Chapter 829 The Beginning of the War (8)
Inuyama Heita and Suzuki got off school together this afternoon and walked in the same direction.
Suzuki looked back at the two Yakuza bodyguards strutting behind him, and sighed: "Is it really okay to be so conspicuous? Were they stopped by the patrolmen for questioning before?"
As Yakuza, the two of them seemed to have no awareness of hiding their identities.
Inuyama Heita could only say awkwardly: "There is no way, now is a special period..."
Fortunately, these two eldest brothers only took him to and from school, and would not come to talk to him. Otherwise, Inuyama Heita felt that he might really live up to the title of "the illegitimate son of the Yakuza boss", which would bring serious consequences to his life. He just wants to be a transparent person in school.
"We're here." Heita Inuyama led Suzuki to a bar on the street. The bar was not open at this time, and there was a wooden sign with "CLOSED" hanging on the door. However, Heita Inuyama led Suzuki directly and pushed the door open and walked in. .
"Blues Bar..." Suzuki said to himself: "Is this here? The place where the spiritual masters gather..."
She didn't expect that the party would be here. She had been here before.
"Hey~ Heitaro!" King Kong was closest to the door and saw Heita Inuyama at first sight.
In the seat next to Kongo, Iku Terao turned around and saw Heita Inuyama and Suzuki. He complained: "Hey Heitaro, you can come alone, why are you bringing your daughter..."
His head was held down, and Masato Shichijo stood up from his seat and greeted warmly: "Miss Suzuki is here too? Come and sit here, Heitaro. The combat meeting hasn't started yet."
In addition to them, many people have gathered in the bar, such as Joe Hoshiba, Miha, Anna, Ryumitsu Kido, Jisuke Ashiya, and even the Suzuna siblings and Tachibana Mio. Some people who are familiar with Inuyama Heita are basically there. Everyone was present, and they were gathering together in twos and threes to chat.
Seeing Suzuki and Queen Heita Inuyama, several people who had participated in the WTV incident greeted them one after another, and Queen Heita Inuyama and Suzuki kept returning the greetings.
"Inuyama-chan, have you brought Ms. Suzuki too~" Maria and Mike were mixing drinks behind the bar counter. Maria asked with a smile: "Ms. Suzuki, do you want a non-alcoholic cocktail? Maria Big sister’s special version~”
Only Iku Terao looked confused. He asked Masato Shichijo in a low voice: "Hey, Masato, who is this female high school student? Why do you all know each other?"
Iku Terao only vaguely remembered that Suzuki seemed to be a club classmate who traveled to Osaka last time with Heita Inuyama, but he didn't expect to see her here.
Masato Shichijo said seriously: "Don't underestimate Miss Suzuki. Although she is only a high school student like Hirataro, she can play a very important role and is an employee of Xiaoyi Office! Also, he is just a classmate of Hirataro, not You must not make mistakes in your relationship as it will cause trouble for others.”
"Why do you feel that something is wrong with you?" Iku Terao looked at him sideways and joked: "She seems to care about her? You can't be..."
"Uh...she saved my life." Masato Shichijo said hesitantly: "At that time, I was just an ordinary person who had never seen the world. Do you understand?"
"Oh~ I see." Iku Terao reluctantly accepted this reason.
After several more spirit exterminators from the alliance arrived, Ashiya Jisuke looked at the time. He tapped the wine glass with a spoon and let everyone look at it: "It's almost time. The meeting is ready to start. There are several important things to do today. Announcement, everyone sit over here.”
Everyone found nearby seats and sat down.
A spiritual exterminator asked curiously: "It seems like this is the first time we have discussed the alliance in real life, right? Why don't we have a meeting at the Underworld House? It always feels weird."
His companion replied: "Don't you know? The Huangquan House was attacked by the enemy a few days ago. It is currently being repaired and is temporarily unavailable, so we can only hold meetings in reality."
Iku Terao looked around: "Strange, where is Teacher Qian? Why isn't he here?"
"Ahem, I'm here." Qian Xiaoyi's voice came. Iku Terao turned around and saw a mobile phone placed on the table. On the screen was Qian Xiaoyi's big face, and Inuyama Heita was adjusting the angle of the camera.
"For some reasons, it is not convenient for me to go to the party in person now." Qian Xiaoyi said, "So I can only attend in this way."
Iku Terao scratched his head: "What a pity. I still want to ask Teacher Qian for advice on the "Book of Curses"."
"Everyone, be quiet." Ashiya Jisuke stood in front of the bar and said to everyone: "As the first real-life gathering of the Kanto Soul Exterminator Alliance, we would first like to thank the owner of this place, Ms. Maria, for providing us with the venue for free. Thank you for the free drink.”
Maria covered her mouth and said with a smile: "I will come to visit my business more often in the future~"
"Okay, okay..."
"Next time I will definitely..."
Maria and Mike left, leaving the venue to them.
Ashiya Jisuke nodded, and then continued: "Some people may have guessed what I am going to say next. A few days ago, the old Huangquan House was temporarily unusable due to the enemy's attack. Moreover, not only Huangquan House House, even the old man's ability was seriously damaged in that battle... In other words, the old man no longer has the energy and strength to lead the alliance. Therefore, one of the contents of this meeting is to select candidates for the alliance. A new leader emerges.”
Except for those who knew the inside story, everyone looked surprised.
You said that the Great Onmyoji Ashiya Yoshisuke was a good leader. What would you do instead? Do other people have this ability? No, okay?
Rather than why Ashiya Kisuke abdicated, everyone was more concerned about who could be the next leader of the alliance.
"Is it Mr. Xingchang? All the spiritual weapons in the alliance are provided by Xingchang. His reputation should be the highest and his strength is also very strong."
"Master Liuliyuan is not bad. If it were him, no one would object. Wait, why didn't anyone see him this time?"
"Master Liuliyuan seems to be busy practicing these days, so he didn't come over."
"Why do I think he is a psychic detective? He seems to be very powerful."
"Are you kidding? That's a foreigner."
"Let's vote."
"I think I can, I vote for myself."
"Go ahead and dream! If you get elected, the whole alliance will be finished!"
After a buzzing discussion, Ashiya Jisuke said: "The next leader of the alliance must be a decent person with experience, strength, and reputation, who will not lead everyone astray. Now is a time of war. We We have already started a war with the Hope Cult, so we will not use democratic voting this time. The next leader of the alliance will be directly designated by me.”
There is no objection to Ashiya Kisuke's words. His reputation is high enough that no one will stand up to speak against him unless his designated successor is particularly outrageous.
"It seems that everyone has no objection." Ashiya Jisuke clapped his hands: "Then, I announced that the next leader of the alliance will be..."
"——Oni Fuji Ryugu!"
