Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 417: Blind Girl and New Target
“Don’t miss it if you pass by. Tonight at 8 o’clock, the Scorpio Church will hold a large mass ceremony at the Yoyogi Gymnasium.

Anyone who converts to the church can enter the Yoyogi Gymnasium for free to attend mass and enjoy the blessing of the God of Scorpio based on their status as a believer.

In addition, His Holiness the Emperor of Tokyo will also attend the mass ceremony to witness the first large-scale ceremony held by the Scorpio Church. If those who have not joined the church do not want to miss this opportunity, they can come and join now.

A warm reminder: currently, not only is there no charge for joining the church, but you can also receive daily necessities such as rice, flour, grain, oil, eggs, etc.

Scorpio Cult has established business relationships with major supermarket chains in Tokyo, and all gifts are of guaranteed quality~"

Three days have passed since the establishment of the Scorpio Cult. From the beginning, Broly and others personally went to the streets to distribute leaflets, and now through the relationship between Sheng Tianzi and Sima Weizhi, they have formed business cooperation with major supermarket chains in Tokyo.

Promotional posters have been posted in all major supermarkets. Urban residents who are willing to join the Scorpio Church can receive the Scorpio Church’s membership benefits in these supermarkets.

Of course, the distribution of flyers on the streets did not stop. Sima Weizi invested 2 million yuan in publicity.

The unemployed Chishou Natsuyo is currently wearing the vest clothes prepared by Sima Chonggong for the Scorpio Cult, and handing out cleric leaflets on the street.

After the death of promoter Ikuma Masakabu, Chishou Natsuyo became a marginal figure in the Mishima Royal Guard Company. If she had not received an invitation from the Holy Residence a few days ago to attend a private banquet for the Holy Emperor at the Council Hall, she might have been driven out to the outer city area.

However, things are much better now, because she had transferred from Mishima Security Company to Tendo Office the day before yesterday.

Although she has not been assigned a new promoter yet, the Tendo Agency has given her a new job, which is to distribute flyers for the Scorpio Church.

Also distributing flyers with her were some other Initiate girls, who were children who had achieved perfect gastrula transformation through the healing technique cast by Aqua herself.

However, compared to ordinary people handing out flyers, the location where a group of girls with red eyes and alienated limbs were handing out flyers made many passers-by stay away.

Although the new law of the original intestine has been implemented, the public's acceptance of the cursed child is still not high, and the girls are more or less frustrated.

"Aqua-sama took us in, but we can't help Aqua-sama do anything."

"How about we change into doll costumes? As long as we can't see our eyes and the abnormal parts of our bodies, other people won't be afraid of us."

"No, if we are not confident and dare not show up, then the Scorpio Church's doctrine of not discriminating against the children of the curse would be just like a fraud, wouldn't it?"

"Then tell me, what should we do?"

"Xia Shi, you have the best brain, what do you think we should do?"

Chishou Natsuyo pondered and was just thinking of a way to improve the failure of flyer distribution when he suddenly heard a nervous apology.

"I'm sorry, my board accidentally hit you."

"Ha, is an apology useful? You've made my clothes dirty."

Not far away, on the pedestrian bridge, a hoodlum-like yellow-haired young man stood in front of a girl and loudly scolded her.

"Tell me, how are you going to take responsibility?"

"I can help you with the laundry."

"Wash your dirty hands?"

The young man sneered and then spoke loudly.

"But I'm not the kind of person who would make things difficult for a child. How about this? Give me the money you have as the dry cleaning fee for my dirty clothes."

"Ah, this..."

The girl, wearing only a dirty patched dress, looked embarrassed.

"Why, can't it?"

There were passers-by who saw the situation. Although they were a little disgusted by the yellow-haired young man trying to get money from the begging girl, no one came to stop him.

"Then can you leave some for me? If I can't beg for money today and go home, my sister and I will have nothing to eat."

"Okay, I'll give you some change."

As the yellow-haired young man said this, he broke off the pull ring on the drink can in his hand and threw it into the begging bowl of the girl in front of him. The pull ring made a crisp sound in the bowl, and he reached out to take the thousand-yuan bill in the girl's hand.

"stop!"

Just then, someone stopped him.

