Chapter 36

Listening to Kuji Raiki's words, the samurais around them immediately became dangerous again.

Clearly, most people still harbored fear towards Unmei and Nishikata, and were unwilling to travel with these two.

And Fang Li had always stood on the side of Unmei and Nishikata, and had long been regarded as an enemy by the samurais.

Therefore, except for Kuji Raiki and Arakawa Kibito, the samurais slowly raised their spears.

"Damn..." Nishikata gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with hesitation as he looked at Fang Li.

Seeing the situation becoming irretrievable again, Nishikata no longer wanted to involve Fang Li.

So, the only thing Nishikata wanted to do now was to get Fang Li to go over there and not to be an enemy with the samurais for their sake.

That way, Fang Li would at least be able to survive.

Unfortunately, Nishikata didn't know that for Fang Li, survival was not the most important thing.

If one is not afraid of death, then living is not such an important matter.

However, even if living is not the most important thing, it doesn't mean that Fang Li was unwilling to live.

Thus, looking at the samurais who were slowly raising their spears, Fang Li thought to himself.

"It's about time for a situation to arise that can turn this around."

The confrontation between Fang Li and Kuji Raiki was triggered as a side quest.

This side quest reminded him that only failure would result in Fang Li being shot by the samurais.

In other words, according to the system's judgment, once Fang Li wins, an event that would change this outcome should occur.

Facts proved that Fang Li's guess was correct.

Just as the samurais were about to shoot Fang Li and the others, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Stop it quickly!"

The clear and pleasant voice immediately caught everyone's attention.

In the next second, everyone saw that from the door leading to the front car, Shizukanae Yonagawa entered with two attendants.

"Lord Shizukanae!"

The samurais were instantly surprised.

"Lord Shizukanae!"

Kuji Raiki and Arakawa Kibito were also startled, and quickly moved forward to protect Shizukanae Yonagawa.

"Lord Shizukanae, why are you here?" Kuji Raiki's expression was extremely serious as he said to Shizukanae Yonagawa, "It's too dangerous here, please go back to the front!"

Although the confrontation with Fang Li ended with Kuji Raiki's defeat, making him decide not to interfere anymore, there were still two non-human entities here, and it was not impossible for Shizukanae Yonagawa to encounter danger.

Shizukanae Yonagawa naturally understood this but shook her head.

"I'm sorry, Raiki, but this time, let me take charge."

Shizukanae Yonagawa looked at Fang Li, and the delicate and beautiful face that had a bit of coquetry a few days ago now showed only a sense of mission.

The mission of being the sole survivor of the Yonagawa family.

"Kaneki Station has fallen, and my father's death has been confirmed. Now, only I remain of the Yonagawa family. For the sake of the people in this Koutetsusei, I will take on the responsibility of management."

Shizukanae Yonagawa's expression was somewhat sad, but she still looked directly at Fang Li and said, "Mr. Fang Li, personally, I am willing to believe that you are not harmful beings, but for the sake of the people in Koutetsusei, I must ensure that you are harmless."

"...I understand." Fang Li met Shizukanae Yonagawa's gaze and asked straightforwardly, "What do you want to do?"

Shizukanae Yonagawa did not answer immediately but glanced at Nishikata, whose expression was uncertain, and then at Unmei, who was sleeping against the wall. After a moment, she made up her mind.

Then, Shizukanae Yonagawa spoke.

"I can let you stay on Koutetsusei."

This statement made Nishikata's eyes light up, and Fang Li's lips curled slightly.

However, the samurais were anxious.

"No! Lord Shizukanae!"

"We can't let those two monsters stay on Koutetsusei!"

"That's too dangerous!"

The advice from the samurais made Shizukanae Yonagawa say, "These three have fought against the Kabane. Without them, we might not have escaped. Do you want to ignore this kindness?"

The samurais were immediately speechless.

This matter was even clearer to the samurais who had witnessed Fang Li and his group's bravery on the scene.

"But, they are not human and could be a threat to us..."

In the end, the samurais brought the issue back to the fundamental source.

In short, it was a matter of safety.

Fear of death.

Fear of monsters.

Fear of the future.

Fear of the present.

All kinds of fears had already eroded the samurais' ambitions.

To put it in Nishikata's words...

"They're all cowards..." Nishikata muttered.

Fortunately, the samurais did not hear this.

Otherwise, their reaction would have been even more intense.

Fang Li, seeing that the atmosphere had somewhat eased due to Shizukanae Yonagawa's appearance, immediately seized the opportunity.

"You're just worried that Unmei and Nishikata will attack you, right?" Fang Li said, "If so, then I will watch over them."

"Will you watch over them?" Shizukanae Yonagawa and her group immediately turned their gaze to Fang Li, their expressions somewhat stunned.

"On Koutetsusei, Unmei and Nishikata will only stay in this last car and will not enter the front cars." Fang Li looked at Shizukanae Yonagawa and said, "I will also stay here and be responsible for guarding them. If they plan to enter the front cars, I will stop them. This way, you can rest assured, right?"

Kuji Raiki and Arakawa Kibito immediately frowned.

The samurais were clearly unwilling to trust Fang Li and continued to advise Shizukanae Yonagawa.

However, Shizukanae Yonagawa agreed to Fang Li's proposal.

"I understand, you can use this car." Shizukanae Yonagawa said to Fang Li, "I hope you will keep your promise."

Thus, Fang Li and his group successfully stayed on Koutetsusei.

And so, Koutetsusei slowly left Kaneki Station and escaped smoothly.

At this moment, the system's prompt sounded in Fang Li's mind again.

"Serial number 11273 has completed all main quests and can choose to return to the main god space at any time, or choose to stay in the副本 world."

"Choosing to return will result in task evaluation and reward collection."

"Choosing to stay, you can remain in the副本 world for three more days."

Without much hesitation, Fang Li chose to stay.
