Chapter 46: The Ring
"Aunt Yukie has always wanted …… to die." Kitayama Jinghuang uttered the word in very raw Chinese. "Die." For every resident who struggled hard to survive, it was really hard to understand why Kitayama Yukie would want to die after living within such a family that was so well-dressed and didn't worry about food and clothing. "Why?" Almost everyone was asking this question at this moment. Mo Yuan especially attached importance to this question, and even stepped forward, almost face to face with Kitayama Jinghuang: "She wanted to die, could it be that the final car accident was actually a suicide?" "No, it wasn't!" Beishan Jinghuang retorted with certainty, "At that time she did want to take me to live abroad ……" "Don't be in a hurry first, Mo Yuan, let her finish." Dong Ning is more attentive, she can see that this matter is Beishan Jinghuang's sadness, this time too push her instead may produce the opposite effect. Beishan Jinghuang thought for a while and organized her language, "I have since found some of Aunt Yukie's reading notes. Especially after reading books by Kawabata Yasunari, Mishima Yukio and others. She especially yearned for Mishima Yukio's ending where he ended his life by killing himself. She wanted to die in her best years, but she didn't want to die inside a shrine. She didn't want to die according to the ending her grandfather had planned for her." "Wait a minute …… "Hearing this, Mo Yuan felt a bit disorganized, "The …… ending that your maternal grandfather had arranged for her? " "She knew how she should die, when and where. I think it's because she ate meat." Mo Yuan already had some physical aversion to the word meat at this point. "Well …… if it's not necessary, when you talk about the word meat, use Japanese instead." After thinking about it, Mo Yuan said, "We've all memorized the Japanese pronunciation of meat." "Good …… it is. Anyway, that's all I know, and that's from Aunt Yukie's reading notes. Of course, even if I went to ask Grandfather, he wouldn't tell me anything." Wanting to decide how to die with free will. "She should know the consequences of dying outside the shrine." Dong Ning murmured and whispered, then raised her hand to lift the bangs on her forehead and said, "Is she doing this as a form of defiance, or revenge, against her father?" Because of the differences in her family of origin, having been loved by her parents since she was a child, only to lose both of her parents at the same time in that tragic car accident, Dong Ning found it hard to understand this kind of family relationship that rebelled against patriarchal authority. However, thinking about it, one could also realize how strong the hatred and loathing must be to rebel against one's own father with death? "It seems that as long as we find Beishan Zhenxin, your maternal grandfather, we'll know everything." Qin Ziyuan's eyes revealed a trace of gravity as he spoke. That old piker was already old, if he really wanted to catch him, he had to be careful with the torture to force a confession, or else it would be troublesome if he accidentally got him killed. On top of that, if the new witch Himura Kara could be captured …… "Hm? Wait?" Just at this time, Dong Ning suddenly swept a glance around, then asked, "Where's Ming …… Ming Tatsuhiko? Where is he?" Mo Yuan and Qin Ziyuan both revealed stunned expressions, then immediately both turned back! Behind them, were Nie Han and Fang Wenxuan, while Ming Chenyan …… had disappeared! Because Beishan Jinghuang could speak Chinese and didn't need Ming Chenyan to translate anymore, Mo Yuan and Qin Ziyuan didn't bother to pay attention to him, and in this blink of an eye, he actually disappeared! This time, all the residents were feeling appalled! "Who was the last one to see Ming Chenyan?" Mo Yuan gave himself a hard whack at this moment, he was the one who was careless! When he turned back just now, he only paid attention to whether there was anything extra, he didn't notice what was missing! "I, I didn't pay attention ……" Situ Wenxuan was also quite anxious at this time and said, "I've just been listening to you guys talking …… " As for Nie Han, there was no difference between asking and not asking, she was indifferent to anyone, not to mention that Ming Chenyan was even more of an insignificant figure to her. "Don't panic first!" Mo Yuan knew that stabilizing the army was the most important thing at this time, "Go find Ming Chenyan first, he's not necessarily dead yet!" Everyone knows that there is an interval