Hachiman Shrine in Azuchi Castle is more than an hour's drive from Kyoto, let alone Osaka.
Watanabe's eyes suddenly sharpened when he heard Tao Zhiming's statement.
On the watch on the table, the second hand was still spinning.
What is 12 noon?
Why can he tell a precise time?
Watanabe couldn't help standing up, opened the door of the room, and called his subordinates in.
Tao Zhiming seemed to ignore all of this and let him act.
All of this is just as confident as when he let that young yakuza stab O Fukumoto the last time.
Even with one of the most capable subordinates in the group by his side, Watanabe felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
The mobile phones were dialed one by one, but none of them could be dialed.
"...President Tao! What does this mean?" Watanabe asked sharply.
Kobayashi Naoki was stunned.
Isn't it a normal visit?Why are we suddenly so tense when we just met.
And these two people obviously have old grievances.
No wonder Kobayashi Naoki.
Even though he is the chairman of the famous Hankyu Electric Railway, what kind of person is Fukumoto Yuo?When he was arrested that day, the only known parties were Kijima Genichi, Watanabe Nobuhiko, Horikawa Nobuhiko, Tao Zhiming and others.
And even Naoki Kobayashi, who knows about the existence of Fukumoto, has long been accustomed to seeing such a person being taken into custody by the Metropolitan Police Department. Isn't that common?
If it is said that Watanabe came to Tao Zhiming, the first question he asked was that Fukumoto was not enough to surprise Kobayashi Naoki, but now the sudden tension and confrontation made Kobayashi Naoki never expect it.
Reminiscent of last night's phone call, Tao Zhiming unexpectedly asked "What does Prince Jeffrey's banquet have to do with you", Kobayashi Naoki couldn't help it: "President Tao, what the hell..."
Tao Zhiming smiled at him, then looked at Watanabe and said, "Watanabe-san, are you going to stand like this all the time and let me answer your questions condescendingly?"
The tone was very polite, but Watanabe couldn't help it.
Now, the mobile phone can no longer contact the subordinates, which is enough to show the seriousness of the problem.
It was hard for Watanabe to imagine what kind of power was behind this to be able to cut off his contact with the key subordinates of the Yamaguchi-gumi so precisely.
I don't know if it just cut off his mobile phone number, or if it affected all his confidants.
Either way, it's creepy.
Therefore, even if he sat down again, his eyes were chilling.
Tao Zhiming didn't care at all: "I don't know what Watanabe-san means. It's one hour and 12 minutes before 21 noon. Watanabe-san, what do you want to say to me?"
Sixteen minutes passed like this, and Watanabe, through so many phone calls, only got one current situation that made him feel terrified.
The intelligence level gap is too big, just like Fukumoto Yuu, who was suddenly taken away in front of Horikawa Nobuhiko under such circumstances.
Watanabe looked at Kobayashi Naoki with suspicion and anger.
Kobayashi Naoki's heart froze, and he asked anxiously: "President Tao, what is this..."
"Xiaolin-san, you don't know anything, so don't worry." Tao Zhiming smiled kindly, then continued to look at Watanabe, "One hour, two ten minutes."
This countdown situation made Kobayashi Naoki very worried about Watanabe's runaway.
Can the Fifth Generation of the dignified Yamaguchi-gumi tolerate such humiliation?
However, Watanabe did not lose control as he thought, but remained silent all the time.
After a long time, he said: "President Tao, what do you want to know?"
"Actually, I don't need to know anything." Tao Zhiming picked up the watch and put it back on his hand leisurely, "It doesn't make any difference whether Watanabe-san comes here this morning or not. But you still Come, maybe because of what you said, it will affect the final outcome."
He put on his watch and continued to look at Watanabe: "You should be very clear that this cannot be just for Inagawa. So Watanabe-san, what exactly do you want to say to me?"
Kobayashi Naoki remembered what Watanabe said, and asked anxiously: "Watanabe-san, you said you would convince President Tao, tell me!"
His intuition is not good, after all, he and the Yamaguchi-gumi also have some business ties.
