My avatar is becoming the final boss

Chapter 104 Gu Wenyu: Brother, my sister said she is an exorcist (asking for monthly tickets)

On the morning of July 17th, at the Roppongi Grand Hotel.

After learning about the "Mirror World" from Blue Arc, Black Pupa slid smoothly back into his hotel room. He removed his restraints, closed his eyes, and lay on the bed for a while.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door in the hotel corridor, followed by Gu Zhuo'an's hoarse voice:

"Wenyu, do you know where Qiye went?"

Ji Minghuan rolled over and lay on the pillow. He yawned, smacked his lips, and said in a sleepy voice, "Brother? He should go for a morning run. He usually has the habit of doing it."

Yes, yes, morning jogging, the kind of morning jogging that is as fast as lightning, it is fucking scary.

He added mentally.

Gu Zhuoan was silent for a moment. "Is that so?" He paused. "When Qiye comes back, tell him I have something to tell him. Ask him to wait for me at the hotel."

"oh oh……"

While responding like this, Ji Minghuan was thinking in his heart: "Dad, you are not planning to reveal your identity to big brother, are you... Don't affect the morale of the army at this time. If big brother knew that you are Gui Zhong, how would he have the mind to prepare for the auction in a few days?" Thinking of this, a new sound of footsteps was heard in the aisle.

"Brother?" Relying on the senses of the restraints, Ji Minghuan quickly identified the owner of the footsteps.

In the corridor, Gu Qiye looked up from his mobile phone screen and saw Gu Zhuo'an parked at the door of the room.

Gu Zhuoan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Gu Qiye, with a glimmer in his eyes.

After a long silence, he slowly said, "Qi Ye, are you free? I want to talk to you..."

Gu Qiye looked into his eyes silently, then looked away after a moment and spoke.

"I'm busy. I have plans to go out with friends. We can talk when we get back to China."

After a pause, he said sarcastically, "That's if you hadn't suddenly lost contact by then."

Gu Zhuoan opened his mouth, but could not utter a word. He placed one hand on his waist, lowered his head, and uttered a hoarse voice from his throat:
"Okay, let's talk about it after we get back home."

However, at this moment, with a "click", someone opened the door and came out, jumping between the two of them.

"Dad, brother, do you want to go eat sushi?" Ji Minghuan picked up his phone and showed the two of them a sushi restaurant on Xiaohongshu.

"I……"

Gu Qiye was stunned. He lied to his father and said that he had an appointment with a friend, but he didn't want to refuse his younger brother.

"What do you mean?" Ji Minghuan said gloomily, "You haven't been seen all day. It's a rare visit to Japan, and yet you've only had dinner with me once. I was planning on asking you to treat me to a few more meals."

"Ok."

Looking at his brother's funny expression, Gu Qiye couldn't help laughing.

"Okay... then let's go get sushi. Daddy's treat."

As Gu Zhuoan spoke, he forced a smile on his face and raised his hand slightly to touch Gu Wenyu's hair.

"Uncle Ghost Zhong, could you please stop touching my head? Damn it, you beat me up the night before last and I'm really worried you'll smash my head against the wall any second."

Ji Minghuan smacked his lips and complained secretly.

His feeling was like: the big hand of Buddha was touching Sun Wukong's head, and the monkey's hair was almost pulled out. He was afraid that he would be thrown under the Five Elements Mountain and locked up for hundreds of years.

"Xiao Yu, where is that store?" Gu Qinye asked.

Ji Minghuan put his phone into his trouser pocket and replied, "It's nearby, just a few steps away. I've been there before with my friends and I know the way, so we don't need a map."

"Friend?" Gu Qinye asked curiously.

"That's the young lady you saw on the street before. Have you forgotten her?"

"Oh, that woman..." When he said this, Gu Qiye was suddenly stunned and stopped talking.

He suddenly recalled the night he first arrived in Tokyo, when he had caught a glimpse of the friend Gu Wenyu had mentioned from afar. He had only briefly glanced at the other person, remembering only their attire and not their face.

But now that I think about it, my brother's friend's outfit, the trench coat and beret, is clearly...

Ke...Qi Rui?
This name slowly flashed in Gu Qinye's mind.

He opened his eyes slightly, and his thoughts were in a mess for a moment.

Is Ke Qirui Wen Yu’s friend?
Why... does my brother know her?

For someone who has been living a double life for years, it feels like two completely unconnected worlds have suddenly intersected, a certain order is collapsing, as if two parallel trains are about to collide...

The whole world seemed to be drowned in the sound of the train whistle.

Gu Qiye looked up in surprise and slowly looked at Ji Minghuan who had already walked to the front of the elevator.

"Brother, what are you staring at?" Ji Minghuan waved at him and said unhappily, "Dad's treating us, why don't you hurry up and leave? Will there be another opportunity like this?"

Gu Qiye was stunned for a while, and forced out an unnatural smile:
"coming."

The three of them took the elevator downstairs, left the Roppongi Grand Hotel, and walked for about ten minutes to reach the sushi restaurant.

This sushi restaurant is hidden in a gray building complex in the back alley of Roppongi Hills. A 30-centimeter-wide cypress wood vertical plaque hangs above the stone steps, engraved with the ink-colored lacquer characters "すきやばし吉郎".

The cypress sliding door was pulled with a "clang clang" sound, slid half a meter to the right, and the three of them entered the store.

Ji Minghuan led the father and son to sit at the cypress bar that could seat ten people, then picked up the menu and skillfully ticked the items on it with a pencil. Soon, they had ordered all the dishes.

He knew how rich Ghost Bell and Blue Arc were. A super criminal and a popular idol, their assets could probably buy ten sushi restaurants like this.

