Zongman: Complete Guide to Characters

Yeyue freed her bound hands and glanced at the boy's faceplate.

The Akashi family is one of the few wealthy families. It has a long history and considerable prestige and wealth. The panel shows that the young boy in front of him is the only son of the current head of the Akashi family.

The only question is [Akagi Seijuro (li)], what does the (li) after the name mean?

Never seen a logo before.

Yeyue muttered to herself, and put on a kind smile to deal with children, "Hello, I..."

"You did a good job." The young boy moved his body and sat up, his heterochromatic eyes calm.

"what?"

"Using fighting to let those guys down their guard and create an environment where no one is watching is good." Akashi Seijuro commented lightly.

...This child seems a little too mature, not like a child of Rei's age. Logically speaking, children of this age, even Saiki Kusunoki, who is a superpower and more mature and stable than others, will occasionally show some childish innocence.

——And there was no sign of this at all in the child in front of him.

"My name is Akashi Seijuro, what's your name?" the young boy asked calmly.

"My name on my ID card is Yeyue, so you can just call me Yeyue." Yeyue shrugged.

"Ah."

Even though what she said was strange, the boy's cold expression did not reveal the slightest flaw. Like a boss, he nodded lightly to indicate that he understood.

What a strange child, Yeyue muttered to herself.

"We are now caught here, does Akashi-kun have any clues?"

"Well," Akashi Seijuro thought silently, "I was arrested because I left home without permission. But it didn't seem like that group of people had planned it in advance. They suddenly got the idea after seeing me and tied me to the car on the road."

The boy paused and continued to think, "It's unlikely that they were kidnappers. Those people became interested after seeing my appearance, which means that the master behind them knows all about the sons of the rich and powerful... and then you came... So, they must be after you, and I just got caught in an unexpected disaster."

Akashi Seijuro said this, glancing obscurely at the darkness to the side, although he couldn't see Ye Yue at all.

"Think carefully about your value. Are you trying to extort money? Or are you eyeing the power behind the family and hoping to use you to threaten the family to achieve some purpose?"

Yeyue blinked in confusion. In fact, she was not panicked at all, because the system items on her body could protect her, and her physical fitness was even much higher than that of an ordinary adult.

"Yeyue-san." Akashi Seijuro waited for a while, and seeing that the girl was actually daydreaming, he interrupted her lightly.

"Ah? Oh," Ye Yue came back to her senses and briefly explained how she was kidnapped. "But I don't know what they want to do. I'm just an ordinary person, and I don't have a powerful family background like Akashi-kun. It's not worth it for them to send out such a group of extraordinary people just to kidnap me."

Is that so? Akashi Seijuro's judgment came to a standstill, and the boy frowned deeply.

Yeyue added, "Well, but my friend, her family background is very outstanding, the Kaedein family, does Akashi know?"

Kaedein family? Akashi Seijuro's eyes flashed with surprise.

He naturally knew about this family. Its history was not very long, which was not comparable to that of his Akashi family. It was a family that had risen in the past hundred years, but its wealth and power were comparable to that of the famously wealthy Atobe family.

Akashi Seijuro knew about this family because of an interesting story in their circle.

It is said that there was an extremely talented son of the Kaedein family, a branch of the family, who gave up the position of heir that was within his grasp and ran away from home, never returning for several years.

What puzzles Akashi Seijuro the most is that the powerful Kaedein family has not yet captured this outstanding heir. He doesn't know what concerns they have.

If Yeyue's friend is this mysterious member of the Fengyuan family, then perhaps his guess is correct.

It is said that the Fengyuan family is secretly connected with some mysterious forces. They made a lot of money by selling things of the extraordinary system and also made a lot of connections...

So, is he trying to use the Kaedein family to achieve some purpose?

"…This is just my analysis, but if that's the case, there's no need to worry about our safety. They won't do anything to us…You—what are you doing?" Akashi Seijuro was analyzing when he found that the man was silent, with only some rustling sounds coming from him.

Yeyue played with her box of osmanthus flowers as if it had nothing to do with her. "Relax, since nothing will happen, just stay calm."

"This is just my guess. It doesn't mean that we will be fine." Akashi Seijuro looked at her calmly, with an inexplicable momentum. The atmosphere was a little heavy.

Yeyue paused. But she had no idea about getting along with Kanna and her group. By the third round, she had already met many powerful people. She was not scared by a child.

She chuckled, dispelling the somewhat heavy atmosphere, "Well - don't be nervous. No matter what, they won't do anything to us for the time being. Even if our guess is accurate, there is no possibility of escaping the current predicament so far."

"Even so, you're still a little out of shape." Akashi Seijuro still disagreed.

He didn't know what the group of people were going to do, and the current situation was quite dangerous. He would not joke with his own life.

"Aha——"

Ye Yue laughed loudly, "We'd better not act rashly. Those people are all extraordinary people, and we don't know their details. Maybe the extraordinary people with eavesdropping ability have been listening to our words. In short, it's better not to act rashly without absolute certainty. Human life is very fragile."

She answered with her mouth, but her hands kept working. The leaves and osmanthus flowers she picked were too small to make a wreath that could be worn on the head, so she could only make it smaller. Because it was pitch black, she could only do it based on her feeling.

"I will not sit back and wait for death, and hand over the initiative to others. This is tantamount to handing my life and death to others."

Akashi Seijuro shook his head, his face calm, revealing the aura of a pampered upper heir. "I won't force you, but I still hope that you will assist me after considering it. Not only for me, but also for yourself."

Hearing his words, she couldn't help but follow the sound and look at the young boy who seemed to be in control of the situation. "There is no foolproof method in the world, and this is related to our lives..."

For me, if there is any foolproof method... it is for Kana to find me all the way.

With that person's strength, nothing will go wrong. The only thing he had to ensure was the safety of himself and Akashi Seijuro before that.

There will be no problem as I am protected by various system props, but the system props cannot be used directly on others. Unless he stays by my side all the time, I can protect him.

"I won't let you do anything."

After thinking about this, Yeyue decisively rejected Akashi Seijuro's proposal.

The boy frowned, as if he didn't expect to be rejected, and a trace of displeasure appeared on his calm face.

"Okay, don't be unhappy. I'll give you a small wreath, but it's a little wilted. Do you dislike it?"

Yeyue laughed to ease the awkward atmosphere between him and the little brat.
