Hearing Lin Guang's words, Shu Ouma recalled the ability Lin Guang had displayed before, which was the same as his own.
"Yeah, so you're part of Funeral Parlor too, Lin Guang? And I saw Inori Yuzuriha with them as well. So was Funeral Parlor what you were talking about that day?"
"Yes, but not entirely," Lin Guang said. "This world isn't as simple as you imagine. Even with everything I've done, you're still destined to be unable to escape this vortex. What a pity."
With that, Lin Guang patted Shu Ouma on the shoulder and left the aft deck.
Shu Ouma couldn't understand what Lin Guang meant, but he could vaguely tell that he seemed destined never to live that kind of peaceful life.
Fragments of memories flickered through Shu Ouma's mind, but those memories felt somewhat unfamiliar, and deep down, he felt an instinctive resistance to them.
Meanwhile, the elderly head of the Kuhouin Family contacted Funeral Parlor's Shibunshiki.
"I already know that you have a way to prevent a second White Blood Cell from being established. Since I've seen it with my own eyes, it is certainly worth believing. Finally, I want to know whether Kuhouin Guanglin has joined you."
Hearing the elderly Kuhouin ask about Lin Guang, Shibunshiki fell silent for a moment before saying, "Of course."
The elderly Kuhouin's voice came through the communicator.
"I understand. We have a deal."
Having received the elderly Kuhouin's confirmation, Shibunshiki said, "Thank you very much. I'll pass that on to Gai exactly as you said."
After the call ended, Shibunshiki turned to the other members behind him. "Good news! The Kuhouin Group will provide us with channels within the country."
Everyone grew excited upon hearing the good news.
After the banquet ended.
Lin Guang left the Kuhouin Family's cruise
