"The underworld is all about power, money and women. No matter which one it is, you have to be alive to enjoy it."
The voice on the other end of the intercom was quite calm, almost as if it was talking about this morning's weather, but it made the eye-patch man shiver all over.
"Once they lose their lives, everything they pursue will be in vain. It is enough for them to understand this."
"you..."
Hearing this, the eyepatch man clenched his fists in anger.
"Don't underestimate the underworld!!"
"Look down on me? Aren't the mafia people bullying the weak and fearing the strong?"
However, in response to the eyepatch man's roar, the voice on the other end of the intercom was filled with a hint of sneer.
"As long as enough money is given, I will kill the President of the United States or the Prime Minister of Japan, because is equal in the face of death. But what about the mafia? Aren't they just a bunch of people who only dare to act arrogantly in front of those weaker than themselves, and act like scabby dogs when they meet a strong person? Even the Tojo Clan is at best just a thug under the politicians. Think carefully about your lifestyle. It's amazing that you are angry about what happened to Miss Makimura. Isn't this your daily work as a mafia member?"
"I..."
Faced with the ridicule coming from the intercom, the man with the eyepatch was speechless for a moment.
"Where do you think the money comes from to keep such a big organization like the East City Society running? Those team leaders drive luxury cars and spend a lot of money. Do they earn it themselves? No way, isn't the money you spend extorted from ordinary people? Collecting protection fees, lending at high interest rates, arresting and forcing people who can't pay back, seizing their land, forcing girls to sell their bodies and make movies... You don't really think that what you did is any better than persecuting Miss Makimura Minoru. What's wrong? Because you know Miss Makimura Minoru, so you are angry about her experience. But other girls being coerced by the East City Society have nothing to do with you, right?"
“Woo…”
The man with the eyepatch clenched his teeth and said nothing, but the voice on the other end of the intercom continued.
"In my opinion, the mafia are all the same. They bully the weak and fear the strong. They suck the blood of ordinary people, show off their power, and take advantage of others. The loyalty, decisiveness, and explanations you talk about with great relish are just names you made up to whitewash your crimes. What about sticking your back to your brothers, what about loyalty to the organization... Haha, no matter how nice the words sound, they are just criminal activities."
"Shut up you bastard!"
Clenching his fists, the man with the eyepatch roared and wanted to hit him.
"Oh, go ahead. I'm just a walkie-talkie anyway."
"You......!!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, Mr. Li quickly stepped forward.
"What are you going to do?"
"My suggestion is that you leave Osaka for the time being and go to a remote place in the countryside to hide for a while. Of course, if you have time, you can also investigate why Miss Makimura Minoru is being hunted by the underworld, and then..."
"Then?"
"Just wait and watch the news."
"……???"
Although they didn't know what this guy was going to do, the eyepatch man and Mr. Li didn't have a good solution. They definitely couldn't stay in Osaka.
It was not an easy task to travel from Osaka to Hokkaido, especially to avoid the other party's eyes and ears. Although they were followed by gangsters, Fang Zheng dealt with them silently. Finally, they arrived in Hokkaido and settled down in a remote village.
Then, the three of them began to wait for the big news that Fang Zheng had mentioned. As a result... a week later, the first thing they saw in the newspaper was the obituary of the highest authority in the Tojo Clan, the second-generation deputy, Niihara Takashi, who had died unexpectedly...
They were all shocked to see the news, but they didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
Three days later, at the Dongcheng Society headquarters.
Under the dark clouds, luxury cars parked in the parking lot of the Tojo Clan's headquarters. Looking around, there were men in black suits everywhere. They wore mourning badges and had serious and gloomy faces. This was no wonder. Although he was the second-generation acting leader, Niihara Takashi was the highest authority in the Tojo Clan. go next.
What is even more worrying is that the third-generation president has not yet been appointed, and with the death of Niihara Takashi, there will inevitably be a bloody storm surrounding the position of president.
It is precisely because of this that all the leaders of the Tojo Clan have gathered together. In addition to attending the funeral, they are probably also competing for the position of the next third-generation president.
