Chapter 90 A Day of Relaxation
Chapter 91 A Day of Relaxation
Click, click, click.
In the next twenty minutes, I was almost like a rag doll, with Jingliu taking pictures of me in penguin costume, bunny costume, and bear costume. Not a single one was missed, all of them were taken, of course, there were also images of me with half-moon eyes, twitching mouth corners, and foaming at the mouth. But Jingliu was obviously enjoying it. In her words, it was rare to regain the appearance of a seven-year-old. It was impossible not to tease her. And after my hair turned pale blonde, the once mature index dropped a little, but the cute index soared straight up, which made Jingliu love it.
"Jing... Sister Jingliu. You've been filming for more than 30 minutes. Please forgive me." After more than ten minutes, I struggled out of Jingliu's arms in my white bunny outfit, looked at her with tearful eyes and begged for mercy. "My glorious image is ruined." Looking at Ningxue and the others behind Jingliu, who were laughing softly with their red lips covered, I instantly felt that the perfect killer image I had just established in front of Shoulang and them collapsed instantly. How could this be the killer who was murderous just now? He was clearly a child who was acting like a spoiled child in his sister's arms.
"Hehe, since you've been so cooperative today, I'll let you go for now." Jingliu pinched my tender face and said cunningly.
"Wow..Thank. Thank you." I burst into tears at this.
"Puchi." Behind Jingliu, Ningxue laughed softly.
"..." I squinted my eyes and looked at Ningxue and the others angrily. After they felt my resentful look, they slightly restrained their smiles. But the forced resistance on their faces was still obvious.
"After playing for so long... I hope you haven't forgotten your important work." I changed the subject.
"Yes, Mr. Mingya." Ningxue said with a slight serious expression. "I have already asked Ningshuang to handle it. The two sets of special clothes selected by Miss Baihe for you are being made in our processing factory. Please rest assured."
"Two?" I raised my eyebrows and looked up at Jingliu. "Sister Jingliu, you didn't order the two sets of clothes you bought in Ginza again?"
"Of course, because I think those two sets of clothes are perfect and most suitable for you." Jingliu winked at me playfully. "This way you can have clothes to wear all year round."
"Yeah... That's right, I can't get used to other styles either." I shrugged. Actually, for clothes, I just wear them to keep warm. As for whether they look good after wearing them, that's Jingliu's business. Jingliu and I have lived together for ten years, so she naturally knows my preferences very well.
"Hehe, there's still some time before dinner, Bing, where should we go?" Jingliu asked me after solving the clothes problem.
"Don't ask me, ask Ningxue. This is their territory." I pointed at Ningxue behind Jingliu.
"Haha, Mr. Mingya, that's not right." Ningxue smiled politely. "The sixth floor of this shopping mall is a place dedicated to entertainment. There are many electronic entertainment facilities there. If you want to kill time, I believe it is the most suitable place.
"Okay, Bing, let's go there." Jingliu poked my face and smiled sweetly.
"Yes. Yes. Today you are the boss, I will listen to you." In this situation, no matter where Jingliu wants to go, I will not object, because my only hope now is to take off this bunny outfit as soon as possible. Especially in front of Ningxue and the others, it is too embarrassing to dress like this.
————The scent of orchids, the scent of lavender, the scent of home & the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians————
After changing back into my own clothes, I went to the sixth floor with Jingliu and the others. As soon as I entered the lobby, the unique vitality of the arcade hit me.
"Huh? It's quite lively." I smiled. I thought that due to the relocation, Shoulang would gradually close down the various projects of the shopping mall. It seems that he is still a little undecided about this auction. But it's true. After all, this is a risky move. If you win, everyone is happy. If you lose, everything will be in vain. It's reasonable for Shoulang to leave a backup plan for himself.
"Yes, this is the only entertainment hall in Gunma Prefecture that is top-notch, and you can find all kinds of entertainment facilities here." Ning Xue bowed. "I heard that the United States is developing a new game facility, an electronic game product that requires you to sit in a game cabin and perform voice recognition with an artificial intelligence system. If it is really released, then this entertainment mall should be the first to purchase it."
"Hey, that sounds interesting." I shrugged. "But, this shopping mall should be demolished soon, right? After we take over the island."
"Haha, if that's the case, it really couldn't be better." Ning Xue said with a smile. "If it's really as Mr. Mingya said, it would be a great blessing for us."
"Don't worry, it's only a matter of time." I showed a wicked smile on my face. But the wicked smile turned into the face of a boy next door in the next second. "So, Sister Jingliu, what do you want to play?"
"Well... how about we go catch the doll?"
