Chapter 127 You said you'd do anything?
After listening for a while and confirming that there was no other useful information, Lin Xiuyi pressed the stop button.
He took off his headphones, remained silent for a moment, and then put the three tapes into the inner pocket of his coat.
"Sorry, it's better if I keep this."
Akemi Miyano looked at him and nodded gently.
She knew perfectly well why the other person was doing this.
Aging and death are things that no one can escape and that everyone fears most.
If the secrets related to Lin Xiuyi in the tape were leaked, then it would probably be more than just the Black Organization that would come after him.
Those around the world who crave immortality, the wealthy who wield power, and the mad scientists will flock here like sharks smelling blood.
Lin Xiuyi carefully put away the tape, feeling a mix of emotions.
More than 20 years ago, I almost died without even realizing it.
If Elena Miyano hadn't persuaded Atsushi Miyano, but instead reported his situation to the Black Organization...
He might not be sitting in a comfortable car now, but lying on a cold dissection table.
He took a deep breath and suppressed those thoughts.
The past cannot be changed, but the future can still be strived for.
……
After listening to the recording, it was already 4:30 pm.
Lin Xiuyi had skipped work for an afternoon at Teitan Elementary School, so naturally he didn't need to go there.
He took out his phone and dialed Judy's number:
"Go pick Xiaolan up and take her home. I have something to do here, I'll be back later."
After hanging up the phone, he had Li Long drive him to another of his properties in Tokyo.
It was an unassuming apartment building, nestled in a quiet alley.
The surrounding area consists of ordinary residential houses and a few small shops.
Unlike the detached villas in 2-chome, this property is just a small studio apartment.
It's about 30 square meters, with simple furniture.
Lin Xiuyi bought this place in the first place because he was worried about encountering any accidents and wanted it as a place to hide.
He opened the door and stepped aside to let Akemi Miyano in.
The room was somewhat dim, with most of the afternoon sunlight blocked by the curtains.
Lin Xiuyi walked to the window, drew back the curtains, and let the light in.
Dust particles danced slowly within the beam of light.
"There's food and utilities in the house." He turned to Akemi Miyano. "Stay here for a couple of days. I'll come back and discuss it with you when I come up with a plan."
Akemi Miyano stood in the center of the room, looked around, and finally her gaze settled on Hideaki Hayashi's face: "Hmm."
Lin Xiu turned to leave. Just as his hand touched the doorknob, he suddenly felt a tight grip on his arm.
Akemi Miyano caught up with him and grabbed his arms with both hands.
"Mr. Lin."
The girl's voice was somewhat hesitant, and her sapphire blue eyes stared straight at him, as if trying to find some kind of confirmation in his face.
"Are you... really going to save Shiho?"
Lin Xiu turned around and looked at the girl in front of her. Her eyes held deep worry and unease.
The worry wasn't for himself, but for his younger sister who was still trapped in the darkness.
Lin Xiu grasped the girl's hand in return, feeling a cool touch in his palm. He squeezed it tightly, transferring his warmth to her.
"Don't worry. That child is like my daughter. I won't abandon her."
Akemi Miyano's hand gradually warmed in his palm.
She lowered her eyes, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, as if she were processing the weight of those words.
A moment later, she raised her head and looked at Lin Xiuyi again.
This time, her gaze was no longer filled with trepidation, but instead with an almost solemn seriousness.
"Mr. Lin, I know," the girl said, emphasizing each word. "Shiho and you actually have no connection other than that blood relation. Even that blood relation wasn't something you chose."
She paused, then took a deep breath.
"But no matter what, I beg you, please save Shiho!"
At this point, Akemi Miyano suddenly bit her red lips, as if she had made a great decision.
Before Lin Xiuyi could react, she raised her arm, took his hand, and slowly, slowly moved it to her chest.
A soft touch came from beneath my palm, and through the thin fabric, I could feel the heartbeat there, rapid and powerful, like a startled fawn thrashing wildly in my chest.
"Mr. Lin."
Akemi Miyano's face was completely red, even the tips of her ears were tinged pink.
But her gaze didn't waver; she looked straight at him.
"I'm willing to pay any price to save Shiho."
The girl's expression was so resolute it was almost tragic, and her sapphire blue eyes burned with a kind of unwavering light.
Like a moth drawn to a flame, she was willing to throw herself into any fire for her sister.
Lin Xiuyi suddenly felt a pang of emotion.
For her younger sister, Akemi Miyano, as the older sister, has truly given everything she could.
He smiled slightly and withdrew his hand from the girl's.
The moment his palm left that soft spot, he noticed that Miyano Akemi's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she had breathed a sigh of relief, or perhaps felt a little disappointed.
Lin Xiuyi playfully reached out and pinched Miyano Akemi's cheek.
Her cheeks were burning hot and soft, like freshly baked bread.
"Don't worry, although I have many flaws, I always keep my promises and can always do what I say."
Lin Xiuyi withdrew her hand, her smile deepening.
"Especially when it comes to promises to beautiful women, I always keep my word."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Akemi Miyano stood there, somewhat dazed.
She watched Lin Xiuyi's back as he walked to the door, his hand already on the doorknob, and then he suddenly stopped.
"By the way, Ms. Miyano."
Lin Xiu turned around, a mischievous smile on her face.
"Does what you just said, 'I'm willing to do anything,' still count?"
"Huh?" Miyano Akemi was stunned.
She never expected that, just as he was about to leave, this issue would come up again.
Her fair face instantly turned as red as a tomato, and she helplessly twisted her hands together, her fingers fidgeting, unsure of where to put them.
"This, this..." the girl stammered, her voice growing softer and softer.
Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but laugh when he saw her embarrassed look.
"Don't worry, I won't let you do anything difficult."
He waved his hand, his tone becoming more serious.
"You're Shiho's older sister. If I do anything to you, she'll probably fight me to the death."
"Then..." Miyano Akemi raised her head, her sapphire blue eyes full of doubt.
She really couldn't understand what this man was trying to do.
"My household happens to be short of a maid."
Lin Xiuyi leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, and made a serious suggestion.
"After this incident, you probably have nowhere to go, right? How about you come work as a maid at my house?"
