Chapter 523 Belmode’s Secret (Part 2)
The secret told by Belmode shocked Lin Xinyi, but he couldn't help but sigh "That's it".
After all, Belmode would actually adopt a child
This in itself is a matter of great concern.
Lin Xinyi, Hui Yuan Ai, and even others in the organization all thought that the Thousand Faced Witch might be tired from the bloody life, so she wanted to have a child to lighten her mood.
But now, Belmod has given him a more reasonable explanation:
It turns out that she and him were originally "a family."
They share the same family bloodline. It can be said that they are distant relatives who came out of the fifth server, changed their surnames, and crossed races.
this.
Where is the "kiss" here?
Would Belmode adopt a little boy who has nothing special except being handsome just because he has such a distant blood connection with him?
"Sister" Lin Xinyi asked thoughtfully: "You adopted me, is it because you knew my parents before?"
"And what does this have to do with what we are going to talk about, the organization's secrets?"
"." Belmode did not give a direct answer.
She sat lazily on the edge of the bed, crossing her legs comfortably and gracefully. She slowly fumbled for a slender women's cigarette from her arms, lit it, took a deep breath, and then exhaled a thick puff of smoke.
Then it was followed by a sigh that was so low that it was hard to hear clearly.
A desolate atmosphere of "she was smoking and talking about the past" was created in this way.
But Belmode was not acting at this time.
Lin Xinyi couldn't give a reason, but he just felt that he could see that the pain in her eyes at this moment was real.
"This whole thing is a long story."
“Let’s start with our ‘family’”
"A clan." Lin Xinyi felt a little uncomfortable as he chewed on this ancient word with strong feudal remnants.
Thinking about the various supernatural powers that exist in this world, he couldn't help but asked with some concern:
"Is there anything special about our clan?"
Although the lineage theory is very offensive.
But if possible, Lin Xinyi really hopes that there is some special blood in his body that can make his hair suddenly turn golden.
"special?"
Belmode smiled disdainfully:
"We are all human, what can be special?!"
Not always.
Do you remember Kyogoku Makoto, sister?
Lin Xinyi wanted to interrupt, but Belmode was already going on by himself:
"If I have to say special, it would be special because we have a great man in our family."
"But it's not just bad for us."
"Instead, it's a curse."
As he spoke, Belmode bit his lips unconsciously.
Her pain could no longer be concealed.
It is also the first time that these emotions are revealed in front of others:
"And the 'big man' from our family is the opponent you are about to face, the boss of the organization."
"Karasuma Renya."
"Karasuma Renye." Lin Xinyi felt that the name was strange, but it was also somewhat familiar.
If you think about it carefully, it seems that this gentleman is indeed a big shot.
By the way, he seems to have appeared in a TV documentary
In the history of Japan in this world, there are big entrepreneurs who have a huge influence on this country and even the entire world.
It is said that the Karasuma family was a local power during the Tokugawa shogunate era. It began to prosper after the Meiji Restoration and grew into a behemoth during the Taisho era. By the Showa era, it was already a multinational chaebol that spanned the east and west and spread across the world.
Until the regency period of Emperor MacArthur, and later the Showa period of the son-emperor.
The fate of the Karasuma family has surpassed the fate of his motherland, and has developed into the world's top family that even Omi's old money can respect, admire, and even look up to.
Even the Suzuki Consortium, which is so prominent in Japan today that it doesn't feel bad about blowing up a skyscraper every year, is far from being able to compare with the Karasuma Consortium's status in the capital world back then.
But all this came to an abrupt end 40 years ago.
Forty years ago, Renya Karasuma, the head of the Karasuma family who turned 100, "passed away due to illness." After his death, no one inherited his huge family property. It fell apart and disappeared in a short period of time.
So Renya Karasuma's name became history completely.
But now, the characters seen in this historical documentary are actually
Appeared in Belmod's words?
And he was also said to be the boss of the organization?
"How is this possible?"
Lin Xinbai was puzzled:
"The documentary said that Renye Karasuma turned 100 years ago 40 years ago."
"If he lived to this day, wouldn't he have to be 140 years old?"
The theoretical life span of a human being is about 120 years old. This is a reliable conclusion based on practical investigation and scientific verification.
There has never been an existence that has exceeded this limit in history.
That's why when a 130-year-old longevity mother-in-law appeared on the island of the United States, it aroused such great public opinion that it attracted so many dignitaries and dignitaries to come to pray to gods and Buddhas.
And this 130-year-old mother-in-law is still fake.
If Renye Karasuma could live to be 140, wouldn't he be like Zhang Sanfeng?
"I knew you would be suspicious."
Belmod sighed deeply, with a complicated expression:
"Yes, human lifespan does have a limit."
"So...that bastard is no longer a human being."
"He turned into a demon!"
She quietly clenched her fists until her joints turned white:
"Actually, the Karasuma Consortium was a relatively legal and normal enterprise 50 years ago, before Renye Karasuma was 90 years old."
"But after Renya Karasuma turned 90, everything changed——"
"He recognized the inevitability of death."
"Ageing has made this once great man feel fear like never before."
"And that fear can drive people crazy."
Even Qin Shi Huang could not resist the temptation of immortality.
And because of this fear of death, those high-ranking officials can even collectively lower their IQs and engage in the deceptive behavior of human beings, such as organizing groups to come to the American island to pray for gods and Buddhas and pray for immortality.
So Karasuma Renya was not immune to the common deeds.
