then laughed at herself and drank the wine in the glass.
Philip looked stunned.
"Saeko! Shut up!" Sonosaki Ryubei slammed the table and shouted.
Sonosaki Saeko curled her lips and said nothing more.
Sonosaki Wakana also fell silent, her mind was very confused.
Although she didn't want to believe what Sonosaki Saeko said, the current situation forced her to believe it.
"This dinner party is to celebrate Wakana, who will surpass humans and become comparable to gods today. It is also a banquet for you and Fumino to repent." Sonosaki Ryuhei left his seat, came to Sonosaki Saeko, and said.
"Confession? Father, stop joking. The only thing I regret now is why I didn't see this clearly earlier and leave this home earlier. In this way, I could live a happier life." Sonosaki Saeko sneered and was too lazy to say anything more. She stood up from her seat and walked outside.
She just found it funny when she thought about how she had always been jealous and envious of her sister who was just a tool like her.
From her current perspective, it seemed ridiculous that she had worked so hard to prove to her heartless father that she was better than Wakana.
If she is a better match for Clay Doll, then isn't Wakana the one who is jealous of her?
No wonder her heartless father refused to even look at her. It turned out that all this was already destined. No matter how outstanding she was, her heartless father would not even look at her. So why should she care?
"Really?" Sonosaki Ryubei sighed, and did not stop Sonosaki Saeko, allowing her to leave.
At this time, Sonosaki Fumion also stood up from her seat, turned around and walked towards the door.
"Wenyin, are you leaving too?" Sonosaki Ryubei couldn't help but ask as he looked at Sonosaki Wenyin who was about to leave.
"I've already given up." Upon hearing this, Sonosaki Fumie paused and continued walking out.
"Wait! Nai-chan! Kasan! Don't go! Are you going to abandon your family?!" Philip hurried over, stopped Sonosaki Saeko and Sonosaki Fumion, and said anxiously.
"Family..." Sonozaki Saeko sneered, shook off Philip's hand, and said, "I am no longer a member of the Sonozaki family."
After saying that, he left Sonosaki's house without looking back.
"Casan..." Philip watched Sonosaki Saeko leave and looked at Sonosaki Fumion with pleading eyes.
Sonosaki Fumion looked at Philip gently under her sunglasses and said, "Your family is no longer Sonosaki, but Shotaro Sa and his family. Forget about it quickly."
As she spoke, Sonosaki Fumion also reached out her hand, gently stroked Philip's head, and said, "The ace is... Shotaro Sae."
As soon as she finished speaking, Sonosaki Fumino left the Sonosaki house without looking back.
"Shotaro Sa?" Sonosaki Ryubei walked up to Philip and said with a disdainful smile: "He's finished. There's no way he can cheer up again."
At this moment, Todoroki popped his head out from under the table silently, took out Evil Tail from the wooden box that had been opened by Sonosaki Ryubei, put it in his pocket, and then quietly left the restaurant and slipped out the same way.
Sonosaki Wakana saw what Todoroki did, but surprisingly she didn't say anything.
What Sonosaki Saeko had just said made her feel a little confused.
Does her father really like her because of family affection?
Or……
Is it just because she is more compatible with Clay Doll? Is it because she can accomplish the Gaia impart that her father has always dreamed of, that she can be liked and loved by her father?
She didn't dare to think about it any further, she was afraid of knowing the truth.
……
at the same time.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the Minghai Detective Agency seemed a little depressing.
Ming Hai Shouji couldn't bear to see Shotaro Sa trembling anymore, so he stood up from his chair.
However, the sound of Shokichi Narumi getting up from his chair scared Shotaro Sa.
After seeing that it was Ming Hai Shouji, Zuo Xiangtaro felt relieved and shrank back again.
Ming Hai Shouji came in front of Shotaro Sa, grabbed Shotaro Sa by the collar, and punched him in the face.
"boom!"
Before Shotaro Zuo could react, he was knocked to the ground by a punch from Shokichi Narumi.
