Tokyo Knights: The Odd Jobs X Files

Mai Shiranui screamed, her voice trembling with tears, as if she were about to burst into sobs.

Lai Sheng Lei smiled, squatted down and hugged Mai Shiranui, saying to her, "I was just joking to help you relax."

"I'm so tired of this, and you're still joking with me!"

Mai Shiranui hugged Rui Kisugi tightly and cried out, "How am I ever going to get married like this?!"

Aside from the practical things, everything that should and shouldn't have happened has happened. How can she possibly marry someone else after all this?

"Then, I'll marry Ashin."

"Tears of the Next Life" said to Mai Shiranui.

"what?"

Mai Shiranui was stunned, and even forgot to cry.

"I didn't hear you clearly, so I'll say it again."

Lai Sheng Lei wiped away Mai Shiranui's tears: "You should marry Shin."

"I'm marrying Ashin..."

"But you'll have to line up after me and Risha!"

"Later Life Tears" said with a smile.

"what?"

Mai Shiranui was shocked. She could understand being ranked after Rui Kisei, but why was she ranked after Risha?

"Lisha and Ashin are together now."

Lai Sheng Rui whispered into Mai Shiranui's ear, "Since you could sense it last night, tell me yourself, can I handle Shin by myself?"

Mai Shiranui blushed deeply – she had already fainted halfway through last night and couldn't even imagine what Rui Kisei had gone through. Such powerful firepower definitely needed someone to share the burden, otherwise she would die!

"So, is third place okay?"

Tears welled in my eyes as I asked Mai Shiranui in my next life.

Mai Shiranui lowered her head and nodded almost imperceptibly: "Mm..."

Chapter 730 A Paradise on Earth?

Inside the firm, Li Xinshang was unaware that Laisheng Lei had arranged a marriage for him. Of course, Laisheng Ai, who was on her way to school, was also unaware that her generational relationship with her master had become confused.

At this moment, Li Xin was receiving a guest.

"Ah Long, what's the matter that you need me so urgently?"

Li Xin asked Hayabusa.

If Hayabusa hadn't suddenly contacted him, he would probably still be spending time with Raisheng Rui right now. But since it was his good brother who came looking for him, Li Xin had no choice but to put Raisheng Rui aside for the time being and go find his good brother instead.

Hayabusa pulled back his mask to reveal his chin, took a sip of tea, and then said, "Oshin, I've come to you again to ask for your help."

"What is it, Ah Long? Just tell me."

Li Xin answered without hesitation.

If someone else asked for his help, Li Xin would hesitate for a moment, but when Hayabusa asked for his help, Li Xin never refused, because Hayabusa was always ready to help!

Moreover, most of Hayabusa's actions are not for himself but for others, to protect world peace. His level of thinking is far higher than Li Xin's. Li Xin dares not say that he can become a person like Hayabusa, but if Hayabusa offers to help, he will definitely help him.

Hayabusa was somewhat moved by Li Xin's quick agreement and said, "Actually, I'm planning to deal with a child trafficking organization."

"Child trafficking?"

Li Xin clenched his fists, a strong killing intent emanating from him: "Where?"

Li Xin deeply abhorred child traffickers.

A child from a neighboring village was abducted by human traffickers when he was a child.

The child's father left the village to find his child, working odd jobs while searching for him. He didn't return home for more than ten years, and there was no news of him. No one even knew if he was alive or dead.

The child's mother sat alone at the village entrance every day, rushing towards other people's children and shouting "My child, my child!" She became a well-known madwoman in the surrounding area, and her once happy family was destroyed by human traffickers.

Because of this painful lesson, the village chief and Secretary Wang have made the "anti-abduction" education in Shibalipu Village very thorough, so that everyone should shout loudly when they see strange outsiders, and not be afraid of misunderstandings.

Children are the hope of a family, and every family abducted by human traffickers is torn apart.

Those human traffickers have destroyed one family after another; they deserve to die!

Li Xin felt it was his duty to eliminate those heinous human traffickers whose sins, which even the deepest hell could not atone for after death, were beyond redemption.

To Li Xin's surprise, Hayabusa would actually get involved in such matters. He had thought Hayabusa had encountered some demon god that was about to be resurrected, since his constitution made him prone to attracting such things.

Hayabusa said to Li Xin, "Let me tell you slowly, these human traffickers are not simple."

