Super Zoo-Chapter 762 - 741 Why is your face so red!
Strictly speaking, Liuchuan Feng was quite an outstanding young man, with exceptional work capabilities, robust bravery, an innocent nature, and unwavering loyalty to the royal family; he possessed the pride and integrity common to young geniuses.
But he was a bit naive.
The young woman, as if looking at an idiot, examined this handsome guy who looked very much like Eddie Peng for a while before poking her head into the room and disdainfully pouted, "Two big men, what's the fun in that? It would be better if I called another girl over, or we three could have some fun too, but that would cost extra..."
Liuchuan Feng, who didn't blink an eye in combat or murder, now blushed slightly, looking somewhat awkward. Momotaro coughed and took out several hundred Hong Kong dollars, handing them to the woman with a smile, "Thank you for the offer, but we've got work later tonight and would like to rest a bit more."
The woman took the money without hesitation, stuffing it into the gap of her neckline, then pushed out her ample chest and asked with a grin, "Sir, are you sure you don't want any services?"
Momotaro shook his head with a smile, indicating it really wasn't necessary.
Seeing his firm attitude, the woman didn't insist any longer. She turned to leave, muttering under her breath, "A couple of dead queers, deserve to get their backsides blasted their whole life, let me make a quick few hundred then..."
"Senior, why did you give that despicable woman money! It's an insult to our royal ninja honor!" Liuchuan Feng said indignantly.
"Alright, young man, this isn't Mount Fuji's training camp, nor the royal palace; it's not necessary to always tout honor," Momotaro lay back down on the bed, eyes slightly closed, and said indifferently, "Don't offend these trivial people; though they can't accomplish anything significant, they can easily spoil things. Speaking of honor, a true ninja who feels honor should be prepared to cast aside all personal vanity to carry out the sovereign's commands."
Upon hearing the last sentence, Liuchuan Feng's expression became earnest, "Senior is absolutely right; I've learned something new!"
"Now, rest for a while. If nothing happens in an hour, we can head back," Momotaro said indifferently.
...
Just as the young woman went downstairs and passed the corner of the staircase, several people sitting at the lobby's sofa stood up simultaneously—among them were Daozai, Huoshan, and three other individuals who appeared to be gang leaders.
"Are they there?" a fat man with a protruding belly asked.
"Ma Wang, I had a clear view. They're the two guys Daozai mentioned," the woman whispered.
"Excellent!" Ma Wang gave the woman's perky buttocks a hearty slap and said with a contented smile, "You don't need to pay your dues this month."
"Ma Wang, you sure know how to treat someone right," the woman giggled, trembling all over.
Huoshan glanced at the corner of the stairs, lowered his voice, and asked the others, "Everyone is here; do we make our move now?"
"Wait a second," Ma Wang shook his head, "I heard from Jixiang that those two have martial arts training and are tough fighters. If we go at them hard, they might barricade themselves in the room and put up a stubborn resistance, which could lead to heavy losses for us."
"So what do we do? Jixiang's order can't be ignored," one of Jixiang's direct subordinates said coldly.
"Hehehe, Jiang Bao, have you forgotten my nickname? Ma Wang, no matter how wild the horse, once in my hands, can be tamed completely," Ma Wang said with a sly grin, took out two bottles of mineral water, then fetched a small bottle of drugs from a small refrigerator's fresh-keeping compartment, injected it into the mineral water bottle cap with a fine needle, shook it vigorously, and then handed it to the owner of Lijing Grand Hotel.
"You know what to do, right?" Ma Wang asked,
The hotel owner, that fat uncle who had been picking his nose the whole time, chuckled and nodded. He had another identity—a member of Shenghe.
...
Thud, thud, thud!
Momotaro and Liuchuan Feng had barely lain down when the door was knocked on again.
Both of them frowned, their eyes flickering with a strong sense of vigilance.
This time, they didn't immediately go to open the door, instead, they quickly rolled off the bed and crouched in a corner of the room, holding darts in their hands, warily staring at the door.
Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud... The knocking persisted, accompanied by a very impatient voice: "Stop messing around, open up, open up, there's a treat for you..."
Recognizing the voice as the boss's, Momotaro rolled over, jumped down from the top of the cabinet, one hand behind his back, and opened the door with the other.
"Wow, do you have to be so into whatever you're doing?" The chubby boss wasn't digging his nose this time—he had no hands... He was holding two bottles of mineral water, "Just now, the police notified us that the water pipe burst, and the hotel's water is cut off. So, don't say Uncle is stingy, I'm giving each of you a bottle of water to drink. If you want more, come buy it at the bar, twenty dollars a bottle."
After saying that, he casually tossed the two bottles onto the bed and walked away.
"These inexplicable Xiangjiang people, don't they understand what manners are, disturbing the guests' rest over and over again!" Liuchuan Feng said with a look of annoyance.
"Do you expect the English to raise a true gentleman? Hmph, the British Empire itself is made up of a bunch of pirates."
Momotaro scoffed disdainfully. After being on edge all day, he was actually a bit thirsty, and casually twisted open a bottle of water to drink.
"Senior, wait a moment..." Liuchuan Feng stopped Momotaro, speaking cautiously, "The water delivered by the other party, could it be unsafe? I think it might be better to check it first."
Momotaro let out a chuckle, patted Liuchuan Feng on the shoulder: "It's good to be cautious, but there's no need to be oversuspicious. It's not the shogunate era anymore, and poisoning is outdated. Besides, that fatty had a floaty step, clearly an ordinary person, how could he think of poisoning? Moreover, if there were poison, he would show signs of nervousness, at least he would urge us to drink, but look at him, he just threw the water and left, obviously not caring whether we drink it or not."
He concluded with firm certainty, "He must be hoping that after we finish drinking, we would go spend money to buy more, and that's where he makes his profit!"
"Oh, oh, oh..." Liuchuan Feng, skilled in martial arts but lacking in the subtleties of human interactions, listened intently to Momotaro's analysis and kept nodding, "Senior, you're right, I've learned again! These cunning merchants!"
"You young people must learn more if you are to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the royal family." Momotaro twisted open the cap, handed a bottle to Liuchuan Feng, and took another for himself.
Gulp, gulp, gulp, the two of them drank half a bottle each in a few gulps.
Then they lay back down on the bed to rest.
This time, however, they couldn't rest well.
Liuchuan Feng lay on the bed, and for some reason, the image of the scantily clad woman who had knocked on the door earlier came to mind.
Her trembling chest, slightly chubby waist, and large buttocks, tightly wrapped in a leather skirt, creating a round and full shape that wiggled and jiggled provocatively, kept reappearing in his mind.
What he had originally regarded with deep disdain, not even wanting to take a second glance at such vulgar display, was now sending a wave of heat through his lower abdomen.
"Damn it, why am I like this! This is so depraved!" Liuchuan Feng despised himself deeply, trying with all his might to banish the image of the young woman's twisting body from his mind, but the harder he tried, the more uncomfortable it became.
"No, I absolutely cannot betray Princess Jiako, not even in my mind!" Liuchuan Feng sat up abruptly from the bed, panting heavily!
There was only one bed. The two ninjas each took one end to sleep. As Liuchuan Feng sat up, he immediately noticed that Momotaro across from him had a flushed face, as if he was on fire.
"Senior, what's wrong with you! Why is your face so red!" Liuchuan Feng exclaimed in shock!
Almost simultaneously, Momotaro was equally shocked and blurted out as well: "Your face is so red too!"
—————— End of Chapter ——————
Happy National Day, everyone, eat and drink well!
If you're getting on the highway, remember to bring a wider empty bottle... Speaking of which, I was stuck on the overpass last night, and I searched the entire car, finding only small-mouthed mineral water bottles that cost one dollar and fifty cents each, nothing would fit in! When I got home, I almost exploded from holding it in. Tragic!
Eh, why are your faces so red?
