Chapter 259: Chapter 121 Gang Leader, Be More Careful_3

Chef Xue solemnly said, "Whenever I deal with others, I emphasize one thing: sincerity."

"I can tell you’re no ordinary person, so I’m willing to open my heart and speak frankly to you."

"The Revenge Gang’s assets are all here. I know that for someone like you, who is almost at the Tiger King level, it might not be appealing, and you could get better treatment if you went to many other factions."

"But that’s alright, whether we succeed today or not, let’s at least be friends."

Gao Xin took the opportunity to say, "Is that so? My knife has been tampered with, on your territory. Just now, he was still watching the fight in the crowd, don’t tell me he’s an outsider."

Chef Xue was startled, then after a moment of deep thought, he said, "I don’t know who you’re talking about... Have you seen him? Can you describe what he looks like?"

Gao Xin said, "All I know is that he wore a black robe, his face was concealed, and he had a bit of a goatee."

Chef Xue made an ’oh’ sound and said, "He shouldn’t belong to our gang. It seems the Revenge Gang has been targeted, and we haven’t noticed at all..."

"You truly have keen observation skills, worthy of someone who could escape from Yakuzha. Our Revenge Gang really needs talented people like you."

Gao Xin frowned as this wasn’t the answer he was satisfied with.

Not know him? I don’t believe you for a second.

Chef Xue continued, "I inquired this morning, and there was a big chaos last night in Yamaguchi Village. Some cadres colluded with people from outside the village and abducted the Oiran candidate. Eventually, the outsiders were defeated, and the traitors were captured and brought back."

"Gao brother, you were involved in this as well, weren’t you?"

Gao Xin was taken aback, knowing that the other party was changing the subject, but he was still shocked to hear this news.

He couldn’t help but ask, "Traitors? What happened to that traitorous cadre?"

Chef Xue said, "He’s been detained. Yakuzha has announced to the public that the Oiran candidate will not be affected, and the parade will proceed as usual."

Gao Xin was at a loss for words; Yakuzha was indeed ruthless. Rousi had brought Luo Yan back, only to be suppressed as a traitor in the next move.

They didn’t even wait overnight!

This Rousi, what was she thinking? I made the pros and cons very clear at the time, but she insisted on going back. Now, Luo Yan has fallen into the hands of the Japanese, and the music plays on, the dance continues, unaffected by anything.

Everything was as he expected; Rousi might as well have left with him.

But things had already come to this, so Gao Xin didn’t dwell on it any longer. He could only fight again at Yamaguchi Village four days later.

Thinking of this, he said, "As you know, I have a great vendetta against Yakuzha. I’m grateful that you saved me and I really don’t want to drag you into this."

Chef Xue shook his head and said, "It’s really not a problem at all. Who living in the Greater Japan District doesn’t have some enmity with the Japanese?"

"Since I’ve come to know about this and still wish to recruit you, I’m naturally willing to accept the enemies that come with you."

"What the Revenge Gang advocates most is ’great revenge’. Can we seek revenge for injustices of the past nine generations? Even a hundred generations is still acceptable!"

"If you truly decide to join and are willing to stand by us through life and death, then we’re willing to go all out to help you with your revenge!"

Gao Xin gazed at him; Chef Xue was indeed a man of bold and resolute character.

Once he recognized a goal, he did not beat around the bush, speaking his mind openly.

However, Gao Xin still shook his head and said, "I don’t mind being listed in name, but for me to truly join you..."

"Heh, at the very least, we should be honest with each other, right?"

"That man in the black robe tampered with my knife. Considering that you saved me, I can let it go, but I can’t just let it slide without any explanation."

He spoke earnestly, unwilling to compromise. Silver Hand had informed him that the man in the black robe was lurking behind the main hall, obviously having arrived early to wait, and was as familiar with the place as if it were his own home; this was utterly infuriating.

Chef Xue however said, "We in the Revenge Gang will help you find that man in the black robe."

"Really? Well, let’s talk when you find them." Gao Xin stood up and left with Su Lei.

Chef Xue watched them leave without trying to stop them.

But as soon as Gao Xin stepped out of the inner hall’s door, young Gao Shu burst in, her body wrapped in bandages, stiff-limbed and bouncing about comically like a rigid action figure.

"You finished eating? If you’re done, let’s continue!" Gao Shu said with a giggle, brimming with an unreasonable amount of energy.

Gao Xin shook his head, smiling wryly, "No more fighting for me, I have important matters to attend to."

The girl blocked his way, "Hey, hey, hey? What about the deal we made?"

Gao Xin replied, "I never promised you anything, and besides, I haven’t even had my fill. I’m planning to go to the Silver Tower to earn some money and have a good meal... If you want to fight, we can talk if there’s fate."

Gao Shu was taken aback, "Eh? Chef Xue, isn’t he joining us?"

"He doesn’t even want to leave his name, forget it, let him go." Chef Xue also didn’t try to stop him, giving up on recruiting Gao Xin and even seemed eager for him to leave quickly.

Gao Shu became anxious, "Why not? I’m about to reach Elephant Level, you know. When that happens, I’ll take you to enjoy the finest food and drink!"

Gao Xin once again brought up the matter of the Demon Blade and described the black-robed stranger.

Chef Xue sighed, "The person you’re talking about, I don’t even know what he looks like... how would I be able to identify him... Even if he’s standing in the crowd, he could still be an outsider... Don’t misunderstand..."

At this moment, Gao Shu suddenly cut in, "Oh, are you talking about Brother Kai? Is he the one without a hand?"

"..." Chef Xue was speechless on the spot.

Gao Xin also turned around, stopping at the courtyard entrance.

Oh? He admitted it straightaway? The Gang Leader is indeed the most straightforward.

Gao Shu shouted to the surroundings, "Brother Kai! Brother Kai! Someone has discovered you, no use hiding now! Come out!"

"Otherwise, they’ll say that we from the Revenge Gang are not straightforward!"

Gao Xin looked at Chef Xue.

Chef Xue picked up his wine gourd and took two big gulps, his features taut with the burn of the strong liquor, drinking in such a melancholic way.

"Brother Kai! Brother Kai!" Gao Shu kept shouting, seemingly certain that the person was nearby.

"Stop howling."

All of a sudden, the black-robed stranger floated out from behind the hall, striding into the main hall.

"You, child, can’t you be a bit more careful?"

Gao Shu pouted, "Everyone saw already, what’s there to hide? Always so secretive, Brother Kai, did you take someone’s blade?"

The black-robed stranger calmly said, "Mm, just borrowed it for a swing."

Gao Shu grinned, "See, old Gao, my Brother Kai is right here. What else do you want? He just borrowed your blade for a look, it’s not like he didn’t return it. Don’t be so petty!"

"..." Gao Xin blinked, that’s it? The guy just admitted it so openly, leaving him really with nothing to pursue.

He had no choice but to ask, "Why did you want to swing it around?"

The black-robed stranger calmly said, "The Demon Blade, well, it’s been a while since I’ve seen one... I used to have one myself."

Gao Xin asked again, "Then why didn’t you just ask to borrow it when I was awake?"

The black-robed stranger responded proudly, "Because I never thought you would notice my presence."
