The Journey To Become The Strongest
Chapter 142 — Mission Level C (12)
Instantly, Nakato Yuji's facial expression became tense. He looked anxious, anxious and afraid. However, Lian Haocun's sharp gaze alone could scare adults, let alone an eight-year-old child like Yuji, it was certain that he would be overwhelmed by Lian Haocun's sharp gaze.
Still with a bone-chilling glare, Lian Haocun asked, “Why do you look so tense? Kan, it wasn't you who killed him.”
Nakato Yuji immediately reacted by trying to relax his facial and body expressions, but, naturally, all of that did not escape Lian Haocun's vision. Then, as if getting an idea, Nakato Yuji shouted, “Not me! I didn't kill him! That guy killed him!”
Nakato Yuji's trembling body, added to the impression that he had just recalled a terrible memory. Lian Huanran was a little pityed with Nakato Yuji, he intended to stop Lian Haocun's actions which were arguably, oppressing little children, but, he himself did not know for sure, whether Nakato Yuji was lying or telling the truth, but he did not know for sure, until then, Lian Huanran decided to remain silent on the spot, and observe what would happen next.
While Mr and Mrs Nakato looked puzzled and astonished by what Lian Haocun was doing. However, who wouldn't be confused, when the person who brought the news of their youngest daughter was no longer a spirit, asked their son a nonsensical question. Plus during the conversation earlier, they did not feel that Lian Haocun had any ill intentions, so they could not react to what had happened.
In a cold and calm tone, Lian Haocun said, “Then who killed him? How do you know he killed her?”
Instantly, Nakato Yuji fell silent. He was really confused on how to answer Lian Haocun's question. Not finding the right answer, Nakato Yuji could only shout while running towards his father and mother, “I don't want to answer! Go!”
Sure, Lian Haocun realized that Nakato Akami wanted to expel them, but he did not back down at all, and instead said, “Then, how about I say your son killed your youngest daughter?”
Lian Haocun's tone was very calm, as if he did not know that his words were a bomb to Nakato Akami and Nakato Mai.
With an elegant demeanor, Nakato Mai bellowed furiously, “Enough! What's your evidence that Yuji killed Rie!? When Rie disappears, Yuji is asleep! How can you tell such a big lie with a calm face!?”
Not caring about Nakato Mai's anger or Nakato Akami's, Lian Haocun continued adding fire, “Why don't you ask him yourself? Is that a lie, or is it reality? Plus, if it's a lie, why doesn't he tell us who killed Nakato Rie actually?”
Nakato Mai who was intending to shout furiously again, froze on the spot. The rational side, says that what Lian Haocun said is very reasonable, but the emotional side, says things that are far opposite. Nakato Akami is as confused as Nakato Mai.
After all, they are still parents. They love Nakato Rie, and of course also love Nakato Yuji. Moreover, the disappearance of Nakato Rie, making their attention both centered on Nakato Yuji every day, they did not want to, their only son also disappeared without a trace.
