In the spacious banquet hall, before Gu Li took a seat, someone had already come to the banquet hall in advance and took a seat.
This is not to say that the people in the Soul Exorcist Society do not understand etiquette, but because the person sitting here is not affiliated with the Soul Exorcist Society, but belongs to the same department as Gu Li. Not only do they know each other, but they even have a close relationship.
We got together and had group fights when we were kids.
"So what did you do in the island country?"
The sitting posture of Gu Li was not very elegant. Compared with the islanders who were kneeling upright in front of the dining table, one of his legs was stretched straight forward, and the other leg was in an arched posture, with one hand resting on the arched position.
On his lap, it gave people a casual feeling as if he just found a place to sit down. Those who didn’t know better thought he was here for a picnic.
Ignoring the glances from those around him, he waved his hands to signal the two women who were slowly walking towards him. From a glance, he knew that they were the women arranged by Mishima to serve them, to go away.
Then, Gu Li focused his attention on the monk next to him who was wearing gray robes and a mask on his face.
"only you?"
Jiang Hao, who was wearing a mask, had been following Gu Li with his eyes since he entered the room, but at this moment he did not answer Gu Li's question. Instead, he asked about Gu Li.
"What you said, isn't Xiao Yu'er a human being?"
Gu Li still sat in that free and easy posture, and then pointed at Xiao Yu beside him.
Xiao Yu, who was beside him, did not express any words in this regard. He just waved his hand gently and said hello to Jiang Hao with a look of fear on his face.
"you know what I mean."
The person Jiang Hao was referring to was certainly not an ordinary person like Xiao Yu.
"He's here too."
Gu Li, who knew what Jiang Hao was asking, nodded slightly, and quietly and implicitly explained the fact that Li Leping was also here.
"Then let's wait until he comes."
Jiang Hao felt that it was better to do less than to do more. Since they met in Osaka, there must be a reason.
Maybe, they came to Osaka for the same reason?
During Gu Li's conversation with Jiang Hao, Gu Li's turning a blind eye to the Spirit-Expelling Society did not seem to cause President Mishima's displeasure, at least he did not let him show his displeasure on his face.
"Today's banquet is held to welcome Mr. Gu and Mr. Jiang. I welcome them both to come to the island despite their busy schedules. This is a great honor for our Soul Removing Society."
Instead, President Mishima raised his glass at this moment and toasted Gu Li, sounding very humble at the same time.
However, although President Mishima could pretend to have such a low profile, the other members of the Ghost Exorcist Club who participated in the banquet did not seem to be so easy to talk to.
There were not many seats arranged for this banquet, less than twenty seats at all times. Except for President Mishima who was trying to lighten the atmosphere at the moment, everyone else looked at Gu Li in different ways.
Gu Li, who was aware of these gazes, still had a faint smile on his lips, but at this moment, he suddenly sat up cross-legged seriously, picked up a small wine bottle and poured himself a glass, then raised the glass and looked at Mishima Society
The president, said politely to him: "President Mishima is so kind."
Then, he got back to the topic: "But President Mishima, my patience is limited. This superficial welcome ceremony means nothing to me. It would be better to give him something real."
The so-called meaningful things naturally refer to the confidential files in the hands of Zuling Club.
"That's natural."
Having talked to this extent, Mishima could no longer shirk and could only signal a member who had been waiting outside the attic to come in.
"Wang Xin."
The man named Wang Xin held a portfolio in his hand, handed it to Gu Li respectfully, and immediately left the venue.
After all, the people participating in this banquet are all high-ranking people in the island country. He, an ordinary person at the level of a team leader, may have some say outside, but at this banquet, the team leader of a department is still too much.
Not qualified anymore.
"President! These information were obtained by our members with their lives. How could it be given to these Chinese people so easily?"
However, at this moment, a very uncoordinated voice sounded. The speaker did not even lower his voice. It was as if he was deliberately speaking to Gu Li. He seemed to look down on him, the person in charge of the small headquarters, and planned to give it to Gu Li.
He suddenly showed off his power.
Xiao Yu, who was in charge of translating, also had anger on her face at this moment. She didn't even finish translating the man's words, she only mentioned to Gu Li the derogatory name he used to call her.
"Um?"
When he heard that insulting and scornful name that was specifically directed at his own country, Gu Li's body froze.
Then, he put aside the file bag he had just received and did not rush to open it. Instead, he looked contemptuously at the member of the Soul Exorcist Club who spoke, with a sinister sneer on his face: "There are little devils here.
The dog barks?”
As he spoke, he put his palms to his ears, making a gesture of "can't hear clearly".
"idiot!"
