Chapter 70 I am a Blood Dive

"Manager, where have you been again?"

Inside the coffee shop, Zhantu asked calmly while holding a cup of freshly brewed coffee.

Ishido Soichi waved his hand and showed his usual gentle smile: "I'm going to work."

"work to earn a living?"

"After all, the coffee shop business isn't very good, and I have to find a way to maintain the daily expenses here."

Ishido Soichi spoke in a relaxed tone, walked behind the counter, and skillfully packed up the things in the store, as if it was just an ordinary thing.

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with the coffee shop closing early."

Zhan Tu said casually, picking up the coffee and taking a sip: "My coffee skills are getting better and better, almost as good as Aqiao."

"I've always been a great coffee drinker, I just wanted to innovate. As for the matter of closing the coffee shop, what do you mean?"

Apart from the money occasionally brought back by Ishido Soichi, the main support comes from the live broadcast income of Onoue Takumi and Misora.

“This place feels like home to me.”

Zhan Tu was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Ishido Soichi. The smile on his face was still warm.

"Actually, I really like to say welcome back to you all who have returned from battle."

"Every time you open this door, it makes me feel like we are truly a family."

Battle Rabbit looked at the store manager's smile and didn't know what to say. His heart was suddenly touched, and for a moment he didn't know whether to doubt the store manager's intentions.

Just then, the phone on the table vibrated, and a call broke the silence. Zhantu picked up the phone and glanced at the caller ID on the screen. It was Nabeshima calling.

"Hey?"

Battle Rabbit answered the phone, his tone filled with confusion.

The voice of Nabeshima came from the other end of the phone, his tone was quick and low: "There is something I must tell you, about..."

Seeing Zhantu's serious expression, Ishido Soichi was about to step forward when Onoue Takumi's voice came from behind: "Welcome back, Manager."

"Aqiao, your appearance was so scary, without making any sound at all!"

"It's not that I suddenly appeared, it's that you weren't paying attention here."

"Ok?"

"Didn't you just say that you like to say welcome back the most?"

With a bright smile, Onoue Kyou gave a thumbs-up and looked at Ishido Soichi: "I like to say welcome back to you too."

Although he knew that this was Onoue Takumi's usual sarcastic tone, Ishido Soichi was still a little unhappy inside: "Are you trying to be funny?"

"I thought the store manager just liked to be funny like this."

Ignoring the conversation between the two, Sento ended his conversation and slowly shifted his gaze to Ishido Soichi. The latter raised his head and met Sento's gaze head-on.

The store manager still had that harmless smile on his face and spoke in his usual tone, "Battle Rabbit, what's wrong? What did you hear on the phone?"

"Nabeshima said there's someone behind the scenes."

Ooue glanced at Zhantu, as if he noticed something was wrong with him, but he didn't say anything.

He slowly sat down on a chair beside him, picked up a glass of water on the table, lowered his head and took a sip. As usual, nothing happened.

Ishido Soichi was tidying up things in the coffee shop as usual, and soon turned around and left, humming an unknown tune.

As he closed the door, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became quiet.

Zhantu watched Ishido Soichi's departing back, tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times, and finally couldn't help but say, "Aqiao, you already knew this, right?"

Ooue Takumi, who was getting dressed, asked casually, "Know what?"

"The identity of the store manager."

"I just had some suspicions, but I didn't investigate further." "Why?" Battle Rabbit frowned, looking a little puzzled: "If you really suspected it, why didn't you tell us?"

Hearing this, Ooue Takumi slowly walked to the door and said, "Are you afraid of hearing the real answer?"

These words hit Zhantu's heart like a heavy hammer, and he fell into silence.

He didn't know if he was ready to face the truth.

He couldn't accept for a moment that the person who had provided them with shelter and help might actually be their enemy.

Turning back and smiling, Onoue Takumi tapped Sento with his fist: "You need to confirm this matter yourself. If you don't face it yourself, you won't be able to truly face the battle in the future."

"Aqiao, what are you doing outside?"

"I'm going to the Dongdu Materials Research Institute once."

"Hasn't that place been abandoned long ago?"

“To help Utsumi, I made a deal with Namba Heavy Industries, and now it’s time to fulfill the agreement.

When he heard about Namba Heavy Industries, Zhantu's face changed, but he didn't know how to start.

Seeing Battle Rabbit's appearance, Onoue Qiao laughed and pushed the door open to leave: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. Besides, there is indeed a hidden danger that needs to be eliminated."

An hour later, the Dongdu Materials Research Institute had been abandoned and was surrounded by desolate scenery.

Onoue Takumi walked alone in the empty corridor, his footsteps remarkably clear in the silence. His gaze was calm and focused, scanning his surroundings as if searching for something.

He soon stopped and stood in the central hall of the institute. He raised his head and stared at the empty area in front of him. A beam of energy slowly condensed in his palm.

"Just let me see what's hidden here."

As the energy beam shot out, a faint vibration suddenly echoed through the air. The empty scene before him rippled like water, as if a transparent curtain had been torn apart and slowly peeled away.

The next second, a huge device appeared.

It was a terrifying mechanical device, made entirely of black and silver metal. Its shape was like a giant hand with its five fingers spread out, as if it could grasp the sky.

The surface of the device is covered with complex patterns and flickering spots of light, exuding a cold aura.

"This is the legendary Enigma."

Ooue Qiao murmured softly, his eyes darkening slightly.

The Enigma, this super-parallel device capable of fusing multiple worlds, now stood quietly before him. Its existence was both the pinnacle of this world's scientific creation and the embodiment of destruction.

Onoue Takumi slowly approached, his fingers tracing the cold surface of the device, sensing the abyssal energy fluctuations. His gaze grew increasingly solemn, and the image of Mogami Kuixing's mad plan surfaced in his mind.

Just then, a slight sound of wind came from behind him.

Ooue Takumi frowned slightly, moved his body slightly, turned around quickly, and faced the visitor with a cold look.

The person standing in the shadows walked out slowly. It was a man in a black lab coat, with a dangerous and oppressive aura.

"I didn't expect someone would find this place." The man spoke in a low, hoarse voice, with a hint of nonchalance: "Who are you?"

"Are you the Supreme Kuixing?"

"Yes, I am the Supreme Kuixing. Then who are you?"

Ooue Takumi blinked and said, "My name is Xue Qian."

"Xue Qian? I don't remember him looking like this."

"Have you forgotten my abilities?"

Onoue Takumi raised his palm slightly, and the force of material reorganization surged instantly.

I saw an iron rod next to him twisting and deforming rapidly under his control, the metallic luster flashing in the air, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a sharp metal sword, emitting a cold light.

"On behalf of Namba Heavy Industries and Faust, I am here to deal with you, the traitor."
