"too slow!"
As expected, upon pushing open the office door, Yin Kong heard Suzuki Sonoko's dissatisfied complaints.
This young lady from the Suzuki Group got up very early today and excitedly ran to the Rabbit House as soon as she stepped out the door.
Who would have thought that Yin Kong had actually predicted her prediction?
Before Sonoko arrived, he had already taken Paimon and Shinobu out.
Not to mention Zhongli, Suzuki Sonoko didn't even see a deer. Only Kolai stayed in the inner room, concentrating on preparing and modifying the experimental field for planting, and obviously had no time to play.
If it weren't for Aoyama Nanami keeping her company and chatting to pass the time, this young lady would be bored to death.
Yin Kong also reminded him:
“Ms. Sonoko, if you have a request, you can just tell Aoyama directly. There’s no need to keep waiting in the office.”
"Can that be the same?"
Sonoko Suzuki shook her head vigorously.
Are you kidding me? Did she come here to post a commission?
That's so I can see Zhongli SAMA, okay?
However, when Sonoko Suzuki scanned the crowd expectantly, she didn't find Zhongli and said disappointedly:
"Huh, didn't Zhongli-sama come back with you?"
"It seems Miss Sonoko has a slight misunderstanding about our Rabbit House," Yin Kong chuckled, explaining, "Mr. Zhongli is merely an agent of our Rabbit House. Without a commission or mission, there's naturally no need for him to stay in the office all the time. Otherwise, this small room couldn't possibly accommodate so many agents..."
Upon hearing this, Sonoko naturally fumed and said:
"What? You didn't tell me something so important earlier? Then I've been waiting for hours for nothing?"
Paimon said matter-of-factly:
"Because you didn't ask. If we had to say all of this, there would be so much for us to say."
“Okay.” Sonoko Suzuki was momentarily speechless, but quickly regained her composure and said, “However, I have a new request now, about the statue that Zhongli-sama had yesterday. I’ve already shown it to everyone in the family—”
Aoyama Nanami was taken aback, and a hint of worry immediately rose in his eyes:
Could it be that Ms. Sonoko is actually here today to confront me and demand a refund?
After all, even if this heiress of the Suzuki Group is hopelessly infatuated with Mr. Zhongli, her parents and elders are the helmsmen of the Suzuki Group, and are absolutely shrewd individuals.
If they were to realize that their precious daughter had been deceived, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Everyone praised my eye for quality, especially my uncle, who lauded Zhongli SAMA's work. Not only that, he also wanted Zhongli SAMA to commission a landscape stone carving for him. As long as the quality is no less than that Shenyu Valley carving, the price is negotiable..."
Okay, I shouldn't have presumed to speculate about the mindset of these rich people.
After hearing Sonoko's words, Aoyama Nanami covered his forehead with a helpless expression, realizing that he had been worrying unnecessarily.
Chapter 125 Please enter the urn
Is this the world of rich people?
An ordinary girl named Aoyama Nanami was once again deeply moved.
She felt that spending 1 billion yen to buy a stone sculpture was undoubtedly an act of extreme extravagance.
But judging from the way Yuanzi looked, her family not only didn't think it was expensive, but actually wanted to buy another bottle.
It seems that I not only underestimated the Suzuki family's wealth, but also the strength of Mr. Zhongli.
Sonoko Suzuki clearly didn't notice the change in Nanami Aoyama's expression, and was looking at Yin Kong with anticipation:
In this way, I will finally be able to see my dear Zhongli SAMA, right?
Unfortunately, to the utter surprise of the confident Sonoko, Yin Kong shook his head and refused:
"I'm very sorry, Ms. Sonoko, we're afraid we can't take on this request."
Not only did Aoyama Nanami's eyes widen, but Paimon also looked puzzled:
"Why, Yin Kong? This is so much money!"
Yin Kong pinched Paimon's little cheek and explained:
"No, it's not about the price."
As he spoke, he looked at the garden and said:
“Miss Sonoko may have misunderstood. Zhongli is not actually a sculptor. The ‘Sinking Jade Valley’ he built yesterday was just something he did on a whim.”
Hearing him say that, Paimon suddenly realized:
"That's right, Zhongli is definitely not the kind of person who will be swayed by price."
If it weren't for the fact that Yin Kong happened to need a sum of money, let alone a mere 1 billion yen, even if it were ten or a hundred times that amount, he would never have given the Rock King Emperor a second glance.
Of course, as I said before, as long as Yin Kong is willing to ask, Zhong Li will not refuse such a small matter.
But obviously, since Yin Kong already knew that Zhong Li was too lazy to take on such work, how could he possibly force him to do these things?
Not a sculptor?
Sonoko Suzuki was stunned:
"So what exactly is Zhongli SAMA's role as an agent?"
This question stumped Yin Kong and Paimeng.
After a few seconds of silence, Paimon hesitated before saying:
"A bunch of social outcasts who eat and take advantage of others while expecting them to pay the bill? No, wait, it seems like the entire Rabbit House is being supported by Zhongli. Could it be that we're the ones who've become social outcasts this time...?"
What kind of nonsense comments are these?
Sonoko Suzuki looked at Paimon speechlessly, completely baffled as to why she called Zhongli a social outcast.
However, even if Zhongli-sama were a social outcast, she would still be willing—
Just as Sonoko was about to speak, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and seven or eight tall, burly men swaggered in.
