Chapter 191 Lu Mingfei Comes to the Paradise Pavilion (Two-in-One, Please Subscribe!!!)
"Guest, are you joking?"
Frightened by this sudden sentence, the driver almost rushed the car out of the cliff at the corner, "What could be in the deep mountains? Are you talking about trees? Yes, there are many trees here..."
"So you haven't heard of it. I heard from you that you have been running a rental business in Osaka for a long time. I thought you would have heard of it at least." The young guest shook his head gently.
"Is this the time for telling ghost stories? That's right. This kind of environment is suitable for telling ghost stories. People who are in a bad mood can divert their attention by hearing scary stories, right...such as a ghost house hidden in the mountains? Whoever you find can sign a contract between gods and ghosts?" The driver followed the young guest's words while secretly glancing at the rearview mirror and studying the guest's expression.
"Almost, there is such a place. Some people say it is a paradise. As long as you pay enough, they can fulfill any wish you have." The young guest nodded.
"What a good story...hehe, hehe..." the driver smiled dryly, but when he saw the serious look on the passenger in the back seat through the rearview mirror, his wizened smile gradually solidified on his face.
Hell, this is not at all a middle-aged boy who has trouble with his family. He comes to the mountains in the middle of the rainstorm to find some kind of "nirvana." This person is definitely a psychopath...or a twisted pervert! The driver even wanted to slam on the brakes and turn around and go home now!
However, at this time, the guest's sultry voice came: "It should be the path in front, turn in and walk straight to get there."
The driver in the front seat had his Adam's apple twitching, and he swallowed a large mouthful of saliva together with fear. We have already driven here, and we can check out not far away. We are only one step away from success.
After running such a long mountain road, plus the allowance for night travel and bad weather factors, he can earn at least 12,000 yen after completing this trip, and he can rest for three full days. But if he turns around, not only will he not get a penny, but he may even be complained by customers to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and face closure and fines.
The car body suddenly shuddered, and the tires splashed mud on the mountain road. That was when the driver stepped on the brakes.
"Do you want to drop me off here?" the guest asked, "That's fine, we're not far from our destination anyway."
"No... I'll turn on the GPS to record the location. It's very dark and the road I took just now is a bit complicated. I'm afraid I won't be able to find my way back later." The driver's voice was a little hesitant.
"It's okay. If you're scared, you can drop me off here and I'll pay for your fare." The young guest said calmly.
"Afraid?" the driver said in a high voice, his voice a little broken, "Stop looking down on people! I have been driving for thirteen years, where have I not been? Even if I passed by the scene of a gang fight, those vicious gangsters were covered in blood. If you wave, I will never refuse a ride, let alone put a customer down in the middle of the journey, don’t tarnish my career, you bastard!”
He felt that he was being underestimated, so he stepped on the accelerator, and the car plunged into the path ahead like a beast out of its cage.
At this time, the GPS happened to be activated, and the dark screen flashed with white light, and their location appeared on the palm-sized screen. The driver glanced at it and his heart almost stopped.
This place is already more than 40 kilometers away from the central city of Osaka, deep in the mountains. The path they are walking on is straight and long, as if it leads to the underworld. At the far end of the path, you can vaguely see crimson and golden lights intertwined, like a mirage in the depths of the underworld, where life is full of excitement, and it seems that a kingdom of bliss stands there.
Turning on the GPS and seeing the location, the driver remembered that there was indeed a strange story in this deep mountain. Some people said that a mysterious gangster had built a Paradise House in the deep mountains. It was extremely prosperous and luxurious. It was like driving deep in the mountains of Osaka. It is a charming flower from the other side, and anyone who gets close to it will be attracted by its fragrance. Once you step there, you will never find your way back to the world.
"Customers...customers!" The driver tried his best to keep his teeth from chattering, "A big brother who was running business in the past told me that the front seems to be the territory of gangsters. What the big brother told me was very evil. They are inside They raise beautiful monsters that can suck people's blood! Many people who go in never come back."
"So you've heard of it, that's right, I finally found it!" The young guest looked extremely excited.
"ah?"
"It's not as exaggerated as the rumors, but the front is indeed the territory of gangsters." The young guest took out two large U.S. bills from his arms and slapped them into the driver's hand, opened the door and got out of the car.
"Wait a minute, the guest... hasn't changed yet." The driver tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart.
