Chapter 32 I’ll Eat Two Cups
"Have you heard of the story of Xia Ke Xing? In the second year of Yuanhe, the Huashan family...you have tasted enough, let me change it? Then the adventurer Joe William, 48 years old..."
Hearing Hayato's words, Malik picked his nose carelessly: "This is what I want to hear, serve it quickly - do you think I would say that, brother-in-law? Sister, she didn't ask me to ask you what you made up again. What kind of story can only deceive a three-year-old."
"Eh? Aren't you?"
Hayato's voice came from the other end of the phone. Malik couldn't tell what Hayato was doing from the noisy noise around him, so he said casually: "No, I'm at least ten or even nine years old."
"You can be satisfied at the age of nine, and your IQ is only at this level." Hayato complained, and then asked, "Why would Yinsi think of asking you to call me?"
"Sister, she has suddenly become busy again recently." Malik picked at the dirt between his nails and said casually, "It seems like last week? Something important was stolen from the British Museum in Victoria. Cultural relics, so long ago, there is no clue until today. No one even knows whether the cultural relics were sold on the black market outside of Victoria. Brother-in-law, you seem to have gone to Victoria. You should have heard news about this, right? "
"That's right." Hayato listened to Malik's words, raised his eyebrows, and said calmly.
"Victoria's cultural relics have nothing to do with people from other countries, but the cultural relics occupied by Victoria in the British Museum are related. However, before this incident, Victoria had always believed that the British Museum could be its cultural relics. We refuse to return cultural relics on the grounds of providing far more thoughtful and safe protection than what any country could originally provide."
Having said this, Malik smiled and said, "But as soon as the theft of cultural relics came out, the excuse that was as lame as an old lady's crutch was self-defeating. How could other countries let it go so well? What about a legitimate opportunity to take back your belongings? The reason of 'worrying about being stolen like the cultural relics this time' is simple and effective."
"Although the tomb-keepers secretly brought cultural relics back to Egypt a long time ago, with this excuse, those cultural relics that were originally hidden in the dark have the opportunity to be brought to the public for public viewing again, so My sister’s work at the Cultural Heritage Management Bureau has also increased. But overall, I still have to thank the person who stole the Victorian cultural relics. This is also thanks to him. "
"Speaking of which, that person is quite powerful. Although the people in Victoria caught a traitor who seemed to be the traitor within them and said he was the mastermind behind the theft of cultural relics, a blind person could see that he was clearly a scapegoat and the real person who stole the cultural relics. His identity has not been revealed until now." Malik paused and asked casually, "Brother-in-law, you are also in Victoria, do you have any clues?"
"I don't even know where the end of the universe is, how could I know who the person who stole the cultural relics is?" Hayato said confidently, and then he told Malik what he encountered during his time in Victoria. However, it is just a version that omits events such as Dazi and the golden shawl.
"I always feel that no matter where you go, brother-in-law, you will encounter something. Do you have a physique that is unique to the protagonist of the novel and is easy to get into trouble?" Hearing that Hayato was brought into Avalon and the legend King Arthur played a game of cards. Malik didn't think there was anything strange about it, he just got a feel for it. After all, he is Hayato. He will not be surprised if someone tells him that a pharaoh other than Atum has been resurrected from the underworld and comes to play cards with Hayato.
"If I were the protagonist of the novel, I would have been able to meet a dozen beautiful women while walking on the street, and then easily take them into the harem with my domineering attitude, instead of just being spun around by big birds. I'm thinking about the VIP members of the bar." Thinking of that guy from Datsu, Hayato complained, and after asking Malik to remember to clean up the house, he hung up the phone.
Although so much time has passed since Duel City, Malik still rents Hayato's house to this day. One reason is that Hayato's parents often stay abroad and do not go home, and Hayato's house is empty for him to stay. It doesn't matter. But at the same time, it was also because Malik, a gangster with no identity, could not buy a house to live in openly, especially now that Tongshiye City was increasingly "dominated" by the Haima Group.
However, this is just a small problem. The entire Doushino City can be said to be completely under Kaiba's surveillance. It's not like he doesn't know about Malik's existence. As long as Hayato tells him, he probably won't mind helping such a person. A small favor - but at the same time, it can be expected that Kaiba will definitely take the opportunity to ask Hayato to play cards with him.
The main reason why Malik lives in Hayato's house is actually because this guy is a lazy dog. Living alone is comfortable, but at the same time he also needs to deal with many troublesome things such as water, electricity, sanitation, etc. But if he lives in Hayato's house, , he only needs to help Hayato clean the house occasionally, and he doesn't need to worry about anything else.
Hayato didn't care too much, since his house was quite big anyway. Moreover, Malik is not the kind of double-standard holy tanuki who has no income of his own, lives at home and chants slogans of "world peace", and is ashamed of others' trust in him. Hayato has no special characteristics here. Refers to anyone.
After Hayato finished the phone call, Chronos seemed to have explained things to his family, told others about his plan to go to Duel Academy, came to Hayato and said: "Don't fight Tanli, Mr. Hayato, I We are ready to go and can go to Duel Academy at any time."
"Huh? Don't you need to go home, just to make a phone call? Don't you have any important luggage that you need to bring?"
Hearing Hayato's words, Chronos shook his head and said: "I don't have any important items at home that I need to carry with me. My parents are also very satisfied that I have found a meaningful job. Moreover, they are in good health and have servants." People are taking care of me, so there’s nothing I need to worry about.”
"I can't wait to report to the Duel Academy now. Just thinking about being able to teach my understanding of Duel Monsters and all aspects of knowledge to students, and help them who are more talented than me to go to higher places, I was so excited.”
