The bar is not big, at least not very big compared to the surrounding buildings, but it can be regarded as a single-family house with a double-layer structure. The mud paint on the outer wall is covered with traces of wind and frost, and it is written in wanton English on one side. A wooden plaque with several characters of the 'Phantom Bar' hangs above the door frame.
Ito Cheng got off the motorcycle, parked it on the side of the road, and walked towards the bar.
"Squeak"
There was a strange friction sound of wooden shafts, and Ito Cheng entered the bar.
Instantly, a bar space with an area of ??about 100 square meters and a decoration very close to the American Western style came into Ito Cheng's eyes. Dozens of people dressed in fancy clothes were shouting. At first glance, they were not serious people. People gathered around the wooden round tables, drinking wine and chatting wantonly. The two girls looked exactly the same, but had slightly different hairstyles. The young blond woman, who also wore a black and white maid uniform, was walking around. The guests were served drinks.
Behind the bar of the bar, a young man dressed similar to a bartender, with short blond hair and a heroic look that made it difficult to distinguish between male and female, was quietly wiping the empty wine glass in his hand.
He is the owner of this bar, a fighter, and the evergreen tree of the KOF series - KING!
Hearing the door knock, KING raised his head and looked at Ito Cheng.
Ito Cheng let go of the arm holding the door panel, let it close on its own, and walked straight to the bar.
Along the way, other people in the bar also cast curious eyes on him.
"A glass of Bloody Mary." Ito Cheng, who sat down on the high chair in front of the bar, put his hands on the counter and looked at the blond KING in front of him.
"Okay." KING agreed. He put down the polished wine glass in his hand, turned around and took out the needed wine from the wine storage compartment under the countertop, and made a so-called Bloody Mary for Ito Cheng.
In less than a minute, a glass of bright red wine was pushed in front of Ito Cheng.
"Please use it slowly." KING said softly. Then he picked up another cup and wiped it there with his head down.
Ito Cheng picked up the wine glass, brought it to his mouth and took a sip.
"I heard that you sell information?" Ito Cheng put down his wine glass. He raised his head, looked at KING in front of him and said softly.
KING wiped the wine glass for a moment, looked up at Ito Cheng, then lowered his head to clean the wine glass again and said, "Occasionally I will make an order."
"I want to know someone's information." Ito Cheng looked at KING with burning eyes and said.
KING did not speak, nor did she stop her movements, but unexpectedly gave the impression that she was listening.
"A young female private detective named Mary." Ito Cheng continued.
"She's not from Nanzhen, right?" KING asked without raising his head.
"Yes. But I heard that he had a grudge against Giese." Ito Cheng nodded, and then sent a new piece of information.
"This is very dangerous." KING put down his wine glass and picked up a new one to wipe it.
¡°The price is easy to talk about,¡± Ito Cheng said with a smile.
When it comes to money, Ito Cheng, who has alchemy skills, is never short of money. As long as he has paper, he can make it on the spot. And the only one that can be said to be troublesome. In other words, the certification mark of the coin needs to be distracted.
What's more, he can also hypnotize bank staff and directly use the bad debts and dead debts in the bank for his own use, which is even more worry-free.
"I can give you news in five days." KING said quietly.
Ito Cheng nodded and drank the wine in the glass quietly.
"I still have a job, I wonder if you are willing to do it." After a moment of silence, Ito Cheng said again.
"Celebrity bodyguard." KING didn't wait to ask. Ito Cheng said it directly.
"Tell me the details." KING raised his head and looked at Ito Cheng and asked.
Ito Cheng did not explain immediately, but reached into his pocket, took out a business card from his pocket, put it on the table of the bar, and pushed it in front of KING.
"SHOWTIME Entertainment Co., Ltd., Shige Ito."
A piece of ink-black text caught KING's eyes.
"I am the boss of an entertainment company. I have so many celebrities under my control, and I recently plan to vigorously promote one of them to become a superstar. Therefore, the security force is somewhat insufficient, so I want to hire you as a bodyguard for a period of time. What do you think?" Ito Cheng raised his glass and took another sip."Water," said with a smile.
"Why me?" KING frowned.
"Because I only trust fighters, and the star I work for is a woman." Ito Cheng said softly.
