Chapter 258 Chapter 258 The Hongmen Banquet.
256
The black car slowly stopped at the gate of the villa with the windows rolled down.
Reborn put his hand on the bed, like a charming Italian gentleman, and looked at Li Xiaoqi and Sakata Gintoki in front of the car and said, "Beautiful lady, handsome gentleman, get in the car."
Li Xiaoqi put on his hat and smiled, nodded slightly, and got into the back seat.
How could they deserve Reborn to be their driver? They really gave him face.
Sakata Gintoki coughed uncomfortably and whispered in Li Xiaoqi's ear: "As expected of an Italian, I feel like I'm being treated like a beauty..."
Reborn started the car, and seemed to hear Sakata Gintoki's whisper, and chuckled softly.
Li Xiaoqi raised his eyes and saw Reborn's slightly raised lips in the rearview mirror in front of him.
She was a little nervous for some reason, and like Sakata Gintoki, she remained silent all the way.
As the vehicle drove along, soothing music played on the speakers.
Reborn didn't seem nervous about tonight's party. Instead, he was very relaxed, letting his fingertips tap lightly on the steering wheel to the music.
Unconsciously, the slight tension in Li Xiaoqi's heart disappeared.
As they reached the sea level, Reborn spoke, "You're smart people. You should have seen that idiot Tsuna wasn't deceived... To be more precise, he regained consciousness when he met you, seemingly due to the Vongola ring. But Gokudera and Yamamoto haven't recovered. Only a ring with the properties of the Great Sky could affect Tsuna, and the ring's reaction only occurred after it met you."
Reborn's charming voice echoed with the melodious music, "Ms. Nana, you look just like the friend of the first Vongola, Giotto."
"I think this is probably why Tsuna's Vongola ring worked."
Li Xiaoqi was slightly stunned, remembering that the consciousness of each generation of Vongola leaders existed in the Vongola ring, and a complicated look flashed across his eyes.
Reborn noticed the subtle change in Li Xiaoqi's expression and slowly raised the corners of his lips.
"Although I don't know why the Ninth Daeme trusts you so much, but the Ninth Daeme will not do anything harmful to the Vongola. Based on this, I will still give you a certain amount of trust."
Sakata Gintoki leaned against the car window, his dark red eyes reflecting the scenery passing by outside the window.
"Thanks."
Li Xiaoqi said lightly.
Reborn raised his eyes and looked into Sakata Gintoki's eyes in the rearview mirror.
"Why do you think I'm not bewitched by Miss Jinguji?"
As he spoke, a strand of curly hair on his temples trembled slightly.
Li Xiaoqi lowered his eyes, knowing the answer in his heart.
Sakata Gintoki chuckled and said nonchalantly: "Perhaps Mr. Reborn has extraordinary abilities."
Reborn chuckled softly, "That's really flattering me."
No, you really do.
Li Xiaoqi complained in his heart.
This seemingly meaningless question was actually a test to see how much they knew about the Vongola and the Rainbow Children.
In response to this, Sakata Gintoki answered extremely cautiously.
"I heard from the ninth generation that Mr. Reborn is Mr. Sawada's tutor. He has been with him since his student days. He must be a very powerful person."
Li Xiaoqi raised the corners of his lips and flattered him with a top hat.
Reborn laughed out loud, seeming to be in a very good mood.
"snort."

At Yokohama Port, a huge white whale rests on the sea surface.
Reborn opened the car door very gentlemanly and stretched out his arm to lead Li Xiaoqi out.
Sakata Gintoki followed closely behind and saw the Vongola group led by Sawada Tsunayoshi at a glance. Jinguji Mai was standing among the men, wearing a silver-white snowflake-patterned fishtail skirt, her long pink hair tied up, and a feather hair accessory on the side of her ear.
He whistled and said jokingly, "It's really a red spot in the green."
Li Xiaoqi looked over when he heard the voice, crossed his arms, and smiled, "Indeed."
"Ms. Jinguji is indeed a beauty."
Jinguji Mai looked over, met Li Xiaoqi's eyes, smiled brightly, and greeted him warmly.
"Ms. Nana! Mr. Sakata—"
She ran over with her skirt lifted up, her steps light as a flying butterfly.
Sakata Gintoki frowned and slowly raised a smile.
Li Xiaoqi raised his eyebrows, looking interested: "She seems too light when she runs. Is she a killer?"
Sakata Gintoki couldn't deny it and gave him a meaningful smile.
"The subconscious habit gave herself away."
Suddenly, a breath passed by my ear.
Li Xiaoqi looked back in surprise and found that Reborn was very close to him.
Reborn pulled away, raising a brow slightly.
"It's not good to leave your back to others."
Li Xiaoqi: “…”
She fell silent and smiled helplessly.
The hem of her skirt fluttered in the sea breeze. Li Xiaoqi heard the sound of a car coming from not far away and turned around to look.
Several black cars were parked on the roadside at the port, and a group of men in black suits got out one after another.
Men in black suits lined up in two rows and stood respectfully on both sides of the car door.
The car door was pushed open, shiny black leather shoes stepped on the ground, and the sunlight fell on the dark red shirt.
The slender girl held up the black hat, her ochre hair fluttering in the wind.
Nakahara Chuuya narrowed his eyes slightly and saw the calm sea surface dyed with orange-red luster, and his gaze slowly shifted to the white whale.
He suddenly came to his senses, walked around to the other door and opened it.
Nakahara Chuuya wanted to show an expression of impatience, but since it was a formal occasion, he restrained his expression.
