The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 391 Celebration Banquet (2)

"cheers!"

After Shichijo Masato gave a toast to which no one listened, "Thank you for everyone's hard work," everyone couldn't wait to start eating. Two old chefs stood by, one in charge of slicing fish and the other in charge of making sushi, trying hard to keep up with their progress in eating.

I heard that these two are "sushi masters" who have been doing this for decades. Anyway, Qian Xiaoyi didn't taste anything special, it was just that the ingredients were very delicious.

After two drinks, everyone let go of their inhibitions, forgot about the high-end sushi restaurant, and started chatting while eating and drinking.

"Is the commission completed already?" King Kong put down his beer glass, touched the back of his head and said, "It doesn't feel real at all. At that time, I thought the ending would be more exciting and explosive..."

Qian Xiaoyi ate the crab legs of the king crab and said, "So what do you want? Do you want us to shout words like 'bond', 'believe', 'protect', etc., and then increase our strength and rush forward to kill that guy?"

King Kong smiled and said, "That feels good too~"

"I think so too." Inuyama Heita agreed with a bulge in his mouth.

Suzuna complained: "Kongou, your thinking is already at the same level as a high school student... Read less comics, you are already so old."

King Kong's eyes widened as he pointed at himself, "Me? Old? I'm only 24!"

"Eh?!"

Everyone looked at the bearded King Kong. Apparently, they did not expect that even Inuyama Heita and Suzuki, who had not participated in the conversation, stopped eating and looked at King Kong in surprise.

"Hey! Why are you so surprised?" King Kong was a little puzzled.

Ling Na couldn't help but said, "That's totally not the case! Can't you just shave your beard? Now he looks like a middle-aged man in his 40s or 50s!"

King Kong shook his head quickly and said, "You can't shave it. This way the business will be better. Before, I didn't have a beard or hair. When I first arrived in Tokyo, no one was willing to believe that I was an exorcist. They all thought I was a thug from some gang. It was Mr. Gui Teng who suggested that I change my image. As a result, after I grew a beard, I had no shortage of clients..."

"Image is really important~" Qian Xiaoyi nodded with deep understanding. He was like this when he first arrived in Tokyo. It was not until he destroyed the Lucky Mutual Aid Association that he had customers. Qian Xiaoyi sighed and said, "Guiteng is really good in this regard. No matter who sees him, they will think that he must be an experienced exorcist and are willing to entrust him to exorcise ghosts...even though his ability is ridiculously weak."

Suzuna asked, "Come to think of it, I haven't seen him for a while. Where has Master Kitano gone?"

King Kong ate a piece of sushi and said with a bulging mouth, "After the competition with Mr. Qian, he said that he felt that his practice was not enough, so he went back to the temple in his hometown to practice. He contacted me some time ago and said that he would return to Tokyo in a while... Oh, this is delicious!"

Xing Changrang said, "He is quite motivated. Although he is an old senior, he always regards expanding his network as the most important thing. He only does simple commissions and asks others to help him solve problems when he encounters difficulties. But now it seems that the battle between Mr. Qian and Hiruda has awakened him. After all, in our line of work, if we encounter unexpected dangers, the greatest guarantee is our own strength. No matter how many connections we have, they are not as important as our lives."

"By the way, speaking of commissions..." Qian Xiaoyi suddenly remembered something and said, "Didn't you take the raccoon cat's crown away when we left? How's the research going?"

Nanajo Masato was a little curious: "Where did you bring the things out from?"

"That's right, and it's on me now." Xingchang Rang smiled slightly and said.

The others looked at Xingchangrang. He didn't seem to be wearing a crown or anything like that. Xingchangrang reached into his arms and took out a specimen of a green leaf. The leaf seemed to have been processed in some way, with a transparent protective layer on the surface, making it look alive.

"Wait, isn't this a leaf..." Suzuna suddenly came to her senses and asked, "Is this the crown?"

Nanajo Masato stroked his chin and looked at the leaf, saying, "The raccoon cat's crown... isn't that a leaf?"

In Japanese legend, when a raccoon cat transforms, it will put leaves on its head to cast spells, so the moment he took this thing out, the others understood.

"That's right." Xingchang Rang said, "After leaving that damn place, the crown turned into this leaf. It looks no different from other leaves. For the convenience of preservation, I made it into a specimen. Don't look at its ordinary appearance now. If it can be used, it can be a very magical camouflage prop~ But the only drawback is..."

The leaf was passed from one person to another and finally landed in Qian Xiaoyi's hands, who looked at it carefully.

King Kong scratched his head and said, "No matter how you look at it, it looks no different from an ordinary leaf."

Suzuna complained, "So the downside is that it's just an ordinary leaf?"

"No." Qian Xiaoyi played with the leaves and said, "The disadvantage is that this thing hides itself too well. To use it, you must have extremely high talent, such as... like this."

In an instant, everyone present saw that Qian Xiaoyi's pupils turned into vertical lines of animal pupils, but soon returned to their original state.

Suzuna's hair stood on end, she was startled, she covered her chest and said, "For a moment just now, I thought that the raccoon cat came back again."

"That guy's dangerous aura was originally a disguise." Qian Xiaoyi said with a smile: "Hasn't everyone seen his true form? It's just that small."

Qian Xiaoyi returned the leaf to Xingchangrang and said, "Although this thing is good, not everyone can use it. I'm afraid your store will have another unsaleable prop."

Xingchang Rang smiled and said, "Mr. Qian, what are you talking about? I still have you to use~"

He put the leaves away. When he agreed to help with the commission, the commission fee was secondary. His main purpose was to study monsters. Now that he had this thing, his purpose was achieved. It didn't matter whether he could sell it or not. It was also good to keep it as a collection. It was his hobby to see the precious props in his home continue to increase.

Suzuna asked, "By the way...why didn't Ms. Tachibana come? Takuya used to love her songs and listened to them every day like a homeboy."

Takuya paused as he pretended not to hear as he was filming the old master slicing fish with his sports camera.

Nanajo Masato said, "Ms. Tachibana? Because of Ms. Usami's matter, she has already flown to the United States to accompany her. She will not be back for a few days."

"Speaking of which, this time the involvement is really wide." Anna said: "How is WTV? And that old raccoon cat."

Everyone looked at Shichijo Masato. Everyone was still very interested in the follow-up of this matter. No, it should be said that everyone was interested in this matter. After all, this incident involved various popular artists, idol stars, congressmen, and officials. It could be said to be the hottest event in Japan recently, and everyone was discussing it.

As the initiator, Nanajo Masato must have some inside information that others don't know to satisfy their gossipy hearts.
