When Ryuzaki Shin heard what Junko said, his eyebrows raised involuntarily.
He looked at Junko's face, which pretended to be weak and pitiful, and wondered what was going on in her mind.
He subconsciously glanced at Junko's inner thoughts.
[Hehehe, just call Ah Zhen over to my house, tell him I'm still short of breath, and have him give me one more CPR. And then... then we'll get so passionate, it'll be a done deal, a single man and a single woman! By then, Ah Zhen will be mine! Let's see how he can get away!]
After reading it, Ryuzaki Shin's face was instantly filled with black lines.
The rice has been cooked, is that how you use it...
I have a good impression of this woman named Junko.
Although she sometimes has a strange way of thinking and acts in a careless manner, she is straightforward and has no bad intentions.
But why do I feel like I'm at a disadvantage when I go there just to make things happen?
What is going on?
Besides, he had to make a big deal tomorrow and didn't have the time to play this kind of house game with her.
"Um, Junko, isn't that Murayama kid coming over soon? I have to bring him over and keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't mess things up. How about... we do it another day?"
After hearing what Ryuzaki Shin said, the expression on Junko's face visibly fell.
She lowered her head and unconsciously drew circles with her toes, and her voice became a little muffled.
"That day?"
When Ryuzaki Shin saw Junko looking lost like a large dog abandoned by its owner, he felt inexplicably guilty.
"Junko, what kind of jewelry do you like? I'll give you a set in a few days."
The simple-minded Junko's face, which was gloomy a second ago, suddenly turned sunny after hearing that Ryuzaki was going to give her a gift.
She suddenly raised her head, looked at Ryuzaki Shin with sparkling eyes, and a bright smile appeared on her face again.
"As long as it's from you, I like it!"
Ryuzaki Shin smiled and reached out to ruffle her hair.
"It's settled then. I'll bring it to you in a few days."
Junko nodded heavily, and the slight sense of loss in her heart had been completely washed away by the upcoming gift.
"Then it's settled! No regrets! I'm going to the store now to see how they're preparing!"
After saying that, Junko jumped out of the restaurant excitedly and ran towards the dessert shop next door.
Ryuzaki Shin looked at her energetic back and shook his head helplessly.
What a child who never grows up.
…
Two hours later.
The intersection of Sanno Street.
Murayama Yoshiki was wearing the school uniform of Oniya High School, with his hands in his pockets, looking at Ryuzaki Shin with an unwilling expression.
"Master, why did you ask me to come here? This is the territory of the Mountain King. It's not good for me to come here."
Ryuzaki Shin was leaning against the wall nearby and glanced at him when he heard that.
"What do you mean by Sanno's territory? Look at this street, all the shops are mine. So this is my territory now."
"See that dessert shop called 'Pure Love' up ahead? Go in. I'll take that girl to talk to you. Remember, don't run away. Go through the process honestly. Do you understand?"
Bet on it?
I do know Murayama Yoshiki.
That girl who was a little confused and a little stubborn had secretly looked at me several times on the street before, and I caught her red-handed every time.
After a few interactions, the two became familiar with each other.
What could she want from me?
However, Murayama Yoshiki didn't want to think too much about it.
After all, this was his master's request, so he just did it.
Then, Murayama Yoshiki nodded and walked into the pink dessert shop.
When Yoshiki Murayama pushed open the glass door of "Pure Love", the store instantly became quiet.
When Oshiage, Kazushiba, and Hikaru saw that Murayama Yoshiki had really arrived, they all showed nervous expressions on their faces.
Especially Oshie, she clutched the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, her heart was beating fast and her cheeks were burning.
Murayama Yoshiki looked at this scene and felt a little puzzled.
He scratched his head and asked.
"Um... Oshisuke, what do you want to talk to me about?"
The atmosphere in the store was a little awkward, and the air seemed to be frozen.
Shiba and Rika tried desperately to wink at Oshiage, but Oshiage seemed to be frozen, just staring at Murayama Yoshiki nervously, unable to say a word.
