106: We don't recognize it! Don't try to be relatives!

“…”

After Professor Li Yulin translated and published this historical evidence, which was genuinely recorded in historical annals, Wu Tian's live stream, broadcast worldwide, instantly fell into a profound silence!

It took a full ten seconds before one or two bullet comments finally broke the stillness!

Then, an overwhelming flood of bullet comments came crashing in!

“?”

“?”

“?”

First, countless question marks appeared densely on the live stream screen. Once these question marks finally disappeared,

The Fans from Dragon Country once again opened the eyes of people worldwide!

“Hiss…”

“This is a bit ridiculous, isn’t it? The people of Japan are so short, and we people of Dragon Country are so tall. How could the ancestors of short people be tall people?”

“Honestly, I don't accept it!”

“Absurd!”

“Did Xu Fu deliberately pick only short people back then?”

“Hiss…”

“I have another theory: perhaps when Xu Fu took the boys and girls to the Eastern Ocean, the place was too poor and backward, which caused the first generation to be short.”

“And then this gene was passed down?”

“All the way to now!”

“If you don't believe me, look at that dog Matsui Ichiro!”

“…”

“There's such a thing?”

“No way?”

“Really? Are there any biology experts who can explain this?”

“Oh!”

“Dragon Country is truly a miraculous nation!”

“Five thousand years of cultural heritage are not just for show!”

“Yes, yes, who would have thought that the people of Dragon Country are actually the ancestors of the people of Japan?”

“It’s truly absurd!”

Looking at the bullet comments from the Fans of Dragon Country,

People from all over the world were instantly shocked and began to furiously discuss behind these bullet comments.

“…”

Just as everyone was discussing why the people of Japan were so short, a Ph.D. in biological genetics from Dragon Country chimed in!

“Ahem…”

“Theoretically speaking, that friend's conjecture is possible!”

“It is very likely that after Xu Fu led people there, they lacked food and clothing, and during the reproduction process, they combined with some local genes that had become inferior due to poor nutrition. Over time, they became what they are today.”

“Hehe…”

As the bullet comment from the Ph.D. in biological genetics just floated by,

A Ph.D. in biological genetics from Japan immediately retorted.

“That's pure nonsense!”

“Genes rarely change with environmental shifts. Your assertion is an unscientific speculation!”

“It’s baseless!”

“Don’t talk nonsense!”

“We Japanese have no relation to you Dragon Country people!”

“…”

“Oh?”

The Ph.D. in biological genetics from Dragon Country was also not one to suffer a loss. Seeing that this short Japanese man dared to contradict him, he immediately became displeased.

“I’m just stating my conjecture; why are you getting so agitated?”

“Why are you in such a hurry?”

“Firstly, I said that theory is just my conjecture.”

“And I never said that we Dragon Country people are your Japanese ancestors.”

“Why are you explaining things so wildly?”

“…”

Watching the Ph.D. in biological genetics from Dragon Country furiously arguing in the bullet comments,

The youth of Dragon Country silently gave a thumbs-up in front of their screens!

Masters reside among the common folk!

In truth, there are no so-called Zaunites in this world, or rather, as long as one is dedicated!

Everyone can be a Zaunite!

…While the bullet comments were in a frenzy of discussion, this world-shaking news, of course, quickly reached the highest office in Japan, where Matsui Ichiro was located.

“Whew…”

Matsui Ichiro, who had just woken up, took a deep breath.

He opened his eyes and looked at the busy figures around him, then asked the little secretary beside him.

“How long has it been?”

“Twenty…”

“Twenty minutes.”

The little secretary answered timidly.

“…”

Suddenly!

Matsui Ichiro was startled.

“What's wrong with you? What's that expression?”

“Something happened?”

Matsui Ichiro turned his head and saw the little secretary with an expression of wanting to speak but hesitating, and a hint of fear.

He immediately frowned and asked.

“Yes… yes, something happened.”

The little secretary nodded.

“Hmm.”

Matsui Ichiro's expression didn't change much when he heard something had happened. He slowly pulled a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and calmly asked the little secretary beside him.

“Tell me.”

“What is it?!”

“Hehe…”

Matsui Ichiro smiled calmly.

“I'm immune to everything now. Even if you told me the Yamata no Orochi was gone, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest!”

“Whew!”

Saying that,

Matsui Ichiro even calmly blew a smoke ring.

Completely serene!

“That…”

“Wu Tian, the Host from Dragon Country, discovered a study in the Peach Blossom Garden. A book inside recorded information that the people of Dragon Country are our Japanese ancestors. The evidence… the evidence is conclusive!”

