Because You Were There

Morioka Masao sat on his knees and bowed to the ground, looking very sincere.

Prompt information:

"Step 2 of the side mission: Extermination starts."

"Mission goal: wipe out the Matsuzaki-gumi headquarters and kill all gang members above senior cadres."

"Mission period: 48 hours."

"Task Difficulty: A."

"Task reward: unknown."

Bai Xiaowen flicked the table with his fingers and said calmly, "No problem." He chose to accept the task.

Morioka Masao originally prepared a lot of rhetoric, but now there is no need for it. He couldn't help but be overjoyed and said diligently, "Shirai-san, if you have any needs, please feel free to tell us. Our North Town geishas are quite famous throughout Fukuoka..."

Li Shuyi's face was stern, and his feet in small leather shoes paused slightly.

Bai Xiaowen sat upright, coughed and waved his hands and said, "There is no need for a geisha. Just sort out the detailed information of the famous players who participated in the recent King of Fighters Tournament and give it to me."

"Please rest assured Shirai-san, the information you want will be delivered to you as quickly as possible!"

After Morioka Masao left, Li Shuyi sat down:

"I just heard that Geisha, Xiao Wen, you seem very excited?"

"No way, geishas are all covered with three inches of powder, which is scary white. Who would be interested..." Bai Xiaowen coughed, "Also, Shu Yi I have to correct one of your ideas. Japan geishas are different from prostitutes... To put it simply, they are prostitutes and not prostitutes."

Japan Geisha must undergo rigorous training. They start learning skills at the age of 10. Within a few years, they complete all courses including culture, etiquette, language, decoration, poetry, and harp, including bowing, pouring wine, etc. They can only go to work at the age of 16. The type of work belongs to the performing arts, not to showing off the body.

After Bai Xiaowen went through the popular science, Li Shuyi hummed twice. "I didn't think wrong... Do you feel guilty for explaining so much?"

"Looks like I need to cheer myself up..." Bai Xiaowen muttered.

Without waiting long, the information requested by Bai Xiaowen was sent over, along with Morioka Masao.

After briefly flipping through the information, Bai Xiaowen nodded. "Okay, let's go."

Morioka Masao was stunned. "Shirai-san, are you going to Matsuzaki-gumi's headquarters? With all due respect, should we discuss the combat strategy in detail?"

"Oh, that's no need," Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and directly gave up [Side Mission Step 2: Extermination] in the task list, and said calmly, "I suddenly thought that there are more important things to do. Matsuzaki-gumi will leave it to you to deal with."

Li Shuyi Although a little puzzled, he still followed suit and gave up the side mission.

Morioka Masao's face became gloomy for a moment, and then he barely returned to normal. "Shirai-san, are you kidding me?"

"Which of your eyes saw that I was joking?" Bai Xiaowen sneered and said, "I think you are kidding me. Who is Sōmachi Ryūichi? The leader of the three generals Matsuzaki-gumi! In your eyes, his life is only worth 500,000 yen? Tens of thousands of China coins? Several thousand dollars?"

Morioka Masao breathed a sigh of relief, "Shirai-san originally disliked the meager reward, why didn't you explain it earlier? I originally planned to pay the full reward after Matsuzaki-gumi was wiped out, but now there is nothing wrong with paying it to Shirai-san in advance."

Senior cadre Yokoyama Yoshihisa ran over carrying a lockbox. The box was opened, and neatly stacked inside were stacks of Japanese yen banknotes with a face value of 10,000 yuan.

Bai Xiaowen had long seen that the lockbox was filled with ordinary Japanese yen that "cannot be taken out of this world". He snorted without looking at the pile of "Fukuzawa Yukichi" and kicked the lockbox over:

"Morioka-kun said these nonsense, do you think I am a three-year-old child? Since Morioka Group disrespected me first, then don't blame me for leaving. You can stop me and give it a try!"

Morioka Masao suddenly remembered that the "Huaxia Country Exorcist" in front of him was a typical example of revenge. Because Matsuzaki-gumi was disrespectful to him, he had to unite with Morioka Group to destroy Matsuzaki-gumi and also kill Sōmachi Ryūichi!

Thinking of this, Morioka Masao did not dare to continue to block it, so he could only let Bai Xiaowen and the two leave.

