Chapter 356: Times Have Changed
"Old Fan, Lorna and the rest aren't here. Even if you gave me the liquor, who would know?"
Inside the Fishpond izakaya, the dolphin in the large water tank splashed about. "I don't want much, just a bottle of Fenggu."
The bar was mostly empty. Old Cai was nursing a drink, while Old Fan stood behind the counter wiping glasses.
"Just bear with it a bit longer, Roden," Old Cai said with a laugh. "Liquor is just liquor. It tastes best when you're craving it anyway."
"I really don't want to provoke your daughter, Commander Lorna," Old Fan said flatly. "And that Thermos Cup kid. They're all crazy. The things those kids dare to do are far more ruthless than anything from our day. All they do is cause trouble."
Even though they had been forced to fight, this incident was no small matter.
A few days ago, they had killed that potential Reed Group heir at the overdrive tier over in the Mudpit.
That bunch of kids sure had a great time of it. They even took the championship in the winter racing tournament, and the news had already spread back to the Kabukicho area.
That Seth Special Impairment individual, Red-Haired Liz, had visited the Fishpond to tell them not to worry. She said the Bank wouldn't mobilize for war over this.
