Chapter 1092: I, Lu Shu, Have Never Given In To Any Threats!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Night had fallen on the streets in Tokyo. A taxi drove from Setagaya. This was the famous rich area of Tokyo. It was home to the largest number of entrepreneurs, entertainers, and celebrities.
It was a new wealthy area that was not that inconspicuous. If you told someone in Japan that you lived in Setagaya, the person’s first impression would be that you were extremely wealthy.
This area was rather secluded and quiet. Setagaya was in northwest Tokyo, like where Fangshan was in the Capital. 30 years ago, after Japan underwent urbanisation and made rapid progress, rich people started to gather in this area.
The Chinese would feel that this place was rather claustrophobic. Compared to the vast cities in China, the streets here were very narrow.
In the entire Setagaya, a four lane street would be considered very wide.
Most of the houses in Setagaya were detached villas. The tallest house was six storeys tall. If the buildings in Tokyo were tall trees, then the buildings in Setagaya were intricate bonsais.
There were many young people in Setagaya. Kokushikukan University, Komazawa University, and Meiji University were nearby. As many celebrities lived in this area, the street culture was very rich. Cafes, bars, and capsule hotels were very common. In the evenings, young people would gather in Sangenjaya and Shimokitazawa.
Lu Shu leisurely rode a taxi and traveled around Setagaya. The girls in the cafes along the street softly whispered to one another. They wore short skirts. When they saw Lu Shu looking at them, they would smile.
Of course, Lu Shu had not come to Setagaya to see girls. Sakurai Yaeko lived in Setagaya. The Collection of Gods took up two streets in this area. The heroic Collection of Gods had become the only Practitioner organization in Japan. They no longer had to worry about money.
The Collection of Gods had fortified these two streets. Practitioners guarded the entire imperial palace of the Collection of Gods.
Although the imperial palace was modern… it was very extravagant on the inside.
Lu Shu had come to the Collection of Gods alone. He did not bring Lu Xiaoyu along with him.
On one hand, the problem of the slave owners in China had not been completely solved. If someone similar appeared elsewhere, they needed Anthony to transport the Mice Army to save the affected cities.
The Mice Army had become outstanding soldiers in the Heavenly Network. Even Little Fury had become more strong-willed when it talked.
On the other hand, Lu Shu rejected Zhong Yutang’s offer of going with a 12-man team. He did not want to act rashly and alert the enemy.
There was a possibility that many slave owners wanted to act against Sakurai Yaeko. Lu Shu wanted to use this opportunity to settle things once and for all.
They were outsiders without any foundation, but if they had decided to act, they would definitely have done their preparation.
Lu Shu had returned from the Luniverse. He knew very well that he could not look down on them.
There were times when he pondered whether these slave owners were on the same side as the 21 tattooed underlings on the limestone road.
If that was the case, they would definitely be much more cautious than he expected.
Back then, when the 21 tattooed underlings faced Lu Shu, they did not attack unless their formation was perfect. This left a lasting impression on Lu Shu.
The wealthy area was not only occupied by rich people. There were vendors serving these people. Uncles with white towels wrapped around their heads said “ohayo1 whenever they saw someone. With a smile, they sold the various types of seafood that they had caught that morning. The decorations in the shops selling refined rice made Lu Shu think about the grain shops of the 80s. The unpolished rice was stored in gunnysacks and barrels. Once they were weighed, they were pounded using machines.
Night had fallen. The streets were bustling. Tokyo seemed to have recovered from the massive battle caused by the Collection of Gods.
This was what Lu Shu liked about Earth. No matter whether it was Japan or China, the civilians lived modestly. Although they had experienced suffering, they were able to recover and continue moving forward.
Taxis could not be flagged anywhere in Japan. Taxi drivers would not stop for passengers at corners and junctions. It was best to wait for a taxi at a taxi stand.
Furthermore, the pricing was more structured. The base fare was 410 yen. It sounded very cheap, but the price increased quickly.
In the day, the prices would not change without reason. Driving at night or on expressways could incur additional costs, but this depended on the driver.
Lu Shu’s taxi driver was an overseas employee. He had come to Japan 11 years ago. Now, his mother had fallen sick. He wanted to go back and see her. Thus, Lu Shu took over for him.
A young male student was waiting at the taxi stand. After he got in, Lu Shu asked in fluent Japanese, “Where are you going?”
“Kanagawa. Thank you,” said the young student in a polite tone.
Lu Shu drove towards Kanagawa. He did not need to refer to a map. The entire map of Japan had been imprinted in his mind after his previous assignment.
Setagaya was on the border of Kanagawa. It was neither near nor far away.
When they reached Kanagawa, the sky was dark. Lu Shu looked at the young student and calmly said, “That will be an additional 3000 yen.”
The student was dumbfounded. There was some anger in his expression. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
Lu Shu looked at him. “This place is not near to Setagaya. Furthermore, it is night. It is normal to incur additional fees.”
Lu Shu saw through him. Did this student not have enough money?
The young student was slightly angry. “Either charge me the price on the meter, or bring me back!”
Ten minutes later, the student’s phone rang. The ring tone pierced through the silence of the taxi. The student picked up the phone. “Hello, are you there? I flagged a taxi that charged me an extra 3000 yen when I reached my destination. I told him, either charge me the price on the meter, or bring me back. Yes, I am on the way back…”
“From Kido Takayoshi’s distress, +666!”
Lu Shu was very unhappy. He was a rich man now. Who could threaten him?
I, the Ninth Heavenly King of the Heavenly Network, am being threatened?
If you asked me to bring you back, I will bring you back!
Lu Shu’s state of mind had changed. It was a long and meandering process.
But he had not returned to the state of a normal person. Instead, he had stepped into an explosive state of mind…
But at that moment, a grey car drove past him. The moment they passed by each other, Lu Shu could feel waves of energy. He turned and took a look. He immediately saw what he wanted to see most. The mark of a slave!
It had appeared. Lu Shu was calm. He could not attack yet. He had to find every single one of them!