Dazai Osamu came out of the car, patted Chuuya Nakahara's shoulder, and said jokingly: "It's really hard for you, Chuuya."
"I want you to make such a respectful expression to me."
He raised the corners of his lips and lowered his voice deliberately.
Nakahara Chuuya instantly showed an expression of disgust, took a step back and glared at him.
"Shut up, I didn't!"
Dazai Osamu chuckled, and a star-like light flashed in his peripheral vision.
His gaze passed over the crowd and headed towards the shore, where he saw the Vongola group he had met on the street two days ago.
Among the group of people, Li Xiaoqi stood out in her dazzling starry sky dress.
Dazai Osamu pursed his lips, suddenly thinking of the underwater kiss.
At that time, he could see that Li Xiaoqi did not need to breathe on his own, and there were other ways to jump out of the water instantly.
But Dazai Osamu was like a possessed ghost at that time, he just wanted to hold her body tightly and bite her lips to taste her.
It was like he had wanted to do that for a long, long time.
After tasting it, although my mouth was full of the taste of sea water, my heart was strangely filled with satisfaction.
Dazai Osamu was very sure that he had different feelings for Li Xiaoqi, and he was 100% sure that in the missing memory, he had a good relationship with Li Xiaoqi and Sakata Gintoki.
He looked at Sakata Gintoki and slowly curled the corners of his lips, and suddenly an idea popped up in his mind.
Zhongyuan Zhongye saw his expression from the side and suddenly felt a chill on his back.
"You'd better not do anything bad to me!"
He warned.
Dazai Osamu said nonchalantly, "Hey, I know."
The sound of cars could be heard one after another, and Ozaki Koyo's voice came from far away.
"Really? How can a boss walk in the front?"
Ozaki Koha was dressed in gorgeous clothes and holding an umbrella, looking quite reprimanded.
Behind her, people from the Black Lizard group appeared one after another.
Ozaki Kouye looked behind him and ordered, "Except for Mr. Hirotsu, Jinghua, and Nakajima, come in with me. All of you stay outside."
Nakajima Atsushi looked at Izumi Kyoka and his eyes softened a little.
He was wearing a black suit and a white shirt, and the collar around his neck refracted the sunlight.
Like Ozaki Koyo, Izumi Kyoka changed into a gorgeous and formal black kimono embroidered with exquisite and intricate floral patterns.
"There are military personnel around."
When Nakajima Atsushi looked at Dazai Osamu, he suddenly became indifferent.
Dazai Osamu responded, "Of course, after all, the Vongola is here."
"Maybe someone with hounds will be dispatched."
He widened the smile on his lips and spoke in a calm tone, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
The corner of Nakahara Chuuya's mouth twitched, and he said, "Hey, don't act like it's none of your business."
Sawada Tsunayoshi noticed Dazai Osamu and nodded hello from a distance.
The red scarf fluttered, and Dazai Osamu nodded slightly in response.
There was a movement on the white whale, and the hatch opened. A blond man and a red-haired girl walked out. They were John and Lucy.
"Dear distinguished friends, the banquet is about to begin."
They made an inviting gesture and stood on either side of the hatch.
Suddenly, two cars arrived late, and people from the Armed Detective Agency got out one after another.
Fukuzawa Yukichi was in the lead, and the others stood in a row behind him.
The wind blew across their shoulders, bringing a solemn atmosphere.
“It’s a good momentum.”
Yamamoto Takeshi raised the corners of his lips and chuckled.
Sakata Gintoki looked at the detective agency and whistled.
“That’s quite a few.”
Li Xiaoqi sighed: "Yeah..."
She looked up at the corridor inside the cabin and slowly raised the corners of her lips.
"The Hongmen Banquet is about to begin."
Oda Sakunosuke glanced at everyone in the port and finally set his sights on Dazai Osamu.
A look of surprise flashed across his eyes, but what surprised him was not Dazai Osamu's identity as a mafia member, but the identity of the leader of the port mafia.
Oda Sakunosuke frowned, pursed his lips, and a complicated look passed across his brows.
"Well, first, please invite everyone from the Vongola to come in—"
Lucy shouted.
Li Xiaoqi and Sakata Gintoki followed the Vongola group and slowly walked up the stairs.
Reborn walked at the end, holding Li Xiaoqi's hand considerately.
Li Xiaoqi glanced back at the detective agency and saw that all the members were there. No one was trapped in the supernatural space by Lucy. He looked away without any expression.
Suddenly, she felt a pair of eyes glued to her back.
Li Xiaoqi saw Dazai Osamu in the crowd of people wearing black suits, and then he unexpectedly saw Dazai Osamu giving him a gentleman's salute.
“…”
She suddenly had a bad feeling.
Symphony music echoed in the main venue of Beluga, and the tables were filled with delicious food that was both intricately prepared and beautiful to look at.
Champagne towers were stacked high on the dining table, and members of the organization, dressed in butler uniforms, stood on one side.
One organization after another came in, but they did not communicate with each other hastily, but each occupied one area.
"Welcome everyone to my banquet."
Francis walked slowly down the stairs of the banquet hall, looking at everyone with a haughty glance.
At this moment, members of the organization began to move among the crowd, with expensive red wine on trays.
Li Xiaoqi calmly took the red wine glass from John's hand and shook it gently, without rushing to drink it.
She looked at Francis, who was the center of everyone's attention, and couldn't help feeling a little confused.
Is Francis making such a big show to lure the tiger away from the mountain?
But all his subordinates are here, not one is missing.
So how should he carry out his plan to destroy Yokohama?
