Chapter 189 So these two old men know each other after all.
Lu Mingfei stood by the window, his cold anger settling in his chest, transforming into a sharper and calmer killing intent.
The feeling of regret was fleeting, quickly replaced by more pragmatic thinking and action.
Does he regret not leaving a coordinate mark on Su Xiaoqiang?
A little.
But his considerations at the time were not entirely wrong.
He didn't want to drag this girl, who was just an old classmate and should have been living the life of an ordinary rich girl, deeper into the bloody and cruel world of mixed races.
Even though she was abducted to Japan as a mixed-race person, Lu Mingfei still didn't want her to be involved in the bloody and ruthless life of his gang.
He believed that getting her safely to the embassy and back to a normal life was the best option.
But reality slapped him hard in the face.
This is also a slap in the face to the Japanese government.
The road from the pier to the embassy is only a dozen kilometers long, yet in the heart of Tokyo, this megacity, several living people were able to vanish into thin air again.
This is no longer a simple matter of negligence or capability; it is a blatant mockery and trampling of Japan's existing order and security system!
What exactly is the other party's purpose?
If the mastermind is someone from within the Snake Clan, it's impossible that they wouldn't know about Lu Mingfei. There are very few mixed-race organizations in the world that don't know about the first half of his life, including the fact that Su Xiaoqiang was his classmate.
What other value does Su Xiaoqiang and the others possess that he doesn't know about?
Or... is this all aimed at Lu Mingfei?
A vicious retaliation and demonstration against his actions?
If it was a demonstration, then he could only say it was very successful; Lu Mingfei has now completely lost his patience.
As his thoughts wandered, he remembered the letter that Yuan Zhinü had given him.
The Demons... Demon Badge...
He no longer cared about Uesugi Kotsugi, who was still sitting in the room.
With a thought, Lu Mingfei's letter, with its plain white background and a menacing "ghost" emblem, appeared out of thin air in his hand.
The envelope gleamed with a cold luster under the hotel's soft lighting.
He tore open the seal, pulled out the letter inside, and quickly scanned it.
The contents of the letter largely overlapped with Uesugi Kotsukasa's account of the history, organizational structure, and antagonistic relationship with the Snake-Headed Eight Families, and were even more detailed, listing some of the known strongholds, activity patterns, and code names and characteristics of several high-ranking members of the Demon Clan.
But what really caught Lu Mingfei's attention was a separate page attached at the end of the letter, or rather, a brief summary of the archives.
The title was prominently displayed as: Intelligence Summary Regarding the King.
The content is as follows:
Target: Wang Jiang, one of the highest leaders and spiritual leaders of the Fierce Ghosts, whose identity is shrouded in mystery and who rarely appears in public.
Characteristics: They often wear Noh masks (in the style of court nobles or spirits), and their voices are specially processed.
His actions are unpredictable and he is skilled in mind control, psychological suggestion, and biotechnology, especially human modification related to dragon blood.
It is believed to possess extremely high dragon bloodline and mastery of the power of words, but details are unknown.
Multiple clues suggest that Wang Jiang's early activities or technological origins may be linked to Black Swan Harbor, a top-secret Soviet research facility in Siberia during the Cold War.
The port is rumored to have conducted numerous inhumane experiments involving supernatural forces.
About twenty years ago, Wang began his activities in Japan, initially using the identities of a scholar, doctor, or philanthropist as cover, gradually infiltrating Japanese mixed-race society, and eventually becoming the core of the Oni Clan.
There may be a potential connection between him and Masamune Tachibana.
Tachibana Masamune, the patriarch of the Snake Clan, served as a KGB major in the Soviet Union in his early years, and may have had contact or cooperation with people who had not yet revealed their royal status at that time.
The nature of the relationship between the two is unclear, but there are coincidences in terms of time and events.
Soviet Union... Port of Black Swan... Masamune Tachibana...
These keywords, like cold steel needles, pierced Lu Mingfei's mind.
Port Black Swan was not entirely unfamiliar to him.
Through the group's top-secret files and occasional conversations with Lao Wang, he vaguely learned that it was a name that was taboo in the history of hybrid races, associated with secret dragon research, inhumane human experiments, and a series of disastrous consequences.
This information was obtained by Lao Wang through secret channels before the collapse of the Soviet Union.
If the King truly comes from there, then the evil and danger of the technology and methods he possesses will far exceed the scope of ordinary mixed-race organizations.
And Tachibana Masamune... this seemingly gentle old man who controls the Snake-Headed Eight Families, could actually have had dealings with the King?
Lu Mingfei recalled the series of events that had occurred before.
The bounty on Erii and the eerie sound of a clapper.
That kind of mental attack method seems to match the description of Wang Jiang's expertise in mental control.
The cutting-edge genetic modification technology at the Osaka Gene Lab may have originated from the legacy of Black Swan Harbor.
With the Sheqi Eight Families leaking information like a sieve, is there tacit approval or involvement from higher levels?
Even regarding Su Xiaoqiang and the others' second disappearance, who in Tokyo possesses such power and audacity?
A faint clue seems to be emerging.
He slowly raised his head and looked at Uesugi Kotsugi, who had been quietly observing him, his gaze piercing.
"Mr. Uesugi,"
Lu Mingfei's voice was calm, yet it possessed an undeniable penetrating power.
"You just mentioned the Oni Clan and the internal problems of the clan. So, what do you know about the King, Black Swan Port, and... the early experiences of Patriarch Tachibana Masamune?"
He gently placed the letter on the table, exposing the glaring "Demon" badge and the words "King General" and "Black Swan Port" to Uesugi Etsu's view.
This is both information sharing and a direct test.
“Tachibana Masamune, all I know is that he suddenly appeared more than 20 years ago after the collapse of the Soviet Union, claiming to be a member of the Tachibana family branch, and took over the Snake-Headed Eight Families when the inner three families had no heirs.”
After pondering for a while, Uesugi gave his answer.
"Regarding my child, it is absolutely impossible that I had a child with someone else. I have always been careful with safety measures. The source may be related to the genes I provided to Germany during World War II."
These past few days he has talked a lot with the few old men still alive in his family, and has come to a preliminary understanding of where his children came from.
Uesugi lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought, and added something.
"Although their bloodline has awakened to the status of emperors, it is too weak, much weaker than when I was at my peak. It just goes to show that modern science still has its limits."
Germany......
Lu Mingfei lowered his head and pondered for a while, his thoughts gradually closing.
Uesugi Kotsugu provided his genes to Germany, which was then conquered by the Soviet Union, leading to the Soviet Union's research base for black swans and dragons.
Considering the ages of Uesugi Koshi's children, it seems to coincide with the time when Tachibana Masamune and the King began their activities in Japan.
So at least one thing is certain: Tachibana Masamune definitely knows the King, and both of them have close ties to Black Swan Port.
Otherwise, how do you explain that Erii and Genji were brought back by him?