At this moment, Zhi hurriedly brought out an exquisite cake box from the kitchen in the back and placed it on the table in front of Murayama Yoshiki.
"Um...Murayama-kun! It's like this! We've just launched some new products in our store, and we'd like...we'd like you to try them and give us some advice!"
Yasui finally reacted and nodded quickly, opening the cake box.
It was a very delicate heart-shaped strawberry mousse cake.
The surface of the cake is decorated with fresh strawberries and a few pieces of gold foil, which looks very appetizing.
And in the center of the cake, three beautiful English letters were written with red jam - "I LOVE YOU".
Oshiage then pushed the cake in front of Murayama Yoshiki and said with courage.
"This... is a new thing I made recently. I'd like to ask you... to try it and see if it's delicious."
Murayama Yoshiki thought it was a big deal. It turned out to be just a cake tasting, simple as that.
He picked up the small spoon next to him, took a look at the not-so-big heart-shaped cake, and without any hesitation, scooped a large spoonful and put it into his mouth.
"Ah!"
The rich milky aroma and the sweet and sour taste of strawberries instantly burst in your mouth.
Murayama Yoshiki's eyes lit up.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
He ate up the cake that carried the girl's love in just three or four bites.
After finishing his meal, he licked the spoon with a look of satisfaction, then nodded sincerely to Oshiage who was looking forward to it.
"It tastes delicious."
Zhi and Rixiang, who were standing nearby, huddled together and whispered to each other in low voices.
"No way...he just finished eating like that?"
"Did he see the 'I love you' written on it?"
"What a mistake... I forgot. Murayama's grades in school never seemed to be very good. Could he... could he not understand English?"
After finishing his cake, Murayama Yoshiki saw that Oshigami was still staring at him blankly, so he stood up.
"Is there anything else? If not, I'll leave first. I have something to do at school."
Yashang finally reacted.
However, she was so nervous that she couldn't say the key words.
Looking at her blushing cheeks and her hesitant look, Murayama Yoshiki finally understood something.
He pulled out a thousand-yuan note from the inside pocket of his school uniform and placed it on the table in front of Yamian.
"Here's the money for the cake. No need to change. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first..."
After saying that, Murayama Yoshiki turned around and walked out of the dessert shop without looking back.
Junko: "..."
Rixiang: "..."
Zhi: "..."
In the store, only a group of women, disheveled in the wind, were left.
When Murayama Yoshiki came out, he saw Ryuzaki Makoto still standing at the intersection.
I haven't even finished smoking a cigarette.
When Ryuzaki Shin saw that Murayama Yoshiki came out so quickly, he thought, how efficient is that? It was done so quickly?
He quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is it? What's going on?"
Murayama Yoshiki told the story truthfully about what had just happened in the store.
Ryuzaki was speechless after hearing this.
Murayama, oh Murayama, you deserve to be single for the rest of your life...
At night, Songfengtai.
Ryuzaki Shin, Asuka, and Nanako, as usual, sat around a low table and had dinner.
Ryuzaki Shin told the funny thing that happened in the restaurant as a topic of conversation at the dinner table.
Nanako spoke incoherently while eating her rice in big mouthfuls.
"I think that guy named Murayama is not very smart. He can't even see such an obvious confession. He is such an idiot."
Ryuzaki Shin smiled, reached out and picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into her bowl.
"Yes, yes, our Nanako is the smartest one. Nothing can be hidden from your eyes."
When Nanako heard this, she raised her head proudly and puffed out her chest.
"You don't even need to tell me! I'm incredibly smart!"
Asuka looked at Nanako's smug look and couldn't help but criticize her.
"Look at you, you're so capable, you talk so coherently, but you probably haven't even held a boy's hand, and you're still giving advice on other people's relationship problems."
When Nanako heard Asuka's words, she snorted in her heart.
Auntie, I have never held a man's hand?
