Chapter 571: Pure Land Thoughts and Sleepless Nights
Chapter 571: Pure Land Thoughts and Sleepless Nights
Uncle Kyosuke's gaze seemed to be glued to the distant sky.
In his eyes, the chaotic clouds seemed to have become a cage that imprisoned his son.
He took a deep breath, his voice as hoarse as sandpaper rubbing against wood, "Yunanari, Daddy is sorry for you and your mom..."
He turned his head, his eyes red and bloodshot, "Ten years, Yuzhe Lihei, my son, has been trapped in that damn place for ten years..."
His voice was trembling, as if he would collapse at any moment.
"Do you know what the Pure Land is? It's a hell on earth! It's filled with all kinds of experiments and inhuman torture..."
He clutched his chest in pain, his body trembling slightly, as if an invisible hand was strangling his throat.
"They also took you away and used you as a test subject! They injected you with all kinds of drugs, causing you to endure pain that ordinary people could hardly imagine..."
His voice became lower and lower, as if he was talking to himself.
"And I was slandered by them as a murderer and became a wanted criminal at the level of a ferocious ghost..."
He recalled the days of fleeing, sleeping in the open air, avoiding capture,
Like a stray dog, he is looking for his daughter and rescuing his wife and son.
"I once tried to return to the Fengji family and rescue you, but..."
He lowered his head weakly, his voice barely audible, "I failed..."
"I was severely injured by the Fengji family's divine oracle and nearly died..."
Uncle Kyosuke sat down slowly, his eyes empty, like a body without a soul.
"I thought I would never see you again in this life..."
He closed his eyes in pain, tears slid from the corners of his eyes, carving deep grooves on his wrinkled face.
The atmosphere in the room was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe. Only the suppressed sobbing of Uncle Kyosuke echoed in the air.
Yunari sat quietly by the side, listening to her father's story.
My heart felt like a bottle of five flavors had been overturned, with all kinds of flavors intertwined together, including sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty.
She couldn't imagine that her mother and brother had experienced such cruel things.
The father endured the pain and guilt alone.
She slowly walked behind Uncle Kyosuke and gently hugged him from behind. The soft touch made Uncle Kyosuke tremble slightly.
"dad,"
Yunari's voice was soft but firm, "You've tried very hard..."
These few simple words flowed like a warm current into Uncle Kyosuke's cold heart.
He took a deep breath, tried hard to control his emotions, and held Yunari in his arms. He squeezed a smile on his pale face that was uglier than crying.
"Yuuna, Dad will definitely rescue your brother! When the time comes, our family will be reunited and we will never be separated again..."
His voice was still hoarse, but full of hope and strength.
"When the time comes, don't look down on your brother. He suffered a lot in the Pure Land..."
Yunari shook her head firmly, her tone firm.
"No, Dad, I won't despise my brother. I will protect him and never let him suffer again!"
Uncle Kyosuke hugged Yunari tightly, feeling his daughter's warmth, as if he had grasped a ray of light in the darkness.
He raised his head and looked into the distance again, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.
"Wait for me, Yuzhe Lihei, Dad will definitely come to save you..."
At the same time, in the core control room of Pure Land, high above Tokyo...
Above Tokyo, in the core control room of Pure Land, a different kind of tranquility was revealed in the silence.
An Yuqing sat on the futon, and the chessboard in front of him seemed to reflect the universe in his heart.
He gently placed a piece down, looking relaxed and contented, as if this game of chess was not a match against others, but a chance to hone his own state of mind.
"Jiang Er'er, come here - it's your turn again." He smiled, his voice like the morning breeze, soft yet charming.
Not far away, Jiang Er'er floated out silently from the flickering electronic screen and landed on another cushion as lightly as mist.
She looked at the chessboard, her brows slightly furrowed, and the corners of her mouth pursed.
"Another dead end!"
Jiang Er'er sighed helplessly, her eyes filled with regret, "You old fox wins again."
An Yuqing laughed, with a mischievous glint in his eyes.
"I'm not an old fox, I'm just an expert." He shrugged lightly, as if it was a matter of course.
"Huh! You're always like this, bastard."
Jiang Er'er stood up angrily, her movements exaggerated like a little actor playing the leading role on stage.
Her steps on the wooden floor made clear sounds like wind chimes.
An Yuqing winked at her and smiled meaningfully, "You're cute even when you're angry."
When Jiang Er'er heard this, the anger on her face instantly turned into a few wisps of shy blush.
Her eyes flickered, as if she was angry, but also with a hint of an unconcealable smile.
"Hmph, so conceited!"
After tidying herself up a bit, Jiang Er'er turned and walked towards the wardrobe, changing into a blue bathrobe with small silver flowers dotted on the lapels like the stars in the sky.
