Chapter 109 The Guardian Mafia Attacks in Tears...
Under the attack of tears, the player who finally couldn't escape the dress-up game put on the latest little white dress and returned to the leader's room with a gloomy face, holding Dazai Osamu who had escaped the disaster, under the satisfied gaze of Shibusawa Tatsuhiko.
Except for one cadre who had a rift with the leader, all the cadres and senior officials received the news and gathered here early.
As soon as the player reached the door, he heard the discussion coming from the leader's room.
"What's described in this letter must be a trap. The Special Ability Department actually came up with such an idea. It's obvious they're trying to catch us in a trap! I don't agree with letting the leader go!"
"Yes, if we agree to their request, the danger will be too great. It's not worth the risk."
"But if we don't agree, then that ability license..."
"A supernatural license is just a piece of paper. It's not as important as the leader's life. Ultimately, it's because Yokohama is too complicated."
"So, the bottom line is, why did the Special Ability Agents choose this location? This is what we should pay attention to."
…
…
The discussion continued, and a player who noticed that some NPCs' attacks had slowed down chose to push the door open and walk in.
The player walked around the red-haired, blue-eyed NPC who looked like he was in a daze; stepped over the black-haired, purple-eyed NPC who had been knocked to the ground by his own supernatural power; touched the doll sitting on the blond NPC; shuddered at the inexplicable smile of the squinty-eyed NPC; and incidentally, he fixed the NPC with the bandages he had pulled...
Sitting down on a specially made elevated child-size chair for the player, the player received the letter from the capable blond-haired, blue-eyed secretary who had arrived earlier. The letter had been sent through a special channel by the Special Ability Special Affairs Department and had been carefully checked over and over by his subordinates.
"We cordially invite Miss Chiyo Kamikami, the leader of the Port Mafia, to gather on the ship departing from Yokohama Port in three days. Special Agent Koru..." The player looked at the letter in his hand and slowly spoke out the words written on it, word by word.

Player: “?!”
Medical line? This player hasn't opened it yet!
"Go, we must go!" The player looked at the letter and agreed with great difficulty.
Mori Ogai, who finally got up, said: "..."
No? Thinking, thinking? He felt like he was almost losing his breath when faced with a leader so decisive in this regard.
Seeing this, the psychic behind him, Alice, decisively hit her master again.
"Pfft..." Mr. Mori Ogai sat down, then gave Alice a wry smile and said, "You were a bit too heavy-handed, Alice-chan. You should control your strength."
The man in the white coat narrowed his purple eyes slightly, and looked at the leader beside him seemingly unintentionally - but unfortunately, by doing so he was just winking at a blind man.
The player picked up a piece of paper and started writing and drawing, thinking about who to bring to the meeting if they were to have a negotiation, and didn't notice the gaze that Mori Ogai was throwing at him.
Mori Ogai: “…”
"Hmph, Rintaro is such a loser!" The blonde girl beside him stomped her feet fiercely.
"Excuse my bluntness, Chief," Ozaki Kouye frowned. "I don't understand why you accepted the invitation from the Special Ability Special Agents Department. The negotiation venue they chose is the ocean, far from land. If they have ulterior motives, I'm afraid..."
Before Ozaki Hongye could finish her words, the player jumped to her side, looking calm and soothing, "Don't worry, Sister Hongye. I'll be fine."
The player turned to look at the group of executives, prospective executives, and personally discovered talents in the leader's room and breathed a sigh of relief. "The Port Mafia has come this far thanks to everyone's hard work. After the Dragon Head War, judging by its scale, there's no longer any organization in Yokohama that we fear."
Jouno Caiju nodded in agreement, her eyes slightly opened as she looked at the solemn-looking leader. "You're right, leader. Ever since the Port Mafia joined the fray, other organizations have lost much of their strength due to struggles and infighting. From a size perspective, they can't even be compared to the Port Mafia."
"If we can take over all of these forces, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call the Port Mafia the best in the world of Yokohama."
