Liang Jian: I have a canteen

Xu San left the living room, leaving some space for Ichiro Yasuda and Genichirō Tasaki, just like he did when he went to fry peanuts just now.

Although he is the leader, it is better for him to leave in this situation, because after all, Ichiro Yasuda has not yet confirmed that his identity is related to the military.

At least it didn't say explicitly that it was related to the military.

Xu San doesn't smoke, but he always has cigarettes in his pocket.

He took out a cigarette and tapped it on the box, then put it to his lips.

In the silent courtyard, darkness loomed like an invisible curtain, swallowing up the noise and colors of the day.

The moonlight shines through the sparse clouds, casting mottled silver light, adding a touch of coolness to this Western-style courtyard.

The sycamore tree in the yard seemed to have been transplanted in response to the request of some important person. It seemed that the transplanting skill was not very good, or it might be that it was not adapted to the local climate and soil. Now its condition is not very good, with sparse leaves, and it stands listlessly against the wall.

The cold wind blew, and the sparse leaves swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound, which interweaved with the occasional chirping of insects in the distance to form a peaceful melody.

"Crack~"

With the crisp sound of the lighter, a wisp of fading flame appeared in front of Xu San.

He stretched out his hand and pushed it away. "I'm not smoking. I just hold it in my mouth so that I can think about things."

Lingzi put away the lighter and walked to Xu San's side, "Is there really something wrong with that Yasuda Ichiro?"

"Yes!" Xu San answered briefly.

"The egg fried rice was delicious. I ate it all. Not a single grain of rice was wasted."

“Is this a recognition of my cooking skills?”

"Yes! This is the best egg fried rice I have ever eaten."

"I'll make it for you when I have the chance." Xu San said calmly.

The whole yard is surrounded by a high wall, which is covered with ivy. Under the moonlight, they look like black tentacles extending outside the wall. With the interweaving of light and shadow, it seems that these tentacles are wriggling and stretching into the distance. It is late at night, but the small yard is not asleep. Lights are coming from the living room.

It seemed like a storm was brewing inside.

One game.
Xu San couldn't judge the severity of the storm, nor did he know to what extent he could stir it up.

But he knew that this might be the last time for him to stir up trouble before leaving.

The sound of the wind and the barking of dogs in the distance were the only noises in the dark night. Xu San turned his head to look at the light in the living room and felt that it was time to go back.

In addition to the lights in the living room, the lights in the study are also on.

It seems that Xiaomei has become the queen of this era, and has been staying up late to practice Taoism for several days in a row.

Xu San turned to Lingzi and said, "Lingzi, go check on Xiaomei and let her go to bed early today. Tell her that something might happen in the Demon City these days."

Reiko nodded and went to the study.

After flipping the unlit cigarette in his hand a few times, Xu San stuffed it into the cigarette box.

In the living room, Genichirō Tasaki and Ichirō Yasuda seemed to have completed the preliminary negotiations. When they saw Xu San coming in, they nodded to him respectively.

"How did the talk go? What should be done with Captain Huatian?" Xu San asked straight to the point.

It seems that Genichirō Tasaki has no good way to deal with this flower field.

He could use torture to extract a confession and possibly get some information out of him.

But after he met Xu San, he seemed to feel that torture might backfire.

Tasaki Genichiro turned to Xu San and asked, "Mr. Edogawa, do you have any good suggestions?"

"Play hard to get, and then buy a man for Brother Baotian. I think it might be easier to get information from Brother Baotian." Xu San replied directly. (End of this chapter)
