"That guy named Asami Haruki..."
Tachibana Yu narrowed his eyes, snorted coldly, and commented:
"Having wicked intentions."
Then, he suddenly changed the subject.
Do you still remember Ken Yamamoto?
Ju Huang's response was a bewildered look.
Who is it?
"..."
Tachibana Yu pressed his throbbing temples, glanced at the iron rod he had thrown into the corner, and said with forced patience:
"The next successor of the Yamamoto Group... You had a fight with him just two months ago."
As one of the three great families of ghost stories, Hanabishi also holds a place in ordinary people's society, and can be called the uncrowned king of the country's underworld, but this does not mean that they can rest easy.
Countless other organizations lurk in the shadows, eyeing us with predatory intent.
Like a loosely connected pack of wolves, their eyes gleamed with a sinister green light as they watched their wolf king standing atop the mountain of corpses. The moment the wolf king showed the slightest sign of weakness or fatigue, they would swarm him, tearing him apart and devouring him.
The Yamamoto Group is one of them.
They took their opportunistic approach to the extreme, calling themselves the rabid dogs under the Hanabishi-kai, while secretly contacting other organizations in an attempt to find an opportunity to instigate a riot.
Of course, it has never succeeded.
Tachibana Yu didn't mind that these organizations had their own ulterior motives; in his eyes, they were nothing more than petty squabbles.
He was certain that as long as he remained in that position, these people would never be able to cause any trouble.
This is not arrogance, but confidence based on strength.
Compared to ordinary people, Yumishi is almost an existence from another dimension.
As for whether Ju Huang can hold onto her position after his abdication, we can find out by looking at the outcome of that day's struggle.
Since it was during a holiday, Tachibana Yu couldn't stand Tachibana Ou's aimless wandering around in front of him, so he gave him a patrol assignment to get rid of him.
That was a piece of land that Hua Ling had her eye on and was preparing for commercial development. They were still negotiating with the landowner, so it was a good opportunity to have Ju Huang go and learn from her.
When he arrived there, the successor of the Yamamoto Group, Ken Yamamoto, was already there.
It's hard to say whether the other party did it intentionally. Given the Yamamoto Group's keen senses, it's impossible that they didn't notice the Hanabishi-kai's acquisition intentions, yet they chose to make their move at the same time.
The building had been completely emptied. Yamamoto, having finished his workout, arrived with a large group of people and smiled at the landowner:
"Our Yamamoto Group is willing to offer twice the market price, but even so, Mr. Tanaka, you still refuse to agree?"
The man he called Tanaka was slightly hunched over, sweat dripping from his forehead, trembling like a leaf. Not far away, a worker's box fell to the ground, startling him so much that he almost jumped up.
"This...this...we've already reached an agreement with the Hanabishi-kai..."
"As far as I know, you only made a verbal agreement, right?" Yamamoto Ken's smile remained unchanged, but it seemed to carry a hint of threat. "Since no contract has been signed yet, there's still room for negotiation, isn't there?"
As he spoke, a menacing-looking henchman stepped forward from behind, the shadow of a black gun inadvertently appearing at his waist.
"Mr. Tanaka, you need to see the situation clearly..."
"What's going on?"
Footsteps, deliberately amplified, approached, and Ju Huang appeared at the doorway.
He resembled a fashion model who had stumbled into an illegal transaction, wearing a brightly colored and boldly printed T-shirt, the cross necklace around his neck swaying as he walked, inexplicably flashing a cold light.
As if he found the current situation amusing, he twirled the Buddhist prayer beads on his wrist, a carefree smile on his face.
"you……"
Ken Yamamoto turned around, intending to reprimand him, but suddenly fell silent upon seeing a familiar figure behind him.
But his perceptive subordinate strode forward and angrily said:
"Who are you? This place has been sealed off by the Yamamoto Group. How did you get in?"
Before Ju Huang could answer, Yamamoto Ken kicked the man, knocking him to the ground.
"Shut up! You have no right to speak here!"
Looking at everything before her, Ju Huang yawned in boredom.
It's clear that Ken Yamamoto recognized him through Uncle Watanabe behind him and was afraid that he had killed his useless subordinate and was putting on a show here.
But he didn't come here to watch a monkey show.
“Tanaka…you’re right?” He waved to the landowners whose situation was unclear. “I’m here on behalf of Hanabishi.”
As he spoke, he took the contract presented to him by the person behind him.
"Let's finish early so I can catch the variety show tonight."
Tanaka felt his legs go weak, but he still walked over instinctively. However, the next second he was pulled back by Yamamoto Ken, and then a gun was pressed against his waist.
Yamamoto Ken didn't look at him, but instead looked at Tachibana no Ura, his eyes inexplicably showing a hint of provocation.
"You must be the young master of the Flower Ridge Society... Tachibana no Higanbana."
"My name is Ken Yamamoto, and I am the next leader of the Yamamoto Group. It's a pleasure to meet you."
As he spoke, Juhuang reached out and picked at her ear, as if she hadn't heard him, and spoke a few seconds later.
"ah?"
Watanabe lowered his head quietly and pinched his thigh to stop himself from laughing out loud.
Ah Huang's ability to draw hatred... is truly as good as ever.
"..."
Ken Yamamoto's smile froze, and he tightened his grip on the gun barrel.
"...I think transactions should follow a first-come, first-served order, right?"
"Our Yamamoto group has already reached an agreement with Mr. Tanaka. You agree, right, Tanaka-kun?"
As he spoke, he leaned close to the other person's ear and whispered:
"Your daughter should be home from school in half an hour... The Yamamoto Group is happy to help our friends with small favors like picking up and dropping off their children."
"..."
Tanaka's movements suddenly stopped, his pupils shrank abruptly, his lips trembled, his breathing became rapid, an indistinct gurgling sound came from his throat, and his eyes were filled with despair.
"Sir...please..."
Ken Yamamoto's smile remained unchanged.
"I……"
Finally, Tanaka looked at the group of people from the Hanabishi Association, his face pale, and his head was about to fall heavily.
However, at that moment, Juhuang spoke up.
"This is so boring."
He shifted his body, but under the wary gazes of the Yamamoto Group members, he only moved his shoulders. The smile on his face had vanished, and only a hint of weariness could be seen on his still somewhat youthful and handsome face.
Only Watanabe, standing behind him, could see that Tachibana no Ou was not as calm as he appeared. He was starting to get impatient, but he didn't show the slightest bit of anxiety in front of the enemy.
If the boss saw this, he would probably be pleased.
"Let's begin."
"Varied--"
In the last second before Yamamoto Ken fell, all that remained in his retina was the powerful fist that swept in with a gust of wind.
