Bai Heqing smiled and nodded, agreeing with her guess.
“If left unchecked, his lust will surely consume all of you in the end.
In essence, he is the biggest obstacle to your survival, but this obstacle is very special and difficult for you to deal with, so I have to take him away."
His tone was calm and straightforward, as if he was talking about a very ordinary matter.
But Miyano Shiho could only remain silent after hearing this.
As a vested interest in this matter, she could not change Shirakawa Kiyoshi's mind, and there was nothing she could do to help him. Following him to see Karasuma Renya was already the greatest help she could give him.
But she still had one doubt.
"Does your...wife know about this?" Miyano Shiho couldn't help but ask, and she said the word "wife" somewhat awkwardly.
"I'll tell her after it's over." Baihe Qing replied, implying that Sharon was not aware of the matter.
"Is this really okay?" Upon hearing this, Miyano Shiho couldn't help but ask again: "The person you want to kill is her father after all, and she is also yours..."
"Shiho, no matter what we do, we should try our best to eliminate the influence of our own emotions."
Shirakawa Kiyoshi glanced at Miyano Shiho who suddenly became shy and said slowly:
"I have been trying to hide my physical condition from her. After all, with her personality, if she knew my current state, she would probably become angry.
By then, the Thousand-Faced Witch might turn into the Thousand-Faced Butcher, who might be even more frightening than even Reger, me..."
After making a joke that might be a little inappropriate, Shirakawa Qing continued:
"She probably hasn't realized what I want to do yet, but if I tell her that I want to kill Karasuma Renya at this moment, based on her understanding of me, she will definitely be able to deduce this immediately. This will be the most troublesome part for me..."
Sharon would never just sit there and watch Bai Heqing give up his life. She had experienced this once before... Bai Heqing was very clear about this, and that was why he decided to keep it a secret from her from the beginning.
This idea is cruel and selfish, but in Baihe Qing's opinion, it is very suitable.
Of course, there was another reason that he didn't say, which was that Shirakawa Qing was actually worried that Sharon would do something stupid after knowing his situation...
"Many things in this world are always so forced."
Thinking of this, Bai Heqing sighed softly.
"I'm not sure I can convince her, so I can only choose to do this..."
It was more than a day later when Miyano Shiho actually met Karasuma Renya.
Although she and Kudo Shinichi had previously speculated that Karasuma Renya was likely to have settled in Japan, it now seemed that this was obviously wrong and he had always been in the United States.
It was in an underground fortress that was dozens of meters deep underground, and one even had to take an elevator to go down.
With the sound of light footsteps, they walked into the endless dark corridor blocked by layers of electronic doors. After being searched for who knows how many times, Miyano Shiho finally saw the old man who looked like a withered straw in a room full of metallic smell.
Yes, it looks like dry straw.
It was not what Shiho Miyano had imagined before, that kind of person sitting behind the curtain where only a blurry black shadow could be seen, and who looked unfathomable at first glance, like the mysterious image of the final boss.
Karasuma Renya was lying on a hospital bed. Beside his window were many medical machines that were familiar or unfamiliar to Miyano Shiho. There was an IV inserted on the back of his hand, and a breathing mask on his face, with his chest rising and falling slightly.
His hair had already turned gray and was sparsely combed behind his head. His face was extremely old, with the common age spots on his skin, and he had a decayed smell about him, as if he was about to return to dust.
All of this proves that the old man in front of him is infinitely close to the edge of death, but no one knows what method he used to force himself to stay on this edge.
He is Karasuma Renya, a person who made Miyano Shiho feel fear from the bottom of her heart when she first met him.
It was at this moment that she finally understood why Shirakawa Kiyoshi insisted on taking Karasuma Renya away before his own life came to an end.
Because just as Shirakawa Kiyoshi said before, this is indeed a person who can devour the world with his desire.
Even though he looked so weak that even Miyano Shiho felt that she could easily kill him now.
But when she really met Karasuma Renya's eyes, those eyes that seemed to be able to suck everyone's soul into them and were soaked in pure darkness still made Miyano Shiho feel fear from the bottom of her heart, so much so that she subconsciously hid behind Shirakawa Kiyoshi.
"Master, she is Shirley."
However, Shirakawa Qing pulled her out from behind without mercy and pulled her to Karasuma Renye's bedside.
"Hmm!"
Knowing exactly what Shirakawa Kiyoshi meant, Miyano Shiho forced herself to suppress the fear in her heart. She raised her head with a slight tremor and looked at the sick old man on the bed.

"Master, she is Shirley."
However, Shirakawa Qing pulled her out from behind without mercy and pulled her to Karasuma Renye's bedside.
"Hmm!"
Knowing exactly what Shirakawa Kiyoshi meant, Miyano Shiho forced herself to suppress the fear in her heart. She raised her head with a slight tremor and looked at the sick old man on the bed.
At this time, in this room full of metallic texture, which made Miyano Shiho suspect that even a small-yield bomb could not blow it up, in addition to the three of them, there were several humans wearing black clothes and crow masks.
The reason why the word "human" is used is because Miyano Shiho cannot determine the gender of these people based on their appearance.
They each stood in a corner of the room, with a cold murderous aura that seemed to be condensed into a physical entity, and all of this murderous aura was pointed unreservedly at the smiling man in the middle of the room - Bai Heqing.
