Infinite Travel: I know a lot of goddesses

Chapter 842! Huazi's Request

……

Dark Matter Club is the best private club in Night City, almost unrivaled. People who come here are either rich or noble, either superstars or super-rich people, but being able to rent the top-floor open-air terrace is probably something that only the main leaders of the top companies in Night City can do.

Shen Ye and Xili drove to the downstairs of the club and were stopped by the doorman as expected. But before Shen Ye could explain who invited them, a "young man" with a typical Japanese appearance appeared in front of him.

Arasaka Hanako's bodyguard, Oda Santao.

"This gentleman and this young lady were invited here by my boss."

Just a simple sentence made the doorman feel very nervous, and then he respectfully invited Shen Ye and Xili into the club.

Following Oda Santao into the elevator, while waiting for the elevator to reach the top floor, Ciri looked at Oda Santao curiously... As the personal bodyguard of the eldest princess of the Arasaka family, Oda Santao has a particularly high proportion of prosthetic implants in his body. Below the neck are all high-end military-grade prostheses, which makes Ciri particularly curious. After all, she has seen people like Rita and Valerie, and it is difficult to see obvious signs of prosthetic implants.

"Is this guy still a human?" Finally unable to hold back, Xili came close to Shen Ye and asked in a low voice.

"At least he looks like a human being... I know a guy whose meat is not enough to stir-fry a dish." Shen Ye also spoke in a low voice.

However, the elevator was so small that there was no way Oda Santao could not hear the conversation between the two. But he did not say anything. He just stood straight at the elevator entrance, looking even colder than Neil the Android, more like a robot.

Just as Shen Ye and Xili were whispering to each other, the elevator finally arrived at the open-air platform on the top floor.

With a ding, the elevator door opened, and Oda Santaifu walked out of the elevator, turned around and bowed to Shen Ye and Xili and said, "You two, please."

"You're so polite." The white-haired girl was still very polite. White Wolf's teachings had not turned her into a tomboy. She lifted her skirt and curtseyed in response.

The girl's standard movements made Oda Santao slightly stunned, and also made Arasaka Hanako, who was wearing an exquisite kimono not far away, put down the teacup in her hand and stand up.

"Nobles from Europe?" She frowned and thought, but after searching her mind, she still had no clue.

At this time, Shen Ye and Xili had already walked in front of her. Shen Ye looked Arasaka Hanako up and down. Well, she was much prettier than in the game. Then he nodded at Arasaka Hanako and said, "I guess you are the eldest princess of the Arasaka family, Miss Arasaka Hanako?"

"Yes, but you are too kind. Arasaka is not an empire, and I am not a princess." Arasaka Hanako nodded, then bowed slightly to the two of them: "It's our first meeting. Please give me your guidance."

"It's not the first time we met. I've seen you on TV, and... I knew you existed when I was in Wakako's office last time." Shen Ye sat down casually, and then continued: "But I still don't quite agree with you when you said Arasaka is not an empire. You know, Arasaka can almost cover the sky with one hand in Night City, which is far away from the base camp."

Hearing this, Arasaka Hanako frowned: "It seems that Mr. Shen doesn't have a very good impression of Arasaka?"

"Wrong. In fact, I have a bad impression of all big companies. I can even say I hate them." Shen Ye said as he looked at Arasaka Hanako who started to make tea.

But just as he said this, Oda Santao, who was standing behind Arasaka Hanako, suddenly clenched his fists, and the thermal mantis knives on his arms also slightly popped out... He regarded Shen Ye's words as a verbal threat.

Noticing Oda's move, Shen Ye hadn't reacted yet. The white-haired girl stood up and reached behind her out of habit, but the silver sword was taken away by Shen Ye, and the steel sword was still thrown in the wine. She touched nothing and had to slap the table and shouted: "What are you doing, do you want to fight?"

The white-haired girl had just arrived in Night City and was not used to the way of speaking here. If it were Rita or Qiwei, they would probably start talking in three-character scripture.

Arasaka Hanako, who was just wondering if Ciri was a daughter of a noble, was stunned by her action and almost made a mistake while making tea. After a long while, she turned back and said to Oda Santao: "Oda, sit down."

"Yes, Miss Hanako." Oda Santaifu was Hanako Arasaka's most loyal dog. Upon hearing this, he immediately put away his mantis sword and knelt obediently behind Hanako Arasaka.

Then Arasaka Hanako said apologetically: "I'm sorry..."

"Nothing." Shen Ye waved his hand and asked Xili to sit down.

After this little episode, Arasaka Hanako was silent for a while until the tea was ready. She handed the tea to him and said, "This morning, Mr. Shen asked me if my father had come to Night City and what he wanted to do."

"What? Are you worried that I will assassinate your father?" Shen Ye took a sip of tea and nodded. The taste was indeed better than the one brewed by Wakako, but it was still a bit far from the craftsmanship of the Kagura sisters... Well, he missed them a little.

"I'm not worried about that. I believe Mr. Shen is not the kind of person who likes violence, otherwise you wouldn't have saved people in Little Chinatown." Arasaka Hanako shook her head and said, "Besides, instead of worrying about outsiders, I'm actually more worried about my father and brother. Between them..."

Having said this, Arasaka Hanako closed her mouth. After all, Japan was also deeply influenced by Chinese civilization, and she knew the principle of not airing one's dirty laundry in public.

only……

"Isn't it a well-known fact that Saburo Arasaka and Yorinobu Arasaka have conflicts?" Shen Ye smiled: "There is no need to hide it."

"Mr. Shen also said that he is just an ordinary person. The things between him and his son are only circulated in the upper class. How can ordinary people know these things?" Arasaka Hanako looked at Shen Ye, and a hint of ambiguous meaning flashed in her eyes.

Then she continued: "But since Mr. Shen knows about our Arasaka family's affairs, things will be much easier. To be honest, I invited Mr. Shen here this time because I want to ask him to do something."

"I'm not a mercenary." Shen Ye said unceremoniously, "I don't accept any offers of employment."

Once these words came out, Arasaka Hanako basically stopped what she hadn't said yet. She was stunned for a moment, and finally sighed: "Mr. Shen, don't you want to hear the conditions I offer?"

"I don't want to." Shen Ye stretched and said vaguely.

But before Arasaka Hanako could feel disappointed, she heard Shen Ye chuckle and say, "But you can tell me what you want me to do, if it's interesting..."

Nothing is more interesting than having fun.

"I would like to ask you to protect my brother." said Arasaka Hanako.

Then, Shen Ye's eyes narrowed, proving that he had entered a state of rapid thinking.
