Liang Yi Gan also appeared here alone. His daughter Liang Yi Mana was not with him. His wife had finished her chores and returned home two days ago, so she had extra time to take care of the children.
He came here to meet someone, someone he hadn't seen in the past two days, but who was with his wife.
"Mr. Liang Yi, good morning. Thank you very much for coming to pick me up at the airport."
"Ms. Toosaka, good morning. This time, I came here to meet Mr. Li."
The two principles are the same, and they get straight to the point.
He saw the face of the young man standing next to Rin Toosaka. A few days ago, his wife quickly resolved all the issues and returned to Tokyo.
Li Mo asked, "Hmm? To see me? Liang Yi Gan Ye, what do you want?"
"You've seen 'her', haven't you?"
"'She'? Oh, you mean 'Him'. Yes, I have, if that's possible. I'd rather not have seen 'Him'."
It was like a hero who just walked out of the Novice Village and met a big devil. Li Mo was still a little scared when he encountered such a big guy, mainly because "He" didn't give any benefits at all. If he gave a little benefit like Aleister, then Li Mo would think that the other party was amiable.
"I see. Did 'He' say anything to you?"
Liang Yi Gan also knew the existence of "Liang Yi Shi", which was an existence outside of theory.
"Some weird words. Maybe they came out of curiosity." Li Mo said.
He speculated that the reason why "Ryougi Shiki" appeared was probably because of curiosity. He was a tourist from outside the world, and to him, he was full of mysteries. It might even involve "all kinds of things" in the future.
Very troublesome.
Liang Yi Gan also nodded, indicating that he understood the situation.
Chapter 606 How about completing the transaction now?
What does the word "Him" specifically refer to? After hearing the conversation between Li Mo and Ryougi Mikiya, Toosaka Rin was very curious about this "Him" in the language.
To satisfy her curiosity, Toosaka Rin also tried to ask Li Mo. But the other party shook his head and refused, and then separated. He was not going to follow the two to meet El-Melloi II.
then……
When she arrived at the Galan Hall, which looked like an abandoned commercial building but was actually a magic workshop, she saw her professor, the monarch, El-Melloi II. As soon as they met, Rin saw that the wrinkles on his forehead were so obvious.
Then I looked at Gray, then Ergo, and finally at that guy Matou Shinji. I could see negative emotions on everyone's faces. Some were sad, some were confused, and some were angry.
"Excuse me, what happened?" asked the gentle man next to her who was wearing glasses.
"It's nothing serious. It's just that Yejie Akira and Bai Ruolong were captured by the Yejie family."
Liang Yi Ganye: "Did someone from the Ye Jie family find this place?"
"That's not the case. From the very beginning, the Yejie family didn't care much about Yejie Akira's actions. They planted a spell in Yejie Akira's body, and they could pull Yejie Akira back anytime and anywhere. In order to stop the spell, Bai Ruolong was also brought in." El-Melloi II said.
Toosaka Rin: "But didn't the Yajie family ask you to find Yajie Akira? Could it be possible?"
El-Melloi II: "Yes, that was just a cover."
Things have become very clear at this point. Previously, the Night Robbery family commissioned El-Melloi II to find the heir kidnapped by the Wandering Sea Magician, but it was just a cover. What was this cover hiding? This is a question mark.
"Matou Shinji, I remember you should know that Yazhe Akira, right? How can you act so calm?"
To be honest, when Rin Toosaka saw the current Matou Shinji, she felt that he was a little strange. He was not different from the arrogant rich second generation before, but different from the excellent student she knew.
Matou Shinji's fate was changed three years ago when he met Li Mo. After he embarked on the path of magic he had always dreamed of, he became a different person. He began to be introverted and became a rational guy.
Of course, the other party is still unfaithful, but at least not as annoying as before.
And where is Shinji Matou at this moment?
There is no expression on his face, like a volcanic crater. Is it a dead volcano that cannot erupt? Or is it erupting?
"Why can't you be so calm? It's true that the Yajie family is a traditional Japanese demon-slayer family, but they are also members of the magic path. And I have seen the cruelty of the magic path in the Matou family. Toosaka Rin, you should have heard the truth from the Kage, but things described in words are far inferior to what you see with your own eyes."
