Chapter 61 Gift
CBD center, 87th floor, Prens InterContinental Hotel.

According to his father's instructions, Yuan Zhisheng and his friends had already booked the entire presidential suite on this floor in advance.

Since the first day he brought Eri here, he kept seeing people wearing "Genji Heavy Industries" work clothes carrying various metal boxes from the hotel's freight elevator. It was not until today that it finally stopped.

This was not arranged by Gen Chisheng. Gen Chisheng asked these people and got the answer that they were also following the orders of Lord Tachibana Masamune to transport these boxes of unknown contents to Suite 8704.

Minamoto no Chisei confirmed with Tachibana Masamune that this was indeed the case.

"Don't worry about these for now." Tachibana Masamune said on the phone, "Your mission in China is to take care of and look after Eri. When the time is right, I will tell you everything."

Although he was puzzled by his father's behavior during this period, Gen Chisei still listened to what Tachibana Munemasa said.

The room assigned to Eri was on the other side of the corridor, Room 8723.

"Knock knock knock" there was a knock on the door. After a few seconds, Sakura Yabuki opened the door from inside the room.

Eri, who was standing by the window, turned around.

"How is Eri's health?" Gen Chisei asked in a low voice.

"The overall indicators are still within the normal range, but..."

The look of Sakura Yabuki hesitating to speak has already given Gen Chisei a clear understanding of Eri's current physical condition.

It is still normal at the moment, but it is about to reach the safety threshold.

Gen Chisei walked over to Eri, sat down, and stroked her head.

"Eri, are you feeling unwell?"

Eri shook her head and picked up the small notebook from the table.

"Not bad. When are we going to the park?"

Gen Chisei recalled what he had casually promised Eri the day before, and he didn't expect that she still remembered it.

As a brother, he wanted to fulfill his promise to his sister. But out of concern for Eri's health...

"It's okay, just let her go out and play for a while."

A familiar voice came from behind, which made Yuan Zhisheng stunned. He turned around and saw that it was really Tachibana Masamune standing at the door, with Crow and Yaksha following behind him timidly.

"Crow, Yasha, Miss Sakura, the three of you can take Miss out for a walk. Zhisheng and I have something to discuss."

Genshisei wanted to object: "But Erie's body..."

"It's okay. I know my limits. It won't be a big problem to let Eri go out for about an hour. After all, it's a rare opportunity to come to this foreign land. We should let her go out and get some fresh air to make the trip worthwhile, right? Haha?"

Her father, who always strictly forbade Eri to go out, actually took the initiative to ask Eri to go out for a walk? This was so unusual that Gen Chisei began to doubt whether the person in front of him was the strict head of the Snake Eight Clan, Tachibana Masamune.

But as Crow and others bowed to their father in unison, their father nodded towards him, and the seriousness in his eyes that made Yuan Zhisheng realize that the Tachibana Masamune in front of him was still the father he was familiar with.

He has the greatness and kindness of a father, as well as the responsibility and duty of a head of the family.

"Chisheng, come with me. Miss Sakura, you have always been very careful. Please make sure to keep an eye on her. If anything unexpected happens, you should know the consequences." Tachibana Masamune folded his arms and ordered without turning his head.

"Yes." Sakura Yabuki, Crow and Yasha all lowered their heads and answered.

Gen Chisei followed Tachibana Masamune and walked to one end of the corridor, which was the direction of Room 8704, which he had always been curious about.

He turned around and saw Miss Sakura holding Eri's hand and walking towards the elevator at the other end of the corridor. He and Eri walked in different directions, one on the left and one on the right, as if they were walking towards the opposite ends of heaven and earth in Ukiyo-e.

……

"How did you come to China from Japan?" Following behind Tachibana Masamune, Yuan Zhisheng couldn't help but ask, "Shouldn't you be dealing with the riots of the underground organization in Osaka?"

As the head of the Snake Eight Families, Tachibana Masamune should be stationed in the Neon headquarters. Even if he steps out of Tokyo, it will cause an uproar in both the black and white worlds.

What on earth could have made my dad travel thousands of miles to China?

And he also let himself bring Eri with him.

"The riot in Osaka has been temporarily quelled. I have more important things to do in China." Tachibana Masamune said without turning his head.

"what's up?"

"You'll find out soon."

Tachibana Masamune stopped in front of room 8704 and knocked on the door. Yuan Zhisheng suddenly noticed something strange. It seemed that no one else was seen on the 87th floor today.

They had booked all the rooms on the 87th floor, so there were no other guests, which was normal, but a few days ago, I could still see waiters coming to replace the items in the room. But today, I didn't even see any waiters.

Gen Chisei had an illusion that after Miss Sakura and the others took Eri away, he and Masamune Tachibana were the only two people left on the 87th floor.
But this illusion disappeared the next moment. As the rhythmic knocks on the door sounded, a dull voice came from room 8704:
"Who?"