Li Xin listened patiently to Hayabusa's words, and Hayabusa continued, "Do you remember Donovan from before?"

"How could I forget that this matter is related to Donovan, given how little time has passed?"

Li Xin was puzzled.

Ryu Hayabusa nodded: "That guy Donovan has always wanted to create the ultimate bio-human weapon. In addition to using the 'DOA' tournament to deal with Mr. Douglas, he also intends to use it to attract powerful fighters and collect their genes to create the strongest bio-fighters."

Li Xin nodded, then said, "I know that, and then what?"

Hayabusa continued, "Besides this, Donovan actually has another plan, which is to fuse aliens with humans to create real biological weapons. The alien warriors that fused with the 'power of the demon god' are the latest results of this project."

"However, fusing 'demon god power' with a human body is an extremely dangerous thing, with a low success rate. Over the years, Donovan has secretly captured many fighters for experiments, and in the end, he only managed to gather about thirty modified warriors."

"Later, Donovan had a sudden inspiration and felt that using children, whose bodies were still developing and more malleable, as the material for fusion might be more suitable than using adults whose bodies were already fully formed."

Hayabusa heard a cracking sound. He looked at Li Xin, who took a deep breath and said to Hayabusa, "I'm fine, Hayabusa, you can continue."

"Then I'll continue."

Hayabusa continued, "In short, after having this idea, Donovan contacted an organization and bought children from them. Of course, what Donovan wanted was not ordinary children, but children with extremely high physical qualities and naturally strong physiques. Only such children could withstand the modification experiments and have the hope of fusing with the 'power of the demon god'."

"However, the deal was terminated because of Donovan's death. I only found out about this because Mr. Long Wu and I investigated Donovan's secret base and discovered the emails he exchanged with that human trafficking organization."

“But even if the transaction ends, those abducted children will not be able to return to their parents and will still be sold to the next group of people. So Mr. Long Wu and I discussed it and decided to rescue those children.”

Hayabusa explained the whole story to Li Xin, who said, "What else is there to say? Let's set off immediately!"

After Donovan's death, Li Xin left all the follow-up matters to Long Wu and the others, but he never expected there would be such a sequel.

If he didn't know, that would be fine. But now that he does, Li Xin is determined to resolve this matter thoroughly. He must not only rescue the children, but also wipe out the human trafficking organization completely!

Hayabusa could hear the determination in Li Xin's words, and he said to Li Xin, "Alright, in that case, let's get started!"

"it is good!"

Li Xin got up, ready to set off with Hayabusa. Angel, who had been eavesdropping on their conversation, immediately jumped out, threw down her backpack, and said, "Uncle, I want to go too! Let me help!"

Are you trying to help? You just don't want to go to school!

Li Xin could easily guess Angel's thoughts and was about to refuse on the spot, but Angel said, "Those children, like me, were stolen from their parents. I can't go back, and I don't want them to suffer the same fate as me!"

"This……"

Angel's words moved Li Xin.

Yes, Angel was also a child who was captured by "NESTS" for experiments. Because her body was modified, she was unable to return to normal society, and even her memories were erased. She couldn't even remember what her parents looked like.

Although Angel usually pretends to be indifferent, she probably misses her family often in secret...

Angel, with her deepest empathy for trafficked children, certainly doesn't want them to end up like herself.

Thinking of this, Li Xin's heart softened, and he said to Angel, "Okay, Angel, you can come with us."

This time, besides dismantling the child trafficking organization, we also need to rescue those children. I'm afraid that I and Hayabusa, two grown men, can't take care of so many children. Bringing Angel along, even if she can't help with other things, can help take care of the children.

Yay, finally I don't have to go to school! I hope this job lasts a long time!

Angel was inwardly excited, but she kept a straight face and said with a slightly serious expression, "Okay!"

"Let's bring Ayane and Kasumi along too!"

Hayabusa spoke.

Angel complained, "Why do we have to bring them along?"

Those two young vixens didn't lift a finger, so why do they get the same treatment as me?

"Because our opponents this time are also ninjas!"

"That's what Hayabusa replied."

"Ninja?"

Li Xin was surprised. These ninjas were involved in child trafficking?

....................................

Deep in the remote mountains, Li Xin and Hayabusa moved forward at a rapid pace. The rugged mountain path and the overgrown vegetation posed no obstacle to them and could not slow them down at all.

