Chapter 753 Fox Asks for Leave, Mrs. Gao's Plan (1/2)

"Has the hand and the association offended you in any way?" Yoshioka Nobu asked nervously and puzzledly.

"At noon today, I was watching the news and petting my cat in my shop.

When I was enjoying my peaceful life, I was interrupted by three uninvited guests.

Just because Daredevil borrowed my house to treat an injured woman last night, they wanted to cut off one of my fingers. If it were you, would you be able to endure it?" Aaron said righteously, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

Yoshioka Nobu's face suddenly became extremely wonderful, and his resentment towards Koji in his heart also soared rapidly. At least you should find the right person to chop off your fingers!

It is not worth it to offend a powerful enemy like this, and... now he is facing this enemy.

"Now I should be qualified to meet your leader, right?"

"Why do you want to meet our leader?"

"Don't be nervous. There is no conflict of interest between me and the Hand and the Society for the time being.

I don't want to have any. After all, there are so many people in the Hand and the Society. Killing them is not only a waste of time, but also of no benefit to me." Aaron explained patiently, "My purpose is just to understand some of the history of this world. Legend has it that the leader of the Hand and the Society has existed for hundreds of years, and there should be some secret records."

"Just for this?" Yoshioka Nobu asked doubtfully.

"Just for this." Aaron said seriously, "You can trust Gaius's credibility, otherwise you wouldn't be standing here listening to me now."

Yoshioka Nobu's expression froze, and he immediately bowed his head to apologize.

"Please wait a moment, I need to report the situation to Mrs. Gao."

"Okay." Aaron waved his hand indifferently, "By the way, I don't know your name yet?"

"Yoshioka Nobu."

"Hmm?"

"Any questions?" Yoshioka Nobu asked nervously.

Aaron looked at him meaningfully, "What does death feel like?"

Yoshioka Shin blinked timidly, not sure if Aaron knew anything.

"Don't want to answer."

Yoshioka Shin bowed his head again, then took out a mobile phone from his pocket.

"Mrs. Gao, someone wants to see you, and he has no ill intentions."

"Yes, he is very strong, he can easily kill me."

"If we refuse, we may not be able to bear the consequences."

"Okay, I will tell you." After hanging up the phone, Yoshioka Shin looked at Aaron and said, "Mrs. Gao, please give her some time. Tomorrow at noon, she will try her best to meet your requirements and explain today's misunderstanding."

"Wait and see." Aaron chuckled and walked out of the building easily.

Yoshioka Shin watched his figure disappear into the night, and at the same time he felt relieved and realized that his back was soaked with sweat.

......

Back at Pepsi House, Aaron sat lazily on the sofa, with more expectations for tomorrow in his heart.

Finally, he was going to see a 'living encyclopedia'. This was his first step to understand the world and to really start planning for the future. He had to take a small notebook to write it down.

"Master." Abe jumped over and sniffed Aaron's breath. His face became strange. "Such a strong smell of blood. How many people did the master kill?"

"It should be... less than fifty! This is the first time I've killed so many people since I came to this world!"

"Is it okay? What if..."

"I didn't use magic from beginning to end. I just relied on pure strength, speed and skills to deal with it. There would be no risk of being exposed.

They attacked me first, so I was forced to fight back. Moreover, they are all ruthless killing machines. No matter how many people die, they are not worthy of mercy."

Abe nodded as if he understood. If the master said it was okay, it must be okay.

"Where's Fox? Hasn't he come back yet?"

"It will only come back if the master calls it!

Otherwise, a ball of fire appeared in the house. It would be bad if it scared others."

"That's right." Aaron smiled and then called Fox's name.

Cry!

The phoenix appeared, flew out of the flames, and uttered a high-pitched cry.

Fox's voice was full of excitement. It circled around Aaron for a few times, released its sharp beak and threw a letter in front of Aaron.

Aaron raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Did you find me a pen pal?"

Fox raised his neck proudly, "Master, I really like her. If possible, please write a reply."

