Zongman: Unknowingly trapped in the hatchet

?

"Real things?" Su Qing shook his head gently and denied the idea without hesitation. "Trying to chase after something so illusory will only accelerate the process of destruction."

"So....what should I do?"

Yang Nai's eyes gradually became cloudy and empty, no longer as clear as before.

It is hard to imagine that the senior sister Yang Nai, who was so powerful in school, would now be like a puppet.

——This is what should happen to those who stare into the abyss.

"It's very simple." Su Qing raised a strange smile and leaned close to Yang Nai's ear. His low voice was like [the whispers of the abyss], but the system panel no longer gave any prompts.

then.

He slowly uttered two words:

“Seize power.”

"Seize...power?" Yang Nai murmured again.

"As long as you become the head of the Yukinoshita family, you don't have to worry about anything. Be it your mother or your father, your sister is the most important. I can feel this [aura]. That's what you think, right?"

Su Qing continued to speak, seemingly bewitching.

"My sister... is the most important." Yang No was struggling in her heart.

It is true that she values ​​Yukino the most, but her mother and father are also her family.

The education she received since childhood made it impossible for her not to care.

and many more……

Father?

Mother?

Where were they when Yukino was bullied?

What is [Under the Snow], what is [Generosity].

She never imagined that her mother would be so...heartless at that moment.

and so.

The only person I must protect is my younger sister.

Think about this.

Yang Nai subconsciously bit the tip of his tongue hard, and immediately a trace of blood came out.

Under this pain, her originally confused thoughts finally gained a moment of clarity.

She showed a look of fear, and quickly took two steps back, assuming a guard posture, and shouted sternly:

"What do you want to do?"

"You shouldn't ask me, you should ask yourself." Su Qing shook his head, his tone relaxed, "Are you denying that it's not your true inner thoughts?"

Yes.

[Gaze into the Abyss] will only arouse people's deepest desires.

Everything has a traceable origin.

"Okay. Even so, if this were so easy to do, I would have done it a long time ago."

Yang Nai still did not let down his guard and looked at Su Qing vigilantly.

But she was obviously moved at this moment.

The family is a large interest group, and the head of the family only has most of the say.

But if she could unite the rest of the forces, coupled with her status as the legitimate heir, it would be enough for her to take the throne early.

But she still lacked a reason.

A reason that was enough to convince her.

"I'll help you." Su Qing said.

"How can we help?" Yang Nai immediately asked, "With your 'deceitful words'?"

"That's a harsh thing to say. I'm just good at bringing out the dark side of people's hearts." Su Qing smiled faintly, but slowly picked up the longbow under Yang Nai's surprised gaze.

"You are like this...how can I believe you?" Yang Nai clenched his fists unconsciously.

So the other party is not sure either?

Then why were you saying so much just now!

Want to see the internal strife and decline of the [Yukinoshita Family]?

She's not a fool.

She is a businesswoman.

Businessmen will not believe in a blank check.

Seeing Su Qing playing with the longbow, Yang Nai said in a mysterious way:

"If you can shoot three arrows in one breath like me, and all of them are above nine rings, I will believe you, how about that?"

This is impossible to do.

From the way the other person held the bow and the layout of the calluses on his hands, Yang Nai could be sure that this was definitely his first time.

Especially since she had read the files, she knew that Su Qing was neither from a nomadic minority nor had he received any professional training.

Yang was deliberately making things difficult for him.

If she fails, she will have to realize her unrealistic idea on her own.

She didn't want to be a tool of the family anymore.

Too boring.

She just wanted to be a good sister, that's all.

"Nine Rings?"

Su Qing looked at Yang Nai, as if to confirm.

"If you can't do it, just give up. From now on, don't get close to Yukino, otherwise I have plenty of ways to make you leave." Yangno no longer pretended to be sunny and threatened.

"What does this have to do with her?" Su Qing smiled, as if disdainfully, "I just think it's too easy."

