Chapter 91 The night before departure
Chapter 92 The Eve of Departure
"Bing, let's go have dinner." After playing in the video game arcade for about an hour, Jingliu patted her belly and said.

"Well, OK, I'm a little hungry too." I smiled and said to Jingliu. But looking at the pile of dolls in my hand, I felt helpless. It seems that I was a little serious. I actually took out all the dolls in the machine. Of course, I couldn't take all these dolls away, because I had no interest in these things. Even Jingliu was not very interested, after all, she already had a "doll" next to her that she could hug at will. I came here just to kill time. I picked a crab doll as a commemoration of today's victory, and then we followed Ningxue to the VIP restaurant on the top floor.

"Huh? Why is there one less person?" I asked in confusion as I saw that there were only two Night Crows, which should have been three of them.

"That's right, Mr. Mingya." Ningxue smiled. "Because the boss asked us to stay by your and Miss Baihe's side 24 hours a day, so I arranged for Ningyue to take a rest first, and Ningshuang will be with you in the second half of the night. I will accompany you during the day."

"Ah? Have you relaxed already?" Looking at the knowing smile on Ningxue's lips, which was different from the professional smile just now, I raised my eyebrows slightly.

"Oh no, sorry." Ningxue suddenly said nervously. Being discovered by the target of the mission that she was slacking off during the mission was a very fatal thing. If the boss knew about this, especially when facing the most distinguished guest, the boss would definitely not forgive her.

"Haha, don't be so nervous, Axue." I shrugged. "With me here, nothing will happen unless someone of Hunshang's level comes. I hope you can relax and get along well with Sister Jingliu, but I didn't expect you to adapt so quickly. I thought it would take at least two or three days. This is a good thing, don't worry too much."

"I'm really sorry, Mr. Mingya." Ningxue apologized for her mistake. "In fact, I have never relaxed in all the previous missions, but..."

"Just?" I raised my head and looked at her in confusion.

"Well, it's just that I've never felt this way before." Ningxue bowed slightly and explained. "I saw Miss Baihe and Mr. Mingya. I don't know why. My tense heart suddenly relaxed." Ningxue had done protection missions before, but she had never felt as relaxed as this time.

"Haha, how does it feel?" A faint smile appeared on the corner of my mouth.

"......" However, Ningxue did not answer my question. I shrugged again. I did not embarrass Ningxue, but motioned her to continue leading the way. Ningxue did not say anything else, bowed slightly again in apology, and continued to lead Jingliu and me forward.

Soon, we arrived at the revolving restaurant on the top floor and found a seat by the window. Looking at the bustling night scene with bright lights outside the window, one can't help but feel a little better.

I don't need to worry about the food, Shoulang will naturally arrange it for us. So soon after we sat down, plates of delicious food were served. Looking at the plates of delicious food, Jingliu couldn't help but feel hungry. She didn't need to be restrained here. Just eat as much as she wanted. Look, the steak was just served, and Jingliu had already stabbed it with a fork.

"I say, Sister Jingliu, no one is competing with you for the food." I held my chin and looked at Jingliu's cute eating posture, and couldn't help but smile. "Pay attention to your ladylike image."

"Hehe, I'm hungry." Jingliu wiped the juice from the steak on his mouth and smiled at me.

"Oh...really. Eat slowly. If it's not enough, there's more." I rubbed my forehead helplessly. This girl has no idea what a lady is when it comes to eating.

I looked up at Ningxue and Ningshuang who were still standing by the table. Did I just make a joke too much? Seeing Ningxue put on a professional smile again, I frowned slightly.

"Why are you two still standing?" I asked in confusion. "Sit down and eat together."

"Haha, thank you for your invitation, Mr. Mingya." Ningxue smiled. "But this may violate our mission guidelines."

"It's not as complicated as you think." I curled my lips. "Let's eat together. Shuang'er still has to keep watch tonight. She can't go hungry." Of course, this is just an excuse. Where I am, there is no need for them to keep watch. "Shuang'er, sit down and eat." I whispered to Ningshuang who was beside Ningxue.

"This..." Ningshuang was a little hesitant and subconsciously looked at her sister beside her.

"This is an order." I dropped another bombshell.

"Well... okay, then we'd better obey your command." Ningxue and Ningshuang bowed slightly and sat down next to us. It happened that this seat could seat four people and Ningyue was not here, otherwise we would have to add more seats in an awkward manner.

————The scent of orchids, the scent of lavender, the scent of home & the wings of angels, the wings of demons, the wings of guardians————

Ningxue sat next to me. Ningshuang sat opposite me. Of course, they just sat down and didn't move their chopsticks. After all, they didn't dare to move until I started eating.

"Yeah, just be obedient. Eat quickly, I'm starving." Seeing the two sisters sitting down obediently, I grinned with my little white teeth bared. After an afternoon of playing with the claw machine, I was indeed a little hungry. "Then, I'll start eating... Hey! Sister Jingliu, that lobster is mine, give it back to me!"