The moment this sentence was translated, the island man cursed violently and violently overturned the dining table in front of him. The food on the table was scattered all over the floor, and the plate fell to the ground with a "ping ping ping ping ping" sound.
.
A man with a sallow complexion and bone-thin skin stood up. His eyes were sinister, and the murderous intent in his eyes was clear, as if he wanted to tear the person in charge of Onishi City into pieces who fought back against him.
There is no doubt that the man who stood up is a ghost master. Not to mention the confused and cold aura on his body, it is not difficult to guess his identity just by looking at his sickly appearance.
"President Mishima, this is how you island people treat guests."
However, facing the fierce appearance of this ghost controller, Gu Li held the table with one hand, looking a little lazy, as if he didn't take this man with a fierce look at all.
President Mishima was also stunned at this moment. He was distracted for a moment. Apparently, he did not expect that there would be any members stirring up trouble at this time.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Asshole! Yamamura, sit down."
Soon, Mishima reacted and became anxious. He yelled loudly in an attempt to stop Yamamura's unreasonable behavior. At the same time, he also greeted Yamamura's whole family in his heart. However, the island nation did not have many curse words, so the language was capable of attacking.
Sex is obviously not strong enough.
However, regarding the president's orders, Yamamura turned a deaf ear to the president's orders just like most of the captains at the headquarters did to Cao Yanhua. He acted as if he had not heard them and still stood there as he did, with a arrogant look on his face.
"Your master has asked you to sit down, so why are you standing there? If you want to take action, just take action. Don't be like a turtle, crawling and not daring to show your head. Who are you standing there to watch? Let's finish it.
What’s the difference between a person who doesn’t dare to take action even if you say harsh words, and a waste?”
At this moment, Gu Li played with the small wine glass on the dining table. He didn't even look at the ghost master named Shancun. He just used words to fight back against the ghost master named Shancun, just like he must first take care of his heart before killing someone.
Killed.
As he spoke, Gu Li fiddled with the small wine glass, then raised his head and looked at the anxious Mishima in front of him, and then glanced at the fierce mountain village.
"President Mishima, it seems that your dog is really not very obedient."
Just after Xiao Yu translated this sentence to Mishima.
Shancun, who also heard these words, felt deeply humiliated and completely angered. He was already mentally unstable and stared at Gu Li at this moment. The fierceness on his face could no longer be concealed, and the look in his eyes could not be concealed.
The murderous intention was even more intense.
"Kill you!"
Shancun roared, and at the same time a cold aura overflowed from his body. The temperature of the banquet hall seemed to drop sharply with this cold aura, as if there was a ghost wandering around the banquet.
At the same time, other ghost masters at the banquet were also secretly watching.
"Find an opportunity to kill this reckless guy."
"Kill him while his attention is on Shancun."
Shancun was venting his dissatisfaction, but he also expressed the dissatisfaction of most people present.
Forget about the files on the ghost train incident. After all, it was just a supernatural incident that happened to pass through the island country by chance. The damage caused was not big. Just hand over the information about this part.
However, the most terrifying ghost temple incident can be said to have resulted in the loss of all the elite members of the Soul Exorcist Society. Many of you here even escaped from Tokyo. As a result, because of your words, the Exorcists have sacrificed a lot for this.
Is Lingshe going to hand over the archives with both hands?
How can people accept this, and where should the majesty of Chuling Society be placed?
It's just that most of the people here are unwilling to say this openly.
After all, the consequence of a head-on supernatural confrontation is that the resurgence of evil ghosts will deepen. For the ghost controllers of the Ghost Exorcist Society who have not even controlled two ghosts, they are obviously not willing to be the first person.
At this moment, every islander at the banquet had ulterior motives and was waiting for an opportunity.
But this thought had just arisen, at the moment when Shancun's words were spoken.
Gu Li, who was sitting quietly, suddenly slammed the table.
Suddenly.
Like an order to assemble, a white light lit up out of thin air, as if someone had unknowingly thrown a flashlight into the room. The dazzling light appeared around the mountain village without warning, shrouding him like a silkworm chrysalis.
Among them, the overflowing light immediately covered the entire banquet hall. Human eyes could not open in such light. The stinging pain in the eyes was even enough to make the ghost controller subconsciously close his eyes.
Don't dare to look at him.
This strange light is not an ordinary light, but a manifestation of supernatural power.
Although the dazzling light forced others to close their eyes and cover their eyes with their hands, trying to prevent the light from penetrating into the eyeballs through their eyelids.
"Damn it! What is this?!"
While everyone was subconsciously blocking the light in front of them, the mountain village that was completely enveloped by the light felt a kind of scorching heat. This scorching heat seemed like someone was burning every inch of his skin with lasers from all directions, causing terrible erosion.
