Tokyo Knights: The Odd Jobs X Files

So Hayato Ijuin came up with a brilliant idea—he tied a bell to Ryo Saeba's crotch, then had him hide in a wardrobe and observe the female interviewees through the gap in the wardrobe. If the interviewee was a great beauty, Ryo Saeba would react and the bell would ring.

Well, only someone like Hayato Ijuin, who has a deep friendship with Ryo Saeba and a profound understanding of his character, could come up with such a brilliant idea.

However, despite Ijuin Hayato having interviewed so many candidates, Ryo Saeba, who was usually quick to react, was surprisingly well-behaved this time, with not a single sound coming from the closet.

Hayato Ijuin asked Ryo Saeba, "Didn't you remove the bell earlier?"

He suspected that this guy just didn't want his coffee shop business to improve.

Ryo Saeba wagged his finger at Hayato Ijuin: "Eyes can be deceived, and ears can be misled, but only it won't lie to you. If you don't feel anything, you don't feel anything. Why would I play tricks on you with something like this!"

At the same time, Ryo Saeba sneered inwardly. Although I am called "Shinjuku Stallion", it doesn't mean that I get aroused every time I see a woman. You expect me to react without showing anything? What are you thinking!

Hayato Ijuin drew his Desert Eagle and aimed it at Ryo Saeba's groin: "You better not be kidding me."

"Hey, hey, hey, you can't just point at things like that, what if it goes off accidentally?"

Ya Yu Liao quickly covered his groin.

Just then, a voice came from outside: "Excuse me, are you hiring waiters here?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Please come in!"

Hayato Ijuin quickly slammed the wardrobe door shut, making Ryo Saeba's nose turn bright red.

You sea monster!

Ya Yu Liao touched his nose and made up his mind that even if the next interviewee was an absolute beauty, he would make sure his brother couldn't get up!

Rachel entered the reception room and was startled to see Hayato Ijuin, who looked like a mountain of flesh.

Is this guy the owner of the coffee shop? Or is he some kind of gangster thug?

However, Rachel had worked in Queens, New York, and even earned the nickname "Queens' Goddess." Even if the other side was really a gangster, Rachel was not afraid at all.

She asked Hayato Ijuin in broken Japanese, "Can we speak in English?"

"no problem."

Hayato Ijuin replied, and Rachel breathed a sigh of relief, her chest heaving. Her leather jacket immediately gave way, and the zipper burst open again.

"I am the store manager, Ijuin..."

Just as Hayato Ijuin was about to begin the interview, he suddenly heard a rapid bell ringing. He couldn't help but laugh out loud: "You're hired!"

Rachel paused for a moment. "No, I haven't said anything yet!"

Inside the wardrobe, Ya Yu Liao clutched his head in pain.

Why are you being so honest, bro?! But what's done is done...

Yao Yu Liao pushed open the wardrobe door and strode out, ignoring the strange sight below. He quickly walked up to Rachel, adopted a gentlemanly demeanor, and said, "Beautiful lady, may I have a go?"

"Come on, my foot!"

Rachel punched Yaoyu Liao right in the face, sending him flying so hard he was stuck to the wall and couldn't be pried off.

"Wow……"

Although Hayato Ijuin is blind, he can sense the power of Rachel's punch and how badly Ryo Saeba was beaten just by hearing the sound and feeling the tremor.

However, Hayato Ijuin wasn't worried about Ryo Saeba; instead, he thought to himself, "Serves him right."

With Yao Yu Liao's physique, he won't die from this level of attack. At most, he'll have to stay in the hospital for a few days, and the doctor will have to pay for his medical expenses.

After punching the person, Rachel realized she was there for a job interview and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, it was just an instinctive reaction..."

"It's okay, I understand, this person deserves it."

Hayato Ijuin nodded; even though he couldn't see, it wasn't hard for him to imagine what had just happened.

If a man pounces on a woman while he is in a "convex" position, which woman wouldn't have a strong reaction?

Rachel looked at Yao Yu Liao, whose genitals hadn't subsided even after being beaten and pressed against the wall, and asked, "What's wrong with this guy?"

She was startled when it suddenly jumped out of the closet in the same state.

Hayato Ijuin, without batting an eye, calmly said, "A pervert sneaked in just now and I caught him. I didn't have time to deal with him, so I locked him in the closet. I didn't expect him to escape. I'm really sorry for scaring you."

