Chapter 70 Beating Around the bush
Dazai Osamu had already figured out the members of each organization in the committee, and he could tell which organization the arrested person belonged to at a glance.
It’s a pity that those who were arrested were not from any organization, and most of them were brought here by coercion or inducement.
Early in the morning, a special guest came to the Special Power Business Department.
"Hey~ Chief Taneda~"
Taneda Santouhuo couldn't help pinching the bridge of his nose as he looked at the idol with mandarin eyes who pushed the door open.
"Dazai-kun, please take a seat."
Dazai Osamu sat on the sofa in the reception room, and Taneda also came out from behind his desk and poured him a cup of hot tea.
"You must be exhausted from being busy with Leibo Street these days."
Dazai Osamu picked up the teacup and sighed, "Yeah, you know, I'm so busy and there are so many troubles, but there are still people making trouble."
"I can't find anyone to help me." Dazai Osamu took a sip of tea and said with his eyes downcast, "It's really useless."
The corners of Zhongtian Shantouhuo's mouth twitched and he chuckled twice.
"Mayor Tsushima said you wanted to see me. What's the matter?"
"What else could it be? Of course I want a supernatural license to start a business."
Taneda Santouhuo: "Hey, please be more tactful."
"I was afraid you would pretend not to understand."
Farming Mountain Fire: "..."
Is he that kind of person?
"The supernatural power business license is not something that can be given out casually. Not many businesses in Yokohama have obtained a supernatural power business license. Besides, what are you going to use this supernatural power business license for?"
Taneda Santouki knew that Dazai Osamu and his five companions were very close to the Port Mafia. He was puzzled because Dazai Osamu and his companions did not often travel to Yokohama. Even if they did, he had investigated and found that they had only met Mori Ogai once when he was avoiding his fans. Could it be that he fell in love with Mori Ogai during that time?
The same goes for Mori Ogai. Taneda Santouhuo knows that he is an old fox who will not do anything without profit. How could he be involved in charity and public welfare?
He actually took on this thankless task of helping to eliminate the forces that were obstructing Eclipse. The large-scale activities attracted the attention of the authorities, and they sent people to warn them. The people there seemed to be innocent and said that they were contributing to Yokohama's cause. But they could not refute anything because that was the fact.
When asking indirectly, Mori Ogai pointed directly at the large screen outside. Through the glass window of the conference room, one could clearly see five beautiful boys with different styles. He said, "Well, the main thing is to support the idol's career."
"So you are chasing stars?" The dispatched personnel from the Special Agent Department couldn't believe it and he almost couldn't hold back the expression on his face.
Look into his eyes and say it again!
Mori Ogai said confidently: "Otherwise, my colleagues all have luxury goods and airplanes to support them. I am just protecting the idol's life safety and supporting public welfare construction. Is it exaggerated?"
Oh my God, the mute is starting to sing, and he can hear this sentence today.
Maybe he accidentally took cefuroxime and drank some wine this morning, or maybe he ate too many Mori Ogai poisonous mushrooms.
Alice came running over in her little leather shoes, raising her pretty face, "I like Xiaozhi the best! Lili likes him too, and Xiaoji likes him too..."
Watching the girls count one by one, Mori Ogai showed a helpless smile, "Alice likes it very much too. I only have this one daughter, so of course I have to spoil her."
Three reasons in one sentence, who would believe it?
The member of the secret service department smirked, "That's great."
Finally, he still followed the procedure and gave a few warnings, "No matter what, the Port Mafia cannot overstep their boundaries. This action has already caused a lot of panic. Especially for the psychics in the Port Mafia, if they use their abilities at will, it will be no small matter if they are investigated."
"Of course." Mori Ogai Fox smiled with narrowed eyes, "I understand."
"Don't you understand yet?"
Dazai Osamu asked back: "Who should I give this supernatural license to? Don't you know?"
Taneda Santou was choked again. It was Dazai Osamu who came to ask for help, but why did he feel like he was the one in the wrong?
They all talk like this, pretending to be confused even though they know the truth.
"To the port mafia, right?" Taneda Santohuo said helplessly, his expression grim, "No."
"What is your relationship with Mori Ogai of the Port Mafia? Why do you have to give the Port Mafia a license to open a business with supernatural powers?"
Dazai Osamu: "What else can the relationship between idols and fans be? With a supernatural license, I can do things more legitimately. I don't want the media to reveal that I cooperated with an unlicensed and shady company one day."
"Mori Ogai has already brought out the psychic team, do we still need that thin piece of paper?"
What Taneda Santouki meant was that since Mori Ogai was so arrogant, did he still need a piece of paper to maintain "orthodoxy"?
"From ancient times to the present, there have been examples of doing things in a hurry and doing things first and reporting later. The Port Mafia is also for the construction of Leibo Street. You also know how efficient the government is, Chief Farmer."
"You can talk."
Dazai Osamu: "This is an important means for me to support myself. Fans who can't speak have already turned against me."
He looked considerate and said, "I can ask him to change it to a branch of Yiyuan Entertainment tomorrow. This way, even if it is under our name, the port mafia can just wash its hands and go ashore."
Zhongtian Shantouhuo held his forehead with his hand: "Is there anyone who calculates like you?"