It made him feel extremely hot all over, and even smelled like burnt food.
"Ah~!"
As if being roasted by Li Mei, Shancun's expression suddenly changed, and he let out a painful cry. The ghosts in his body were suppressed by the burning that penetrated the bone marrow, and he could not even resist.
"Mr. Gu! Please calm down, our Spirit-Expelling Society is willing to use materials in exchange for the life of the mountain village."
Mishima, who was blinded by the flash of bright light, insisted on shouting these words at this time.
He tried to exchange all available resources to return to the mountain village. After all, the Spirit-Expelling Society was currently short of manpower, and every ghost controller who died was equivalent to losing a piece of flesh.
However, just when he finished saying this, Xiao Yu didn't even have time to translate. The next second, the sudden light disappeared and disappeared in an instant, as if everything just now was just an illusion.
But as the light disappeared, it could be found that Shancun was lying on the ground at some point.
No, that's not right.
Because right now, the people around him couldn't even tell whether the person lying on the ground was Shancun.
This was a corpse that seemed to have been drained of moisture by the flames and burned to carbonization, and it was such a shrunken corpse that appeared in the original location of the mountain village.
For a moment, the banquet hall, which seemed a bit noisy because of the mountain village, fell into a dead silence.
In fact, everyone knows that when Yamamura shouts that scornful name, a fight will definitely break out in the banquet hall, because no normal ghost controller would allow himself to be insulted.
He doesn't have long to live. If he is still being ridiculed before death, then the ghost controller will be too aggrieved. He might as well just let go of Zisha on the spot, and then let the evil ghost revived in his body seek justice for him.
However, no one expected that this confrontation would end like this.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There is no earth-shattering back and forth between you and me, only unilateral crushing.
How many seconds did it take from the start to the end?
Three seconds? Five seconds?
In short, the charred corpse lying on the ground already showed the winner of this confrontation.
"Shancun, died like this?"
Some people murmured to themselves, extremely surprised by the scene in front of them.
Things ended too quickly. The sudden confrontation was over just as the others had evil intentions and planned to take advantage of the chaos to attack Gu Li.
Killing a ghost master is even easier than killing a chicken.
When killing a chicken, the chicken will at least flutter and dodge. It will not directly turn into a roasted chicken like now.
"Damn it, the gap is so big."
Many people were a little disheartened when they saw this, as if a basin of cold water had been poured into their hearts.
Some people present had seen Yang Jian take action before, and his ability to kill a ghost master in that instant was repeated again.
I thought that was a strength that only the captain of the headquarters should have, but judging from the current situation, doesn't it mean that any person in charge of the headquarters has such terrifying strength?
If Gu Li knew their exaggerated ideas, he would probably die laughing.
If everyone is really as good as Yang Jian, then why would the headquarters designate a captain plan?
Just get a captain position.
The reason why the mountain village can be killed quickly is actually very simple, that is, the mountain village is too weak.
A ghost controller who only controls one ghost, let alone the captain of the headquarters, will be killed in an instant if he encounters any ghost controller who has controlled three supernatural powers.
It can only be said that the level of these people in the island country is too low. Having never seen a truly top ghost controller going all out, they will subconsciously regard the dead as a reference, but have never thought about this reference at all.
It's too impatient.
This is just like a ghost controller who controls three ghosts can kill a mountain village in seconds, and a captain-level ghost controller can also kill a mountain village in seconds, but anyone who has seen the captain take action will never think that a ghost controller who controls three ghosts can compete with the captain.
.
"I observed it earlier and it seems that many people look at me with hostility. If anyone wants to vent that hostility, they can do it, one by one or in a group. It doesn't matter.
You guys, I just want to kill you and not bury you."
Gu Li picked up the file placed next to him and scanned the members of the Soul Exorcist Society in front of him one by one.
Wherever they looked, some people lowered their heads, some had panic and fear on their faces, and some pretended to be busy collecting corpses in the mountain village. In short, they were deliberately avoiding Gu Li's sight.
Dare to look him in the eye.
Looking at these dumb people, Gu Li smiled, picked up the small wine bottle and filled the wine glass, then picked up the wine glass and circled it in front of him.
As he circled around, he seemed to be sighing: "Knowing small etiquette but not great righteousness, being obsessive about trivial matters but not great virtue, focusing on trivial details but underestimating shame, being afraid of power but not being moral, the strong will be robbers and bandits, the weak will be humble.
It is your nature to disregard kindness and righteousness. This is a very appropriate word to describe you."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yu, who was the translator next to Gu Li, was stunned for a moment.