Watanabe was only thinking about what Naoki Kobayashi said about Tao Dalang and Hashimoto Taro during the phone call yesterday, and felt a little at a loss.
I grew up from the Yamaguchi group. I have been a brutal yakuza since I was a teenager, and I have the most capable subordinates around me.
Why is he not afraid?
Right now in this room, it's 1 vs 3.
But this is his territory.
If he had already laid out a plan against the Yamaguchi-gumi, even if he just hit the ground by mistake today and appeared here at the most inappropriate time, he must have been fully prepared.
On that day, the young yakuza from the Inagawa Club pierced Fukumoto's palm with a dagger so brazenly.
Watanabe took a deep breath, looked at the papered wooden door, and said slowly: "I have always admired the path guided by President Tao for the Inagawa Club."
Tao Zhiming was noncommittal, but raised his eyebrows and asked him to continue.
"Although the Yamaichi protest has disappeared, the remnants of the First Peace Conference still exist." Watanabe stared at him, "Chairman Tao should know what arrangements I have made since Fukumoto-san's incident appeared! "
Tao Zhiming said indifferently: "It's not what they did. Let them bear the burden, and it can't stand the scrutiny of the law."
"President Tao!" Watanabe narrowed his eyes, "If it's too much, don't you worry about the future of yourself and your relatives?"
"Tsk tsk tsk." After Tao Zhiming listened to him, he began to shake his head after watching him for a while, "I originally thought that your Excellency, as the person who quelled Shanyi's resistance, came to visit me through President Xiaolin after the previous incident. , You have enough awareness. Unexpectedly, you who came to me were actually planning to threaten me."
Watanabe squeezed his fist: "You and I have different ways, if you can..."
"No need!" Tao Zhiming interrupted him, still sitting, looking at the corner of his mouth with an indifferent smile, "Why, Watanabe-san should be like Fukumoto-san that day, please let me save face?"
Watanabe's face changed, thinking of Tao Zhiming's words that day: "What kind of person are you, do you need me to give you face?"
"President Tao!" Watanabe said sharply, "The plan I want to propose will be of great benefit to you! Even the Inagawa Society will not refuse!"
Tao Zhiming smiled and pinched his fingers: "The layout is too small. In your eyes, is this always the only way you know me?"
After speaking, he turned on his watch: "This is the last chance, one hour and nine minutes."
Watanabe's face was flushed red, and his subordinates suddenly slapped the table and stood up: "Baga! You boy, what the hell..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden muffled sound.
From behind the paper-pasted wooden door, the gunshot with a silencer scared Kobayashi Naoki to the ground with his head in his arms.
In his line of sight, Watanabe's subordinates, who were about to run away just now, had already collapsed beside the table with bewildered and inexplicable eyes.
The center of his brows is starting to look brighter from one point on.
Watanabe's face changed suddenly, and he watched this scene in disbelief. He picked the short table in the room with his fingers, but he didn't dare to move.
It's not that he doesn't have a weapon, but sure enough... he's crazy today.
Why did you come here like this after experiencing the Fukumoto incident?
Watanabe was extremely confused, what exactly does this guy want?Isn't it a benefit?
Or, what he said is really true, the layout is too small?In his eyes, the benefits he was going to use to persuade him were not worth mentioning, and he could even kill his most capable subordinates in front of him?
"Wow—"
The wooden door was pushed open, and a person stepped out of it.
Watanabe looked over, and his pupils shrank suddenly.
In front of that person, Tao Zhiming turned his back to a gun and asked with a smile, "This last chance, Watanabe-san, have you figured out how to grasp it?"
Watanabe was sweating profusely, looked at the man and muttered to himself: "Impossible, this is impossible..."
Suddenly, countless thoughts swirled from his mind.
Why is he here?
If he is here, what is the relationship between Tao Dalang and Horikawa Nobuhiko?
He was also involved in a large sum of money from the First Quanye Bank!
It took months for the entire Yamaguchi-gumi to find him, and Nobuhiko Horikawa showed himself the cash recovered from him.