"How long?" KING asked with some emotion.
"Compared to the dangerous work of selling information and running a tavern in a place like Nan Town, where dragons and snakes are mixed, being a bodyguard for a period of time can actually be regarded as an extremely easy job for her. And depending on the situation, the reward will be quite high, so why not? After all, she now owes a lot of foreign debt and is worried about how to make money to repay it.
"The time is uncertain." Ito Cheng replied.
"" KING hesitated.
Although she wanted to take over this comfortable job, this bar was her property after all. If it was just a short-term bodyguard job, that would be no problem, as long as the bar was temporarily handed over to Sari and Elizabeth. Someone can take care of it, but if it lasts for a long time, the bar will need to be temporarily closed, which is not in her interest.
"A month at most." KING said after thinking for a moment.
"Okay." Ito Cheng nodded and agreed.
Then there was another period of silence.
"I'll come to you in five days to get the news." Ito Cheng, who drank all the wine in his glass, took out a US dollar with a face value of 100 yuan and put it on the table, stood up and said.
"Okay." KING quickly stretched out his hand to hold down the dollar and took back the wine glass.
Although she moved quickly, some people in the bar who had been paying attention to Ito Cheng and KING still saw the face value of the dollar bill, their eyes lit up, and a look called greed flashed in their eyes.
And then. The few people looked at each other, stood up together, and followed Ito Cheng out of the Phantom Bar.
Although they are greedy, they are not stupid enough to know that they can open a bar in a place like Nanzhen. And people who are not afraid of people coming to mess up the situation either have great connections behind the scenes, or they are very strong and have established stability for themselves. This is not something that these gangsters can match. Naturally, they will not put their greedy thoughts on the boss. So it's very simple. The generous Ito became a fat sheep in their eyes.
What's more, Ito Cheng looks like an Asian, and his figure is not necessarily big and round. He looks like a weakling. Who else would you look for if you don't look for him?
KING naturally had a keen eye on the actions of those people. His brows wrinkled slightly. Then he put down his glass, turned around, and left the bar through the back door. He quickened his pace and took a detour to the front.
It¡¯s just that although her speed is fast, it can¡¯t match the speed of Ito Cheng¡¯s telekinesis, so she waits until she reaches the front. The figure of a bastard with broken hands and feet, rolling on the ground and moaning, came into her eyes.
Seeing this, KING's eyes narrowed slightly, and he secretly said in his heart, "He is a master!"
"I was mistaken. I didn't expect the boss of an entertainment company to have such great skills." Then, KING turned around and left, secretly saying with a self-deprecating look on his face.
On the other side, Ito Cheng, who left KING¡¯s Phantom Bar, disappeared from the streets of Nanzhen and returned to the villa he bought in the suburbs of Tokyo.
Follow. Ito Cheng left the house again and drove to the location of the Shiranui-ryu Dojo.
This time, he planned to use the same reason to fool Mai Shiranui, a beautiful woman.
Tens of minutes later, Ito Cheng arrived outside the Shiranui-ryu Gym and stopped the car.
The Shiranui-ryu gym is the same as other Japanese-style gyms. The ashrams are all built in the suburbs some distance away from the urban area. There are few vehicles around, rich vegetation, and it is very peaceful and quiet.
A white wall with only a double wooden door in the middle surrounds the Shiranui-ryu dojo.
Ito Cheng got out of the car and walked slowly into the dojo where the door was open.
In an instant, a wooden house from the Edo period appeared in front of Ito Cheng's eyes.
Ito Cheng stopped and shouted, "Is anyone there? Is anyone home?"
"Hey, it's coming, it's coming." Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a crisp and lively voice echoed in the dojo.
¡°Deng, Deng, Deng, Deng¡±
Then, accompanied by a burst of hurried footsteps, a man about 1.65 meters tall, wearing a pair of black home trousers, a beige short-sleeved shirt, with long black hair tied into a high ponytail behind his head with a special hairpin. The beautiful woman ran out from the verandah of the house nearby.
"Hello, I am the owner of the Shiranui-ryu Dojo, Mai Shiranui. I wonder why this gentleman is here" He walked quickly to?Mai Shiranui in front of Ito Cheng bowed to Ito Cheng very politely and asked softly.