"It depends on my mood!" Aaron did not agree or refuse. After all, he had lived alone for nearly two years. Although he was accompanied by Abe and Fox, he still felt lonely sometimes.

He opened the envelope, and the handwriting was beautiful and graceful, which was obviously written by a girl.

Hello, the owner of the phoenix!

Although we have never met, Fox has mentioned you to me more than once.

I want to say thank you for letting it come to accompany me. In this school, it is the only creature that I can tell my thoughts to without reservation, and it is also the only creature that makes me feel safe and warm.

It may be a bit presumptuous, but I still want to ask you to give it more freedom.

Jean Grey

"Haha!" Aaron looked at the excited Phoenix speechlessly, "You asked someone to ask for leave for you, so you can go out and play?"

"The master will agree, right?" Fox opened his eyes wide, trying to be cute with his pupils.

"Well..." Aaron touched his chin and thought for a while, "One bottle of tears a week."

"Isn't this too much? The master has collected a lot in more than a year!"

"Who would complain about having too many good things!

Of course, the choice is yours, I don't care."

"Okay! But the master remembers to reply to Jean."

"No problem."

"And I need to bring a week's worth of food, the food at Jean's place is really... hard to describe."

"Too much." Abe grinned, "You want the master to be responsible for delivering meals when you go out to play?"

"Open your mind." Fox said confidently, "This is for the future mistress."

Abe: !!!

"Don't push your luck." Aaron waved his hand speechlessly, "I can't agree to this condition.

First of all, Qin is not your future mistress yet. I have never met her.

Secondly, she should live in a school. It is already an exception for you to go there. If you bring a week's worth of food, it will be very conspicuous."

Hearing this, Fox lowered his head in disappointment, "Then please ask the master to write a letter!"

Aaron picked up the paper and pen neatly, and wrote a sentence casually: I agree.

"That's it?" Fox opened his mouth in astonishment, "At least leave a name!"

"This is really not okay. What's the difference between leaving a name and revealing your identity?"

"But this... won't be impolite?"

After a moment of silence, Aaron added his signature on the paper: Fox's master: Fortune Teller.

Then he put the letter, which couldn't be simpler, into an envelope and threw it to Fox, "That's it!"

......

The next day.

Aaron sat in front of the piano, his slender fingers wandering between the black and white keys.

Different notes combined to form a beautiful melody, telling of his expectations and joy in his heart.

At this time, a car stopped at the door of Pepsi House, and a short-haired girl in black clothes got out of the car and walked straight into the store.

She did not interrupt, but listened to Aaron's playing patiently.

After the song ended, she politely made a gesture of invitation, "Mr. Gaius, Mrs. Gao invites you."

"Then let's go!" Aaron took Abe, "I hope Shouhe will not let me down."

The car passed through the criss-crossing streets and came to a garment factory in Chinatown.

The short-haired girl led the way in front and took Aaron to a remote basement. More than a dozen gunmen hiding in the dark did not stop him at all.

After walking up a few more steps, the two arrived at their destination.

This is a room of only dozens of square meters. There is only a tea table and two chairs in the room. The only light source seems to be the dim sunlight shining through the window.

An old woman with gray hair and less than 1.6 meters tall smiled, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Gaius."

Aaron nodded slightly and looked at the furnishings in the room, "To be honest, this is much simpler than I thought."

"It's just a temporary lounge. I don't think you will mind.

Of course, if you are not satisfied, we can immediately change to a clean and spacious place."

"I am indeed not satisfied. A garden outside is hundreds of times better than this place.

But forget about changing places. I just want to understand some things. It won't take too much time."

"Xin told me that I will tell you everything you want to know."

"So cooperative?" Aaron was a little surprised. He thought he would have to go through a fierce battle before he came!

"The situation in Hell's Kitchen is more complicated than you think." Mrs. Gao explained with a smile, "My attention to you started when Wilson ordered that none of his men be allowed to disturb the 'Gaius Peppermint House'.

I did a simple investigation. S.H.I.E.L.D. and Iron Man Tony Stark are all related to you, especially you killed Kilgrave and fought with the military's experimental products.

