The Truth

Because what Shuichi Kanda said just now made it very clear that he had not yet regained his memories.

So, for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"It seems you don't know how to start, so let me ask." Shuichi Kanda looked at the other person calmly, "Are you my enemies?"

The old man shook his head repeatedly, as did Kanda Kyoji across from him.

"How could we possibly be enemies with Hideichi?"

"Then, what about the tsunami two years ago?"

When Shuichi Kanda asked about this, the old man shook his head with a wry smile.

"We don't know about that either."

Shuichi Kanda carefully observed the old man's expression but found no trace of lying. Why was that?

That's really strange.

Chapter 360 The truth

Although he didn't see any signs of lying on the other person's face, it didn't mean that Shuichi Kanda believed him. After all, the other person had more life experience than him, at least more than he had after losing his memory.

Faced with such a cunning old fox, Shuichi Kanda couldn't do much; the more he did, the more likely it was to cause uncontrollable consequences.

After a tense standoff lasting several minutes, Shuichi Kanda suddenly smiled and spoke in a friendly manner.

"To be honest, I still don't know your name."

Although according to the story, this person is his nominal grandfather, Shuichi Kanda has no intention of calling a stranger his grandfather.

"Excuse me, I am Kuranosuke Kanda, the previous head of the Kanda Family."

"I see," Kuranosuke Kanda Shuichi Kanda, then pushed the brewed tea over.

"Have a cup of tea first."

Seeing the teacup that Shuichi Kanda pushed towards him, Kanda Tsuzonosuke hesitated for a moment, then nodded. He was quite familiar with this thing.

Every year during the New Year, the Kanda Family selects a few lucky individuals to receive this blue water, claiming it to be divine water that can make people younger.

He actually knew that this stuff was just ordinary water mixed with some drugs; although it could make people feel relaxed temporarily, it didn't actually have any effect on making them younger.

Anyway, the people I found who were destined to be with me were all older, so even if I were a year younger, they wouldn't be able to tell.

The Kanda Family couldn't just give away the real elixir of immortality so easily; they didn't even have enough for themselves.

The only person in the Kanda Family who could produce a true elixir of immortality was Shuichi Kanda, who could communicate with the gods.

However, the annual production of this stuff is very limited, and there's barely enough for everyone in the family. Moreover, even within the family, only a few people are qualified to know about it.

Because such a divine object must absolutely not be revealed; otherwise, who knows what might happen to greedy people?

Despite the Kanda Family's immense power in Japan, it is still just a family, insignificant compared to a nation or even the world at large.

"A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime"—at least that's what the Kanda Family thought. They didn't believe they could keep such a valuable item.

Even with divine protection, if a family acts recklessly under the guise of divine authority, its destruction is not far off.

Thank you.

Kuranosuke Kanda picked up the teacup, checked its temperature, and drank it all in one gulp. Afterward, he felt his body become more relaxed.

In fact, his condition had visibly deteriorated over the past year, but after drinking this cup of tea, he immediately recovered considerably.

This convinced him that this thing must be an elixir of immortality, and his heart stirred with excitement once again.

But his expression quickly soured. Even if the person before him had regained his power, but not his memories, would he still stand by the Kanda Family?

Seeing that the other party drank the tea without any suspicion, Shuichi Kanda nodded, his expression somewhat strange.

They drank it without any suspicion whatsoever. Weren't they afraid I poisoned them?

However, since the other party had chosen to drink it, Shuichi Kanda decided to trust him for the time being, so he prepared to start asking questions from the beginning.

"Tell me about our relationship. What kind of person am I in the Kanda Family?"

Upon hearing Shuichi Kanda's question, Kuranosuke Kanda began to recount the story from the beginning without hesitation.

"This happened when I was still the head of the family..."

Hearing what Kuranosuke Kanda, Shuichi Kanda's expression became even more strange.

According to Kuranosuke Kanda, the Kanda Family has received divine pronouncements or blessings from the gods every twenty years for the past several hundred years.

For example, during the economic crisis in Japan in the 1990s, the Kanda Family a divine message, which allowed them to expand their power again and acquire almost one-third of the country's land.

In present-day Japan, a large portion of the land belongs to the Kanda Family, including the land on which this school is located, as well as numerous small islands outside the mainland.

Twelve years ago, ten years before the tsunami, the Kanda Family received another divine message during a religious ceremony, instructing Kanda Family to find a specific person and providing details about that person.

The Kanda Family, having received the divine oracle, naturally dared not be negligent. So, after mobilizing their power, they immediately found the person mentioned in the oracle.

And this person is Shuichi Kanda.

From then on, the Kanda Family gained a divine child who could communicate with the gods and perform miracles at any time, without having to wait twenty years.

Therefore, the Kanda Family directly adopted Shuichi Kanda as a messenger of the gods and raised him in their family.

As for why the Kanda Family had no doubts about Shuichi Kanda's identity, it was because the miracles performed by Shuichi Kanda were the same as the power possessed by the god they worshipped in legend.

Not only can it cure all diseases, but it can also produce some elixirs of immortality every year, allowing family members to live longer.

Shuichi Kanda also displayed a maturity beyond his years, which made the Kanda Family believe he was a messenger of the gods, and some even suspected that he was a true god incarnate.

However, the sudden accident caused Shuichi Kanda to lose his memory and his powers as well.

When the Kanda Family arrived at the scene, they found only an unconscious Shuichi Kanda, while the bodyguards sent by the Kanda Family were not seriously injured.

That's right. As Shuichi Kanda had no adoptive parents, and he only had two bodyguards with him when he went to the beach.

When the Kanda Family saw that scene, they were almost driven mad.

Especially after Shuichi Kanda remained unconscious in the hospital, the Kanda Family was almost in despair.

