"Here, there's a rainy season mushroom that was just picked up this afternoon. Please try. It still feels fresh. Good for your health, Brother," said Chen Zen, putting the food with his chopsticks, on the rice on top of the bowl that Ken was holding.
"Oh, thank you." Ken tried. "Mmh, delicious."
"Don't forget, this is the best beef in town," Cia did not want to lose, putting a piece of beef on the bowl of the short-haired man.
"Oh, yes, thank you." Ken tried it too.
He glanced at Lian Luo's wife, who was silent in front of her bowls of rice. "Mrs, let's eat." He felt a little guilty because he knew, because he was his son died. "I feel disrespectful when I eat, but the hostess doesn't eat."
The woman tried to smile at Ken. "All right." The woman began to eat.
Ejiro was a little jealous of Ken's achievements that were quickly popular in the presence of the women. While he, probably because there are scars on the face, giving the impression of being violent and urination. His face is not perfect. Ken who looks neat, like a home child, let alone his polite appearance with clean white skin, all circles must accept people like this in association.
However, Ken is not his name, if only thinking of himself. "Ejiro, let's eat." He put the piece of meat on the warm rice in the man's bowl.
"Thank you." The man began to bribe his food.
Although Lian Luo was busy talking to her friend, she also had time to notice her two daughters who were interested in Ken, and how polite the young man was to his wife who was having trouble eating. He just smiled thinly.
Seeing the passive Ejiro, Ken invites him to chat with the two girls. "Oh, this is my college brother. He was the innkeeper on the outskirts of that city, you know!"
"Yes," cried Cia widening her eyes.
"Yes. Sometime, I'll take you there, "welcome Ejiro. He was happy for Ken to invite him to chat with the two beautiful girls.
After dinner, the three accompanied Lian Luo to the Defense Minister's house on horseback. There were many people who began to arrive from various places to attend the meeting invitation.
They then came to an open room where many people had entered and were sitting on the floor waiting for the minister to come.
15 Minutes later, the Defense Minister came with his bodyguard. Everyone in the room immediately stood up and bowed, saluting him including Lian Luo's entourage.
After that everyone sat back down and began to listen to the minister speak. The man began to tell about the events that have happened to the country lately and asked those present can work hand in hand to solve this problem.
Lian Luo stood up. "Sorry, Minister. There's something I want to tell you, Minister, about this incident." Then tell him what Odagiri has told him.
The minister was silent for a moment, after the man finished his speech. "Mh, is this information reliable?"
"Can, Minister. I got it from the source directly, my friend here, Odagiri. He's already killed people who were exposed to the dlakula poison." The rich man turned to his friend who then stood up.
Oh, this Japanese guy. It should be a little suspicious that there are Japanese here. "Truly they should be destroyed? Is there no medicine that can neutralize the poison?" ask the Minister to Odagiri.
Odagiri glanced at Ken. "How's it?"
"Eh ...."
"Actually, who understands this dlakula?" ask the minister in astonishment.
Odagiri finally opened his voice. "Actually, it was this disciple of mine who understood how to deal with people who had contracted this disease before. I got all the information from him."
Ejiro encouraged Ken to stand up. I don't want that short-haired man standing up. The people present saw the man's appearance which was quite strange because in that era everyone, men and women with long hair. Short hair became a trend after a few hundred years later.
"Sorry, Minister. Maybe I can answer," said the short-haired man forced to speak.
"Yes please."
"Those who have been infected with this poison are difficult to control because there is a savage side that causes the person to be dangerous. Besides being able to transmit this pain to others, they are also tempted to drink human blood to quench thirst and it is done when night falls. So for the cure, so far only for those who have not been bitten by them for a long time, that can be treated. Which has not been possible for a long time. It was also with acupuncture treatment by removing the poison," Ken explained at length.
"Yes, minister. His instincts are like that."
"If I do that, it means that most of the city's population will definitely run out huh," the royal-clothed man murmured while thinking long.
"Yes, Minister" said the short-haired man.
"So they transmit it by biting? Meaning those who can not stand to go out during the day means that they have contracted this plague. Didn't you?"
"Maybe not all."
"Lho, you said ...."
"Those who have bite marks on the neck may be, Minister, because of the characteristics of sick people, some are not strong to withstand the sun but that does not mean to get this dlakula virus."
"so." The royal-clothed man heaved a heavy sigh. "Finally answered all the riddles that surround this problem, why there is a sadistic murder in this city, but the Caucasian, I have to look for it. He was the first spreader of this plague. He must be put to death."
He then glanced at Ken. "In that case, since you understand this, I'm going to lead the rescue of this city. From tomorrow, you'll take care of everything. Everyone will bow down and obey your orders."
"Okay, Minister." Everyone prostrated to the Minister of Defense including Lian Luo and Odagiri.
"Eh, what?" As everyone was prostrating, Ken joined in and bowed to the Minister. Even so, he still did not understand what was happening. Lead the city rescue? A man as young as himself? He was probably the youngest person in the room. He straightened his body as the others straightened his body.
"From today, you'll stay here. You'll be my men" the minister said.
"Eh?"
Again the men prostrated themselves and the short-haired man bowed to the minister, and then straightened his back to follow the others.
"So, Sensei. I should how?" ken whispered right in his teacher's ear.
"Follow the Minister's order. Be my pride."
"But ...."
"Eh, what's his name?"
Ken was surprised to hear the Minister's voice which seemed to be on him. He looks. "I, Minister?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Ken Tachibana."
"Ken Tachibana huh?" The man touched his long beard. "good. You're coming with me."
"What?"
The minister stood up and left the place, and Ken followed the man from behind. They were followed by the royal guards. Everyone prostrated as the party came out of that place.
The short-haired man was confused. Now she must follow a man she knows nothing about. Why is this the story?
