197: Chapter 23 Simple and Violent 197: Chapter 23 Simple and Violent Chikashima Airi couldn’t understand Pang iqin’s words, but looking at the expressions of the other people in the car, she knew that they were reluctant.
“Let her stay with soone, find a relative or friend’s ho to live for a month, we can even consider the neighbors, we’ll pay, I am sure they would be willing to take care of her.” Li Xinlan would not shirk responsibility, she wouldn’t even complain, she was trying to think as much as possible to help Tang Zheng reduce pressure, “I think this is a good idea.”
Tang Zheng nodded, and translated it to Ai Li.
“But I’ve never left my sister, she will be scared.” Ai Li was a bit worried, looking at Tang Zheng with pleading eyes, “You’re so strong, carrying one more girl shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
“Do as Xin Lan suggested, find a trustworthy household for accommodations.
I will give you four million yen, if you still have concerns, hire a 24-hour nurse, then you don’t have to worry about her illness.” Tang Zheng can’t afford to take another little girl, “Staying with us is too dangerous.”
“Sister Ai Li, I’m already a burden.” Little Fan Fan mocked herself, saying depicting that there was no more room for additional burden in the team.
“Okay, I guess I have no other choice.
When do we leave?” Just thinking of being separated from her sister and staying with these strangers for a month, Ai Li suddenly wondered if her decision had been too hasty.
She could have asked the police for help, but the appearance of the aliens made her dispel this thought.
“The sooner the better.” Zhang Hao pointed to his watch and made a gesture to hurry up, but there was no practical point.
If it were Tang Zheng, he would not have said so, but would have given a specific ti, or even action plan.
“Now I’ll take you ho to pack so essentials, then deal with your sister’s situation, and then we’ll leave.” Tang Zheng began to check his watch and estimate the ti.
“Your ho address, tell .”
“Ueno Rokucho 2-16.” Ai Li’s mind was in a ss, and she had lost her ability to think.
“You should still be in school right?” Tang Zheng had no way to be gentle with her feelings.
“Yes, high school sophomore.”
“Then you need to take a leave of absence.
If you disappear for a month without a reason, you might be treated as a missing person.
If a bunch of police start looking for you, that would be even more troubleso.” Tang Zheng took out a small notebook and started jotting down various precautions and steps, any missed information was quickly written down.
“Tang Zheng, aren’t you exaggerating?
You’re even writing it down?” Pang iqin saw Tang Zheng’s movents through the rearview mirror, and couldn’t help but exclaim, “I thought you had a good mory?”
“What if the teacher doesn’t grant the leave?
Or if they ask for the reason for my leave?” Chikashima Airi, obviously a good child who never lied, knitted her brows for these matters.
“Pay them to keep quiet.”
Everyone was shocked.
They didn’t expect Tang Zheng to use such a straightforward and effective thod, they all assud he would threaten or intimidate.
“Even small matters like these need Tang Zheng’s attention.
If it were , I would be utterly exhausted.” Natural Silly White Fruit felt like there was a mountain being pressed onto her symphony by seeing Tang Zheng’s furrowed brows and the constantly serious expression.
Nevertheless, she thought Tang Zheng’s concealnt of his worries was cool.
“How are we getting to Tokyo?” Pang iqin asked another sharp question.
“Take the JR Shinkansen, we can get there in two and a half hours.” Li Xinlan thought for Tang Zheng.
“No, don’t forget we were ambushed by aliens on the train when we ca here.
There’s a good chance it could happen again.
You guys plan to jump off the train to escape?” Zhang Hao raised doubts because he was not in a hurry to go to Tokyo since they had found Ai Li, so he wanted a safe way.
“But taking the express bus would take more than ten hours, and we have to travel with others, which is not safe either.” Bai Guo was also thinking about Tang Zheng, “And if we drive ourselves, we don’t know the way.”
“If I knew things would be this complicated, I should have taken a close look at the information Tang Zheng collected.” Zhang Yifeng wanted to join the conversation to show his presence, but hearing their fluent argunts, he, not even knowing how to buy Shinkansen tickets, certainly had no room to interject.
“Aliens do not just pop up, looking at their appearance rule, the more contact with outsiders the more dangerous it becos.
There are quite a few toll stations and gas stations on the way, you can’t really avoid those, can you?”Lin Weiguo also inclined to take the Shinkansen, “Less ti also ans less risk.”
“Actually, I want to choose the plane.
After all, we have the mory eraser, so I’m not worried about not having a passport and such.” Little Fan Fan stated but then shook her head and rejected her own idea, “But if an alien kills the pilot, we’re done for.”
“Right, where’s my mory Eraser?” Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao hurriedly groped his pocket and casually looked at Little Fan Fan, “Did you take it?”
“Hmph.” Little Fan Fan moved closer to Tang Zheng, completely ignoring him.
“I took it.
I’ll give it back to you when this ga is over.” Tang Zheng added in his heart, “If you can survive until the end, that is.”
“No way, that’s a B-level prop worth three thousand points, give it back to .” Zhang Hao was not happy, spitting while arguing, nearly losing his temper.
