Chapter 259 Chapter 259 "She fell down by herself." ...
259
The dazzling crystal chandeliers lit up with bright and dazzling light. At the main venue of the White Whale Banquet, there was no applause after Francis' speech, only the symphony sounded alone.
Francis stood on the stairs with an embarrassed look on his face, and no one responded to his words.
He raised the corner of his lips and coughed lightly, "Everyone is so indifferent."
"Or is it that the forces at the scene are too complicated?"
Fukuzawa Yukichi folded his arms, took a step forward, and gave Francis a questioning look.
"I'd like to ask, what is your purpose in calling us here?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the Vongola and the Port Mafia focused on Fukuzawa Yukichi and Francis.
Francis widened his smile and did not answer Fukuzawa Yukichi's question.
"Nothing much... Just treat it as a normal party. Let's get the party started!"
Dazai Osamu stood beside the long table, with Nakahara Chuuya, Ozaki Koyo, and Nakajima Atsushi standing behind him in that order.
He had a calm smile on his face, as if he didn't care what the purpose of this banquet was.
Ozaki Kouye raised her eyebrows slightly and covered her lips with her hand.
Nakahara Chuuya lowered the brim of his hat and sneered softly.
"An ordinary banquet? Who would believe that?"
Suddenly, Rambo's voice echoed throughout the banquet hall.
"You're such a nice person for inviting us over for dinner."
Thus, the Vongola side became the focus of attention.
Sawada Tsunayoshi and Jinguji Mai were surrounded by a group of guardians, while his fiancée Li Xiaoqi was outside the guardian's protection circle.
Sakata Gintoki and Reborn stood on both sides of Li Xiaoqi, two steps away from Sawada Tsunayoshi and his group.
Francis looked at Li Xiaoqi, then glanced at Sawada Tsunayoshi, feeling a little surprised.
"Then, we would like to invite the Tenth Generation of the Vongola, Mr. Sawada, and his fiancée, Ms. Sakata, to lead the dance."
Suddenly, two lights fell on Sawada Tsunayoshi and Li Xiaoqi.
In an instant, the expressions of everyone in the Vongola and Port Mafia changed.
Gokudera Hayato showed a surprised look and said, "How is it possible? The name of the tenth generation is known, but his face is well protected. How could he recognize it?"
An irritated look crossed Hibari Kyoya's face, and he snorted, "They can get all of you to attend the banquet, and they also require all Guardians to be present. Don't they know the Vongola personnel information?"
Yamamoto Takeshi frowned slightly, and a serious look passed across his face.
Oda Sakunosuke frowned and looked at Li Xiaoqi with a surprised expression.
He swallowed and raised his hand to scratch his head helplessly.
Ryunosuke Akutagawa stared at Nakajima Atsushi with a fierce look in his eyes.
Then he looked at Dazai Osamu, but there was no sign of Gin beside him.
Suddenly, someone patted his head.
Akutagawa Ryunosuke was stunned and looked to his side, meeting Yosano Akiko's gaze.
"Akutagawa, calm down. You're like a dog ready to bite someone."
Akutagawa Ryunosuke turned his head away without answering.
The lights cast a hazy glow on Sawada Tsunayoshi and Li Xiaoqi. Suddenly, Sawada Tsunayoshi stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "Sorry, I have a dance partner."
He looked at Mai Jinguji beside him and extended his hand to her.
"Xiao Wu, I want to dance with you."
Sawada Tsunayoshi frowned, the light fell on his face, making the tenderness in his eyes dazzling.
Jinguji Mai was a little dazed, took his hand, and said with a smile: "I'm honored."
In an instant, there was an uproar at the scene, and everyone's eyes turned to Li Xiaoqi.
As the leader of the Mafia, he actually ignored his fiancée and invited another woman to dance. Isn't this a slap in the face of the organization?
Even Francis was surprised by Sawada Tsunayoshi's behavior.
"That's too much."
Lucy stood aside, muttering in dissatisfaction.
She happened to be standing next to the port mafia and was heard by Nakajima Atsushi.
Nakajima Atsushi looked over and his cold gaze fell on Lucy.
Lucy couldn't help but shiver, cold sweat appeared on her forehead, and she took a few steps back to avoid his sight.
Dazai Osamu raised the corners of his lips, interest flashing in his eyes.
He walked towards Li Xiaoqi and stopped directly in front of him.
A look of surprise flashed across Nakahara Chuuya's face and Ozaki Kouyo looked at each other.
But they did not stop him, but let Dazai Osamu act.
"Is this really okay?"
Nakajima Atsushi asked coldly.
Izumi Kyoka looked at Ozaki Koyo with a questioning look.
Ozaki Kouye smiled slightly and whispered, "How could the Tenth Generation of Vongola be so stupid? He is using his fiancée to give us an answer."
Nakahara Chuuya nodded slightly and said, "Our previous cooperation with the Vongola is now finalized."
"Boss, inviting that lady to dance proves that our organization has a friendly and cooperative relationship with the Vongola."
"However, in order to avoid appearing inferior to the Vongola, the timing is just right."
Nakajima Atsushi and Izumi Kyoka nodded slightly and looked at Dazai Osamu.
As an assassination team, they rarely participate in such glamorous social occasions.
However, Ozaki Koyo did not neglect to teach them about interests within the organization.
Dazai Osamu faced Li Xiaoqi, bowed like a gentleman, and made a gesture of invitation to dance.
"Will you dance with me, beautiful lady?"
Li Xiaoqi looked at Sawada Tsunayoshi, who had a calm expression and his gaze was focused on Jinguji Mai.
Seeing that Sawada Tsunayoshi had no intention of stopping her, she suddenly understood what he meant.
