Chapter 184: Jiulong

Cherry blossoms swayed and fell with the wind, landing on the subway platform.

A pair of male and female students wearing Jindai High School uniforms were sitting side by side on a bench on the platform. The boy had a firm gaze rarely seen in students, and his straight sitting posture gave people a spirited feeling.

Chidori Kaname sat next to the boy, looking at Sousuke's firm profile, full of curiosity about Sousuke in her heart.

Although Sousuke had caused many incidents in the short few days since transferring, giving Chidori Kaname, as the class representative, a headache.

But his behavioral pattern, which was completely different from ordinary students, successfully aroused Chidori Kaname's curiosity.

Especially an hour ago, after Chidori Kaname was saved by Sousuke when she almost encountered a car accident, Chidori Kaname felt a trace of good feeling toward Sousuke in her heart.

That was when Chidori Kaname discovered someone had lost a handbag in a coffee shop. The warm-hearted Chidori Kaname picked up the handbag and went to chase the customer who had forgotten the handbag.

As a result, in her anxiety to cross the road, she was almost hit by a passing truck. At the critical moment, Sousuke, who had been stalking Chidori Kaname, flew over to save Chidori Kaname, successfully leaving his mark in Chidori Kaname's heart.

Of course, after that, Sousuke's clumsy stalking was completely exposed to Chidori Kaname's eyes.

"How long are you going to follow me?"

The impatient Chidori Kaname directly questioned Sousuke about the reason for stalking her.

"What a coincidence, Chidori-san."

But Sousuke, in the face of iron-clad facts, still denied his stalking behavior with a straight face.

Helpless, Chidori Kaname had a flash of inspiration and left the train at the moment the train doors were closing, successfully leaving Sousuke on the train.

But very quickly, Sousuke directly opened the train window and jumped off the moving train.

Due to inertia, Sousuke, who was doing a protective maneuver, rolled on the platform, continuously knocking over a bench and a trash can on the platform.

In an instant, the girl's heart was shaken by Sousuke's persistence.

Putting aside her prejudice against Sousuke, Chidori Kaname intended to try to understand this transfer student with a firm gaze in her own way, trying to understand what was behind his strange behavior.

Just like that, a high school girl from a peaceful world and an AS pilot from Mithril—two people who absolutely couldn't have intersected—were gradually attracted to each other's gaze.

Two hearts also began to move closer to each other.

And just when the male and female protagonists of this world were attracting each other, Li Boyong finally finished grading the students' small tests and stepped onto his small car with a brisk pace.

Thinking of Shihe waiting for him at home with dinner ready, Li Boyong felt a sense of happiness like living a newlywed life.

Accidentally running two red lights on the way, Li Boyong returned to that apartment impatiently.

After parking the car in the underground parking lot, he suddenly vigilantly took out a pistol from the storage box in the passenger seat, put it on his body, and then got out of the car.

"Who's hiding there?"

He shouted toward a shadow on the right.

Soon, a round of applause sounded from the shadow, and a tall man in a suit walked out of the shadow while clapping.

Li Boyong's eyes shrank—Jiulong!

"Oh, oh, not bad vigilance."

Jiulong clapped his hands, wantonly expressing his feelings: "I didn't expect to meet the famous Tiger of Ankelasitan here. This mission is really becoming interesting."

"I didn't expect to meet one of the candidates for Executive Officer here either. So, what does the famous Jiulong want with me?" Li Boyong asked back. He wasn't surprised that Jiulong appeared in this city, just surprised that the other party would come to find him.

"Nothing, just met a colleague by accident while performing a mission, so I came to say hello."

Jiulong shrugged, "Speaking of which, you and I seem to have some connection. I really owe you for taking care of the two little ghosts in my family."

Two little ghosts?

He should be talking about the Xia sisters.

"But..."

Before Li Boyong could respond, Jiulong continued to talk to himself: "Without the owner's consent, don't casually instill strange thoughts into other people's tools!"

"That's a tool person I worked so hard to train; it's a tool that's more obedient than a dog. It's all your fault for instilling strange things when you were in contact with them. Now they've started to become disobedient. How are you going to compensate me?"

"When a tool like that has its own thoughts, it won't be that obedient. Don't you even understand such a simple truth?"

Continuous accusations came rushing toward him, and Jiulong's attitude became increasingly bad. A faint murderous aura also began to permeate this underground parking lot.

However, for Li Boyong, this kind of small scene really didn't count for anything. After all, even a big shot like Niaoren, who almost controlled the Earth Alliance, had been killed by his own hands.

"Is this boring complaint all you came to see me for?" Li Boyong asked back: "The future Executive Officer seems to be unexpectedly a person with a narrow mind."

"Originally, I thought you would be more sensible than that pervert Gates, but today's meeting makes me a bit disappointed, Mr. Fe."

Indeed, when he was in the Middle East, he did take the opportunity to instill some thoughts into the Xia sisters.

But it was just an attempt. He didn't expect it to cause Jiulong's complaint.

It seemed the change in the Xia sisters was much greater than he had thought.

Speaking of the Xia sisters, that pair of sisters currently seemed to be accompanying Wang Liumei on a foreign visit.

Since the two sisters were excellent killers, they could naturally be excellent bodyguards.

After all, knowing how to kill naturally meant knowing defensive means.

"Tch, you really have the guts to be distracted when talking to me."

Jiulong seemed to see Li Boyong's distraction and asked in a vicious tone.

"You flatter me. Guts are something you naturally have after killing a few big shots."

Li Boyong said truthfully, not afraid of the murderous intent Jiulong was wantonly emitting, and asked again: "Let's get to the point. I don't think the famous Jiulong came to find me just to say those things, right?"

Just as Li Boyong said, the verbal confrontation just now was just a boring mutual probing.

"What a man who can't take a joke. I was just going to say that if you like, as long as you can offer a suitable price, it wouldn't matter if I gave you that pair of sisters."

Jiulong suddenly relaxed his attitude because an infrared dot had already been projected on his forehead.

When he noticed something wrong in the car just now, Li Boyong had already urgently notified his subordinates upstairs via text message. The nonsense he just said was also for the purpose of stalling for time.

At this moment, in the dim parking lot, it was already filled with battle-hardened mercenaries holding firearms.

"Hey, hey, what a gorgeous and grand welcome ceremony."

Jiulong raised his hands and said lazily, "But I'm not unprepared. I've already placed bombs on the load-bearing walls of this building. If you don't want to die together, you'd better not act rashly." ===== CHAPTER 185 =====
