Later, under her leadership, the family joined forces with politicians to establish the FBI, discussed major plans with many century-old families, reached a secret agreement, and intervened in a war.

Sakaki Makoto suddenly understood.
He had always been puzzled. The Hughes family, which established the FBI at the time and could have easily taken the lead among the major American families, suddenly became humble and retreated behind the scenes.
emotion...
This is because a huge change occurred within the Hughes family.
Overnight, Amanda Hughes' father, uncle, eldest uncle and other people who were responsible for controlling the power of the family fell ill and died, as if they had received retribution.
At this point, the younger generation of the family had not yet grown up, and Amanda Hughes, who was unable to support the family alone, came up with an idea and established the FBI. This gave her the confidence to challenge other century-old families and stabilize the precarious situation.
She is truly a heroine.
It was not until the end of a certain war that Amanda Hughes, the head of the Hughes family at the time, who was in her 40s, took a plane and went to Japan in person in order to expand the Japanese market.
To protect her personal safety, the FBI also sent top agent John Stelling.
At the same time, there are US troops stationed in Japan to provide escort.
After a while...
Amanda Hughes' personal safety was certainly not a problem, and no one dared to attack her.
Sure enough, John Sterling is an FBI agent...
Makoto Sakaki had expected this result.
He then looked down:
Arriving in Japan on the first day of the new year, Amanda Hughes experienced the local customs and practices for a few days and realized that if she wanted to establish an industry on this land, she would need the support of the locals.
Due to cultural influence, Japanese people are very xenophobic.
After understanding this...
Amanda Hughes accepted the invitation of the Karasuma family and went to the Twilight Annex in Nagano Prefecture under the protection of the army.
There, she met Karasuma Renya, who was so old that he had difficulty getting out of bed and walking.
Even though the United States was the victorious party at the time, Amanda Hughes did not act arrogantly. Instead, she adapted to the local customs, learned Japanese etiquette, and met the wealthy man Karasuma Renya.
The conversation went very pleasantly, but few people know the specific content. The biography only mentioned that Karasuma Renye invited Amanda Hughes to stay for a few days, and after Amanda Hughes agreed, he proposed a plan for the two countries to move forward together.
To be honest, the United States at that time did not have a good attitude towards Japan. Who caused the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor?
At first, Amanda Hughes wanted to refuse, but then she thought that the international situation was serious, the United States had not yet become the only superpower, and it was not appropriate to create enemies.
Amanda Hughes, who has the mind of a businessman and a politician, knows that there are no eternal enemies in the world, only immediate interests. She did not refuse or agree at the first time, but instead performed Tai Chi.
Knowing that he had not much time left, Karasuma Renya displayed the demeanor of an upper-class person and immediately ordered the servants to receive Amanda Hughes with the highest standards.
So far....
Amanda Hughes had not yet realized that she was falling into the other party's trap step by step.
Sakaki Makoto knew what happened next, but only from the perspective of a fortress researcher.
After visiting the fortress built under the Dusk Annex, Amanda Hughes was very satisfied and believed that the Karasuma family was indeed powerful and ambitious.
The most irresistible thing is...
Based on the post-war situation, Karasuma Renya put forward his own set of views.
'The war is not over yet, we have failed, and there is a brown bear waiting for you.'
"On the battlefield, the indispensable things are healing medicines, such as morphine, penicillin, alcohol, sulfa powder, etc."
'For this reason, stockpiling medicine is of paramount importance, especially for U.S. soldiers.'
"I suggest setting up a pharmaceutical factory in Japan to produce drugs and store them locally. This way, if a war breaks out, the US military can save a lot of resources on transportation."
"Of course, we also want to receive compensation. The United States wants to help Japan rebuild its homeland. This is the condition."
Amanda Hughes couldn't think of a reason to refuse.
You should know...
At that time, the Hughes family's main business was pharmaceuticals.
They have the most advanced pharmaceutical machines and technologies in the world, but it is still difficult to supply the army's consumption.
That's an astronomical figure!
War is a waste of money!
If you don't believe me, look at Japan. A war that involved the whole nation's efforts lasted only a few years, and the country has become devastated and the people are living in misery.
Even though the United States is much larger in size, how long can it last under the bloody millstone of war?
As the saying goes: A single cannon shot is worth a ton of gold.
An air-to-air missile, no matter whether it can hit a person or not, as long as it is fired, it means that hundreds of thousands of meters away have disappeared.
How many missiles does a war consume?
Rather than calling it a war, it is more like a competition of financial power among countries.
As expected, Amanda Hughes agreed to Karasuma Renye's proposal.
The Hughes family and the Karasuma family reached a cooperation.
The Hughes family sent top researchers to Japan and agreed to accept students from Japan to attend prestigious universities.
With this incident...
The Karasuma family formed a new company called:
Baijiu Pharmaceuticals.
The Karasuma family is very tolerant. Regardless of their background, they allow all students with excellent academic performance to study in the United States and provide them with a sum of money every year, which is enough for them to have food and clothing.
As time goes by...
The expected war never came. Instead, Baijiu Pharmaceutical grew bigger and bigger, and more and more elites returned to Japan.
Seeing this, Makoto Sakaki put down the biography.
That's basically the end of the story about Amanda Hughes.
The rest is irrelevant stuff.
I have to say...
Karasuma Renya's mind can be described as shrewd and cunning.
No matter how smart Amanda Hughes was, she could never have imagined that Karasuma Renya actually wanted to study drugs that could make people immortal and resurrect the dead!
Only a madman would do this!
It’s not difficult to guess why the Black Organization wants to kill Amanda Hughes.
It must have been the organization's research that aroused her suspicion, so she joined forces with the FBI to investigate the Karasuma family and Hakubato Pharmaceutical.
Coincidentally...
The time span is exactly 17 years ago.
The fire at the institute, the cause of Amanda Hughes' death, the organization of the riot...
Is there any connection?
“I always feel…”
Sakaki Makoto muttered:
"There's still some clue missing..."
"ah?"
Kidd, who was observing outside the door, turned around:
"What did you say?"
"It's okay, time to go."
Sakaki Makoto stood up from behind the pile of documents and brushed off the dust on his skirt.
Having found many clues, Makoto Sakaki was very satisfied.
He didn't expect to uncover the Black Organization's conspiracy in one fell swoop, otherwise wouldn't it be too easy?
Besides...
If the Hughes family really had records about the APTX plan, why would they have sat idly by until now?
