The villain knight doesn't want to be a hero

Of course, even if you say that, you can't agree so easily.

"Although it's not impossible to bring it out, for some reason I don't really want to speak... Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to refuse, it just involves some past things that I don't want to mention... ....”

So isn't it the same as if you didn't say anything?

Lin Qiao held her chin with one hand and held her chest with the other hand, making tut sounds from time to time, as if she was very troubled.

After thinking "seriously" for about a minute, I made a suggestion.

"Well... let's call it an exchange of interests. I will tell you everything about my past, but on the other hand, I also hope that you can provide some of the information I want."

"intelligence?"

The ghouls in the Anding District looked at each other, and then turned their attention to Fangcun Gongshan, the old god.

"...Can you tell me more specifically?"

Without making an immediate decision, the store manager decided to listen to his request before making any plans.

"Don't worry, it's not that difficult for you to find out."

Lin Qiao said calmly.

"All I want is information about Tsukiyama Xi, including the ghoul restaurant he opened in District [-]."

"..."

"..."

"......"

In contrast to Lin Qiao's relaxed tone, were the expressions of other people in the Anding District.

The words "tangled" were suddenly transferred from the spider monster's face to them.

how to say.

If it's difficult, it's not that difficult. After all, Yue Shanxi has come to Anding District once or twice. Everyone knows the information about him. Even if there is no time left for investigation, he can tell a lot with his mouth.

The same applies to his ghoul restaurant.

Even if no one has been there in person because they don’t agree with the concept, it’s still okay to give an approximate location.

However, the problem is that this matter itself is quite difficult for them.

Although Lin Qiao didn't say it directly and didn't show any emotions such as murderous intent or hatred, they could see that this guy was just going to kill Yue Shanxi.

They didn't think much about the reason.

With the things that Yue Shanxi had done, it was not surprising at all that his enemies would come to his door.

Kirishima Touka was a little moved: "Store manager..."

But Fangcun Gongshan raised his hand to stop her from continuing.

Ignoring other factors, from a trading perspective, this is a sure win.

but.....

"It is the principle of the stable area that ghouls help each other... Although I don't know what kind of past you and Tsukiyama have, I'm sorry, but we can't betray our compatriots."

Shaking his head, the store manager's old voice revealed a lot of helplessness.

The principle of mutual aid between ghouls is the foundation of the stable area. If they betray Tsukiyama Xi today because they don't like it, then who can guarantee that they will not betray other people?

Some things, once started, will happen countless times.

"Really, that's really a pity."

She said it was a pity, but Lin Qiao's heart was unmoved.

It seemed a pity that he didn't get the information about Guan Yueshan Xi, but the store manager's reaction was exactly what he expected.

——To put it bluntly, he never thought about being honest from the beginning.

It's so outrageous that no one will believe it.

If the store manager really chooses to pursue the inquiry, he will only make up a decent excuse to fool him first, and then selectively report it to the CCG depending on the situation.

Scraps?

Very disdainful!

But no matter how true the lie is, it is still false. Once discovered, it will be equivalent to bankruptcy of credit.

By then, he would naturally be unable to maintain a friendly relationship with Anding Zone, and would even turn Anding Zone towards another traveler.

In this case, it is better to prepare early and eliminate possible dangers in advance... or something...

However, all of the above are only hypothetical, and it would be great if they didn’t actually happen.

"However, although it is a pity that the transaction failed, I can still provide you with some help." Lin Qiao raised an index finger and said quite considerately.

"At present, the guy hiding behind the scenes obviously has a certain understanding of the Anding Zone. This can be seen from the fact that his target is Dikou mother and daughter."

"Maybe he came in person, or left some objects that can monitor you. As for the time, it shouldn't be too long, probably around the last time."

"You can recall specifically whether you have met any special people...such as foreigners or something."

Lin Qiao's words caused the store manager and others to fall into silence. They all thought about whether they had seen anyone matching the description during this period, but they quickly shook their heads.

Most of the customers in their store are regular customers. If you are a stranger, you can tell them at a glance.

But among these people, there was no one who fit the characteristics described by Lin Qiao.

Except... Kirishima Touka.

"Um, I've never seen foreigners...but...ah, how should I put it?"

The words fell out of her mouth but she couldn't say them out. It seemed that she didn't dare to confirm whether her thoughts were right or not, so she scratched her head irritably.

"Anyway, there is one suspicious person, and the time is right, and he doesn't smell like other humans..."

Oh.

If nothing else, just focus on the last point, it’s almost certain.

In this world, there are only a few people who do not have RC cells in their bodies.

"His name is Shi Mori Qiao."

"..."

"..."

"......"

"......"

"?"

The eyes of the others were all focused on Lin Qiao. Although they didn't say a word, the slight curve of the corners of their mouths seemed to say everything.

.....Wait, why do I feel like I'm being excluded from others?

