On the edge of the Park, the Observation Deck was not decorated with Colored Lights. Small Lamps for night Illumination were placed on the Steps leading up, but the Platform itself was Pitch Black.
Chi Feichei stood on the edge of the Platform, looking at the Lamplight Below.
Feichi also crawled halfway out of his Collar, wrapped around Chi Feichei's Neck in a Circle, and looked at the Lights with him. "Master, I Saw a Colored Light in the shape of an Orca. Is that a Shark Next to it? The Orca Colored Light is okay, Feichi is already this cute, but the Shark seems to have been beautified too much, right?"
Chi Feichei Looked at the Animal Colored Lights over There. "Feichi currently has a Small Shark under her."
He Understood Feichi too well. Everything from his own Ho was Good; as Long As he had it, it was cute.
Indeed, Feichi tried to Recall. "I Suddenly Realized Sharks are also quite cute. They Look chubby, and their Small Eyes are particularly full of spirit. This Colored Light Appearance is quite similar..."
Chi Feichei: "..."
See?
"There's also an Octopus..." Feichi peered at the Colored Lights Below. "Master, why don't we Go Together to See? The Octopus Seen from Here is too far away."
"If you get too close, the Colored Lights will blind your Eyes instead," Chi Feichei heard the Footsteps on the Steps behind him lighten again, Turned Around to Look, and said softly, "The Pattern you See won't be this Clear and bright."
Only Then did Feichi Rember that they weren't Here to See the Illumination Festival; they had Serious Business. It imdiately propped up its Head, trying to make its Gaze Serious.
It had to help its Master hold the fort!
Xiao i led Yashiro Enzaburo to the Observation Deck. Looking up, she Saw Feichi's Gaze was Cold and Dangerous, occasionally flicking its Snake Tongue Flick, and felt a bit scared. "Master, Mr. Yashiro Enzaburo has arrived."
The Yashiro Family People All weren't short. Entaro Yashiro was over seventy, tall and sturdy, with a straight Body Shape, his Hair combed back, looking full of ntal State, Seemingly only in his fifties. Yashiro Enzaburo was also not short, with a solid Body Shape, but at this mont, he stood Behind Xiao i with his Lower Head, like a bullied daughter-in-law, Pondering how he should Open his Mouth Better.
Seeing that Yashiro Enzaburo didn't actively Ask, Chi Feichei followed his own Communication thod and went Straight to the Matter. "Mr. Enzaburo, I apologize for inviting you Here in this thod, But I want to tell you that Entaro Yashiro and Yashiro Takie are about to die..."
Yashiro Enzaburo listened to that Young, Calm Male Voice utter Words similar to a Curse, yet also like a Prophecy, and quietly swallowed his Saliva.
No Need to apologize to him, Really, Just don't scare him, That's Enough...
"After they die, I Hope you can seize the Inheritance Right of the Yashiro Conglorate. I will help you with the specifics," Chi Feichei walked towards Yashiro Enzaburo. "After you take office, I Hope you can Cooperate and let the Shinchi Group... or rather, Umbrella, gradually swallow the Yashiro Group."
With Xiao i Following, Yashiro Enzaburo wouldn't bring Recording Tools. Feichi didn't Remind him, which Indicated that Yashiro Enzaburo didn't have Electronic Devices operating. Coupled with the Crows scattered throughout the Park not Reminding them, it Indicated that Yashiro Enzaburo Indeed ca Alone.
Choosing to wait for Yashiro Enzaburo at the Observation Deck deep in the Park, besides it Indeed being the Best Location to See the Lights, was also to let the Crows Confirm that After Yashiro Enzaburo entered the Park, there were no 'Loose Ends' Following Behind him.
There was no Need to Worry about Others hearing these Words; he could Speak Directly.