"It's me." Tachibana Masamune responded. There was silence inside the door for a few seconds, and then there was a rustling sound of the door opening. The moment the door opened, Gen Chisheng saw a group of people wearing white doctor's coats and masks, covering their entire bodies tightly. A quick glance showed that there were at least seven or eight people.

Yuan Zhisheng was stunned. He had never expected that Room 8704, which he had been curious about for the past few days, actually housed a group of...doctors?
When did they move in? Why didn't I notice anything?

"Who is he?"

The doctor who opened the door for them asked coldly from behind his mask, his pure golden eyes revealing a strong sense of vigilance.

Yuan Zhisheng suddenly realized that the doctor in front of him, no, this group of doctors in front of him, were most likely mixed-race.

And judging from the color of his eyes, his bloodline is quite pure, reaching B... or even higher.

"Come in and talk. It's not convenient outside." said Masamune Tachibana.

The doctor looked Gen Chisheng up and down and nodded. Gen Chisheng followed Tachibana Masamune into the room and the door closed heavily behind them.

"Let me introduce you to each other."

The room was full of white curtains, and it was impossible to see what was inside. Yuan Zhisheng wanted to observe it more, but immediately met the unfriendly gazes of several doctors.

Yuan Zhisheng immediately withdrew his gaze.

Perhaps because the atmosphere was too tense, Tachibana Masamune suddenly laughed, broke the silence, and introduced Gen Chisei to the doctor.

"This is my son Yuan Zhisheng, the young master of the Sheqi Eight Clan. If nothing unexpected happens, he will succeed me and become the head of the Sheqi Eight Clan in a few years."

Then, Tachibana Masamune turned to Minamoto Chisei and introduced:

"This is Doctor Chen. You can just call him Doctor Chen. He is an old friend of mine. I came to China just to see him."

Come to see a group of mixed-race doctors?

For some reason, Yuan Zhisheng did not have a good first impression of Dr. Chen and his colleagues. Perhaps it was because these people exuded a strange and suspicious aura.

However, since they were his father's friends after all, Yuan Zhisheng still bowed to them politely.

"Hello everyone, I am Yuan Zhisheng. It's our first meeting. I hope you can give me your guidance."

Doctor Chen just nodded quietly as a response.

"Chisheng, don't mind it. Doctor Chen is just like that. He doesn't mean to look down on you." Tachibana Masamune patted Minamoto Chisheng on the shoulder. "Doctor Chen is my friend, and even more so, he is a friend of the Eight Snake Families."

"I don't care, father." Gen Chisheng still changed his address to Tachibana Munemasa as father in formal occasions. "I'm just curious, did you leave your job in Japan and come all the way to China just to reminisce with old friends? This is not like your style. And I still don't understand why you asked me to bring Eri with me."

Tachibana Masamune smiled cheerfully: "Doctor Chen is here to help us completely solve Eri's physical problems."

"Is there something wrong with Eri's health?"

This sentence made Yuan Zhisheng's heart suddenly jump. Over the years, the eight families of Sheqi have spent all their financial and material resources to find a way to treat Eri's illness, but there has been no progress.

To this end, he even went to Kassel Academy, a gathering place for mixed-bloods, for further studies, but he still failed to find an effective way to treat Eri.

Her condition is so unique that it may be the only one of its kind in the world.

However, the old man said that this group of mysterious people in front of him could cure Eri. I have to admit that this really made Gen Chisheng excited.

However, even though he was moved, Gen Chisei still couldn't believe that these people who came from nowhere could completely cure Eri.

Tachibana Masamune saw the doubt on Minamoto Chisei's face, "Why, Chisei, you don't believe it?"

Gen Chisei took a deep breath and lowered his head and said, "Yes, father, I know Eri's illness best. I find it hard to believe that there is anyone in the world who can completely cure her."

"You'll know once I show you something."

"Look at something?"

"It's a gift from Dr. Chen."

Yuan Zhisheng looked up in confusion, only to see Tachibana Munemasa asking Dr. Chen, "Did you bring the box?"

Doctor Chen nodded and waved, and two people also in white coats came up to Tachibana Munemasa and Minamoto Chisei, holding a box.

It was a very common black suitcase. The leather looked rough and tough. There was a silver nameplate on the front with a lushly growing world tree engraved on it.

Yuan Zhisheng had seen a similar emblem before, which was the emblem of Kassel College. However, the emblem of Kassel College was a half-rotten world tree, while this one was a complete world tree with lush branches and leaves.

"Open it." Dr. Chen ordered in a heavy and hoarse voice.

One of the two people continued to hold the box while the other gently unfastened the lock. As the box opened, Yuan Zhisheng saw the thing inside and an expression of disbelief and shock appeared on his face.

Lying inside the box was actually a beating heart!