"Isn't there a police station right across the street? How could a pervert come here?"

Rachel had no doubt about Yao Yu Liao's identity as a pervert, but she wondered how this pervert could be so bold as to cause trouble near the Metropolitan Police Department.

"Sigh, Japan is a country that's good in every other way, but it has too many perverts. There's nothing we can do about it!"

Hayato Ijuin sighed, then said, "Miss, you must also be careful of perverts, but I think with your strength, you probably don't care too much."

"I'm fine with it, but I'm worried about my sister..."

Rachel was a little worried. She was strong-willed and could fight back even against perverts (and she really meant it), but her sister Alma was sexy and gentle, and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to handle those perverts.

Sigh, it seems that Japan isn't a very suitable place to live!

It's rare to find a beauty recognized by Ryo Saeba willing to work as a waitress, so how could Hayato Ijuin let Rachel go?

He quickly said, "It's alright. You and your sister can stay at the coffee shop. There are two rooms on the second floor that you two can stay in. This place is near the Metropolitan Police Department, so it's safer than other places. Plus, I can protect you."

With her work and accommodation issues resolved, Rachel exclaimed happily, "Thank you so much, Manager! Also, Manager, I came for the interview with my sister. Could you let my sister have the interview too? She speaks Japanese, which will make it easier for her to communicate with customers."

"No interview is needed; your sister has been accepted."

Ijuin Hayato waved his hand.

The "Beauty Detector" is temporarily out of service, and he can't get much out of interviews by himself. Rachel is a beauty who can make Ya Yu Liao react, and her sister must be just as good, so he might as well just hire her to save himself the trouble.

And so, Rachel and Alma became new waitresses at Cat's Eye Cafe, officially beginning their life together in Tokyo.

Chapter 713 Largest VS Smallest

Feeling utterly humiliated, Li Xin sought solace from Lai Sheng Lei, who, with her strong maternal instincts, offered him comfort. By the time Li Xin left, it was already the next morning, and his spirits had lifted.

After taking the elevator to the first floor, the elevator doors opened, and the first thing Li Xin saw was a stack of floating cardboard boxes.

Oh, it wasn't floating. There was a pair of small feet wearing black leather boots below. It's just that the person was too short, so Li Xin didn't realize at first that someone was carrying the stack of boxes.

As Li Xin stepped out of the elevator, he was about to ask who was abusing their child by making them carry so many things when he turned around and saw that the person carrying so many cardboard boxes was none other than Helena's maid, Mary Rose.

Mary Rose, who was about to enter the elevator, also noticed Li Xin and stopped in her tracks. The two stared at each other, and just as they were staring at each other, the elevator doors closed and started to ascend. Obviously, someone upstairs had pressed the elevator button.

Mary Rose was initially anxious, but seeing that the situation was beyond repair, she had no choice but to give up. She then asked Li Xin, "Mr. Li Xin, what are you doing here?"

"Uh... my friend lives here."

Li Xin replied, then asked Mary Rose, "Mary, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in Paris with Helena?"

"Yes, I'm Miss Helena's maid, of course I have to stay with her!"

Mary Rose replied matter-of-factly, "So when Miss Helena comes to Tokyo, I'm coming too!"

"Helena's in Tokyo?"

Li Xin was stunned for a moment.

"Correct."

Mary Rose said, "Miss Helena was afraid that Miss 'Heart' would be lonely, so she came to Tokyo to keep her company. Moreover, the master was also worried that Donovan's remnants might do something desperate and harm Miss Helena, so he agreed to let Miss Helena come to Tokyo."

Well, that reason couldn't be more reasonable.

Moreover, Li Xin also remembered that Lai Sheng Lei's new home and Helena's apartment were in the same tower, only one floor apart. Even Lai Sheng Lei felt that this type of new apartment would become a trend in the future and had great potential for appreciation.

"And Helena now..."

"Ah-Xin, what are you doing here?"

Helena walked over pulling a suitcase and looked extremely surprised to see Li Xin.

She had originally planned to wait until she had packed her luggage before going to the office to find Li Xin, but she didn't expect to see Li Xin as soon as she arrived at the tower. Could this be a preordained fate?

"Uh, my friend lives here..."

Li Xin said dryly.

"Ah-Shin's friend lives here too? That means he's my neighbor? Should I go visit him? Ah-Shin, if you don't mind, let me go with you to meet your friend!"