When she appeared in front of An Yuqing, she was a little uneasy and expectant, with her cheeks slightly flushed, like a freshly baked bun.
An Yuqing looked at it carefully and gave sincere praise after a moment.
"You look so pretty. The blue color makes you look like a little fairy." His words were brief, but each word was filled with sincerity, making Jiang Er'er's heart blossom.
"Really? Then I'll wear this yukata today."
She gently brushed away the dust on her sleeves, as if to hide the blush on her face, but her tone could not hide the joy.
The atmosphere in the control room became as warm as the spring sun, as if the whole world was caught up in this quiet yet vivid moment.
The bright light gently shines on the two of them, as if time has stopped at this moment, drawing a beautiful pause for this brief peace.
An Yuqing couldn't help but look out the window. The huge control room floating in the air seemed to have been drifting in the endless sky for a long time.
His fingers tapped lightly on the table, the sound like falling petals, adding a touch of suspense to the comfortable atmosphere.
Then, he gently turned to Jiang Er'er and said, "This seems like a dream, but we know that it will eventually wake up..."
His voice gradually weakened, but it seemed as if an invisible force was echoing in the air.
It sets the stage for the following story, as if leading people in an unknown direction.
An Yuqing's gaze drifted out the window, as if penetrating the barriers of the pure land and seeing the dim lights of the bustling city.
"How long have we been drifting here?" he muttered to himself, with a hint of melancholy in his tone.
Jiang Er'er walked up to him and followed his gaze. "Ten years." Her tone was calm, but with a barely perceptible tremor.
Ten years, how many decades can we have in our life?
They are like exiled travelers, trapped in this illusory pure land, isolated from the world and racing against time.
"ten years……"
An Yuqing repeated the number with a touch of emotion in his tone.
"After ten years of hard work, it's time to unsheathe our sword."
"I have already retrieved the information about Yuzheli's black son."
Jiang Er'er turned and walked towards the control console, her slender fingers dancing on the keyboard, and lines of code flashed across the screen, pouring down like a waterfall.
"I have completely penetrated the prison area and obtained the authority." Her tone was calm, but with a hint of unquestionable confidence.
"it is good!"
An Yuqing: "With the authority of the prison area, we can find Yuzheli's black son, and then..."
His voice paused, a cunning glint in his eyes, "Then, it's ours..."
Jiang Er'er raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.
She pulled up a photo, which showed a handsome young man with a hint of stubbornness between his brows. It was Yuzhe Lihei's son.
"That's the goal."
She pointed to the photo and said, "I have locked down his location and can arrest him at any time."
"Not urgent."
An Yuqing waved his hand.
"Don't alert the enemy yet. We need a foolproof plan."
He walked to the chessboard, picked up a chess piece, and gently placed it on the board.
"We need to take it one step at a time, steadily and steadily, in order to eradicate the Fengji family!"
Jiang Er'er nodded in agreement.
She continued to operate the computer, searching for information about Yuzhe Lihei's son.
Suddenly, her fingers stopped. "Wait," she said solemnly, "I think I found something else..."
"What?" An Yuqing asked curiously.
Jiang Er'er took a deep breath and said slowly: "In addition to Yuzhe Li's son, I also found information about another person..."
"Who?" An Yuqing asked.
Jiang Er'er hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Thief Cao..."
"Thief Cao?!"
An Yuqing stood up suddenly, a flash of shock in his eyes, "You mean...Cao Yuanhai?!"
Jiang Er'er nodded, her tone affirmative, "Yes, it's him! And..."
Her voice paused, and a complex light flashed in her eyes, "He seems to have some connection with the Fengji family..."
"Contact?" An Yuqing frowned and fell into deep thought.
Cao Yuanhai, he was not unfamiliar with this name. He was a legendary figure, a ruthless character that made countless people tremble in fear.
How is he related to the Fengji family?
What secret is hidden in this?
An Yuqing walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down at the brightly lit city below. Her eyes were deep, as if she could see through everything.
"interesting……"
He murmured to himself, with a meaningful smile on his face.
"It seems that this trip to the Pure Land is even more exciting than we imagined..."
He turned around, staring at Jiang Er'er with burning eyes, and said firmly, "Jiang Er'er, get ready, we're leaving right away!"
Jiang Er'er nodded, she walked to the armory, picked out a sharp dagger and put it on her waist.
Then, she walked to An Yuqing's side and said firmly, "We can leave at any time!"
An Yuqing grabbed Jiang Er'er's wrist and said hurriedly, "Let's go!" After that, the two of them flashed and disappeared in the control room.
Leaving only an empty room and a flickering screen,
A line of eye-catching words - "Target locked: Yuzhe Lihei's son, Cao Yuanhai..."
