Chapter 327: Chapter 327: Specialty District
The one who made the move was, of course, Lu Zheng.
The drone came at Lin Wan and her group, which Lu Zheng spotted immediately; he then raised his hand and used two blasts of Sword Qi to blow it up in mid-air.
As for that van? A Soul Suppressing Curse from the Inference Secret Technique instantly knocked everyone in the vehicle unconscious.
Seeing the police gather and take everyone from the van away, Lu Zheng followed Lin Wan’s taxi.
After just a couple of blocks, they arrived at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, without any incident. It’s unclear if there’s nothing else happening or if others couldn’t make it back from different directions.
Watching Lin Wan and her two companions get off the car and hurriedly welcomed inside by a team of police officers, Lu Zheng decided not to go in.
No matter how bad things are in Japan, it shouldn’t be chaotic enough for someone to break into the police department... right?
Lu Zheng rubbed his chin, recalling plots from certain anime, blinked, and suddenly felt it wasn’t so reassuring.
"Forget it, forget it, that’s a cartoon, this is reality, can’t compare, can’t compare!" Lu Zheng shook his head and then discreetly revealed his presence in a secluded spot.
That’s the good thing about being abroad, outdoor monitoring is scarce, so no one can spot anything unusual about him.
Avoiding the streets where the incident happened earlier, Lu Zheng arrived at Tokyo’s most famous Ginza.
Here lies the busiest commercial district in Tokyo City Center, where the trendiest young men and women and the most luxurious fashion brands gather.
Cars bustling, people moving endlessly.
The accident from several blocks away did not affect the operation here; neon lights still flashed, and it’s stays extravagant and indulgent.
"Aside from the names I can’t recognize, it feels just like South City Middle Road, Haidong."
Walking, Lu Zheng let his gaze linger on various slender waists and long legs.
By now, night had fallen, but the sea breeze from the Pacific Ocean carried a slight chill, which the teens and twenties seemed impervious to.
Tsk, tsk, no wonder there used to be stories circulating back home of strict winter training camps; Japanese people really are in good shape!
"I just remembered, what was the name of that place?" Lu Zheng scratched his head, "The place frequently appearing on various platforms, just its name would make people click on it?"
It’s been a while since I’ve watched short videos online; my knowledge is a bit rusty.
What town was it again?
Ding dong!
"Snap!" with a snap of fingers, Lu Zheng laughed out loud, "Haha, remembered, Shinjuku Kabuki-cho!"
The sound was a bit loud, causing those around him to turn their heads.
"Bah! Pervert!"
"Buddy, you got lost; Kabuki-cho isn’t here, this is Ginza."
"Are you going? Are you alone? Want to join up? After all, being unfamiliar in a foreign place, it’s better with company to avoid getting scammed."
Lu Zheng fled in a hurry.
Even though the Japanese pronunciation of Kabuki-cho differs completely from Chinese, why are there so many Chinese people here?
Unbelievable!
Lu Zheng dashed into the adjacent mall, found a bubble tea shop, took out his yen, and bought a cup of bubble tea.
What? Where did the yen come from?
Don’t ask, that’s inconvenient to explain.
After buying bubble tea, Lu Zheng strolled through the mall, drinking while wandering, and soon Lin Wan’s phone call came through.
"Done with business?" Lu Zheng asked.
"Not yet." Lin Wan replied, "The evidence was delivered, but due to the recent battle, we need to assist in taking some statements."
Lu Zheng raised his eyebrow.
Lin Wan continued, "Estimate I’ll be done by midnight; don’t wait for me, go have dinner first, then find a hotel to stay."
"Can you come over tonight?"
"Sure." Lin Wan said, "I’ll give you a call once I’m finished here."
"Okay!"
Lu Zheng hung up the call, checked his phone for nearby hotels, and found one with good ratings near Shinjuku.
Lu Zheng: (◔◡◔)
...
After booking a room, he set off for a stroll.
Lu Zheng wasn’t thinking much, merely exploring the area, but inadvertently wandered into a lively, bustling nightlife spot.
Lu Zheng thought about it; since he’s here, might as well take a look!
With a turn of his feet, he entered this world-renowned nightlife district.
"Oh wow! Oh, wow!"
Walking along, Lu Zheng rubbed his chin, viewing the scene with an artistic and technical eye, appreciating details.
One must admit, Japan indeed has a talent for certain unique domains.
As he walked, beautiful girls came up to start conversations. Seeing Lu Zheng was Chinese, some gave up when noticing he couldn’t understand; others were even more enthusiastic, pointing at nearby nightclubs, ready to use their phones for on-the-spot translations.
"Thanks! Thank you!"
Lu Zheng laughed and thanked them while politely declining.
Are you kidding me, I’m just here out of curiosity to see and learn; you truly think I’d enter a nightclub and get flirtatious?
No, I’m a gentleman; coming here was an accident!
Lu Zheng smiled and declined a beautifully made-up, scantily clad girl, only to receive a call from Lin Wan.
"All done here; Brother Hong went to the branch to book a hotel, so I’m coming over—where are you now?"
Then, the various music and bustling voices surrounding him transmitted over the phone.
Before Lu Zheng spoke, Lin Wan distinctly said, "Ka! Bu! Ki! Cho!"
Lu Zheng was utterly shocked, "How did you know?"
"Bah! What kind of music is that, am I deaf or something?" Lin Wan said with irritation.
Lu Zheng blinked; on the street, while electronic music plays in the background, there’s a hint of sounds that might make one blush uneasily.
Turning to look back, it emanated from the speakers at a nearby nightclub entrance; its door sign features what appears to be at least a ninety-score girl, vividly illuminated.
"Whoa——"
Lu Zheng couldn’t help but gasp.
"What are you doing?"
Hearing Lu Zheng’s gasp, Lin Wan was taken aback.
"I’m window-shopping!" Lu Zheng immediately replied.
"Kabuki-cho?" Lin Wan confirmed
"Yes." Lu Zheng honestly admitted.
Lin Wan pursed her lips and then...
"I’ll take a cab over; find an easy spot for me to find you."
"Shall I wait at the hotel?"
"No need; since we’re here, just stroll if you want."
"Actually, I’ve mostly finished wandering."
"..."
Lu Zheng blinked and teased, "Would Officer Lin wish to critique too?"
"Do you want to die! Back to the hotel!"
Lu Zheng laughed heartily, then promptly apologized, "Come on, as long as you’re not going into those special nightclubs, it’s all good. There’s genuinely decent nightclubs, worth seeing since you’re here, quite distinctive!"
"Hmph! Just you wait!"
...
Lu Zheng decided not to have Lin Wan find any landmark but waited at the Kabuki-cho entrance until Lin Wan arrived.