"That's about it..."
On top of a tall building in the distance, Fang Zheng stood there, holding a telescope, staring at the men walking into the East City Association headquarters. The funeral was about to begin, which meant that all the East City Association cadres were already in place, so what was next...
"Let's set off a gorgeous firework."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng turned around and walked towards the door to the rooftop. At the same time, he took out a remote control and pressed it gently.
"boom--!!!"
The next moment, accompanied by a violent explosion, the earth shook and black smoke rose into the sky. At the same time, accompanied by a "crackling" sound, fireworks flew into the air and bloomed in front of the black smoke, forming an extremely strange and beautiful picture.
The explosion that occurred in the Tojo Clan instantly became a hot topic across the country. After all, the Tojo Clan was the largest gang organization in Eastern Japan. Its headquarters was attacked and all the top leaders were killed. This meant that the largest gang organization in Eastern Japan with 25,000 members had completely collapsed.
This is naturally a lot of pressure for the police.
“This is really tragic.”
Standing in front of the ruins, looking at the traces of the explosion in front of him, Ida Makoto of the Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Division 1 muttered to himself. It's no wonder he said that, because the main building of the entire Tojo Clan had been blown to ashes, leaving only a huge deep pit. If you didn't know, you would think it was bombed during the war.
But in fact it's pretty much the same.
Because according to the results of the Metropolitan Police Department's search and investigation, the explosion was caused by an American air-to-ground missile, which belonged to the US military stationed in Japan. Not long ago, the warhead disappeared for unknown reasons, but although the US military stationed in Japan conducted an investigation, it did not tell the Japanese police about it.
It now seems obvious that the murderer stole the warhead of the air-to-ground missile from the US military base in Japan, then modified it, and finally detonated it when the top leaders of the Dongcheng Society came here to mourn, sending all the top leaders of the Dongcheng Society to death.
This case involved US troops stationed in Japan, the largest gang group in eastern Japan, and a rare explosion case - if the other party had not blown up the gang headquarters, it could have been defined as a terrorist attack.
Even so, this is a rare major case for Japan, and the investigation by the public security department, the Metropolitan Police Department and the US military stationed in Japan has never stopped. However, although they have made great efforts to investigate, the whole case is still a mystery in the end, and they can't even find out who the criminal is. Finally, after a few years, this case was left unsolved as an unsolved case, and only a few unlucky people who neglected their duties and did not take good care of the warhead were arrested.
Of course, let's not talk about what happened a few years later, and let's go back to the time after the explosion. The news of the attack on the East City Club headquarters shocked the whole country, and the eyepatch man and Mr. Li also heard about it. To be honest, when they saw the TV screen showing the East City Club headquarters being bombed into ruins, they were both stunned.
At the same time, the voice coming from the intercom was still so calm.
"That way, my work is almost done."
"Did...did you do this?"
The eyepatch man swallowed his saliva and stared at the intercom next to him with a somewhat horrified look. He finally understood now that this guy was not someone that ordinary people could think of. At the beginning, when he said he wanted to destroy the East City Society, the eyepatch man thought it was just a joke. After all, in his opinion as a former gangster, the East City Society was in its heyday and was almost invincible. It was the king of the gangsters.
However, this scene now completely woke him up - it was obvious that in the eyes of this god of death, the Dongcheng Society was not worth mentioning at all.
No, let alone the Dongcheng Clan, he even dared to provoke the US troops stationed in Japan. Thinking back to what they said before, they dared to kill the US President and the Japanese Prime Minister if they paid enough money...
The eyepatch man closed his mouth silently.
At this moment, he deeply understood that he and the other party were not on the same level at all.
"Next, I have one last favor to ask of you..."
And at this moment, Mr. Li spoke.
"What is it? I won't do anything that's too troublesome, okay?"
"In fact, we have also investigated the reason why Shimo was attacked."
During the time when Fang Zheng was taking action, Mr. Li was not idle either. He contacted people in Asia Street in Kamurocho and found out the whole story of the attack on Makimura Minoru.
