Tamamo front club, in a room on the third floor.

Lu Mingfei, Chu Zihang, Yuan Zhisheng and Sakura sat opposite each other.

Solomon's Temple ...... There is such a thing," Yuan Zhisheng nodded slightly, "It's not very surprising that this kind of organization that has lost its conscience will cooperate with the fierce ghosts. ”

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang briefly told Yuan Zhisheng about what they found out about what Solomon's Temple would do when they were in Viana Fort some time ago, and the more sensitive information was omitted by them, and only briefly talked about Solomon's Temple to capture innocent girls, use them as tools to give birth to excellent half-breeds, and conduct black magic and human experiments.

As for the important information that Solomon's Temple will raise dragons to fight, it was hidden by Lu Mingfei, although Chu Zihang didn't have so many eyes, but fortunately, he didn't like to talk about it, so he didn't notice anything unusual.

"The family will do their best to help the two of you complete the task," Yuan Zhisheng said, "But tomorrow I am afraid that Mr. Lu Mingfei will waste a little time, and the heads of the Eight Families of the Snake Qi want to meet you in person to welcome you." ”

"Isn't that a little too grand?" Lu Mingfei was a little embarrassed.

"This is the importance that the family should attach to its guests." Genzhi Shengdao.

Although Yuan Zhisheng said this, in fact, this is indeed a bit too grand, after all, Lu Mingfei is just an S-level freshman, and he is visiting in a private capacity, no matter how he wants all the high-level leaders of the Eight Snake Qi families to greet him.

But the person behind Lu Mingfei is Ange, the legend who once subdued the entire Sheqi Eight Families with his own strength, if Ange came in person, the entire Sheqi Eight Families would come out to "welcome" him, and the specifications were not high.

Therefore, Lu Mingfei, who made this trip, is indeed worthy of being personally received by the eight heads of the family.

……

Late at night, near Genji Heavy Industries, in a luxury hotel, in the presidential suite.

Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang sat on the sofa in the living room.

The source of the child booked them the most luxurious hotel in Tokyo, but because they had to cooperate together to investigate the matter of the fierce ghosts in the future, so at the temporary request of Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang, the residence was changed to a luxury hotel next to Genji Heavy Industries, although it was not as luxurious as the hotel originally booked, but it was more convenient.

As for Su Jiannan's ordinary people, they were naturally sent to the hotel they originally booked.

"Senior brother, why don't we directly outsource the task to the Snake Qi Eight Family?" Lu Mingfei chewed potato chips, "Anyway, they are the head snakes here, and in the face of an organization called the Fierce Ghosts, they are stronger than the two of us in terms of experience and strength." ”

Although he and Chu Zihang are also masters in the mixed race, after all, there are only two people, and they are definitely incomparable to the landlord snake with a big family.

Chu Zihang shook his head: "They may not try their best. ”

"Huh?" Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows, "Senior brother, why did you say that?" ”

"I've encountered a similar situation before, the mission requires me to kill a half-blood who trades in the dark arts, he has no tendency to be Deadpool in blood, he is a fallen alchemist, using the bodies of other half-bloods to refine alchemy items, and then selling them to other shady forces, after I arrived, a local half-blood family approached me and said that I wanted to help, but in fact they were the ones behind the fallen alchemist."

"In the end, I killed the fallen alchemist and sent the patriarch of that family to the local executive department to deal with it," Chu Zi Hangdao said, "Although the mission was completed, that family caused me a lot of trouble in the process of completing the task. ”

"Senior Brother, do you suspect that the relationship between the Eight Snake Qi Families and the Fierce Ghosts is actually not as incompatible as Senior Brother Yuan said, and they are actually making some kind of deal?" Lu Mingfei rubbed his chin, "Although it's not impossible, they are a branch of the academy after all, so they won't do such a thing, right?" ”

"On the way to Japan, I did an investigation, and found that the independence of the Japanese branch is very high, and the top level of the entire Japanese branch is all from the Eight Snake Families, and the middle level is mostly composed of people from the Eight Snake Families, and the proportion of mixed races with foreign surnames is very small," Chu Zi Hangdao, "The relationship between the Japanese branch and the academy is not subordinate to the upper and lower levels, but more similar to the submission of a subject country to the suzerain." ”

"That's why Senior Brother, you plan to investigate in person, because you are worried that if the Eight Snake Qi families collude with the Fierce Ghost Clan, and hand over the task to the Snake Eight Family, the Snake Eight Family will take the opportunity to protect the Fierce Ghost Clan." Lu Ming was not abrupt.