I was completely horrified by this hateful man in front of me...
Thinking of those embarrassing scenes, Nanako felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
With a "bang", she slammed the bowl in her hand onto the table.
"I'm full, I don't want to eat anymore!"
Asuka looked at her sudden action and said helplessly.
"What's wrong with you, kid? You've finished eating already?"
Ryuzaki Shin looked at Nanako's back as she ran back to her room angrily. He knew what was going on, but he was also helpless. It seemed that he had to find an opportunity to solve it.
"Okay, Asuka, Nanako might be too tired from work recently and in a bad mood. Just leave her alone."
Asuka thought about it and agreed.
At this moment, Ryuzaki Shin suddenly stretched out his arms, picked up Asuka beside him, and let her sit on his lap.
"Come on, feed me."
Asuka's cheeks turned red in an instant.
The two bodies were pressed tightly together, and they could feel each other's heartbeat and body temperature.
…
The next day, at noon, on Nameless Street.
Nameless Street was still as chaotic, dirty and despairing as usual.
Ragged people huddled in groups of three or four in the corner of the abandoned factory, looking at the strangers coming and going with numb eyes.
Several children were rummaging through the pile of garbage, making playful noises from time to time.
The air was still filled with that disgusting complex smell.
At this moment, a shrill siren broke the silence.
More than a dozen police cars, lined up in neat formation, slowly drove into the entrance of the nameless street and then stopped.
The door of the leading police car opened, and Saeko, dressed in a neat police uniform, got out of the car.
She looked around, her brows furrowed tightly.
Soon after, Ono also got out from the passenger seat.
As soon as he got off the car, he started coughing violently because of the pungent smell in the air.
He quickly took out a mask from his pocket and put it on, covering his mouth and nose with his hands, his eyes full of disgust.
"Boss, are we really going to conduct drug enforcement here? I heard the people here are not easy to mess with."
Ono had also heard the rumors about the nameless street.
This is a forbidden zone of the law and a paradise for criminals.
The people who live here are a bunch of desperate criminals.
Saeko couldn't help but frown when she smelled the unpleasant smell in the air.
She also put on a mask and said to Ono.
"Xiao Ye, remember, fighting crime is our duty as police officers. No matter where the criminals are hiding, we have the responsibility to find them."
When Ono heard Saeko's words, the fear in his heart was instantly replaced by a sense of mission.
He immediately straightened his back and responded loudly.
"Yes! Boss!"
Then, Saeko walked in front, followed by thirty or forty fully armed policemen in two rows, following closely behind her as they walked towards the depths of the nameless street.
However, they had just entered the nameless street less than a hundred meters away.
From the maze of abandoned factories and shabby shacks around them, a group of ragged natives of Nameless Street came out in dense crowds.
They appeared silently, like ghosts emerging from the ground.
At a glance, there are at least hundreds of them.
These people quickly surrounded the police.
Each of them had a cold and hostile expression on their face, looking at these uninvited guests unkindly.
When the policemen behind Saeko saw this scene, they immediately felt a huge threat.
They raised their batons and riot shields, pointed them at the crowd around them, and shouted loudly.
"Everyone stand back! Don't come near! We are the police!"
However, this group of people remained unmoved and just looked at the police coldly, with no fear in their eyes, only ferocity.
Saeko narrowed her eyes.
The problem is a bit tricky.
Although her man told her the exact location of the drug deal, they couldn't even get close to it now.
Now the enemy has been alerted. If we delay here any longer, the people inside will probably get the news and run away, and then we will be empty-handed.
At this moment, the crowd that was blocking the way automatically separated into two sides.
Chainsmoker, along with the core members of RUDE BOYS, slowly walked out from the crowd.
He stood in front of Saeko and looked at her coldly.
"Please leave. Police are not welcome here."
Saeko also received information from Ryuzaki Shin and recognized the pale young man in front of her as the leader here, Smoker.
"Smoker, we are here to investigate the case, not to start a conflict with you. As long as you cooperate, we will never harm any innocent person."