“Are you ready for a one-on-one with ?” Tang Zheng’s denial was simple and brutal.
The fact that he didn’t outright seize the object was already a sign of respect on his part.
“So what if I am?” Zhang Hao yelled out defiantly, refusing to back down.
He believed he should use his Seed Ability to intimidate this man, but just as he was about to show his power, he noticed that aside from the two college students, everyone else’s guns were subtly pointed at him.
“Just, just kidding.” Zhang Hao hastily offered a smile and backed down, cold sweat trickling down his back.
He was certain that if he made a move, others would eagerly add a few holes in his body.
One against five?
He didn’t have the nerve.
He was even wary of Tang Zheng alone.
“But you must give it back to .” Zhang Hao sat down on a chair, reconsidering, “Let’s take the Shinkansen.”
Bai Guo looked at Zhang Hao, puzzled.
“Humph, as long as I can’t die, it’s fine.
Use the aliens to wear out your team, then I’ll make my move.” Zhang Hao was now desperate to kill this insufferably arrogant group who weren’t even considered Conquerors.
“I disagree.” Zhang Yifeng finally found a chance to interrupt, but no one paid him any attention.
Frustrated and teeth clenched, he also wished he could kill them all.
“Because you lack the power, you have no right to speak.” Hu ng tugged at Zhang Yifeng’s sleeve, not understanding why he couldn’t grasp this simple truth, and chose instead to humiliate himself.
Once the plan was set, the entire team began to move–no drag, no delay.
They arrived at the Kyoto Railway Station from Nantan City a little past noon.
Thanks to the mory Eraser, Tang Zheng had no difficulty purchasing tickets for specific seats on the Shinkansen Hope.
Chikashima Airi, who was acting as both a guide and bodyguard to Tang Zheng, was astounded when she saw the ticket seller completely forget being coerced into selling tickets just monts ago.
Every now and then, she would steal a glance at the device in Tang Zheng’s hand, extrely curious.
“I believe you guys are from the future.” Airi sighed, before asking, puzzled, “You haven’t used it on , have you?”
“It’s ineffective on you.” Tang Zheng resolved any potential follow-up questioning with a white lie, “Don’t think about playing with it.
I won’t let you.”
“Spoilsport.”
Airi, after all, was a young girl.
She soon shrugged off the danger and began to look forward to the journey on boarding the Hope, seeing the beautiful scenery along the way.
But when she saw a friendly uniford female attendant pushing a food cart, her stomach growled.
“Order whatever you like.” Tang Zheng rembered that everyone hadn’t eaten yet and quickly apologized, “Bai Guo, i Qin, don’t be shy.
Little Fan Fan is treating.”
“Bad uncle, you rember that was the money I earned.” Little Fan Fan sat across Tang Zheng, pretending to be angry.
After saying this, she giggled.
“Then I will have a feast.” Airi laughed and teased Tang Zheng.
Because she needed to be closely protected and others didn’t speak Japanese, Tang Zheng had been with Airi all morning.
Unconsciously, their relationship had improved a lot.
“No problem,” Tang Zheng laughed right away, “But you’ve missed your chance.”
Turning her head, Airi saw Little Fan Fan was beckoning the attendant, leaving all the food on the cart.
“Sister, are there any other specialty dishes?
Please bring another cart over here, thanks.” Little Fan Fan was munching on a golden tempura while muttering and then looked at Tang Zheng, “Uncle, pay.”
“Be careful or you’ll beco a fatty.” Tang Zheng paid promptly and then handed Airi a bento box of unagi rice and kurobuta, “We didn’t say you could only pick one.”
“Thank you.” Airi gratefully accepted the bento box, lowering her head.
She was afraid that Tang Zheng would notice the blush creeping into her cheeks.
She felt Tang Zheng was very considerate and sohow knew exactly what she wanted.
“Uncle’s consideration isn’t limited to just this.” Looking at Tang Zheng who was currently asking Xin Lan and Bai Guo about their preferences, Little Fan Fan pretended to be jealous, “Do you know why he let you sit by the window?
To better protect you.
Even Little Fan Fan doesn’t get this treatnt.”
Airi didn’t say anything, but her glances at Tang Zheng beca more frequent.
“Success.
Once Airi develops feelings for Tang Zheng, she’ll do as she’s told.
This girl is vital to everyone’s safety.
It’s better if she doesn’t have independent thoughts.” Little Fan Fan swallowed a rice ball mixed with green seaweed, “Just go through this month like a marionette!”
After taking a asure of all the passengers in the carriage, Tang Zheng finally allowed himself to relax a bit.
He took in the scenery, appreciated the female attendants’ figures—it was an acceptable pasti as long as Little Fan Fan wasn’t causing trouble.
“Uncle, let’s play shogi!” The loli took out a box of chess pieces from her backpack and arranged them on the table, initiating another attempt to raise Tang Zheng’s favorability in Ai Li’s eyes.
As expected, Airi looked at him expectantly.
“I don’t know how.” Tang Zheng wasn’t embarrassed in the slightest and openly refused.
“That’s fine, let sister Airi teach you.” Little Fan Fan obviously had a plan in mind.