Ming Hai Shouji suddenly attacked Zuo Xiangtaro, and no one present expected it.
"Ou Ya-san?" Shotaro Zuo covered his face and looked at Shokichi Ming Hai with a confused look, forgetting his fear for a moment.
"Odo-san, what are you doing?" Seeing this, Akiko Narumi hurriedly ran to Shotaro Zuo and tried to help him up.
"Shotaro, look at how pathetic you are now!" Ming Hai Shouji placed a mirror in front of Shotaro Zuo.
Zuo Xiangtaro looked in the mirror, his face was pale and he looked very anxious. He lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice: "Ou Yasang, I..."
"Can this little fear overwhelm you? Where's the courage that allowed you to sneak into the museum's freighter alone and follow me into the museum's research building? Where's the Shotaro I know?" Ming Hai Shouji grabbed Shotaro Zuo's collar, lifted him up from the ground, and questioned.
"I..." Shotaro Zuo opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.
"Back then, you were barely a novice, yet you had the courage to face the museum. How come now, with a power that even I can't match, you are crushed by fear?"
Upon hearing this, Zuo Xiangtaro's face was filled with shame.
"Shotaro, do you still remember what I entrusted you with?" asked Ming Hai Shouji, releasing his hand that was grabbing Shotaro's collar.
"Remember, Ou Yasang, you asked me to take good care of Philip..." Zuo Xiangtaro said in a hoarse voice.
"Now, we have to go to the Sonosaki residence to rescue Philip and stop Sonosaki Ryubei's Gaia Impact plan."
"Shotaro, you are my most proud disciple, don't let me down." After saying this, Shokichi Narumi put on his hat and walked out of the Narumi Detective Agency.
Sudo Kirihiko also tore off the bandages on his body and followed Ming Hai Shouji out.
Terui Ryu patted Narumi Akiko's hand, glanced at Zuo Shotaro, and followed him out.
"I..." Hearing this, Zuo Xiangtaro's blood boiled in his heart. Looking at Ming Hai Shouji's back, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go too!"
I am Ou Yasang's most proud and proud disciple. How can I be defeated by mere fear!
How can I retreat here!
I'm going to rescue my partner!
Shotaro Sae swallowed his saliva, and with the help of Akiko Narumi, he walked out of the Narumi Detective Agency tremblingly.
Seeing Shotaro Sae walking out of the office, Shokichi Narumi also had a faint smile on his face.
Shotaro, although not very mature, never let him down.
At this time, Hong Xiangzi, who got the Evil Tail and ran all the way from the Sonosaki family, also met the people who were preparing to go to the Sonosaki family in front of the gate of the Minghai Detective Agency.
"Ms. Xiangzi?! Where have you been?" asked Ming Hai Yaji when she saw Xiangzi running towards her breathlessly.
"This is the Evil Tail in the box!" said Hong Xiangzi, holding a cloth bag.
"Did you bring this back from the Sonozaki family? You really have extraordinary mobility..." said Akiko Narumi in surprise.
"So, you stopped Gaia from advancing?" Terui Ryuu asked, looking at the cloth bag in Hong Xiangzi's hand.
Hong Xiangzi took a breath, shook his head, punched the pillar at the door, and said angrily: "Maybe I'm wrong. Because I really can't imagine what effect that thing can have!"
As Hong Xiangzi spoke, he took out a brush from the cloth bag. On one side of the brush, there were several names written.
"Is this... a brush?" Sudo Kirihiko looked at the brush in Hong Xiangzi's hand with surprise.
Evil Tail is actually a brush?
What's the use of this?
"Odo-san, what does this mean?" Ming Hai Yaju turned to look at Ming Hai Shouji and asked.
"I'm not sure. We may have to ask Sonosaki Ryubei himself." Narumi Shokichi took the brush from Todoroki and handed it to Shotaro Sa, saying, "Let's go. If we go too late, we might not be able to catch up."
