Ushiyama Eiji couldn't believe what he was seeing. Weren't these two tall men his personal bodyguards? Why was Soutarou Goji so frightened? And what about the antidote he was talking about?
Even though he had many questions in his mind, facing the situation where a gun was pointed at the back of his head, he had no choice but to raise his hands and asked cautiously without any of the arrogance he had just shown.
"Um, brothers, is there any misunderstanding between us?"
"There's no misunderstanding. From now on, I'll ask you questions and you'll answer them. No tricks. That's not a toy gun against your head."
Fujiwara Yuu didn't want to give a good face to the social scum, so he hooked his finger at White behind him. White understood what he meant and directly used the materials on the scene. He tied up Ushiyama Eiji with the rope in the corner and forced him to sit on the pile of heroin.
Fujiwara Yuu, standing across from him, was fiddling with his lighter. He looked up at the nervous Ushiyama Eiji, but instead of asking any questions, he stared at him quietly until the other person spoke first.
"Brother, if you have any questions, just ask them now. It would be terrible if your pistol went off accidentally."
"I need to test your attitude first. What if you're lying and I let you go? Don't you think that would make me look foolish?" Fujiwara Yuu walked forward, took out the wakizashi he always carried, and gently placed the blade on Ushiyama Eiji's thigh. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "How about getting something from you first? Like, maybe cutting off a piece of flesh? Then, when you tell the truth, I can do a simple suture?"
When Ushiyama Eiji saw the blade pointed directly between his legs, he was so frightened that he quickly shook his head and said:
"No, no, no, I'm telling the truth. I'm definitely telling the truth. I'll answer whatever you ask!"
He didn't want to lose his life at such a young age, and he felt the madness in this person's eyes. He was sure that the person in front of him was not trying to scare him, and would really do anything to make him uncomfortable in order to achieve his goals.
Rather than suffering the consequences of telling the truth, it is better to be honest and tell the truth directly to avoid physical pain.
Ushiyama Eiji had always been a fence-sitter. He had enjoyed a life of wealth and luxury for a long time, and even if he were sentenced to death in prison, it would be better than being tortured. Besides, executions in Japan were generally very long, so he could still survive for a while.
Sotaro Goji, who was kneeling beside him, couldn't help swallowing. He moved his knees to bring his legs closer together, and was very worried that someone would stab him between his legs if he was unhappy.
After Fujiwara Yuu was sure that Ushiyama Eiji wouldn't dare to deceive him, he slowly asked:
"First question, when did you come to Moon Shadow Island to do the drug deal?"
"I'm a local resident of Yueying Island. The drug trade started fifteen years ago. The person who initially took charge of the drugs wasn't the township councilor, but a man named Shimokawa Yosuke."
As expected, it was Shimokawa Yosuke at first, which would explain the meaning of "Moonlight Sonata" being on his floppy disk. He probably wanted to use it as a metaphor for Moon Shadow Island.
"Second question, how many people on Moon Shadow Island are involved in the drug trade?"
Niushan Eiji moved his fingers, and names popped up in his head one by one. He answered:
"Isamu Kameyama, Hideo Kawashima, Tatsuji Kuroiwa, Ken Nishimoto, and Kazuaki Hirata, five in total."
The first four names, Fujiwara Yuu, were not surprising. With the clues provided by Nagashima Masaaki, he could also guess that the reason for the four people's sudden wealth was related to drug trafficking. What surprised him was that the squinty-eyed secretary was also among them.
Fujiwara Yuu thought of the thugs he met when he entered the room, and his voice became a little lower:
"Only these five people? Don't the thugs around you count?"
"Those guys are thugs I hired. They are not involved in drug trafficking."
Niushan Yongji was worried that more people would get a piece of the pie, so he did not let his spies get involved in drug trafficking.
Fujiwara Yuu narrowed his eyes, and after confirming that Ushiyama Eiji was not lying, he asked one last question:
"Then my third question is, is the Aso Keiji case from twelve years ago related to you?"
Keiji Aso.
Upon hearing this name, Ushiyama Eiji's expression changed slightly. He hadn't heard this name in a long time. When had he last heard it? It seemed to be two years ago when Kameyama Isamu passed away. Hirata mentioned the piano curse during the transaction with Minglai, causing him to dream that night of the Aso family who had tragically died in front of him.
That was his first time to come into close contact with a dead person and also his first time to carry someone else's body, so the memory is still fresh.
Ushiyama Eiji recalled the scene of that night. He lowered his head and whispered:
"I didn't kill him."
"Who killed him?"
"It was a foreign woman sent by the organization. I don't know her name, but I know she kills without blinking an eye. My former boss wanted to use the money he earned to expand his own power, but I don't know how the organization found out, so he was dealt with by that foreign woman. That's why Aso Keiji died!"
Niushan Yongji's voice trembled slightly. He didn't want to recall what happened that night at all. He could feel the warm blood sprayed on his face, mixed with grayish-white brain matter. Just thinking about it made his stomach churn.
Fujiwara Yuu pulled out his phone and opened the Google app. He typed "Chris Wynyard" into the search bar and handed the resulting photo to Ushiyama Eiji for confirmation. He stared at the photo intently for a moment, then shook his head.
"It's not her. The foreign women I saw at that time were not as pretty as her."
