Genshin Impact, it's you who rejected me, why are you all in such a hurry if I just give up?

Lin Jiu'an asked doubtfully, "I didn't ask you to betray your husband."

Kayo Shinzato bit her lower lip tightly.

Lin Jiu'an had not made any demands on her regarding managing her desires, but if things continued like this, she was afraid she would be the one who couldn't hold on any longer.

—The simple act of biting her lower lip was almost unbearable for her.

Who delivered the letter?

“A servant of the Kamiri family.”

Lin Jiu'an opened the letter and began to read it. After a while, he stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.

It's unclear whether it was the increasing physical discomfort caused by the silence, or the worry for her daughter.

Kazuyo Kamisato spoke up, "What are you thinking about?"

"Take a look."

Kazumi Kayo took the letter. The letter simply described what had happened at Inazuma Castle and the Inazuma Shogunate's decision to send troops to Umijima Island again, and included the plan and route for the attack.

"What's wrong with this?"

"That's not a big problem."

This letter was not the one that Ayaka Kamisato wanted to give him.

Lin Jiu'an knew this.

The person sent by Ayaka Kamisato to deliver the letter was Kira, but it was not Kira who delivered the letter to him.

It was obvious that the letter was intercepted halfway. Of course, the actual contents of the letter were not important to him, because he had already learned about Kujo Takayuki and Kamisato Ayato's plan through the channels of the Fools, the group whose executive officer he had recently killed, from the Kujo family.

Even if you don't know, you can guess.

It was simply that he had no other choice but to rely on General Raiden's "unthinking slash" in the end.

"You know, this world is really simple."

Lin Jiu'an couldn't help but sigh, "When your bottom line becomes low enough and you are strong enough, the world is like a woman without underwear in front of you, easy to understand at a glance."

Then, noticing that Kagami Kazuyoshi's head was lowered even further, Lin Jiu'an waved his hand and said, "Sorry, I wasn't talking about you."

"I just suddenly remembered something from the past."

"Let me tell you a story."

"One day, a war broke out between a large neighboring country and a small neighboring country."

"There was a man who, though a general on the enemy side in the war, sympathized with all the soldiers in the war."

"Whether it's the enemy or our side, he tries his best not to kill. But he is very strong and his command ability is also quite good. Although he is outnumbered, he can win battle after battle. As a result, his reputation is getting better and better, regardless of whether it's the enemy or our side."

"And the enemy soldiers he forgave and saved were also grateful to him."

"After returning to the enemy's territory, many of them began to volunteer to act as his informants."

"The war ended quickly, and he wanted to return to the great power. He was actually sent by a faction within the great power to help the small country, but that faction allowed him to use his prestige to carry out reforms within the small country."

"He knew there was a great risk involved."

"But because of 'love,' he decided to take the risk and reform."

"But before that, just in case, he contacted people he had helped before and developed a number of inside contacts."

"Although the reforms encountered many obstacles, they were ultimately implemented. The only regret is that the person who was originally a 'national/war hero' became a pariah because of the reforms, but he didn't care."

"He did all this simply because he wanted to marry a woman."

"When everything was over, he naturally had to return to the great country, but he married that woman and went into seclusion."

"However, because he had been bitten by a snake, he did not leave the small country immediately, but waited there for a while."

"While he was waiting in the small country, he received a letter from the woman he had been longing for."

"The letter was very simple, congratulating him on his success, expressing sympathy for the insults he received from the people of the small country, and looking forward to their upcoming wedding and future life together after his return."

"He was happy, but he still kept waiting."

"And in the following period of time, he received thirty-seven letters in succession."

“Those were soldiers and merchants he had helped during the war.”

"Now that the war is over, some soldiers have stayed in the army, while many more have retired and returned home to work in various industries."

"The contents of the thirty-seven letters are not the same, but they all reveal the information he wants."

"To put it simply, there is peace in Inazuma Castle. Rumors are circulating that his beloved woman is preparing to get married, and the powerful and wealthy class of the great nation is preparing to welcome him, this meritorious official."

"These thirty-seven letters completely dispelled his doubts, and he embarked on his journey back to the great power."

"When he returned, his beloved woman's brother invited him to a banquet, which he naturally accepted."

"And at that banquet, he was poisoned."

He couldn't understand why all the hard work he had done, all at the behest of his beloved woman and her brother, had led to this fate.

"Of course, he still understands the principle of 'when the cunning rabbit dies, the hunting dog is cooked.'"

"What he couldn't understand was why the woman he loved treated him this way, and why none of the people he had saved and who had received his great kindness were willing to remind him."

"Can you guess why?"

Kamisato Kazuyo lowered his head even further.

"The beloved woman" refers to Ayaka Kamisato, "brother" refers to Ayato Kamisato, and "he" refers to Lin Jiu'an. She understood all of this, and she also roughly understood the answer to his question.