The smoker looked at Saeko coldly and repeated it.
"I told you, we don't need police here."
Saeko's eyes also became sharp.
She looked at the stubborn young man in front of her and did not retreat at all. Instead, she shouted at him sternly.
"Ono!"
Ono immediately stepped forward and stood at attention.
"arrive!"
Saeko ordered loudly.
"Notify headquarters immediately! Request support from the Narcotics Squad, Mobile Unit, and Explosive Police! Reporting location: Wuming Street. A large crowd has gathered, obstructing police enforcement! This situation is urgent, requiring immediate assistance!"
"Got it, sir!" Ono immediately took out the walkie-talkie and began to report to his superiors.
Saeko's aura at this moment was extremely powerful.
Uncooperative?
Well, she has her own way of getting them to cooperate.
As a police officer, it is impossible for her to take the initiative to shoot and injure these seemingly unarmed "civilians".
However, once reinforcements arrive and the situation escalates, what happens then will be beyond her control.
Seeing such a tough Saeko, Smoker's expression changed slightly.
If a large police force were really allowed to enter the nameless street, large-scale conflicts would inevitably occur.
After all, these people are just homeless wanderers, how can they possibly fight against the state apparatus?
Shion, who was in the crowd, suddenly changed her expression when she heard that Saeko was going to ask for support.
He quietly left the crowd and turned to run deeper into the factory.
…
Nameless Street, on the second floor of an abandoned factory.
More than a dozen people were busy working.
A huge plastic sheet was spread on the ground, covered with red powder.
Several sophisticated instruments were running, making buzzing sounds.
Arden was leading a group of people from the village association to carefully pack the newly produced red powder into small bags, and then seal them with a vacuum machine.
This batch of goods is extremely large in quantity and of high value.
Nikaidou had specifically warned before the operation that absolutely no mistakes must be made.
Therefore, each of them was extremely alert and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Just at this moment, a noisy sound of footsteps came from the stairs.
Arden looked back warily and saw that it was Shion.
Why would the Jiacun Society dare to produce drugs in a place like Wuming Street?
It is because this is a no-man's land, so it is extremely safe.
However, RUDE BOYS will never allow drugs to appear on their territory.
Therefore, this requires an insider.
Their accomplice is Shion, one of the core members of RUDE BOYS.
This does not mean that Shion betrayed Smoker and his family.
On the contrary, the reason he took the risk was because he wanted to make money to treat his smoker.
When Arden saw Shion's panicked look, he immediately realized that something had happened.
"What's wrong?"
Shion leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.
"Something terrible is happening! The police are here! There are so many people here, they've blocked the street!"
Upon hearing the news, everyone present was shocked.
After a brief moment of shock, Arden reacted immediately.
He immediately gave orders loudly.
"Quick! Clear all the data from the computer! Pack the packaged goods immediately and take them away! Pour all the remaining raw materials into the reactor and destroy them! Quick! Hurry!"
The room was instantly plunged into a flurry of activity.
Just when a group of people were about to start dealing with the scene.
At this moment, a crisp snapping sound suddenly came from the empty floor...
The crisp sound of snapping fingers seemed extremely abrupt and harsh.
Everyone who was busy cleaning up the scene suddenly stopped moving.
They were frozen in place as if under a spell, and all looked in the direction of the sound.
At the empty entrance on the second floor of the factory, a man wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and the signature "Z" mask was leaning leisurely on the rusty door frame with his hands in his pockets.
The moment Shion saw that figure, she was horrified.
How could he not recognize it!
Isn't this the "Mr. Z" who easily knocked down himself and all his brothers at the intersection of Wuming Street the night before last?
How come he is here?
Ryuzaki Shin ignored everyone's astonished looks and spoke first.
"Oh, you're all here. Where are you going in such a hurry? Why don't you all sit down and have a good chat?"
Ardennes' time in the SWORD region was not in vain.