Chu Zihang nodded, paused, and said: "But this is just my decision out of prudence, in fact, except for the underworld of the Eight Snake Qi families, which is slightly sensitive in nature, I haven't found any other problems with them, maybe I'm just overthinking." ”

"If there was a problem, it wouldn't be so easy to see," Lu Mingfei said casually, but then he realized that something was wrong, and his voice suddenly rose, "Wait! What did Senior Brother Ling say? The Eight Snakes are mixed with the Japanese underworld?! ”

"It's not accurate to say 'mixed', the Eight Families of Snake Qi are actually the supreme leaders of the entire Japanese underworld, and all the Japanese Underworld must obey their rules and pay regular offerings," Chu Zi Hangdao, "In return, the Eight Families of Snake Qi will maintain the stability of the Japanese underworld, as long as the rules of the Eight Families of Snake Qi are not triggered, even if it is illegal, the Eight Families of Snake Qi will protect the people of the underworld from the police." ”

"Isn't this still a gangster?!" Lu Mingfei's eyes widened, "And Senior Brother, you just said that they are just a little sensitive in nature?" Is it only 'slightly' to the extent of the underworld? ”

"Well," Chu Zihang nodded, "Many half-breed families in the academy have underworld backgrounds, but they were all whitewashed later. ”

"It's all a little bit, so what's particularly sensitive?" Lu Mingfei was curious.

Chu Zihang thought about it and said seriously: "For example, the equipment department." ”

Lu Mingfei: ......

Damn, can't refute it!

Compared with hacking the most advanced drone bombing fireworks of the US military, mixing with the Japanese underworld does not seem to be a big deal.

Lu Mingfei was silent, but Chu Zihang was a little curious: "You don't know that the Japanese branch has an underworld background?" Didn't you investigate before you came? ”

"Who would investigate this kind of thing," Lu Mingfei covered his face, "My understanding of the Japanese branch comes from the principal, and the principal didn't mention it when he told me, just said that the Japanese branch is very powerful in Japan, including many industries, for example, he has a student, and he controls the largest customs industry and entertainment ......industry in Japan."

In fact, Yuan Zhisheng should have introduced these things to Lu Mingfei, but in his opinion, Lu Mingfei came on behalf of Ange, and he should already know the situation of the Eight Snake Qi families very well, so there is no need to bother talking.

……

The next day, Lu Mingfei got up early, he originally wanted to take Chu Zihang to meet the eight family heads together, but Chu Zihang said that he was going to investigate the mission, so Lu Mingfei could only go by himself.

He went downstairs for breakfast, and then walked around the street for a while, and at about nine o'clock, Genji and Sakura came to the door and took him to Genji Heavy Industries.

Although it was very close, it was definitely not possible to let the distinguished guests walk, so naturally Sakura drove Lu Mingfei and Yuan Zhisheng.

Lu Mingfei noticed that Sakura specially wore a pair of flat-soled women's leather shoes today.

Getting out of the car, Sakura and Genjisheng took Lu Mingfei into the towering Genji Heavy Industries building and into the elevator, where Sakura pressed the button on the thirtieth floor.

In the elevator, Lu Mingfei wanted to say something to liven up the atmosphere, so he looked at Yuan Zhisheng and asked, "Senior Brother Yuan, is the original industry of the Eight Snake Qi families in Akiba?" ”

"Akihabara?" Yuan Zhisheng was stunned.

He knew something about Akihabara, which was originally an electric town, but more and more games and electronics were released here, and it gradually became a mecca for otaku, and the name of "Otaku Street" Akihabara began.

He wasn't very interested in two-dimensional culture, but he had a heavy two-dimensional sister, so it was hard to know - his sister had told him countless times that she wanted to go to Akihabara to play, but she couldn't leave the scope of Genji Heavy Industries, not even her own hospital room.

But why did Lu Mingfei suddenly mention Akihabara, could it be that the S-level of the academy is also an otaku? Impossible, right?

"I want to buy some beautiful girl figures, and I also want to bring gifts for some friends," Lu Mingfei took out a small figure of the Heavenly Maiden Beast from his jacket pocket, "This is what I bought near the hotel in the morning, and I only found this one I like after looking for a long time, but the workmanship is not very good, and there is no packaging box, I suspect that it is piracy." ”

"So I think it's easier to find a good figure by going to a two-dimensional gathering place like Akihabara...... By the way, Senior Brother Yuan, do you know this character? She's a Digimon character......"

Childish: ......

The S-class is really inscrutable.

Fortunately, the speed of the elevator was very fast, and without waiting for Yuan Zhisheng to answer, he had already reached the thirtieth floor.

Stepping out of the elevator, Sakura opened a secret door in the middle of the building, and the sunlight shone out behind the door.

There is a spacious terrace on this floor, which is hidden in a corner of the building, and it is not easy to detect from the ground and the sky, and you can only step into this cave by opening this sliding door.

"Inside is the Awakening Temple, where the heads of the eight families are waiting for you." Sakura guided Lu Mingfei into the door.

Although it is called Koshinji, it is not a Buddhist temple, but a Shinto temple in Japan, also called a Shinto temple.

Usually shrines are built on a mountain, and there is a long road from the torii gate to the main hall called "Sando", but there is really not such a large space in a single building, so the shrine is a torii gate in front of the eye, and a building behind the torii gate.

Lu Mingfei walked in with Sakura, and before entering the main hall, Sakura held a copper basin, and the copper basin was filled with water, and Lu Mingfei washed his hands and rinsed his mouth, which was the "hand water ceremony" before visiting the shrine.

