Chapter 104 Gu Wenyu: Brother, my sister said she is an exorcist (asking for monthly tickets)
The morning of July 17th, Roppongi Grand Hotel.
After asking Blue Arc about the "Mirror World", Black Pupa returned to his hotel room smoothly. He took off his restraints, closed his eyes and lay on the bed for a while.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door in the hotel corridor, followed by Gu Zhuo'an's hoarse voice:
"Wenyu, do you know where Qiye went?"
Ji Minghuan turned over and lay on the pillow. He yawned, smacked his lips, and pretended to be still asleep and said, "Brother? He should go for a morning run. He usually has the habit of doing so."
Yes, yes, morning jogging, the kind of morning jogging that is as fast as lightning, it is fucking scary.
He added in his mind.
Gu Zhuoan was silent for a while: "Is that so." He paused, "When Qiye comes back, tell him that I have something to tell him. Ask him to wait for me at the hotel."
"oh oh……"
While responding this, Ji Minghuan thought in his heart: "Dad, you are not planning to reveal your identity to big brother... Don't affect the morale of the army at this time. If big brother knew that you are Gui Zhong, how would he have the mind to prepare for the auction in a few days?" Thinking of this, a new sound of footsteps was heard in the aisle.
"Brother?" Relying on the senses of the restraints, Ji Minghuan quickly identified the owner of the footsteps.
In the corridor, Gu Qiye looked up from his mobile phone screen and saw Gu Zhuo'an parked at the door of the room.
Gu Zhuoan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Gu Qinye, with a gleam in his eyes.
After a long silence, he slowly said, "Qiye, are you free? I want to... chat with you."
Gu Qiye looked into his eyes silently, then looked away after a moment and spoke.
"I'm busy. I have an appointment with a friend. We can talk when we return to China."
After a pause, he said sarcastically, "Only if you hadn't suddenly lost contact at that time."
Gu Zhuoan opened his mouth but could not speak. He put one hand on his waist, lowered his head, and uttered a hoarse voice from his throat:
"Okay, let's talk about it after we return home."
However, at this moment, with a "click", someone opened the door and came out, jumping between the two of them.
"Dad, brother, do you want to go eat sushi?" Ji Minghuan picked up his phone and showed the two of them a sushi restaurant on Xiaohongshu.
"I……"
Gu Qiye was stunned, and then he lied to his father, saying that he had an appointment with a friend, but he didn't want to refuse his younger brother.
"What do you mean?" Ji Minghuan said gloomily, "You haven't seen anyone all day. It's a rare occasion for you to come to Japan, but you only had dinner with me once. I was planning to let you treat me a few more times."
"All right."
Looking at his brother's funny expression, Gu Qinye couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay... let's go get sushi, daddy's treat."
As Gu Zhuoan spoke, he forced a smile on his face and raised his hand slightly to touch Gu Wenyu's hair.
"Uncle Ghost Zhong, can you please stop touching my head? Damn it, you beat me up the night before last and I'm traumatized. I'm really afraid you'll smash my head against the wall the next second."
Ji Minghuan smacked his lips and complained secretly.
His feeling was like that Tathagata Buddha's big hand was touching Sun Wukong's head, and all his hair was almost pulled out. He was afraid that he would be thrown under the Five Elements Mountain and locked up for hundreds of fucking years.
"Xiao Yu, where is that store?" Gu Qinye asked.
Ji Minghuan put his phone into his trouser pocket and replied, "It's nearby, just a few steps away. I've been there before with my friends and I know the way, so we don't need a map or navigation."
"Friend?" Gu Qinye asked curiously.
"That's the young lady you saw on the street before. Have you forgotten her?"
"Oh, that woman..." At this point, Gu Qinye was suddenly stunned and stopped talking.
He suddenly recalled the night he first came to Tokyo, and he took a look at the friend that Gu Wenyu mentioned from a distance. At that time, he took a quick look at the other person, and only remembered the other person's outfit, but had no impression of his face.
But now that I think about it, my brother's friend's outfit, windbreaker, beret, is obviously...
Ke...Qi Rui?
This name slowly flashed in Gu Qinye's mind.
He opened his eyes slightly, and his thoughts were running wild for a moment.
Ke Qirui is Wen Yu’s friend?
Why... does my brother know her?
For someone who has been living a double life for many years, it feels like two worlds that were originally completely unconnected suddenly intersect, and a certain order is collapsing, as if two parallel trains are about to collide...
The whole world seemed to be drowned in the sound of the train whistle.
Gu Qiye looked up in surprise and slowly looked at Ji Minghuan who had already walked to the front of the elevator.
"Brother, what are you daydreaming about?" Ji Minghuan waved at him and said unhappily, "Dad is treating us, why don't you hurry up and leave? Will there be another opportunity like this next time?"
Gu Qiye was stunned for a while, and forced out an unnatural smile:
“Here I come.”
The three of them took the elevator downstairs, left the Roppongi Hotel, and walked for about ten minutes to reach the sushi restaurant.
This sushi restaurant is hidden in a gray building complex in the back alley of Roppongi Hills. A 30-centimeter-wide cypress vertical plaque hangs above the stone steps, engraved with the ink-colored lacquer characters "すきやばし次郎".
The cypress sliding door was pulled with a "clang clang" sound, and it slid half a meter to the right, and three people entered the store.
Ji Minghuan led the father and son to sit down at the cypress bar that could seat ten people, then picked up the menu and skillfully ticked the items on it with a pencil. Soon, he had ordered all the dishes.
He knew how rich Ghost Bell and Blue Arc were. A super criminal and a popular idol, their assets were probably enough to buy ten sushi restaurants like this.
So they ordered the dishes without any ambiguity, as if the word "stingy" did not exist in the dictionary.
