Anime: Desolate Darkness

At the enthusiastic invitation of Iori Kazuka, Kimura Takumi filled the last seat of the four-person group.

It is worth mentioning that Iori Kazuka also deliberately sat next to Tenma Nozomi and let Kimura Takumi sit next to Mitani Kana.

"Why is Mr. Kimura in Tokyo?" Tenma hoped curiously.

After the last game, Iori Kazuka, a policeman, specifically investigated Kimura Takumi's personal information and found out that he was just an ordinary teacher in a key high school in Chiba and had no special identity.

If I have to say something, it is that I found out that the other party had previously run a listed company.

"It's nothing serious, I just came here to ask someone to do something."

"Is that so? Are you done? Do you need any help?"

"Miss Tianma, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. There's no need to beat around the bush."

No one will be nice to you for no reason. There must be a conspiracy behind it. Kimura Takumi knows this very well.

Seeing that he had said that, Iori Kazuka, who had shark teeth and a ferocious face, asked directly, "Hey, Kimura, can you lend us that Yuba?"

Yuba Li is quite famous in the female fighting world. Their Valkyrie has just started and they need the arrival of such a big shot to increase the popularity, just like the last bounty tournament.

"Yihua, don't be so bad when asking someone for a favor." Mitani Kana reminded carefully.

"Huh?" Iori Kazuka looked at her in surprise.

"Hana, are you serious? Isn't this the tone I usually use?"

Did this woman take the wrong medicine today?

Just when Iori Kazuka was puzzled, she noticed the red ears of Mitani Kana and immediately understood what was going on!

Okay, you guy...

Kimura Takumi did not notice anything unusual about the person next to him, but lowered his head to think.

After a moment, he spoke again, "As for Xiao Youba, you can ask her yourselves. I can't be responsible now."

Ever since he helped the other party win the horse race last time, Youba Li did not renew his contract the next month. Maybe he had money now and didn't care about the 2 million monthly salary.

But it's strange that even though she clearly refused to renew the contract, she still taught Nanamiya Chion and had no intention of leaving.

If she hadn't kept saying she wanted to get married every time they met, Kimura Takumi might have thought she was simply thinking about Nanamiya Chione.

"Ah? Why can't you take responsibility? Isn't she your employee?" Iori Kazuka was confused.

"This is what happened..." Kimura Takumi briefly explained what happened.

It probably means that he helped the other party guess the horse and guessed it correctly. Now the other party has become a billionaire and is independent of him.

"I remember that the student named Hongo Jinai was one of yours, right? She went to the racecourse with us. Didn't she tell you about the situation?"

Hearing this, Iori Kazuka and Mitani Kana looked at Hongo Kina's supervisor, Tenma Nozomi.

Tenma Hope turned away with an embarrassed look on her face. She really couldn't stand the strong gazes from the two of them.

"Kina didn't say..." In order to ease the strange atmosphere at the moment, she quickly thought of a way to change the subject, "By the way, is Mr. Kimura so lucky? He helped player Yuba earn hundreds of millions in one go."

"Yes!" Iori Kazuka suddenly realized, that's several hundred million!

Kimura Takumi said it so easily that she almost treated this large sum of money as small change.

"I used to think there was some shady stuff going on with horse racing, but I didn't expect it to really just depend on luck!"

She said excitedly.

"You can't say that. There must be something fishy going on. But this time it was probably just an accident. It was just luck."

Kimura Takumi said modestly.

It is impossible to say that there is no shady dealings in anything related to gambling.

The four of them chatted intermittently, and before they knew it, more than an hour had passed.

Looking at the pile of empty bowls on the table that was higher than the seats they were sitting on, Tianma Hope and the other two were shocked.

Kimura Takumi, who caused this phenomenon, was still eating the ramen that had just been served with relish.

"Are you a reincarnated starving ghost?" Iori Kazuka complained subconsciously.

My goodness, this is more than 20 bowls, and you are still eating? Aren’t you afraid of being stuffed to death?

"Yihua! Mr. Kimura is tall, so it's normal for him to eat more, right?" Mitani Kana hurriedly said to him.

Iori Kazuka pointed at the pile of empty bowls and looked at her with a dull expression, as if asking: You call this a little more?

Tianma Xiang felt that this was still within an acceptable range. After all, she had been in the fighting industry for many years and had seen many strong players who all had appetites far beyond that of ordinary people.

"By the way, Mr. Kimura, I heard from player Yuba that you are a good fighter. How good are you exactly? Could you tell us?" Tenma Xiwang suddenly remembered this.

As far as they know about Kimura Takumi's record, the only thing he did was to cause a stir in the [Tragic Tooth Group] with a crushing attitude, and then walk out of it safely.

Kimura Takumi drank the bowl of ramen and the soup in one gulp, stacked the new empty bowl on top of the pile of empty bowls, and then said slowly: "I heard from Xiao Youba that the top level in the fighting world is called [Clouds], and there are organizations like [Kengankai] and [Purgatory] on the list, right?"

"That's true." Although Tianma Xiwang didn't understand why the other party said this, he still answered honestly.

"Then I should be at the level of the champions of [Kengankai] and [Purgatory]."

After all, there is no higher level competition anymore...

“Are you kidding me?!”

"Are you out of your mind?!"

Neither Tenma Hope nor Iori Kazuka wanted to believe him.

The reason why Tianma Hope found it hard to accept was because she had seen the strength of players of that level before. They were undoubtedly monsters. Just looking at them from afar was terrifying. She couldn't imagine that the person in front of her could compete with them.

However, Kazuka Iori simply thought that Kimura Takumi was bragging. She didn't believe that a high school teacher could be so outrageous.

Doubts and dissatisfaction surged in the hearts of the two people at the same time. After looking at each other, they asked in unison:

"Why do you say that?"

"It's really hard to be convincing just by talking, but I'm just answering your question. As for whether you believe it or not, it's up to you to judge for yourself.

Of course, if you have the ability, you can call the champion over there. I don't mind playing with him at all." Kimura Takumi said these extremely arrogant words in a calm tone as if it had nothing to do with him.

"Well...well, I believe Mr. Kimura." Mitani Kana slowly raised her right hand and murmured in a voice not much louder than the hum of a mosquito.

No way, did he give you some kind of magic potion? Do you believe everything he says?

Seeing her best friend doing such a stupid thing, Iori Kazuka was about to collapse. She turned her head and covered her face, unable to bear to watch any longer.

"It's definitely impossible to invite a champion of the [Cloud] level, but I do have a candidate who is barely suitable." Tianma Xiwang said thoughtfully while touching his chin.