If it wasn't for the evidence Horikawa Nobuhiko showed him, how could Watanabe come to Tao Zhiming so bravely, thinking he could convince this man?
Now that Nobuhiko Horikawa got the money, Toya Sakamoto...how could he still be alive?
Toya Sakamoto, who was holding a gun, looked at Watanabe, and the muzzle of the gun was the same.
On the floor, Watanabe, the most loyal subordinate, was silent.
Watanabe seemed to have lost his mind and couldn't say a word.
Question marks floated out of his head.
Tao Zhiming sighed: "So you didn't think about anything, so why did you come to me?"
"...President Tao..." Watanabe raised his hand and stretched out his palm to face him, as if he had realized something and wanted to resist his fate.
But then, Toya Sakamoto moved his finger.
Kobayashi Naoki's body shook again, and he inevitably wet his pants.
In his line of sight, the dignified Fifth Generation of the Yamaguchi-gumi suddenly collapsed in front of him with his subordinate, and twitched twice.
Kobayashi Naoki collapsed, raised his hands and knelt on the ground: "President Tao! President Tao! I don't know anything!"
A warm voice sounded next to my ear: "President Xiao Lin, I believe you, you really don't know anything. Don't interfere with the aftermath here, let's change the room and continue talking."
When Naoki Kobayashi stood up tremblingly and left the room trembling with his legs, he saw Toya Sakamoto, who had committed the murder just now, kneeling at the door of the room with his hands behind his head.
And in the restaurant courtyard, many policemen rushed into it.
They completely ignored Tao Zhiming and Kobayashi Naoki, went straight and handcuffed Sakamoto Toya, and then entered the room.
Photographed, sampled, meticulous.
Kobayashi Naoki was terrified, and couldn't help but look up at the back of Tao Zhiming who was defenseless in front of him.
This figure is unrestrained and unrestrained, as if walking in the courtyard of his own house, and the policemen next to him are just following along.
The Five Generations of the Yamaguchi-gumi...so suddenly...
This is crazy, what the hell is going on here?
"crunch-"
The door of another room was opened, Kobayashi Naoki saw Takagi Renpachi and Horikawa Nobuhiko sitting in it, and the head of the Itochu family was also present.
Seeing them coming in, Ito Tadayuki couldn't help asking: "The gunshot just now..."
Tao Zhiming smiled all over his face: "Ito Chu-san should believe my sincerity now, right? Watanabe is dead."
Itoh Chu Xingbei's expression changed drastically: "What?"
Tao Zhiming looked at Nobuhiko Horikawa with a smile: "The fight within the Yamaguchi-gumi, Sakamoto Toya shot and killed Watanabe and his assistant, this afternoon, Ito Tada-san will see the news. Do I still need to lie to you? "
Horikawa Nobuhiko's expression was normal, but deep fear flashed in his eyes.
I just agreed yesterday that I can freely arrange the family home, and I told myself today: Takaki Renba only listens to him, will even Sakamoto Toya choose to take the blame first?
The Yamaguchi-gumi has no leader, and the Kansai polar road will be in chaos.How many people will be affected by the arrests that have already started at this moment?
If I still have a different heart, there will be another clue spreading from Sakamoto Toya to myself from now on!
Takagi Renpachi felt cold all over his body, was it for this day that he left Sakamoto Toya's life behind?
In the era he dominated, a new sacrifice was added.
Chapter 546: I wanted to be in the same place, but in exchange for my father
Naoki Kobayashi's pants were wet.
In the room, everyone has a higher status than him.
But that's not why he can bear such a gaffe, but still sit here and watch the shame smell from his crotch.
There was only one real reason: Tao Zhiming didn't ask him to tidy up or change his clothes.
The fifth generation of the dignified Yamaguchi-gumi and his most powerful subordinates were killed so suddenly in front of him, and then the people of the Metropolitan Police Department skillfully and tacitly cleaned up the scene, which broke Naoki Kobayashi's heart.
Kohei Ito is here, Nobuhiko Horikawa and Hitohachi Takagi are here.