He raised his head and wanted to hand the menu to Gu Qinye and Gu Zhuoan, but when he saw that they looked thoughtful, he rolled his eyes, ignored the two and stretched out his arm to hand the menu to the waiter.
The waiter took the menu, gave him a sweet smile and said:
"My dear guest, the two ladies who accompanied you last time are not here this time."
In order to fit the character of this body, Ji Minghuan replied in the broken Japanese he learned from the TV series:
"Uh... Yoshi, those two... those two flowers, flower girls, are busy talking about love, hello!"
The waiter didn't understand what he said, he just smiled and turned away.
Ji Minghuan admired his own social skills. He took a sip of hot tea, glanced at the stuffy girl sitting on his left, and then looked at the stuffy girl sitting on his right.
The expressions of father and son are very similar.
At this moment, Gu Zhuoan was thinking about how to talk to Gu Qinye and mention the matter of "Blue Arc".
He couldn't just say, "Qi Ye, you are Lan Hu, right?"
Having not communicated with his children for many years, he really couldn't find a starting point for a topic.
Gu Qiye on the other side was thinking: Why does Ke Qirui know his brother? This is really strange. Is it just a coincidence? In fact, Wen Yu has nothing to do with the world of the exorcist, but this coincidence is too far-fetched.
Seeing that neither of them was talking, Ji Minghuan was kind enough to start a conversation with some explosive topics to liven up the family atmosphere.
He said, "Oh, yeah, let me tell you, my sister was acting crazy with me again the other day."
"Wheat?" Gu Zhuoan glanced at him sideways.
"What's wrong with her?" Gu Qinye asked curiously.
Ji Minghuan sighed, raised his hand to support his cheek, and said nonchalantly:
"She suddenly sent me a voice message on her phone, saying something like 'Brother, I'm actually an exorcist'. Her tone was so serious that I even suspected she had gone crazy playing games."
He paused for a moment, then turned to look at Gu Zhuo'an: "Dad, do you think we should take Su Zimai to an Internet addiction treatment center after we return home to help him get rid of his addiction?"
However, what responded to him was silence, a deathly silence. Neither Gu Zhuoan nor Gu Qinye spoke. The lines on their faces were tense and their facial expressions were as stiff as iron.
It was as if two human statues stood on his left and right sides.
Perhaps even Xia Pingzhou's stone statue of the queen is not as lifelike as the father and son - if they participate in a statue imitation competition, they will definitely win first place.
A second later, the father and son came back to their senses, and a hint of surprise flashed in their pupils at the same time.
As if they had been electrocuted, unconcealable surprise and shock were revealed on their faces at the same time - this was the first time that Ji Minghuan felt that there were similarities between Gui Zhong and Lan Hu.
"Pfft..." Ji Minghuan puffed up his cheeks slightly, took a sip of tea, and tried not to laugh out loud.
"The Exorcist?" "She said... the Exorcist?"
After a moment of dead silence, the two broke the silence in unison.
Ji Minghuan was stunned: "Come on, why do you look like you want to eat me?"
He nodded and said with a strange look on his face, "Yeah, yeah... Sister is talking about 'The Exorcist'. Seeing your strange reactions, is this some kind of cult?"
Gu Zhuoan stood there in a daze, his pupils shrank to the size of wheat ears, then he slowly lowered his head and raised his hand to support his forehead.
His face was shrouded in shadows, and he thought to himself, "How could it be, how could it be... the exorcist? Why did Xiaomai know about the exorcist?"
On the other side, Gu Qiye put the back of his hand against his mouth, lowered his face, and stared at the bar table with his eyes moving.
He was thinking in awe: "Ke Qirui and Wenyu are friends, and... Wenyu also said that Xiaomai suddenly came to him and said that she was an exorcist? No, it has come to this point, this can't be a coincidence."
Thinking of this, Gu Qinye was stunned, as if a bolt of lightning had struck his mind.
He took out his cell phone from his pocket, opened the text messages, looked at the chat history with Hei Pupa, and found a passage.
[Blue Arc: Let me ask you a question. Who is that girl named Ke Zinan? I think she is weird.]
[Black Pupa: It's not a hero's job to pry into a woman's privacy. You'll find out sooner or later.]
His eyes moved up and down, repeatedly examining the line of words written by the black pupa. The words reflected in his pupils seemed to be about to collapse completely.
At this moment, the strange feeling he had when he saw that "Ke Zinan" suddenly flashed through Gu Qiye's mind...
Cold sweat trickled down his forehead, and he murmured, "Could it be that... that girl is..."
At this moment, Ji Minghuan raised his eyes from the teacup and quietly looked at Gu Qiye's gloomy face.
He thought: "That's right... Using the identity of Hei Pupa to reveal my sister's identity would be suspected of betraying my partner, but if I use the identity of Gu Wenyu, there would be no problem."
"Besides, if my sister hadn't been such a bitch herself and told me that she was an exorcist, how could an 'ordinary person' like me know about this?"
"You can't blame me, sister. Anyway, I don't know what the concept of 'exorcist' is. What's wrong with casually mentioning it in front of my brother and father? It's not a big deal."
Thinking of this, Ji Minghuan held the edge of the teacup with his mouth and looked around happily.
It was as if he entered the "victory settlement interface" when playing a game. After observing Gu Qinye's expression, he turned his head and began to appreciate Gu Zhuoan's expression.
At this moment, Ji Minghuan was suddenly stunned.
Gu Zhuo'an was seen holding his forehead with his hand, his elbow trembling slightly on the bar. His face was full of dark lines, and his pupils were glowing slightly red in the shadows of his face.
"It's over. Dad is not going to enter the second stage, right?"
He was horrified.