Not only because this sentence was a bit troublesome to translate, but also because she was afraid that once she said this sentence, the situation that had finally been stabilized might change again.
Immediately, she turned her head and looked at Jiang Hao beside her, with a bit of pleading in her eyes, as if she wanted Jiang Hao to personally persuade Gu Li, at least not to let the atmosphere suddenly drop to the freezing point because of these words.
However, Jiang Hao next to him didn't seem to hear this sentence at all. Instead, his attention was focused on the plates of sushi on the dining table. After studying it for a few seconds, he placed a pure person who would definitely not break the prohibition on meat and fish.
Put the vegetarian sushi in your mouth and chew it carefully.
"Don't look at that bald head. Translate quickly. Don't beautify it. Give me a literal translation. The more derogatory the meaning, the better. It must not be taken lightly."
Gu Li, who was ready to show off, didn't hear Xiao Yu's translation for a long time, and the hand holding the wine glass was a little sore. When he looked down, he found that she was actually watching the monk eating sushi.
What's going on?
Angrily, Gu Li curled his fingers and tapped the back of her head lightly.
Xiao Yu felt pain, muttered and glanced at Gu Li, and then was forced to bite the bullet and translate this sentence.
Although she gives people a timid and cowardly feeling, she is conscientious in her work. It can be said that she fully complied with Li Li's requirements and translated what he said completely without any mince-and-thin. Even her voice when translating was clear.
Much louder than usual.
But as soon as she finished translating, her whole body changed back to its original state, like a flower that withered just after it bloomed. She lowered her head again, looked at her index fingers hooked together, and did not dare to look at those who heard her translation.
What is the person's expression?
Classical Chinese is literally translated into everyday language habits. After being converted into Japanese, it is not difficult to imagine how ugly the sentences made from these words are.
But at this moment, even if these people in front of them are dissatisfied, they only dare to mutter in their hearts.
All kinds of negative emotions poured into my heart. Emotions such as surprise, anger, and unwillingness were conveyed through my eyes. However, this transmission only lasted for a moment. It was a subconscious behavior. Soon, rationality suppressed it.
Impulsively, these islanders who were ridiculed by Gu Li quickly put away the negative emotions in their eyes, and still did not dare to look at Gu Li, for fear that they would become the next unlucky person to be used to establish their authority.
Shancun's death is the best warning.
If you dare to take action, you will really die...
"No, I'm very sorry, Mr. Gu, about the mountain village..."
As the president, Mishima didn't dare to refute Gu Li's sarcasm. After calling his subordinates to take Yamamura's body into custody as soon as possible, he immediately stood up and bowed to apologize to Gu Li, with cold sweat breaking out on his face.
"President Mishima."
But before he could say anything, Gu Li put down his wine glass and interrupted him: "Stop apologizing. You islanders know how to bow and apologize. I'm afraid your waist will have to develop muscle memory, but after saying it,
After apologizing, we continued to do whatever we wanted to do, and no actual changes were seen."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As he said that, he sneered: "To be honest, President Mishima, why are you and I so coy and pretentious? I am from the headquarters, and you are from the Spirit Exorcist Society.
People, what is the state-to-state relationship between you and me? It’s not like you don’t know that old grudges have not been avenged, so it’s not too much for me to add some new grudges. In fact, if you and I were to exchange our status today, I’m afraid you would bully others even more.”
"Mr. Gu..."
Mishima was a little unwilling to give up and still wanted to express some apology, but Gu Li obviously had no intention of listening to his meaningless verbal apology. He only lowered his head and studied the file of supernatural events recorded by the island country.
Seeing his repulsive attitude, Mishima could only kneel down and sit back down unwillingly. At the same time, he waved his hand roughly, telling the beautiful kimono-wearing woman serving him to go away and not to be an eyesore.
Then, he poured himself a glass of wine and drank it all with a sad look on his face.
As for Gu Li and Xiao Yu, they began to study the file provided by the Spirit Removal Society. At this time, Jiang Hao walked up to him with a plate full of sushi.
"Eleven midnight."
Gu Li was still listening to Xiao Yu's translation, but at the same time he spoke for a while when Jiang Hao approached.
When Jiang Hao heard this time, he still seemed to be unhurried and unhurried. He even had the time to pick up another piece of sushi and chew it carefully.
But inevitably, under his seemingly calm disguise, Gu Li caught his eyes as he suddenly narrowed his eyes and paused for a moment.
"Sure enough, you want to go there too."
Gu Li narrowed his eyes and said with certainty.
Jiang Hao nodded without refuting.
It's a new day now.
And at eleven o'clock in the evening today, it was time for them to go to Kisaragi Station.
