Chapter 391 Celebration Banquet (2)
“Cheers!”
After Masato Shichijo made a toast of “Thank you for your efforts” that no one listened to, everyone couldn’t wait to start eating. Two old chefs stood aside, one responsible for filleting fish and the other making sushi, trying hard to catch up with their eating progress.
I heard that these two have been "sushi masters" for decades. Anyway, Qian Xiaoyi didn't taste anything special, it was just that the ingredients were very delicious.
After having two drinks, everyone let go of their restraints and forgot about high-end sushi restaurants, and started chatting while eating and drinking.
"Is this the commission completed?" King Kong put down his beer glass and touched the back of his head and said, "It's completely unrealistic. At that time, I thought the ending would be more passionate and explosive..."
Qian Xiaoyi ate The crab legs of the king crab said: "Then what do you want? Do you want us to shout Why do you believe in words like "guarding" and then surge up in strength to kill that guy?"
King Kong said with a smile: "That feels good~"
"I think so too." Heita Inuyama agreed with a bulging mouth.
Suzuna complained: "King Kong, your thinking is already at the same level as that of a high school student... Please read less comics, you are so old."
King Kong pointed at himself with wide eyes: "Me? Older? I'm only 24 years old!"
"Eh?!"
Everyone looked at King Kong with a beard, Apparently not expecting it, even Inuyama Heita and Suzuki, who had not participated in the chat, stopped eating and looked at King Kong in surprise.
"Hey! Why are you so surprised?" King Kong was a little confused.
Suzuna couldn't help but said: "It doesn't look like it at all! Can't you shave off your beard? Now I feel like an uncle in his forties or fifties!"
King Kong quickly shook his head and said: "You can't shave, it's better for business this way. I didn't have a beard or hair before. When I first arrived in Tokyo, no one wanted to believe that I was an exorcist. They all thought I was a thug from some gang." It was Mr. Kito who suggested that I change my image. As a result, after I grew my beard, I had no shortage of clients..."
"Image is really important~" Qian Xiaoyi has a deep understanding He nodded. He was like this when he first arrived in Tokyo. It wasn't until he destroyed the Lucky Mutual Aid Association that he had a customer base. So Qian Xiaoyi sighed: "That guy Gui Teng did a good job in this regard, no matter what Anyone who sees him will think that this must be an experienced old spirit remover, and he is willing to entrust him to remove spirits... although his strength is ridiculous."
Suzuna asked: "Speaking of this. A good time I haven’t seen him yet, why did Master Gui Teng go?”
King Kong ate a piece of sushi and said with a bulging mouth: “After the competition with Mr. Qian, he said He felt that his spiritual practice was not enough, so he went back to practice in his hometown temple. He contacted me some time ago and said he would return to Tokyo in a while... Oh, this is delicious! "
Star Field! Give way: "Also Although he is a veteran, that guy always regards expanding his network as the most important thing. He only does some simple commissions and finds someone to help him solve problems when he encounters them. But now it seems that Mr. Qian and Zhitian are the most important people. That battle woke him up. After all, in our line of work, if we encounter unexpected dangers, our greatest protection is our own strength. No matter how many connections we have, life is not as important.”
"By the way, speaking of commissions..." Qian Xiaoyi suddenly remembered something and said, "Didn't you take away the crown of the civet cat when we were leaving? How was the research?" < br>
Shichijo Masato was a little curious: "Did you bring something from there?"
"Yes, and it's on my body now." Hoshiba Rang said with a slight smile.
Others looked at Xingchangrang, he didn’t look like he was wearing a crown or anything like that? As a result, Xingchang put his hand into his arms and took out an emerald green leaf specimen. This leaf seemed to have been processed in some way, and it had a transparent protective layer on the surface, making it still look vibrant.
"Wait, isn't this a leaf..." Suzuna suddenly woke up and asked, "Is this the crown?"
Shichijo Masato touched his chin and looked at the leaf, and said, "It belongs to the tanuki. The crown...isn’t that just a leaf?”
In Japanese legends, when a tanuki is changing, he will put leaves on his head to cast spells, so the moment he took it out, other things appeared. People will understand.
"That's right." It has become a specimen. Despite its ordinary appearance now, it would be a very magical disguise prop if it could be used~ But the only drawback is..."
The leaves passed on to everyone. The circle finally fell into Qian Xiaoyi's hands, and he looked at it carefully.
King Kong scratched his head and said: "No matter how you look at it, it is no different from an ordinary leaf."
Suzuna complained: "So the disadvantage is that this is just an ordinary leaf?"
"No. "Qian Xiaoyi played with the leaves and said: "The disadvantages are It’s because this thing hides itself so well. To use it, you must have extremely high talent, such as..."
In an instant, everyone here saw Qian Xiaoyi’s pupils change. The beast's pupils turned into a vertical line, but soon returned to their original shape.
Suzuna's hair stood on end and she was startled. She covered her chest and said, "Just for a moment, I thought the tanuki was back again."
"That guy's dangerous aura was originally disguised by him." Qian Xiaoyi said with a smile: "Haven't everyone seen the real body? It's just such a small one."
Qian Xiaoyi returned the leaf. He asked Star Field and said: "Although this thing is good, not everyone can use it. I'm afraid your store will have another prop that cannot be sold."
Star Field laugh He said: "Mr. Qian, what are you talking about? You can use it~"
He collected the leaves. When he promised to help with the commission, the commission fee was secondary, and the main purpose was After studying monsters, now that he has obtained this thing, his goal has been achieved. It doesn't matter whether he sells it or not. It is also good as a collection. Watching the number of precious props at home continue to increase is his hobby.
Suzuna asked: "By the way...why didn't Ms. Tachibana come? Takuya used to like her songs very much. He listened to them every day, like an otaku."
Takuya's movements were stagnant. He took the action camera to take pictures of the old master Katsuki, pretending not to hear.
Shichijo Masato said: "Miss Tachibana? Because of Miss Usami's matter, she has flown to the United States to accompany her, and it will take a few days to come back."
"That's it. It's really involved." Anna said: "What's going on at WTV? And the old raccoon cat."
Everyone looked at Masato Shichijo, and everyone was still very concerned about the follow-up to this matter. Interested, no, I should say, everyone is interested in this matter. After all, this incident involves various popular entertainers, idols, stars, congressmen, and officials. It can be said to be the hottest incident in Japan recently. Everyone. Everyone is discussing this matter.
As the initiator, Masato Shichijo must have some inside story that others don’t know so as to satisfy their desire for gossip.
