Chapter 1027 - 1026: So It Really Is You Guys
As the saying goes, enemies meeting face to face are especially jealous. Although Watanabe Shinji can't be 100% certain that last night's attack was related to these Hua Country folks opposite him, to him, these individuals, especially the man who took his business card without even looking at it and seemed indifferent to him, are very suspicious.For Watanabe Shinji, he's not sure if the individuals across from him are enemies, but for Qiao Jia and Xie Simin, the slightly balding man with glasses opposite them is an undeniable foe.
What's more infuriating... from the way this bastard looks, he seemingly doesn't remember them at all!
This seems to indicate that what was extremely humiliating to them, events that made them harbor resentment for life, were trivial to Watanabe Shinji.
As the expressions of both sides began to change subtly, the atmosphere between them quickly turned a bit awkward.
Noticing Chu Ge's attitude, which was indifferent or outright ignored his existence, Watanabe Shinji was extremely displeased. Yesterday, when he handed his business card to that man, he was indifferent, and today he still has this damn attitude!
Chu Ge's indifference infuriated Watanabe Shinji, while the change in Qin Ruojing and Qin Ruoying's expressions made his heart skip a beat, and his brow furrowed even tighter.
These Hua Country twins seemed a bit uneasy and guilty?
Why would they be uneasy and guilty?
Is it because they know his profession and think he would continue to pester them, talking about filming?
Or... did they really partake in last night's attack on them?
Both seem quite possible!
Besides these, Watanabe Shinji was puzzled by another matter. The expressions of the other two high schooler-looking girls also seemed a bit odd when they saw him?
The emotions emanating from those two girls' eyes seemed to be anger and hatred? What's the story here?
Do these two girls know him? Do they have a grudge? Eh? Upon closer inspection... these two girls do seem a bit familiar!
His gaze fluttering amongst the four women and one man opposite, Watanabe Shinji quickly pondered in his heart and finally decided to go over and probe, otherwise wouldn't it be a waste of this rare opportunity?
His eyes glanced around behind his glasses, and Watanabe Shinji walked towards Chu Ge.
"Yo, what a coincidence, seeing you again."
As he positioned himself opposite Chu Ge, Watanabe Shinji had already relaxed his furrowed brow, donning a disingenuous smile.
"Quite the coincidence." Chu Ge nodded, responding to Watanabe Shinji in Japanese, his gaze briefly sweeping over his collapsed nose and missing two front teeth, feigned surprise: "What happened to you... drank too much and ran into a tree?"
Watanabe Shinji's mouth twitched; just mentioning this incident made his blood boil, even though his nose and mouth, along with the back of his head had been treated, they still hurt at the slightest movement And this man across who was likely the culprit, how dare he blatantly tease him about it, it makes Shinji want to kill.
Suppressing his anger silently, Watanabe Shinji continued his fake smile and said, "Don't mention it, had a little accident last night. I dare ask, is your name Chu Ge?"
Although Watanabe Shinji continued speaking Japanese, he pronounced "Chu Ge" in Chinese.
Hearing "Chu Ge" from Watanabe Shinji's mouth made Qin Ruojing and Qin Ruoying's hearts tighten simultaneously, their expressions which were already somewhat unnatural, became even more awkward.
Chu Ge wasn't very surprised, given Watanabe Shinji's considerations, he naturally could speculate as well. After causing such a big commotion last night, every guest's basic information was recorded at the hotel; since Watanabe Shinji is the local, handling affairs for them isn't far-fetched.
While questioning, Watanabe Shinji stared intensely into Chu Ge's eyes, peripheral vision fixed on Qin Ruojing and Qin Ruoying, although Chu Ge's expression remained unchanged, the sisters' subconscious reaction seemed to validate his suspicion.
Before Chu Ge could answer, Watanabe Shinji immediately shifted his gaze to Qin Ruojing and Qin Ruoying's faces, smiling insincerely and continued asking, "And these two beautiful ladies must be Miss Qin Ruojing and Miss Qin Ruoying, correct?"
The words were said to Chu Ge, after Watanabe Shinji finished speaking, he turned his gaze back to Chu Ge's face. However, the Chinese pronunciations "Qin Ruojing" and "Qin Ruoying" once again clearly reached the ears of the Qin sisters, causing a subtle change in their expressions.
