The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 394 Celebration Banquet (5)

Lai Shan successfully lay on the mattress, staring blankly at the bright ceiling. A strange and long-lost tranquility filled his heart. It was a feeling that surprised even himself. He originally thought that he would feel anger and fear after his defeat.

But what was waiting for him was a trance, as if he was in a dream, just a nightmare, and when he woke up, he was already in this specially made padded cell.

But it was precisely this cell that gave him an incomparable sense of security, because he knew that it represented an attitude, an attitude that someone did not want him to die. Otherwise, it would be much easier to just throw him into an ordinary prison.

Now that someone wants him dead, the enemies of those people will naturally not do as they wish. They will try every means to keep him alive.

"As long as I'm alive, there is hope..." Lai Shanchenggong rested his head on his hands and thought silently.

This matter is far from over, and it has just begun. After all, there are too many people involved. If things go wrong, it will be the fuse of a major earthquake in Japanese politics. What I have to do is to use the intelligence I have as a bargaining chip and spend my best efforts to mediate between the two parties. Maybe I can get a good ending in the end~
Thinking of this, Lai Shancheng smiled, and even hummed a song he composed. Thinking back to the past, he had also struggled on the stage and climbed up after going through untold hardships. What storms and waves had he not seen? It was just a crisis. As long as he could get through it, then...

He stretched out his palm in front of him and stared at it. In a trance, he saw a furry claw.

"That's right, as long as this power is still there..." Lai Shan Chenggong's eyes sparkled with hope. In his mind, the faces of Qian Xiaoyi, Nanajo Masato, Tachibana Mio, Usa Mi Sakura, and other enemies emerged. Lai Shan Chenggong thought silently: "Just wait, I won't die so easily, I will come back and take revenge on you severely! This is the price you pay for not killing me!"

Just when he was still thinking about how to operate in the cell and use his own intelligence to deal with both sides, he suddenly heard footsteps outside.

"It's not time to eat yet." Lai Shan successfully sat up from the mattress: "Then there must be new progress in the case. I wonder if it's good news."

The person who came was a police captain, who came to the outside of the cell accompanied by two guards.

"It's a face I haven't seen before..." Lai Shan successfully walked to the door and looked at the person carefully.

This person was holding a folder. After seeing Lai Shanchenggong, he smiled and said, "Laishanchenggong, you look very ugly now~"

"Who are you?" Lai Shancheng looked at him warily and asked, "Where is the police officer in charge of me? He should be the one investigating the bribery case, right?"

The man smiled and said, "What a coincidence. I am also in charge of your case, but I am not investigating you or the people behind you. Instead, I am... representing the victims you have violated. I am in charge of the case involving your artists. My name is Kenzo Hasegawa, and I am a police inspector in the 2nd Division of Sex Crime Investigation of the First Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department. Please give me your guidance."

"Tsk... a small fry." Lai Shanchenggong yawned contemptuously.

Hasegawa Kenzo narrowed his eyes. "You... you really have no regrets for what you did. Or are you still dreaming of resisting and denying these things?"

Lai Shanchenggong sneered. Compared with the issues involved in the list, what was the big deal about just infringing on a few artists?

"No, Chief, I admit it." Lai Shanchenggong spread his hands mockingly and said, "That kind of trivial matter doesn't matter. I admit it all. I violated them. I regret doing that now. I'm about to cry... So those people I asked them to serve are also your responsibility? Chief~"

His meaning was clear: You think you can control this kind of thing? Go to hell as soon as possible.

"You really deserve a beating, you fellow." Hasegawa Kenzo patted the folder in his hand and said, "It's not so easy to confess. Let's take a look at the evidence we have collected. These files are really thick. How many people did you violate?"

He opened the drawer at the door and put the folder in the storage box.

"Haha, I can't remember clearly." Lai Shan successfully opened the storage box from inside, took out the folder, and said with a smile: "I have played with countless children. In short, it is much more than you can imagine."

"Asshole! Even in this situation, you still..." Hasegawa Kenzo seemed to be irritated by this guy and hit the tempered glass window hard with his fist. "Oh~ I suggest you don't be so excited, Mr. Inspector." Lai Shanchenggong picked up the thick folder and said sarcastically: "I am an old man. If I get scared by you and have a heart attack, I will not be able to cooperate with your investigation. You know, I have changed my mind and become a good person now."

"Nonsense!" Hasegawa Kenzo said angrily, "You bastard, you'd better die here now!"

"No, I'm planning to enjoy my retirement life after I get out." Lai Shan laughed, then sat on the soft mattress, raised the folder in his hand, and said, "There are a lot of words on these documents. It will probably take a while to read them. Please give me a cup of tea, thank you."

"What do you think I am? A waiter?" Hasegawa Kenzo asked, "Or do you think this is a holiday hotel?"

"Of course I have them all." Lai Shanchenggong waved his hand in disdain, "Okay, I'm going to take a good look at these documents. Please don't disturb me, Chief. Just find a seat and sit down. Don't be polite. Just treat it like your own home."

Hasegawa Kenzo spat, "You're so sharp-tongued!"

He sat down on a chair outside angrily, staring at Lai Shanchenggong fiercely through the glass window.

Lai Shanchenggong chuckled, sat on the mattress, leaned against the wall, and read the testimonies of the victims leisurely as if he was reading a newspaper.

"Eh? It turns out that someone reported something that happened so long ago~" Lai Shancheng successfully saw the wonderful part and recalled: "It was so beautiful. My body was not so rotten at that time. I was in my prime~ Alas, time is unforgiving~"

It seemed that in his eyes, these were not evidence of his guilt, but the beautiful past in his life, which reminded him of the happy times in the past.

Kenzo Hasegawa couldn't stand it anymore and could only close his eyes and rest, thinking out of sight, out of mind.

Just as Lai Shan was reading with great interest and laughing from time to time, he turned another page and saw a strange emblem on the cover of the document.

The moment he saw the emblem, fear appeared on Lai Shan Chenggong's face. It was an emblem composed of two Chinese characters.

"【Hundred Ghosts】..." Lai Shan murmured successfully.

The lights on the ceiling suddenly began to flicker, making the world dim. Lai Shanchenggong's body gradually grew hair, claws, and ears, and he turned into a short raccoon cat.

And in Lai Shanchenggong's eyes, the emblem gradually distorted and turned into a line of words:

[Long time no see, Yun Wai Jing, I heard that your nest was destroyed by someone? ]

"It's you!" The King of Tanuki said anxiously, "What are you going to do? I'm still useful! I'm also a member of the Hundred Demons, and I've made contributions to the organization! You can't do that to me! Go and tell the Great Tengu that as long as you give me some time, I can still rebuild the nest..."

[It is no longer needed, someone else has already done it.] The handwriting slowly changed: [Thank you so much for your dedication during this period. There is no doubt that you are a great contributor, but for the common good of all, please make your final contribution.]

The King of Civet Cats stood up in horror, as if he had seen something horrible.

Hasegawa Kenzo suddenly realized something was wrong. He felt a gaze, so he opened his eyes and saw Lai Shan Chenggong standing behind the door, staring at him with wide eyes.

"I..." Lai Shanchenggong murmured weakly, "I feel a little unwell... send me to the hospital..."