After Lu Mingfei and Yuan Zhisheng performed the hand water ceremony, Sakura bowed and left, and Lu Mingfei followed Yuan Zhisheng into the main hall.

The main hall is extraordinarily spacious, with a huge curtain hanging from it, and under the curtain are eight small tables with different long knives enshrined on the tables, and the hilts of the knives are depicted in gold with eight different family crests, seven of which are kneeling with a person sitting in front of them, and only one is empty.

Seeing Lu Mingfei come in, six of them all got up and bowed, only a red-haired girl with a black veil covering her face did not move, and the red and white witch dress on her body had no sense of disobedience in the shrine.

"Lu Jun, let me introduce you to ......" Gen Zhisheng walked up to the seven and introduced, "This is the head of the Ryoma family, Mr. Ryoma Kenichiro, Mr. Ryoma Kenichiro is the current head of the Japanese branch. ”

The long knife on the table behind the head of the Ryoma family, depicting the head of the horse of the god horse on the hilt, is undoubtedly from the hand of the master, and the horse seems to be jumping into reality at any time, but contrary to the head of the horse of the god horse, the head of the Ryoma family looks like a man who is going through a mid-life crisis, wearing a meticulous suit, as a half-breed, he is a little grateful, and the whole person has no spirit.

"The head of the Inuyama family, Mr. Inuyama. Mr. Inuyama was the first branch minister, and the Tamamo former club, which you entertained yesterday, is the property of the Inuyama family. Yuan Zhisheng said.

The gray-haired head of the Inuyama family looked very kind, and his smile was also very kind: "Originally, the old man was supposed to greet him in person last night, but the occasion of all beautiful girls suddenly squeezed in an old man with a wrinkled face like me, which is estimated to affect everyone's interest, so I postponed the meeting to today, please forgive me." ”

"The head of the Sakurai family, Ms. Nanami Sakurai, who also serves as the inspector of the Japanese branch." Gen introduced the only woman among those who stood up and bowed, and the other woman was still sitting steadily, her hands tucked into the wide sleeves of the shrine maiden's skirt.

The head of the Sakurai family is actually a stunning young woman, although she is deliberately conservative in her clothes, but the suit skirt cannot hide her fiery curves, and the crimson thick-rimmed glasses are worn on her face, and the plain makeup is like a full makeup.

"Mr. Kotaro, the head of the Wind Demon family, the 'Ruotou' of the Eight Snake Clans, when the eldest patriarch is away, the affairs of the family are decided by Mr. Wind Demon." Genzhi Shengdao. That being said, in fact, in recent years, when the patriarch is away, he is the de facto leader, but he doesn't like this feeling.

The head of the Wind Demon family was the only one present who looked like an underworld person, this old man in a black kimono was like a forged iron forge, his eyes were as cold as a knife, and he felt like he was being pointed at the center of his eyebrows by a knife when he stood in front of him. But the name seems to be a famous person in Japan more than 400 years ago, and I don't know what I thought when I chose the name, aren't you afraid of embarrassment?

"Next is me," Yuan Zhisheng pointed to himself, "I am the head of the Yuan family. ”

Lu Mingfei was a little surprised: "I didn't expect Senior Brother Yuan to become the head of the family at such a young age, I thought that the head of the family would be the elder of your family." ”

The faces of all the heads of the families present changed slightly, only the red-haired female head of the family with a black veil covering her face, even if her complexion changed, no one could see it.

Gen Zhisheng was silent for a moment and explained, "I am currently the only member of the Gen family. ”

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment to react to the meaning of Yuan Zhisheng, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry Senior Brother Yuan......"

"It's okay," Gen Zhisheng shook his head, introducing the head of the family who had been kneeling in place, wearing a shrine maiden costume, "This is the head of the Uesugi family, Uesugi Eri, she is not very sociable, and she can't speak, please forgive Lu Jun for the rudeness." ”

The head of the Uesugi family looked up at Lu Mingfei and saluted, which could be regarded as greeting.

"Eri!" Tachibana Masamune, who was dressed in white linen, reprimanded in a low voice: "Be polite to distinguished guests!" ”

The head of the Uesugi family blinked, took out a small notebook from his sleeve, lowered his head and wrote for a while, and held it up: "Hello." ”

Lu Mingfei blinked, and said in his heart that this girl didn't look very smart.

And it's also a little pitiful that he is disabled and can't speak.

Lu Mingfei was a little distressed, this was the first time in his life that he communicated with a disabled person, and he didn't know how to greet the female head of the family better, so he couldn't help but reach out and scratch his head, but he suddenly found that the eyes of the head of the Uesugi family suddenly changed, and he stared intently at his left waist.

Lu Mingfei looked down, only to find that he had stretched his clothes because he was scratching his head with his hand, causing the figure of the Heavenly Maiden Beast that was barely in the pocket of his jacket before to reveal a head.

And the head of the Uesugi family focused on the head of the Celestial Maiden Beast that emerged from his pocket.
