Kamishiro and Kashima
In He Xiaoxiao's group chat.
The Chuang Wang said, "Hey Zard, how was the intelligence I shared this time? Wasn't it more accurate and concise than what you shared? No beating around the bush or keeping me in suspense at all."
Zard's reply was concise, "Not playing."
The Chuang Wang, on the other side, was furious. "Why don't you share some intelligence too?"
Zard: "Kashima and Kamishiro's reverse Transmigration Plan failed this time, but they still won't give up. As Chuang Wang said, the Inner World Federation is about to go into civil war. The two sides in the war are most likely to be Kamishiro and Kashima in the north joining forces against the Li, Qing, and Chen families in the south. At present, the Li and Qing families are staunch advocates of war, with fewer voices advocating peace within their ranks. Only the Chen family is uncertain about their stance, so the Li and Qing families need to be careful of the Chen family turning against them and causing trouble. After all, everyone wants to be the beneficiary."
Zard: "The Time Walker controlled by Kashima and Kamishiro are just the tip of the iceberg in Xiancheng this time. Don't underestimate their brainwashing methods. At the start of the war in the Inner World, the intelligence system was the first to be activated, and I think the same will happen in the Outer World. Also, do these two huge conglomerates really only have one substitute who can travel in reverse? I don't believe it. If that's the case, these two conglomerates are too weak. Don't underestimate them."
The others in the group were savoring the text carefully; it was rare for Zard to be so serious, and everyone was a little unaccustomed to it.
However, Zard is right. How many Time Walker do the Li, Qing, and Chen families control in the Inner World? There are definitely over a thousand.
So, the countries where Kamishiro and Kashima reside also have a high population density. Would they control fewer people? You know, the Kamishiro and Kashima Family have more efficient methods of searching.
In the Inner World.
Only the direct descendants of the Kamishiro and Kashima Family speak Japanese and Korean, while the people in the cities they control speak Mandarin.
The cities they control correspond to places like Osaka and Tokyo, where very few Time Walker speak Mandarin.
Therefore, if the Time Walker there can only speak Korean and Japanese and not Mandarin, they are all Time Walker.
As a result, the concentration of Time Walker in Kamishiro and Kashima is extremely high.
Now someone has told Qing Chen that these two families have already controlled several thousand Time Walker, and he believes it.
This is also why the cost of Chinese language classes in island nations has become exorbitant.
Looking at the two long paragraphs Zard sent, Chuang Wang asked doubtfully, "Is this all the intelligence you have?"
Zard: "I guessed."
The Chuang Wang: "..."
Li Si: "..."
Yue'er: "..."
Qing Bao: "Although Zard's guess was just a guess, it's very close to the truth. At least the Time Walker controlled by the Kamishiro Family is more than people imagine. And although the Kamishiro Family's base is in the north, they have intelligence systems in various cities, so they control Time Walker in all 19 cities in the country. As far as I know, they have found at least a dozen people who meet the replacement criteria. As for whether they have been sent to the designated locations, I'm not sure."
"Wow, you know so much information. You're not from the Kamishiro family, are you? Only the direct descendants know this kind of information," Zard asked curiously.
Qing Bao: "No."
At this moment, Qing Chen was stunned as he watched these people chatting. He thought to himself, "Could this Qing Bao be Kamishiro Kono?"
The other party could be a member of the Kamishiro Family, or an overseas Chinese who understands Chinese and has a sense of identity with China. Qing Chen felt that Kamishiro Kono was a perfect fit!
Since Kamishiro Kono's father is Chinese, her values and cultural identity will most likely follow her father's lineage.
Qing Chen suddenly realized that his name had already been mentioned in the group chat. So, if this Qing Bao was Kamishiro Kono...
At the same time that one knows the other is Time Walker, the other also guesses that one is Time Walker?
Currently, Kamishiro Kono is still on the run in the country. Will the other party come to Los Angeles to look for her?
Qing Chen was unsure, after all, the two of them were strangers who had only met a few times. Although they had a marriage contract in the Inner World, since they were both Time Walker, who would take the marriage contract seriously?
