1179 Trapped Like a Turtle in the Jar (1/2)

Tang Xiu could tell that Mine Takeno's patience had reached its limits after seeing his expression. The chance was high that the guy would storm over if he kept stimulating him. But the chief purpose of coming to this place was to lure a certain snake out of its hole and trap it like a turtle in a jar before catching it. Tang Xiu didn't want to kill Mine Takeno before Ki Kitagawa came so as to avoid the latter noticing that something was amiss and decide not to come.

”Killing off an enmity is better than keeping it alive, huh? What a wise saying! Thanks a bunch for the advice and good lesson. Anyhow, I apologize for causing such a big scene here. People say grievances can be settled with wine and a meal, so shall this wine be on my tab for the purpose.” Looking apologetic, Tang Xiu patted his chest and spoke.

Mine Takeno was secretly relieved after hearing this. He was really afraid that this bastard would spit out something he couldn't stand, for fear that he lost his patience and kill him.

”You came from afar, as a host, it's just natural that I can't let you be the party host, Mister. It's all on me. However, please wait for a while for my men to clean up these bodies first.”

”Please.”

Tang Xiu nested himself on the sofa with a leg atop the other. After swinging his hand, he saw a few bottles of sealed beers lying on the floor next to the sofa and immediately picked up a bottle. He then opened the cap and leisurely drank it.

Time passed.

The tall and ferocious-looking Kumaji Mogu along with tens of stalwart men flushed into the nightclub in an aggressive manner. Upon seeing Mine Takeno directing his men to clean up dead bodies and bloodstains on the floor, he instantly shouted as loud as he could in fluent English, ”HOLY COW!!! Which bastard bullied my buddy?!! That damn Inari Society? Where the fuck is that miscreant Head of Inari, Mine Takeno? This Big Daddy will definitely mutilate you today!”

Mine Takeno turned around and furrowed his brows after seeing Kumaji Mogu and the tens of men with earrings, bleached long hairs, and dressed in outlandish attire behind the guy. He fiercely shouted immediately, ”What the hell are you running here for like some rabid dogs? Do you think this place is somewhere you can make trouble or something?”

”Heh, who the hell are you? Don't tell me you're that shitty bastard Mine Takeno, else I'm gonna blast your balls and cut your fucking head off.”

After saying that, he seemed to have caught sight of Tang Xiu and dashed towards him, asking aloud with concern, ”It was all my fault, buddy. To think that somebody wronged you in my country… that was unexpected. I'm really sorry. Please don't get mad. I'm gonna make whoever bully you pay the price. They can report to the Shinigami for all I care.”

A smile sported on Tang Xiu's face while looking at this subordinate of Kuwako. He waved and shrugged and smilingly replied, ”Well, things been dealt with already, Kumaji. We just killed those who bullied us. Just chill down and bear it, will you? That Mine Takeno is perhaps bad stuff, but he at least didn't bully me. Hahaha…. Uh, well, it's not like I hid it from you intentionally, though. It's just… cough, cough, those who got killed were rather pitiful, so just help them out, Kumaji. They're cleaning the bodies so we can have a meal and drinks here.”

Kumaji heavily nodded, then waved the machete in his hand and said loudly, ”You can feel at ease since you didn't bully my buddy. For the sake of God, seeing my friend getting bullied is something very unbearable to this Kumaji, especially when this buddy of mine comes from overseas. Brothers, you heard my friend, right? Alright, let's help them deal with the bodies. Take out our secret weapon!”

Several young men took out a few porcelain bottles from their pockets and opened the cap as a pungent smell immediately wafted in all directions.

Kumaji also took out a porcelain bottle and quickly walked over to a corpse. Then, he poured a few drops of the liquid on it.

Bzzt…

That body began to melt and turned into a pungent liquid in just a few seconds.

”Holy cow! What demonic stuff is that?”

”You can melt the dead body just like that? I think I've heard about stuff like this, as in on TV?”

”Awesome.”

”…”

The men under Mine Takeno were dumbfounded and shocked upon witnessing how a dead body turned into a stinking liquid and couldn't help but exclaim in shock. Even Mine Takeno himself was shocked by the stuff Kumaji just took out. It was something he had long heard of but never seen until now.

Quickly after, tens of dead bodies had been cleaned up. Even the floor was now spotless from any bloodstains. Those who were heavily injured had been taken, while tens of Mine Takeno's men then came over to temporarily serve as waiters.

”I'm hungry, babe.”

Sitting on the sofa, Kuwako intentionally acted intimately to Tang Xiu and then pushed his hand around her. Her voice was extremely sweet and everyone 10 meters away from them could hear it clearly even though her voice was not loud.

Tang Xiu patted her shoulder and lightly smiled. ”I'll tell them to prepare a meal since you're starving, honey. I'm gonna kill them if the taste doesn't suit you.”

”Who do you wanna kill, huh?”

An extremely cold voice came from the corridor of the entrance to the dance room. Then, Ki Kitagawa strode into the dance room with his hands behind his back followed by four men. His frosty eyes swept over everyone inside and finally landed on Tang Xiu.

”You look a bit familiar… but I'm sure I've never seen you.”