"You are a bunch of little monsters. I advise you to mind your own business!"

The yellow-haired young man was startled. When he turned around and saw that there was only a group of girls with red eyes, he started scolding them.

"Let go and give me the money."

Then he urged the girl in front of him.

"Don't give it to him. He didn't give you change. What he threw into your bowl was just the pull ring of a can."

"So what? Who let her dirty my clothes?"

"The cardboard on her body was placed horizontally in front of her body, how could it have hit you? It was obviously you who bumped into it on purpose!"

Chishou Natsuyo pointed it out. When they were distributing flyers at this place yesterday, they had already seen the girl singing on the overpass.

It's just that he didn't communicate with the other party. When he saw her being troubled by the street urchin, he came over to help.

"Damn~"

The noise started to get louder, and passers-by walking on the overpass cast their eyes over here.

The yellow-haired young man was somewhat angry and embarrassed.

He raised his hand, ready to slap the blind girl in front of him who was holding on to the money.

But, the next moment...

"Clap~"

The man was slapped in the face first. The one who did it was an Initiator girl with alienated organs.

"You dare to hit me?"

Covering his swollen face, the yellow-haired young man was somewhat incredulous, as if he couldn't believe that a wild dog on the roadside would dare to actively attack humans.

"You wanted to rob me, so what's wrong with me hitting you?"

"You red-eyed monsters, do you believe me? I'll call the police now and have them come and arrest you?!"

"We are so scared, but sorry, we have a certificate."

Chishou Natsuyo showed the Initiator's certificate in his hand and the Scorpio Cult's publicity permit.

When we were handing out flyers yesterday, there were passers-by who called the police, but the police who came were eventually persuaded to leave.

It was just a weak threat from a street urchin and there was no way it could scare them.

The new method of the original intestine is being implemented, and the Scorpio Cult has emerged. The future is destined to be different. Chishou Natsuyo has already realized this.

"Do you still want to be beaten?"

The girl who had taken action raised her hand. The yellow-haired man was frightened. The danger of the cursed children was not only the enterovirus in their bodies, but also their physical fitness that was superior to that of ordinary people.

"Remember this!"

But it would be too embarrassing to be a coward, so this man ran away in shame after making some harsh words.

"Are you OK?"

Chiju Natsuyo looked at the girl.

"Nothing, thank you very much."

The girl bowed and thanked him.

"Can't you see?"

The starter girls, seeing the bandages on each other's faces, asked about it.

"Well, my mom didn't like the color of my eyes, so I put some lead in them."

The girl took off the bandage on her face, revealing a pair of grayish-white pupils.

"Are you... also a child of the curse?"

"I'm sorry, did my eyes scare you?"

The blind girl quickly apologized.

"No, it's just that, aren't you a kid from the outer city?"

Chishou Natsuyo asked.

"Not really, but I do live closer to the outer city."

Compared with other cursed children who have no idea who their parents are, the blind girl is undoubtedly luckier because she was not abandoned by her biological mother.

But she was also a little unfortunate because her mother blamed the girl for all the misfortunes she had experienced, so she was not very kind to her.

"Although my mother is usually a bit harsh to me and my sister, as long as I can beg for money outside, she will be nicer to us."

The blind girl told her story and she was very grateful to have the help of Chiju Natsuyo and others today.

The situation of her family is just a microcosm of the slum area in the Tokyo Safety Zone, close to the outer city.

People living in those places don't pay so many attention to details in their daily lives. It is common for pregnant women to accidentally eat food or drink water carrying enterovirus and give birth to cursed children.

Worse still, some people deliberately eat food contaminated with enterovirus just to get rid of their babies.

Most of these people are people in certain special professions who sell their bodies for a living and make this choice in order to save money on contraception.

Of course, there are some families there who are unwilling to give up their children. Although their number is not large, they do exist.

However, most of them did not live very well, and the blind girl's mother was the woman who was unwilling to give up her child at the beginning.

But the pressure brought by time and environment has changed a lot.

"Do you want me to sing a song for you?"

the blind girl asked, it was the only thing she could give in return.

"If possible, I would like to recommend the Scorpio Cult to you."

"what is that?"

"A religion does not discriminate against the religion of the cursed children."

Chishou Natsuyo stressed.