The next moment, the Forbidden Item ACE-999 pulled Qing Chen's thoughts back. "I need to tell everyone that if you encounter anyone who resembles Kamishiro or Kashima, please report to Jiuzhou or Kunlun members you know as soon as possible. This is not an exaggeration. If Kamishiro and Kashima become the victors within the Federation, then you will all be implicated. The war in the Inner World may seem unrelated to you and me, but that is not the case."
Jingshan: "I agree. Kunlun also welcomes everyone to share information. In addition, if the Inner World is about to face a civil war, then the actions taken by Kamishiro and Kashima within the territory will also occur in the near future. Please be careful Time Walker."
Qing Chen pondered, and he agreed with what the two men had said.
After all, his greatest reliance now is his special relationship with Li Shutong and the Li family. If the Li family becomes the defeated party in the Inner World, it will weaken his interpersonal relationships and trump cards.
Not only him, but probably many Time Walker would face such danger. For example, Chuang Wang an officer of the Qing clan's direct troops, if the Qing clan were defeated, his social status would also be gone.
At that time, the Time Walker controlled by the Kamishiro and Kashima Family will rise in status, and they will also have a huge influence on the Outer World.
Therefore, in general, if Kamishiro and Kashima appear within the territory, Qing Chen and his group, from their own perspective, should also try to stop their plans.
Not to mention certain historical grudges.
At this moment, Qing Bao suddenly asked in the group chat, "By the way, are there many people in China... learning Japanese?"
Li Si: "Japanese is a less commonly spoken language in China, not many people study it, so why are you asking this?"
Qing Bao explained, "Oh, I was just asking casually. After all, we're going to war with the Gods, so knowing a little Japanese is always a good thing. You can never be defeated if you know yourself and your enemy."
Lu Ya: "That makes sense."
Zard: "I'm going to learn right now! I have tons of textbooks!"
Chuang Wang: "Could you share something? I also want to learn a foreign language."
Qing Bao: "..."
Qing Chen suddenly wondered if Qing Bao was really Kamishiro Kono, and the other party was probably trying to guess whether he could speak Japanese.
The other person probably doesn't know that they're in this group...
Of course, based on the information Qing Bao has shown so far, Qing Chen is still unable to determine the other party's true identity.
At this moment, Huan Yu had been silent all along, said, "According to the intelligence I have, Time Walker from Shindai and Kashima have already set off. It seems that their goal is still to send people to Los Angeles to replace the important Li family figure in the Inner World."
Chuang Wang: "Oh, you'd actually be kind enough to give out this kind of information? Are you perhaps covering for Kamishiro and Kashima?"
Huan Yu: "When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken. Chuang Wang, if my analysis is correct, your backer in the Inner World is the Qing Clan, right? If the Qing Clan becomes the defeated party, can you still be so relaxed? I think that Time Walker with a certain social status in the Inner World have some connection with conglomerates. Everyone's situation is the same."
Upon seeing this, Qing Chen thought to himself that he had previously estimated that there was a 60% chance that Huan Yu was a member of the Chen family, but now that probability had increased to 70%.
Just then, Forbidden Item ACE-999 suddenly said, "I must remind everyone to be careful and to be more vigilant against Kamishiro and Kashima. Jiuzhou has already had small-scale conflicts with them overseas, and several members have recently been assassinated domestically. This is not an exaggeration; we believe they will definitely take action when the war in the Inner World breaks out."
The originally cheerful atmosphere in the group suddenly became stagnant.
Everyone was thinking, if even a large organization like Jiuzhou suffered heavy losses, wouldn't these "scattered soldiers" be in great danger?
In fact, the Time Walker from Kamishiro and Kashima might not be stronger than them, but the most important point is that the opponents were too concentrated, and it is conceivable that those Time Walker had all received military training.
Jiang Xue drove the car all the way into the family compound on Xingshu Road.
Qing Chen had been to Xiancheng, and returning to this familiar place felt especially warm and welcoming.
After getting out of the car, he looked around, trying to memorize every detail.
Hu Xiaoniu has found a new base, and he will go to fulfill the purchase contract tomorrow morning and complete the transfer procedures at the administrative service hall.
