Chapter 71: Ryosuke

"Madam, Sister Ren."

"Lord Mizukage has other important matters to attend to, so he entrusted me to appear in his image."

Mizunuki Ryosuke did not elaborate; after all, the matter was of great importance, and it was better for the two women to know less.

For Mizunuki Ryosuke's explanation, Mizunuki Ren did not hesitate and chose to believe him directly.

But seeing Mizunuki Ryosuke's posture, she still asked with some doubt.

"Ryosuke, then what is this..."

For Ren's inquiry, Mizunuki Ryosuke had already thought of an explanation in his heart.

"Madam, Sister Ren."

"The matter is of great importance and I cannot disclose it, but the situation is critical."

"To ensure your safety, please come with me."

Mizunuki Ryosuke said with a serious expression.

That's right, he rushed over specifically for Mizunuki Ren's safety.

The change about to happen within Kirigakure was of great importance; even though the Mizukage's winning percentage had greatly increased after Ryosuke's planning,

no one could guarantee that Mizunuki Taki had a 100% chance of winning.

It is better to be safe than sorry.

Once Mizunuki Taki failed in the struggle, the fate of the personnel related to Mizunuki Taki, especially his wife and daughter, would naturally go without saying.

Fortunately, Mizunuki Ryosuke had already thought of this possibility many years ago and left a retreat for himself and Ren to use.

And Mizunuki Aunt Liuhua could barely be considered to have benefited from Mizunuki Ren's light.

"Ryosuke, has the matter really become this serious?"

As the Mizukage's wife, Mizunuki Aunt Liuhua had naturally seen big storms.

At this moment, the beautiful woman's eyes, which carried a hint of charm, were filled with solemnity, staring at Ryosuke without giving an inch.

"Madam, the current situation can only be said to be..."

"Worse than that."

Mizunuki Ryosuke tried his best to answer with a serious expression, trying to increase his persuasiveness.

"Very well!"

Mizunuki Aunt Liuhua was also definitely not an ordinary person. Seeing that Ryosuke's eyes did not retreat at all, she seemed to know the severity of the situation and nodded directly in agreement.

Afterward, when the sky darkened slightly, Mizunuki Ryosuke took Aunt Liuhua and Ren and sneaked into his home silently.

That's right, the backup plan Mizunuki Ryosuke left for himself was in his own home!

When Ren and Aunt Liuhua followed Mizunuki Ryosuke to this unremarkable duplex Japanese-style courtyard, Ren's small face showed a somewhat surprised expression.

"Ryosuke, do you have something you need to pack?"

Ren tilted her small head and asked in confusion.

"You will know in a moment."

Ryosuke shook his head gently and did not answer Mizunuki Ren's question directly.

Seeing Ryosuke's mysterious look, Ren became even more confused.

She usually took care of this house, and Ren knew every corner of the house clearly.

She really couldn't understand what else in this house was worth Ryosuke's nostalgia.

Could it be...

Some unspeakable object under Mizunuki Ryosuke's bed?

Thinking of this, Mizunuki Ren's pretty face turned red.

At this moment, Mizunuki Ryosuke still didn't know that his secret collection, which he thought was seamless, had already been flipped through by Ren several times.

Heh, pathetic man.

When she saw Mizunuki Ryosuke leading them to the basement of the house instead of the bedroom, Mizunuki Ren breathed a sigh of relief in secret, knowing that she had thought wrong.

Immediately, Mizunuki Ren's fair pretty face turned red again.

Seeing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke was a bit confused, not understanding what Ren's blushing was for.

But now the important matter was urgent, and he had no heart to think about these things.

As the three stepped into the basement, the "mysterious" veil of Ryosuke's basement was revealed.

Unlike the messy characteristics of ordinary basements, Ryosuke's basement was very tidy.

Of course, this also depended on Ren's usual "good housekeeping."

Afterward, Mizunuki Ryosuke walked to the center of the basement, quickly formed seals with both hands, and finally bit his finger, outlining a complex formation pattern on the ground with fresh blood.

As Mizunuki Ryosuke slapped the ground with both hands, the wall in the basement moved away slowly, revealing a deep passage behind it.

Mizunuki Ryosuke took the lead and entered, lighting up the path of the underground passage. ===== CHAPTER 73 =====
