Chapter 222: Killer Queen
After the noisy chaos at the Fishpond, Gu He returned to the Sakata Apartments for the night.
Early the next morning, he went to Miss Ayane's living quarters on the second floor of the Licai club.
"Miss Ayane, I remember when I first arrived at the Fishpond, you told Old Fan you had some urgent business and that I might be the final piece of the puzzle for your team. What was that all about?"
Gu He was waiting for Miss Sakai, but he also had a few things he wanted to discuss with Miss Ayane.
"That was originally a job for the Yakuza, another data transport run. But after everything that happened, the job was scrapped long ago."
Ayane Kumiko, dressed in a floral kimono, smiled. "In Liuguang City, plans can rarely keep up with changes, so people here seldom make long-term arrangements. Just hearing about them is terrifying."
Hearing that the job was gone didn't surprise Gu He in the slightest.
Recent events aside, the Fishpond was never a mysterious organization to begin with—just a pack of street dogs huddled together.
"Little He, you've brought so much to the Fishpond over these past few months. When I first brought you back from Brother Zhuang, I never expected it. What you've done for us, and the merits you've earned for the Yakuza, have more than repaid me for saving you."