The newly purchased villa is still in its original state and is located in the most famous upscale neighborhood in Los Angeles, "National Treasure Gardens".
The villa is 720 square meters and has a total of 8 bedrooms.
Hu Xiaoniu, Liu Dezhu, Nan Gengchen, Qing Chen, Jiang Xue, Li Tongyun, and Zhang Tianzhen are enough to house the current members of Daylight. Women will live on the third floor, and men will live on the first and second floors, which will also ensure the privacy of Jiang Xue and Li Tongyun.
The community has a beautiful environment, which is also suitable for morning runs. The spacious basement of the villa can be converted into a gym and equipment room.
Overall, Hu Xiaoniu's considerations were very thorough.
Compared to others, Hu Xiaoniu is more suited to this kind of coordination work.
In other words, Qing Chen and his group will be moving to a new address in the next couple of days, and all the members of Daylight will have to stick together.
And Xingshu Road will become a thing of the past for everyone.
Just as they returned to the entrance of their building, they were astonished to find several luxury cars parked on the path in front of Building 12.
Before they could figure out what was going on, Hu Xiaoniu came out of the stairwell with several middle-aged men. "Uncles and elders, I really can't help you. Helping Uncle Zhang Chengze was just something I did on the side. I really can't manage anything else. Please go back now. I'll see you all off here."
Hu Xiaoniu was surrounded by five or six middle-aged men, who were still talking incessantly.
A chubby middle-aged man frowned and said, "Xiao Niu, Zhang Chengze told us that your organization is very powerful and can do whatever it wants in City No. 18. You can clearly help us."
Hu Xiaoniu said seriously, "First of all, I need to correct you on one point. That's not my organization, but the organization I serve. There's a big difference between them. Also, our organization already took a great risk to rescue Uncle Zhang Chengze. We don't lack working capital right now, so we don't intend to risk our lives for money."
Another middle-aged man said, "Little Niu, if we could handle our situation inside ourselves, we wouldn't need to trouble you..."
"Yeah, why don't you help us arrange to meet your boss? We can have a good talk with him. Maybe we have something that can persuade him," said the chubby middle-aged man.
Hu Xiaoniu shook his head and directly deflected the matter. "I will report this to him, and I will convey the boss's thoughts to everyone. But don't even think about communicating with him face to face."
With that, Hu Xiaoniu helped these people into the car.
Nan Gengchen walked over and asked curiously, "What's wrong with these people?"
Hu Xiaoniu smiled and said, "Let's chat in the daytime group. I need to report to the boss."
"Okay," Qing Chen said.
Everyone went home.
Brave Bull Bull: "Boss, as you instructed, the gene serum has been sold to Zhang Chengze. The proceeds of 12 million have been transferred to Qiu Xue. He should still be in the pain period."
Boss: "I understand, thank you for your hard work."
Brave Bull Bull: "There were some unexpected events. After Zhang Chengze was rescued last time, he told his friends about it, and several of his friends came looking for him, hoping to get the same help. I roughly understand the situation. These people are all in some kind of predicament in the Inner World. They are either being illegally imprisoned or are at the bottom with no hope of turning their lives around. They had previously hired some other Time Walker, but they were either scammed or the Time Walker were not very useful."
Not Afraid of Difficulties: "One of the uncles had driven all over the country to nineteen public testing cities before finally finding the countdown in Zhengzhou. He had time-traveled a long time ago, but was discovered by his wife in the Inner World as soon as he arrived. After discovering that her husband had been impersonated, the woman did not choose to seek out the Public Security Committee or kill the uncle. Instead, she pretended to be unaware of the situation, then injected him with a sedative while he was asleep and imprisoned him in an iron cage. He has been imprisoned for almost a month now."
Qing Chen was stunned for a moment.
Boss: "Why are you imprisoning him?"
Not Afraid of Difficulties: "Because that woman believed that although her husband had been replaced, he might come back someday. Even if he didn't come back, she was content to see his body still alive and couldn't bear to kill him. She brought this uncle food every day and chatted with him, but forbade him to speak or respond."
