The Red Coffin! The Mysterious Skull Mansion - Page Five

Still smiling, Tsuyoshi notes things are getting interesting.  Tsuyoshi looks over at Daita.  Daita gets creped out by the look Tsuyoshi is giving him. 

Daita, dressed as elderly gentleman, leaves Professor Skirataki's home.  Daita walks over to the waiting car and goes into the back seat.  The chauffeur closes the door and enters the drivers seat.  The chauffeur takes off in the car.  Tsuyoshi and Peggy smile as they watch the car pull away.  Peggy comments it actually fits him pretty well. 

A cook is slicing bones apart.  The creepy cook bakes the powered bones with sulfuric acid.  He then adds in some of the special Skull X Formula.  The cook pours the liquid into a clear container.  The cook offers it to Skull Mask, to sample it's flavor.  Skull Mask agrees to sample it.  After a sip, Skull Mask tells the cook, in order to encourage separation, we must add more acid.  The cook gets quickly to work to enhance the recipe.  Cook believes the additional acid will make Skull Soup truly excellent.  Cook grins and laughs and takes a backward glance at Skull Mask.  Skull Mask watches the procedure and he likes what he sees. 

A car pulls up to a home and Daita exits the vehicle.  An older man, greets Daita, referring to Daita as the eminent genius, Professor Shirataki.  The man asks for the secret phrase and Daita responds immediately with the correct phrase.  The man directs Daita to the entrance.  After they have left, the chauffeur reveals that he is a Zolder. 

Daita follows the gentleman into the home, where a feast is laid out on a table.  Other professors are there as well.  The gentleman introduces Daita to the group of men - Professor Shirataki, Master of Rocket Engineering.  Daita immediately recognizes Professor Kirayama, Professor Kiyozaki, and Professor Ohtsuka.  The gentleman tells Daita to feel free to eat your fill.  Daita thanks him.  He walks over to the table and becomes hungry looking at all the food.  Daita grabs for some meat and it turns into a skull.  Daita yanks his hand back.
