Chapter 65 Buy the Binsheng First
Suzuki Sonoko's physique was better than he had expected.
In recent times, she has rarely been sick. Even if she gets scratched or bumped due to carelessness, the bruises disappear after she wakes up from a good night's sleep, and she has basically never felt any pain.
So ever since she felt pain in her wrist, she firmly believed that Gokudera Junto was sick.
It would be fine if he just held her tightly, he wouldn't even notice when he hurt her, but whenever Yuanzi struggled a little harder, his brows would furrow deeply.
That look...as if Sonoko felt particularly sorry for him.
Soma Yukihira is also a rather stubborn person. His eyes see an image, the image information is transmitted to his brain, and then his brain gives a straightforward first reaction.
So after seeing the specific scene clearly, he found the current scene very funny - he had attended many small emotional classes during the training camp, and he was taught a lot of magical knowledge by Sakaki Ryoko and others. The specific teaching materials ranged from girls' comics to light novels.
When he saw this scene, he felt a sense of déjà vu.
Suzuki Sonoko is hiding behind a foreigner (Rokudo Mukuro), with her wrist being tightly grasped by another guy who looks like a mixed-race guy (Gokudera Junto). She looks like she is in a dilemma, and it looks like a romance drama!
——He always felt very stupid and didn’t believe that the kind of plots that actually happened in real life.
The red-haired chef, intrigued by the novelty, actually started to laugh foolishly.
Suzuki Sonoko was stunned.
However, she was not in the mood to pay attention to Gokudera Junto at the moment, because she saw XANXUS raising his gun again in the distance. A light suddenly lit up in her mind, and she recalled that Mimasaka Rei had mentioned before that Yamamoto Takeshi was on the list of "heirs". In her vague memory, this hot-tempered little brother seemed to have been adopted in his early years specifically to be the heir.
Given that she now knows that the organization to which these two groups of heirs belong is the world's largest mafia, judging from the current situation, the decision-making process for the successor will probably rely on confrontation.
Seeing the red-hot gun barrel slowly pointed in the direction of Yukihira Soma, Suzuki Sonoko felt her heart was about to jump out of her throat - what are you grinning about! What kind of romance drama is this? This is clearly a murder scene!
So she quickly gestured to Soma Yukihira: Get back in the car!
The red-haired boy had just woken up after sleeping all the way in the car. He was not in the right state of mind yet and did not understand the meaning of the gesture at all. He just pointed at himself blankly, and it seemed that he was ready to step forward to help Yuanzi out of his misery.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but when Soma Yukihira raised his foot and prepared to walk towards her, in that thousandth of a second, Suzuki Sonoko’s five senses became extremely sharp.
Even though she was so far away, she heard the sound of XANXUS loading his gun, and even calmly flashed through her mind some insignificant thoughts like "The gun he used back then didn't look like this" and "It turns out that the hot-tempered little brother can really kill people."
If eyes could speak, these eight words would be written all over her eyes.
Soma Yukihira, lie down quickly!
The two of them probably really had no tacit understanding. When she looked at him anxiously, the red-haired boy was stunned, his eyes naturally fixed on her wrist that was being held, and even his expression became serious.
I beg you...
Although Suzuki Sonoko was subtly moved, she was mostly speechless: "Even though this is a gang of mafia, I really don't need you to save me. As long as they are alive and know who I am, they will definitely not have the courage to kill me."
——You are different. Why don’t you just go back to your car and hide there?
Because she didn't expect to be able to really speak with her eyes, she subconsciously used her free hand to tug at Rokudo Mukuro's sleeve.
As the indigo-haired boy tilted his head pretending to be ignorant, Miss Suzuki narrowed her eyes ferociously.
——Come on, Shikigami, it’s all your fault that I came here. If your cash cow breaks, I will never let you go!
The moment her gaze fell from Soma Yukihira to himself, Rokudo Mukuro's expression became very dangerous, but after carefully discerning her expression, Rokudo Mukuro smiled and narrowed his eyes.
Although anxious and angry, it was far from heartbreaking. He glanced at the harmless young man from the corner of his eye: Very good, there is no love or admiration, she looks at you, really just looking at a cash cow.
So he lowered his sleeves, gently pinched Suzuki Sonoko's other hand that had been pulling at the corner of his clothes, and rubbed the knuckles in a good mood.
