Chapter 333
Edited by Aelryinth
On the twenty-first of August, year thirty-six of the new age, 12:18 PM…
Zhang Che walked out of the Rejing airport, observing the ridiculously young city . The current Rejing was no longer the Rejing of the past .
During the first arrival of the beast swarm, a total of eight spatial gateways had appeared in the surroundings of Rejing in one go . The exotic beasts had swarmed out from them endlessly, and had land and water-type exotic beasts among them .
Rejing was quickly met with tragedy .
A few years later, after surviving through the first beast swarm with much difficulty, the Japanese citizens discovered that Rejing was nothing but ruins . Almost all the buildings were destroyed by the powerful exotic beasts, as if a super intense modern warfare had occurred here . Everything before their eyes was ruined .
It had to be said that the Japanese were truly the most powerful ethnic group in certain aspects .
After the first beast swarm, they pumped in enormous amounts of labor and resources to rebuild Rejing from scratch . They also constructed countless defensive measures around the eight spatial gateways .
Afterwards, although the second and third beast swarms arrived with much larger and stronger numbers, the Japanese had miraculously defended their new Rejing, shocking the whole world .
A few decades had passed since then, the new Rejing had fully taken shape and no longer had a trace of the ruins from the past .
Someone with no knowledge of the history of this place could never imagine that this city was a purgatory-like ruin just thirty years ago .
Although Zhang Che couldn’t see the full appearance of Rejing from where he stood, he could still feel the prosperity and congestion when he looked over it . Despite only taking in a tiny fraction of the city, he could see a glimpse of how Rejing had become the busiest city in Japan once more .
“I wonder if the largest industry of Rejing exists in this world, too? What a pity; if this was in my original world, I would really want to go meet those respectable life coaches and see what their real lives are like . ”
Wasn’t the reason why Rejing was called that because of those admirable life coaches? {TLN: Rejing translates to hot capital . }
If their traces were gone, why even call it Rejing? They might as well call it Lengjing . {TLN: Lengjing translates to cold capital . }
In the end, just as he walked out of the airport, he saw a long line of taxis parked on both sides of the road… Of course, that wasn’t the main point . The main thing was that when they saw the crowd swarming out from the airport exit, the taxi doors opened almost simultaneously, and every driver was either a young or mature women .
Not only that, those women all had something in common despite their age differences . Every one of them was beautiful .
Even their figures were something to be proud of, although their strong points differed .
Zhang Che was stunned . Something seemed amiss…
Before he could react to any of this, the taxi drivers rushed up to them . A mature, beautiful woman and a young pretty woman both ran up to Zhang Che at the same up, asking in English with smiles on their faces, “Mister, may I know where you’re headed to? I’ll be very happy to be of service to you . ”
Zhang Che felt a little dizzy from all this . He understood these simple English sentences, but he couldn’t answer them . In the end, he asked in his unfamiliar Japanese, “Can you send me to the Rejing city area?”
Realizing Zhang Che understood Japanese, the two women’s eyes shone even brighter . They immediately gave Zhang Che a positive answer . Afterwards, each of them hugged an arm and pulled him towards the row of taxis were .
-Since when are the Japanese so hospitable? Could their taxi rides be free, even?-

Zhang Che was a little dumbfounded . He turned his head to look around subconsciously . In the end, he realized the group of women rushing up earlier each had their own harvests . Some of the guests welcomed by them so passionately were as dumbfounded as Zhang Che, but a larger portion of them had smiles on their faces, seemingly used to this strange sight .
Well, this was treatment only available to men .
The women that came out from the airport were rarely approached . The female drivers were basically ignoring them .
Of course, the female travellers were similarly ignoring the female drivers . They continued walking a short distance and walked towards a row of buses further down .
Zhang Che was pulled to the row of taxis by the two women just like that . After a short discussion between the two, they quickly came to an agreement and pushed Zhang Che into the car forcibly . The younger of the two drove, while the mature woman sat in the back, beside Zhang Che .
“Mister, have you booked your hotel room? If not, we have better recommendations . ”
From the moment she got into the car, the mature woman’s gaze towards Zhang Che became a little different, as if she was looking at a pile of cash . Her eyes were almost dazzling with golden light .
Did he book a hotel room?
That was impossible . Zhang Che’s trip to Japan wasn’t for vacation . Why would he reserve a hotel room? Perhaps he would even need to sleep outside, with the skies as his blanket and the earth as his bed .
“I’m sorry, I already reserved one . ”
Zhang Che more or less understood these female driver’s side job . However, he wasn’t interested at all, and rejected her decisively .

The mature woman wasn’t dejected at all . Her eyes rolled around and continued, “Then do you need any special services? We don’t charge high prices . ”
-Ugh, they’re so direct?-
Zhang Che finally witnessed the “hospitality” of the Japanese women first-hand . However, he was still not interested, and shook his head firmly .
-Ai, you’re not Aoi-sensei, Hatano-sensei, or Ueharsensei…-
On that note, even if Aoi-sensei or the other life coaches were here sending Zhang Che such invitations, he wouldn’t agree .
Admiring their work was one thing, but Zhang Che would never get into a relationship with people in such professions .
Well, the thing was, he was mysophobic . {TLN: FYI, people in that profession, both men and women, do check-ups regularly . }
The taxi suddenly slowed down and stopped at the roadside . The mature woman and the young woman got out of the car at the same time and swapped places .
Zhang Che was thoroughly speechless . Their professionalism was truly admirable!
As such, he could only put on a cold face and said evenly, “Please send me to Rejing’s city district . I don’t need any other services . Thank you . ”
“Ugh, alright, Mister . ”

Going forward, the two women became honest as could be . They sent Zhang Che to Rejing’s city district and quickly drove off after receiving the fare for the ride, not reluctant to leave at all .
Well, from the time when their faces turned cold, Zhang Che could guess what they were thinking . They had failed to close a deal and felt that the trip was wasted, something like that .
He thought to himself, -If I really agreed to your suggestions, I would be the one losing big!-
Being on the streets of the unfamiliar Rejing, their unfamiliar language was being spoken all around him, giving Zhang Che a very peculiar feeling .
He didn’t go to book a hotel room . Instead, he walked around the streets casually .
The time now was 1 PM; Zhang Che was starving . He needed to find a place to have a good meal .
Of course, given his appetite, it was impossible for him to enter a restaurant . That scene would be too frightening to the on-lookers .
The only feasible way was for him to look for a secluded corner and take out the prepared food from his spatial storage to eat . He wouldn’t scare anyone that way .
-First I’ll fill my stomach, then start looking for information on the Miyazaki Clan . - Thinking of that, Zhang Che made turn after turn and walked into a secluded alley .
