Ultimate Assassin: Start as the sixth floor in the Continental Hotel

Chapter 279 Omakase Chef Customization

rainy night.

It's rainy night again.

Just as young men and women like to go to high-rise buildings to meet, killer organizations often like to hire killers on rainy nights.

The sound of rain can hide secrets, can't it?

The yellow taxi gradually stopped, and a figure got out, held up a black umbrella, and looked quietly at the Japanese food store across the road that played kawaii two-dimensional Japanese songs.

The store manager is a bald man with a towel tied to his head while handling the ingredients. The guys in the store are very busy. Perhaps because of the heavy rain, the seats outside the store are empty. The whole store is clean and tidy, full of Japanese style, and it is not very big. If it weren't for opening a store in a building, people who don't know it would think it is Japanese. The little street vendor over there.

The signboard on the store is very simple, with the word "Heike" hanging high in the air. Most people who come here to eat don't know the true origin of this store.

The black umbrella tilted back slightly, revealing the face of the person under the umbrella. She was a capable strong woman. Her black coat was blown violently by the wind. At this time, there was a lot of traffic on this street, but she was just She walked straight to the Japanese food store, regardless of whether there were cars on the road. From a distance, she could feel her resolute and resolute style of acting.

After saying "Welcome" in Japanese, the bald manager had a warm smile on his face and fed the scraps of the freshly processed ingredients to the cat lying in the corner. After wiping his hands with a towel, he placed a plate of Japanese food for his own use. The plate was placed in front of the new customer, he looked up at the woman in front of him, and actually said in very standard English without any Japanese accent:

"How can I help you?"

"Snapped."

The woman did not reply, but just looked at the store manager quietly, patted a black badge coin on the table, and pushed it towards the store manager.

The smile on the store manager's face gradually disappeared, and he looked at the Hui coins on the table with some confusion. For a second, his eyes changed, like a kitchen knife turning into a samurai sword, extremely sharp. Then, a faint smile appeared on his face, as if he had turned back into the ordinary bald Japanese food store manager: "The High Table Tribunal came very quickly."

"I have a mission here." The female judge said calmly. "It involves a rule-breaker who is resisting pursuit by the High Table."

"You are talking about 'Blood Dragon'." The store manager was not surprised. He even turned around and took an ingredient from the side. However, the ingredient did not look like ordinary fish. It was obviously smaller and had an emerald green color. rind. He just listened to the words of the female judge, looked at the judge's face, and skillfully dissected the fish in his hand with a table knife: "My apprentices are not lazy..."

"This Yanguo killer codenamed 'No. 6' has so far killed nearly 300 registered killers in the Continental Hotel, including the apprentices you sent." The female judge looked at the quick dissection in the hands of the store manager. The fish seemed to be watching some art performance, "You should have heard about him. Your apprentices are the sacrificers of the nickname 'Blood Dragon'. In the past two days, most of the killers who chased him died. It's all miserable, but your apprentice..."

"Seventy-seven of them died." The shop owner concentrated on handling the fish in his hand without changing his expression. "Most of the remaining ones had their hands and feet broken, and only his mask was visible."

"This blood dragon should still be a believer in nationalism."

"Oh? This is new information that I don't know." After hearing this, the female approving officer said with interest, "Why do you say that?"

"You may not understand that the number 77 is of great significance to the people of the Yan Kingdom." The shop owner gently threw the processed waste aside and said softly, "We in Japan had a war with the Yan Kingdom in the past, and these historical records Regarding the matter, Japan chose to downplay education, and foreign countries were basically not interested, while the Yanguo people..."

"Mostly remembered."

"I once traveled to the Yan Kingdom, and I can understand why the ancestors of Japan wanted the land of that country so much. Japan is too small, and everything is so barren. Mount Fuji is a high mountain to us, but not even a mountain to the people of the Yan Kingdom. It's a small hill." Originally there were two palm-sized fish, but after cutting off the excess parts, it was no more than the size of a finger. The bald store manager said calmly, "When I visited the capital of the Yan Kingdom, I saw their records of that period of history, and then I understood why they treated us Japanese people with such hatred. During the war between the Japanese and the Yan Kingdom, the Yan Kingdom at that time The country is a weak one, and the ancestors of Japan seem to have killed many people from the Yan country, even...including civilians."

"I have seen many Yanguo killers, but most of them just hate that period of history and will not choose to transfer their anger to us in tit for tat. It is said that the manager of the Osaka Continental Hotel has a good relationship with a Yanguo assassin. And the Blood Dragon The means... He seems to be deliberately responding to our pursuit in a cruel way."

"I didn't expect the ninja master of the 'Taiping Family' to say so many things..." the female judge said meaningfully, "Are you trying to say that you think this task is difficult, so you are not interested in taking it?"

"No, this task is not difficult. I am also interested in the 'Blood Dragon'." The store manager looked at the female inquisitor with a calm expression and said softly, "Very, interested."

The store manager took out a pair of extended chopsticks and gently placed the prepared fish meat on the plate in front of the female judge. "Puffer fish, fatally poisonous."

"No soy sauce."

The female judge just looked at the store manager, and in front of him, she picked up the pufferfish meat on the plate with her hands, threw it directly into her mouth, chewed it provocatively, and then swallowed.

Blowfish, Very fatal, No soy. These are the store manager's actual words, and Soy also means "sissy, coward" in slang. The underlying meaning of this sentence is...

The "Tai Ping Family" serves their employer like the puffer fish meat, is as deadly as the puffer fish poison, and has no cowards like the plate of puffer fish.

After the female judge swallowed the pufferfish meat in her mouth, the shop owner and the clerk behind him stood at attention.

"I have been loyal and I will obey."

The hands are folded on the abdomen and the upper body is slightly leaned forward. This is not only the store manager's respect for the diners enjoying the food, but also the killer's respect for the high table club that hired him.

The store manager at this time, no, should not call him the store manager. One minute ago, he was still the harmless manager and chef of a Japanese restaurant, but now, he has taken off the headscarf representing the chef.

His name is "Zero".

The seventh generation of the "Taipei Family" of the Japanese Koga-ryu ninja group, Zero.

The female judge put away the badge coins on the table and stood up slowly: "In addition to dealing with the 'Blood Dragon'... I also need your help to find someone."

"Please tell me." The store manager said softly without raising his head.

"John Wick." The female inquisitor turned around slowly. "I want you to help me find John Wick."

"Find or kill?" the store manager asked doubtfully.

"If you can kill him."

The female judge left after saying these words.

The store manager slowly raised his head and remained silent.

After a while, the corners of his mouth raised a slight arc.

"Night Stalker?"

"It's getting more interesting."