That strange, gentle smile quickly disappeared when his eyes turned back to Cerbero, who was standing between the two groups.
XANXUS was about to shoot a passerby (Soma Yukihira), but Cerbero didn't stop him. Rokudo Mukuro thought that even if this young master really killed someone, these clone-like creatures would probably try to cover up for him by saying "the crime must not be known to irrelevant people and must be killed to silence them."
So it's true, he thought with interest: this war has been unfair from the very beginning.
But it didn't matter to him. The more the Mafia fought, the better. He was happy with any amount of shady dealings, but...
Rokudo Mukuro squeezed the soft fingers in his palm again - Suzuki Sonoko was just as he remembered her, a small soft ball when she was little, and a large soft ball when she grew up. Although she didn't look round after growing up, she still felt boneless when squeezed - since he had brought her here unintentionally and she was looking at him like this, he had to win, and he had to win beautifully.
Silly Miss Suzuki has seen so many embarrassing things in his past. If he doesn't do something to reverse his image, he will probably always be seen as a poor little boy with a miserable childhood in this person's eyes.
It's good that you're willing to shed tears for me, but it's time to change slowly.
He thought a lot, but it didn't take him long. When XANXUS had accumulated the flames and Faken Yukihira walked around the car door and was about to step into the arena, someone snapped his fingers lightly.
Although the sound is not loud, it is surprisingly penetrating.
"Excuse me for a moment."
In this seemingly lively but actually tense scene, a deep and pleasant male voice calmly attracted everyone's attention: "Is the battle of Wushou still going on?"
"If the fight continues, besides me and the baby across from us, is there anyone else who can intervene?"
As soon as the words fell, the whole place fell silent.
On the first day of the Ring War, Sawada Tsunayoshi jumped into the battlefield as the battle began and directly lost the ownership of the two rings. If he wanted XANXUS not to shoot, there was no need to directly provoke the tyrant's anger. Anyway, judging from the expressions of Cerbero and others, the rules of the game were probably set by him.
As expected, the two pink-haired puppets paused.
"The battle hasn't officially begun yet, so Lord XANXUS's actions certainly aren't a foul."
"I didn't say he was fouling me, I said I was sleepy," Rokudo Mukuro said with a smile, "Let's finish the game quickly and go home, because the sushi restaurant is closed and Sonoko hasn't eaten yet."
Yamamoto Takeshi, who was on guard not far away, was surprised. He rubbed the back of his head and turned back: "Hey, did Sonoko go to Take Sushi?"
Liudao Mukuro glanced at him from a distance and said nothing.
The barrel of XANXUS's gun was still red hot. In fact, in the short time before Cherbero officially announced the start of the battle, he could easily pull the trigger and kill someone to vent his anger.
But Rokudo Mukuro dared to bet that he put down his gun now not because he was afraid to kill his cash cow (Soma Yukihira), but because he was hesitating between killing someone who made him unhappy (Yukihira) and killing another person who made him even more unhappy (Rokudo Mukuro himself) when he only had enough time to fire one shot.
Cerbero keenly noticed the change in the amplitude of XANXUS's arm and quickly entered referee mode. To avoid the momentary bias, he changed the subject and said, "The Mist War is about to begin. All non-essential personnel, please leave."
Anyone with eyes knows that the irrelevant person refers to the red-haired man standing in front of the luxury car who knows nothing.
As for Suzuki Sonoko...
Judging from the way she entered Namimori, she should be a relative of Kirimori. Sawada Tsunayoshi was fooled by Reborn and just thought that this was the future "son-in-law" of Vongola. XANXUS had a fierce expression on his face and he almost picked her up and put her beside his legs. Cerbero had no intention of caring about her at all.
It would be fine if these identical pink dolls didn't speak, but once they started speaking, they instantly attracted the attention of some people who had never seen the world.
Soma Yukihira opened his eyes and asked, "Are you two twins?"
Suzuki Sonoko yelled at him from a distance: "You, shut up!"
She twisted her wrist briefly, then turned back and yelled at Yusi Junren: "You, let go."
Yusi couldn't believe it: "Can't you, woman, just talk to me properly for once?"
Suzuki Sonoko rolled her eyes and said: "Don't make it sound like we've talked about this many times, okay?!"