“Clatter…”

As soon as the little secretary finished speaking,

Matsui Ichiro's hand trembled, and the cigarette immediately fell to the ground.

He shakily bent down to pick up the cigarette.

Matsui Ichiro, with a pale face, confirmed with the secretary.

“Conclusive evidence?”

“Yes!”

The little secretary nodded.

“Everyone watching the live stream worldwide knows about it!”

“…”

Matsui Ichiro's cold sweat dripped, his whole body trembled, and he shakily brought the cigarette back to his mouth.

“Alright, then. Gather everyone for a meeting!”

“Hmm!”

“Huh?!”

“Your Excellency Matsui Ichiro, you…”

The little secretary had just agreed and was about to leave when he suddenly saw Matsui Ichiro's action and was startled!

He quickly spoke up to remind him!

“What’s wrong? Is there anything…”

“Ah!”

“Holy crap!”

Matsui Ichiro's pig-like scream came from the office!

“I… I…”

“How did I hold the cigarette upside down?!”

“Damn it!”

…Japan's meeting was convened quite quickly. Just as Matsui Ichiro had finished treating the burn on his mouth, all the high-ranking officials were already seated in Japan's supreme office command center.

Looking at Matsui Ichiro walking in, covering his mouth,

An older high-ranking official frowned.

“Your Excellency Matsui Ichiro, how do you serve as this representative?”

“Such a major incident has occurred.”

“You even dispatched assassins to try and assassinate that Host in front of the entire world?”

“…”

“The outrageous part is!”

A man beside him, with a gloomy face, spread his hands.

“Not only did your assassination fail.”

“You also turned our people into free labor, working for that Host!”

“And even through the efforts of our Japanese people, the people of Dragon Country obtained historical truths that are detrimental to us!”

“Your Excellency Matsui Ichiro!”

“Don’t you have an explanation?”

“…”

Frowning,

Matsui Ichiro said, covering his mouth.

“None of that matters. Even without those people, Dragon Country would have exposed that history book sooner or later!”

“The immediate priority now…”

“Is how to minimize the impact?”

“How do we explain this to the Americans?”

“…”

Matsui Ichiro's words prompted deep thought among the attendees. They had always leaned towards the United States, and their American 'daddy' had taken good care of them.

Providing them with military and technological power.

Sometimes, even offering political aid!

If this matter wasn't handled well, it could very likely affect their cooperation with their American 'daddy'!

“Ahem…”

Just as everyone was in a state of anxiety,

An experienced Japanese executive cleared his throat and spoke.

“Since no one is speaking, I’ll say a few words!”

“I actually think…”

“This might be a good thing!”

“…”

Everyone was startled!

Then they all frowned and cast questioning looks at the man.

“It's like this!”

The elder who spoke frowned and clearly analyzed the situation for everyone.

“The United States, Romantic Country, the British Empire, Bear Country, and even our Japan have all lost most of their national destiny in the struggle against the Dragon Country's Dragon Vein!”

“And where did all this national destiny go?”

This person knocked on the table!

“Clang! Clang!”

“It went to Dragon Country!”

The elder continued, enunciating clearly.

“I saw the parade tonight, and no matter if it's Dragon Country people returning home or our Japanese people wanting to go to Dragon Country.”

“I’ve analyzed all their reasons!”

“The national destiny of Dragon Country, starting tonight…”

“Has undergone earth-shattering changes!”

“May I ask…”

The elder slowly stood up from his seat, pressing his hands on the table and leaning forward, his eyes gleaming with greedy and cunning light!

“If we acknowledge our ancestors and successfully align ourselves with Dragon Country!”

“Then not only can we receive the same level of assistance given by the United States, but we can also share in a large amount of national destiny!”

“Hehe…”

The elder chuckled.

“What do you say, isn't this a good thing?”

“Why not do it?”

…Everyone was startled, and then, including Matsui Ichiro, everyone fell silent!

The atmosphere in the meeting room gradually became tense!

After a long while!

Someone suddenly sighed in the meeting room, then nodded helplessly.

Looking at everyone, he spoke first!

“I agree!”

Then… “I…”

“I agree too!”

Then came the second one!

“I agree!”

“I agree too!”

“I have no objections!”

“Approved!”

“…”

In just one minute, everyone in the room except Matsui Ichiro had cast a vote in favor!

“Hmm?”

“Your Excellency Matsui Ichiro, what is your opinion?”

The elder turned his head and stared at Matsui Ichiro, asking.

“Hehe…”

Matsui Ichiro let out a tragic laugh, looked at the people around him, and said coldly.

“With so many of you voting, the outcome is already decided.”

