Chapter 317: Ryoma Genichirō's Extraordinary Performance

Han Qiu met the gazes of the four family heads from time to time.

It’s the second day of summarizing and checking the problems. These two days have been really tiring.

Not only do you have to help cooperate, but you also have to help keep an eye on it to prevent the traitor from escaping.

Ryoma Genichirō and Sakurai Nanami, Inuyama Kazuo and Miyamoto Shio.

It seemed that the family heads were also divided into their own camps. Poor Fuma Kotaro, he was being interrogated alone in the room.

There was another equally pitiful guy, Tachibana Masamune, who was leaning in the corner, resting with his eyes closed, and coughing from time to time.

Yuan Zhisheng asked him to rest, but he insisted on cooperating with the interrogation. He was so fearless that Han Qiu was curious about the reason.

In the room, Fuma Kotaro told Gen Chisei everything he had done and everything he knew.

Yuan Zhisheng unfolded a corner of the painting in this way. It was not complete, but it fits the original idea.

There was actually no need for Genchisei to doubt Fuma Kotaro's qualifications.

He is indeed a pure person who only cares about his career. He strictly abides by and inherits everything from his family.

At the same time, he is so old that he doesn't have much time left to live, so it makes no sense for him to betray his family.

No matter how you look at it, he has no reason to do so.

But Gen Chisei still treated it with caution, just as he could not understand why the Kanto branch betrayed him at the beginning.

He had always followed Mr. Masamune, and even after he took office, he never treated the Kanto branch unfairly.

"Master Fengmo, I have a clear understanding of the situation on your side." Yuan Zhisheng wrote the last word.

From today on, all information about the Eight Clans of Sheqi must be recorded using the most original methods.

The files of this mission will be passed down, regardless of life or death in this battle.

It will be a new beginning.

"Head, why don't you ask me who you suspect did it?" asked Fuma Kotaro.

Gen Chisei shook his head. "Perhaps everyone has suspicions in their hearts, but when they are spoken out, the meaning is different. Go and call in the Ryoma family masters and the Sakurai family masters. Have a good rest, Fuma family master."

After Fuma Kotaro walked out silently, he just looked at Ryoma Genichirō and Sakurai Nanami for one second, and the latter two knew what he meant.

The two family heads stood up at the same time and walked inside.

Han Qiu's gaze remained on Tachibana Masamune.

His eyes were still closed.

----

Sakurai Nanami came in and sat down, and Ryoma Genichirō took the responsibility of closing the door.

Looking at these two people, Yuan Zhisheng smiled for no reason and took it as a blessing.

Ryoma Genichirō remained silent, and Sakurai Nanami explained the situation of the two of them one by one.

Occasionally there are missing parts, and Ryoma Genichirō makes some minor additions.

Gen Chisei didn't find anything wrong in the two people's stories, and they matched what Fuma Kotaro said.

"Head, judging from the current situation, the ghost is most likely by your side," said Sakurai Nanami.

"That may not be the case." Yuan Zhisheng smiled weakly. "For things like this, it's meaningless to guess randomly. Evidence is needed."

"In fact, it can be traced back to the Kanto branch." Ryoma Genichirō suddenly spoke.

"Master Longma, what do you mean?" Yuan Zhisheng didn't quite understand.

"I have seen the video and photos of Kaguya right before she self-destructed."

In fact, Ryoma Genichirō has not slept a wink since Kaguya-sama passed on the message. He has been checking videos and emails.

The Kanto branch was involved in both invasions of Genji Heavy Industries.

The first time was when the Kanto branch rebelled, and the second time it was also the Kanto branch that took advantage of the situation and invaded, of course leaving Ange and the others behind.

Angers and others helped the Eight Clans of Sheqi to avenge themselves and killed the rebels.

"Is there any important information?" Yuan Zhisheng asked.

"It's not important, but a little suspicious." Ryoma Genichirō said, "Your plan won't be of much help in finding the traitor. If there really is a traitor among the five family heads, they can continue to pretend to cooperate and hide. It will be difficult for you to detect anything unusual, but this is exactly what you want."

"That's right." Yuan Zhisheng nodded.

The head of the Longma family, who usually looks honest and dull, actually has many opinions of his own.

"I'm also betting. The family heads are smart enough to guess the purpose and meaning of my letter. If there is really a ghost, it would have been passed on. The fierce ghosts also know that we are setting up a trap. But they can only cooperate. The main purpose of Tokyo is still for the academy and the retreat of the Eight Snake Families."

"So, apart from Master Fuma, you asked Master Ryoma, Master Inuyama, and Master Miyamoto to work together in pairs. In fact, it was to... let us monitor each other." Sakurai Nanami smiled and said, "Master, aren't you afraid that the five of us are traitors?"

"If that's the case, when I leave, Genji Heavy Industries will belong to you. There's no need to play along with me." Genji said, "If it weren't for the situation, I would never doubt you."

Ryoma Genichirō continued, "Everything is exactly as we wish. Tokyo is under the control of the academy, and part of the power of the Oni Clan will be contained by the academy. It doesn't matter whether the Oni Clan knows our plan or not, because the main forces of the Snake Eight Clans have already arrived in Hokkaido. Since we have made up our mind to abandon Tokyo, we will not be afraid of a chaotic situation, as long as the god dies."

Yuan Zhisheng thought that he needed to persuade the family heads to accept such an outcome.

After all, Tokyo is their home and Japan is the territory of the Snake Eight Families.

Allowing your territory to be trampled on by other hybrids and to interfere with your own affairs... goes against the grain.

"But the Ghost Clan doesn't dare. Even if they go to war with the Academy, the Eight Snake Families, Han Qiu, and even the mixed-bloods in the world, they have to admit defeat." Ryoma Genichirō said, "But the Kanto branch is in charge of Tokyo. The Kanto branch did not follow the Ghost Clan to Hokkaido. They stayed in Tokyo. I know the personalities of the twelve captains very well. They are so proud that they ignore the heads of the five other families."

Yuan Zhisheng suddenly understood the meaning.

Welcoming God is the main task of the ghosts, and it is a race against time.

Those who Gen Chisheng brought to Hokkaido were all elite troops, so there was no reason for the Menggui Clan to bring a bunch of trash here.

The pride of the Kanto branch comes from the Eight Snake Families. Even if they betray, they remain proud.

But this time, their pride didn't help.

"If it was a temporary rebellion, the Kanto branch would not calmly accept being an unimportant part of the Oni Clan. This is not in line with their character." Ryoma Genichirō gave his final judgment: "The only more reasonable explanation is that they don't consider themselves members of the Snake Eight Families. They look down on the Snake Eight Families, so they are proud. It's just that we interpret that pride as... being young and powerful, and therefore frivolous."

"As for the final result of the rebellion, we attributed the blame to Akechi Asuya. Now it seems that it may not be that simple."

Ryoma Genichirō's words made Minamoto Chisei's body tremble.

That makes sense, why didn't I think about it in this way?

The reason why Ryoma is more likely to find these clues than other family heads is that he spends most of his time at Genji Heavy Industries. He doesn't look like a family head who can lead a family, but more like a capable subordinate who does specific things.

Compared with other family heads, he has more front-line work experience.

But if you really compare, none of the family heads can compare to Yuan Zhisheng.

The Kanto branch was also something that Minamoto Chisei was very familiar with.

After taking over the position of head of the family from Tachibana Masamune, he managed the Kanto branch himself.

Wait, if the Kanto branch was a traitor from the beginning, that means... the guy hiding deep inside has always been targeting me.

Yuan Zhisheng didn't dare to think about it anymore, and his breathing began to rapid.
