The invoice listed nearly two-thirds of various canned goods and compressed biscuits, even omitting cakes.
Of course, he could understand Xia Shi's thoughts.
For the cursed child, survival is the first priority, and food that can be stored for a long time can save his life in critical moments.
As for issues like unbalanced nutrition, that's too far-fetched for them to consider; survival is what matters first.
If she didn't want the waiting children to enjoy a delicious dinner, she probably would have replaced even the leftover ingredients with something more affordable.
"These things are very important; if used sparingly, they can last a long time."
Xia Shi nodded. As the backbone, even though she was still young, she had a lot to consider.
It was under her leadership that the cursed children survived unscathed despite the increasingly harsh environment, and there was never a loss of lives.
Moreover, these canned goods and biscuits are just as delicious as the food we've had before, and we must prevent the greedy cursed son from coveting them; there must be no mistakes.
"While it may not be necessary to go that way... your way of thinking is certainly commendable."
Yalin gazed at Xia Shi with admiration. As expected of a genius with an IQ of 210.
It is truly regrettable that such a child died as he was destined to.
When she grows up, she will be a rare and valuable talent.
"Thank you for the compliment?"
Xia Shi said, puzzled, feeling a little uncomfortable being praised like that.
"However, carrying so much food back will be a hassle; we'll need a vehicle."
At the supermarket entrance, Yalin's gaze swept around and immediately locked onto a middle-aged man carrying a dagger with an excited expression.
The other party was opening the car door, preparing to head to the outer hunting area.
"Let's go, a kind person will take us back."
Yalin narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled.
......
In District 39, a group of cursed children excitedly unloaded food from the vehicle and called out to Yarin to come and eat.
Yalin smiled and waved his hand, then looked at the middle-aged man whose pupils were filled with fear but who could not move: "I'm in a good mood right now, so kill yourself."
Upon hearing this, the man struggled desperately, but his right hand wouldn't obey him. Trembling, he plunged the knife tip into his throat, and then collapsed to the ground, blood gushing out.
After collecting his soul, Yalin burned the body clean, making the light of the soul lamp even brighter.
Next, we need to cook for the cursed children; we can't leave any disgusting things out of the way.
......
Nighttime, Tokyo's First Ward.
Yalin wandered leisurely through the heavily guarded area, occasionally entering a luxurious mansion. Accompanied by faint screams and pleas for mercy, the people inside quickly fell silent.
A moment later, Yalin left the mansion, his freshly washed hands and faint smell of blood revealing what he had done.
This cycle repeats endlessly, like a ghost in the night.
However, none of the guards noticed anything amiss, and they continued to joke with each other, appearing quite relaxed.
After all, this is the most central area, and ordinary people don't even have the right to enter. If anyone tries to cause trouble, the consequences are self-evident.
Over the years, the tranquility of District One had numbed the guards' senses, leaving them completely unaware that a large-scale killing and control operation concerning an important figure in the Tokyo district was being carried out efficiently...
After dealing with Atsuro Kazuma and his family, Yalin looked at the man's unseeing eyes and shook his head.
All show and no substance; the members of the Five Flying Goose Club are truly of poor quality.
However, there were an unusually large number of bastards among these high-ranking officials. Even though he was prepared, he still couldn't help but skin, dismember, and kill more of the unforgivable criminals than he had anticipated.
As for the remaining officials whose crimes were less serious or their relatives whose crimes did not warrant death, they were all controlled by Yalin through contracts or other means to maintain basic order and prevent the collapse of the entire Tokyo area.
While it may not matter if most people die, there are still some who deserve to live.
Moreover, letting some people die so easily would be too lenient on them.
"The key next step is the Tian Tong family and the Holy Emperor."
Yalin looked towards the Tiantong family's residence, a top-tier mansion with an astonishingly large area. Located in the prime first district, where land is incredibly valuable, it symbolized the supreme power this family possessed.
Even the nominal leader, the Holy Emperor, is nothing more than a figurehead put forward by the Tendo family; real power is in the hands of an old man named Tendo Kikuno.
"Holding the emperor hostage to command the feudal lords, this old fellow's situation is somewhat similar to Ernest's."
Yalin smiled slightly and stepped into Tiantong's house.
......
In the dojo, Tendou Kikunojo looked at the draft proposal of the new Holy Emperor's "Gastrul Law" and snorted coldly.
Although he had high hopes for the current emperor, the other party's ideas were far too naive.
