Chapter 373 Confrontation
Follow Dong Xiang to a bridge first, and leave after she leaves the unconscious ghoul in a dark corner.
The two continued to walk, and within a few minutes of rushing, they arrived in front of a coffee shop that was still open.
That's right, the so-called "Stable District" is a coffee shop.
It looks extremely ordinary.
Just an ordinary shop in the 20th district.
However, there are hidden horrific ghouls including the sss-level ghoul "Unkillable Owl", the ss-level ghoul "Magic Ape" and the ss-level ghoul "Black Dog".
Pushing open the door, Dong Xiang walked in, followed by Li Xuan.
"Dong Xiangjiang... welcome back." A woman in a coffee shop uniform with tied hair who was wiping the cup behind the counter couldn't help saying hello when she saw Dong Xiang pushing the door.
This seemingly ordinary coffee shop clerk is actually the SS-level ghoul "Black Dog" Irumi Xuan.
Because of a series of incidents, he was taken into the Anding District by the shopkeeper Fangcun Gongshan, and he gave up his previous name and lived in peace ever since.
"Well, I'm back." Dong Xiang took off the mask and looked around the environment of the store, "There are no customers now, so the store should be closed."
"It's almost there." Ru Jianxuan responded, and only then did she notice the figure behind Dong Xiang, "This is...?"
"Hello." Li Xuan greeted her first.
"Ah... hello." Ru Jianxuan couldn't help being taken aback when she saw Li Xuan's appearance, and then she replied slowly, then she turned to Dong Xiang and teased: "You look so good-looking, could it be Dong Xiang? little boyfriend?"
"That's not true." Dong Xiang retorted, "He said he knew the store manager and had something to do with the store manager, so I brought him here."
"Are you looking for the store manager?" Rujian Xuannian said, "The store manager went out with Sifang just now, and said that he will not be back until at least an hour."
"Did you hear that?" Dong Xiang looked at Li Xuan, "Are you going to wait here or go out?"
"Wait here." Li Xuan replied, sat on the chair in front of the counter very naturally, and said to Jianxuan, "Can I have a cup of coffee?"
"Of course." Ru Jianxuan showed a kind smile.
……
"Is that person human?" Turning over the sign that said "Business", from the corner of his eyes, Ru Jianxuan glanced at the figure sipping coffee in front of the counter, and asked Dong Xiang in a low voice.
Because Li Xuan deactivated the ghouls on the way, Ru Jianxuan was just like Dong Xiang before, and could only tell that the other party was an ordinary human being.
"No, it's a ghoul." Dong Xiang replied, "It just seems to be very good at pretending to be an ordinary human being... I also mistook it when I saw it just now, but he showed me how he turned into a ghoul."
"That's right..." Ru Jianxuan nodded, no doubt about him.
After all, ghouls can pretend to be ordinary humans, but ordinary humans cannot pretend to be ghouls by any means.
"Excuse me, is there any book I can read?" Li Xuan, who was sitting a bit bored over there, turned his head and asked the two of them.
"It's really troublesome." Dong Xiang read, took a book from the shelf and threw it at Li Xuan.
"The service attitude of the waitress is a bit bad." Li Xuan caught it and glanced at the cover.
"The Egg of the Black Goat"
Author: Izumi Takatsuki.
It's a book with a story.
He shook the book, thinking about it.
Turning the pages of the book, Li Xuan read it quietly.
Ru Jianxuan and Dong Xiang stopped talking and began to clean the coffee shop.
Li Xuan read a book quietly.
An hour passed in this silence.
"Jingle Bell……"
As the door bell rang, an old man with white hair and squinting eyes combed back came in, accompanied by a taller man with white hair and wearing a black windbreaker.
The old man is Fangcun Gongshan, and the man beside him is also a very powerful ghoul, Dong Xiang's uncle, the SS-level ghoul "Crow" Sifang Lianshi.
"Shop Manager, Lian Shi, welcome back." Ru Jianxuan stepped forward to greet her.
Dong Xiang also greeted.
"Well, I'm back." Fangcun Gongshan responded kindly.
Sifang Lianshi simply nodded.
"Oh? There are still guests?" Kozen Yoshimura glanced at the figure with his face buried in the book in front of the counter.
"The store manager..." Dong Xiang stepped forward and told Fangcun Gongshan about Li Xuan in a low voice.
"Are you an old acquaintance with me?" Kozen Yoshimura frowned slightly.
"Ah... You don't mind a lie I told in a hurry, do you?" The face buried in the book slightly lifted, facing Fangcun Gongshan.
It's just that the moment Li Xuan raised his face, Yoshimura Kozen's eyelids trembled, and his narrowed eyes gradually let go, revealing an incomparably sharp brilliance.
"Why...you are here...?" Kozen Yoshimura's words were full of heaviness and confusion.
Because the store manager had never shown such a gesture, the hearts of Ru Jianxuan and the others suddenly tightened.
His complexion became serious.
"You know me?" Li Xuan had doubts on his face.
"Of course I know..." Fangcun Gongshan said word by word: "The director of ACG...Li...Xuan..."
After the words fell, Sifang Lian said that she had already rushed in front of Li Xuan.
"Wait, Sifang." When Sifang was about to launch an attack, and Li Xuan was already planning to evade the other party's attack, Fangcun Gongshan shouted sternly.
Hearing the store manager's words, Sifang Lianshi stopped in a timely manner, took a few steps back, and returned to the store manager's side.
"Is it the enemy?" Dong Xiang's eyes were red, she didn't know what ACG was, but from the actions of the store manager and uncle, she could tell that the other party was definitely not one of her own.
"acg...the director of the Ghoul Countermeasures Administration in the United States...in our country, he is similar to the director of CCG." "Black Dog" Ru Jianxuan's eyes were also red, and he explained to Dong Xiang vigilantly road.
"Why... such a person... would..." Dong Xiang was a little stunned, "But I clearly saw that he turned into a ghoul!"
"Maybe it's a disguise of some high-tech artifact over there, or a special Quinker." The calm and steady Sifang Lianshi speculated.
"How come..." Dong Xiang felt guilty for a moment.
After all, she was the one who brought the other party here. Doesn't this completely expose the fact that the ordinary coffee shop in the "An Ding District" is a gathering place for ghouls?
"We can't let him go." He Zi stretched behind Dong Xiang, revealing his killing intent.
Her kichiko is like a burning flame, forming the posture of wings, one side is complete, and the other side seems to be folded in half, but even so, it looks extremely bright and beautiful.
"Calm down, Dong Xiang." Fangcun Gongshan said at this time.
"But……"
"Listen to the store manager, Dong Xiang." Sifang said.
"..." After the silence, He Zi gradually dissipated, and Dong Xiang responded: "I see, manager."
"I didn't mean anything malicious." Seeing the aggressive appearance of these people, Li Xuan closed the book, supported it on the counter, put his hand on his chin, and said gently, "So don't be too nervous."
