Chapter 362: Shore
Chapter 362: Shore
It was originally just a welcoming dinner for those returning from a mission, but suddenly an uninvited guest showed up.
"My name is Anbian, please give me your guidance."
The silver-haired uncle at the table politely introduced himself to everyone at the table.
Vera chewed the delicious sushi made by Takagi and muttered, "My name is Vera! Is the uncle also a demon hunter?"
"Yeah, that's right." He said on the shore, pinching his beard.
"Is it great?"
"It's awesome."
Vera held a fork in her mouth, put on a very arrogant expression, patted Xu Sheng on the shoulder and said, "That's definitely not as good as Xu Sheng!"
The man on the shore glanced at Xu Sheng, who looked like he was screwed, and said meaningfully, "Indeed, not at all."
Vera looked up proudly and hummed.
Anbian curled his lips, and the scar at the corner of his mouth became a little hideous. He pretended not to care and said, "The horn on your head is a hairpin?"
A crack appeared in Xu Sheng's speechless expression, and his gaze towards the shore became a little subtle.
"Eh? This is the horn! I'm a demon!"
Vera is no longer hiding her demon identity. She is now a registered demon hunter, and with Xu Sheng protecting her, no one can touch her.
"A demon? It seems that toys like this won't be damaged so easily..."
The second half of the sentence on the shore was spoken in a very low voice, like a murmur of emotion, but Xu Sheng still heard it clearly. Assuming the way the other person looked at Vera, his eyes staring at the shore became alert, as if he was looking at an old yellow-haired man who was trying to dig up his cabbage.
When Gao Mu brought out the last dish, he saw Anbian and Xu Sheng staring at each other.
"What are you doing?"
Anbian ended his "affectionate eye contact" with Xu Sheng, took the food from Gao Mu's hand and said, "It's okay, I just chatted with Mr. Xu Sheng."
After Gao Mu sat down, the four people at the table started eating.
During the meal, Xu Sheng learned about the relationship between Takagi and Kishibe. Takagi used to be a demon hunter working for the Japanese Public Security Bureau. Later, he met his current wife and moved to Moko, Sand Country. Until his wife passed away, he adopted Alice and Mizumi. Until now, Takagi has returned to being alone.
Before this, Takagi had always been Kishibe's deputy. Generally speaking, this dinner was just seeing his old boss strolling on the street and inviting him home for dinner.
On the one hand, Xu Sheng was prejudiced against the words on the other side of the river, and on the other hand, he felt guilty about hiding the matter of the Devil of the Flow, so he did not stay long after dinner and went out to look for Chi Ke.
Chi Ke did not come to Takagi's house for dinner. He has no memory of Takagi now. Compared with coming here to eat, he wants to find Bai Luosheng's family and tell them about Bai Luosheng's death.
Vera went back to her home. After all, staying out all night was not something a girl should do.
After cleaning up the dishes, Takagi and Kishibe sat on the balcony, each smoking a cigarette.
Takagi used to work under Kishibe, so even if he didn't understand his old boss's style, he could at least guess some of it.
"Are you the one sent to Saudi Arabia for support this time? The public security department is really generous." Takagi teased.
"The one sent by China was Guangxi. I heard that Britain sent five queen crowns. That's a real big deal." Anbian smiled and took a puff of cigarette.
Gao Mu frowned. Generally speaking, apart from China, no other country would provide such assistance. The fact that Britain suddenly sent five Queen's Crowns to support Saudi Arabia was no longer ordinary assistance.
"Have you been idle at home these days?"
"Well, Captain... President Dudalinov gave me leave to rest."
"That's clear."
Anbian nodded in understanding and said, "With your position, you should have heard of it."
He took the last puff of his cigarette and said, "Next, something big is going to happen."
Takagi had a bad feeling in his mind. The last time Anbian said this to him, the Gun Demon attacked the Japanese port the next day.
"What's going to happen?!"
Shore threw the cigarette butt into the trash can and said, "Last month, the Demon Alliance attacked Manchester in England, causing the deaths of tens of thousands of people and the destruction of half of the city."
"The Demon Alliance is an alliance formed entirely of demons and devils that was born in the United Kingdom. Its leader was once a rule-based demon imprisoned by MI6. After escaping, he formed the Demon Alliance with the intention of destroying the existing rule of mankind and allowing demons to occupy the world. The Demon Alliance has been formed for several years, and MI6 has conquered it several times, but ultimately failed to strangle it in the cradle. Now the Demon Alliance has grown into an extremely dangerous terrorist organization, and has caused terrorist attacks in countries around the world."
Takagi had heard of the Demon Alliance a long time ago, but he was not wary of it. After all, demons have been hunted throughout human history.
If a group of beasts who only know how to destroy and bloodthirst are put together, are they no longer beasts?
After a long conversation on the shore, he took a sip of the water handed to him by Gao Mu and continued, "According to reliable information, the Demon Alliance recently appeared in Novosibirsk, Saudi Arabia. Britain fully suspects that the Demon Alliance's next target is Saudi Arabia, so it calls on all countries for assistance. This is also the reason why I came here."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"To give you a choice."