There is almost no difference between the families who embark on the path of magic. This is the experience of Matou Shinji after he embarked on the path of magic. So he just sighed, because the path of magic is like this, it tramples on human nature. But he was also angry. It feels really bad to be concealed by others.
The Night Robbers seemed to treat him and others as tools. This feeling of being despised made Matou Shinji very unhappy. Moreover, the style of the Night Robbers reminded him of the old Matou family. That was thirteen years ago, the story of the Fourth Holy Grail War. His father was in a daze, his uncle aged instantly, and he lived in an ice cave every day for the next ten years.
A familiar feeling emerged.
Does the Yejie family really want Akira to be the heir?
If he was born in another magic family, then Matou Shinji would not have doubts. For the magic family, inheritance is more important than life and death. But being born in the Matou family, Matou Shinji knew that this concept was just an unspoken rule, not an iron rule.
The head of the Matou family has been a single person since two or three hundred years ago. Yes, if the head of the family can live forever and pursue his own magic path, why does he need his descendants to inherit his magic path?
Matou Shinji sensed this.
Toosaka Rin: "That's right, I thought you've changed a lot during your time in Tokyo.
"Come on, the business world is not that simple. Toosaka Rin, you underestimate me too. My cell phone is ringing. Sorry, I need to see who sent me the text message." Matou Shinji said.
Obviously, no one opposed him. After looking at the message on his mobile phone, Matou Shinji looked up: "It's not my personal matter, but a letter from Mr. Li Mo."
"What did that guy say?" Toosaka Rin said.
Exclusive to Matou Shinji: "He said that there is a piece of news that he has not told us. A few months ago, Bai Ruolong's master, the magician of the Wandering Sea, came to Tokyo and reached an agreement with the Yejie family. He does not know the specific content of the agreement."
The direction of the story deviated from everyone's original idea. But it made Matou Shinji more determined. Did the Yorozuya family really want Yorozuya Akira to be the heir of the Yorozuya family? If so, why did they care so little about Akira? With such a harsh approach, don't they care that the magic of the Yorozuya family will be cut off in Akira's generation?
It is difficult to succeed, but it is easy to fail.
Shinji Matou, who entered the business world, understands this principle very well.
"Mr. Liangyi, do you have any opinions?" El-Melloi II interrupted at this time and asked Liangyi directly. In the past two days, he had already seen this man's ability in intelligence gathering.
If the man was given enough time, El-Melloi II doubted there was any information in the world he could not find.
Liang Yi Gan also said: "Earlier, Mr. Matou said that when Miss Akira was taken away, something like a mask appeared on her face. I know someone who may be able to help me."
El-Melloi II: "That's great. Rin is here too. Let's split up into two groups."
The monarch said this, and when all the information flashed in his mind, he had roughly known the whole picture of the matter. If he followed the speculation, the final result would probably be a sad ending.
……
……
"Honestly, Giz. Are you really not afraid that your disciple will make a mistake? If you are not careful, your disciple will be eaten."
Tokyo is very large, and the twenty-three wards represent the most prosperous part of the country.
Li Mo was walking with a handsome man, a Wandering Sea Magician named Gizzi, who was a beautiful boy who could be the top star in a gigolo bar.
But just like himself, the other person's actual age could not be seen from his appearance. After parting with Ryougi Mikiya and Toosaka Rin at the airport, he started looking for Giz directly.
The process went smoothly because the other party did not cover his tracks at all.
"My disciples will never make such low-level mistakes."
"What you mean is, if someone makes such a low-level mistake, he is no longer your disciple, right? I don't really understand your educational philosophy at Wandering Sea. I only care about knowledge. If the deal is invalidated because of your disciple's failure, then I will be unhappy."
Li Mo knew that the final outcome would be good. But judging from the current situation, when Bai Ruolong fell into the hands of the Yejie family, there were only two possibilities. Either Bai Ruolong devoured the god of the Yejie family, or the god of the Yejie family ate Bai Ruolong. It was natural for a person who devoured a god to be devoured by a god.