"No need to look for it, thank you for your trouble." The guest waved his hand, "There should be patrols around here. Don't linger here. It's very troublesome to get involved with the underworld. But if you have nothing to do tonight, come up with us. Wait for me at the foot of that mountain. I will come out in about two or three hours. This will be a highlight in your career...I will pay you a hundred times the reward at that time, if you dare."
The young guest walked towards the splendid mountain house in the distance without looking back. He walked across the delicate bridge built over the mountain stream in front of the house, and a plump girl in a gorgeous short skirt walked out of the thick fog. He was welcomed in, just like the lustful ghost at Naihe Bridge. His figure disappeared in the mist of rain and mist, as if he was swallowed by the paradise of underworld.
…
A knock on the door shook Caesar from his sleep.
He opened his heavy eyelids and glanced at the huge pendulum hanging on the opposite wall. The time was around four in the morning. At this time, no one should disturb the young master of the Gattuso family's sleep for any reason. But thinking that the person knocking on the door might be a pretty girl, Caesar replied patiently: "Please come back, no room service is needed."
But the knocking on the door still kept coming, even getting harder and harder. He was hitting the expensive European-style door panel with his fist as if he was not afraid of the pain. It was as if Caesar would use brute force to blast the door open and break in. Look at this His posture was as if he was seeking revenge. The next moment he opened the door, he would shoot him with a submachine gun, or he would take out a sharp dagger and stab him hard at the silk quilt covering Caesar's body.
Even if it's a vendetta, you shouldn't bother me at this point! It completely messed up his biological clock... Caesar thought about getting out of bed, his face slightly cold. If the guy who opens the door later is really holding a submachine gun, Caesar will definitely grab it, shoot the bullets out of the magazine, and feed them one by one to the guy's mouth so that he can swallow them alive!
"Is it you?" The door opened, and Caesar frowned as he looked at the burly figure in the door.
"The master of the house is waiting for you in the living room." Yaksha said.
Caesar followed Yaksha to the living room, and sure enough, Yuan Zhisheng was sitting on the sofa, with an already lit soft seven-star sandwiched between his index and middle fingers. Not only him, Crow and Ying were standing behind him, while Chu Zihang, wearing blue pajamas, sat on the armchair opposite them.
"What's the matter so late?" Caesar poured himself a glass of champagne. He glanced at the sofa occupied by Yuan Zhisheng, and saw that the only seat nearby was next to Chu Zihang, so he sat directly on it. On the coffee table, Xiang Yuanzhisheng asked, "Don't tell me that you woke us up at this time to go to Tokyo Mountain to watch the sunrise. You should know that such a stupid item will not appear on the sightseeing list I prepared."
Yuan Zhisheng didn't care about who was stupid among these crazy people. He blew out a mouthful of smoke that was not strong and asked expressionlessly: "I remember there is another person among you, where is the others?"
Caesar subconsciously turned his head to look at Chu Zihang, who shook his head slightly. This shake of the head had two meanings. The first meant that Lu Mingfei was indeed not there, and the second meant that he did not know about it either.
"I should ask you this question. Isn't this the territory of your Japanese branch?" Caesar looked back at Yuan Zhisheng with a calm expression as if he didn't care about Lu Mingfei being lost.
"He is a member of your team, and you are the team leader." Yuan Zhisheng remained expressionless.
"You are right, Lu Mingfei is one of my people." Caesar took a sip of the light golden champagne slowly, "So, my people were lost on your territory. Should you be responsible for this?"
"Are all the people in your headquarters such scoundrels?" Yuan Zhisheng frowned.
"Then it depends on whom? We usually prescribe the right medicine, treat people who deserve courtesy, and treat rogue people rogue." Caesar rogue said, "By the way, I am very good at dealing with rogues, because I have been a child since I was a child. I always deal with my bastard dad, he is the biggest scoundrel in the world."
"You mean, I personally drove to the airport to pick you up, arranged for you to have the presidential suite at the most luxurious Peninsula Hotel in Tokyo, and sent people to carefully decorate each room, but I turned out to be a scoundrel?" Yuan Zhisheng found that he still didn't know. He is good at dealing with psychopaths, and he is almost laughed out of anger.
