104: Chapter 104 Mysterious Blood Relationship!
Then, this guy hid himself back in the utility room at the corner of the eighteenth floor.
He waited patiently, and sure enough, it wasn't long before he heard the sound of a food cart passing by.
Relying on his extensive experience, he cracked the door open in advance, and when the food cart passed by, he yanked the delivery staff inside.
He knocked the guy unconscious and changed into the delivery staff's clothes.
Finally, he picked up the delivery staff's shoes.
Just as he was about to put them on, he realized the shoes were a bit too small.
In the end, he had no choice but to give up on changing shoes.
"Mine are also black leather shoes, and they look somewhat similar to this pair."
"There shouldn't be any issues."
Kuroda Yūjin pondered for a moment and ultimately decided to ignore this small detail.
After all, he could easily use the food cart to block his own leather shoes while delivering the meal.
Next, he took out a small vial of colorless and odorless liquid he had prepared beforehand.
He carefully poured it into each serving of food.
Very quickly, the liquid completely dissolved into the food, leaving no visible signs of anything being added.
"Respected guest, your ordered meal has arrived."
Kuroda Yūjin deliberately kept his head lowered and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Come in."
Who would have thought that the person who suddenly opened the door was Bodyguard Liu?
He first scanned the delivery staff in front of him with a hint of vigilance, and after finding nothing unusual, he turned and walked inside.
Kuroda Yūjin efficiently arranged every item of the meal.
Judging solely by his movements, one couldn't spot a single flaw in this guy.
After all, he had done things like this many times before.
He had even specifically learned the table-setting methods of five-star hotel staff.
"What a sumptuous feast!"
Beside him, Xue Shuangshuang was already rubbing her little hands together, her eyes filled with anticipation.
"Alright, Bodyguard Liu, you two should go back as well."
Shen Zhou waved his hand with a chuckle.
After the meal, he and Xue Shuangshuang would not be leaving the hotel.
Therefore, they wouldn't need the two bodyguards to guard them for the time being.
"Mr. Shen, please take your time with your meal. I keep feeling that the delivery staff from just now was a bit strange."
Bodyguard Liu hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up.
He turned and recalled the details of the delivery staff entering the room with the female bodyguard beside him.
After a simple comparison, alarm bells immediately rang in both their minds.
"It couldn't be that exaggerated, could it? This is a five-star hotel, after all."
Shen Zhou was a bit surprised.
Could it be that scenes from movies would actually happen?
Or was the security at a star-rated hotel really that incompetent?
"Mr. Shen, the leather shoes that delivery staff was wearing were problematic."
"The material of those shoes was different from the ones I've seen the hotel staff wearing."
Bodyguard Liu said in a deep voice.
He finally realized why he had felt a vague sense of unease when he saw the delivery staff just now.
Including Pete, all the staff Bodyguard Liu had seen were wearing the same type of shoes.
But that guy just now was wearing a different pair of shoes.
"The shoes were different?"
Shen Zhou was a bit confused.
How would he have noticed the leather shoes a delivery staff was wearing?
"Mr. Shen, even if there's only a slight possibility, we must eliminate the danger."
"So I suggest you don't eat the meal yet."
The female bodyguard on the side also said with a grave expression.
Then, the female bodyguard stayed behind to guard Shen Zhou and the other, while Bodyguard Liu pushed open the door and walked out.
On the other side, Kuroda Yūjin had just entered the utility room to change back into his clothes.
Then, using the peephole to scan left and right, he cautiously walked out wearing his original attire.
Bodyguard Liu, who had walked out of the room, had already been waiting at the corner and happened to see this sneaky guy.
After observing carefully, he discovered that the guy was wearing the exact same shoes as the delivery staff from earlier.
"Damn it, someone really is up to no good!"
Bodyguard Liu took a deep breath and did not act rashly to alert the enemy.
He watched helplessly as Kuroda Yūjin knocked on the door where Kameda Nagayasu was staying, and he noted down the room number.
"Sure enough, it's this little Japanese guy who is causing trouble!"
Bodyguard Liu suddenly realized the truth.
Shen Zhou had only had conflicts with this guy from the island nation, so he was his primary suspect.
After clarifying everything, Bodyguard Liu rushed back to Shen Zhou's room and recounted everything he had seen.
Shen Zhou gasped in shock.
"This little Japanese guy is truly sinister. Thanks to you two being here, otherwise I would have really fallen for it."
"Old Liu, rest assured, there will be no shortage of bonuses for you two when we get back."
Shen Zhou patted Bodyguard Liu on the shoulder with a solemn expression, naturally switching to a more intimate form of address.
"Let's go eat outside, preferably far away from this hotel."
After a brief consideration, Shen Zhou finally made up his mind.
After all, even the meals at a five-star hotel could be tampered with.
Who knew if the hotel staff had colluded with that little Japanese guy?
"Shen Zhou, that little Japanese guy is just too inhumane!"
"He wouldn't have put poison in our food, would he?!"
Walking on the road, Xue Shuangshuang held onto Shen Zhou's arm tightly.
What happened just now made her feel incredibly thrilled, yet also somewhat fearful in hindsight.
"Old Liu has already entrusted someone to send the food for testing."
"That food is also evidence; no matter what, I won't let that little Japanese guy get away with it!"
Shen Zhou said, gnashing his teeth.
The ancients truly didn't deceive me when they said that those not of our race must have different hearts!
What a great little Japanese guy; just watch how I deal with you tomorrow night!
In the end, the group chose a relatively upscale Western restaurant.
After finishing their meal, they immediately returned to their room.
That night, Old Liu and the other female bodyguard took turns keeping watch, constantly alert to any movement outside the door.
Just as Shen Zhou was about to fall asleep, the system's notification sound rang in his mind.
[Ding!]
[A dragon resides in the wild, surrounded by danger. Congratulations to the host for successfully resolving the food poisoning crisis.]
[Task Reward: Mysterious overseas bloodline connection.]
[Reward Description: Within one month, a mysterious overseas individual will establish a bloodline connection with Shen Zhou!]
"Hiss!"
Shen Zhou immediately lost all sleepiness.
"Brother System, you aren't joking with me, are you?"
"Are you just going to give me an extra relative out of the blue like this?"
"Even if you must find me a relative, please make sure to find me someone powerful, and don't bring me a bunch of trouble!"
Shen Zhou couldn't help but pinch the space between his eyebrows.
He had been living quite comfortably, and if a bunch of messy, nonsensical matters were to really get dragged out...
How would he still have so much time to enjoy himself freely with the many beauties?
Thinking this in his heart, Shen Zhou soon turned to his side, embraced the delicate body, and fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, the breakfast the two ate was something Old Liu and the others had specifically bought from outside.
"Shen Zhou, the Auction doesn't start until tonight. Why don't we go out for a stroll during the day?"
Xue Shuangshuang suddenly suggested.