"Yes, although I really want the Port Mafia to become very powerful, this is not my ultimate goal." The player sat back on the customized children's chair.
Oda Sakunosuke's eyes moved slightly, and the corners of his straight lips couldn't help but outline a smile, which made Dazai Osamu, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Odasaku..., could this person be...?
"I once told someone that the Mafia isn't necessarily full of violence and blood. Great power may make us miserable, but it also gives us more possibilities and carries more responsibilities." The player held up his face, his chubby cheeks trembling slightly, as he expressed a wish that could be described as fantastical.
When Ozaki Kouye heard this, the hand holding the umbrella sword trembled suddenly and she couldn't help but clench her fist.
The beautiful and elegant woman's movements were so subtle that the players did not notice her changes. Only Elena, who was also a woman, noticed the changes in her and her expression could not help but change.
The player seemed oblivious and continued, "An organization filled with blood and violence might become powerful for a short period of time, but in the end, it will be like a flash in the pan, quickly disappearing into eternity. Such an organization will never reach its peak."
"My goal from the beginning has always been to make Yokohama a happier place to live."
Players must make every resident happy!
Player: "The Port Mafia doesn't need to be powerful. It just needs to be able to protect the smiles of the residents within its sphere of influence. That's enough."
"The presence of the Port Mafia doesn't need to be conspicuous. It just needs to intimidate and intimidate other terrorist forces. That's enough!"
Unconsciously, Mori Ogai's exaggerated expression disappeared. His pupils shrank slightly and he looked at the leader with an unclear expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
Dazai Osamu also looked at the little leader who usually liked to laugh. Her expression was still very calm, but the flicker in her eyes revealed her inner unrest.
Really... worthy of being a player...
"The Special Ability Division needs to curb our arrogance and recapture Shibusawa Ryuhiko; and we, on the other hand, need official permission as a springboard for further and broader cooperation."
In response to the NPC's question about why the player chose to attend the meeting proposed by the Special Ability Agent Department, the player gave a final explanation to the room full of NPCs, "So, if it can succeed, it's just a little risky, so why not?"
“…”
"Yes, we will follow your orders, Chief!" everyone said in unison.
The meeting ended with no one objecting to the leader's decision and everyone acquiescing.
——————
That night, Mori Ougai had a serious expression on his face, blocked everyone's view, and had a half-hour long conversation with an unknown person.
"Really? Is that what she said?" The old man on the other end of the phone asked in a mature, steady and majestic voice.
"Ah, although I don't know if she really thinks so..." Under the dim light, Mori Ogai wore a pair of plain glasses for the first time in a long time, which added a sense of stability to his appearance.
"But judging by her daily actions and the orders she issues, her actions are indeed moving Yokohama in a positive direction."
"Really? You think so too..." The old man seemed to have thought of something, and said with some emotion, "In that case—"
The old man stopped talking abruptly. After Mori Ogai repeatedly asked, he spoke again, "I understand. Thank you very much, Ogai. It seems that the decision you made back then was a good one."
Mori Ogai's smile grew wider. What could make him happier than knowing that the leader he served had the same ideals as himself?
He slowly took off his glasses, revealing his dark purple eyes. He whispered to the other end of the phone, "This is also the best solution, teacher."
Yes, based on one's own situation and the leader's powerful choice, becoming an accomplice of the current leader, isn't this the optimal solution?
"It seems that you have gradually accepted this fact." The old man, Natsume Soseki, smiled on the other side and was very happy for his disciple.
"Compared to Brother Fukuzawa who is busy all day but still can't catch a cat and has to rely on our leader for the only time, my life of eating, drinking and changing Alice's clothes seems to be pretty good, teacher." Even in front of the teacher, Mori Ogai did not hide his dislike for his brother Fukuzawa Yukichi.
Upon hearing this, Natsume Soseki just smiled and said nothing more.
Let the disciples resolve their grievances among themselves! He has already reached retirement age!
