"...That, that was just an accident!" Shuten-dōji's expression changed immediately. He glared at Song Mengmeng, gritting his teeth.
Song Mengmeng's original purpose was not to provoke Shuten-dōji, so when she saw that her reminder had worked, she did not dwell on the matter. Instead, she simply changed the subject and asked about Shuten-dōji's purpose in coming.
Let's get down to business!
"To be honest, our Yagi Co., Ltd. recently came into contact with a project for cooperation. As a tourism project between Japan and China, we have undertaken the construction of a hot spring bath next to Mingshan Ancient Town."
Regardless of the true nature of our company, we must still strictly follow the rules in carrying out our work!
As you know, hot springs vary greatly in their formation due to different reasons and the different mineral elements in the earth.
Some hot springs have therapeutic effects, while others contain deadly toxins!
Therefore, after signing the project, we naturally needed to come and investigate the hot spring water quality!
Wang Wei thought it would be safer to leave such troublesome matters to professionals. However, to his surprise, as soon as he said this, the eyes of the three girls in front of him all revealed a strange look.
This made Wang Wei feel somewhat uneasy and guilty. He blinked and asked, puzzled, "What's wrong? Was there something wrong with my suggestion?!"
Theoretically, there shouldn't be any problem, but...
"There's nothing wrong with that, but... but you don't know, Hu Yue and Mengmeng have always been partners!"
Sometimes, Inspector Hu Yue even has to ask Mengmeng for help!
Bai Wei couldn't bear to see this simpleton continue to embarrass himself, so she sighed softly and, with a hint of unease, revealed to Wang Wei the truth he didn't know.
"..."
Wang Wei experienced a direct pupillary earthquake.
But Yao Anna, who was standing next to him, wasn't going to let him off the hook. She stabbed him in the heart again: "You don't know who the friend Mengmeng was talking about is, do you? It's Inspector Hu Yue!"
"..."
Let him die!
This series of actions left Wang Wei speechless. He weakly hid to the side to avoid the embarrassment. Meanwhile, Song Mengmeng and Bai Wei didn't say anything more. After briefly discussing the evening's itinerary, they sent Song Mengmeng and Yao Anna out to shop.
Actually, you don't need to prepare too many things for the evening.
Although Song Mengmeng and her friends' main purpose for this trip was not to go to the hot springs, they still had to make some preparations to avoid attracting attention.
So on this trip, I bought quite a lot of random things.
When Song Mengmeng returned to the guesthouse, she didn't expect to meet an uninvited guest in the lobby.
"What are you doing here?!" Song Mengmeng raised an eyebrow, staring warily at Shuten-dōji, who was standing in the middle of the hall, clearly captivating the girls around him.
They haven't seen each other since their last collaboration.
They didn't even say goodbye when they left Cyprus!
Because Song Mengmeng knew very well that the two sides were originally hostile to each other.
It's called a collaboration, but it's really just a matter of each side getting what they want!
After everyone took what they wanted, this cooperation, which was obviously more hypocritical than a castle in the air, was bound to become sand in the wind, unable to withstand any scrutiny, and would soon dissipate with a gust of wind.
However, she could see clearly that Shuten-dōji in front of her was deliberately being pretentious. He looked at Song Mengmeng with a hurt expression, as if he were looking at a heartless man who had started a relationship and then abandoned her.
"Mengmeng, we've been through thick and thin together! It's not right for you to try and distance yourself from me like this!"
However, Song Mengmeng didn't even bother to give Shuten-dōji a proper expression in response to his act. She snorted and looked at him with disdain, saying, "Don't bother acting in front of me!"
Do you really think I don't know what you're plotting?!
"Alright, alright, I really have something to discuss with you this time." Seeing that Song Mengmeng had no intention of befriending him, Shuten-dōji put away his joking tone. He raised both hands and gave Song Mengmeng a French military salute, then smiled and said the purpose of his trip: "I've come to find someone."
"Looking for someone?!" Song Mengmeng frowned, her gaze towards Shuten-dōji filled with suspicion: "Has your company become addicted to embarrassing itself lately?!"
"I'm not joking with you this time," Shuten-dōji said, gesturing to Song Mengmeng to come to the tea room next door to talk.
Yao Anna originally wanted to stay and keep Song Mengmeng company, but before she could speak, she heard Song Mengmeng say to her, "Sister Anna, why don't you take your things upstairs to Sister Weiwei and help her tidy up?"
"Oh, be careful then." Yao Anna glanced at Shuten-dōji with some concern, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't leave immediately. Instead, she stood there looking at Song Mengmeng with a hint of worry: "But, are you really okay on your own?!"
Although she couldn't find any record of Shuten-dōji in her memory, he always gave her a very familiar feeling.
Moreover, this feeling was not good; she subconsciously felt that this person was not a good person and was very dangerous!
"I don't eat people!" Shuten-dōji was almost laughing in exasperation at Yao Anna's dawdling and reluctance to leave.