Walking out of the bar, Li Shuyi couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Wen, why don't you continue this mission? The opportunity to dig out side missions is rare, so it's a pity to give up like this."

"Two reasons," Bai Xiaowen stretched out his first finger, "First, our first goal is to complete the main mission and gain a revered reputation in the human camp. Morioka Group is too small, not even a small camp..."

"As for the second one...Shu Yi Have you ever heard of the word 'stretch'?"

Li Shuyi nodded and automatically turned on the word grouping mode. "Stretch the face, stretch it, stretch the hair..."

"Stop, it means 'stretch'," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "Soon Morioka Group will feel the pressure from Matsuzaki-gumi... Only when they are desperate and come to beg me can I get more benefits!"

Li Shuyi thought for a while and suddenly understood, "When we came back from Tōchō Temple, we felt someone following us. You said it was Matsuzaki-gumi's minions and ignored us. I was still confused at the time... Now that I think about it, you must have let Matsuzaki-gumi's tail follow us on purpose, right?"

Bai Xiaowen nodded. "That's absolutely correct. In this way, Matsuzaki-gumi will know that it was Morioka Group who bribed us as killers to kill Sōmachi Ryūichi! This is obviously equivalent to a declaration of war. Next, if we step aside, Matsuzaki-gumi will inevitably launch an offensive against Morioka Group..."

Li Shuyi nodded, she finally understood.

Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi are not afraid of Matsuzaki-gumi's revenge. Putting aside their strength, their goals are too small. Whether they hide or leave Fukuoka, it is very simple. Morioka Group's territory is in Fukuoka, and they are Matsuzaki-gumi's competitors, so they will inevitably encounter them head-on.

"Morioka Group will it fall too fast?" Li Shuyi said, "I remember that there are awakened ones over there at Matsuzaki-gumi."

"If you fall, you will fall. This kind of side mission, I just did it unintentionally. The main mission, especially the contact with Three Sacred Treasures Families, is my main goal..."

Bai Xiaowen thought for a while and spent some brain cells to make a deduction:

"Actually, if I were those two awakened ones, it would be the best choice to change my mind and come to Morioka Group when he is in danger. If I were a little bit harsher, I could knock Morioka Masao down to his underwear... What's more, over Matsuzaki-gumi, there are at least two High Elite Tier that can be killed! Hey, you can also make a profit, of course, the premise is that you have the ability to kill level 5 Elite Tier..."

Li Shuyi looked at Bai Xiaowen with a hint of admiration, and finally sighed and said, "Xiao Wen, when did your brain become so useful? When I am with you, I will become very stupid and lazy, and I will not even want to think..."

[When did my brain become so useful?]

In fact, Bai Xiaowen has also thought about this problem.

In another time and space, what Bai Xiaowen is best at as a writer is layout and speculation, but his brain power and observation ability are limited. It is difficult to remember complex information details, and he cannot multi-purpose and cover everything. It is like a weak chicken who has Master Tier consciousness but a plastic rank operation. He often fails to gank and is bullied...

The Super Brain brought by Eye of Evolution has undoubtedly greatly improved the "hardware capabilities" of Bai Xiaowen. The observation, calculation and memory capabilities have almost exceeded human limits, and can give full play to the layout capabilities of Bai Xiaowen.

This is equivalent to equipping "Master Tier Consciousness" with the ultimate level of human operation capabilities. The counter-kill, extreme single-kill and other cool operations that have been imagined in the mind are as simple as eating and drinking. Of course, it is invincible.

However, it's fine to keep this kind of secret in your heart, but it's still not suitable to explain it to Li Shuyi.

Bai Xiaowen rubbed Li Shuyi's hair and said a lot of nice things, "In my eyes, Shu Yi will always be the school beauty and Academic Ace who combines beauty and intelligence. How could she become stupid?"

Li Shuyi chuckled and grabbed Bai Xiaowen's hand, "I've thought about it, it doesn't matter even if I become stupid... because you are here."

I posted it as soon as I wrote it. Saving it is an excuse to be lazy... Well, I have updated it to 1800. Is everyone keeping it up? Every time I update, I see that Junding is diving all the way, and I feel short of breath. I weakly ask for another automatic subscription... please vote...