He also heard that an extremely mysterious "Mr. Z" had recently appeared in this area. He had single-handedly defeated the leaders of several major forces in the SWORD region. His methods were ruthless and his strength was unfathomable.
He once thought that if he could meet this "Mr. Z" and successfully recruit him under his command, then conquering this area would become much easier for him.
I didn't expect that I would meet him in this way on such an occasion.
Arden immediately suppressed the shock in his heart, walked quickly forward, took out an exquisitely made black business card from his pocket, and handed it to Ryuzaki Shin.
"Mr. Z, I've long heard of you. I'm Arden from the Jiacun Association, and I'm also the association's spokesperson for this area. If you're interested, the doors of the Jiacun Association are always open to you. With your abilities, if you join us, your future achievements will be limitless."
Ryuzaki Shin looked Arden up and down, his hands still in his pockets, with no intention of reaching out to take the business card.
"Oh, sorry, I'm a lazy person and don't like being a dog for others."
Hearing Long Qizhen's merciless ridicule, the smile on Arden's face froze instantly, and a hint of viciousness flashed in his eyes.
However, he knew that the situation was urgent and it was not the time to conflict with this person.
He glanced at his men behind him who had almost finished dealing with the matter, and spoke to them in a deep voice.
"Let's go."
However, just as he finished saying this, Ryuzaki Shin spoke.
"Leave? Where to? Didn't I tell you to stay here and have a good chat?"
Arden is not a fool, he can hear the true meaning behind Long Qi's words.
It was obvious that this person had bad intentions and was deliberately looking for trouble.
"Mr. Z, you have to think it through. We are the Jiacun Association..."
Before Arden could finish his words, Ryuzaki Shin's figure moved!
He took a step forward and kicked out with his right leg like a battle axe, hitting Arden's chest solidly!
"Bang!"
Arden only felt an irresistible huge force coming, and the whole person flew backwards in an instant, hitting the stairs in the distance heavily with a dull sound.
The intense pain made his eyes go black and blood spurted out of his mouth.
"The Jiacun Association? What the hell is that?"
The members of the village association present were instantly furious when they saw their leader being beaten.
"Asshole! You're looking for death!"
"Kill him!"
They roared angrily, pulled out batons and daggers from their arms, and pounced on Ryuzaki Shin like hungry wolves.
Ryuzaki Shin slowly twisted his neck twice, making a series of "cracking" sounds of bones.
There was a cruel and exciting light in his eyes.
Some time ago, he was holding back when dealing with Fengxian, Guixie Gao, and Shanwang.
After all, those people will be recruited for our own use in the future.
But, to deal with this bunch of scum from the Jiacun Association...
Haha, then there is no need to hold back.
The first person to rush up was a strong man holding a steel pipe.
He roared, raised the steel pipe high above his head, and used all his strength to smash it down hard on Long Qizhen's crown!
Ryuzaki didn't dodge or evade. At the moment when the steel pipe was about to fall, he suddenly raised his left arm and blocked the blow with his forearm!
"clang!"
The sound of metal colliding was extremely harsh.
The sturdy man felt as if his steel pipe had hit an indestructible steel plate, and the huge recoil force made his palm numb.
The next second, Ryuzaki Shin's right hand turned into a claw, and he grabbed the strong man's throat like lightning, then pressed it down suddenly, while raising his knee and hitting it hard on the strong man's chest!
"Crack!"
That was the sound of a sternum cracking.
The strong man's body suddenly stiffened, his eyes widened, and a "ho ho" sound came from his mouth, and blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth like a fountain.
Ryuzaki Shin loosened his grip and his body fell limply.
Immediately afterwards, two more people stabbed with daggers from both sides at the same time!
Ryuzaki Shin jerked his body back and dodged two daggers.
At the same time, he supported himself on the ground with his hands, kicked his legs upwards suddenly, and kicked the two men accurately on the jaw!
"Bang! Bang!"