"Okay, I'll listen to you." After all, she is a girl. She is always interested in dolls. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been changed into so many clothes by Shizuka and taken so many photos. Oh, there is one more important thing. I must tell Shizuka that these photos cannot be spread outside. If Shiho sees them, I guess I won't be able to hold my head up for the rest of my life. This is more uncomfortable than having a gun pointed at my head.
"Following Jingliu to the claw machine, Ningxue also brought a box of tokens from the front desk. One token at a time, Jingliu began her arduous journey of catching dolls.
"Well... to the right, a little to the right. A little further forward. Move forward. Hey! It's off again, wuwuwu..." Jingliu looked at the claw in the claw machine that missed again. He couldn't help but put on a wronged look.
"Ha..." I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I saw Jingliu's aggrieved look. She is already a 26-year-old girl, but she still acts like a child.
"Bing...what are you laughing at." Jingliu squinted his half-moon eyes and looked at me angrily.
"No, nothing." I laughed. "I just feel that Sister Jingliu, you are becoming more and more like a child."
"Really?" Jingliu's head was raised with a "井" character. Then he slowly squatted down, put his hands on my cheeks, and kneaded them vigorously. There was a sly smile on the corner of his mouth. "Who is the child now? Bing~"
"Mmmmm... I, I don't poop when I poop." Jingliu kneaded my cheeks so hard that I couldn't even speak clearly. I could only beg for mercy vaguely. It seems that in the past two days when I became smaller, Jingliu has obviously increased the number of times he teases me. Is it because the change in hair color makes me look more cute? Or is it because Jingliu has reached an age and started to like children? Of course, I dare not say this idea out loud, otherwise I will be beaten to death by Jingliu today.
"Yeah, good boy~ good boy~" Jingliu touched my head and giggled, completely ignoring my half-moon eyes and my red cheeks that were pinched by her. She gently reached out and picked me up again.
"Huh? Sister Jingliu, what are you doing?" I asked puzzledly.
"Since you are so confident, Bing, then come and try it. I don't believe you can catch it so easily." Jingliu smiled sweetly.
"This thing is not as difficult as you say." I sighed slightly. Then I put my hand on the joystick. Ningxue beside me also calmly put a coin into the claw machine.
"Just aim the iron claw at the doll, wait until it is stable, and press the button, isn't it?" I said, I had already adjusted the position of the iron claw and pressed the button. The iron claw slowly descended and just caught a doll.
"See, I said it was simple... Hey?!" Before I finished speaking, I saw the doll seemed to be greased, and three iron claws passed through the doll's body. The doll that was about to be caught fell down.
"See... I told you it's not that easy." Jingliu squinted his half-moon eyes and looked at me with contempt.
"Um... this, this is an accident." I said with a blushing face. "Ningxue, try again." "Yes." Ningxue put another coin in.
The entire process of operating the claw machine took less than 30 seconds. The iron claw reached down again, but just like the last time, it was clearly aimed, but the result of grabbing up was still a ball of invisible air.
"...I say, is this machine broken?" Facing the laughing Jingliu, I was a little speechless. I have never been so embarrassed as today, and twice in one day.
"Haha, Mr. Mingya, there will definitely be no problems with the machines here, please rest assured." Ningxue bowed.
"Really? Then come and catch one for me to see." I squinted my eyes and looked at her with distrust.
"Eh?" Ningxue was obviously stunned by my address, but she quickly realized that considering my status, it was not excessive for me to address her like that, but when she thought of her age...
"Haha, to be honest with you Mr. Mingya, I'm not good at this thing, but Shuang'er likes it very much. Maybe I should let her try it." As she said that, Ningxue slightly turned sideways and let Ningshuang out.
"This girl called Ningshuang does have some cold features. Maybe because of the sniping, her beautiful big eyes sometimes flash with a few rays of light. It is different from Ningxue's mature temperament and Ningyue's shy aura. It is a clean and sharp look.
Ningshuang didn't say much, just bowed politely to me and Jingliu, then put a token into the machine, moved the iron claw, positioned it, and pressed the button. The whole action took less than ten seconds, but in this short time, a doll was caught and sent to the extraction port by the iron claw.
Ningshuang took out a penguin doll from the bottom of the mouth and handed it to me. She bowed again and then returned to Ningxue's back, leaving me staring at the dotted eyes in a daze.
“Hahahahaha.” Jingliu couldn’t help but burst out laughing at my embarrassed look, “Hehehe, Bing, it seems you have no talent for catching dolls.”
"..." I could only bear Jingliu's teasing angrily. "Okay, I admit that I have no talent for this thing."
"Haha, Bing, you're so cute when you're angry~" Jingliu saw me looking angry and laughed again.
"Damn it, I just don't believe it." I always felt a little unwilling to Jingliu's laughter, so after grabbing some coins from Ningxue's hand, I started a super long challenge.
