Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 60: Whale Song (29)

Dragon Raja 5

At this time, the black crystal glass between the passenger compartment and the cockpit was lowered, and the pilot turned around and greeted Victoria. It was Gonzalez, who had once been on a mission with her in Brazil.

“The Elders will issue directives directly to us, without having to worry about the Executive Department,” Isabel added. “The Elders feel the Executive Department has been holding back during the pursuit. Professor Schneider repeatedly emphasized the target’s life, and they’ve lost time and opportunity. We can’t afford to make that mistake.”

Victoria lowered her head and looked at the rows of bullets in the gun box. The last two bullets were made of crimson crystal.

The bullets made of the Philosopher’s Stone can severely damage the Dragon King’s alchemical equipment with one shot. The Elders put these two bullets in, and the meaning is very clear: if necessary, they can kill the target.

Isabel patted her shoulder and said, “Don’t worry too much. You’re not the shooter. You’re just responsible for delivering the gun to Japan. The people who are actually responsible for the operation are on the way. They are also the ones in charge of this operation.”

“They?” Victoria asked.

“Watcher, and Thunder.” Isabel slowly uttered the two code names.

The crow looked at Fujiwara Nobunosuke coldly.

He considered many ways to act, but ultimately decided on this cold-faced, arrogant man. He imagined that if he were truly foolish and caught by someone they wanted to arrest, and then tied up and thrown outside his office door, he would likely put on a similar forced expression.

“I heard that the director was injured while chasing Lu Mingfei, so I came to visit him.” Fujiwara Nobunosuke bowed deeply.

There were multiple scratches on Crow’s face, and his left arm was still hanging around his neck. Even if Fujiwara Nobunosuke wanted to see a doctor, it would be fine. His shoulder muscles were really sprained.

On the night he drank beer with Lu Mingfei, Crow had prepared for all these injuries. He knew that the academy would be suspicious, but he still had to act well. Lu Mingfei was right that he was an actor who was delayed by the underworld.

“Are you here to see me make a fool of myself? Or do you suspect that I let him go on purpose?” the crow said coldly.

“No, no, the academy believes in the promise of the Snake Eight Families and is deeply grateful.” Fujiwara Nobunosuke was too nervous to sit down, and the crow didn’t ask him to sit down.

He respectfully took a few steps forward and placed the exquisite gift box on the small table in front of Crow, then stepped back. “The academy asked me to bring you a gift as a token of my appreciation. I hope you will accept it.”

Crow suspiciously opened the gift box, revealing a selection of premium fruit purchased from Ginza’s “Sembikiya.” This century-old shop sells Japan’s most expensive fruit, often bought as gifts.

I have to say that this is a very thoughtful gift. Now that Ryuji Saeki is a big shot among the Eight Snake Families, he doesn’t care about any valuable things given to him, but such an elegant gift of condolence for the illness seems very appropriate, and it is not at all like the overbearing style of the academy.

“Thank you so much. Please sit down and talk.” The crow had no choice but to express some kindness to Fujiwara Nobunosuke.

Fujiwara Nobunosuke knelt in awe, like a young wife, and said, “I hope Director Saeki will support me in my future work.”

“Of course,” Crow could only continue perfunctorily, “As long as they remain within Japan, the Snake Eight Clans will not give up hunting them down. The academy can rest assured.”

“The academy wants to send a few specialists to assist us. What do you think, Director Saeki?”

“Do we need the Eight Snake Qi Families to arrange their accommodation and transportation?” Crow said this, but in his heart he was mocking coldly.

This is Japan, where the Snake Eight Clan have been operating since the mythological era, and here only the Snake Eight Clan have the final say.

EVA is indeed powerful, but the “Kaguya” system of the Snake Eight Families is not to be trifled with. With the network advantage in Japan, the specialists of Cassel Academy will be monitored as soon as they land in Tokyo, but they can’t even find Lu Mingfei.

“No, no, they can take care of themselves.” Fujiwara Nobunosuke nodded and bowed. “There is one more small matter, and I would also like to ask for your support, Director.”

“Please speak?” Crow raised an eyebrow.

“We know that the Snake Eight also control the vast majority of advertising screens in Tokyo. Here’s a video that we hope to run on advertising screens throughout Tokyo.”

“Video?” Crow was stunned.

Fujiwara no Nobunosuke quickly took out his phone and played the video demo for Crow. Crow watched it suspiciously and looked at Fujiwara no Nobunosuke suspiciously.

“This is just some advice from her family. It’s too risky for her to do this, and they’re very worried about her.” Fujiwara Nobunosuke bowed down, “Please, Director Saeki.”

“Since it’s her family’s idea, we’ll do our best to assist. Please send me the video materials.” Crow nodded. “However, the company responsible for managing the outdoor video advertising is an independent company, so I also need to coordinate the broadcast time with them. My assistant will notify you when there is any news.”
