The three of them followed Keiko to Xiao Linngling's room. Keiko found a seat and sat down, and turned her attention to Sato Haranosuke.
"Before you came here, didn't your father tell you what we do? Do you know Honda's identity?"
Sato Haranosuke shook his head and looked at Sato Haranosuke with a questioning expression.
Just kidding, I wasn’t the one who knew about these things with my father at that time! Sister Lingzi! You shouldn’t know either!
Baili Lingzi also shook his head as expected, indicating that he didn't know either, because Mr. Isaburo had never told him what Mr. Honda did.
"Since I haven't told you before, I'll tell you now!"
Keiko's attitude became serious at this time: "On the surface, Honda and I are the owner and the proprietress of this pub. But in fact, we are gangsters."
"Yakuza?!"
Xiao Langling had seen this kind of underworld in the TV series Polo Family. Bad guys who run gambling houses, violently collect loans and other violent methods are often not good people who work here.
However, in this business, they can indeed get what they want through abnormal means. If serious means cannot achieve the goal, they can only seek their help.
"That's right."
Keiko continued to explain: "If some shogunate forces belong to the overt forces of Yinghai Kingdom, then those of us who live in darkness belong to the secret forces of Yinghai Kingdom."
"But you don't have to worry. Although the underworld does not sound like a good thing, in fact it does exist, but we are different. We take it as our duty to maintain the underground forces and the stability of this city."
"So, we want to get the health certificates of our partners stamped by the Lord of Guancheng. Can you really do it?"
"You can rest assured about this. When Honda comes back, you just need to get him to agree to help you. This kind of trivial matter is completely fine."
"I'm back!"
At this time, a rough voice came from outside, and Keiko smiled and said to the three of them.
"The person you are waiting for is here, please wait a moment."
After saying that, Keiko got up and walked outside. There was a conversation between Keiko and a man who sounded very stern in tone (language: Yinghai Chinese).
Keiko's voice: "Oh! My dear, you are back! Come! Kiss

one!"
Man's voice: "Wait! I..."
"Boo~!"
The man's voice: "Okay! Enough is enough! Why don't you go to the counter to greet the guests? Leave it to other Ada. If an accident occurs, he won't be able to handle it at all!"
Keiko's voice: "Because I have to welcome guests! Those guests are here to see you, and they are waiting inside."
"Oh, you're looking for me? I understand. You go to the counter and do your job. As for the customers, leave it to me."
After a moment, as the door opened, a middle-aged man in black robe, probably in his forties, walked in.
The middle-aged man was solemn and solemn, with a serious face. Xiao Langling could not feel the fluctuations of a warrior's energy from him, and he seemed to be an ordinary person.
However, if an ordinary person can become the boss of Guancheng's underground forces, he must have considerable abilities.
"Oh...it's just a few children..."
Because the other party spoke the Japanese language, Sato Haranosuke, the only one who could speak the Japanese language, answered his question immediately.
"Hello, Mr. Honda! I am Sato Haranosuke, the son of Isaburo Sato, and these two are my companions in China. We have something that needs sir's help!"
"Isaburo Sato...I see, was he the one who recommended you to come to me?"
Honda's initially doubtful attitude became much calmer, and he immediately turned around and pushed the door open.
"Come with me, guys! This place is really not suitable for entertaining guests!"
Xiao Langling, Sato Isaburo, and Baili Lingzi followed Mr. Honda out of the room and came to the reception room.
There are no bench seats in the reception room here, only cushions and low tables.
Seeing the kneeling postures of Mr. Honda and Sato Haranosuke, Xiao Linngling and Baili Lingzi followed the local customs and learned to kneel.
However, Baili Lingzi, who tried to sit on his knees for the first time, was still not used to it. He was not a warrior and his body was very flexible. So just after sitting down, Baili Lingzi felt that his legs were stretched.
uncomfortable.
"Girls don't have to follow the customs of our Yinghai country. You can sit however you feel comfortable!"
"Very good!"
Baili Lingzi changed her posture, with her legs stacked and stretched out, with Jelly on her elbows, leaning over Jelly, assuming a noble side-sitting posture.
"It's more comfortable this way
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
My legs are going numb sitting like that."
Afterwards, several women dressed as maids came in and served them tea, snacks, Yinghai special snacks and other food. It seemed that they were very considerate in entertaining the guests.
"Wow! So many delicious foods! Sakura cakes, octopus balls! And fried shrimp balls... This is really great! Awww! Delicious!"
Seeing Sato Haranosuke who had been conquered by the delicious food, Xiao Lingling and Baili Lingzi felt very angry.
"Hey! Xiaosuke! Don't worry about eating! We are not here to eat!"
"It doesn't matter, I can speak the language of China and communicate with you directly."
Although Mr. Honda is an ordinary person, he has pointed out the key points of Xiao Linngling's worries. After all, Sato Haranosuke is the only one among them who can speak and translate the Yinghai language.
If Xiaosuke only cares about eating... But Mr. Honda can easily see through this. It seems that Mr. Honda has a very keen consciousness.
"Mr. Honda, we need to ask you to help us complete our mission!" Then, Xiao Langling told the other party the purpose and mission of their coming, as well as the recent events in China.
After hearing this, Mr. Honda did not show much surprise.
"Is the plague 'Corruption'? So that's what you call this plague. Okay, let's call it 'Corruption'. To be honest, the plague 'Corruption' did originate from Yinghai Kingdom!"
"About a year ago, the right-wing militants of the Yinghai Kingdom, I don't know who they were, researched this plague. But because of the clues provided by the inserted informants, the left-wing peaceful elements of the Yinghai Kingdom immediately sent people to clear out the
graduate School."
"It was originally cleaned up. But I didn't expect it to be used as a weapon in China."
"Please help us, Mr. Honda!"
Baili Lingzi said with a pleading tone: "If the corruption plague in Shenzhou Kingdom is not alleviated, I am afraid it will affect the entire Huanwu Continent! It is even impossible to say that the Yinghai Kingdom will not be able to avoid that day..."
"I can help you." Mr. Honda's words immediately gave the three of them hope, but the next words made them realize that it was not that simple.
"But there is no free lunch in the world for me to help you! I can't help you in vain!"
