Dragon Raja 5; Chapter 88: Whale Song (57)

Dragon Raja 5

The flying knives around her spun at high speed, making sharp whistling sounds that were terrifying. In this situation, they were like loaded bullets, ready to be fired at any time.

The guy frying the eggs looked really scared. He raised his hands and slowly turned around with a confused look on his face.

“Why are you here?” Susie was stunned.

“Of course it’s me. Who else could it be?” The guy frying eggs smiled bitterly. “Who would pack your clothes and then make you breakfast? Do you have another fiancé?”

“When did you change your hairstyle?”

“My hairdresser said I might want to try some sporty short haircuts for the summer…” The guy scratched his short blond hair.

Actually, it’s not that short, but it’s much shorter than his long hair that used to fall to his shoulders. It’s smooth and curly, and looks like platinum in the morning sunlight, like the hairstyle he had in middle school.

“According to the plan, you are arriving in four days! If you arrive early, could you please send a message to let me know?” Susie frowned fiercely.

She was also a girl, and she didn’t reject this kind of little romance in life. However, for a beheader, this kind of surprise would sometimes cause unnecessary trouble.

For example, this guy who suddenly cut his hair short and suddenly ran into her kitchen to fry eggs for her, if he reacted incorrectly, Susie’s flying knife might leave a bloody hole in his body first. After the fierce battle last night, she was very tired, but her nerves were in a highly tense state.

The guy frying eggs was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly. “My business in Paris ended early, so I changed my flight time. In France, a man who suddenly shows up at your bedside with breakfast is considered romantic. I thought you’d be happy… but who can blame me for having a beheaded fiancée?”

Susie frowned at him, looking still angry.

The man was a little at a loss. He had always been a man who made light of important matters and was trusted by everyone around him, but he felt that everything he did was wrong in front of his fiancée. Susie had always been a good-tempered girl, but she would lose her temper for no reason in front of him, and she would find something wrong.

The man suddenly sniffed, and a faint smell of burning came to his nose. Then he remembered that there were eggs frying on the stove.

But he didn’t dare to take care of the eggs in the pot immediately. Instead, he spread his hands to Susie and said, “I’m sorry, dear. I was wrong. I should have informed you in advance. I apologize…”

When he said this, he was so helpless and his words were dry, completely unlike his usual appearance. Because he actually did nothing wrong, he just thought that this would give Susie a surprise.

Susie sighed softly, trotted forward a few steps, and hugged him, “I’m sorry, Lancelot, I’m in a very bad mood today.”

Lancelot was flattered and hugged his fiancée, pressing his cheek against hers.

They hugged each other quietly, letting the fried eggs on the induction cooker gradually curl up and turn black. The black blades lost their support and fell down at the same time, densely packed on the table.

Cassel College, Valhalla Conference Room.

Beowulf slammed his fist on the conference table, causing it to vibrate. “Even if we send out Thunderbolt and the Watchers, what’s the problem?”

“Among the younger generation of decapitators, Lei Ting is already one of the best, and she understands her target so well,” Mr. Turing said. “But her opponent is Lu Mingfei. We can’t assess the upper limit of Lu Mingfei’s ability. He is completely unknown, just like the Dragon King.”

“But according to Lei Ting’s report, Lu Mingfei doesn’t even had the ability to move! The people who stopped her were Chen Motong and a young man whose identity cannot be found! When did so many people become able to stop our best beheader?” Beowulf was furious.

“The Thunder are the best of the younger generation of decapitators, but not the best among decapitators,” Mr. Vanderbilt said. “If the young can’t do it, let the old ones take over.”

“The Watchers have already taken the old people to Tokyo,” said Mr. Turing.

“Remind the watchers to control them and prevent the situation from getting out of hand,” Beowulf said. “We’re forced to use the old man. Even I would rather let those guys sleep in the icehouse.”

“Don’t worry, the Watchers are very reliable. The elders are just there to assist. The mission depends on the cooperation between the Watchers and Thunder. With the Watchers around, Thunder is truly complete. They won’t let us down.” Mr. Vanderbilt said, “Now that we’ve confirmed they’re in Tokyo, narrowing the hunting area to the size of a city will greatly increase our success rate.”

“Have you found out where the group of people who robbed our branches came from?” Beowulf asked.

Mr. Turing shook his head. “All we know is that the robbers were two young women, undoubtedly mixed-race, one of whom was very capable. Judging by their route, they drove all the way from Asia to Europe, robbing our branches along the way. All branches had to keep guards.”

It was a deeply embarrassing incident for the Elders’ Council. Originally, the pursuit of Lu Mingfei was a top priority, and branches across the country were on high alert. But in just two weeks, the two female thieves had already robbed more than ten branches. Their methods were simple and brutal: they kicked down doors, seized everyone, copied data from computers, and then opened fire with shotguns. They took group photos of the captured specialists and uploaded them to the Hunter website. Then drove away and moved on to the next robbery.