Some people felt that they had failed to protect the divine child and would face divine punishment, while others felt that this was the fall of a god and that the Kanda Family would no longer be protected by the gods.

In short, it's a mess.

However, this did not last long, because soon the Kanda Family received another divine decree, which was to take good care of Shuichi Kanda.

It would be best to keep him out of the public eye for the time being.

A few days after the divine oracle was delivered, Shuichi Kanda woke up, but he was suffering from amnesia.

Sending them to this school was a decision made by the family. Although the school was founded by the government, it was actually backed by the Kanda Family.

Furthermore, the school has comprehensive surveillance, which can effectively protect Shuichi Kanda.

After listening to Kuranosuke Kanda's story, Shuichi Kanda didn't know how to respond.

Bullshit!

This is utter nonsense, what the hell is this?!

Should I believe these things?

Shuichi Kanda was unsure what to do, feeling that the world was too surreal.

However, he still had many problems before that.

"Masumi, were you sent by you?"

The Kanda Family knew a lot about the school, so they were naturally aware of the current relationship between Kamuro Masumi and Shuichi Kanda.

So when he heard Shuichi Kanda's question, Kuranosuke Kanda quickly shook his head.

"It's a coincidence. Masumi had planned to enroll in this school from the beginning, and because of the Kanda Family, she was assigned to Class A. "Masumi

As for you, you were assigned to Class D because we wanted to conceal your identity."

Is that so?

Shuichi Kanda nodded slightly, then looked at the other person again.

"What's going on with Jingu Yuki?"

Upon hearing this, Kuranosuke Kanda could say anything, Kanda Kyoji, standing to the side, immediately gave a wry smile and began to explain.

"Yuki is my daughter. Her real name is Sakurare Kanda. Because she has been with you since she was little, and you two have a very good relationship, she has several divine artifacts."

"Sakurare Kanda, I remember hearing that name when I first woke up."

"Because at the time, I wanted to use this name to see if you would remember it, so..."

So you were all acting back then? And you even called me a jinx...

Shuichi Kanda was speechless. What kind of situation was this?

At this point in the conversation, Shuichi Kanda basically confirmed that the other party didn't seem to be lying, because although these things were absurd, they weren't impossible for them to actually happen.

However, it cannot be ruled out that the other party wants to seize what is in Shuichi Kanda's possession.

Well, if that's the case, that's fine too. That way, he can wipe them all out in one fell swoop. Enemies hiding in the shadows are always much harder to deal with than those that jump out.

Shuichi Kanda nodded, indicating that he would accept the other party's statement for the time being.

Upon seeing Shuichi Kanda nod, the two people opposite him breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Shuichi Kanda still found it strange. Was the person they had found according to the oracle really himself?

Shuichi Kanda had no memory or recollection of it whatsoever, and according to their descriptions of the artifacts they had brought out, some of them were things he had never even possessed.

But there are some things that match up, so could it really be that I traveled back in time?

Thinking of this, Shuichi Kanda for a moment. It didn't seem impossible after all.

Forget it, let's put that aside for now and think about how to deal with the problem at hand.

From the other party's words, Shuichi Kanda also learned that the Kanda Family would not give away the real elixir of immortality. If they did, there would probably be a lot of trouble.

"Then what do you think I should do with this tea party? I've prepared a ten-year supply of the elixir of immortality." Shuichi Kanda asked Kuranosuke Kanda for his opinion.

Now that things have come to this, Shuichi Kanda no longer intends to send out these medicines.

This was originally a bait, a signal to lure the Kanda Family to come and see him. Now that the goal has been achieved, Shuichi Kanda has no intention of revealing anything further.

After all, this kind of thing really can't be exposed to the light of day.

"I will naturally help you sort this out, so please don't worry about it."

No sooner had Kanda Shuichi spoken than Kanda Kyoji immediately spoke up, making a solemn vow to him.

Shuichi Kanda looked at him and then nodded.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you. Also, regarding the elixir of immortality, the Koenji Conglomerate's Daiki Koenji and his son, as well as the Acting Chairman of this school, Tsukishiro, already know about it."

"There's no need to worry about that. Tsukishiro recently pledged allegiance to our Kanda Family, and we're confident that the Koenji Conglomerate won't leak anything. Besides, I trust they know what's important."

Kanda Kyoji spoke with absolute confidence.

Shuichi Kanda nodded, then turned and went into the inner room, taking out the bucket containing the Age Spring Water and placing it on the table.

"This bucket, along with what's left in the pot, makes nine portions. I'm leaving them to you to handle."

Upon hearing Shuichi Kanda's words, Kanda Kyoji immediately stood up excitedly and bowed to Shuichi Kanda.

"Thank you so much!"

"By the way, if you need anything in the future, just have Tsukishiro relay the message. He's a very pragmatic person."

"Yes, I understand!"

After giving a brief explanation, Shuichi Kanda left the tea room and saw Tsukishiro waiting outside. Shuichi Kanda nodded to him and then left.

He needs to check whether what those two people said is true.

They just mentioned that "they" performed miracles during this period, and even gave specific dates. A simple check using Time TV will reveal whether they are lying.

As for the "tsunami incident" two years ago, Shuichi Kanda believed that they were indeed unaware of the details, because it was something that even Time TV could not observe.

If they knew the whole story, or if they could interfere with the Time TV's functions, then Shuichi Kanda might as well just surrender.

He himself can't even interfere with time; if the Kanda Family could, what would he be doing?

As for Jingu Yuki, Shuichi Kanda the time being. Even though she had a good relationship with his former self, he doesn't recognize her now.

Furthermore, not knowing what tools she possessed, Shuichi Kanda decided to keep his distance for the time being.