Although he yelled at her, the man seemed to realize that he couldn't keep holding her and let go of her hand angrily. Although the dark man was fierce, when he saw her red wrist bone, he couldn't help but glance at her several times, and he looked quite guilty.
After freeing one hand, she broke free with the other, squeezing Rokudo Mukuro's palm until it was sweaty. She glared at her own shikigami: "You!"
Rokudo Mukuro smiled: "Hmm?"
"Go fight your own battle!"
Then she left angrily, walked to the front of the car, pulled Soma Yukihira, and the two of them disappeared behind the car door together.
But that's all. Before the official result is determined, the level of martial law in Bingsheng will remain like this. The car can only leave the town after the fog battle is over.
After squatting back in the car, Suzuki Sonoko hit her head on the back of the chair in front of her and didn't say anything for a long time.
She is very angry now.
——Where did these psychopaths come from? Someone she hadn't seen for years suddenly showed up and acted so familiar. She yelled at someone she clearly didn't know as if she was a scumbag who abandoned her after having fun with him. Even her lifeline, Takeshi Yamamoto, made her super angry!
Moreover, Sonoko turned her head to look at Soma Yukihira, who had been silent since getting in the car: She is such a perfect person (…), but the scene just now made her look like a scumbag with a problematic lifestyle!
This scene is extremely detrimental to her creating a glorious and upright leadership image!
When his uncle was trying to win people over, he had a lot of bad habits, some minor but some minor, but he never showed any traits that would be despised under universal values.
Including being fickle.
Besides, she never spent any money!
Yuanzi sat in the car sulking, and in the end, she even started to consider calling her parents.
Soma Yukihira didn't understand what was wrong with her at all. It was only after returning to the environment where only the two of them were left that he began to realize: the scene of her pulling and tugging before seemed a bit subtle...
He followed the fixed process of Shao Ke Ke Shu (a well-known girls' comic), touching his chest and wondering if he was jealous.
After half a day, I came to the following conclusion: Although there is no feeling like the male characters in comics wanting to swing someone (usually the heroine) against the wall, crying out in pain and feeling heartbroken, there is indeed a kind of... strange and awkward feeling.
How to say it.
It feels like the slicing process was not handled properly when the ingredients were prepared, and the uneven thickness was discovered when they were placed on the plate. Even if it is still a delicious dish, it will make people feel uncomfortable when they see it.
This awkward feeling...is it jealousy?
After attending classes for a long time, Soma Yukihira couldn't help but want to take out his cell phone and make an off-site assistance call to the emotional education director, Ryoko Sakaki.
As a result, when he turned around, Miss Suzuki took out her cell phone with a serious expression.
"What's the garden for?"
Suzuki Sonoko now realized that Vongola was one of their partners, and she also knew that this was the organization that Giotto and Gatling were obsessed with, but she was very angry now - XANXUS, when he was a child, he would only hit dolls when he got angry, but now he was angry as if he wanted to hit her at will, even if he didn't hit her but was just threatening her, the chill behind this behavior was also very infuriating!
And the white-haired one came up and grabbed his hand, trying to frame her for having problems with her lifestyle.
And there is also the Shikigami Rokudo Mukuro whom she recognized by accident!
How come he eats Suzuki's food and then inexplicably becomes a member of another organization?
Is there no conflict in the labor contract?
The Vongola never even notified us when they poached someone else's girl?
She angrily pressed the keyboard of her phone: [If I get angry, what can I do to the people of Vongola?]
Suzuki's father seemed a little confused by the sudden mention of the Vongola: "Hasn't Sonoko been researching the seasoning factory recently? How did she run into someone from the Vongola?"
When Yuanzi saw the reply, her cheeks immediately puffed up like a pufferfish: I obviously did my homework well!
She let out a breath, held up her phone properly, and nimbly put her arm around Soma Yukihira's shoulders.
"Look at the camera and smile."
Yukihira laughed subconsciously.
With a click, the photo was taken.
Yukihira Soma only had time to ask, "What's this for?"
Suzuki Sonoko continued to write the email seriously and replied without looking up: "Show it to my dad."
"What are you looking at?"
Hearing the boy's question, she took the time to raise her eyes and said seriously: "Of course, to see what I've been doing recently!"
Soma Yukihira's mind flashed through endless memes from various comics, novels, and TV dramas (all of which were his textbooks): when asked what he was doing recently, the answer would be his photo.