"I'm sorry, I don't really understand what religion is."

The blind girl looked confused.

"Well, to put it simply, as long as you are willing to join the Scorpio Cult, you can get some eggs, rice, or other food from us."

"Well, I've already received your help, I can't ask for anything more."

"This is not a request, this is a transaction. You only need to offer your faith to the God of Scorpio, or you can say gratitude, to get these things. And these things are not ours, they belong to the Scorpio Church. We are just preaching for the God of Scorpio."

“Is just gratitude enough?”

"Correct."

"Can it help you too?"

"Yes."

"Okay, then I'd like to join."

The blind girl touched the application form for joining the church handed to her by Chiju Natsuyo and signed her name on it. Before she had lead poured into her eyes, she was taught to write by her mother.

Although it can't be seen now, the handwriting is still very beautiful.

"This is an egg."

"This is rice." "This is candy."

"We'll get you a bag."

The starter girls were very enthusiastic and they finally opened their business.

"Oh, thank you, but there are too many things. I may not be able to take them all."

The blind girl thanked him, feeling a little flattered.

"It doesn't matter. Wherever your home is, we'll take you back and help deliver these things to you."

The starter girls send the blind girl home, but her mother happens to be working at home.

The creaking and panting sounds coming from the dilapidated house made the initiator girls who came here and heard the sounds blush.

"Is this what your mother does?"

"My mother worked very hard. She had to support herself, me and my sister."

When the guests came out, they saw a group of red-eyed girls with different limbs outside the door and were somewhat frightened.

"damn it!"

The guest cursed, and the woman inside heard the noise and came out, also startled.

"We are here to deliver welfare to the new believers."

Before the woman could scold her daughter, Chishou Natsuyo spoke first.

"Welfare?"

The woman was a little confused.

"Rice, flour, grain, oil, and eggs. These are the benefits your daughter received after joining the Scorpio Church. I wonder if you would like to learn more about our sect?"

"I've never heard of the Scorpio Cult. My family doesn't welcome members of cults."

The woman, who looked unwell but still had some looks, said so.

"We are not a cult. We are a formal religious sect recognized by the government."

Senju Natsuyo took out a copy of the religious approval and showed it to the woman.

"If you are willing to join, you can also get a portion of rice, flour, grain, oil and eggs."

she said again.

The woman, who was penniless and now barely survived by selling her body, lit a cigarette and said, "My family has no money."

"It doesn't cost money. As long as you are willing to join, you will get something."

"I have a daughter too. If she joins, you will have something to give her, right?"

The woman pointed at her little daughter and asked.

"of course."

Qianju Natsuyo nodded.

After the blind girl's mother, joined by her other daughter, she told them about the Scorpio mass tonight at the Yoyogi Gymnasium.

"It's not some evil cult ritual, like bleeding someone to death?"

the woman asked warily.

"I've already mentioned that our Scorpio Cult is not a cult."

The Initiate girls immediately protested, but they were still a little naive and overestimated Aqua's bottom line as a god.

Aqua has prepared a full box of enterovirus injections.

"Then are there any benefits to be gained by attending that mass?"

"Have."

The woman hesitated for a moment before asking, "Then if I help you recruit people, can your sect pay me?"

"I have to ask this."

Chishou Natsuyo took out his cell phone and made a call.

Soon, I got a reply.

"We give money, 1,000 yen per person. If we can get people to attend mass, we'll give an extra 500 yen per person."

Religion spreads more easily in areas of suffering, and if there are benefits to joining the religion and money to be made by recruiting people to join the religion, the speed of the spread will become extremely terrifying.

. . . .

Holy Residence, Council Chamber, hotline customer service staff.

"Alas, most of these calls are either unreachable or not from the real owner."

The man complained while holding the list of people joining the church.

"Who says it's not true? They are all trying to take advantage of the situation."

The person on the other side also sighed.

"I don't know if we will be punished if there are less than 200 people there at night."

"I don't think so. After all, this is not our responsibility."

"Not necessarily. I heard that the Scorpio Cult is actually a move by the Holy Emperor. If things don't go well, he may blame us."

"That night, shall we bring our families over to show our support to the Scorpio Cult for His Excellency the Holy Emperor?"

"It can only be the."

"Do you have to be so exaggerated?"

The young man sitting on the right seat was a little surprised.

"For big shots, they may not know who went to show their support, but if someone didn't go and show their support, they would be in trouble if they were discovered."

Just as the hotline customer service staff were discussing going to support the event, some calls suddenly came in.

"What, is the mass ceremony at Yoyogi Stadium tonight real? Ah, yes, it is real. That's right, the name of the sect is Scorpio Sect."

"Is there anything I can take? Well, there should be something, but we don't know what it is. This is what Scorpio taught me to do."

"What's going on? Why are there suddenly so many people calling to inquire about the mass?"

“Well, the areas that are calling are all living areas close to the outer city.”

"I see. This is the place where the Scorpio Cult has preached to and wants to take advantage of others the most."

Hearing this, a group of hotline operators looked at each other in confusion.

"Report it. If the number of people exceeds the expected number of participants..."

Large-scale religious ceremonies need to be planned and arranged in advance. Aqua decided to perform a miracle on the spur of the moment, but behind the scenes there are many people who need to take action for her decision.

"Sir, the number of people willing to attend the mass has exceeded two thousand. For your personal safety, should we cancel this meeting?"

Now, Tendou Mugen, who is the personal guard of the Holy Emperor, asked about it. They received information from the Osaka area the day before yesterday.

The president of the Osaka region, Saitake Munehara, proposed to visit the Tokyo Safety Zone, but his intentions were somewhat hostile.

"The news that someone wants to assassinate me is groundless after all. Even if it is true, with Broly and Aqua-sama here, do you think they will let anything happen to me?"

Tendouki thought about it further and nodded, acknowledging this.

Tonight, the Holy Emperor's schedule remains the same and he will go to Yoyogi Gymnasium to pay his respects.

. . . .

"I'm in Tokyo now. Where should I go to find you?"

In the afternoon, Tina arrived in Tokyo with a bag of activity funds in her hand and sent a message on her mobile phone.

"Come to Yoyogi Gymnasium, I'm right here."

"Yoyogi Gymnasium?"

Tina quickly hailed a taxi and told it her destination.

"To Yoyogi Gymnasium."

"Are you going to Mass, too?"

"What Mass?"

"The Scorpio Mass. This religion has suddenly appeared in the past few days. There are propaganda about this sect everywhere in the city."

"Hey, is the Scorpio Church so famous?"

"It is famous, but not a good reputation. I heard that this religion is advocating the idea of ​​rendering the enterovirus harmless."

"The original enterovirus is rendered harmless?"

Tina was a little confused, not understanding how the two words "enterovirus" and "harmless" were put together.

"Yes, there are many rumors among the people now, saying that this is a religious organization specially promoted by the Holy Emperor in order to promote the new method of original intestine."

"Hey, Holy Son, new method for raw intestine?"

"Why, my little guest, don't you know the new way of making raw sausage?"

“I’ve heard of it, but I don’t quite understand it.”

"Let me tell you, the new method of raw intestine is..."

The driver was quite talkative and told the story of the new method of cooking raw intestines proposed by the Holy Emperor more than half a year ago.

"It was just a minor incident before, but this time it's a big deal. I heard that they are planning to use the influence of Scorpio's resolution to thoroughly implement the new method of the original intestine, and the Scorpio Church is the first batch of pioneers..."

Tina got out of the car with mixed feelings. She didn't expect that the target she wanted to assassinate was actually fighting for human rights as a child of the curse.

Shaking her head, Tina decided not to think about it. She took out her phone and edited the message again and sent it out: "I'm already at the entrance of Yoyogi Gymnasium. Where are you?"

"I'm here, you are Nightingale?"

The sudden voice behind her startled Tina.

Turning her head, Tina saw the boy approaching.

"Little kid brother?"

"I'm not a kid brother, my name is Broly."

"Nightingale is just my online name. I am..."

"Tina Sprunt, right?"

"how do you know?"

Tina's eyes widened.

"Crystal Palace told me."

Broly originally came to welcome netizens, but he didn't expect that after seeing the girl at the entrance of the stadium, Crystal Palace popped up a prompt message.

[Discovered new strategy target, Tina Sprunt, current happiness value is 35]