But he's smart.
He was smart because he did not place his hopes on metaphysics like those dignitaries and spent all his energy dealing with the master of magic sticks.
Renya Karasuma chose science.
He insists on using scientific and technological innovation as the engine to promote the upgrading and transformation of enterprises and industries, boldly explores, has the courage to practice, concentrates efforts to overcome difficulties, strives to break through the limit of human physiological life span, and sets off an ideological revolution and industrial revolution in the field of biological sciences.
In short, Karasuma Renye was just like Qin Shihuang, who was busy researching elixirs in his later years.
It's just that his scientific research team is more reliable.
They are all serious scientists, not half-baked alchemists who can make gunpowder by refining elixir.
If this research is successful, the future 21st century will truly be a century of biological science.
But 40 years ago, the double helix structure of DNA was just discovered by scientists.
Not to mention researching any elixir.
Not only did the research on elixirs led by Karasuma Renya fail to succeed, but he himself also failed in his "bold pioneering" and "brave practice":
"Conventional drug experiments are progressing slowly, and he, who was over 90 at the time, couldn't wait any longer."
"So this demon went completely crazy:"
"In order to speed up research, he began to use more evil and cruel methods to control his scientific researchers, and directly used kidnapped living people as experimental materials for the elixir."
"And the fatality rate of this human experiment is almost 100%."
"When things develop to this point, the Karasuma Consortium has completely transformed from a relatively 'clean' consortium into an outright criminal organization."
Belmode lamented and said:
Although the Japanese have long had a scientific research tradition of directly conducting experiments on living people - although they do not admit it now.
Moreover, the Americans accepted all these perverted scientists after the war, and even used the research results of these demons in the subsequent Peninsular War - although they do not mention it now.
But Karasuma Renye is not the invincible North American gangster after all, and his strength is far from worthy of his criminal ambitions.
When he began to research elixirs and conduct human experiments, it was already after World War II and the world was generally peaceful.
At this time, it is not easy to get living people to use as experimental materials.
What's more, this lunatic wants so much.
A few people, or even dozens of people, with the strength of the Karasuma Consortium, disappeared.
But what he needed for his experiment was hundreds, even thousands.
No matter how powerful the Karasuma Consortium is, it cannot protect Karasuma Renya from the heinous crime he committed in order to conduct human experiments.
Coupled with the valuable scientific research data he obtained from doing these dirty jobs, the intelligence agencies of some countries are also very interested.
So gradually, governments from various countries started to take action against him.
The black pig, the Karasuma Zaibatsu, is about to be killed.
"So Karasuma Renye can only choose to cut off her wrist to survive."
"He tried his best to transfer assets and set up organizations before governments of various countries attacked him, and managed to transfer most of the wealth and power of the Karasuma Consortium underground."
"So, the Karasuma Consortium disappeared."
"An 'organization' without a name was born."
Belmod explained clearly the origin of the organization, and then focused his attention on Renye Karasuma himself:
"After doing all this, Karasuma Renye announced to the outside world that he had 'passed away due to illness', causing the Karasuma Consortium to fall apart with his 'death' and become history forever."
"As for Karasuma Renye himself, he went underground with the organization and continued to preside over the illegal elixir research."
"At that time, he was already 100 years old."
"100 years old." Lin Xinyi's mouth twitched:
At the age of 100, he still goes underground to start a second business. This old man is really energetic.
Normal people would be unable to walk at this time, right?
"Is it because the research on the elixir was successful?"
"So he was allowed to live from 100 years old to now?"
"No, the research on the elixir was not successful."
Belmode shook his head and said meaningfully:
"At least, that was the case at the time."
"From 40 years ago to 20 years ago, there was not much progress in the research on elixirs during the entire 20 years."
"But Renya Karasuma, this old immortal, is really alive."
She rudely called the boss "old and immortal" and cursed through gritted teeth:
"He lived from 40 years ago to 20 years ago, and from 100 to 120 years old."
"Living to the theoretical limit of human lifespan."
"If things continue to develop like this, Renye Karasuma will die of old age by then."
"And I was able to escape from that old immortal's control and gain the freedom I once longed for."
"But."
"Twenty years ago, research on elixirs suddenly took a turn for the better."
"Because a couple of scientists appeared under Karasuma Renye's sight with an unprecedented research theory."
Speaking of this, Belmode stopped with an ugly expression.
She seemed to still harbor a hatred for the scientist couple.
Lin Xinyi also heard the identity of the couple:
"Those are Shiho's parents, right?"
"Hmm." As expected, only the family of scientists could master the unscientific elixir.
It's a pity that the Miyano couple were able to develop the elixir, but they couldn't save their own lives.
Lin Xinyi was lamenting and feeling sorry for his future parents-in-law in his mind.
Belmod showed an inexplicable dissatisfaction and added inappropriately:
"I have to tell you one more thing:"
"I said before that the reason why I object to your relationship with Miss Miyano is largely because of the relationship between us."
"And this relationship is not just a blood connection."
"It's more of a bond between survivors."
"Survivor?" Lin Xinyi heard a heavy meaning from this word.
And this heaviness was obviously related to his future parents-in-law, which made him feel a little uneasy.
At this time, I heard Belmode slowly say:
"It can be said that your biological parents died at the hands of your future 'parents-in-law'."
"Them. And me."
"And more members of the so-called Karasuma family."
Her beautiful face was deformed and twisted in hatred:
"They are just selected experimental materials."