Qing Chen could imagine how desperate this woman must have been. She had a good life and a steadfast love, and then it all vanished without a trace.
The other party chose to imprison the Time Walker while suffering, just so that she could see her living 'husband' every day.
Therefore, this is why Qing Chen was unwilling to use Yi to help the people of the Outer World actively find a replacement target.
Every instance of identity theft signifies a tragedy.
Boss: "We don't help those who deliberately cause tragedy by crossing over into the past. What about the others?"
Brave Bull Bull: "There's another one who's really tragic. He and his son have both become Time Walker. His son was Liu Dezhu's classmate. Now, he himself has become someone else's servant in City No. 18, and his son, along with other classmates, has committed crimes to try and get into the prison where Liu Dezhu is..."
Qing Chen was shocked. He had already put those spoiled brats out of his mind, but now he remembered, "Oh right, those spoiled brats are about to face trial."
Those within the White Day organization all knew that Liu Dezhu had already been exonerated with the help of the "boss," so these spoiled brats going to prison were truly going to undergo reform.
This family's fate was absolutely tragic; the entire family was wiped out...
Boss: "We don't help with these kinds either. What about the others?"
Brave Bull Bull: "There's another suspicious one. The person said that after he time-traveled, he became a member of a mysterious organization, seemingly an intelligence agency of some power. He was discovered and imprisoned as soon as he time-traveled, and he was brainwashed every day. It's said that there were several other people imprisoned with him. At first, the mysterious organization only allowed them to sleep for one hour a day, and then shone bright lights on them until they broke down everyone's psychological defenses. The brainwashing process was also very sophisticated, and the scripts were all prepared in advance."
Boss: "Does that organization have any identifying characteristics?"
Brave Bull Bull: "Those people were very cautious and didn't show any distinguishing features."
Boss: "Did that organization tell him what they planned for him to do in the Outer World?"
Brave Bull Bull: "Not yet. We haven't revealed any mission to him. We've just intensified the brainwashing process recently, as if we're in a rush."
Boss: "Has he still not been successfully brainwashed?"
Brave Bull Bull: "This uncle started out in the 1990s with pyramid schemes. He said that he had used all those brainwashing techniques before, so he doesn't fall for them."
Liu Dezhu: "..."
Nan Gengchen: "..."
Boss: "We'll help this guy. We'll have him send over all his personal information. As for the price, Niu Niu, you negotiate with him and set a price based on his net worth."
Brave Bull Bull: "Okay, got it."
At this moment, Qing Chen suspected that the one controlling this middle-aged man was likely either from the Kamishiro or Kashima family!
If the Li, Qing, or Chen families were to control the Time Walker in the south, they would not hide their corporate identities at all. They would even proactively reveal their corporate identities, thereby creating a sense of powerlessness among the Time Walker and prompting them to willingly submit to them.
Only Kamishiro and Kashima have reason to be so cautious.
Following this Time Walker, Qing Chen might even be able to dismantle an intelligence agency of the Age of Gods and Kashima in the Inner World.
At this moment, Nan Gengchen guessed something and asked curiously, "Brother Chen, are you planning to fight to the death with Kamishiro and Kashima?"
"It's not a fight to the death," Qing Chen said, "But you have to understand that our relationship with the Li family is too deep. The person they want to send to Luocheng to complete the replacement plan is very likely someone we know, such as Li Yinuo, Li Xiurui, or Li Changqing."
Upon hearing Li Yinuo's name, Nan Gengchen immediately felt a surge of righteous indignation. "Fuck them!"
During the daytime, the boss said in the group chat, "Hu Xiaoniu has prepared the new base. Everyone, pack up and get ready to move. It will be easier for everyone to look after each other if we are all together."
Liu Dezhu suddenly became excited. "Boss, are you moving there too?"
He thought to himself, "Finally, I'm going to see the boss in person."
Boss: "I'm not moving."
Liu Dezhu: "Oh..."
Qiu Xue suddenly asked, "Is the Little Rich Girl moving there too?"
The Little Rich Girl: "I'm not moving either..."
There's a 5,000-word chapter, and another chapter will be released at 11 PM tonight.