Helena said repeatedly.

Helena thought that Li Xin was standing in front of the elevator, waiting for it, and was about to visit her friend. Only Mary Rose knew that Li Xin was just about to leave the tower.

"This one……"

Li Xin was at a loss for words when the elevator doors opened, and Lai Sheng Lei, dressed in a business suit, stepped out. Seeing Li Xin standing outside, she couldn't help but say, "Ah Xin, you haven't left yet... huh?"

Lai Sheng Lei glanced at Helena and Mary Rose, then looked at Li Xin.

Li Xin immediately introduced to Lai Shenglei: "This is Helena, my friend, and this is Mary Rose, Helena's playmate."

"Helena..."

Of course, Rui Kisei knew Helena. Back in Paris, Helena's house was one of the places she frequented, so how could she forget her so quickly?

Of course, the reason why Lai Sheng Lei was so impressed with Helena was because Li Xin mentioned that Helena was the one who received him when he went to Paris a few days ago.

Lai Sheng Lei smiled and extended his hand to Helena, saying, "So you're the young lady from 'DOATEC,' Miss Helena. It's a pleasure to meet you. I heard from Ashin that you took good care of him when he was in Paris. I thank you on Ashin's behalf!"

Who are you to Ashin? Why should you be the one to thank Ashin on his behalf for taking care of him?

Helena had many questions in her mind, but her long-standing upbringing prevented her from speaking in such a rude manner. She could only smile and shake hands with Rei: "Hello, my name is Helena, may I ask who you are...?"

“My name is Lai Shenglei, Ashin’s friend.”

Lai Sheng Lei paused in holding Helena's hand, then withdrew it, stopping short of abrupt change, everything seemed very natural.

When Helena faced the tears of the afterlife, she suddenly felt that although the woman in front of her seemed gentle and kind, she was also like an impenetrable fortress, like a high mountain that could only be looked up to but never crossed.

Why do I feel this way...?

Helena was sweating internally.

Mary Rose, however, was thinking that when Lai Shengrui stepped out of the elevator, she said, "Ah-Shin, you're still here?" This meant that Li Xin had indeed just finished "visiting" a friend and was about to leave. So, when did Li Xin visit Lai Shengrui? Was it in the early hours of the morning, or... last night?

Mary Rose couldn't help but look at Li Xin, only to see him looking down at his shoes as if flowers were growing on them.

O man!

Lai Sheng Rui smiled and looked at Helena: "Miss Helena, judging from your luggage, do you live here?"

"Yes."

Helena replied.

"Let me guess, you're the owner of apartment 0903, right?"

Tears of the next life ask.

Helena was somewhat surprised: "Yes, how did you know? Did Ashin tell you?"

"No, it's because I didn't buy unit 0903 in this tower."

"Lai Sheng Lei" replied, and Li Xin, who was looking at the shoes, almost popped his eyes out.

No, Xiaolei, you bought the whole tower?

Li Xin had only heard from Lai Sheng Lei that these new-style apartments had great potential for appreciation, but he didn't know that Lai Sheng Lei had bought the entire tower (except for Helena's apartment)!

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Kisugi Rui also said that these tower apartments have great potential for appreciation. Other people might just be saying this casually, but Kisugi Rui... since you know they will appreciate in value in the future, why not buy some and wait for them to appreciate!

So, Rui Kisara bought the entire newly built tower except for Helena's unit, which she couldn't buy because she couldn't contact the owner.

If it were anyone else, hearing Rui Kisei's words would only make them think that Rui Kisei was in Versailles, but Helena heard a different meaning in Rui Kisei's words, as if she was saying, "You have money, but I'm not lacking either."

However, Helena didn't mind. She smiled and said to Laisheng Lei, "From now on, we'll be neighbors."

Lai Sheng Rui was slightly taken aback: "Miss Helena, are you planning to stay in Tokyo for an extended period?"

If it's just a short stay, there's no need to say that.

"Yes, I hope Miss Laisheng will give me more guidance."

Helena bowed slightly, displaying the elegance of a French lady.

"Me too, nice to meet you."

Even with tears in her eyes, she maintained a smile and a composed demeanor.

The atmosphere between the two gradually became strange. Li Xin was sweating slightly, feeling as if he was facing something even more troublesome than "calamity and disaster".