between the deaths of the occupants, not to mention that this time, the blood word mission is relatively long, two occupants will not die for a long interval, but Ke Yin Yu, Dong Ning, and the three women of Beishan Jing Huang are different, there is no way to guarantee whether or not such a rule will protect them. Along the corridor, the occupants moved towards where Ming Chenyan was standing before. Although Mo Yuan said that, everyone basically didn't think that Ming Chen Yan still had any hope of surviving. After all, this kind of sudden disappearance of tenants, very few could survive. At this moment, the person who was most frightened was Dong Ning. It was important to realize that Dong Ning's line of sight was completely in a position where she could see Ming Chenyan. Although because she had previously focused all of her energy on Beishan Jinghuang, even so, Ming Chenyan could be said to have been taken away just like that in front of her! Thinking about it now, it was really a fine thought. Right at this moment, when they were about to walk to the location of the stairs, a person rushed down from the stairs! That person, was clearly Ming Chenyan, and on him, at this time, he was covered in blood! "I …… I ……" Looking at Ming Chenyan who was covered in blood, Mo Yuan and the others all took a big step back. "Akatsuhiko, you?" "Don't come over yet!" Qin Ziyuan bellowed, gazing coldly at Ming Chenyan as he asked, "What was your first girlfriend's name?" "Huh? I didn't tell you the name of my first girlfriend!" "That's right." Qin Ziyuan nodded and pointed at him and asked, "Whose blood is on you?" "I …… don't know. When I came to my senses, my body was all covered in blood." Looking at the blood on his body, one couldn't help but feel an abnormal heart tremor in one's heart. "Wait." Dong Ning walked up and said, "Turn your body around and take a look." She noticed that behind Ming Chenyan, there was also blood dripping down. Ming Chenyan was in shock, so when he heard Dong Ning say this, he turned his body around. Then, all the residents saw that behind Ming Chenyan's back, there was a striking bloody palm print! Seeing this scene, everyone felt their hearts tremble. And Dong Ning came closer to the bloody palm print and suddenly pointed at the ring finger in it and said, "Look, you guys!" This palm was clearly the left hand, and on one of the segments of the ring finger, two letters were clearly printed. JK. "This is the trace of a ring!" Dong Ning noticed that the blood above and below these two letters was relatively slightly lighter, while in the center was a very deep circle of blood marks. This circle was none other than the ring of the wedding ring! "Do you have an impression of this?" Dong Ning pointed at this imprint and said to Beishan Jinghuang. Beishan Jinghuang walked up and took a closer look, but his eyes widened. "This is my mother s …… wedding ring!" Hearing this, everyone else was startled. "That's right, J is the first letter of my father's last name, Jing, and K is the first letter of Kitayama, the Romanization of Kitayama. It's also because of my father's surname that both my brother and I have the character Jing in our names. My brother's Chinese name is Jing Tianlong." In that case …… "Yes," Ming Chenyan also said in a trembling voice, "I just felt something pulling me behind me, and by the time I reacted, I was already on top of the staircase steps!" Nie Han suddenly moved at this time, she quickly came to the front of the staircase steps and looked towards the top, and above the stairs, there was silence at this time …… "Let's leave this first!" Obviously, this belonged to the clue hints given by the apartment! Not to kill Ming Tatsuhiko, but let him to bring back this living tip! "My mother is already …… dead?" Kitayama Jinghuang walked while paying attention to Ming Chenyan's back. At this time, she was really a bit unable to believe it. I'm afraid that the total number of times she had met with her mother since she was born could be counted on two hands. After the incident with Aunt Yukie, Grandfather had not been too keen on her mother coming to Japan to see her frequently. "Did ……" It was at this time that a horrible speculation arose in Kitayama Jinghuang. Mother had suffered from colorectal cancer before, and although she had undergone an operation and said that it had gone well, was that really the truth? Could it be that she had already passed away a long time ago outside …… the shrine due to cancer? Was this the source of the mutation?