It turns out that Kamurocho is about to carry out the 21st century urban development plan, and for this purpose the entire land will of course be redeveloped. Just like many stubborn residents in China who, upon hearing that their homes are going to be demolished, start desperately building illegal buildings to increase their area, the Tojo Clan, after getting the news, also began to acquire a large number of stores and land in Kamurocho. In this way, when the development plan is implemented, the Tojo Clan, which actually controls the land, will also gain enormous money and power.
So what does all this have to do with Makimura Minoru?
It turns out that Makimura Minoru's grandfather also owned the land in Kamurocho. Later, he distributed the land to his children and grandchildren. No one knows what the grandfather was thinking, but in short, without Makimura Minoru's own knowledge, she became the owner of one of the flats of land.
However, that piece of land is right in the center of the bustling area of Kamurocho.
This is very troublesome.
It's like if you want to build a building there, but it's stuck because of a piece of land. That's how uncomfortable it would be. So the East City Club hopes to find the owner of this piece of land and buy it. There is even a saying inside that whoever can get this piece of land first can become the next president of the East City Club.
This is also the reason why the Dongcheng Society would use such unscrupulous means to track down and capture Mucun Shi.
After learning the whole story, Mucunshi was also quite angry. She had never thought that she was being hunted down because of something she didn't even know about. Of course, Mucunshi had no attachment to the land and wanted to just hand it over. But unfortunately - the Dongcheng Club had been completely blown up by Fang Zheng.
Fortunately, it was not only the Tojo Clan that was buying up the land in Kamurocho. A real estate company called "Rika Real Estate" was also active in the process and was fighting against the Tojo Clan. Now that the Tojo Clan was gone, Rika Real Estate immediately took action and began to buy up the real estate held by the Tojo Clan. Since the president of the company had a connection with the forces of Asia Street, after the two sides contacted each other, the president of Rika Real Estate said that he could protect Makimura Minoru and buy up the land. In this way, Makimura Minoru could completely get out of this dangerous business and live an ordinary life.
In order to express his sincerity, the boss of Ritsuka Real Estate also sent his confidant to meet Makimura Minoru.
"Hello, I'm Oda."
When Mr. Li and the masked man brought Makimura Minoru to Tokyo, a man in a suit who looked like a social person appeared in front of them. He looked at the three of them with a smile on his face.
“I’m here to greet Miss Makimura Minoru on the orders of the president.
"Why?!"
However, when he heard the voice of the man named Oda, Makimura Minoru trembled and hid behind the eyepatch man.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Looking at Makimura Shi's reaction, the man with the eyepatch was also a little strange, but Makimura Shi lowered his head and bit his lips tightly, looking a little strange.
"Okay, let's get going as soon as possible. I think you all want to resolve this matter as soon as possible, right?"
Oda opened the car door and gestured to everyone, and the three of them stared at each other and nodded.
In any case, as long as this matter is resolved, everything will be over.
Thinking of this, they got into Oda's car with Makimura Minoru.
Then, Oda drove everyone to a tall building.
"The president is waiting for you here."
After saying this, Oda led everyone to the elevator and then to the top floor - however, to everyone's surprise, when they walked out of the elevator and came to the room in front of them, the one who greeted them was not the president of Tachibana Real Estate, but several men holding pistols.
"Oda, what's going on? Are you guys lying to us?"
Looking at the man holding a pistol in front of him, Mr. Li glared at Oda angrily, and the latter shook his head, then took out a gun as well - aiming at Makimura Minoru.
"I'm so sorry, Ms. Makimura Minoru, I absolutely cannot let you meet the president... So I'm sorry, you're going to die here!"
"Reality!!"
Seeing that Shi was about to be shot, the man with the eye mask shouted and rushed over to pin Makura Shi under him.
At the same time, gunshots rang out.
"Bang!!!"
“Woooooa ...
However, what no one expected was that along with the gunshots, there was also Oda's screams. When the masked man and Mr. Li looked up, they were surprised to find that Oda was holding his bloody right hand and kneeling on the ground in pain, and the killers next to him had their heads blown up and became corpses.
