Socially Declared Dead

Everything happened so suddenly tonight.

One wave subsides, another rises.

Qing Chen guessed that the Kamishiro Family might have some secret plan to carry out, so they didn't want anyone to know that they had changed their itinerary at the last minute and wanted to kill them to silence them.

However, before the Kamishiro Family could make a move, another convoy arrived.

He felt that tonight was too dramatic, as if everyone had conspired to come together and appear on stage at the same time.

The convoy that had just arrived showed no intention of giving way to the Kamishiro Family. More than a dozen Boundary-011 drones flew over the Kamishiro camp, subtly bringing everyone into their attack range.

It was Autumn Hunting Team.

On the mountain road, which was eight or nine meters wide, the Kamishiro Family's off-road vehicles blocked the road side by side.

Originally, this was intended to prevent Qin Cheng and his group from escaping, but now it has blocked the path of the Autumn Hunting Team.

At the very front of the Autumn Hunt Convoy, a massive off-road vehicle used its sturdy black crash barriers to push aside the other off-road vehicles blocking the road.

The vehicles of the Autumn Hunting Team had obvious bullet holes and scratches, and three vehicles were missing.

A robust girl jumped off the fierce and savage lead vehicle; it was none other than Li Yinuo.

She swaggered into the Kamishiro camp and, as if no one else was around, said to Kamishiro Seisho, "According to your plan, you should be on your way to City No. 7 right now. Why are you stopped here?"

Qing Chen realized that Li Yinuo had come specifically for the Kamishiro Family.

As the teacher had mentioned before, among the pro-war faction opposing the Kamishiro Family and Kashima Family, the Li family was the most steadfast.

Upon seeing Li Yinuo, Kamishiro Seisho immediately stood up straight and bowed deeply. "So it's Miss Yinuo. It's been a while since we parted in City No. 18. I didn't expect to meet you again so soon."

Li Yinuo frowned. "You're more than twenty years older than me, why are you always bowing to me? When will the Kamishiro Family get rid of this fake politeness?"

As she spoke, she walked to the campfire and looked at the girl who had been crying with a smile, "She's quite pretty, that Chen Leyou got lucky. Why don't you leave the Chen family and come to my Li family with me?"

Qing Chen felt a shock, thinking to himself that Li Yinuo was even more ferocious than he had imagined.

The young people in the Autumn Hunting Team all got off the vehicles. The middle-aged man who had been in charge of the convoy gave a few instructions to the first mate and then stayed by Li Yinuo's side to prevent the Kamishiro Family from suddenly harming anyone.

At this moment, Qing Chen turned to look at Li Shutong, only to find that the teacher was watching the play with great interest, arms crossed.

"Teacher? What do we do now?" Qing Chen asked.

"What's the rush?" Li Shutong said with a smile. "It's a good thing that someone is here to cause trouble. Although Li Yinuo looks a bit sturdy, her behavior is quite endearing."

At this moment, Li Yinuo was already sitting on the soft chair that originally belonged to Kamishiro Seisho. She looked up and asked with a smile, "You are planning to go south to find Qing Huai, the eldest son of the fourth branch of the Qing family, right? I heard that you want the Qing family to change the marriage contract and don't want Kamishiro Kono to marry that powerless and unsupported person... Strange, you don't even know the name of that Shadow Candidate."

Kamishiro Seisho replied, "We just happened to be passing by and found that the autumn scenery here is comparable to that of the northern country, so we camped here to enjoy it."

Nearly fifty years old, Kamishiro Seisho stood next to Li Yinuo, appearing as humble as a subordinate.

Only a few people know that the Kamishiro Family has always been like this; they only show their claws when they become truly ruthless.

Li Yinuo sat on the soft chair and crossed her legs. "I heard that Qing Huai himself didn't want to change the marriage agreement with your Shendai, is that right? Kamishiro Kono also seems to disagree. But you probably don't care about Kamishiro Kono's opinion, so you want to persuade Qing Huai yourself? I guessed right."

At this moment, when Qing Chen heard the keyword "Qing Clan Fourth Branch," it seemed to connect many things.

The assassins who tried to kill him in prison were from the Qing Clan Fourth Branch.

The fact that Li Shutong brought him out this time was also related to Qing Huai, the eldest son of the Qing Clan Fourth Branch, which was part of the teacher's plan.

Qing Chen silently looked at the teacher beside him.

At this moment, Li Shutong glanced at him with a smile, but did not say anything.

Li Yinuo sneered and said to the people of the Kamishiro Family, "Stop playing these little tricks. I advise you to just go back to the north obediently."

Kamishiro Seisho bent slightly, but his words were uncompromising. "Are you acting on behalf of the Li family? I'm afraid the Li family doesn't have the authority to command the Kamishiro Family."

The atmosphere in the camp suddenly became tense.

The members of the Kamishiro Family slowly moved into battle formation. The middle-aged man behind Li Yinuo watched all this expressionlessly, without saying a word.

Li Shutong whispered to Qing Chen, "Let me translate what Kamishiro Seisho meant by that sentence for you, it's just..."

"Teacher," Qing Chen said sincerely, "Please don't insult my intelligence."

"Alright then," Li Shutong said with some regret.

Li Yinuo smiled, stood up, and called out to the Autumn Hunting Team not far away, "We'll camp here tonight. Wherever the Kamishiro Family goes, we'll go. After all, our guests have come from afar, and as their hosts, we naturally have to entertain them well."

After saying that, she swaggered to an open space to the side.

As Li Yinuo passed by Qin Cheng, she suddenly asked with some surprise, "And who are you?"

Qin Cheng hurriedly said, "We are a hunting team passing by. Your team destroyed our drone earlier, and you made them pay compensation. We were just passing through this area, Kamishiro Family wanted to kill us to cover it up."

At this point, the wisest choice is to take sides.

Li Yinuo glanced around behind Qin Cheng and smiled, "I remembered you. Don't worry about this Kamishiro Family. You can camp right next to us and then come with us."

Qin Cheng quickly agreed, "Okay, thank you so much!"

Qin Yiyi at the back of the crowd, exclaimed, "That was close! Luckily, the Autumn Hunting Team arrived."

Qing Chen glanced at his teacher beside him and thought to himself that it was indeed a close call; the entire Kamishiro Family almost died here.

Li Yinuo returned to her car, took someone from the passenger seat, and walked back to the camp.

As she brushed past Qing Chen, the person being carried looked at Qing Chen with a face full of despair...

There was a hint of shame mixed in with that despair...

It was obvious that this guy had already recognized Qing Chen.

The ash on Qing Chen's face might fool others, but it certainly wouldn't fool Nan Gengchen.

From this moment on, Nan Gengchen was socially dead.

People often say that a person dies three times. The first time is physiological death, when the heart stops beating.

The second is when society declares you dead.

The third time is being forgotten by the last person who remembers you.

However, some people are special; they don't even need to experience death for the first time before society declares them dead.

The countdown is almost over; it's time to return.
