Chapter 512: Storm (2)

Chapter 512: Storm (2)

Under the guidance of Tokugawa Xiuguang, Chiba Michiko arrived at a bamboo-and-wood Pavilion in the Fusang embassy.

When she walked in, Reikyuu Gishi, who was sitting on the tatami, immediately stood up. “Miss Chiba, you’re here!”

“I just got some fruits from China. Let’s have a taste together!”

Fusang’s agricultural products were usually the most precious products in the world.

They were also the main export products of Fusang.

The one that Riko took out was a luxury product of Fusang’s export product, namely the honeydew from Osaka.

This was very precious.

One unit would cost several thousand Chinese yuan in the Northern Zhou Market!

Chiba Michiko tried to eat a piece, and her eyes lit up. “Oh, it’s delicious!”

She looked at Riko and asked, “Your Highness, do you still have this kind of fruit?”

“I want to take two to give to a Lord!”

In response, Riko replied with a smile, “Of course!”

She turned to her adoptive mother, autumn day, and said, “Please prepare two of the best Osaka Melons for me!”

“Okay!” The middle-aged woman dressed in traditional Fu sang clothes immediately bowed to her.

Chiba Michiko immediately became happy. “Thank You, Your Highness!”

“You’re welcome!” Ligong’s adopted son smiled even more happily.

“Oh right!” Chiba Michiko asked while eating a melon, “I heard that your Highness has something to ask of me?”

Ligong’s adopted son nodded. “Yes… There are certain things that Fusang and I have to ask of Miss Chiba!”

As she spoke, she solemnly faced Chiba Michiko, placed her hands on her sides, and bowed deeply. It was a standard Fu sang etiquette.

“Miss Chiba, please promise me something!”

The officials of Fu Sang’s embassy who were kneeling on both sides also bowed deeply.

Chiba Michiko panicked when she saw this, so she quickly helped Ligong Aiko up. “Your Highness…”

She stammered, “What exactly is it that you need help with?”

Ligong Aiko looked at the young lady in front of her and took a deep breath, “Miss Chiba, do you know that Fusang is at a critical juncture of life and death?”

“Ah!”Chiba Michiko was at a loss.

Wasn’t Fusang doing well?

Why was it at a critical juncture of life and death?

Moreover, even if the sky fell, Great Xia would still be holding it up.

What kind of situation was this?

Ligong’s adopted son looked at an official on the left and said, “Please tell Miss Chiba about the predicament our country is facing!”

“Alright!” The official walked out on his knees and knelt in the middle of the attic. Then, he stood in front of a white line that was marked out. He placed his hands on both sides and bowed deeply. “Miss Chiba, I’m Yujou Dangkang, who is in charge of transcendent being affairs in the Fusang police station!”

“I’m honored to meet you today!”

Chiba Michiko looked at him foolishly. “Hello!”

This was a high-ranking official.

She thought to herself.

…

Ling Ping’an turned on the television in the room for a rare occasion.

Almost all the news channels on the television were discussing the new thing, namely the Legend of Nightmare.

It was different from the craze on the Internet.

Most of the commentators on TV were very cautious and conservative.

Just like the retired chief whose surname was Zhang.

“What kind of virtual reality technology is there?”

“I think it’s probably the improvement of the virtual projection technology. At most, it’s fake virtual reality!”

“As for what superpower?” He laughed. “I’ve worked in the Federal Empire’s Defense Military Science and Technology Committee for decades, but I’ve never heard of it!”

“Everyone must believe in science!” Chief Zhang said meaningfully.

Ling Ping’an who listened to it also agreed with him.

Nowadays, many people would do anything to attract attention online.

Some years ago, some unscrupulous movie producers had hyped up some ‘ghost documentary’. They used ghosts as a cover to trick people into entering the movie theater.

Ling P[ing’an excitedly bought tickets, but when he entered the movie theater, he almost fell asleep.

His brother might as well watch an old ghost movie!

From then on, Ling Ping’an became wary of the supernatural things on the internet.

Who knew if the person on the other end of the internet who was describing ghosts, demons, and Immortals was just a con? Or was he trying to use the popularity of the internet to do some bad things?

Just as he was listening to the comments, a piece of news suddenly appeared on the television.

“Breaking news: Today, the Federal Empire’s Economic Crime Bureau announces that a major insider trading case has been cracked!”

“The Wang family, which owns Jiyang Development the Group, has been found guilty of more than ten felonies such as falsifying data, manipulating stock prices, and tax evasion over the years.”

“Currently, the Economic Crime Bureau has arrested and summoned more than a hundred key figures suspected of being involved in the case!”

On the television screen, a familiar scene appeared for Ling Ping’an.

It was exactly the scene he saw downstairs.

A few young men were being escorted by the police as they walked into the police car.

“So they are the yamen of the Jiyang Development Group!” Ling Ping’an was relieved.

“Such a big group, I didn’t expect it to do such a thing!” He shook his head.

The Jiyang Development Group was one of the top 500 listed companies in the Federal Empire.

It was said that their assets were all over the country, and they even participated in the industrial layout of the world.

In Jiangcheng City, there was a landmark building, the Jiyang Building, which was the property of this corporation.

He didn’t expect such a big corporation to engage in insider trading and even evade taxes.

“These rich people… are really…” Ling Ping’an sighed.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

“Knock… Knock… Knock…”

Ling Ping’an stood up and walked over to open the door.

It was that little girl from Xinluo. Was her name Yin Mingxiu?

“Miss Yin…” Ling Ping’an looked at her. “Please come in!”

Yin Mingxiu seemed a little nervous. Her small hands clutched her dress. She looked like a little friend who did something wrong and was afraid of being discovered by her parents.

“What happened?” he couldn’t help but ask.

…

“Miss Chiba, you should know about the feathered fox, right?” Yoshino asked.

Chiba Michiko nodded.

Of course she knew about the Feathered Fox because she was the victim of the Feathered Fox Rebellion.

She had heard from her adoptive parents that they had found her in the ruins of Osaka.

She was a baby girl wrapped in a white swaddle.

The Chiba couple could not bear children, so they adopted her and raised her as a daughter. In the end, they brought her to this land as a refugee and were settled in Jiangcheng City.

“Then do you know…” Yujou Dangkang asked, “Why did the feather-coat Fox set off the night of a hundred demons in the Hanshin Region?”

“What is his purpose?” Chiba Michiko asked foolishly

“He wants to awaken the true king of Demons!”

Fear made him take a deep breath.

“Your Highness!”

Even if it was an enemy, Yujou Dangkang was still using honorifics.

“Your Highness?!” Chiba Michiko did not understand. “Who are you referring to?”
