Barrier of Light

"Is this the so-called illegitimate child?"

Gu Shen stood outside the temporarily rented courtyard in the wilderness of Yinghai District, his eyes penetrated through the layers of obstacles and fell on the tied up Higashi Sei.

After finishing the handover from Binghai, he rushed back to Yinghai.

"good."

Song Ci crossed his arms and said angrily: "Kidnapping such a high-ranking person is really a loss. I sincerely agree with the boss of Beitang. If I want to do it, I have to do it with a big ticket."

"Don't worry, there will be 'hard work' you like later."

Gu Shen smiled, "Has this guy's 'spiritual sea' been checked?"

"without."

Song Ci shook his head and said: "Neither Shen Li nor I are spiritual extraordinary people... touching it rashly may cause unknown chain reactions. I'd better leave this kind of thing to you."

"Well, you guys wait for me here."

Gu Shen nodded.

He walked into the small courtyard alone.

When he returns to Dongzhou, the first thing he has to do is investigate the "Tiguse Family Betrayal Case."

This case is actually quite big or small.

As Song Ci said to Shen Li before, there are only five real aristocratic families in Dongzhou.

Gu White House Mu Li.

As for other families, they are not even qualified to carry shoes for the five families!

The betrayal of the Toze family is a definite fact, and the memory images of Toze Yue are the evidence.

So the easiest way to deal with it is to uproot it.

But the trouble with this matter is...are there other families doing what the Toze family is doing?

If so, does it mean there is a larger force controlling it?

…

…

A young man with a numb expression was tied to a chair in the small courtyard.

It's not the same as being a dandy in the secular sense.

This young master Toze, after being kidnapped, did not cry or make trouble, his expression was calm, and he was extremely calm.

Gu Shen still wore a ghost veil and showed his "evil ghost" appearance.

He has no plans to reveal his identity yet, so even if he faces a little person like "Higashi Sei", he is not ready to reveal his true identity.

"Are you someone sent by Lu Nanzhi?"

Before Gu Shen could sit down, Higashi Sei took the initiative to speak.

"oh?"

Gu Shen smiled and asked, "How did you guess it?"

"Song Ci is the number one underground expert in the Dadu area... The only one who can make him come forward is Lu Nanzhi. Other than that, I can't think of any other possibilities."

Higashi Sei stared at Gu Shen's eyes. He was not afraid of the evil ghost's dark and deep pupils.

"Well, let's just think so."

Gu Shen said calmly: "You can guess whatever you want. Anyway, I will erase these memories... Dongsei, can you guess why I tied you up?"

"I can not guess it."

"Huazhi is a huge group that is dozens of times larger than the Toze family. If you want to attack the Toze family, why bother to tie me up?"

Higashi Sei said coldly: "With Huazhi's strength, if you have any ideas, just do it. Even if you want to force my father to resign, there is no need to do so..."

While talking, Gu Shen was observing Higashi Sei's eyes.

This young dandy is not just eating, drinking, having fun, and indulging in wine and sex, as the intelligence said.

This is a pair of eyes with hidden sharp edges.

"The next step?"

Gu Shen said: "You seem to know nothing. I want to see if you are really what you show."

The Toze family has begun to transfer property and family members.

Although Higashi Sei is an illegitimate child, he is very popular with the family leader, so it stands to reason that he is also a member of the transfer.

I chose him to start with just to see if I could find an "information breakthrough"——

Gu Shen flicked his fingers and tapped out a wisp of blazing fire.

"boom!"

Higashi Sei's pupils suddenly shrank.

The longevity lock he wore in front of his neck was clanking at the moment, but it was shattered in an instant. This is a sealed object that can withstand the spiritual blow of a fourth-level transcendent... but it can't resist even for a second? !

Who is this evil ghost?

He looked at Gu Shen in great shock, and his vision was instantly occupied by blazing fire...

Gu Shen gently tapped Higashi Sei's forehead with two fingers.

His expression was a little subtle.

There is no "spiritual lock" in the mind of this illegitimate son of the Toze family, but it is not due to negligence.

Dongzei was completely outside the plan of the Dongze family's transfer.

Such a huge family...

If you want to move to another continent, you are destined to make sacrifices.

Only a very small number of people can actually complete the "migration". As for the others, they are all victims of the plan.

Once the crime of betraying Dongzhou is discovered, the Dongze family will be purged like a storm... The ruling office will not take into account the word "humanity" at all.

Those in the family who were not involved in the planning will also be implicated.

It was thought that the beloved Higashi Sei would also be transferred.

did not expect.

He turned out to be an abandoned son too.

However, after reading the memory, Gu Shen discovered some interesting things.

The so-called "illegitimate son" of Higashi Sei is actually gold and jade on the inside and corruption on the outside. His singing and singing every night is just an illusion, used to confuse people's hearts. There is also an underground supernatural force similar to the "Sincerity Society" in Yinghai District, named " "Kurosaki Group", but this force cannot be compared with Dadu, and its scale and extraordinary strength are much different.

Higashi Sei is responsible for contacting, recruiting, and settling the underground supernatural forces along the Yinghai River.

On the surface.

He is a dandy young master.

But in fact... he is responsible for handling many dirty and tiring underground tasks for the Toze family.

This is why, when Song Ci came forward to kidnap him, the entire box was filled with extraordinary thugs.

After a moment, Gu Shen released his fingers.

