Crossover Anime: How a Shameless Person Lives

Chapter 71 Mercury Gradually Recognizes the True Nature of the King of Salt

The next day, at a hospital in Hokkaido.

Coco, who came to Japan from Great Britain, met Ms. Wang from the Bronze Tree once again.

He was still bandaged and short in stature.

Upon meeting, Coco immediately got straight to the point, wanting to see the person who provided the salt.

Yoshimura Eto would certainly not admit to this.

"Is there such a clause in our agreement? I don't recall it."

Yoshimura Ete looked at the white-haired woman with a puzzled expression.

Want to see Mercury?

If she really succeeds, what does the Bronze Tree have to do with this?

They directly eliminated middlemen who profited from the price difference.

She didn't believe Mercury would give up his interests just because they were from the same orphanage.

That guy would definitely switch to this arms dealer without hesitation.

So you're not denying the existence of people who provide this salt?

Coco's eyes lit up; she didn't deny it.

"Do you think such a person could possibly exist, Ms. Coco?" Yoshimura Ete asked in return.

She would never admit to it.

The whole family of Qing Tong Shu is waiting to eat; how could they possibly hand over their profits?

"You don't understand what this means." Coco placed her hands on the table, looking intently at the King of the Bronze Tree.

"Do you know how many people in the West have been attacked by vampires? Do you know how rare the holy water of the Vatican and the weapons that have been enchanted are? Do you know how rare weapons made of holy silver are?"

Once this batch of salt... no, it should be called holy salt now, once these things enter the market, what a storm it will cause?

"At that point, it probably won't be us coming to find you. Those lunatics won't be as easy to talk to as I am."

Upon hearing this, Yoshimura Eto remained silent, his face hidden beneath bandages, revealing no emotion.

"So, you're not here to discuss cooperation, but to exert pressure?"

Coco chuckled, straightened up, and traced her fingertips across the table. "Pressure? No, I'm here to talk business, but this time, I'll set the stakes."

Yoshimura Aite rested her fingertips on her chin, then suddenly chuckled softly, "Ms. Coco, are you telling me a fairy tale?"

She knew about vampires, even though they were just a legend to ordinary people.

But the Vatican's madmen?

This made her wonder.

She believed that there must be a special force in the West to deal with vampires, but they would never bypass the Japanese government and directly target Aogiri Tree.

This will cause even bigger disputes!

I won't put my chips in someone else's hands!

Hearing Ms. Wang's naive idea, Coco laughed. "When the profits are big enough, there are no boundaries. Besides, Japan is powerful, but is the government really that powerful?"

Her brother is in charge of arms smuggling here and knows a lot about the situation in Japan.

After he was injured, while entrusting her with the management of the business, he also told her about the dangers of Japan.

But her brother had no fear of the authorities whatsoever.

She paused, then pushed a thin document in front of Yoshimura Aite. "This is my sincerity: a complete missile launch system, and you can borrow our satellite."

That way, even if this matter explodes, it will give Aogiri Tree some breathing room.

Yoshimura Ete's face instantly darkened, and she grabbed the document and glanced at it.

Depend on!

Was this guy doing it on purpose?

Even if we gave them these things, they wouldn't dare use them!

They would be labeled as international terrorists!

But... not being able to use it doesn't mean she doesn't want to have it.

"Wait here," Yoshimura Eto said, and then left the office.

"Checkmate."

Watching "Ms. Wang" leave in a hurry, Coco's smile deepened.

Indeed, a person with lofty ideals will never miss an opportunity to enhance their own strength.

Not to mention that without a strong enough deterrent, the Bronze Tree would be wiped out once this batch of salt was released!

This can be seen in the case of the Red Tongue Association.

The condition of the bronze tree is more than ten times more severe than that of the red tongue joint tissue.

After a while, Yoshimura Aite returned.

"Wait here for a few days, that guy's busy right now."

"Alright, then I'll take care of you for the next few days. Let me see your true face, Ms. Wang," Coco said with a smile.

"Tsk, just call me Takatsuki Sen."

Since we've decided to deepen our cooperation, let's be open and make it public!

……

the other side.

Mercury and the Snow Woman arrived in a small village in another city in the dead of winter.

After hanging up the phone, Mercury gave off an expression like an old man using a cell phone on the subway.

Coco Hekmedya?

How come there are all kinds of people in this world?

Could Robert and Caiwei still be there?

It's scary.

Mercury even suspected that he had eaten poisonous mushrooms.

He was so frightened that he quickly took a sip of wine to calm his nerves.

"Cool!"

After taking a sip of wine, Mercury instantly felt refreshed.

It's definitely the dizzy feeling that makes me feel comfortable.

"We've arrived." Yuki-onna looked at the familiar little village, and her smile became much warmer.

"Doge Village?"

"That's right." Snow Woman's deep winter eyes revealed a sense of longing.

She met Reiko in the neighboring town.

It feels like it happened just yesterday.

Lingzi's smile was clearly etched in her mind.

"This place looks like it's about to fall into disrepair," Mercury said.

The village is not large; it is surrounded by mountains and has farmland.

The residents are mostly elderly, with very few middle-aged people.

Some elderly people looked on incredulously when they saw the two.

"It's really going to be abandoned soon. I guess once these old folks leave, no one will live in this village anymore." Yuki-onna's expression was somewhat sad.

This place also holds many fond memories for him and Reiko.

There was no time for sentimentality, and the two quickly arrived at the village chief's house.

……

The village chief, an old man with a hunched back, hurriedly brewed two cups of black tea for the two of them upon seeing them.

His gaze swept over Mercury, then turned to the Snow Woman, Deep Winter. "And who is this?"

"My... friend, Mercury." Yuki-onna, in the deep winter, pulled over a wooden chair and sat down, swallowing the two words she wanted to say.

The village chief nodded kindly. Since it was brought back in the dead of winter, it must be a monster.

"Oh." Mercury raised his wine bottle in a gesture, startling the village chief who hurriedly waved his hand.

He's old and can't take this kind of hardship.

"By the way, what exactly is this urban legend?" Mercury asked.

He only heard that Yuki-onna was coming back in the dead of winter to deal with an urban legend, and she seemed very confident, so he didn't ask any further questions.

Cough cough, it's mainly because he hasn't had alcohol for two days, which has made him irritable.

I was thinking of getting back quickly and having a good drink.

"Sigh~" The village chief shook his head and said, "I don't really know either. Last time, the neighbor's grandson brought a few friends back for a visit, and then he was like he was possessed, saying that he saw a very tall and big woman wearing a straw hat."

Then he suddenly disappeared the next day. We searched several nearby villages but couldn't find him.

Then his friends also saw very tall and large women one after another, and then they all disappeared the next day.

This town has an unusually large number of monsters, so it's not surprising that anything can appear.

However, this is the first time a murder has occurred.

The police didn't find any clues either.

"However, she doesn't seem to have the ability to attack the adults in the village," the village chief continued.

The "ghosts" that specifically target children are usually not very strong.

He had witnessed Lingzi "exorcising demons" when he was young, and considered himself to have a rich understanding of these demons and monsters.

The first meeting between Shen Dong and Lingzi was actually caused unintentionally by herself.

It didn't become a celebrated story, but rather something to boast about.

"Very tall and large women, apart from Rokuro-no-kami and Taka-no-kami, are eight feet tall. Dealing with them is easy," Yuki-onna Fuyuki said.

Don't underestimate her; she's a snow woman after all.

Mercury, who was standing nearby, frowned as he listened to the village chief's description and muttered, "Why does this sound so familiar..."
