When he first entered the hall, Xiao Zheng was stunned by the scene in front of him.
Seven or eight young women in kimonos were dancing in the hall. The movements were slow and elegant, and there was a vaguely eerie atmosphere. In the corner of the living room, a group of young women were playing melodious and melodious music using traditional instruments such as shamisen, shakuhachi, and thirteen-string guzheng. The intersection of the two actually makes people feel peaceful, and their guardedness gradually slows down.
After entering the living room, the group of young women danced and played, but no one greeted Xiao Zheng. Instead, there was a cup of hot tea and some snacks on the table nearby. Seeing this, Xiao Zheng simply sat down and drank tea and snacks. Appreciate the graceful and weird dance posture.
After monitoring outside Ito's villa for half the night, Xiao Zheng was indeed a little tired. After a cup of hot tea, my energy quickly recovers. That was the end of the dance. The young girl leading the dance stepped forward and said in fluent Chinese: "Mr. Xiao, the master is waiting for you upstairs. Please follow me."
Xiao Zheng nodded and followed the girl upstairs.
So far, the only thing he can be sure of is that the other party is from the royal family. He knew nothing about the rest. Even the so-called common goal, Xiao Zheng did not take it seriously.
Since he wanted to kill Ito, why didn't he do it earlier and wait until he came to Tokyo
Xiao Zheng didn't believe this was a coincidence, and was more willing to believe it was a conspiracy.
But let's make peace with it as it comes. There will definitely be no chance to assassinate Ito tonight anyway. If you take a trip here, you may find unexpected gains.
After reaching the second floor, the young girl did not continue moving forward. Instead, she raised her hand slightly, pointed to the door in front, and said softly: "Mr. Xiao, the master is inside."
"Thanks."
After saying that, Xiao Zheng strode forward. His expression seemed calm, but in fact his vigilance rose sharply.
Wow.
As soon as he arrived at the door, the person inside seemed to see Xiao Zheng through the door and slowly opened the door.
The door suddenly opened, and what greeted Xiao Zheng's eyes was an old woman in her sixties. Her body is slightly stooped, her head is full of silver hair, but her face is full of kindness. Seeing Xiao Zheng coming, she raised her eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, please come in."
"Hello." Xiao Zheng smiled and nodded.
Xiao Zheng always maintains awe for his elders. As long as the other party doesn't mess with him, he will show 100% respect.
This is a rather large wing room. As soon as you enter, you are blocked by a screen. The air is filled with elegant sandalwood. It seems like I have returned to ancient times in an instant, with a melodious artistic conception.
From the dance performance downstairs to the elegant environment upstairs, Xiao Zheng believed that the owner of this villa was a very tasteful person.
Of course, as a member of the royal family, even if you have no taste, the courtiers around you will teach you step by step. This is the huge gap between common people and the royal family.
Xiao Zheng walked around the screen. Although his face showed no obvious vigilance, he was extremely cautious in his heart.
From the moment he entered the room, he smelled the scent of strong men. Even though he has not reached the level of a peerless strong man, it is not an exaggeration to describe him as being as strong as a cloud. Even the old lady who is over sixty years old is by no means an ordinary person.
This person from the royal family really has an extraordinary status, and he can lift his weight as lightly as he can!
"Mr. Xiao. Please sit down."
Suddenly. An elegant and gentle voice came from within the gauze-like curtain in front. It's standard Chinese, and you can't even hear the slightest accent.
Just by looking at her voice, Xiao Zhengyue could tell that this woman was not old. At most similar to myself.
Is the woman inside the curtain the master everyone thinks she is
Xiao Zheng was thinking about the other party's identity. He also sat on the chair casually.
The table is prepared with fragrant tea, snacks, and even some exquisite cooked food, which can satisfy all Xiao Zheng's tastes. But in this situation, how could Xiao Zheng eat too much? He just picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He was not afraid of poisoning the other party and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you don't dare to show your true colors to others?"
"Mr. Xiao is joking." The person in the tent smiled and said slowly. "I'm just afraid of scaring Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows, then smiled and said: "Your voice is gentle and soft, and your voice is clear and moving. Could it be that you are ugly and scary?"
The old man who was standing aside with his head bowed heard a look of displeasure in his eyes. But after all, he didn't have an attack, he just looked into the tent with slightly blurred vision. I don't know if I can see the people in the tent.
"Just take it as such." The person in the tent said slowly after a moment of silence. "There are so many beauties around Mr. Xiao. They are all beautiful and fragrant, and they are all beautiful to the country. How can an ordinary person fall under your eyes?"
Xiao Zheng's expression turned cold and he said with stern eyes: "Are you investigating me?"
"Mr. Xiao, there is no need to be angry." The woman in the tent said with a smile, her tone still soft. "After all, we have a mutual friend. She also mentions you from time to time."
"Shang Yao?" Xiao Zheng asked with pursed lips.
"Exactly." The woman in the tent said slowly without hiding anything. "If Miss Shang hadn't provided me with information, I wouldn't have been able to grasp Mr. Xiao's whereabouts."
Xiao Zheng had already guessed that Shang Yao had leaked his whereabouts. Little did he know that this person would say it so openly. Isn't she worried about her revenge on Shang Yao
Or—simply terminate the mission
You know, Shang Yao wants Ito to die. The woman in the tent also wanted Ito to die. Once you make yourself anxious, you can just stop doing it, do something warm and then go home.
"Shang Yao and I only have a cooperative relationship, not friends." Xiao Zheng said in a cold tone.
The woman in the tent smiled and said: "To put it this way, Shang Yao is exaggerating." After a pause, the woman still said in her unique gentle voice. "Mr. Xiao, I want to know when you plan to take action?"
Xiao Zheng asked back: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
"Yes and no." The woman in the tent smiled. "The task is carried out by Mr. Xiao. The success or failure is naturally what Mr. Xiao should consider. Not me. But from my perspective, like Mr. Xiao, I hope that Ito disappears from this world. So - I hope that everything can be done My little effort can increase Mr. Xiao's chances of winning."
Xiao Zheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his eyes and asked, "Since you want Ito to disappear, why don't you do it yourself?"
Since this woman is a member of the royal family and is surrounded by countless strong men, why would she use her own hands to kill Ito
"I'm not afraid of Mr. Xiao's jokes—" the woman in the tent said frankly. "I have no one around me to kill him."
"No one?" Xiao Zheng's eyes flashed, and he raised his hand and pointed at the old man standing by the tent. "If this senior takes the lead, plus the strong men around you, it may not be impossible to kill Ito successfully. Isn't it?"