"Well……"

Higashi Sei groaned in pain and slowly opened his eyes. He felt that his head was dizzy.

See the broken longevity lock.

He understood everything immediately. He had been hypnotized. The other party was an extremely powerful spiritual transcendent, at least the eleventh level of the deep sea!

"What on earth are you going to do?!"

For the first time, Higashi Sei felt uneasy. He felt like everything about him had been seen through, and he roared angrily.

"When I tied you up, I deliberately asked Song Ci to leave some traces."

Gu Shen did not answer Higashi Sei, but said to himself: "If your father really cares about you, he will find those traces... Just some simple [profiles] can know everything that happened there. "

"You just want to see my father...is this necessary?"

Higashi Sei said angrily: "Although I don't know who you are, with your identity and background, you need to go through so much trouble to see him?!"

"you are right."

Gu Shen said calmly: "When I came to Yinghai, my purpose was really to meet your father... But I was worried about revealing my true identity. Your father knelt down to greet me, and even committed suicide out of fear of sin. He didn't even dare to see my face. ah."

"???"

As soon as these words came out, Higashi Sei was completely stunned.

He recalled the previous details.

Song Ci asked him not to pronounce his name.

"The force of crushing the bullets and the severity of the injuries to these people are strictly controlled."

"If I remember correctly, doesn't the Dongze family have an elderly spirit-type enshrinement?"

"Since it is a banned title, then his [profile] must be able to see these deliberately hidden details, thus inferring that the perpetrator's strength is at the peak of the fourth level. It is also important for him to follow the [profile] all the way to this place. It’s not difficult. I gave enough reminders along the way. Even if I miss one or two, I can still reach the end.”

Gu Shen stood up, looked at Higashi Sei, and said calmly: "I hope the meeting with your father... can be a little more formal."

"It would be best if he brings the most powerful thugs in the entire family to see me."

"Or rather, come and kill me."

…

…

There were dark clouds covering the sky, the night was low, and thunder was roaring.

A light drizzle fell.

"Actually, I still don't understand."

Shen Li and Song Ci leaned against the small courtyard.

He looked up at the dark and uncertain black clouds and murmured: "This matter does not seem to be as complicated as I imagined. It is just the kidnapping of an illegitimate child like Higashi Sei. Does it need to be so 'complicated'?"

"Aha, congratulations, you finally figured it out!"

Song Ci grinned: "Who was the tough guy who guarded the door before, even in the face of a powerful enemy?"

"That's because I don't know the situation yet."

Shen Li said helplessly: "Now I'm sure... Gu Shen's target is the Dongze family. Wouldn't it be simpler to leave this matter to Nagano or Huazhi to investigate?"

Nagano and Huazhi will have more manpower and more thorough control.

"This matter is not as simple as you think."

Gu Shen walked out of the small courtyard and said slowly: "Whether it is informing Nagano or informing Huazhi, a clear source of information needs to be given... It is not difficult to eradicate the 'Tiguse Family', with Shen Li now under your control The resources and strength are enough to launch a clean-up operation, but where is your evidence? The three offices all need to pay attention to procedures when handling cases. If you, Shen Li, are going to accuse the Toze family of betrayal and carry out a clean-up operation, Mr. Shan will allow it. Are you acting so cross-border?"

"..." Shen Li was speechless for a moment.

"As for informing Huazhi...the same principle applies."

Gu Shen shook his head.

If he showed up directly, none of this would be a problem.

But now that he is invisible, he cannot act like this.

"Of course, these are not the main reasons."

Gu Shen asked solemnly: "Think about it, why didn't I announce the news that I was alive?"

"Because... you don't want people outside to know that you are still alive."

"Who are the people outside?"

"City of Light, Tower of Source, Church..."

Speaking of this, Shen Li and Song Ci both realized something.

Gu Shen's news was kept secret from everyone, even Nagano and Central City. He only informed a very small number of people who must be informed and who could absolutely be trusted.

Song Ci's voice deepened: "You mean... there is a mole in our own family?"

"Betraying Dongzhou is a serious crime."

Gu Shen said in a low voice: "The Dongze family is willing to sacrifice the 'Ying Hai Councilor' and also change their position. I don't believe there is no push behind them."

Song Ci murmured: "If there is one, then it must be a huge iceberg..."

"good."

Gu Shen closed his eyes and felt the falling raindrops. He smiled softly: "Before the truth is unearthed, who knows what the iceberg looks like? Could it be from the inside?"

The betrayal of the Dongze family is a manifestation of the rotten roots of the Dongzhou family...

Because of this... only Gu Shen, the "dead man", is the most suitable to investigate this case.

It would be inappropriate to leave it to any party until the truth comes out.

Not notifying any party is the greatest fairness and the greatest cruelty.

Shen Li and Song Ci both felt a thump in their hearts, although they had great confidence in the forces behind them that were loyal to them...

But decay is often silent.

They don't want to see the worst-case scenario.

"Okay, the owner is here."

Gu Shen opened his eyes and looked at the dark gloom in the distance.

Nearly a hundred figures holding black umbrellas and carrying long knives at their waists walked through the streets and alleys, and finally gathered together in a thick black cloud.

Kurosaki group.

The largest underground supernatural force in Yinghai District.

The group of people stopped, pulled out their long knives and loaded their bullets.

"You two..."

Gu Shen turned around and said softly: "When the fight starts later, don't be too harsh and save your life. I will decide whether to kill or keep you alive after I have interrogated him clearly."