If mentioning the name "Chu Ge" earlier allowed Watanabe Shinji to be 80% certain of the identities of these three people, then saying the names "Qin Ruojing" and "Qin Ruoying" let him be 100% certain.
With this discovery, the original vacant smile on Watanabe Shinji's face gradually took on a different meaning. Accurately speaking, his current expression could be described as a sneer, and the small eyes behind his glasses narrowed slightly.
Watanabe Shinji was eager to hear what this man named Chu Ge could say now?
Yesterday, this guy and the twin sisters first ruined his plans by taking away the girl with the Chinese name Su Xiao. Then they checked into the small inn where Su Xiao was staying, and acted as if they were completely bewildered about the injuries on his face—what a joke!
Under Watanabe Shinji's superficially polite but actually aggressive gaze, Chu Ge continued playing dumb, slightly furrowing his brow and showing the perfect hint of suspiciousness and vigilance.
"Mr. Shinji, how do you know our names?"
Anyway, Chu Ge had nothing else on hand, so if Watanabe Shinji wanted to probe, Chu Ge didn't mind playing along for a bit.
After all, this guy is called "Shinji," and Chu Ge felt that if he didn't make him a complete fool, he'd be betraying the ridiculously fitting name "Shinji."
Thinking about this, Chu Ge couldn't help but hold some grudge about last night's events, regretting that he shouldn't have aimed for the eye when dealing with Saito Daikan. If given another chance, he would aim somewhere else, making sure the guy truly lived up to being a despicable eunuch.
As Chu Ge was contemplating regretfully, Watanabe Shinji faked surprise and laughed, "Oh, so it really is you?"
Chu Ge remained silent, only watching Watanabe Shinji with feigned vigilance, curious to see what tricks he would try.
"Here's the thing, I have a friend in the police. Today while chatting, he told me that last night a small inn was attacked, and among the guests were friends from Hua Country: a handsome gentleman and a pair of young, beautiful twin ladies. I immediately thought of you, so I asked a few more questions and got your names. What a coincidence!"
Seeing Watanabe Shinji put on a serious act, Chu Ge felt a cold sneer in his heart, but nodded outwardly, "I see."
"Mr. Chu, since we're so destined to meet, why don't we go for a drink together? I know a great place, and I'll treat you."
Watanabe Shinji made a fake-sincere invitation, while Chu Ge's heart sneered even more. This guy might say nice things, but he finally showed his true colors.
Even with his toe, Chu Ge could guess that Watanabe Shinji definitely had no good intentions and probably wanted to lure them to his pals' territory to trouble them directly or indirectly.
"Well…" Chu Ge's gaze met Watanabe Shinji's, feigning hesitation, while he subconsciously focused his mental efforts, attempting hypnosis on him.
According to Su Yuanzhou, as long as cultivation reached the fifth character on the first level, attempts could be made to hypnotize others. Since he had already reached the eighth character, theoretically, there shouldn't be any issues.
If experimenting on others, Chu Ge might have various concerns, but if Watanabe Shinji was the subject, he wouldn't worry at all.
Not to mention with his current mastery the characters likely couldn't cause any spiritual harm to Watanabe Shinji, even if he turned him into an idiot, it wouldn't be a big deal.
"You little runt, being my first experimental subject is a certain honor, so let me see how much surprise this cultivation technique can bring me."
Chu Ge thought secretly, with great anticipation, silently forming a mental connection between him and Watanabe Shinji, who was unsuspecting and unguarded. Soon, he felt a sensation reminiscent of his solo cultivation experience.
The feeling was very mysterious, their eye contact seemed to form an intangible bridge, continually extending, gradually connecting their spirits. Although he couldn't read Watanabe Shinji's thoughts, he could sense the existence of another Spiritual World.
Even though Chu Ge didn't care if Watanabe Shinji turned into an idiot, he hoped to succeed in his first attempt to hypnotize with this cultivation technique.
To be cautious, once the very mysterious spiritual connection was established, Chu Ge opted to start interweaving from the first character sequentially.