"Shinchi Group?" Yashiro Enzaburo looked up in surprise, Staring at the Young Man in front of him who was even Taller than him. Although he was Just wearing All Black Plainclothes, the Calmness and Indifference Aura he exuded were still Repression. His very Young Face, reflecting so Illumination Lamp Light, had Purple Eyes. "You, you are Ike... Ike..."
ntioning the Shinchi Group, combined with the Appearance of the Person in front of him, the first Person he thought of was the Future Successor of the Shinchi Group - Ike... Ike what was it again?
His Boss had Always been Guarding Against them. He rarely had Contact with People from other Financial Groups and Groups. He had heard about the Chi Family's Only Son, and vaguely heard the Na, But that was more than ten years Before. In these years, the Chi Family's Only Son had never appeared in any Report. He Indeed had forgotten.
"Chi Feichei, My Na."
Chi Feichei continued, "As Long As you agree, I will not Take Action against you or your Family mbers, and I can also Guarantee that After the Matter is done, you or your Family mbers will have Enough Affluent Life for a Lifeti."
Yashiro Enzaburo felt the Information was too much; he needed to slow down. But Chi Feichei stood in front of him, Staring at him the entire Ti, making it impossible for him to Calm down completely. He kept his Lower Head and Hesitated, "But, But Even If I inherit the Yashiro Conglorate, it's not sothing I alone can decide..."
"You don't Need to Worry about those things. You will know what to do Then."
Chi Feichei knew Yashiro Enzaburo's Concerns.
Correct, Even If he beca the President, the Yashiro Conglorate wouldn't be sothing Yashiro Enzaburo alone could decide. However, the President had a Bit more Right.
If the President made a decision that hard the Yashiro Conglorate's Benefit, the decision would still be rejected. At the Sa Ti, the President's Position might Not Necessarily be stable. There were So Many People in the Yashiro Family; soone could Always be pushed into the Position.
This was also the Reason why this thod couldn't be used on other Financial Groups. Firstly, the Energy and Connections owned by Financial Groups were Enough to give the People of the leading Family/Clan Confidence, and they wouldn't be scared by any Monster or Ghost. It was Just that Yashiro Enzaburo had been suppressed too much and felt that neither his Boss nor the Financial Group would help him, which made him so easily influenced. Secondly, it was Because Financial Groups weren't decided by one Person.
Compared to Chi Shinnosuke's strong Control over the Shinchi Group, other Financial Groups might be much Better than the chaotic Fielder Group Before, But they definitely couldn't be considered a one-man show.
"Also... Even If my Boss and Takie both have an Incident," Yashiro Enzaburo hesitated, "The Successor also includes Takie's Child and my Second Brother. It might Not Necessarily be my turn..."
"Entaro Yashiro and Yashiro Takie have both left Wills that have been sealed by Find People. The Successor they chose is Yashiro Takie's Son who is currently studying Overseas," Chi Feichei's soft Voice was Still Calm, Just Like the low whispers of a Demon. "But as Long As you agree, it will be you."
Yashiro Enzaburo's Heartbeat Suddenly skipped a beat. He Realized that he could sit in the President's Position of the Yashiro Conglorate, Even If it was to sell the Yashiro Conglorate, he would still have sat in it.
Moreover, living under his Boss's thumb in the past and Present, and living under Others' thumb in the Future, it wouldn't be worse than Now, right...
He secretly glanced at Xiao i standing Aside quietly. That terrifying Appearance made Yashiro Enzaburo's Heart tremble. He Understood. Although the Other Party was very Polite, he was not Discussing with him at all.
Being able to command Ghosts from the Heian Period, this... this one from the Chi Family was already Ominous Enough. Perhaps he was a Reincarnation of a Great Demon/Evil, or a Great Demon/Evil of the new Era. In any case, the Future would not be peaceful.
If he refused, he would definitely not have a Good Fruit to eat.
Conversely, if he had the Opportunity to pledge allegiance to the 'Great Demon/Evil', he might be able to protect himself, protect his Family mbers, and gain so Benefit. At least the Other Party needed him, so he wouldn't have to Worry about being killed by the Female Ghost anymore.
As For the Yashiro Conglorate...