So when ordering dishes, they were not vague at all, as if the word "stingy" did not exist in the dictionary.

He looked up and wanted to hand the menu to Gu Qiye and Gu Zhuoan, but seeing that they looked preoccupied, he rolled his eyes and passed the two sultry guys over and handed the menu to the waiter. The waiter took the menu, gave him a sweet smile, and said:

"Sir, the two ladies who accompanied you last time are not here this time."

In order to fit the personality of this body, Ji Minghuan replied in the broken Japanese he learned from TV dramas:

"Uh... Yoshi, those two... those two flower girls are busy talking about love, hello!"

The waiter didn't understand what he said, just smiled and turned away.

Ji Minghuan admired his own social skills. He drank a sip of hot tea, glanced at the stuffy girl sitting on his left, and then looked at the stuffy girl sitting on his right.

The expressions of father and son are very similar.

At this moment, Gu Zhuoan was thinking about how to talk to Gu Qinye and mention the matter of "Blue Arc".

He couldn't just say, "Qi Ye, you are Lan Hu, right?"

Having not communicated with his children for many years, he really couldn't find a starting point for a topic.

On the other side, Gu Qiye was thinking: Why does Ke Qirui know his brother? This is really strange. Is it just a coincidence? In fact, Wen Yu has nothing to do with the world of the exorcists, but this coincidence is too far-fetched.

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Ji Minghuan was kind enough to start a little stimulating topic to liven up the family atmosphere.

He said, "Oh, yeah, I'm telling you, my sister was going crazy with me again the other day."

"Wheat?" Gu Zhuoan glanced at him sideways.

"What's wrong with her?" Gu Qinye asked curiously.

Ji Minghuan sighed, raised his hand to support his cheek, and said nonchalantly:

"She suddenly sent me a voice message on her phone, saying something like 'Brother, I'm actually an exorcist'. Her tone was so serious that I almost wondered if she had gone crazy playing games."

He paused for a moment, then turned to look at Gu Zhuo'an. "Dad, do you think we should take Su Zimai to an internet addiction treatment center after we return home to help him break his addiction?"

However, what responded to him was silence, a deathly silence. Neither Gu Zhuoan nor Gu Qiye spoke. The lines on their faces were tense and their expressions were as stiff as iron.

It was as if two human statues stood on his left and right sides.

Perhaps even Xia Pingzhou's stone statue of the queen is not as lifelike as the father and son - if they participate in a statue imitation competition, they will definitely win first place.

A second later, the father and son came to their senses, and a hint of surprise flashed in their pupils at the same time.

As if they had been electrocuted, unconcealable surprise and shock appeared on their expressions at the same time - this was the first time Ji Minghuan felt that there were similarities between Gui Zhong and Lan Hu.

"Pfft..." Ji Minghuan puffed up his cheeks slightly, took a sip of tea, and tried not to laugh out loud.

"The exorcist?" "She said... the exorcist?"

After a moment of dead silence, the two broke the silence in unison.

Ji Minghuan was stunned for a moment: "Please, why do you look like you want to eat me?"

He nodded and said with a strange look on his face, "Yeah, yeah... I was talking about 'The Exorcist'. Seeing your strange reactions, is this some kind of cult?"

Gu Zhuoan stood there in a daze, his pupils shrank to the size of wheat awns, then he slowly lowered his head and raised his hand to support his forehead.

His face was shrouded in gloom, and he thought to himself, "How could it be, how could it be... the exorcist? Why does Xiaomai know about the exorcist?"

On the other side, Gu Qiye put the back of his hand against his mouth, lowered his face, and stared at the bar table with his eyes moving.

He pondered in awe, "Ke Qirui and Wenyu are friends, and... Wenyu also said that Xiaomai suddenly approached him and told him she was an exorcist? No, it's gotten to this point. This can't be a coincidence."

Thinking of this, Gu Qiye was stunned, as if a bolt of lightning had struck his mind.

He took out his cell phone from his pocket, opened the text messages, looked at the chat history with Hei Pupa, and found one of the records.

[Blue Arc: Let me ask you a question. Who is that girl named Conan? I think she's weird.]

[Black Pupa: It's not a hero's job to pry into a woman's privacy. You'll find out sooner or later.]

His eyes moved up and down, repeatedly examining the line of text written by the black pupa. The text reflected in his pupils seemed to be about to collapse completely.

At this moment, the strange feeling he had when he saw that "Ke Zinan" suddenly flashed through Gu Qiye's mind...

Cold sweat slowly trickled down his forehead as he murmured, "Could it be that... that girl is..."

At this moment, Ji Minghuan raised his eyes from the teacup and quietly looked at Gu Qiye's gloomy face.

He thought, "That's right... Using the identity of Black Pupa to reveal my sister's identity would be suspected of betraying my collaborators, but if I use the identity of Gu Wenyu, there would be no problem."

"Besides, if my sister hadn't been such a jerk herself and told me she was an exorcist, how could an 'ordinary person' like me possibly know about this?"

"You can't blame me, sister. I don't even know what an 'exorcist' is anyway. What's wrong with casually mentioning it in front of my brother and dad? It's not a big deal."

Thinking of this, Ji Minghuan held the edge of the teacup with his mouth and looked around happily.

He entered the "victory settlement interface" as if he was playing a game. After observing Gu Qiye's expression, he turned his head and began to appreciate Gu Zhuoan's expression.

At this moment, Ji Minghuan was suddenly stunned.

Gu Zhuoan rested his hand on his forehead, his elbow trembling slightly as it rested on the bar. His face was covered in dark lines, and his pupils glowed faintly red amidst the shadows.

"It's over. Dad is not going to enter the second stage, right?"

He was horrified.
