Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 860: 525, even a master has a master_2

Jindai Yunxiu walked out of the darkness, holding a long katana in her hand: “This person poses a great threat to Yun Luo. He can deter and take away Shikigami. With only 7 days left before the crossover, Kong Yu, you must find him and let me kill him.”

“Hmm,” Jindai Sorajima nodded: “Finally, Yun Jue, Yun Ye, and Yun Wu are no longer in the way. They are the proxies of the ten directors. With them here, we couldn’t do anything. Now that the Mysterious Business Department is in our hands, what do we do next?”

Jindai Yun Luo chuckled: “In this vast Island Country, nearly ten thousand Time Travelers in the future will all be firmly under our control. This is a force to be reckoned with. Within the clan, the ten directors tighten their grip on power too much. Without new power, we can do nothing. Now, it’s different. Our plan has finally begun.”

Jindai Yunxiu and Jindai Sorajima listened quietly.

Jindai Yun Luo folded his hands into the wide sleeves of his hunting suit and continued, “Those old guys seize this and that body every day. Seven of the ten directors have lived for over a century. If they don’t disappear, the young people of the Jindai family will only stagnate along with them.”

This is the true faction of young blood within the Jindai family. They became Time Travelers to find a foothold within the cracks of the family.

Immortality is indeed a good thing, but if the elders in a family live forever, what are the young people supposed to do?

Ordinary people hear that the Jindai family’s ancestors can live forever and think that the family’s power will remain solid, but they don’t realize that this immortality is actually a disaster.

Jindai Yunxiu said, “With four chosen ones dead, we will definitely be interrogated by the ten directors when we go back.”

Jindai Yun Luo smiled: “That’s why the twelve years of playing this charade between you and me was significant. Don’t worry. We didn’t kill them. If you want to blame someone, blame Daylight. By the way, withdraw the people from Hokkaido.”

“Is that little girl worthless now?”

“No,” Jindai Yun Luo slowly shook his head: “She has value, but I still say, don’t try to use the fate of a little girl as a bargaining chip.”

…

…

Countdown to the crossover, day seven.

In the morning, Yangyang walked out of the internet cafe with the little girl. They both stretched as if they had spent the night playing games together.

Originally, Jinguji Maki had her hair down, but Yangyang had now styled it into twin ponytails for convenience.

Yangyang lazily said, “Your mid laner skills are still slightly behind mine, but the gap is not that big anymore. Keep it up. Remember, even if you go back home, you must keep practicing…”

“But I still want to play support…” Xiao Zhenji said.

“Eh,” Yangyang sensed the surroundings: “The people from the Mysterious Business Department… have all withdrawn. Xiao Zhenji, your master has succeeded. You can go see your mom.”

Jinguji Maki suddenly lowered her head: “Master must have made a lot of sacrifices.”

“Yeah,” Yangyang said calmly: “He likely drew all the Jindai family’s suspicions onto himself. That’s why the Mysterious Business Department withdrew from here… don’t cry just yet. He’ll be fine. Seriously, how can a Knight be a crybaby? No tears in eSports!”

Jinguji Maki stared blankly at the auntie, thinking, what on earth is going on?

Yangyang took her little hand and walked toward her mom’s house. The little girl asked in confusion, “Have they really left?”

“Yes, don’t worry. If I say they’ve left, then they have. No one can escape my senses,” Yangyang confidently replied.

As the two were approaching the building where the girl’s mother lived, they saw a middle-aged woman wielding a garbage bag as a weapon, trying to drive away those lingering downstairs.

The woman shouted angrily: “I told you she’s not my daughter anymore! I don’t want her! If you want the reward, go find her! Why come to me?”

The woman’s hair was disheveled, and her clothes were dirty, indicating that her remarried life wasn’t going well.

She looked defeated by life.

The woman yelled at those waiting for the bounty: “Get out of here!”

“Don’t think we don’t know what you’re up to. We bugged your home. You and your man were planning to trade your daughter for the bounty!” said one private detective. “Isn’t that reward money burning a hole in your hands?”

“Mind your own business!” The woman threw the garbage she was holding, spilling its contents all over the private detective.

This scene was too cruel for the little girl.

Before Yangyang could react, the little girl turned around and walked away.

“Hey!” Yangyang followed her: “How about auntie treats you to breakfast? What do you want to eat?”

Jinguji Maki didn’t reply. She silently walked toward the coastline.

The warm scene she had imagined didn’t appear; instead, the harsh reality shattered the last of her hopes.

She arrived at the chilly coast and sat on a black reef. Yangyang did not know how to comfort the child.

Xiao Zhenji suddenly said: “Auntie Yangyang, you don’t need to comfort me. I’m not that sad.”

“That’s good…”

Xiao Zhenji continued to look at the sea: “Actually, I didn’t really want to see her to begin with. I just didn’t want our master’s effort to go to waste. Now, I’m more worried about him.”

“You can call him,” Yangyang dialed the number and handed the phone to Xiao Zhenji. “Here, it’s connected.”

Before the phone was passed over, Qing Chen’s tired voice came through: “Hello?”

“Master,” Xiao Zhenji said tearfully.

She hadn’t cried the entire way, but hearing Qing Chen’s voice made her burst into tears, all her grievances pouring out.

“Did you see your mom?” Qing Chen seemed to have known from the start that this meeting wouldn’t go well.

This world is like that. Someone who abandons you once will abandon you countless times. This was a lesson Qing Chen learned from his own life.

But the little girl wanted to see her mom, so he created the opportunity. It was her decision; he had no right to refuse.

Xiao Zhenji sobbed: “Master, I miss you so much.”

“It’s okay, we’ll see each other soon,” Qing Chen said with a smile. “Did Auntie Yangyang make you play games all night again?”

“Oh, no,” Xiao Zhenji looked at Yangyang, who was making faces, and quickly asked, “By the way, Master, Auntie Yangyang said you’re a Time Traveler and that you’ll soon be in danger… You must come back safely.”

Qing Chen laughed gently: “It’s okay… Master has a master too.”