After his Boss took office, the Yashiro Conglorate, for him and his Second Brother's Ho, was no longer the Financial Group that could be their backing and for which they were willing to dedicate themselves, as it was when their Father was in office. The Yashiro Family had long since been divided into his Boss's Ho and their two Hos, who were classified as 'Rice Bugs' and 'Threats'.
Then, whether as Minions of the Demon or Minions of Calamity, protecting Oneself is Always Correct.
"O-Okay," Yashiro Enzaburo wiped the Sweat from his Head, trying to make himself Look Serious. "Please rest assured, I will Cooperate with you!"
Chi Feichei Observed Yashiro Enzaburo, feeling that it was Unlikely he was using a delaying tactic to deceive him. He felt a Bit Suspicion that Xiao i had scared the Person silly. "You Go Back first. When it's Ti to Take Action, soone will Notify you. I Hope you won't do any Subtle Moves Behind my back."
"I won't!" Yashiro Enzaburo imdiately gave his Promise, and then Tested, "Then... I'll Go?"
Xiao i floated to Yashiro Enzaburo's Side, indicating that Yashiro Enzaburo shouldn't dawdle, and said in a chilling Voice, "I'll see you off."
"Uh, Okay," Yashiro Enzaburo Hesitated A Bit, but still didn't ntion to Chi Feichei not to let the Ghost scare him. "Thank You for the trouble."
Xiao i floated down the Steps. "You're welco. We will have many more Opportunities to et in the Future."
Yashiro Enzaburo: "..."
He didn't Hope to et again, Thank You.
Xiao i saw Yashiro Enzaburo off to the bottom of the Steps, then stopped and Turned Around to float up the Steps. "I'm Going to Report back. Also, Master dislikes Others being long-winded."
Yashiro Enzaburo Sweat A Bit. After Xiao i left, he let out a long sigh of relief. Looking up at the Observation Deck Above again, he felt a sense of unreality. But Looking at the Pitch Black Night Sky Above, he felt a Bit Cold Tonight. He withdrew his Line of Sight and Speed Up Pace towards the Park.
On the Observation Deck, Chi Feichei was Arranging the Follow-up.
Looking at Yashiro Enzaburo's Appearance, he didn't have any Haki or resilience befitting the Younger Brother of a Financial Group Family Head.
It was Unlikely that such a Person could beco the President of the Yashiro Conglorate without help.
However, he also had to Guard Against Yashiro Enzaburo acting. At least he had to Guarantee that Yashiro Enzaburo wouldn't side with Entaro Yashiro, or that Yashiro Enzaburo himself harbored ill intentions.
"Feimo, have the Birds Monitor his and his Family mbers' Movent. If there is any unusual Action, Contact imdiately. If I leave Tokyo and board the Cruise Ship, Contact Noah."
"Noah, tell My Father the Situation and have Ark Formulate the Best plan for him to take office and gradually swallow the Group. At the Sa Ti, Monitor his Mobile Phone Movent. If he Contacts soone he shouldn't Contact, cut off his Call/Conversation. If he shows Traces of Loss of Control, Warn him once. If he needs to be Eliminated, Contact the Communications Office at Fifteenth Night Castle and have the Golden Eagle Warrior Co Over..."
Seeing Xiao i return, Chi Feichei added, "Xiao i, Monitor for a few more Days. Don't show yourself in front of him. When the Cruise Ship sets sail, I will take you onto the Cruise Ship."
"Understood, Master." Xiao i replied in a chilling Voice.
Feimo flew off the Platform, cawing, and began to Distribute Tasks.
Chi Feichei took out his Mobile Phone and Looked at the Ti. He Turned Around and went to the edge of the viewing Platform, planning to blow the Cooling Night Breeze for a while longer.
Three-thirty Early Morning.
Another Day of sleeping late and waking late, But the Investigation at Hand was basically Handled. Now he just had to wait for the Cruise Ship to set sail. After returning, he would wait to Go Together with Organization mbers to cause trouble. In the short term, he wouldn't be busy with anything.
Then, Tomorrow he could send the extra Boarding Pass to the Mori Detective Agency...
