Chapter 125 Ramen and Drawing Lots



Four o'clock in the morning.

Shinjuku District, Tokyo.

A not very prosperous area.

Xishenlian slowly descended from the sky as if it were nothing.

Arrived silently at the edge of a street.

"It's probably right here..."

After glancing around for a while.

Xi Shenlian saw his target a few hundred meters away.

It was an old 45-story building that looked like it had at least several decades of history. There was a huge plaque hanging outside - [Chashanben Kaisha].

It is not at all conspicuous among the surrounding buildings.

But that building is currently the most active place among all the surrounding buildings.

Even now, you can still see lights of various colors faintly shining inside many rooms.

I think there are still quite a few people carrying out activities there.

It was far from being completely dark like the rest of the buildings.

This can only be said to be due to differences in business, which leads to differences in everyone's working hours.

The various important businesses that [Chashanben Company] is engaged in are indeed a bit difficult to carry out in broad daylight. They can only do small businesses such as online fraud and telecommunications fraud. The late night is their home ground and the main business hours for various large businesses.

[Assist AI: According to observation, today is the day of the other party's New Year's meeting, so most of the members will be present. In addition, since the feud with the Huanyue Family has been completely ignited, the forces that hired them to attack Huanyue Meiying will be their strategic allies today. They will also send people to discuss other cooperation with them to jointly deal with the Huanyue Family...]

"It seems like we've arrived at the right time."

After muttering softly.

Xi Shenlian walked slowly towards the [Chashan Main Company].

And, he casually asked the auxiliary AI:

"How many people are there in that building?"

[Assisted AI: According to the internal surveillance records, there are a total of 2,455 people in there, including 1,725 ​​men, 709 women, and 21 transgender people. Among them, there are 1,459 pure gang members, and the rest are fraud industry practitioners who engage in fraud business under them, thieves who steal things...]

Listening to various intelligence.

Xi Shenlian shook her head.

"More than 2,000..."

'Do we need to kill them all?'

"Then, should we deal with the enemy family of Huanyue Family?"

"Since I'm already out here, why not go one more time and get the job done?"

After all, one should be a good person to the end and send the Buddha to the west. Since he was already planning to help Huanyue Meiying, it didn't seem so difficult to accept to send the entire family of her enemy to the west.

perhaps……

The main thing that Xi Shenlian is a little confused about is that killing so many people in a modern city seems a bit excessive?

That’s too bad!

Then, Xi Shenlian smelled a smell, the smell of ramen.

"...I haven't had ramen in a while. I've been eating more expensive food..."

Think of this.

His head immediately turned in the direction where the fragrance came from.

The source of the fragrance is a small roadside shop that looks like it has been open for many years.

The overall decoration is also very ordinary, without any outstanding features.

Looking through the window, you can see a few middle-aged men sitting there, eating, drinking, and bragging. It's quite lively.

“…”

After thinking for a while.

Xi Shenlian thought that maybe she could have a midnight snack and maybe draw a lot at the same time.

So, he changed direction and walked slowly towards the ramen shop.

As soon as Xi Shenlian walked into the store, she immediately caught the attention of the owners, an elderly couple.

Even the other guests who were dining became quieter, no longer daring to talk loudly, and became much more polite.

As a husband and wife shop.

In this kind of shop, men are usually responsible for cooking, while women are responsible for greeting, taking orders, serving food, and handling miscellaneous chores.

So after the woman in the couple looked at Xi Shenlian's clothes and temperament, although she felt that Xi Shenlian was not the kind of person who would eat in such a roadside restaurant, she still asked respectfully with a nervous look:

"Sir, are you here for dinner?"

The tone was a little uneasy, which was the instinctive respect and fear of a small person towards a big person.

Not caring about the other person's feelings.

Xi Shenlian calmly looked at the good hygiene conditions in the store and said:

"Yes, one person, give me a serving of the best ramen you have here, and make me a few of your best side dishes."

The woman nodded and said, "Okay..."

Then, after thinking for two seconds, he began to announce the dishes one after another:

"One deluxe tonkotsu seafood ramen, three freshly fried lobsters, three skewers of charcoal-grilled yakitori, two matcha daifuku, one fried sea urchin, one red bean meatball... What do you think?"

This amount of food is enough for two people.

Xi Shenlian nodded:

"Okay, how much is it in total?"

"Sixteen thousand five hundred yen."

The most common ramen is usually around 1,000 yen, and it is normal for better ramen to cost 2,000 to 3,000 yen or even more. The so-called deluxe pork bone and seafood ramen plus a few other dishes costs a total of neither expensive nor cheap, which is roughly two days' salary for most workers.

If it were an ordinary person, it might be a little painful.

But the woman didn't think that someone dressed like Xi Shenlian would care about such a small amount of money, so she just told them all the best food the store had.

Xi Shenlian really didn't care about the so-called price, and casually took out two 10,000 yen notes:

Keep the change, please.

“How long will it take for the food to be served?”

After silently estimating her husband's cooking efficiency.

The woman said respectfully:

"Um...it will probably take about ten minutes."

Xi Shenlian nodded:

"Okay, you guys prepare the dishes. I'm going to do something over there first, and I'll come back to eat in a few minutes."

"Yes, please rest assured."

After saying that, the woman reached out to take the money and politely bowed to Xi Shenlian who turned and left.

What she didn't know was that Xi Shenlian was thinking about something very calmly at this moment.

"The first digit of the total price is an odd number. It looks like we'll have to kill everyone in that building..."

"And even the total number of dishes is an odd number. I'll have to run again later..."

Before entering the store.

Because I'm too lazy to make a decision.

Xi Shenlian had actually already thought it through. If the first digit of the amount of this consumption was an odd number, he would kill all the people in the [Chashan Company]. If the first digit was an even number, he would only kill a part of them.

As for the odd or even number of dishes, it would affect whether he would make an extra trip to the enemy forces of the Huanyue Family and kill the entire family.

Everything seemed like a draw.

After drawing the lottery, he slowly walked towards the Tea Mountain Company. The diners in the roadside shop who were a little nervous at first relaxed again and said to their companions with a smile:

"That young man just now was really scary!"

"It's totally not the type we can get in touch with..."

"I didn't expect that even such a big shot would eat at a street shop..."

Listen to these conversations.

Even the male shop owner who had been silent just now couldn't help but boast with a look of pride on his face:

"The taste and quality of our restaurant is not inferior to many big restaurants. It is natural for people to come and eat here..."

For ordinary people.

Being able to meet Xishenlian might be something worth bragging about.