“Why bother asking for my opinion?”

“…”

“Good!”

A shadow flickered in the elder's eyes, then he nodded and spoke loudly to everyone.

“Actually, while everyone was thinking just now, I already came up with a countermeasure!”

“Hehe…”

The elder said confidently.

“The people of Dragon Country are the easiest to deceive and value their reputation the most.”

“They pride themselves on their broad-mindedness and will surely not hit a smiling face!”

“I’ve spent some time in Dragon Country; I know this!”

“Therefore!”

“As long as we acknowledge our ancestors in front of the whole world and remove Matsui Ichiro from his representative position, this matter…”

“Can be accomplished!”

“…”

Taking in everyone's expressions, the elder smiled and asked.

“How about it?”

“Is my method feasible?”

“…”

The crowd looked at each other, and after a moment of silence, they all smiled and applauded the elder!

“Support!”

“Feasible!”

“No problem!”

“Your Excellency Matsui Ichiro is meticulous!”

“Hehe, good!”

The elder named Matsui Ichiro immediately nodded with satisfaction and eagerly headed to the TV station in Edo City, carefully refining his speech all the way.

Waiting to solemnly declare to the world!

The people of Dragon Country… are their ancestors!

…Thirty minutes later, as the whole world focused on the Japan issue.

While waiting for Japan to make a statement!

Japan quickly announced the resignation of former representative Matsui Ichiro and his replacement by Matsui Ichiro.

After that… a statement video went viral across the world's internet!

【Japan: Our ancestors are the people of Dragon Country!】

In an instant!

Twitter, Zhihu, Baidu, Sohu… almost all websites in the world published this video!

That night!

The world was shaken, and multiple parties conspired!

And just as this matter was brewing, the highest representative of Dragon Country, through layers of searching, sent a video link to Wu Tian's phone!

…“Holy crap?!”

Wu Tian, who was carrying a sack and sitting in the Peach Blossom Garden, leaning against the stout Zhang Meng while eating melon, was startled.

“Big Brother sent me a video link?”

“Hiss…”

“Let me see?”

Zhang Meng immediately leaned over.

“Huh?”

Zhang Meng reached out and pointed to a note after the link on Wu Tian's phone.

“Big Brother said…”

“He wants you to play this video in front of the whole world!”

“…”

Wu Tian was startled, then nodded without hesitation.

“Then play it!”

Saying that, Wu Tian, in front of all the viewers worldwide, opened the link!

…“Hello everyone!”

In the video, the representative of Dragon Country stood solemnly behind the podium, his eyes fixed straight ahead.

“Just now, we saw Japan's statement.”

“They said…”

“They want to acknowledge their ancestors and return to their roots?”

“…”

At this point, the representative of Dragon Country revealed an undisguised expression of disgust and disdain!

He questioned loudly.

“Which ancestors do you want to acknowledge, and to which roots do you wish to return?”

“Hmm?”

“Two thousand years ago, you were traitors who fled Great Qin, and two thousand years later, you are also descendants of traitors!”

“Even if it were a grand ethnic integration, it wouldn't be your turn!”

“Why are you randomly claiming ancestors?”

“I, on behalf of all the people of Dragon Country, responsibly tell you…”

The representative of Dragon Country said with firm conviction!

“Don’t you dare try to claim kinship!”

“Our ancestors do not acknowledge you!”

He glared fiercely at the camera.

The representative of Dragon Country adjusted his tie and said faintly.

“That's all!”

Scratch… The video ended!

“…”

After a long silence, the audience worldwide exploded!

The Fans of Dragon Country all flooded the public screen with the enduring six characters: 'Long Live Our Great Dragon Country!'

Meanwhile, the people of Japan… felt as miserable as if they had eaten excrement!

Especially Matsui Ichiro!

It is said that this person… died of anger on the very night Dragon Country issued its statement!

Matsui Ichiro… returned to his position as the supreme representative!

…“Haha…”

Wu Tian watched the Fans uniting to spam the screen with bullet comments, and his mood instantly brightened. He burst into laughter.

“Excellent!”

“Our Dragon Country is truly strong!”

“Indeed!”

Zhang Meng also smiled slightly.

“However…”

“This expedition was truly perilous. If it weren't for you, we would probably have died halfway!”

“Hmm!”

Wu Tian nodded.

“Indeed!”

“Hmph…”

“Can't you be a little modest?”

Zhang Meng rolled her eyes.

“Huh?”

“Aren't I just speaking the truth?”

“…”

“Boss, I learned a new idiom from your Dragon Country these past two days!”

“What is it?”

“Hehe…”

“A role model for our generation!”