"No, it's your fault for being so slow. It's already mine, wait for the next game." Jingliu didn't give me any face at all.

"Wow..." I could only flash my tearful eyes and helplessly order lobster again from the ordering machine next to me. When I turned around after ordering, I found that the plate of beef in front of me was gone again. I looked up and saw Jingliu putting the last few slices of beef on the frosted plate. I looked around again. The three of them had fresh and tender marinated beef on their plates, but my plate was empty.

"Wuwuwu... Sister Jingliu, you can't bully me like this." I said with tears streaming down my face. This is obviously another rhythm of teasing me.

"Hehe, who told you to take so long to order? You can't blame me." Jingliu winked at me playfully. "..." I was speechless and could only stare at Jingliu with my puffy face and squinted eyes. So, I gave up the idea of ​​ordering more and decided to finish all the food on the table first. So, a food war broke out between Jingliu and me.

"Damn it, Sister Jingliu, give me back my lobster."

"No way. Ugh."

"Hey, don't swallow it all in one gulp. That's a fine dish."

"I won't give it to you either. Woohoo... I'm choking. Damn it, Bing, give me some water. I feel so uncomfortable."

"No, you give me back the beef first. Hey! That's my drink!"

"Huh... I feel much better, Hundanbing, I can't cure you."

"Woooa! I was wrong, Sister Jingliu, I was wrong! Forgive me!"

"Humph, begging for mercy is useless. Wake up!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Next to Jingliu, Ningshuang just quietly watched me and Jingliu playing. A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Opposite Ningshuang, her sister Ningxue had a trace of confusion in her eyes. Then it turned into sadness, and finally returned to calmness. In just a few seconds, Ningxue seemed to let go of something in her heart, and seemed to start yearning for something. However, all this was not known to others.

Dinner ended with Jingliu and I having fun. It was time to rest at night, so Ningxue led us back to our room. However, Shoulang had been waiting at the door for a long time.

"Welcome back, Mr. Mingya." The unpleasant voice of Skinny Wolf broke into my ears, "I wonder if you had fun this afternoon?" Compared to the heavenly voice of a girl that I had enjoyed all afternoon, Skinny Wolf was simply murdering my ears.

"You're still here so late, Skinny Wolf. Are you trying to use your ugly voice to irritate me and keep me awake?" I said unhappily as I opened the door.

"Haha, you are joking, Mr. Mingya." Shoulang didn't care about my joke and bowed like a gentleman. "It's really presumptuous to bother you so late, but just now, I have obtained the information of three of the four opponents. In order not to delay this plan, I sent it to you as soon as possible." Shoulang handed me some information.

"Well... let me guess, you probably didn't get the information about Yuichi Akano?" I took the information and walked into the door, then sat on the sofa, stretched out and said lazily.

"...As expected of Mr. Mingya, your insight is truly amazing." Skinny Wolf was slightly surprised by what I said.

"Haha, that's not the case. It's just that judging from their strength, it's not that easy to penetrate a force led by Hunshang. A killer ranked tenth would naturally be wary of anyone with hostility. I guess the informant you sent out should have been killed, right?"

"Yes..." Shoulang said helplessly. "He has indeed been killed, and... my personal information and information about my power group were also leaked by Akano Yuichi. And Mr. Liufeng's photo. It has also been confirmed that they have it in their hands. But it is still unknown whether there are any rumors."

"......" Hearing what Shoulang said, my face began to become serious. From the current intelligence, this Akano Yuichi must be eliminated. Let's not talk about whether my own photo is exposed or not. The existence of the character Hunshang alone is enough to give me a headache. I must find a way to kill him first, but with my current strength, I am afraid that even if I kill him, I may be injured. The Demon Fox already has two high-level killers. If other forces also add killers ranked above 50 in the past two days, then I may not be able to escape this secret fight unscathed.

Sitting on the sofa, I supported the armrests with my arms, crossed my hands between my noses, and quietly thought about what method I could use to control this auction and implement my plan.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, one hour, two hours, time passed by little by little. During these two hours, Jingliu stood beside me all the time, not daring to disturb me. It might be because of the atmosphere, or maybe she was used to it. Jingliu never forgot her identity. As long as it was formal and related to the mission, she always stood beside me, waiting for my order. No matter where we were, no matter what our identities were, this would never change.

"Sister Jingliu." After a long time, I suddenly said.

"Ok?"

"It's late. Go to bed first." I looked up at Jingliu and smiled softly. Jingliu just looked up at the clock on the wall and found that it was past twelve o'clock. He didn't say anything, nodded, and turned to the master bedroom. He closed the door gently.

　I don’t want to say anything anymore. I’m under a lot of pressure at work. I’m so tired. . Please read books. I’ll try my best when I have time. Please recommend. Please don’t criticize me. . I’m really tired. . .