In addition to being excited, Chronos also glanced at Hayato and said with some embarrassment: "What makes me even more excited and unbelievable is that Mr. Tanlito, your true identity is actually the legendary duel king Kobayashi Hayato, and I have traveled with you and even had a duel with you, it was really exciting and made me want to sing a song, no!”
Hayato had never expected this before he told Chronos his true identity. He had never heard Chronos mention that he was actually a fan of his. He had clearly told him that his identity was already It happened a few days ago, but to this day, Chronos still gets extremely excited every time he talks about himself.
Obviously in Hayato's impression, Chronos has never been a fan of any legendary duelist. Even if he tried his best to please Bekas, it was just to climb up from his original position. , not the yearning for Becas himself.
According to Chronos, the main reason why he became his fan is that among the many legendary duelists, he is the only one who uses mechanical monsters as one of the main forces to fight, namely Hayato's [AtoZ] 】Monsters, and compared to the magician race that Yugi is good at, the warrior race that Jonouchi is good at, and the dragon race that Kaiba is good at using, Chronos has a higher favorability towards the machine race. Although he does not hate other races, he has a higher opinion of using them. Hayato, a member of the mechanical race, has special admiration.
After all, since he is a duelist, he must not have the desire to become stronger. As the strongest duelist - the Duel King, Hayato is said to be the strongest machine when using monsters of the machine family. There is no problem for users of clan monsters.
Because Datsu is the pervert who shouts "Hayato, my hero" all day long, and Hayato, who has a little PTSD about fans and the like, is relieved after knowing that Chronos is more interested in himself as the goal of becoming stronger. Come and come with him to the airport where Hayato's plane landed when he came to Victoria, intending to leave this country shrouded in rain and fog.
The Public Security Bureau responsible for the theft of cultural relics was knocked down by Hayato with the "Three Phantom Demons" that day. Although he did not play a dark game, he used the power of the "Three Phantom Demons" to perform small operations on those who had their spiritual power absorbed. It was still very easy. Hayato erased the existence of himself and Chronos from their minds, making them forget what they had done that day, and this did not even require Hayato to accurately control the past one by one.
"Three Phantom Demons", very strange, right?
As for Klein, who was blessed by the elves, Hayato did nothing. He just "conveniently" took away the cards in his deck that did not have elves, and the [X-Swordsman] cards that did have elves. The monster Hayato had no interest in anymore and left it to Crane. Every time he thought of Hayato, he couldn't help but feel that he was too kind.
After being betrayed, Klein seemed to have tried to expose the existence of Hayato and Chronos, but he had been labeled a "betrayer" and was quickly pushed out by his superiors as a scapegoat. He was forcibly terminated without recovering the golden shawl, and Hayato even saw Klein appear on TV.
He was clearly someone who was betrayed, but was labeled a traitor. At that time, Hayato also lamented that Klein was really pitiful. He drank two extra glasses of Coke when he saw him being stripped of the titles and medals he had been awarded.
Since Chronos does not need to return to Italy, the two of them just need to go directly to Duel Academy Island. However, when Hayato took Chronos without buying a ticket, but walked directly into the VIP room after telling someone, Chronos was very confused.
"Don't you need to buy a ticket, Mr. Hayato?" In Kuronos' impression, it should be common sense to buy a ticket first before taking a plane, but judging from Hayato's appearance, has he already bought the ticket in advance?
"I didn't buy the tickets in advance, Mr. Kuronos." As if he could read minds, Hayato, who was randomly choosing his favorite snacks on the bar in the VIP room, replied to Kuronos, "Buy the tickets." It is indeed a normal process to fly before you can fly. However, if the plane is your own, do you still need to buy a ticket? "
"My own plane?" Kronos was stunned. He looked from the transparent glass wall of the VIP room towards the tarmac outside the airport. He noticed at a glance that a small passenger plane spray-painted red was slowly coming from the airport. Exit from the hangar.
As the largest shareholder of the International Illusion Society, Hayato has long since no longer needed his family's money. He is very rich himself and has long customized a plane from the European Airbus Company, also known as "Airbus". My own private jet was only completed recently because it was a completely customized product. Hayato informed them that they no longer had to send them specifically to Dongguo. Instead, he asked them to send the plane to the airport in Victoria and wait for him to take it.
"Airbus A380, this is the prototype model of this aircraft. Airbus seems to be planning to use this aircraft to challenge the dominance of Boeing 747 in the long-distance aviation passenger market. However, this has little to do with this customized model because its configuration is similar to It’s completely different from a universal one. I even customized a game arcade, a duel arena, and a swimming pool inside, and the price is only three billion US dollars, of which one billion is used to cut queues and improve Airbus’ work efficiency.”
Hayato, who was happily eating the free yogurt provided in the VIP room, casually introduced it to Kuronos, "I named it 'Steel Tank'. Don't ask why an airplane is called a tank. Airbus's design The teacher also asked me curiously, and my answer was because I bought it, so I am happy with it."
"Now I completely understand, Mr. Hayato, what did you mean when you said 'no matter how rich you are, I don't have money'? Compared with you, I feel like I am still a beggar." Chronos smiled. He shook his head and saw that Hayato had a cup in addition to the yogurt in his hand. Thinking that Hayato had taken a portion for himself, he said, "Well, I don't really like this kind of cheap yogurt."
"Oh, I'll have two drinks." Hayato waved his hand, "I feel okay, but who said it's free? The staff should prepare the plane soon. Let me treat you to this 'air ticket' Okay, Teacher Kuronos."
As he spoke, Hayato used his free hand to rub his chin, and said to himself, "However, if I just set off by plane, I always feel that something is missing. Now, let's talk about it later."
"Guntank, Hayato Kobayashi, attack!"
