A high-end restaurant in Naples.
The environment here is elegant and the atmosphere is comfortable. The elegantly decorated hall echoes with the wonderful music played by the violinist on the spot, and the air is filled with the fragrance of fresh flowers.
Guests sat in groups of twos and threes by the crystal-clear floor-to-ceiling windows, lazily enjoying the afternoon sunshine outside the window and talking softly over afternoon tea.
This is indeed a very stylish restaurant.
However, Li Qing ruined the “high-end” atmosphere here in a very unsightly way:
He was sitting on his seat, holding a whole piece of steak with a table knife in his left hand, and rolling a large ball of pasta with a fork in his right hand. He hesitated and complained:
“It would be nice to have a pair of chopsticks”
“”
Giorno sat next to him with a cup of black tea and looked at Li Qing with a very helpless look.
Compared with Li Qing, who has no image at all, his actions when drinking tea look like the purest British aristocrat.
“Hahaha”
Li Qing noticed Giorno’s subtle look, stopped to wipe his mouth with a napkin, and said with a smile:
“Sorry.”
“I’ve cut down several people since morning, but I haven’t even eaten a bite of food.”
“If I wasn’t really hungry, I wouldn’t be in a hurry to find a place to eat.”
“And”
“I’m naturally frugal, and it’s rare for me to open such a high-end dish.”
“If this wasn’t the money I got from killing monsters, I would be really sad.”
He told the story of his murder and robbery with a straight face, sounding as calm as if he had picked up a coin on the road.
“Okay”
Giorno had no intention of wasting time on this unimportant issue of food and appearance.
While Li Qing didn’t stuff anything more into his mouth, he hurriedly asked:
“Li Qing, you just told me the name of the boss and explained his stand-in ability.”
“So, is there any other useful information?”
“this”
Li Qing rubbed his chin and replied with some embarrassment:
“I had the ‘Blind Monk’ mode turned on the whole time. I could only perceive a vague outline and couldn’t see Diavolo’s face clearly.”
“So apart from the name and stand-in ability, I can’t provide any more information.”
“Then how are you going to find Diavolo?”
“Just knowing this, there is no way to fight back against him!”
Giorno raised the question very directly:
“Besides Diavolo, do you know any other information related to the Passion organization?”
“For example, their personnel information, organizational location, internal structure, sphere of influence, and mode of action”
“”
Li Qing suddenly fell into silence.
A shy emotion gradually appeared on his face, making Giorno vaguely aware that something was wrong:
“Hey Li Qing.”
“You don’t want to tell me that you promised me so confidently that you would defeat the Passion Organization, but now you don’t even know how to find them?”
“Well” Li Qing was a little embarrassed: “From a technical point of view, this is probably the case.”
Giorno helplessly held his forehead, his expression full of resentment.
After he was pulled onto the pirate ship, he suddenly discovered that the seemingly reliable captain actually couldn’t sail a ship at all.
“But”
Li Qing made a timely turn:
“I do have a clue!”
“Bruno Bucciarati, do you know him?”
He announced Bucciarati’s name word for word, and then looked at Giorno with an expectant look.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Giorno chewed this strange name carefully and asked strangely: “Should I know him?”
“Well, you don’t know him yet.”
Li Qing was slightly disappointed.
Having only watched two episodes of the anime, the only clue he had was the names of the two protagonists “Giorno” and “Bucciarati”.
Among them, Giorno appeared in front of him not long after he landed because of that wonderful fate.
And Bucciarati
“Where is this guy now?”
“Where should I find him?”
Li Qing murmured to himself, seeming very concerned:
Unlike Giorno, who is currently just a junior high school kid, it can be inferred from the plots reflected in those two episodes of animation that Bucciarati must have been involved in the underworld very early.
As an insider of the Passion organization, if Bucciarati can switch sides to himself and Giorno as in the original plot, he will definitely be able to bring a lot of useful internal intelligence to help them point out plans to attack Diablo. direction of counterattack.
“I don’t know why, but you look like this”
“This guy named Bucciarati should be the key to breaking the situation, right?”
Giorno carefully observed Li Qing’s subtle and complicated expression, and immediately understood in his heart that Li Qing must have some information that he was unwilling to reveal the source of.
He did not ask Li Qing where this information came from, he just asked straight to the point:
“So besides his name, do you have any more information that can help us find him?”
“Yeah” Li Qing recalled carefully and said:
“Bucciarati is a member of the passion organization.”
“It may not be accurate, but he should be a small boss with a high status in Naples now.”
“People from the passion organization?”
“So, are you trying to open a breakthrough from within the organization?”
Giorno’s frown relaxed slightly:
“In this case, if he is really a small boss with a high status in Naples, then I have a way to find him quickly.”
“Oh?” Li Qing looked forward to it: “How to find it?”
Giorno picked up the exquisite gold-painted porcelain cup and sipped the black tea carefully:
“You are a foreigner, so you may not know very well.”
“In terms of profit, the connection between ordinary people and the mafia is very close.”
“No matter what store you open or what business you do, if you don’t pay enough protection fees to the local mafia, it’s impossible for your sign to stand up on this street.”
“Correspondingly, after the mafia has collected sufficient protection fees, it must provide corresponding protection to the store in accordance with the rules of the road.”
“If someone makes trouble in the store, or if some thieves steal and rob the store, the mafia will try their best to stand up for those stores.”
“Of course, it’s not uncommon for people to be paid to do nothing but trash.”
“But as far as I know, the Mafia in Naples is still very ‘dedicated’.”
“Especially those large-scale supermarkets, shopping malls, movie theaters, and high-end restaurants. In a sense, they are the main financiers of the Mafia. If something goes wrong, the Mafia cannot sit idly by.”
“I understand.”
Li Qing understood what Giorno meant:
“As long as we randomly find a high-end store that seems to have paid a lot of protection fees to cause trouble, we can follow the routine of ‘killing the young and bringing out the old'”
“Until the forces of the passion organization in Naples come forward in person!”
“In this way, we have a high possibility of meeting Bucciarati directly.”
“Wait”
He was slightly startled, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Giorno suddenly became a little strange:
“Giorno, why do I feel that you are suggesting that I do something very uncivilized?”
“Haha.”
Giorno gave a rare smile: “I just made a suggestion. It’s up to you to decide how to operate it.”
“You just push this troublesome thing onto me?”
“It doesn’t matter, I’m quite experienced anyway.”
Li Qing withdrew his gaze with a strange expression.
Immediately afterwards, he brewed his emotions for a while
Bang!
Li Qing slammed the table with a loud sound:
“Manager! Where is the manager?”
“Call your restaurant manager over here!”
This extremely wanton roar instantly destroyed the quiet and elegant atmosphere in the restaurant.
The surrounding guests and waiters were so frightened by this situation that they did not dare to speak. Only the restaurant manager in a suit and leather tie could barely maintain his dignity.
He walked forward cautiously and said to Li Qing in a gentle and patient tone:
“Sir, do you need anything?”
“Hahahaha.”
Li Qing laughed wildly and said domineeringly: “I want to order!”
“Order?”
The restaurant manager frowned and replied carefully: “Just tell me your order directly, not so loudly.”
“That’s good!”
Li Qing slapped the table loudly again:
“Ten pounds of filet, cut into minced meat, don’t see any fat on top!”
“Don’t you want to be pickled? Let’s do it, you can kill me!”