"Don't brag. This is your first time using a bow and arrow. Are you pretending? That's just self-deception."

Yang Nai couldn't help but sneer, but she couldn't help but get nervous inside.

At this moment, she actually hoped very much that Su Qing could really do it. If that was the case... maybe there would really be a glimmer of hope.

Yang Nai did not get any response from Su Qing.

Because at this time Su Qing had already pulled the bow to its full string.

Whoosh——

Whoosh——

Sharp sounds of breaking through the air broke the silence around.

Yang No's pupils also dilated little by little, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

After Su Qing gently put down the bow, he slowly moved to Yang Nai's side, with a smile on his face, and invited her:

"cooperate?"

Really ridiculous.

Yang is the heir of the Yukinoshita family in Chiba County, who has the final say. Who is Su Qing?

To put it mildly.

Just students with better grades.

But Yang Nai could no longer suppress her inner excitement.

Gambling is the biggest addiction.

Once you are infected, there is no possibility of waking up unless you hit your head against the wall.

“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”

Yang Nai suddenly smiled brightly, a real smile.

She had never felt so...happy as she did at that moment.

……

……

?

The negotiations with Yang Nai came to a temporary end, and Su Qing walked slowly on the street.

But his complexion didn't look very good.

Just now, the system prompted again——

【A heart as clear as a mirror and still water】

[Degree of collapse: 10% → 25%]

Collapse, what does this mean?

The system seems to only serve as a warning and no longer provides any effective information.

He can only speculate on his own.

Su Qing suddenly remembered that Xue Noi had once mentioned the topic of [hypersomnia] to him, but he didn't care about it at that time.

Because the series of collapses caused by hyperthymesia did not happen to him.

But now he had to think carefully.

[The mind is clear and calm, the heart is pure, respond to things as they come, and don’t dwell on the past]

This is the interpretation of the mind like a clear mirror and still water in Zhuangzi’s De Chong Fu.

If this is the reason why it hasn't collapsed yet, what will happen when the degree of collapse reaches 100%?

Su Qing didn't dare to think about it.

For the first time, he raised his eyes in confusion and stared blankly ahead.

Night is approaching.

The lights of thousands of homes spread out like a scroll, and stand tall before your eyes like mountains.

The setting sun is dragging the shadow along.

The afterglow shone through the clouds, cutting the branches and leaves into pieces.

beep--

beep--

A message from Mahiru came through the phone.

【Shiina Mahiru】: Grievance (animated expression)

[Shiina Mahiru]: Haven't you finished your work yet? I'm telling you, the egg pudding I made today is delicious.

(Don’t ask me how I know this, I just ate one secretly!)

If you don’t come back, I’ll eat them all!

The phone no longer vibrates.

The girl opposite seemed to be hesitating.

In a dilemma.

After a while.

Just then another message came.

[Shiina Mahiru]: ...I missed you a little. So, I'll wait for you to come back home.

【Shiina Mahiru】: Well behaved (animated expression)

Su Qing stood there in a daze, staring at the screen for a long time without moving.

Talk about it.

Looks like it's time for dinner with Mahiru?

It's not dark yet.

You still have time.

that is really good……

"It's not dark yet, how great..."

Su Qing murmured.

at this time.

A middle-aged man happened to pass by, but Su Qing didn't care.

There had never been a time when he wanted to go home so much.

The pace gradually quickened.

gradually.

His figure disappeared into the twilight.

"It's not dark yet? Are young people nowadays so weak... It's already past six in the evening, and it's winter, not summer..."

Behind.

The middle-aged man looked at the time on his mobile phone unconfidently, then complained in the direction where Su Qing had disappeared.

……

……

PS:

what.

What I wrote today is really tangy. It’s really not suitable for me to write this kind of thing. Sorry.

Let’s talk about what happens next.

In tomorrow's chapter, there will be [significant] progress in the relationship with Mahiru.

About 66 to 70 words in total.

that's all.