"It was precisely because of your pick-up that we were robbed and killed by the Kanagawa Prefecture police, right? In the end, it seems that we relied on our people to break out of the encirclement, right?" Caesar glanced at Chu Zihang, "And you said you worked for us By carefully decorating each room, does this also mean that you have deliberately investigated us in private?"
"As the director of the Executive Bureau of the Japanese branch, what's the problem with checking the information of the headquarters commissioner before cooperating on a mission?" Yuan Zhisheng asked, "You treat the mission as a house, but the Japanese branch has always been so cautious. .”
"There is no problem in investigating our information, but if what you mean by caution means installing fifty-two cameras in the corridors, installing listening devices in the rooms, and sending more people on the top floor and in the lobby to monitor us, then There is a problem." Chu Zihang suddenly spoke and looked at Yabuki Sakura, "There is also this lady, she should be a ninja, she lingered at my window three times an hour before I fell asleep."
Crow and Yaksha asked Ying for confirmation and found that the latter looked calm and silent. They looked at Chu Zihang again with a more wary look in their eyes. They knew about Sakura's skills. She was definitely the best among female ninjas. She could shuttle between any high-rise buildings without being noticed by passers-by. Yasha once joked that she was the female version of Peter Parker in Tokyo.
But Sakura, who is comparable to the real-life Spider-Man, was actually seen through? No wonder the young master said that this young man named Chu Zihang was not simple.
"Female Ninja?" Caesar looked at Sakura again, "No wonder her legs are so long and her body proportions are so perfect, which is rare among European women."
"Boss, how about we issue a wanted order for Lu Mingfei and take these two back to our home, and Crow Crow and I will watch in person." Yasha asked Xiang Yuan Zhisheng.
Yuan Zhisheng waved his hand. He was silent for a while before speaking: "I just came from an important family meeting. What I want to tell you is that there is no malicious intention in spying on you. The situation in the Japanese branch is far worse than yours." It's complicated to imagine. You are just sent by the headquarters to complete the task. There is no need to get involved in things you don't want to do. Everyone's life is precious and should not be thrown away in a meaningless place."
"But no matter what the purpose is, there is indeed something wrong with my approach when it comes to monitoring you. I apologize for this and ask for your understanding." Yuan Zhisheng suddenly stood up and faced Caesar and Chu Zihang Bow ninety degrees.
"Yuanjun, please stand up, I know you don't mean any harm." Chu Zihang said.
Caesar stepped forward, helped Yuan Zhisheng up, and patted his shoulders and back hard, "You know your mistakes and you can correct them, that's 'yo, yo, yo,'. In fact, I have always hated this about you Japanese, you always do it. Nodding and bowing, in my country, except for the moment when a man’s head is chopped off, he will only bow his head for the girl he loves.”
While talking about Caesar, he took a sip of wine, his ice blue eyes showed "This is all from experience, learn from it quickly" and the same awesomeness as a big brother as always.
Yuan Zhisheng took a deep breath, "I have something to tell you when I come here this time. Mr. Masamune Nagasaki, the head of the Sheqiba family, has asked me to invite you to have a discussion with him. The time will be ten o'clock tomorrow morning. A special car will be dispatched to the hotel. downstairs."
After Yuan Zhisheng made the announcement, he left with Crow, Yasha and Sakura resolutely, and dismissed the security personnel patrolling the floors. All surveillance cameras installed on the top floor of the hotel were also turned off.
After the people from the Japanese branch left, Caesar was still holding the unfinished champagne. He and Chu Zihang were the only two people in the huge living room. He hesitated for a moment and then said: "You really don't know where Lu Mingfei went. Already?"
Chu Zihang shook his head, "He has many secrets. Some will tell me, some won't, and sometimes I can't understand him." In the darkness, his eyes flickered slightly.
"How are you and Xia Mi?" Caesar seemed to be trying his best to find a topic that he could chat with Chu Zihang without quarreling.
"Hmm... not bad." Chu Zihang hesitated, "You and Nono?"
"It's... not bad." Caesar was unusually dumb.
After the two were silent for a long time, Chu Zihang was the first to speak: "It's very late. We have a trip tomorrow. Let's go to bed early." He turned and returned to his room.
"Good night," Caesar whispered, raising his glass into the darkness and draining the last sip of champagne in the glass.
…
The deep mountains outside Osaka are the territory of the fierce ghosts.
That night, the Paradise Hall welcomed a most "special" guest.