Miyano Shiho knew very well what they were guarding against and who asked them to be here.
In fact, she and Shirakawa Kiyoshi did not meet Karasuma Renya immediately after returning to the United States.
Yesterday, after Shirakawa Kiyoshi contacted Karasuma Renya and told him that he had found Shirley, the two of them were taken to a hotel to rest for a while.
Then this rest lasts for a whole day.
During this day, Baihe Qing was unusually calm. He seemed to have anticipated this situation. Not only did he not object to it, but he actually spent the entire day leisurely in the hotel, watching TV, reading newspapers, and reading novels...
He even prepared breakfast and dinner for Miyano Shiho personally, just like before.
It was as if he had completely forgotten that he was here to kill Karasuma Renye.
At the beginning, Miyano Shiho could not help but feel inexplicably worried and anxious.
She didn't understand. They had been in the hotel for several hours. Why didn't Karasuma Renya see them? Could it be that he had noticed something? And why weren't you worried at all, Shirakawa?
However, Miyano Shiho always maintained the utmost restraint. She neither asked any questions nor tried hard to show any abnormality.
It was not until that night, after the two of them had rested, that Bai Heqing gently wrote a sentence on the palm of her hand under the quilt.
【He is waiting.】
Miyano Shiho suddenly realized.
Karasuma Renya was also waiting. Just as Shirakawa Kiyoshi told her, Karasuma Renya was a person who was extremely afraid of death. She was even so afraid that she had to be on guard against her own son-in-law.
That's why he deliberately left the two of them there for a whole day. He just wanted to see if Shirakawa Qing would show even the slightest strange reaction during this wait with no clear time limit. If so, even if it was just a little bit, they would probably never have the chance to meet Karasuma Renya in person again.
The hotel where the two of them are staying right now is probably full of cameras and eavesdropping devices. Maybe at this moment, Karasuma Renya is staring at them from behind one of the screens.
Naturally, the tricks of an old fox cannot be hidden from another old fox.
Shirakawa Kiyoshi saw through Karasuma Renya's thoughts from the very beginning, so he just waited calmly.
The only thing that surprised him was that he didn't expect that Karasuma Renya would be even more impatient than he thought.
He originally thought that he and Miyano Shiho would have to stay in this hotel for at least two or three days, but he didn't expect that after only one day, Karasuma Renya lost his patience.
The temptation of eternal life can be so great.
But this is not his fault. After all, Karasuma Renya's situation is similar to that of Shirakawa Kiyoshi. Both of them have one foot in the coffin. How can Karasuma Renya not be anxious?
Well, just a side note here.
There was only one bed in the hotel that night. Miyano Shiho was very shy before going to bed, but Shirakawa Kiyoshi's words made her so angry that she turned into a puffer fish.
[Shiho, you've met Sharon a few times before, right? You should know that, to be honest, I've always liked girls with big breasts and good figures. As for those with flat bodies that even artificial intelligence can't tell whether they're male or female when their faces are covered, I really don't even want to take a look at them.]
[Okay, stop being so shy, go to bed early and get up early. If you really care, I'll go over and sleep on the floor.]
When Baihe Qing said this, his tone was really calm.
But it was this calmness that hurt Miyano Shiho the most.
What is a tablet?!
What do you mean even artificial intelligence can't identify men and women? !
She was so angry that she exploded, and didn't care that there was a surveillance camera in the room. She jumped up and was ready to fight Bai Heqing.
Of course, in the end she still didn't let Bai Heqing sleep on the floor.
By the way, she fell asleep very quickly that night. She just wrapped herself in the quilt, curled up her body, and fell asleep quickly while breathing heavily. When she woke up the next day, Bai Heqing was already making breakfast.
This made Miyano Shiho wonder if Shirakawa Kiyoshi was worried that she would be unable to sleep at night because of her restless thoughts, so he deliberately said those words to stimulate her so that she would not have the mind to think about other things and go to bed early?
This is very possible. The old fox has never been a person who likes to joke casually before. This was completely deliberately said after playing with her temper.
“It’s a miracle…”
The voice in her ear brought Miyano Shiho's distracted thoughts back to her mind.
The voice was old and hoarse, with a weak breath and a creaking sound as if it came from an old machine without lubrication.
Karasuma Renya looked at Miyano Shiho, and some substantial light seemed to be emitting from his deep eyes.
"You all...get out."
With his skinny hands like dry branches supporting himself on the bed, Karasuma Renye tried to sit up tremblingly.
As he finished speaking, the men in black wearing crow masks quickly left the room, but Bai Heqing remained calm.
Because he already knew that Karasuma Renya would definitely do this.
What they are going to say next will be the most important content, and how can the secret of eternal life be told to others so casually?
What's more, they are just slaves.
"It's really... a miracle..."
After these people left, Karasuma Renya repeated this sentence again, raised his hand, stretched it tremblingly towards Miyano Shiho in front of him, and gently touched her cheek.
For a moment, I don’t know if it was a psychological effect or some other reason, but an extremely strong smell of decay, like rotten wood, suddenly hit me in the face.
Miyano Shiho's body was shaking more obviously, but she did not hide away. Instead, she closed her eyes and allowed the dead tree-like hand to caress her face casually.
"Yes, a miracle."
Shirakawa Kiyoshi just stood aside, watching Karasuma Renya who was getting increasingly excited with a smile.
