Chapter 95 Ayako Attacked
Chapter 95 Ayako Attacked
Under these circumstances, Su Xingbai dared not disagree and quickly shook his head.
"How could that be? Marrying one isn't enough. We'll go abroad and find a country where polygamy is allowed. We'll have a grand wedding and marry both you and Ayako."
"That's more like it. Let's speed things up." Sonoko nodded with a satisfied smile.
Seeing the smile on Yuanzi's face, Su Xingbai breathed a sigh of relief. This was a natural problem that arose when there were many women around him.
After descending the mountain, they were surprised to find that Ayako had also arrived at the foot of the mountain. After exchanging greetings, they decided to go to the supermarket together to buy things, and then go to buy groceries.
They hadn't been back to the villa for a long time. Now that the villa was repaired, they could come back and live there. It was much more comfortable to live in the villa on the mountain.
A group of people arrived at the supermarket, and Yuanzi, like a cheerful little bird, flitted between the shelves.
She picked up a beautifully packaged box of small fruits, waved it at Su Xingbai, and said with a smile, "This is my favorite. Buy more of these." Su Xingbai nodded indulgently and put the fruits into the shopping cart.
They're going to buy a lot of things to take up the mountain this time. If they buy more, they won't have to come out to buy things every day anymore, which is too much trouble.
They no longer need to be on-site every day to oversee the project. They can simply watch the monitors from home and ask the person in charge about the progress one-on-one.
If there is any major progress or breakthrough, the two of them will still need to be present; otherwise, they are no longer needed.
Meanwhile, Ayako stood in the fresh produce section, carefully selecting fresh vegetables. She gently compared the different colors of the greens and muttered to herself that she would make a signature dish tonight.
Just then, a man dressed in strange clothes suddenly appeared not far from Ayako. The man looked Ayako up and down with a mocking gaze, then pulled out a dagger and slowly walked towards her.
After buying some fruit with Sonoko, Su Xingbo went to the fresh produce section to choose dishes for dinner with Ayako.
As a result, Su Xingbai inadvertently looked up and saw the man with a dagger approaching Lingzi, and his heart was suddenly startled.
He subtly moved towards Ayako, while simultaneously giving Sonoko a wink. Sonoko nodded in understanding and quietly circled around to the man's back.
Ayako was unaware of the approaching danger and was still choosing between celery and water spinach, struggling with which one to choose.
Just at this time.
When the man was only a few steps away from Ayako, he suddenly accelerated and rushed over, raising his dagger high with both hands, about to bring it down heavily.
Just as the dagger was about to pierce Lingzi, Su Xingbo suddenly lunged forward and shoved the man aside. He then quickly stepped forward and used his knee to strike the man's abdomen, causing the dagger to fall to the ground with a clatter.
A series of quick moves instantly knocked the man's weapon to the ground and subdued him, rendering him unable to move.
Su Xingbo roared, "Who are you? Why are you hurting Lingzi? What is your purpose?"
The man, lying on the ground, sneered, "Hmph, one of me is dead, but there are still thousands more." Taking advantage of the crowd's momentary lapse in attention, he suddenly threw out several smoke bombs. Su Xingbai, worried about the two women's safety, got up and went to their side to protect them, while simultaneously keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings. Meanwhile, the man had already been helped up by his accomplices and fled the scene while the smoke filled the air.
After the smoke dissipated.
Sonoko hugged the frightened Ayako tightly and whispered comfortingly, "It's alright, I'm here for you."
Su Xingbai picked up the dagger and examined it, his brows furrowed, wondering what the mysterious man's purpose was.
Logically speaking, in Japan, getting a gun shouldn't be a big problem; you can definitely buy one as long as you have the money.
Moreover, this group of them all had smoke grenades, so how could they not have firearms? They just charged over like idiots with cold weapons like daggers.
Choosing a place like a supermarket is a bit strange.
After calling the police, I stayed where I was and waited for the investigation team to arrive. It wasn't the familiar Inspector Megure who came; it was Inspector Chiba.
However, the two knew each other. Officer Chiba had followed behind Inspector Megure on the previous occasions when he came, so they were old acquaintances.
"Officer Chiba, what brings you here today?" Su Xingbo greeted him with a smile.
Officer Chiba scratched his head and chuckled, "I happened to be nearby. When headquarters called, I came straight over."
"No wonder, he came in plain clothes. Officer Chiba is really dedicated."
After exchanging pleasantries, Officer Chiba went straight to the point and asked, "Oh, no, no, was there just a murder here?"
Su Xingbai nodded, his expression grave, and said, "Yes, that person was holding a dagger and tried to ambush Lingzi from behind. I saw him and subdued him, but I didn't expect him to have accomplices. They threw a lot of smoke bombs here, and in the end, his accomplices rescued him. There's only one dagger left here, but it's not very useful. That person was wearing gloves when he came."
Officer Chiba was instantly overwhelmed. This was an attempted murder, and the perpetrator had escaped with his accomplice, leaving no useful clues at the scene.
At that moment, Officer Chiba suddenly noticed that there were surveillance cameras in the four corners of the ceiling. Overjoyed, he rushed to the front desk to find the cashier and asked him to take him to the boss.
Su Xingbai and the others went along as well, mainly to see what his accomplice looked like. The face of the person who attacked with the dagger was not disguised at all; he had examined it and confirmed that it was not disguised.
This is what Su Xingbo finds strange. Even suicide squads don't come here to die like this. The whole thing seems odd.
Upon arriving at the boss's office, the group followed the cashier inside.
"I wonder what brings you all here to inquire about?"
Without saying a word, Officer Chiba immediately took out his police ID and showed it to the boss.
The boss, who had been sitting leisurely with his legs crossed, quickly stood up with a smile after seeing the police officer's ID, walked out from behind his desk, and came to stand in front of everyone.
Midway through, I secretly glared at the cashier. What a fool! He brought the police directly into his office without even saying hello. Was he afraid the cashier wouldn't be able to get in?
He carefully thought about the last things he had done and realized that he hadn't committed any crimes or illegal acts, which made him feel a little relieved.
The boss then tentatively asked, "I wonder what brings you here, officer? If you need my help, please let me know."