I tried, but failed. I tried, but failed. And every time I failed, Jingliu would reach out and poke my angry face. I could only keep inserting coins and trying to grab them in frustration.
"Heh..." Behind us, Ningxue saw me and Jingliu playing around, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Then she let out a breath.
"Sister, it's rare to see you relax during a mission." Ningshuang said softly behind Ningxue.
"Hmm? Yes. That's right." Ningxue said softly. "Perhaps, the mission target in front of us is a special case." That's right, for "Night Crow", Jingliu and I are their mission targets this time, but this time it's not eradication, but protection. Although the content is completely opposite, but the mission is a mission, as long as it is a mission, as the commander of Xiye, you should always be vigilant, this is a killer's habitual quality. Because a little carelessness may reveal a fatal flaw. Cause irreparable losses, and this kind of loss is mostly your own life.
"Hey? Why is it a special case?" Ningyue asked puzzled.
Ningxue smiled after hearing this. Then she raised her pointed chin towards me and said, "Look." Following Ningxue's instructions, Ningyue and Ningshuang looked at me at the same time. At this time, I was still squinting my eyes to accept Jingliu's teasing, and then I quickly turned to the claw machine next to me.
"The first time I met him was at the Mission Bar. You two were away because you were packing your equipment, but that kid. When I first met him, the first impression he gave me was cold, especially when he killed Drew. Although we were far away at the time, I could still feel the cold murderous aura coming towards me. When he shot the boss, I instinctively pulled out my gun at him, but to be honest, my hand holding the gun was shaking at that time, and the boss's order made me feel as if I had seen the legend eight years ago."
"Legend? Are you talking about the legend of Mr. Mingya's brother, Mr. Liufeng, which has been circulating in the boss's killer camp?" Ningshuang asked.
"That's right." Ningxue had a faint smile on her face. "At that time, we were already eleven or twelve years old and we were still crying in the training camp. But the murderous aura of the nine-year-old Liu Feng had left a terrible memory for everyone, including the boss. And just now, after that cold breath swept over me, I realized that in front of Liu Feng, we were really just a joke. Not to mention others, just from Mr. Mingya, I can feel that Liu Feng back then must have been stronger than Mingya now. Not to mention now."
"No wonder the boss respects him so much." Ningyue said attentively. Then a sly look appeared on her face. "I remember that my sister seemed to have always admired Mr. Liufeng, right?"
"Haha, yes." Ning Xue did not avoid the topic. "The one who became a legend in the assassin world at the age of 17. Although he has been taking missions at the boss's base, I have always wanted to take a look, to see what kind of cold face he has under that silver mask."
"But that doesn't seem to have much to do with our topic, right?" Ningshuang continued to ask.
"Haha, that was the case originally, but after meeting Mr. Mingya, I found that the feeling of anticipation seemed not that strong." Ningxue shrugged lightly.
"Hey? Could it be... could it be that my sister has fallen in love with Mr. Mingya?" Ningyue said in surprise, but Ningxue quickly turned around and raised her hand to give her a slap on the face.
"What nonsense are you talking about, you silly girl?" Ning Xue's pretty face turned slightly red. "I mean, after seeing him, I seem to understand what kind of person Liu Feng is."
"Eh? Why is that?" Ningyue rubbed the place where she was hit, stuck out her tongue and continued to ask.
"Look." Ning Xue raised her chin again. "Ming Ya now doesn't look like a killer anymore. People like us always have a faint murderous aura around us. That's because we have been killing people for a long time and we can't help but be infected with this aura. Even someone like me who is good at lurking can't completely hide his aura, but what about Ming Ya now? If you don't know, can you tell that he is a killer?"
After hearing what their sister said, Ningyue and Ningshuang looked at Mingya who was still playing with Jingliu, and shook their heads.
"It feels like a little kid acting like a spoiled child in his sister's arms."
"Well... I don't feel that he is a dangerous person at all." said the two girls.
"Haha, so, I seem to be able to feel that Liufeng should be such a person." Ningxue's eyes flashed with a trace of longing. "A person who treats his enemies as cold as a devil, and treats his family as gentle as the sun. So Miss Baihe, who has almost zero resistance to murderous aura, would be willing to stay with Mr. Liufeng, right?" Ningxue said longingly, but then a trace of doubt appeared on her brows. "But..."
"but?"
"Ah... no, nothing." Ningxue shook her head. "Maybe I'm thinking too much."
"Hey~ Sister, you seem to be jealous." Ningyue teased.
"You're such a quick-witted girl." Ning Xue said in feigned anger. "Hurry up and prepare for tonight's night watch. You're the first one today."
"Hehe, yes." Ningyue stuck out her tongue again, then turned and ran towards the gate of the arcade.