"Who are you?!"
Sato and Takagi reacted the fastest, immediately drawing their pistols and shielding Sonoko and Aoyama Nanami, who were completely caught off guard.
Unfortunately, the people who came were much fiercer than they had imagined.
"I advise you all not to meddle in other people's business."
Although the leader was blond and blue-eyed, he spoke fluent Japanese.
He glanced at the police pistols in Sato and Takagi's hands, scoffed disdainfully, and then ignored them, fixing his gaze on Kanoin Heizo:
"We simply wanted to invite Mr. Kanoin to our headquarters as a guest; it has nothing to do with anyone else."
The reason this uninvited guest was so fearless was simple: the burly men standing behind him were each holding a revolver.
If Sato dares to fire, those seven or eight revolvers could instantly turn him and Takagi into sieves.
How is this going?
Why are these people looking for Mr. Heizo?
Looking at these burly men and the black guns they were pointing at him, Aoyama Nanami felt his mind go blank and he stood there frozen in place.
She never imagined that what was once a harmonious and joyful rabbit hutch would turn into a terrifying scene of gun-to-gun confrontation, something she had only ever seen in movies.
Moreover, he was one of those being targeted.
Of course, let alone Aoyama Nanami, even the well-traveled Suzuki Sonoko was clearly encountering such a scene for the first time and was completely speechless for a moment.
However, the little deer, being the target, naturally showed no panic whatsoever, exclaiming:
"As expected of the Italian mafia, their style is indeed different from that here."
Clearly, Inspector Megure underestimated the differences between the two countries.
In Japan, cases involving firearms are considered extremely rare, but in Italy, gunfights between gangs are commonplace.
Moreover, the style is also so simple and crude.
They went straight to the entrance of the cunning rabbit's house and waited for Kanoin Heizo to appear, then led their men to "invite" him back.
Even someone as naive as Arataki Ichito probably wouldn't think that these burly men were simply inviting Kanoin Heizo back for tea and a chat.
What if I don't want to go with you?
Upon hearing Kanoin Heizo's question, the leading man confidently replied:
“Then our brothers’ men will have something to say.”
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost frozen, Sato quietly asked:
"Yin Kong, are you and Mr. Pingzang confident in dealing with so many people?"
If it were just Shinoin Heizo alone, she felt that given the speed Shinoin had shown when sparring with Inuyasha, it shouldn't be difficult for him to escape.
The problem now is that there are also three ordinary people present: Paimon, Sonoko Suzuki, and Nanami Aoyama.
If a gunfight were to break out, the consequences would be absolutely unimaginable.
"Don't worry, it's never us who's fallen into the trap, it's them." Yin Kong chuckled, indicating to Sato and Takagi not to be nervous. "Judging by the time, Wan Ye should have already taken care of things."
Just as Sato Miwako was wondering what was going on, the office door was pushed open again, and then Kaedehara Manyo, carrying the [Dawn Divine Sword], walked in with a relaxed expression.
Looking at the seven or eight burly men glaring at him, the Inazuma ronin samurai politely asked:
"Gentlemen, since you're here, why don't you sit down and have a cup of tea?"
Where did this guy come from?
The blond man at the head of the group frowned, especially when he saw that Wan Ye not only didn't turn and run away, but instead walked slowly towards them with a smile. He immediately gave his henchman a look:
Let's teach him a lesson!
Amidst Aoyama Nanami's exclamation, the henchman aimed directly at Kaedehara Manyo's shoulder and pulled the trigger—
However, it seemed that Kaedehara Manyo had already anticipated this outcome.
The instant his underling fired, the [Dawn Divine Sword] in his hand flashed an elegant silver-white light before him, slicing the bullet toward him with a "clang," and he sighed:
"It seems you must talk to him."
Chapter 126 Sato: Do you think I'm stupid?
"It seems you must be going to talk to him."
Upon hearing Maple Leaf's sigh, all the burly men, including the blond man at the head, were stunned.
What did they just see?
I must be seeing things. Otherwise, how could I see this man in front of me seemingly cutting through the bullets of a revolver with the sword in his hand?
They didn't have time to think any further as they watched Kaedehara Manyo walk towards them step by step.
"Don't come over here!"
The blond man at the head of the group immediately pointed his gun at Wan Ye and instinctively pulled the trigger.
His actions seemed to send a signal, prompting his henchmen surrounding him to fire wildly at Wan Ye.
boom!boom!boom……
Suddenly, a series of intense gunshots, like firecrackers, rang out throughout the office.
Ding! Ding! Ding...
However, under the incredulous gazes of the Italian gangsters, Wan Ye simply twirled the [Dawn Divine Sword] in his hand, transforming it into crescent-shaped arcs of silver-white light in front of him, deflecting or repelling all the bullets aimed at him.
The frenzied gunfire only gradually subsided several seconds later.
The burly men, still mechanically pulling the triggers, were horrified to discover that their revolvers were empty.
However, Maple Leaf still stood unharmed, casually flicking the [Dawn Divine Sword] in his hand as if the dense bullets were nothing more than a gentle breeze.
Faced with their fearful gazes, Wan Ye merely smiled slightly and took a step forward. The Italian gang, who had been so aggressive not long ago, completely collapsed.
"Devil!"