Knowing the ending, but turning around to say the possibility of the opposite ending, the answer to this is simple.
Li Mo said, "Do you want to complete the transaction now?"
Chapter 607: The Transaction with the Wandering Sea Magician
Magicians are all greedy, because those who are not greedy cannot be called qualified magicians. The road to the Root Vortex is difficult, a road that no one has ever walked. Therefore, a qualified magician is one who greedily eats everything that is useful, like a glutton.
Li Mo is not a qualified magician. He is greedy, but he will not lose his humanity because of it. In front of ordinary people, he will restrain his greed.
But Giz is obviously not an "ordinary person". On the contrary, Giz is the kind of guy who is unscrupulous and has no psychological pressure on Li Mo.
Wandering Sea is the most mysterious organization in the Magic Association. What does mysterious mean? It means strangers. Why should we care about the other person's thoughts? Li Mo doesn't care much about the other person's attitude.
"Are you too greedy, Li Mo? Getting something for nothing is not enough to satisfy your greed? Are you still going to push for more? Although I am a pacifist, I will not fight."
Fighting is not an end, but a means.
Li Mo knows this truth. He doesn't like fighting very much, but he also likes fighting. The former is because he knows that this thing seriously disrupts order, and the latter is because he knows that fighting is the best way to solve problems. Oni no Tsuji Muzan, Surut, etc. all use fighting to solve problems.
Now, Li Mo just wants some benefits.
Li Mo: "Now we are in a chain of suspicion. I am worried that you will not give me the knowledge after this is over. After all, I got something for nothing, and it is in your interest to breach the contract. And if you give me the knowledge now, you are worried that I will sabotage it."
Zero-sum game. Li is very familiar with this term. He and Giz are now trapped in this chain of suspicion. Of course, he also knows that he is at a disadvantage morally. He promised not to exchange the other party's knowledge, and no matter how you look at it, the other party seems to be in the wrong.
But…now thinking back to our meeting in Singapore, was it me who approached him, or was it him who approached me? This is a question that makes people think about it.
Geez, what are you thinking about?
"How about I take a step back?" Li Mo spoke before waiting for Giz's answer.
"Oh, I haven't even expressed my anger yet, and you're backing down? Are you really a magician?"
Once again, magicians are greedy. Even the magicians of the Wandering Sea are like this. They are completely different from modern magicians. The magicians of the Wandering Sea do not target the root. It is just something that the magicians of the post-AD era created themselves. As for all the mysteries of the post-AD era, the magicians of the Wandering Sea sneer at them.
The mystery before BC is the real mystery.
Gizzi, of course, is no exception.
Li Mo: "No, I just believe that interests are the most stable relationship. You agreed so readily at the beginning that I didn't think much about it, but now it seems that you have been planning to default on your debt, right?"
"Oh? Is that what you think?"
"Isn't it? It's a bold move to use your own disciple as a bet. But you already expected your disciple to win, right?"
As early as two or three months ago, the disaster of Yejie's family was doomed.
Giz didn't answer. He said, "What's your weakness? What can you do to impress me?"
"Knowledge, of course, is exchanged for knowledge. How is your situation, Giz?" Li Mo said.
Giz: "After all, I am also a member of the Sea of Wandering. I don't care about ordinary knowledge."
Li Mo: "Of course I know. General knowledge is not enough. But, can't we have a good discussion? This matter has changed from blackmail to a transaction. A transaction is something that is consensual and it is also a give-and-take thing, isn't it?"
Transaction, Li Mo suddenly understood why Gao Yanskaya liked this thing.
Interactions between people are often chaotic and unpredictable. Therefore, it is difficult to grasp the sense of boundaries. However, transactions are different. The boundaries of transactions are so clear. One hand delivers the goods, the other hand pays the money, and there is nothing else involved.
The deal was finally done.
Li Mo has a lot of knowledge in his mind. With the entire world of Magical Index behind him, all the knowledge he proposed is new to Giz. Magical Index and Type-Moon, the two worlds have certain similarities in their systems, but they also have great differences. There are phases in the Magical Index world, and magicians are good at gaining power from phases, and the so-called phases are actually many myths.
