Chapter 42: The Evil Varian
Chapter 42
XANXUS is here because he got lost.
Compared to Basil, Sperbi Squalo was clearly more powerful, so Xanxus felt confident in leaving the ring's affairs with him. At 5:00 PM, Sperbi Squalo would arrive at the designated location, carrying the box containing the other half of the Vongola ring.
But for some reason, Sperbi Squalo, who was always punctual, did not show up this time.
Because he felt a little hungry, XANXUS thought of going to a nearby Western restaurant to order a steak. He also wanted to see if the Japanese chef could make a dish that would satisfy him.
XANXUS had a good idea, but he wasn't familiar with Japan to begin with, and directions were difficult for him. After asking (terrifying) and scaring five passersby and still unable to find the restaurant, XANXUS finally lost his temper.
He randomly grabbed a silver-haired boy with a strange face painting from the street. He didn't notice the obvious excitement on his face after being caught. XANXUS raised his voice and asked with a sour face, "Where is the most famous Western restaurant around here?"
"The Western restaurants in Namimori-cho might not suit your taste."
The boy could tell at a glance that XANXUS wasn't Japanese. He laughed and, before XANXUS could get angry, said, "But I know someone with the same identity as you. I think you can get a satisfactory answer from him."
XANXUS was already a bit irritable due to hunger, and the other party's words were a bit vague, so he only heard that someone could satisfy him, but he didn't hear the four words "same status" at all.
He had no interest in bullying the brat, and the other party had indeed given an answer that interested him. With this thought, XANXUS snorted coldly and pushed the man aside. Watching him stumble a few steps, then struggle to regain his balance, his eyes flashed with mockery, and he felt no remorse for what he had done.
"You... barely."
Although he didn't like the look in his eyes, he was the first kid like him who didn't show any fear when seeing him since he came to Japan. Suppressing the urge to kill the boy because of his gaze, XANXUS narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on him.
"I hope I can kill you next time I have the chance."
The boy laughed, but when he lowered his head, there was a ripple in his eyes.
"I'm looking forward to it."
“…”
What a guy who makes people feel annoyed just by looking at him. Not wanting to spend another second with the boy, XANXUS sneered and turned to walk in the direction the other person was talking about.
Then--
Then we saw the scene where Kurokawa Kaoru handed the ring to Sawada Tsunayoshi.
In reality, XANXUS was a very strange person. He had ordered Sperbi Squaro to have the ring taken from Basil, but given Sawada Iemitsu's personality, it was impossible for him to just hand over the Vongola ring to Basil. It was obvious that he was using it as bait to paralyze himself.
The self-righteous trash thought that by using this method, he could give Sawada Tsunayoshi some breathing room, but he didn't know that XANXUS had never intended to become the tenth generation in this way.
Regardless of whether the other members of the Vongola would agree, XANXUS's self-esteem would not allow such a thing to happen.
That's true, but if you saw everything and pretended nothing happened, then you'd be saying nothing. Thinking of what the boy who showed him the way said before, XANXUS raised his eyebrows, and his gaze swept across the faces of Sawada Tsunayoshi and the others, finally stopping on Kurokawa Kaoru.
"You're the one that kid mentioned who can cook steak, right?"
I was thinking about how to hide behind Reborn and let someone help me block the attack if XANXUS attacked me. Hearing the other party's words, Kurokawa Kaoru's expression was confused. After a long while, he said, "Why steak?"
"That kid with the weird pattern on his face said that all I have to do is find you."
XANXUS sneered at the boy's words, misinterpreting them to his own meaning. He pulled a gun from his pocket and pointed it at Kurokawa Kaoru. "I've been hungry for twenty minutes because of this. If I don't get a satisfactory answer from you, all of you rubbish can go to hell."
no--
Kurokawa Kaoru was even more confused.
Who was that kid with the weird face painting? Setting aside whether he could cook steak... well, he could. The problem was, I didn't even know this person, and now I had to take responsibility for what he said. Anyone would find that baffling.