"So beautiful, I wonder if I can just call you Mai?" Ito Cheng admired first, and then asked shamelessly.
"Um Sir, we are not familiar with each other yet, so you should call me by my last name." A trace of surprise flashed across Mai Shiranui's face, and then she politely declined.
"I don't know why you are here, sir" Then, Mai Shiranui asked again without giving Ito Cheng a chance to refute.
"That's it, I have a job here that I want to invite Miss Mai to perform." Ito Cheng still shamelessly called Mai Shiranui Mai.
"Work?" Mai Shiranui asked doubtfully.
And because of the doubts in his heart, even Ito Cheng didn't care about her shameless name.
"Yes, work." Ito Cheng smiled and said, "We are going to talk here?"
"I'm sorry, sir, please come with me." After this reminder, Mai Shiranui, who suddenly came back to her senses, quickly bowed to Ito Nari again and invited her sideways.
Ito Cheng was not polite and followed Mai Shiranui towards the guest room of the dojo.
After a while, Ito Cheng and Shiranui Mai both came to the guest room.
Mai Shiranui first asked Ito Cheng to sit down on the tatami, and then turned around and left the guest room again. It was not until a few minutes later that she came back with a round wooden tray with two porcelain tea cups on it, and knelt down opposite Ito Cheng. And down.
"Please use tea." Mai Shiranui put one cup in front of Ito Cheng and said politely.
"Thank you." Ito Cheng picked up the teacup, put it in his mouth and took a sip.
"Great tea art." Ito Cheng praised it.
"Let me introduce myself first. I am Ito Cheng, who will serve as the president of SHOWTIME Entertainment Co., Ltd." Ito Cheng put down the teacup, took out the business card from his pocket and handed it to Mai Shiranui while introducing himself.
Mai Shiranui leaned forward, took Nahira with both hands, held it in front of her, lowered her head and took a look.
"This presumptuous visit is because I want to give a job to Miss Mai, who is a well-known fighter." Ito Cheng continued.
"What kind of job?" Mai Shiranui put down her business card and asked doubtfully.
"Artist bodyguard." Ito Cheng smiled.
"Artist bodyguard?" Mai Shiranui frowned.
"Yes, our company recently planned to vigorously promote one of its artists to help her advance to the ranks of top stars. However, due to the hasty plan, we did not find suitable security personnel, which caused loopholes in our original promotion plan. So in order to avoid danger, I thought of you." Ito Cheng made it up casually.
"To be honest, Miss Wu, I am also a fighting enthusiast. I was also lucky enough to watch the King of Fighters competition held not long ago. It was at that time that I saw Miss Wu's heroic appearance and was instantly fascinated by you."
"Ha, haha" Mai Shiranui smiled awkwardly.
"Let's talk about work."
Mai Shiranui, who didn¡¯t want the topic to continue, quickly brought the topic back to the topic.
"Miss Mai's job is very simple. Until we find suitable security personnel, she will act as a bodyguard for our company's artist Asamiya Athena to ensure her personal safety during the promotion process." Ito Cheng nodded and said seriously. .
"Umwho did you just talk about?" Mai Shiranui asked with a surprised look on her face.
"Athena Asamiya." Ito Cheng repeated.
Ito Shige certainly understood why Mai Shiranui was surprised, because in the 1994 King of Fighters competition, Asamiya Athena had already participated in the competition with Shiki Kentaka and Zhengensai, and had met with her female fighter team. Although they are not familiar with each other, they still know each other, so naturally they will feel a little surprised when they hear the names of acquaintances from other people's mouths.
"Mr. Ito, since you have watched the King of Fighters competition, you should know that Athena is also a fighter, right?" Mai Shiranui couldn't help but say.
"Of course." Ito Cheng nodded and confirmed.
"Then why" Mai Shiranui asked doubtfully.
"In the King of Fighters competition, she is naturally a fighter, but privately, she is just an ordinary artist under my company. I naturally need to consider her safety. I can't let her take action personally if an accident occurs during promotion. That would damage her image as an artist." Ito Cheng explained patiently.
"That's it." Mai Shiranui suddenly said, then nodded and agreed, "Okay, then?I took the job. " - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