And your divination ability and the magical potions you made, all prove that you are not a simple person."

"To be honest, I have been paying attention to you for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion that makes me feel more at ease.

You will not be our friend, but you may not be our enemy either.

Wilson's orders to his men are very correct. As long as we don't disturb your life, we can live in peace to a certain extent."

"That's right. Unless it's necessary, I don't bother to care about your shitty things." Aaron couldn't deny that he was not at all surprised by what Mrs. Gao found out, but he was a little happy in his heart.

On the one hand, the intelligence ability of the Hand and the Society is really good, which makes him look forward to the next conversation.

On the other hand, his disguise was very successful, at least in the eyes of outsiders, his personality did not collapse.

Mrs. Gao smiled slightly and continued, "It was my people who were rash this time. It was also my fault that I did not remind them in time that there was a sleeping dragon in Hell's Kitchen.

I have already punished them. Please give me a favor and don't pursue this matter any further."

"What if I don't give you this favor? What if you insist on pursuing it?" Aaron said playfully.

Mrs. Gao paused for a moment, then looked at the short-haired girl beside her, "Open it!"

"Yes!"

The short-haired girl immediately opened a side door in the basement, and saw two people with their hands tied, kneeling on the ground in a miserable state.

One was the blue-haired woman from yesterday, and the other was a slightly fat middle-aged man.

"You should know this woman. As for him... Koji Tanaka, he was the one who ordered people to cut off your fingers. In fact, this is also the rule of the Hand and the Society. He just offended the wrong person."

After saying that, Mrs. Gao pulled out the sword hidden in the cane and stabbed it into the heart of the blue-haired woman, and then cut off Koji's left index finger with a backhanded sword.

Blood spurted out, and a piece of finger fell to the ground.

Koji Tanaka groaned, said nothing, and kept kneeling on the ground with his head down.

"This is the apology of the Hand and the Society. Koji is still useful now. I ask you to spare his life."

Aaron watched this scene calmly, and after a few seconds of silence, he said: "He arranged dozens of ninjas to surround and kill me yesterday. He betrayed my trust in the Hand and the Society.

Since Ms. Gao said so, I can spare his life, but isn't one finger too few?"

"Understood." Mrs. Gao nodded, raised the sword and cut off one of Koji's arms.

"Ah!"

The severe pain made him scream.

"So noisy!"

Aaron rolled his eyes, took out the acupuncture gun and stabbed him in the neck.

With a 'sizzle' sound, the broken-armed Koji fainted.

"Are you satisfied now?" Mrs. Gao asked.

"Not bad!

After all, I'm not a bad person, it's enough to vent my anger."

"That's good." Mrs. Gao seemed to be relieved, and immediately winked at the short-haired girl who was indifferent to the side.

She immediately understood and called two people to clean up the ground.

Soon, the bodies of the fainted Koji and the blue-haired woman were carried out.

Aaron casually moved a chair and sat down, "The misunderstanding has been resolved, so it's time to get back to business, right!"

"What do you want to know?"

"The real world." Aaron said concisely, "There are two kinds of people in this world, ordinary people and extraordinary people.

For example, the two people just now are ordinary people, and people like you who have lived for hundreds of years... No, relying on external objects to extend your life is also considered an ordinary person.

But there seems to be a special power in your body, which makes you out of the category of ordinary people."

Mrs. Gao's heart skipped a beat, and she felt that what she did just now was particularly wise.

'Qi' is her biggest secret, and it is also the fundamental reason why she can be so strong even at such an old age.

But Aaron actually saw it at a glance, and acted calmly, which can only mean that he didn't take himself seriously at all.

"What I want to know is what are the extraordinary people and forces, non-human creatures and forces in this world." Aaron looked at Mrs. Gao with interest, "The Hand and the Society have existed for hundreds of years, I think there must be no shortage of relevant information!"

"Why do you... want to know this?"

"In order to live a peaceful life, I am a fortune teller. One time, I had a whim to predict the future.

I can't see the details clearly, but I can be sure that the future is full of disasters of all sizes, and these disasters are caused by groups other than ordinary people."
