Chapter 2566 2578 [Curaçao Scolding Incident]
As the bus incident came to an end, the turbulent waves returned to calm. However, the ripples that spread out still disturbed many people.
...Curaçao, far outside Tokyo, is one of them.
"I didn't realize you were so timid before." Rum's voice came from the receiver with a hint of dissatisfaction. "It is indeed troublesome to accidentally enter Uzo's stage, but you should have observed from the side and reported the situation to me at any time, instead of leaving in a car without permission, or even running off on a business trip without permission."
Curacao: “…” It’s easy to say, but how can you be sure that I was outside the stage at that time, and not somewhere where I could be pulled away to be cannon fodder at any time?
Curacao: "I'm so sorry. I'll pay more attention next time."
...Pay attention to avoiding more promptly so as to completely avoid that guy's stage.
"Hmph, you'd better." Although Rum was dissatisfied, he would not punish a capable subordinate for something that was not planned.
His attention quickly turned back to the business. "Come back as soon as possible. That guy has been restless recently. He has been meeting with lawyers frequently. I'm afraid he will take action soon. I arranged for someone to approach him, but he is too alert. So I plan to change my thinking and start from another side."
Rum flipped through the information at hand: "The lawyer he hired is the famous 'Queen of the Legal World'. It just so happens that you are also a lawyer - go contact Hibiki Eri and see what information you can get from her."
"Hibiscus?" Curacao's fingers trembled and the cup in his hand almost fell.
As a "lawyer", of course she had heard of this name, but not only because of the other party's superb professional level and famous record, but also because... this person seemed to be the mother of Maori Ran and the wife of Maori Kogoro.
…and was also Uzo’s former neighbor.
Curacao opened his mouth, and the words "Can't you try another way?" were on the tip of his tongue, but he had to swallow them back in the end.
——She had just been scolded by Rum for avoiding Uzo. If she spoke up again about this kind of thing, her career as "Rum's second in command" would probably be over.
As we all know, there is no retirement or resignation in the organization, and if it really caused more and more dissatisfaction in Rum…
Curacao: "...Okay, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, she looked at her phone and fell into deep thought.
"...If I had known this, I shouldn't have taken the bar exam." Curacao hated his photographic memory for the first time. "Why not do something else? Like making sushi like Rum?"
But now that things have come to this, it's too late to regret.
Curacao could only rub his forehead and comfort himself: "It's not a big problem. I remember that although Kisaki Eri is the mother of Maori Ran and has not divorced Maori Kogoro yet, she has long been separated from the father and daughter and they only see each other a few times a year.
"That is to say, her interactions with Jiang Xia are pitifully rare. As long as I avoid them, I shouldn't run into them."
That being said…
Curacao walked to the window, looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, and sighed silently.
——Ten seconds ago, her boss, who could not be disobeyed, had just asked her to finish her work as soon as possible and return to Tokyo. But now, she only had an impulse to stay here and never go back.
"If there were no Uzo." Curacao leaned against the window and sighed silently, "How happy my work would be."
…
There are many people who have similar feelings.
Vodka, who is living a difficult life in Tokyo, is one of them.
The parking lot of Mihua General Hospital.
After getting out of Gin's car, looking back every few steps, Vodka didn't dare to stay for long. While Gin was still nearby, he took two steps at a time and rushed into the hospital quickly.
As Gin's assistant, Vodka knew how busy this backbone was. It was probably only once that he got to the hospital in Gin's car.
Therefore, before coming here, Vodka made an appointment carefully during the free time last night - that damn lazy doctor Shirai finally did not skip work today. And because of his work attitude, the number of people who made appointments with him decreased rapidly, so Vodka got a lucky break and easily got an appointment.
"I don't know what kind of person that bastard Dr. Shirai is."
Vodka walked skillfully towards the clinic, clenching his fists angrily. "I've come here so many times, risking my life, and finally I can see him. Three visits to his thatched cottage is nothing more than this... If this continues, even if Wuzo lets him go, I will want to kill him."
Ice cream's murderous aura emerged silently, and quickly fell to the ground under Vodka's vigilant self-reflection.
He adjusted his brown glasses and sat obediently in the waiting area like other patients.
…
Although he seemed to be waiting for the doctor calmly, in fact, countless ways of being disturbed had emerged in Vodka's mind - sudden patient injury incidents, hospital bomb incidents...
However, unexpectedly, until the young nurse called out his number, nothing that was expected happened.
"Mr. Yamada? Is Mr. Yamada here?" The nurse looked at the number and last name displayed on the screen, "Please go to Clinic 307."
Vodka came back to his senses with a start, put away the terrible guesses in his mind, stood up and walked into the house in doubt.
Inside the room, a plain-looking man with slightly harsh eyes was wearing a white coat and sitting at the table.
This man didn't look good, but the moment he saw him, Vodka's eyes twitched and he almost burst into tears.
——Finally, I finally met this hateful doctor!
The patient's gaze was eager and resentful, but unfortunately the other party did not notice it.
Dr. Shirai picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, not even bothering to look at the door. When he heard someone coming in, he just glanced at the client's information on the screen and asked casually, "What are the symptoms?"
This comfortable posture even surprised Dr. Shirai himself.
He looked at his leisurely reflection on the screen and couldn't help laughing in his heart: Who would have thought that just a week or two ago, he was still scheming for a mere director position?
——Dr. Shirai has a father who is a vice president. This sounds very good, but there is a president above the vice president, and there is even more than one vice president. His father's power is far from being able to cover the sky with one hand.
This means that even with his father's help, he still has to work twice as hard if he wants to be promoted to director.
A spring that is stretched too tight will easily break, and a person who works too hard will easily fail.
Dr. Shirai gradually felt a little bored as he watched his father, a top-notch worker, working diligently, writing papers, maintaining interpersonal relationships, and handling chores every day.
At this moment, a mysterious rich man offered him another path in life, and he was surprised to find that money in the world could come so easily.