The cursed children are a bunch of demons with the blood of evil spirits, filthy worms.
To grant them equal human rights? What a joke!
Although it's just a general idea, it will take a considerable amount of time and face significant obstacles before it can be truly pushed forward and passed by the Senate.
But even the mere mention of such a suggestion angered Kikunojo Tendo.
Haven't we learned enough from the two previous invasions of the Tokyo area?
It seems we need to remind them a third time.
Tendou, Hikaru, Hinata, and several other grandsons squatted to one side, watching their grandfather's expression without saying a word.
Even though they hold high positions of power and are ministers admired by countless people, they still need to be extremely careful in front of Tendo Kikuno.
Only after Tendo Kikuno calmed down did Tendo Kazuhiro speak softly.
"Grandfather, are you really going to let Kisaragi and Rentaro leave the Tendo family without doing anything about it?"
The family has sacrificed a lot for them over the years.
Kisara is also engaged to the son of the Koma family; if she really leaves, the engagement will likely be void.
In addition, there was Rentaro Satomi, an adopted son who was originally groomed by the Tendo family to be the next politician. He was known as a child prodigy from a young age and was highly regarded.
As a result, after Tendo Kisara decided to leave, he actually followed her.
Such betrayal is simply unforgivable!
Volume 1: Chapter 165: The Holy Emperor's Expectations (4k)
Upon hearing this, Tendo Kikuno gave Tendo Kazuhiro a cold look and said indifferently.
"Rather than letting her behave like a vengeful ghost who wants to devour people all day long, as if she wants to kill everyone in the Tiantong family."
Leaving here actually saves us one less problem.
Although, if necessary, he wouldn't mind sending his granddaughter to hell to join his son and daughter-in-law, who were killed by Gastrea.
But since the other party hasn't taken any concrete action, why not let her off this time?
Not everyone can be a vengeful ghost.
Moreover, Kikuno Tendo still harbors a desire to bring Rentaro Satomi back.
He greatly admired his adopted son's talent in the political arena.
Given time, inheriting his mantle and ensuring the long-term prosperity of the Tiantong family will not be a problem.
The only problem is that Rentaro is too obsessed with playing house for the sake of so-called "justice".
He has been deceiving himself for this, imposing shackles on himself, and even abandoning his talent in the political field, wasting this ability.
As a result, they become weak and incompetent.
But it doesn't matter, the other party will realize it sooner or later.
One of the reasons why Tendo Kisara chose to let things go was because of the value of this adopted son.
"What if she finds out the truth about her father's death?"
Hinata Tendo asked with some concern.
Their actions were too hasty at the time, and some traces were inevitably left behind.
However, Tendoki was even less certain who did it, only knowing that it was the work of an insider.
"So what? The Tendo family is not as fragile as it used to be. Apart from that incident, it is impossible to shake its foundation."
Tian Tong Xuan Zhuo looked at Tian Tong and Guang, and was not worried about it.
He never cared about his youngest half-sister; she was just a madwoman.
Even if that matter is exposed, only Kazumitsu will suffer. For the all-powerful Tendo family, it's not a major issue that's difficult to resolve.
In this respect, he was somewhat gloating, hoping for an unexpected turn of events.
Outside the dojo, Yalin paused, listening with great interest to the Tendo family's conspiracy.
According to intelligence, this family is a model of filial piety and parental love.
Nine years ago, when humanity suffered a crushing defeat in the war, it began to build giant stone monuments for protection, with the thirty-second monument being overseen by Tendo and Hikaru.
In order to enrich himself, he chose to mix the ruby with other substances to create cheap megaliths, which weakened the magnetic field effect and made it much less effective on gastrulators.
This will be the catalyst for the third major war between the Tokyo area and Aldebaran's Gastrea army.
In addition, the Tiantong family committed numerous dirty deeds during their rise to power, and their sins are numerous.
The entire Tiantong family is utterly corrupt to the core.
Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but there are righteous figures like Kisara Tendo's father who remain untainted by the mud and decide to expose the truth after discovering the dark side.
As a result, the couple was tricked by their biological father, Kikuno Tendo, and several of their older biological children, who then attracted Gastrea to kill them.
This can be described as a classic case of father killing son and son killing father.
As a result, Kisara Tendo and Rentaro Satomi, who were present at the time, were also affected; one suffered kidney damage, and the other lost his hands, feet, and eyes.
By this point, Tendo Kisara and they were truly enemies.