"Captain Taneda, do you know how much money we invested in Leibo Street? Could it be that this is all for ourselves?" Dazai Osamu had no intention of compromising and begging for mercy, and his attitude was tougher than anyone else's.
"How much is a supernatural business license worth? Is it worth more than the value of Leibo Street after it is built? Is it worth more than Japan's international reputation? Is it worth more than Yokohama's future development? Among the organizations that have obtained supernatural business licenses, who has created more value than us?"
These questions left Zongtian Shantouhuo speechless.
"Others have the Best Citizen Award. We don't care about that, but some people are trying to hold us back. People are really not what they used to be."
Taneda Santohuo pushed up his glasses and said, "Dazai-kun, your contribution is indeed great, but urban construction is not our responsibility. Otherwise, I will contact the leaders of the relevant departments for you and set up a special award for you. How about that?"
"Captain Taneda, I'm not here to talk about urban construction." Dazai Osamu leaned against the handrail and chatted casually. "Alas, I met fans on the road, they were all worried about my weight loss, saying that these things have nothing to do with us, and the government should worry about it. It's fine if the government doesn't worry about it, because we wanted to do it in the first place, so we can't blame others. But standing by and watching without any support, just waiting for the final results, isn't that too much?"
And sometimes, what is the difference between standing idly by and aiding and abetting evil?
Dazai Osamu looked at him with a gloomy gaze, as if to penetrate his conscience.
How many people who are involved in politics have a conscience? Even if a person is as hard as a stone, his heart is as hard as a stone. But Dazai Osamu's every word, including his voice, is very inspiring. It's different from talking to ordinary people.
For a moment, Zhongtian Shantouhuo actually felt guilty.
What Dazai Osamu said... seems to make sense. They are indeed not kind.
In fact, if Dazai Osamu wanted to use it for himself, Taneda Santoka and other senior executives would have discussed it and given him the supernatural power business license. He had known for a long time that all the members of the idol group had supernatural powers, because they reported it as soon as they entered Yokohama. Although he was surprised, they did not disturb public order, so he only paid attention to it occasionally.
"Someone was arrested in Leibo Street yesterday." Dazai Osamu changed the subject, "I don't know which unscrupulous person sent someone to commit murder at the construction site."
Zhongtian Shantouhuo: "This is not our responsibility."
"Of course I know, but I'm too lazy to look for the others. Chief Taneda just gave the order to keep a closer eye on them and not let anyone follow the prisoners into their own house."
Taneda Santouhuo: "You are giving me orders now."
He understood what he heard, and decided to arrest a few more people, and it would be best if they were given the strictest possible sentence.
"This is a good opportunity for the government to establish its authority. What? The Special Ability Agency is going to break away from the Japanese government, occupy Yokohama and establish its own regime?" Dazai Osamu pulled the corner of his mouth, trying to figure out whether to laugh or not.
"Dazai-kun, don't say such things." Even Taneda Santohuo would be shocked by his outspokenness. Dazai Osamu did this on purpose. If someone with ulterior motives heard this, there would be another bloody storm.
"Hmm." Dazai Osamu said innocently.
"You and your brother have really different personalities." Taneda Santouki had met Tsushima Eiji, a typical man from a political family. No matter what he thought in his heart, he had to keep up appearances and speak in three roundabout ways. He was completely different from Dazai Osamu, who would roll his eyes at you if he didn't like you.
But they are similar in that they are smart.
Taneda Santouki glanced at Dazai Osamu who looked calm and composed, and half-overturned his previous thought.
Of course, his personality might be fake, after all, he has been in the entertainment industry since he was a child. What is this called, a persona?
"Then you have good vision."
They both held up their teacups. Zhongtian's office was at the innermost part and there were basically no people coming from outside. The two of them didn't speak and the place was so quiet that it seemed as if no one was there.
Putting down the teacup, he heard two very light "dong" sounds, and said with a sharp look in his eyes: "After saying so much nonsense, if you have anything crucial to say, don't hide it."
Dazai Osamu pondered: "Guess what we found on Leibo Street?"
Zhongtian Shantouhuo's eyelids twitched, but his face remained calm as usual, "What could be in Leibo Street?"
"It's nothing, actually."
Dazai poured himself some tea, the amber tea swirled in golden circles at the bottom of the cup. He ignored the topic he had started and the people whose curiosity had been aroused, and said in a flash, "Even if we weren't there, according to the current development trend, you would have to give the supernatural license to the port mafia sooner or later. What difference does it make if you give it sooner or later?"
"What development trend have you seen?" Taneda Santo was furious. He wanted to continue the previous topic, but looking at Dazai Osamu's attitude, he knew that he would not talk to him.
Dazai Osamu picked up the tea and drank it all, moistening his throat. When he raised his eyes, a gleam of light flashed.
No one can survive Dazai Osamu's full-power attack.
After Dazai Osamu left, Taneda Santouki's bald head was glowing with melancholy.
"Sure enough, it was just his character setting at the beginning. He acted so honest and simple-minded, which made me let down my guard." Taneda Santouki murmured. God knows that Dazai Osamu had just caught a loophole in his language and criticized him. It was the first time that he experienced the horror of being led by someone.
The mayoral position of Tsushima Eiji should be handed over to Tsushima Shuji, who may be able to replace the current prime minister in a few years.
