The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 484 Death Game Part 18 ()

After saying goodbye to Ashiya Yoshisuke, Hoshiba, Qian Xiaoyi and Inuyama Heita walked out along the alley.

On the way, Xingchang Rang couldn't help asking, "Hey, Mr. Qian, is this the situation you want to see? I still don't understand, why didn't you tell the old man about the monster in advance? If we were prepared, we could quickly and quietly destroy the opponent's nest, just like we did to Lai Shan Chenggong, catching the opponent off guard. But why did you spread the news? So that the enemy would also react."

Qian Xiaoyi said: "If we tell the old man the intelligence in advance, we can indeed launch a surprise attack, but what then?"

"Then?" Xingchang was a little confused.

"That's what we did to succeed in coming to the mountain, right?" Qian Xiaoyi asked, "But what was the result? At that time, we had just learned about Baigui from Mr. Ashiya, and Baigui quickly cut off ties with him and abandoned him, and then the clues were directly disconnected.

The arcade is our only clue at the moment, so if we still use the same method to deal with those ghosts, even if the surprise attack is successful and their nest is destroyed, it will only cause that scene to repeat itself. What's even more uncomfortable is that we may face revenge from those gangs in real life."

"I understand a little bit now..." Xingchang Rang pondered, "So we should put it on the table, and then use the old man's connections to negotiate with other hostile forces, so that those forces in reality can contain them, and at the same time prevent the ghosts behind them from immediately making the decision to abandon them, so that we can find out more information from them?"

"That's right." Qian Xiaoyi said: "Although the top leaders of Baigui are indeed determined to cut off their own limbs, that is only a choice when they have no other choice. If the risk of being exposed is not great, who would choose to cut off their own limbs? As long as they dare to make any move, they will definitely be exposed.

The most important thing is that we have successfully dragged the existence of the Hundred Ghosts out of the shadows. Although we don’t know the identity of their top leaders yet, all the exorcists have confirmed their existence. This is a very good opportunity for us, but the premise is that we can win this bet. "

"That's right." Xingba Rang sighed, "But the other side actually proposed a team competition. In this case, even if Mr. Ashiya can defeat the other side alone, it will be useless. But for us, it should be considered beneficial. After all, we have a great chance of winning the two points in the final battle. In this case, we only need to win one of the first three games."

Qian Xiaoyi said: "You have full confidence in the old man~"

Xingchang Rang said, "Let me put it this way. The old man has been in the business for so many years, and he has only failed once. No one dares to say that they can surpass him in this regard. With his rich experience in exorcism and deep family background, he is the undisputed strongest among all the exorcists in Japan. There is no dispute about that."

"That's amazing~" Qian Xiaoyi whistled.

They walked out of the alley while chatting. The street was still bustling at this time, but Xingchang Rang keenly noticed that there were many more thugs with weapons in their hands on the street, looking at passers-by with impatience on their faces.

"It's someone from the arcade." Xingchang Rang lowered his voice and said, "Is it really the Jidao?"

Inuyama Heita couldn't help but ask: "They seem to be looking for us, what should we do?"

"What can we do? Of course we just walk over there." Qian Xiaoyi said, "Just pretend nothing happened."

There was nothing wrong with Qian Xiaoyi and Xing Changrang's attire. Qian Xiaoyi looked like a strolling tourist, while Xing Changrang's hip-hop attire and faintly visible tattoos made him look like a regular in this place, so the thugs didn't even give them a second glance.

Instead, Inuyama Heita, who was in uniform, was teased by some yakuza. "Hey, kid, you're here at this time, are you here to have fun?"

"Hahaha~ Don't scare him~"

"This is a place suitable for adults. Come back when you grow up."

Inuyama Heita followed Qian Xiaoyi and Xingchang Rang with his head down, still feeling a little nervous. These people were different from the little hooligans he had met before, they were real gang members.

Only when they walked out of the street did Inuyama Heita breathe a sigh of relief.

"Monsters are actually mixed with the underworld..." Xingchang Rang complained, "Mr. Qian, you really found us a very troublesome opponent this time. It's okay to deal with those simple ghosts, but those guys are a violent group that will fight at the slightest disagreement. Exorcists who dare to oppose them may be threatened with physical harm, so no one will dare to stand up."

Qian Xiaoyi said: "So the old man's connections are necessary. Only by letting him fight head-on will the other party be afraid and dare not take action in reality, but instead use the rules of the underworld to deal with it."

"You're too cunning, aren't you?" Xingchang Rang muttered, then said seriously, "Next, we have to find the opponent's true form, right? It was the same when we successfully defeated Lai Shan. If we hadn't cut off the source of his power in reality, he wouldn't have been so easy to defeat. The infinite resurrection alone is enough to give us a headache."

Qian Xiaoyi said: "Don't worry, the enemies this time are probably not like Lai Shanchenggong, who can't be killed no matter how hard you try. They are just doing the dirty work for the big guys behind the scenes. Their status is not as high as Lai Shanchenggong. After all, Lai Shanchenggong has a list of the interest groups in his hands."

Xing Changrang said: "I hope so~ I will also send someone to inquire about them. We still have a week to see if we can find their real bodies."

"Then I'll leave it to you." Qian Xiaoyi said, "In terms of connections, I'm far inferior to you."

"That's all." Xingchang Rang waved his hand and said, "I'm going back first. I'll contact you when I have news."

He waved down a taxi and left Kabukicho.

Qian Xiaoyi and Inuyama Heita also rode their motorcycles and headed towards their home.

When they arrived at Inuyama Heita's apartment, Inuyama Heita, who was about to leave, suddenly asked: "Brother Oto, the true form of that monster... should be Mr. Zhang and the Sword Transmission Society he belongs to, right? Why didn't you tell Mr. Hoshiba and Mr. Ashiya about this news directly? Instead, let them investigate it themselves?"

He had wanted to ask himself this question since he left Kabukicho: Isn't this a unnecessary step and a waste of time?
"This is a little...personal matter." Qian Xiaoyi replied vaguely: "Besides, this information is not important. Even if I don't tell them, they can easily find it out."

Watching Qian Xiaoyi ride away on his motorcycle, Inuyama Heita was still a little confused, but he didn't ask any more questions. After all, everyone has their own secrets.
