Chapter 208 Gods, Gods, please bless me

The citrus family is quite large, including oranges, tangerines, mandarins, lemons, and more, and citrus fruits can be enjoyed in different seasons throughout the year. Among them, kumquats are available from November until May of the following year. With advancements in technology and global trade, they can also be found out of season, though at a higher price.

The Japanese custom is to eat tangerines in winter, as that's when they're in season. It's quite unusual for Uesugi to go out and buy tangerines to treat Lu Mingfei and his companions during typhoon season.

Japanese fruit is expensive and tastes ordinary, so Uesugi Koshi naturally wouldn't waste his money on it. He found someone in the chat group to exchange some with him on the street.

Uesugi distributed the oranges, and Caesar and Chu Zihang immediately ate their portions, while Lu Mingfei kept his oranges as a precious offering.

He placed the oranges in a porcelain dish meant for side dishes and put it on a high place.

"What are you doing?" Uesugi Kotsushi asked.

"I pray for divine protection!" Lu Mingfei replied.

Which deity do you pray to for protection?

"God, Guanyin Bodhisattva, Heaven..." Lu Mingfei answered with a devout expression.

“You’ve prayed to so many gods, but your heart isn’t sincere. None of them will protect you,” Uesugi Kotetsu said.

"Pray first. How will you know if you don't pray? If you don't bless me, so be it. There are so many gods, if one doesn't work, there's always another," Lu Mingfei said.

"..."

Uesugi Echizen, a Catholic, could only shake his head.

Having heard Lu Bian in the chat group say that the protagonist of his world, Lu Mingfei, is a god-like person, he now has a deeper understanding of the meaning of this "god-like person".

At 10 p.m., the ramen shop closed for the day, and Uesugi Kotsugu prepared three brown paper envelopes containing the wages for Lu Mingfei and the other two for the day.

Uesugi gave them daily wages.

"This is?"

With his eyes shining, Lu Mingfei took the kraft paper envelope from Uesugi Yue's hands and immediately tore it open to see how much money was inside.

"Based on Tokyo's minimum hourly wage of 1113 yen for part-time work, you've worked six hours today..."

"Wow~!"

"Thank you so much, boss!! You're so generous!!"

"Six hours? I feel like it's been more than six hours," Caesar said.

"Boss, don't be so petty. Getting paid for six hours is already pretty good," Lu Mingfei said.

"We open for business at 11:30 a.m. and close at 9:30 p.m., shutting down at 10 p.m. There are no customers after 2 p.m., and it only gets busy again around 6 p.m., but customer traffic drops significantly after 8 p.m...."

“Boss, boss, you don’t need to say anything more, you’ve already been very generous…” Lu Mingfei interrupted Uesugi Yue’s petty calculations.

"..."

Caesar pulled out the banknotes from the parchment envelope; it was the first time he had ever received so little money. But he was in a good mood, because it was the reward for a day's physical labor, and it felt more solid than the money he had earned in the two days he worked as a cowherd.

"I'm off work, want to come grab a couple of drinks with me?" Uesugi Kotsushi asked.

"Isn't this not good?"

“Your principal asked me to take care of you; this is just one part of the deal,” Uesugi Kotetsu said.

"We have to go," Caesar said, putting his arm around Lu Mingfei's shoulder, then turning to look at Chu Zihang. Chu Zihang nodded in agreement, and the three of them were now in agreement.

Uesugi Koshi's motorcycle was carrying four people, which was seriously overloaded. However, with his years of experience as a driver, Uesugi Koshi managed to evade Tokyo traffic police and street cameras, and drove the three of them to his favorite izakaya.

"Whoa~!!"

Drinking cheap beer and eating expensive, small portions of yakitori skewers, nothing seemed right, but Lu Mingfei felt a sense of freedom. He really wanted to be an ordinary person, content with working hard and earning some money.

"Did the principal tell you what his plan is?" Chu Zihang asked Uesugi Yue.

“What plan does that guy Angers have? He can only wait for the gods to awaken and then kill the gods who have taken action – that’s a passive plan,” Uesugi Kotsushi said.

"So we don't have to do anything?" Caesar asked. "Then what do you want to do?" Uesugi asked, looking at Caesar.

There was fire burning in Caesar's eyes.

“We will launch a retaliatory attack against the Snake Clan,” Caesar said.

Caesar looked at Chu Zihang, and Chu Zihang offered Caesar silent support.

"What happened? Why are you seeking revenge?" Uesugi Kotsushi asked.

"Not to mention installing nuclear weapons on our manned deep-sea submersibles, what about after we come ashore from the sea..."

Caesar earnestly recounted their ordeal to Uesugi Koshi. A girl named Shin lost her life because of them. They first met Shin when they arrived in Japan, when Genji took them to see how the main family dealt with protection money issues in a street in Shinjuku.

"Oh."

"Do you believe that the group of crazy bikers was arranged by the main family?" Uesugi Echigo asked.

“I can’t think of any other force besides the Snake Clan that could know so much about us in Japan,” Caesar said.

“Yes,” Uesugi Kotsushi said.

"have?!"

“Yes, the Demon Clan, which is the counterpart to the Snake-Headed Eight Families. The so-called Demon Clan is actually composed of the shadows of the Snake-Headed Eight Families,” Uesugi Kotsuki said.

"It seems to me that the one who arranged for the Bosozoku to do things is not the Sheqi Hachike, but the Menggui Clan."

“You, who are completely unaware of the current situation in Japan, are the easiest to be exploited.”

"Then why can't I suspect that you're trying to exonerate your son, Genjiro, and maintain a good image for him in front of us?" Caesar said.

“Genjiro doesn’t need it.”

"And he is not the child I care about most."

"Who is that? Does Genjiro have any brothers or sisters?" Caesar frowned.

"Yeah, there is."

"I have a younger brother and a younger sister."

“My intuition tells me that his brother is leading a group of demons to fight against him, and neither of the brothers is a good person.”

“But I only care about my sister,” Uesugi Etsu said.

"younger sister……?"

Lu Mingfei suddenly shivered.

He suddenly remembered his time at sea.

The head of the Uesugi family, dressed as a witch...

wrong!

Could it be that! !

"My daughter is the current head of the Uesugi family, but she was pitifully used as a weapon..."

Lu Mingfei lowered his head little by little.

It turns out he had seen the boss's daughter before. Not only had he seen her, he had even held her...

"Um!?"

"Lu Mingfei, what's wrong?" Uesugi Yue suddenly noticed Lu Mingfei's unusual behavior.

"I... I'm not feeling well," Lu Mingfei forced a smile.