The two men didn't even have time to scream before they flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground, their necks twisted at a strange angle, and it was obvious that they were not going to survive.
A guy holding a baton took advantage of the moment when Long Qi Zhen just landed and launched a sneak attack from behind him. The baton in his hand made a whistling sound and hit Long Qi Zhen's back of the head viciously!
Ryuzaki Shin didn't even turn his head. At the moment when the baton was about to hit him, he suddenly slid to the side and avoided the attack.
At the same time, he reached out with his right hand and snatched the steel pipe from the hand of a guy next to him who had just been dealt with.
He turned around, swung his arms, and the steel pipe in his hand drew a deadly arc in the air!
"Puff!"
The steel pipe went straight through the attacker's chest!
The man lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the blood-stained steel pipe that pierced his chest. His body twitched twice, and then he completely lost his life.
Ryuzaki didn't hesitate at all. He pulled out the steel pipe and rushed into the crowd again!
He was like a tiger among a flock of sheep. Every time he attacked, it was accompanied by the sound of breaking bones and shrill screams.
In less than a minute, more than half of the people were lying on the ground, and their blood had dyed the ground dark red.
At this moment, a figure appeared silently behind Ryuzaki Makoto.
It's Shion!
While Ryuzaki was dealing with the others, he picked up a steel pipe from the ground and launched a fatal sneak attack!
However, just as the steel pipe in his hand was about to hit Ryuzaki Shin's back of the head.
Ryuzaki Shin suddenly turned around and kicked Shion in the face with an extremely fast spinning kick!
"Bang!"
Shion's body was like being hit by a speeding truck. She flew sideways, hit the distant wall heavily, and then slid to the ground.
A stream of blood spurted out of his mouth, he struggled for a few times, and then fainted completely.
At this time, Arden, who had barely caught his breath, was frightened to death by the scene in front of him that looked like hell.
He knew that the police might rush over at any time.
Moreover, if he stayed any longer, he would most likely be beaten to death by this monster.
He secretly glanced at Ryuzaki Shin, and while the other party was not paying attention to him, he crawled down the stairs and escaped alone.
Of course, Ryuzaki Shin noticed his little action.
But, that's what he did on purpose.
Arden cannot be arrested now. I have other arrangements for this person later.
Qianqing hid under a huge workbench, her body trembling with extreme fear.
He was originally just an insignificant worker in this drug factory, but damned it, he met this "Mr. Z" again.
Saw the bloody and brutal side.
His fear of "Mr. Z" increased a little.
Just when Qianqing was praying desperately that "Mr. Z" would not discover her.
"Bang!"
The workbench where he was hiding was kicked over, revealing his figure curled up underneath.
Qian Qing raised his head in horror and saw the most terrifying scene in his life.
At this time, Ryuzaki Shin was standing in front of him.
Blood was dripping from his hands.
The black sweatshirt on his body had already been dyed dark red by the splattered blood.
Those eyes were cold and ruthless.
Qian Qing was so frightened that her whole body was shaking like a sieve and she couldn't even utter a word to beg for mercy.
Ryuzaki Shin looked at him, his eyes expressionless.
He raised his hand and chopped Qian Qing's neck cleanly and neatly with a knife.
Qian Qing's eyes went dark and she fainted instantly.
This troublemaker is of no use.
It's better to send him to prison and let him reflect on himself.
At this moment, the roar of a helicopter came from far away.
At this moment, hurried footsteps came up from the stairs.
At the stairs, a policeman appeared. It was Saeko.
She rushed to the location alone the moment the support troops arrived.
Saeko was afraid that the criminal would run away, and she didn't want to let her man down.
As soon as she came up, she saw Ryuzaki on the other side really preparing to leave.
And a scene like hell.
Ryuzaki Shinya noticed Saeko.
He stopped, turned around, and blew a kiss to Saeko with his bloody hands.
When Saeko saw this scene, she didn't feel any blood or fear.
Instead, he smiled brightly.
My man is so damn reliable...