Li Xiaoqi performed a skirt-lifting gesture and accepted Dazai Osamu's invitation.
Kunikida Doppo frowned, his expression serious.
"Oops."
Miyano Kenji showed a curious look and asked, "That's strange, isn't Miss Nana the fiancée of that gentleman?"
"Why didn't you invite your fiancée, but someone else instead? Ah, is Mr. Sawada a scumbag?"
His words echoed in everyone's ears, and most people's eyes fell on Sawada Tsunayoshi again.
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "..."
He fell silent and smiled back.
Kunikida Doppo raised his hand to his forehead, regretting that he did not cover Miyano Kenji's mouth.
Yosano Akiko pursed her lips and turned her head away to suppress her laughter.
Kunikida Doppo said angrily, "This shows that the Vongola and the Port Mafia are now on the same side, and we are the only one left alone."
Oda Sakunosuke took a deep breath and said, "From the very beginning."
Francis observed the expressions of everyone and suddenly realized what was happening, frowning frivolously.
He looked at Alcott, who nodded slightly.
Francis strode to the center of the dance floor, clapped his hands twice, and the symphony played dance music.
Li Xiaoqi put his hand on Dazai Osamu's shoulder and looked at Sawada Tsunayoshi and Jinguji Mai through his shoulder.
She frowned slightly, came to her senses and met Dazai Osamu's gaze.
His grip tightened slightly, a teasing look in his eyes.
Dazai Osamu was still wearing the same black suit as always, with the red scarf around his neck fluttering gently.
Black hair brushed against his cheeks, and the light from the crystal chandelier above his head was swallowed by Dazai Osamu's eyes.
"Why, don't you care about Sawada Tsunayoshi?"
Taking advantage of the moment when they were close to each other, Dazai Osamu asked in a low voice.
Li Xiaoqi arched his eyebrows and smiled, "I don't care, but I'm curious about what he's going to do."
Dazai Osamu pondered for a moment, a look of admiration flashing across his eyes.
"Indeed, I'm curious too."
"I didn't expect he would agree to us in this way."
"You really don't care about your face at all, poor tool Miss Nana."
"How about being my fiancée?"
Li Xiaoqi raised his eyebrows and said, "If I agree, will you rescue me from the Vongola?"
Dazai Osamu raised the corner of his lips and asked, "Why 'save'?"
"Why not? If I agree to this, wouldn't I be a traitor to the Vongola?"
Li Xiaoqi asked back.
"Besides, which side is the tool?"
Suddenly, there was a smile in Dazai Osamu's eyes.
The music suddenly stopped and the song ended.
Li Xiaoqi bowed politely and walked straight back to between Sakata Gintoki and Reborn.
Reborn chuckled and looked into Li Xiaoqi's eyes.
"It seems like the boss of the port mafia is very interested in you."
As soon as the words fell, the voice of administrator June appeared in the minds of Li Xiaoqi and Sakata Gintoki.
"Ting ting! Congratulations to host Li Xiaoqi, Dazai Osamu's favorability has increased by 10 points. Currently, Dazai Osamu's favorability is 50 points."
"Friendly reminder, streamer Sakata Gintoki's progress is slow, please speed up the game."
Suddenly, Sakata Gintoki stood still as if struck by lightning, completely oblivious to everything.
Hey, you don't want me to be gay, do you?
Sakata Gintoki cast a horrified look at Li Xiaoqi. Li Xiaoqi looked at him with pity and shook his head helplessly.
Reborn raised his eyebrows expressionlessly when he saw the interaction between the two.
The banquet went on as usual, with Sawada Tsunayoshi and Li Xiaoqi's dance as a signal, the Vongola and the Port Mafia gradually started to communicate.
The members of the organization were busy moving around the banquet hall, without any special movements.
The Armed Detective Agency was isolated and ate the food on their plates.
Fukuzawa Yukichi remained calm and expressionless.
Whenever Akutagawa Ryunosuke got impulsive and wanted to find Dazai Osamu, he would be held tightly by Oda Sakunosuke.
A normal banquet seems peaceful and calm.
Li Xiaoqi went to the bathroom halfway, and when he came back he met Jinguji Mai at the corner of the stairs.
A slight blush appeared on Jinguji Mai's face, and she leaned on the wall, breathing slightly.
Seeing that she seemed a little tipsy, Li Xiaoqi kindly reminded her, "Ms. Jinguji, don't relax too much in the enemy's territory."
She looked down the stairs and saw the main venue of the banquet.
Jinguji Mai opened her lips slightly, "I'm sorry."
She raised her head, her eyes moist, kicked her feet, and fell backwards.
Li Xiaoqi blinked slowly and was about to hold her hand, but an unknown force made her unable to exert any strength even when she stretched out her hand.
The sound of □□ hitting the stairs was heard, and Jinguji Mai tumbled down the spiral staircase.
In an instant, Jinguji Mai burst into screams, and everyone's attention was focused on Li Xiaoqi and Jinguji Mai.
A voice came from the communicator next to Chuuya Nakahara's ear, and the next second his face turned dark.
"Q, missing."
The carpet was soaked with blood, and Mai Jinguji was lying on the ground with her long hair disheveled.
She weakly supported her upper body, "Why..."
What why!
You're not going to ask me why I pushed you down!
This script is so embarrassing that I have to deduct three bedrooms and a living room from my apartment!
The corners of Li Xiaoqi's mouth twitched, his hand froze in mid-air, and he slowly withdrew his hand under the gaze of everyone.
Miyano Kenji raised his hand, blinked his big eyes and said, "Um... I'm sorry, Miss Nana didn't push her down, Miss Jinguji fell down by herself."
Jinguji Mai: “…”
She was slightly stunned, but there was no panic on her face. Instead, there was a look of relaxation in her eyes.