"Huh...it seems that the Grim Reaper is quite reliable."
Seeing this scene, the man with the eyepatch was relieved. Fortunately, Mr. Li had asked him to protect Mucunshi until the signing of the contract and the transfer of the land were completed. He originally thought that there would be no more problems. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen on the other side when the land was about to be transferred!
Thinking of this, the man with the eyepatch stood up, walked to Oda, and kicked him down.
"What on earth are you thinking? Why are you going to kill Xiao Shi?!"
"Um...Mashima-san...!"
However, what the eyepatch man did not expect was that Oda did not answer, but it was Makimura Minoru who anxiously climbed up from the ground.
"Can you please take a look at his arm and see if there is a bat tattoo?"
"What?!"
Hearing this, the eyepatch man and Mr. Li were both shocked. They rushed over, pressed Oda to the ground, and then rolled up his sleeves. Sure enough, on Oda's left arm, there was a tattoo of a bat!
Seeing that the truth was exposed, Oda had no way to deny it anymore and had to tell the truth.
It turned out that he was the human trafficker who deceived, imprisoned, and sold Makimura Minoru!
According to Oda, he had indeed done some evil things before that, trafficking in women was one of them. However, shortly after that, he met the president of Tachibana Real Estate, was convinced by him, and then became his younger brother. He left the underworld and worked for the president as an employee of Tachibana Real Estate.
"But why didn't you let Xiaoshi meet the president?"
Although he knew the whole story, the man with the eyepatch was still confused. Could it be that Makimura Shi would be unwilling to hand over the land because he found out that this man was the murderer who persecuted him?
However, Oda's next answer surprised everyone.
"Because... the president is Miss Makimura Minoru's... brother!"
“…Huh?”
According to Oda, at the beginning, he didn't know that the two had this relationship. Later, one time, he was watching TV with the president, and the TV was broadcasting a report about orphans left in China returning to their country to find their families. Among them was Makimura Minoru and her mother. At that time, Oda also recognized Makimura Minoru and remembered that this was the woman he had deceived, imprisoned, and then sold, but he didn't care too much.
However, what he did not expect was that when he saw the mother and daughter, his president suddenly stood up and excitedly said that they were his mother and sister!
It turned out that the president of Rikka Real Estate was one of the people who smuggled into Japan. He left his mother and sister at the age of fifteen and came to Japan to work hard, hoping that one day he would be able to make a name for himself and then go to pick up his sister and mother.
Upon hearing this news, Oda was stunned. If the president knew that he was the one who deceived, imprisoned and sold his sister, he would be finished. So after that, he has been secretly hindering the president's search for his sister. However, what Oda did not expect was that because of the Kamurocho development incident, Makimura Minoru surfaced. If he let her meet the president, he would be dead.
So he secretly contacted the Tojo Clan, hoping that they could kill Makimura Minoru - this was also the reason why the eyepatch man received the assassination order.
As a result, Oda himself did not expect this kind of ending. Tojo would collapse and be completely destroyed, and now Makimura Minoru was about to meet his brother - so he had to take the risk and act again. As long as he killed Makimura Minoru, everything would be over!
Unfortunately, his plan ultimately failed.
After hearing what Oda said, the three of them were completely stunned. Who could have thought that there was such a connection?
It's even more outrageous than the TV series!!
"……I see."
Just when everyone didn't know what to do, suddenly, a voice sounded, and they turned around and saw a handsome young man in a suit walking out with a cane. When Oda saw him appear, he looked desperate.
“President…I…!”
"Oda, I never thought you would..."
Looking at Oda, the president's expression was also complicated. On the one hand, this was his brother who had sworn blood oath with him, but on the other hand, he was actually the murderer who tortured his sister...
"I'm sorry, President... I know it's useless to say anything now, so..."
Having said that, Oda suddenly stretched out his left hand and picked up the pistol.
"This is my final statement to you, Oda!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Oda raised his pistol and pulled the trigger at his own head.
As the gunshot rang out, the man completely ended his sinful life.