Dong Xiang, who looked at the expressions of the people around him getting more and more wrong, always felt a little confused.

The store manager glanced at Dong Xiang who knew nothing strangely, then sighed helplessly and looked at Lin Qiao: "Didn't you tell Dong Xiang when you were upstairs?"

"......forget."

Chapter 36 Lost Memories 4k

When Lin Qiao walked out of the stable area that night, a peaceful life came again.

Regarding Tsukiyama Xi, although Anding District did not give him the information he wanted, nor did he reveal anything related to the ghoul restaurant.But he also promised not to interfere in this matter and not to tell anyone else about his existence.

That's enough.

Lin Qiao has never regarded them as partners who can fight side by side in the stable area, at least not until now.

What is expected of them is that when they have a conflict with another time traveler, they can remain neutral and not get involved.

However, it may be because he has increased his favorability in the Anding District enough.

Before leaving, the store manager revealed one very important thing to him: At this time of year, Yue Shanxi has a regular habit of traveling abroad.

Hawaii, Maldives, Sicily, Taj Mahal...

It can take as long as half a month and as short as one week.

Although for some reason, I came back later than before this year, but it should be about the same.

"I just asked why I couldn't find any trace of this guy. So that's what happened."

He can understand why Yueshan Xi delayed his return plan.

It was simply because he was afraid that the CCG would come to him after the story of the Yamashita group selling humans to ghoul restaurants was exposed.

Although the Tsukiyama family has a great business and a wide range of connections, and even the current Prime Minister Wakayama is a classmate and old friend of his father, for something like this where there is no evidence or even suspicion on him, the investigators are not interested at all. Maybe what to him.

but...

The less trouble, the better.

It would be better to stay abroad and wait until the limelight has passed before coming back.

Moreover, even if something unexpected happens, such as triggering a hell-level dungeon like the "Tsukiyama Family Crusade", causing the CCG to launch a full-scale attack on the Tsukiyama Family.

But with him here, at least the last spark of the Yueshan family can be preserved for a comeback in the future.

It is indeed a big family.

It was easy to figure out the ways inside. Lin Qiao understood that to a certain extent, this was the butterfly effect caused by himself, although this did not hinder his next actions.

Now, the discussion on the Internet about the Yamashita group's human trafficking to ghouls is slowly fading, and it has even been overshadowed by the news that a pair of has-been celebrity couples have cheated on each other.

The celebrity couple became famous through this, and obtained more resources than at their previous peak... If you say that the Yueshan family did not contribute anything, Lin Qiao would not believe it for the first time.

Fine.

Looking at this posture, the eldest son of the Yueshan family should be returning like lightning in the near future.

So what he needs now is just to wait patiently...

Of course, that doesn't mean there's nothing to do now.

Since then, he has been going to Anding District more and more frequently. Even though the cafe has recently announced that it will be closed, it does not affect him at all from walking in through the back door and ordering a cup of mixed coffee.

Strictly speaking, he and Anding District are not allies, not even a cooperative relationship.

But someone doesn't seem to have this understanding. Like an old man, he often just sits there all day long, and even has the foresight to bring a charger.

Every time Dong Xiang sees him, no matter what happened before, his expression will quickly become extremely weird.

It's probably the kind of person who wants to drive someone away but doesn't know how to speak.

It's not like Lin Qiao came here intentionally to make people uncomfortable.

On the one hand, he had originally planned to continue "staying" in Anding District. In his opinion, with Yueshan Xi's character, if he learned that Anding District was attacked after returning, he would most likely come over no matter what he thought. trip.

On the other hand, I will continue to communicate with the store manager about Amazon.

Today’s Amazon is simply too little.

Although the actual number is actually quite large, and there are even more existences hidden in the dark, but compared to the expected large-scale outbreak, these at the moment are only a drop in the bucket at best.

This is a good thing, but it's also a bit unreasonable and feels more like a deliberate attempt to control Amazon's numbers.

After all, if it were released in places like water plants, there would probably be few normal people in the entire city at this time.

But no matter what, the sooner the opponent is eliminated, the fewer people will be infected and the safer he will be.

It doesn't have to be killed. You can also break the limbs and imprison them to avoid system bugs.

It's just that amidst such tension, there is a hint of relaxed daily life. When Lin Qiao stepped into the stable area again, some of the atmosphere inside seemed to have changed.

"It seems that I came at a bad time today... shall I go?"

"No, please come in. In a sense, this is what you want to change with Ishimori."

As if he had foreseen Lin Qiao's arrival, Fangcun Gongshan sighed and invited him in.

Today is the fourth day since Ryoko Diguchi woke up from a serious injury.

After a few days of recuperation, coupled with the recovery power of the ghoul itself, her complexion has changed a lot... In addition to being a little difficult to accept the death of her husband, her spirit seems a little depressed.