That's why she didn't dare to say it.

Lin Jiu'an then said to himself, "It's very simple."

"How can a mere act of kindness that saves one's life compare to the benefits that come one way?"

"I saved his life."

"But it can't help them overcome business difficulties, help them marry the women they love, or help them realize their dreams of success and starting a family."

"But he betrayed me, his savior."

"But they get everything they want."

"You see, everything in this world is actually very simple. To put it bluntly, it's nothing more than self-interest."

"The reason why there are feelings and kinship is simply because the weight on the other side of the scale is not heavy enough, that's all."

"But if you have enough strength."

Lin Jiu'an retrieved the envelope, and with a gust of wind, the envelope turned into powder.

"All the conspiracies and tricks are just the clown's joke."

“Ayaka, that’s not the kind of child you are.”

Kazuyo Kamisato's tone was full of helplessness and pleading.

"Yes, I'm curious too."

This is one of the questions that Lin Jiu'an still doesn't understand.

Why did Ayaka Kamisato want to kill him?

According to common sense.

Ayaka Kamisato would never do that.

Given her personality, even if she had someone else she liked, or didn't want to marry him, she would at most just drag him along; she wouldn't likely have the idea of ​​tricking him back and ruining him.

But this letter gave him another perspective on the issue.

What if the last letter that Ayaka Kamisato gave him in his past life wasn't actually written by Ayaka Kamisato, but rather by Ayato Kamisato imitating Ayaka Kamisato's handwriting?

Chapter Sixteen: Choice / General Thunder (4K)

late at night.

Ayaka Kamisato tossed and turned in bed for a long time, unable to fall asleep.

Looking at the moonlight outside the window.

Her delicate, beautiful face was now filled with pain.

Logically speaking.

Given Qi Liangliang's speed, she should have finished delivering the letter and returned long ago, but the other party still hasn't come back.

When she went to the "Naganohara Fireworks Shop" to talk to Yomiya today, she casually asked him about it and learned from Yomiya that Kira had been missing for a long time, so long that the owner of the courier company had already reported it to the Tenryo Magistrate.

Ayaka Kamisato has already guessed who laid a hand on Kira.

He stood there in a daze for a while.

Ayaka Kamisato quietly got out of bed, dressed herself, packed her things, and then quietly left the bedroom, heading out of the Kamisato house.

But when she reached the corner of the corridor, Ayaka Kamisato saw Thomas's figure.

"Miss?"

Thomas was quite surprised to see her and asked, "Where are you going so late?"

"I'm planning to go out for a walk."

Why bring a small bag of luggage when you go out for a stroll?

"This is none of your business." Ayaka Kamisato's tone was unusually stiff.

Thomas didn't mind and said with a smile, "Miss, you can rest assured to leave anything to me. I will definitely take care of it for you."

Upon hearing this, Ayaka Kamisato clenched her small fist tightly.

That's it.

In previous lives.

She simply believed her brother and Thomas.

As the wife of the head of the Shinri family, she had a good relationship with the noblewomen and young ladies of the various families.

Therefore, she always gets all kinds of information very quickly.

At that time, she had already heard the rumors circulating in Inazuma that were detrimental to Lin Jiu'an.

The Inazuma Shogunate is about to take action against Lin Jiu'an.

She asked her brother, Ayato.

The other party replied that this was a joint decision made by the other three followers, and that their God family was powerless to change it.

She could only write letters to Lin Jiu'an.

She hoped he wouldn't come back and would leave Inazuma quickly, then she would leave Inazuma to find him.

The letter was delivered to Thomas, who, just like today, solemnly assured him that he would deliver the letter to Lin Jiu'an and tell him not to come back.

Ayaka Kamisato waited with a mixture of anticipation and guilt.

Although she initially had ulterior motives for getting to know Lin Jiu'an, after spending a long time with him, she genuinely intended to marry him, have children, leave the Shenli family, and start a new life with him after everything was over.

And now, that future is not far away.

She sheds all her burdens and elopes with a man she has feelings for to live a peaceful life.

But just as she was looking forward to it, she suddenly heard a piece of news that was like a bolt from the blue.

Lin Jiu'an is back.

Not only did he return, but he also attended the banquet held for him by Ayato Shinri. At the banquet, the Four Magistrates and the Fools gang surrounded and killed Lin Jiu'an, but fortunately, Lin Jiu'an managed to break through.

Then Lin Jiu'an became a "wanted criminal".

She was also imprisoned by Ayato Kamisato until Lin Jiu'an was arrested, after which the guards relaxed their duties slightly.

"Step aside."

"I'm sorry, Miss, but the head of the family instructed me not to let you leave."

Ayaka Kamisato's fingertips dug into her palm, her body trembling with rage.

"What if I insist on leaving?"
