Chapter 52: Fight
Bucciarati was in doubt.
Because just when he and his companions drove into the city of Naples and were about to track down Li Qing, Li Qing showed up on his own initiative.
He showed up in a high-end restaurant that was protected by the Passion organization in a very high-profile manner. Not only did he make a scene for no apparent reason, he also yelled at the restaurant manager to call out all the protective umbrellas behind them.
"What do you think?"
"Why would Li Qing take the initiative to show up at this time?"
Bucciarati frowned and turned from the passenger seat to ask his companions for their opinions.
"Uh..." Narancia scratched his head and tried hard to think, but after a long time he still couldn't come up with any valuable ideas.
Apache sat silently beside the unconscious Mista. He seemed to be distracted and did not respond in time.
It was Fugo who gave a useful inference:
"This kind of behavior of exposing one's whereabouts is really unreasonable..."
"I guess he probably knows too little about our passion organization, so he has no idea how to fight back. That's why he uses such an exaggerated and dangerous method to lure out members of our organization and open a breakthrough to fight back."
"It's a good thing that the other party doesn't have enough intelligence, but, from another perspective..."
Fugo, a 14-year-old illegal driver, said seriously while driving:
"A guy who dares to do such a thing must be very confident in his own abilities, right?"
"That's right."
Bucciarati nodded, his voice very serious:
"This must be a tough opponent."
"And... in order to help us complete the mission, the boss just asked Mr. Polpo to tell us about the stand ability of Lee Sin, but..."
“That made me care even more.”
"This?" Fugo heard the hidden meaning in Bucciarati's words.
His expression suddenly became extremely surprised:
" The urgent order to hunt down Li Qing was issued by the boss himself, which was unusual. He even offered the 'cadre throne' as a reward for the first time."
"And the boss himself knows about Lee Sin's Stand ability, which means..."
"That Li Qing is very likely to have fought with that adult, and he is still alive today?!"
"In that case, doesn't that mean he has the boss's favor..."
"That's enough!"
"Don't talk about things you shouldn't know."
Bukarati promptly stopped Fugo's dangerous words:
"We followed the other party's traces all the way here. The restaurant is not far from here. If we drive faster, we will meet Li Qing in a few minutes."
“So, I hope you can be mentally prepared…”
He was trying to persuade his companions with a serious tone, and at the same time, he was also hardening his own heart:
"No matter who that Li Qing is or what he has done, he is now our enemy and a target we must kill."
"And Li Qing was able to survive until now after angering the boss. His strength is definitely not weak."
"If everyone doesn't fight with all their might with the goal of 'killing the opponent', we might be the ones to die!"
Bucciarati was a good man, but he also killed good people.
If he was too soft-hearted to take action when he met a good person, then he, who had been in the underworld since the age of 12, should have died in the "house cleaning" within the organization long ago.
"clear!"
Narancia and Fuge nodded in unison, indicating that they would never be soft-hearted.
Abbazi also nodded in agreement, but he quickly asked a small question.
"What should we do with this kid?" he asked, pointing at Mista who was unconscious on the side.
"Um…"
Bucciarati thought about it for a moment.
He brought Mista on board for selfish reasons.
The character, qualities, and Stand abilities that Mista displayed during that heroic act were all very much to his liking.
Although the two sides are now standing on opposite sides by accident, Bucciarati still has the idea of communicating with Mista afterwards, absorbing Mista into the team and training him as a companion.
After all, there are very few Stand users who possess such integrity and share the same values as him.
If he wants to be a good guardian of Naples in the future and realize his dream of "changing the mafia from within the mafia", he will need many like-minded and capable companions to rely on.
Then Bucciarati replied:
"Li Qing has already taken the initiative to jump out. We still have to seize the opportunity and put the mission first."
"There's no hospital nearby... Let's put him in the car to rest. I'll talk to him after the battle is over."
※※※
Li Qing really made a big fuss in the store.
He first rudely asked the restaurant manager to cut ten pounds of fillet, and the restaurant manager reluctantly agreed.
Then he changed his mind and asked the restaurant manager to cut ten pounds of T-bones, and the restaurant manager reluctantly agreed.
In the end, when Li Qing forced the restaurant manager to change his mind and ask him to cut ten pounds of beef tripe, the restaurant manager, who had never seen beef tripe in his life, finally couldn't stand it anymore and called the security guard.
Then, the situation began to turn violent...
Li Qing first beat the security guards who stepped forward to stop him, leaving them with black and blue faces. Then he grabbed the collar of the restaurant manager without any hesitation and forced him to call the mafia for help.
final…
Guests, chefs, waiters, and the unlucky restaurant manager, all the outsiders in the store fled in panic under Li Qing's deliberate drive.
This very stylish high-end restaurant was soon deserted and almost deserted because of his mess.
In this way, Li Qing and Giorno completely occupied the restaurant.
Five minutes later, it was 15:48.
"No one has come yet?" Li Qing sat at the dining table, bored and tasting the free wine he had found in the store, which was obviously very valuable.
"The call was made just a few minutes ago. The Mafia is not that efficient yet."
"Besides, even if someone comes, it may not be Bucciarati."
Giorno answered casually.
As he said this, he lowered his head and concentrated on prying open the small safe in front of the counter - the store was smashed anyway, so it wouldn't be a big deal to take some pocket money.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of a car braking outside the door.
From the harsh friction sound, it can be heard that the car is driving very fast, coming in a hurry, and is obviously heading here.
"Is it really coming so soon?"
Giorno was slightly surprised. This was completely different from the Mafia he knew before:
"How could it be so fast... Are those mafia just nearby? No..."
"Li Qing, be careful!"
He warned Li Qing with a serious look:
"The Mafia has never been so proactive in dealing with this kind of low-level vandalism."
"The other party came so quickly, the most likely possibility is... they are here to hunt you down!"
"clear."
Li Qing nodded, then carefully walked out of the door with Giorno and observed the uninvited guest who appeared in a high-profile manner:
He was a blond boy with a somewhat childish face.
He carefully parked the car far away in a safe area several dozen meters away, then got out of the car alone and walked slowly towards the restaurant door.
As they got closer, Li Qing and Giorno could see more clearly the bright, bold green outfit on the blond boy:
This dress is form-fitting and sexy, with not only a bold deep V cut at the abdomen, but also many large hollow holes on the sleeves, shoulders and trouser legs.
It shows off the beautiful body of its wearer all the time.
Unfortunately, the person wearing it now is a man.
"Is that Bucciarati?" Giorno asked.
"No." Li Qing shook his head.
Although I have never seen the real person, Bucciarati's appearance in the animation is still easy to recognize.
"However, this boy is most likely a Stand user."
Li Qing said with certainty.
He sensed the unique fashion sense of a Stand user from the other person's flashy clothing.
"Are you Li Qing?"
The blond boy stood firm and faced Li Qing and Giorno across the street.
"That's right." Li Qing answered frankly: "Who are you?"
"Here to kill you," the blond boy said with pretended pride.
"Are you here alone?" Li Qing frowned.
"If I want to kill you, I can do it alone."
The blond boy replied arrogantly.
Then, in front of Li Qing and Giorno, he shouted arrogantly:
"Go ahead, Aerosmith!"