Having not had much contact with Varian in the past, Kurokawa Kaoru didn't know much about XANXUS. Seeing him staring at him blankly, Kurokawa Kaoru's expression changed slightly, and he said tentatively: "Actually, I don't..."
"Then go to hell."
“…”
Almost the moment he opened his mouth, a reddish-brown flame erupted from the gun in XANXUS's hand. At the same time, Kurokawa Kaoru retreated ten meters away, but even so, the end of his wig was still singed.
This is the most expensive wig! Kurokawa Kaoru's eyes widened, and he looked at XANXUS with some anger in his eyes.
Is it so great to have super powers? Even if you have super powers, you can’t just burn people’s wigs!
Ignoring Kurokawa Kaoru's anger, XANXUS raised his eyebrows, full of surprise that Kurokawa Kaoru could dodge his attack. It only took one look to tell that Kurokawa Kaoru was a boy dressed in women's clothing, but what surprised XANXUS was the other party's reaction speed.
It's not so much that he heard the gunshots and then reacted, but rather that he guessed his own reaction from the beginning and took action in advance.
"A self-righteous bug."
XANXUS was successfully motivated and smiled, with the figure of Kurokawa Kaoru clearly reflected in his eyes.
"It seems you really want to die."
“…”
Kurokawa Kaoru had a headache: "Did I ever say I wanted to die?"
It was obvious that no one cared about this kind of thing. Seeing XANXUS take out an identical pistol from the other pocket, Kurokawa Kaoru took a deep breath, first looked at Reborn with resentment, and the next second, he raised his voice, and the content of his words successfully made XANXUS freeze in place.
"It's indecent assault! Someone wants to do something bad to a beautiful and delicate lady like me!"
"wait……"
Who wants to molest him?
XANXUS, who still didn't know enough about the bottom line of human beings, opened his eyes wide and was unable to react for a moment.
He couldn't understand why Kurokawa Kaoru suddenly spoke in such a high-pitched voice, even though he was a boy. His words were full of lies. But this wasn't the time for him to dwell on this. Hearing footsteps approaching from a relatively short distance, XANXUS gritted his teeth and looked at Kurokawa expressionlessly.
Wait, where's the garbage man?
"If it was Kurokawa Kaoru, he would have left just now."
Even Reborn hadn't guessed that Kurokawa Kaoru would pull such a tactic. It looked like the police would be here in less than five minutes. Not wanting to argue with the police over trivial matters, Reborn tugged at his hat and lowered his eyes, hiding the light in them.
"If you don't want to be invited to tea by the Japanese police under strange pretexts, it's better to leave early."
Even if Bourne didn't say anything about this, XANXUS himself understood it.
Although XANXUS did not think that the Japanese police would pose much of a threat to him, one of the rules of Vongola was that they could not attack the police without provocation. Before the battle for the ring began, he did not want to leave any handle for the old guys in Vongola to lecture him.
Thinking that all this was because of the little kid in women's clothes, XANXUS laughed, with a scarlet light flashing in his eyes.
"You should know that brat, right? Reborn."
"What if I say I don't know him?"
Facing XANXUS's murderous gaze, Reborn spoke calmly.
Hearing his voice, XANXUS laughed again. Reborn's words meant he and the other party knew each other and were quite familiar with each other. He had originally just wanted to see what the level of Western restaurants in Japan was like, but he didn't expect to run into a kid who made him lose face.
Just when his fighting spirit was rising, he was forced to be crushed by the approaching police. Knowing that if he didn't leave, he would have to run into the Japanese police, XANXUS breathed a sigh of relief and said in Reborn's direction, "Please keep this half of the Vongola ring for me for now. Remember to tell that brat not to let me run into him again."
"If there is a next time..."
The corners of XANXUS's lips curled up, and Reborn heard the content of his words clearly.
"When that time comes, I will definitely kill him with my own hands."
TBC.