So for Ms. Suzuki, is the answer [him], or is it [recently trying to improve his favorability]?
If the answer is the former, then this is probably a dirty joke. If it is the latter, it is a subtle confession - but there is no difference in essence, it just depends on whether it is prohibited for people under 18 years old.
Soma Yukihira watched her humming a song and fiddling with her phone, seemingly not saying anything to him. He suddenly felt more like calling Polaris Dormitory: Am I being flirted with? Is it because I didn't respond appropriately when being flirted with?
Can I try again? I have no experience...
On the other side, Suzuki Sonoko was typing rapidly: This is the son of Saiba Seiichiro from back then. He is the binding person I chose for my brand. He has XXX talents, and the subsequent value is estimated to be XXX, and so on and so forth.
In fact, before Yuanzi entered the catering industry, she didn't know that a simple chef could have so much power.
It was only after reading the manager's analysis report that she truly understood: these days, the commercial value of celebrity chefs is so outstanding that it is almost comparable to that of top stars, and the Nakiri family, standing at the top of the culinary world, is not only one of the seven pure-blood families headed by Suou, but also ranks unexpectedly high.
Therefore, the value of a talent like Soma Yukihira who has the potential to become a culinary family (mainly starting from Seiichiro Saiba) is actually a little higher than she initially expected.
After sending the email, she seemed still angry and took out a tablet.
Yukihira saw her opening a software quickly, but he seemed to have never seen the APP she was using before.
After looking at it curiously for a long time, I couldn't help but ask: "What... is this for?"
Yuanzi stared at the screen with a bitter look on his face: "I'm buying land."
"ha?"
Ms. Suzuki took a deep breath and calmly explained to him, "This is kind of a membership-based electronic club...or something like that. It basically has all the information on any land that can be bought or sold in the country."
Although it is not as comprehensive and objective as the maps in her home, it has the advantage of fast data update, and once the selection is made, the buyer can be contacted quickly and the transaction can be completed in minutes.
No matter how many official procedures are still needed or whether you have obtained the real title deed, as long as the transaction is successful, you can directly allocate the purchased land, and before the formal transfer of ownership, the current owner of the land will also cooperate with your actions.
——If you want to build a building, as long as you confirm the transaction is completed here, even if the land is not yours for the time being, you can ask the construction team to move the house, and the owner will cooperate.
This is similar to private land transactions in ancient times, saving the time of waiting for procedures.
Soma Yukihira looked for a long time and barely recognized a familiar Shinkansen line. By analogy, he roughly knew where the map was.
"Aren't you afraid of being cheated?"
As a wealthy person, Suzuki Sonoko looked back at him in confusion.
The credibility of this kind of software that has achieved what it has today comes from the unspoken rules of the entire circle. Who would be so idle as to break a contract and play with it?
Although there are many large transactions, there are also businesses such as buying villas. People who can get this software have a basic threshold of wealth. It is embarrassing to refuse to acknowledge it for such a small amount of money.
Yukihira Soma felt subtly uncomfortable being looked at by her, but he didn't know why he should be uncomfortable, so he just subconsciously skipped the topic: "So what are you going to do now?"
"What?"
Under Soma Yukihira's puzzled gaze, Suzuki Sonoko quickly opened Namise's map, rotated it and enlarged it, and clicked randomly on the valid and optional red parts within the range. She didn't even look at the final amount displayed on the shopping cart (yes, although it was land that was bought, it was also called a shopping cart), and directly selected the option "Empty Shopping Cart".
Soma Yukihira thought he might be a little dizzy and didn't see clearly how many zeros followed the number.
Miss Suzuki sneered: "I'm in a bad mood, but I haven't figured out how to retaliate yet, so I'm going to buy this place first!"
The author has something to say: Yao Wang had just gotten off the bus after sleeping all the way, and he couldn't see much clearly due to his sleepy eyes. A normal person wouldn't think that when he asks a girl out for dinner, he would encounter an internal fight among the world's number one mafia. He was not in the right situation from beginning to end.
I only wrote 5000 out of the 8000 I promised. This part is a bit stuck, but I have found the rhythm to expand the Shura Field a second time. The rest of the writing will be smooth O(∩_∩)O
I will update 10,000 words tomorrow, and the specific 10,000 or so will depend on the situation, but I will definitely make up for the words I owe.
Finally, as usual, please leave a message. Good night everyone (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ
