Chapter 8
Where's Your Husband, You Ask Me? (3/5)

“What are you two doing at the door, dawdling around like that?” Seeing Hori and Nora, Shinjo couldn't help but say.

And Captain Jujo and Lina also looked over.

“Uh... we're coming.” Hori and Nora quickly replied.

They exchanged glances and secretly groaned, taking the files and walking closer.

They suddenly realized they had stumbled upon a tremendous secret.

The Captain had gotten married without making a sound!

When they saw the information on the file, they couldn't believe their eyes in the archives. It wasn't until they had triple-checked that they confirmed the accuracy of the information.

After all, the marriage certificate photo on the file was impossible to fake, and the Captain was even wearing her Victory team uniform in it.

“Captain, this is the information on the 'Daoist' Jiang.” Hori and Nora looked at Jujo with a strange expression, carefully handing her the file separately.

“Hmm?” Although Jujo noticed some strangeness in the two members of her team, she didn't probe further, thinking there was something unusual about the information.

Until she saw the picture and name on the file...

“It’s him!” Jujo exclaimed with wide eyes.

The file read: Jiang He, a Taoist master from neighboring Longguo, who had published several proposals with some results, though they were not recognized by the world.

He frequently traveled to ancient places with mysterious signs, known as Daoist Jiang He. He is currently married, and his wife is... Jujo.

There was even a marriage certificate photo next to it, which was none other than her!

“.....” Jujo couldn't help but feel her face heat up.

She suddenly understood why her two team members were looking at her with strange expressions.

No wonder when she heard the "mysterious young man's" voice at the pyramid, she felt a vague sense of familiarity.

She hadn't expected that he was actually a Taoist master...

“Captain, do you know this Daoist Jiang?” Seeing how even the usually composed Captain Jujo exclaimed, Lina couldn't help but ask.

“Well, I guess... I do.” Jujo nodded, unsure of how to answer. It felt awkward saying her husband was the person she’d been looking for.

And although he was her husband, if she had to say how familiar she was with him, her understanding of Jiang He was limited to the fact that her mother had been very fond of him and some related information.

Especially, she remembered that her mother had told her that Jiang He was a distant relative’s child...

Because Japan didn’t have ID cards, people could use insurance certificates as ID. So when her mother took out insurance for Jiang He, Jujo didn't suspect anything.

But now it seemed she had been tricked by her mother's kind lie... He wasn't a distant relative at all.

Her thoughts flashed through her mind, and Jujo shook her head, dismissing these now irrelevant thoughts.

“So where is this Daoist Jiang now? We need to find him as soon as possible.” Daigo asked Jujo, vaguely noticing the name Jiang He on the file.

He had a lot of questions about the giant that he wanted to ask this Daoist Jiang.

“He’s...” Jujo froze. She suddenly realized she didn’t know where Jiang He was.

She didn’t even have his contact information. Before, she and Jiang He had communicated using the hospital phone number where her mother was staying.

Jujo’s face started burning. To lose her husband on their first day of marriage was a little embarrassing.

Facing Daigo’s question, she coughed and looked at Hori and Nora, “The file doesn’t have an address. Immediately use the satellite system to find Dr. Jiang He.”

“.....” Hori and Nora looked at Jujo in disbelief.

You’re asking us about your husband’s whereabouts?

And you’re even using the satellite system to look for him...

Who am I?

Where am I?

Did I just hallucinate?

After a series of existential questions, realizing that Jujo wasn’t joking, Nora and Hori quickly used the satellite system to find Jiang He.

As the vice captain and commander, Zongfang looked at Hori and Nora, then at Jujo, who seemed to be clutching her face in headache, and a thoughtful look crossed his face.

.........

Meanwhile, in a coffee shop.

Jiang He sat by the window, leisurely sipping his coffee and exhaling.

Although he was broke before, that didn't stop him from robbing the rich and helping the poor. Using Saiga’s Ultra Power, he "borrowed" two bills from a group of criminals in the city to buy coffee.

If those criminals hadn't been so poor, he would have been at a sake bar right now.

This made Jiang He sigh, "If those people had just had more money..."

“Please bring me three coffees, to the window side.”

At that moment, a familiar voice rang out from nearby, speaking to the waiter, followed by slow footsteps approaching his direction.

“Hmm?” Hearing the familiar voice, Jiang He looked up and saw three familiar figures.

Zongfang, Hori, and... his cheap wife, Jujo!