"'Dark Eagle Clan' is a ninja organization that has existed for hundreds of years, with a history no shorter than that of Shinobi Village. They are not affiliated with any daimyo, but exist as a mercenary force. They will fight for anyone as long as they are offered a price that satisfies them."

"Because of years of war, this clan has suffered a great loss of population, so they have been adopting orphans from outside the region for ninja training since a very long time ago."

"Especially after the war, the war created a large number of orphans, which greatly increased the strength of the 'Dark Eagle Clan'."

"However, in recent decades, with the arrival of a peaceful era, fewer orphans have been born, and the members of the 'Dark Owl Clan' have not been able to be replenished enough. So they began to secretly abduct children with good aptitude, erase their memories with secret techniques, and train them to become members of the 'Dark Owl Clan'."

"Their abduction of children is not limited to Japan; they target the entire East Asia, as long as they find a child with good potential."

"Because the business has been industrialized, in addition to abducting children to train themselves, they also provide potential seeds for other organizations."

"When many sects face the predicament of a lack of successors, they will also purchase outstanding successors from them."

"Even the currently rising organization 'Darkness' has a very deep connection with 'Dark Eagle Clan', providing 'Darkness' with many outstanding disciples."

"That's why, when Donovan needed qualified children, he immediately thought of the 'Dark Owls' and ordered a batch of children from them. Because the number was quite large, the 'collection' would take a long time, which is why the 'Dark Owls' had not collected all the children by the time Donovan failed and died."

On the way, Hayabusa explained to Li Xin a ninja organization called "Dark Eagle Clan".

Li Xin grew increasingly furious as he listened, wishing he could immediately find that organization and send them all to meet Buddha.

"This organization has done so many heinous things, doesn't the Japanese government care?"

Li Xin said angrily.

While the "Dark Eagles" also traffic children from other countries, the majority of those trafficked are undoubtedly Japanese children, and the Japanese government has done absolutely nothing about it, which is outrageous.

Hayabusa remained silent, and Li Xin instantly understood.

Clearly, the "Dark Eagle Clan's" business even extended overseas, so the Japanese government could not possibly have been completely unaware of it. The only possibility is that the Japanese government was involved in the "Dark Eagle Clan's" business; otherwise, it's impossible that there would have been no news about so many missing children.

Ha, when it comes to being inhuman, the Japanese government really isn't human at all.

Li Xin and Hayabusa arrived at a hillside and looked down to see a quiet and elegant village with crisscrossing paths.

"Is this the 'Dark Owl Village'?"

Li Xin asked Hayabusa.

"do not know."

Hayabusa shook his head: "Legend has it that the 'Dark Owl Village' is off-limits to outsiders. Once an outsider enters, they will be killed. So no one knows what the 'Dark Owl Village' is really like. I only know that the 'Dark Owl Village' is in this area. Why don't we go in and take a look to confirm? If this is the 'Dark Owl Village,' then we will definitely be met with sharp blades and hidden weapons."

Li Xin nodded and said to Hayabusa, "Then let's go."

The two walked down the hillside to the village entrance. Not only was their journey unimpeded, but they also experienced a leisurely pastoral landscape, completely devoid of the grim atmosphere of a ninja village.

Both Li Xin and Hayabusa looked puzzled, but they continued to move forward.

At this moment, a middle-aged woman dressed in coarse linen clothes with rough skin walked out of the village carrying a hoe. When she saw Li Xin and Hayabusa, she looked surprised: "Who are you? Outsiders?"

Li Xin stepped forward and said to the middle-aged woman, "Auntie, we're camping in the mountains and we've gotten lost. We'd like to rest here for the night. Is that alright? We can pay you."

"Camping? What's that?"

The middle-aged woman initially looked puzzled, then excitedly asked Li Xin, "Is the fighting outside over? Has our great Japan won? Have the American troops been driven back?"

Li Xin was stunned for a moment, and Hayabusa said directly, "We lost the war, the Emperor surrendered, and now America has occupied the outside world. The Japanese have become inferior citizens. We couldn't make a living outside, so we came to the mountains."

Li Xin was shocked. He never expected that Hayabusa, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, could be such a good storyteller!

"Ah...we lost..."

The middle-aged woman was momentarily stunned, and the hoe in her hand fell to the ground.
