NOVEL WEB Chapter 23 Peak Acting Skills
"You are very smart, but it is a pity that you have inferred these." Tamiya Ryoko stood up and prepared to leave.
"Your child has not yet been born. If he really comes to this world, are you sure the parasitic beasts will accept him?"
When she was about to leave, Xia Shang said again, "This is also a cooperation, and it is beneficial to both of us."
"Why don't you think about it again?"
Tamiya Ryoko didn't say anything and left the cafe.
Facing Tamiya Ryoko's departure, Xia Shang still drank coffee calmly. He put his mobile phone in front of him, as if waiting for something.
ten minutes later.
A text message suddenly popped up on the phone screen.
"You are despicable, but I still have to congratulate you because you convinced me."
Immediately afterwards, Xia Shang received an address, which marked a ramen shop in the foothold area.
"Despicability is the passport of the despicable, and nobility is the epitaph of the noble. Sometimes, being mean is more effective than being noble." Xia Shang shook his head. After drinking the last sip of coffee, he took a taxi and prepared to go to the foothold area of Tokyo. .
Compared to other bustling areas in Tokyo, Tachibashi Ward is much more deserted, and because the residents of Tachibashi Ward have a relatively high proportion of low-income residents, the public security here is very poor.
Xia Shang, who was sitting in the taxi along the way, could clearly feel the difference between the foothold area and Ginza in Tokyo.
Gangsters standing idle on the streets can be seen everywhere here, and no one cleans up the garbage on the roadside. There are even a lot of homeless people. Looking at these scenes, Xia Shang once thought that he had arrived in a slum in Japan.
No wonder the parasitic beasts chose to open a restaurant here because they planned to raise humans by themselves.
Xia Shang guessed that there should be more than one parasitic beast in the ramen shop that Tamiya Ryoko sent him. That girl is a dangerous person and full of bad intentions, so he must be more cautious.
Soon, Xia Shang asked the driver to stop. According to the road signs, he estimated that the ramen shop should be deep in the alley.
"The parasitic beasts should hunt for food late at night." Xia Shang lowered his head and looked at the time on his phone. There were still two hours until dark.
During these two hours, he needed to prepare something to make sure nothing went wrong.
He first found an agricultural supply store, which specialized in selling pesticides, plant seeds, and even agricultural machinery. For example, Xia Shang saw a short-handled electric saw on the shelf. Unfortunately, although that thing was very lethal, it was too heavy to carry around. It's obvious.
"Excuse me, which pesticide here is more toxic? My grandfather's melon field is almost eaten by insects."
The owner of the agricultural supplies store was a middle-aged man. He turned his attention from the newspaper in his hand to Xia Shang.
Seeing that Xia Shang was younger, he couldn't help but frown.
"The kind of pesticide you want is a restricted level and we don't sell it to individuals."
"Ten thousand." Seeing that the boss really didn't intend to sell it, Xia Shang took out 10,000 yen from his wallet without saying a word and put it on the counter.
Seeing the 10,000 in cash on the counter, the boss was obviously a little moved, but he still lowered his head and looked at the newspaper: "We only sell to agricultural cooperatives. If you want it, you might as well ask them."
Are pesticides regulated so strictly in Japan? He offered 10,000 yen but the other party refused to sell it.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and continued to take out 10,000 yen and said: "You may have misunderstood. I don't want to commit suicide by taking medicine. Besides, even if I committed suicide, why would I choose the most painful way?"
His words made the agricultural supplies store owner look up at him again.
"Are you sure you don't want to use it to commit suicide or kill someone?"
"I swear to God."
"Okay, please wait a moment." The boss swore that he definitely didn't sell the medicine to Xia Shang because of the money, but because he couldn't bear to see the melon fields in Xia Shang's property being destroyed, so he sold the medicine to Xia Shang. he.
"This is an organophosphorus pesticide, and it is also a concentrated solution. Be careful when using it. Once this thing enters the human body, it can quickly cause death." The boss handed a bottle of medicine with English labels to Xia Shang, and at the same time , put the 20,000 yen on the counter into his pocket.
Xia Shang was very satisfied with the effect of the medicine described by his boss.
Later, he bought a few syringes from a small clinic not far next door.
By the time everything was ready, the sky was getting darker.
When Xia Shang was walking on the roadside, he always saw drunken people passing by him. However, what made him even more strange was that there would always be a person beside these drunkards to support them and help them. Take them to the alley.
If it weren't for the fact that most of those people were men, Xia Shang would have thought it was a shady deal.
"Is it a parasitic beast?" Xia Shang stared closely at the back of one of them.
The man seemed to be aware of it and turned to look at Xia Shang.
His dull expression and emotionless eyes instantly revealed his true identity.
"That's right, only parasitic beasts have that kind of expression. It seems that this place is probably one of the parasitic beast's lairs. Tamiya Ryoko led me here, and it turned out that he had bad intentions." Xia Shang did not look at each other too much. For a long time, he turned around and left.
With his current strength, it would be difficult to deal with even one parasitic beast, let alone at least four parasitic beasts in front of him.
He came to a nearby park, then sat on a bench, silently closing his eyes and meditating.
Until the time is almost up.
He just opened his eyes and walked towards the alley. On the way, he bought a can of white wine, unscrewed the lid, took a sip, and poured the remaining wine on his clothes, pretending to be a drunkard.
Sure enough, after a while, a thin man pretended to be familiar with Xia Shang and hurriedly came to help Xia Shang.
"Oda-kun, I just saw you in the distance. Why did you drink so much?"
The man spoke in a stiff tone, but it had an effect. At least the pedestrians on the roadside would not look at them strangely.
"Who are you?" Xia Shang opened his sleepy eyes and asked vaguely.
"I'm Tanaka, your neighbor, don't you remember?"
In other words, Xia Shang has used what he has learned throughout his life, and now he is definitely at the peak of his acting skills.
"I have an impression. Come on, I'll take you to drink. We won't come back until we get drunk."
Xia Shang took the man and walked to the park nearby. At this time, the park was empty.
The man hesitated for a while, and finally followed Xia Shang. Although it was not his usual place to kill people, judging from the current time, it would not be discovered by others, but it would be more troublesome to deal with the body in the end.
"Tanaka, help me over." Xia Shang pointed to the chair in front of him.
Under the illumination of the street lamp, Tanaka's reflection appeared on the ground in front of Xia Shang, and the head of the reflection split in all directions like a flower, revealing countless sharp teeth.
