Chapter 765: Found
The call between Hiroshi Shitsuno and Okami was quick and simple, and he soon hung up the phone with joy.
He cursed, “God damn it, just wait. Wait till I get back and kill them all.”
Xu Cheng suddenly turned his head to look at Hiroshi Shitsuno and said suddenly, “I heard that you have done a lot of things in Huaxia.”
In order to make Okami’s side pay more attention to himself, Hiroshi Shitsuno said proudly, “Of course. I gathered three out of the Four Gates, and Shangcheng would have to pay heed to anything I say. To provide a good environment for the consortiums later, I’ve managed to buy out most of the tycoons and corporations, and have a say over the stocks, taxes, and other products. We could infiltrate into the Huaxia market by forming collaborations with these corporations. If the entire Shangcheng Chamber of Commerce wanted to collaborate with the Wei Nation consortiums, then the Huaxia government is unlikely to oppose. By then, it would be a matter of time before we infiltrate Huaxia, and with the consortium’s funds, we would be able to destroy their financial system easily.”
Xu Cheng nodded silently. “You are not afraid of being targeted?”
“By who? That stupid bunch of cops in Huaxia? Or the Interpol? Are you kidding me? Interpol listens to Mr. Okami, and as for the Huaxia police officers, they don’t even know the whole story yet. By the time they find out, Huaxia would probably have Shangcheng as its main financial market with our consortiums behind it. Once we pull everything out, let’s see who’s going to fill the huge gap. It would be the Huaxia government, and if they just sit back and wait, then it would lead to a financial crisis; if they intervene, then their government funding will become tight, which means that their military budget will shrink. In an era like this where they’re competing with the M Nation, technological advancement is very critical. On top of that, the consortium could at least gain 20% profit from pulling out as well.”
Xu Cheng changed the subject and asked, “Do you think you can calm the other two heads’ supporters once you become the successor?”
Hiroshi Shitsuno said, “We all want to live, and once I finish these two off, I can convince those supporters with my iron fist and my rightful position as the successor. If they still want to be in this business, then they will certainly not go against me for someone who’s already dead.”
Xu Cheng nodded. “Then if you die, will your supporters fight the other two gangs?”
Hiroshi Shitsuno was a little unsure. “If I died, they definitely wouldn’t.”
Xu Cheng smiled. “Then what if they don’t know that you’re dead, they just think you’re missing, and suspect you’re being held hostage by the other two? Will they fight the other two gangs? With your steady position as the next successor, they must think that supporting you right now would mean something in the future. With this premise, those who are ambitious will definitely resist against them, and I’m guessing that there will be those who use this as an excuse to take control of the group in chaos.”
“That’s a possibility, so I must go to see Mr. Okami first and listen to his follow-up arrangements.” Hiroshi Shitsuno suddenly froze and looked at Xu Cheng as he said, “What do you mean by that?”
Xu Cheng suddenly revealed a wry smile. “What do you think I mean?”
Hiroshi Shitsuno looked serious as his pupils constricted and he got ready to get out of the car.
But Xu Cheng punched directly to his head, almost ripping it apart from his body.
Matsushima Raiko, who was driving, screamed in shock and subconsciously stepped on the gas pedal. She turned her head and saw Hiroshi Shitsuno lying on the seat, with his neck broken as his head wobbled on the seat as if it were hung by a string.
It was not the first time Matsushima Raiko saw a dead person, but this was very sudden without another word.
“Didn’t… didn’t you just rescue him?”
Xu Cheng sat in the back seat, crossing his legs with one arm resting on the window, as he looked out at the scenery and said, “It’s not like you don’t know what I saved him for. He should’ve died long ago, but I kept him only to cause chaos in the Sanko Group. With a size of 30,000 members, if they go into war with each other, it will in turn cause chaos in the entire country, causing it to enter a state of emergency. Since when have I not done something big after I come to this country?”
It was hard to see what expression he had under the hood. He looked at Matsushima Raiko and said, “Keep driving. The game has just begun, and you should know the next stop.”
Matsushima Raiko’s hands were trembling. “You… you are really going to kill Okami?”
Xu Cheng raised his hood. Although his face still could not be seen, Matsushima Raiko hurriedly turned her head in fear as she continued driving.
On the way to their next destination, Xu Cheng said to her, “If you want to live, help me finish one thing.”
“What, what?” Matsushima Raiko sounded scared.
“Hide this corpse and wait for my call. When I give the signal, hang him naked in front of the Sanko Headquarters,” Xu Cheng ordered.
Matsushima Raiko’s body trembled. “What exactly do you want to do?”
Xu Cheng said word for word, “Nothing. I hate self-righteous people, and Hiroshi Shitsuno stretched his hands out too long. Not only him, but I’ll get rid of the entire Sanko group! I can tell you that I caused the internal chaos in the Sanko group, and I saved Hiroshi Shitsuno so I could find out where Okami is. Okami’s whereabouts are more mysterious than the Prime Minister, so I had to save Hiroshi Shitsuno to know. Now his corpse’s only value is to ignite the ultimate fight between the three divisions in the Sanko Group.”
Matsushima Raiko’s body shivered. “I’m afraid I can’t do it well.”
Xu Cheng walked out of the car. “You will do a good job. I am not negotiating with you. You will pay for your actions if you can’t do it well.”
Having said that, Xu Cheng walked away.
He went to the airport for a flight to Tokyo.
Time was short, and a big businessman like Okami was mysterious and usually flew around. So Xu Cheng didn’t bother to ask Matsushima Raiko to drop him off.
He came to Tokyo and took a cab to a rich residential district.
Everywhere was guarded by security guards, and there were even trained dogs at the entrance.
Every villa here was worth a hundred million dollars! Yet this was just one of Okami’s residences in Tokyo.
When Xu Cheng became invisible, a few dogs sniffed him and barked at the air. However, they were chained up in daylight, and soon quieted down after the security guard fed them a few bones.
Xu Cheng then used his penetrating vision to search for Okami from one villa to the other.
It was not difficult to discover his house, because among these residences, his property was considered quite unique with a huge courtyard connecting three villas. Everyone would immediately know it was his villa with its luxurious look and the number of bodyguards around.
Okami was playing golf in the backyard, and a maid was holding up an umbrella for him. He was surrounded by a group of Blackwater’s bodyguards, and a swordsman with a samurai sword was even right beside him.
Xu Cheng took another look at the swordsman and noticed that he was an R-rank expert, which meant that Okami’s status in the Capital Society was quite high.
In fact, the dozens of security guards around the villa were all unnecessary, because this one swordsman would be enough.
But they had to maintain a tycoon’s image.
Xu Cheng looked around the courtyard which was set up with surveillance and an intelligent defense system, so that even a fly would be detected. Even if Xu Cheng was invisible to the eyes, he would still be detected. Therefore, he stood outside the entrance and kicked a rock towards the thick iron gate.
After a sound was made, the person monitoring the area informed the security guards at the front yard. “There is a situation outside the gate, go see who is knocking on the door.”
A security guard nodded and went over to open the gate. He swept his card and the intelligent defence system recognized him as one of their own. That was when Xu Cheng brushed past him and walked smoothly into the courtyard as he headed towards the backyard.
The security guards around the area were meaningless and none of them saw him.
Xu Cheng was also very careful as he looked around to see if there were other similar detectors to avoid being exposed by them.
The moment he stepped into the backyard, the swordsman suddenly opened his eyes as if he noticed something and glanced at the backyard entrance.
He frowned when he saw nothing was there.
Okami looked at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“I seem to have detected an unusual presence.” The swordsman glared at the air around him and shouted with certainty, “Stop hiding and come out!”
