Japanese Entertainment: From special effects actor to action superstar

Chapter 53 Cadres, Nijima Tatsumi

When Gu Ming and Wan Gujie arrived, it was already evening. The sky was dark with a layer of reflected crimson.

The game room was so noisy that people couldn't hear each other's voices. Wan Gujie hugged the paper bag of money tightly and moved closer to Gu Ming, as if being closer to Gu Ming would make him feel more secure.

After turning the corridor, the sounds outside seemed to disappear in an instant, and the two sides of the corridor seemed like two different worlds.

One side was filled with the noisy sounds of the players, while the other side was eerily quiet.

As soon as Wan Gujie stood still, he was startled by the Yakuza lined up on both sides.

Two Yakuza who looked less than twenty years old were whispering something to each other. They jumped off the box only after seeing Gu Ming and the others.

"Are you here to deliver money? Go inside."

The two casually pointed to the "staff lounge" inside, where a sign clearly stated "No Entry".

Seeing Wangujie's frightened look, the two Yakuza burst into laughter.

"Look at him."

"You're not going to piss yourself because you're scared!"

"Hey!!"

One of them suddenly stomped his feet forward, as if to strike.

Wan Gujie screamed and subconsciously raised his hand to block it, and then he realized belatedly that he didn't seem to be beaten.

This action caused the surrounding Yakuza to burst into laughter again.

Wan Gujie's face flushed red, but he didn't dare to look up. He just lowered his head, holding the paper bag, and followed Gu Ming closely.

The two of them went into the staff lounge together.

Gu Ming calmed down and saw Nakajima Haruo with his hands and feet tied up, huddled beside the sofa like a quail.

Yakuza, who was obviously the leader, was sitting on the coffee table, dressed in a suit and tie, with shiny leather shoes, and his toes tapping the ground rhythmically.

However, even this leader, Yakuza, still looks very young.

Someone quickly ran up to the leader and whispered something.

"Oh? You're finally here."

The leader stood up and pulled Nakajima Haruo up and looked at Gu Ming.

"You." The leader casually touched Nakajima Haruo's face and said, "Open your eyes and take a good look. Who are these two people?"

Nakajima Haruo barely recognized Gu Ming and the other person before speaking.

"That person is Wan Gujie, a member of the Wan Gu family."

The chief nodded, looking as if he understood. "Not bad, you actually sent your sons here. That's quite sincere. So, what about that guy over there?"

"Furuya Akira, he is..."

Nakajima Haruo suddenly stopped, and a strong idea emerged in his mind.

He's already in this state, if he can drag another person into this...

But this hesitation only lasted for a moment, and Nakajima Haruo finally shook his head.

"It's irrelevant, just an actor."

"Actors? Actors are boring."

The leader shook his head, then let go of Nakajima Haruo and turned to Gu Ming and the others.

"Well, let's get straight to the point. My name is 'Nijima Tatsumi', currently serving as a member of the Okayama Group. Luckily, I've been chosen by the team leader to guard this place."

He then nodded at Nakajima Haruo and said, "This guy actually broke such an expensive machine. He has to pay for it properly! Bring the compensation, everyone."

Gu Ming looked at Wan Gujie, but Wan Gujie held the paper bag tightly in his arms and did not respond for a long time.

Helplessly, Gu Ming could only snatch the paper bag from his arms and throw it to Tatsumi Nijima in front of him.

Tatsumi Nijima grabbed it and took a quick look.

100,000 yen is not very heavy, and the bills in the paper bag can be seen clearly at a glance.

He didn't even look at it carefully and threw it to the people behind him.

The subordinate quickly counted the money and nodded, "One hundred thousand yen."

"Very good, very good, that's how business works. Now we're done with the money and the goods."

Tatsumi Nijima waved his hand casually, and his subordinates took out a knife, cut the rope, and pushed Nakajima Haruo over.

Gu Ming took it and asked Wan Gujie to support him.

"Thank you for your patronage. I'm very grateful. Please come again next time."

Tatsumi Nijima bowed slightly and said this, as if Gu Ming and the others were just coming to the convenience store to buy drinks, not to redeem anyone.

Gu Ming said nothing, or rather, he was not someone who wanted to deal with Yakuzado.

"Let's go."

Gu Ming said this, pulled up Wan Gujie, who was already a little stiff, and supported Nakajima Haruo as they walked outside.

The door to the staff room was opened, and the two Yakuza came in laughing.

They looked into each other's eyes and smiled again.

Suddenly, one of them grabbed a baton and started waving it at Wan Gujie.

The rattling sound of the baton made Wan Gujie even more frightened, fearing that the baton would fall on him at the next moment.

"He's so useless!"

"Check to see if you've peed your pants!"

"what……"

The teasing voice made Wan Gujie feel a little angry.

The deal had clearly been made and they had delivered the money as agreed, so why were they still humiliating him!

Wan Gujie clenched his fists, wanting to leave a fist mark on the laughing face in front of him.

But the next moment, Wan Gujie woke up.

Because Gu Ming's hand had already fallen on his shoulder.

"Don't be impulsive, you guys go first." "Brother Gugu..."

Wan Gujie swallowed and wanted to say something else, but Gu Ming urged him to leave first.

He seemed to understand what was going on and supported Nakajima Haruo as they walked outside along the corridor.

Gu Ming also took a few steps, but stopped.

"The deal has already been made, yet you still do this to humiliate others. What? Is this your idea of righteousness?"

Nijima Tatsumi suddenly looked up and looked at Gu Ming.

Before he could speak, his men became angry.

"You guy, you still don't leave, do you want to get beaten?"

The baton hit Gu Ming's ear with a sound of breaking wind.

"Yamanaka!"

Tatsumi Nijima shouted, as if to stop him, but it was too late, the baton had already hit Gu Ming's ear.

However, the baton did not fall on Gu Ming in the end, because the next moment, Shan Zhong was lying on the ground with his hands covering his stomach.

It seemed like a random punch, but it made him feel as if he had been hit by a truck.

Gu Ming weighed the baton in his hand. It was made of metal and was just the right weight. If he swung it out, with the help of potential energy, the power would be very suitable for hitting someone.

As soon as Nijima Tatsumi finished speaking, the baton was snatched away and Yamanaka was lying on the ground.

Now that he had calmed down and seen the scene clearly, he jumped up instantly.

At this moment, the surrounding Yakuza also picked up batons, baseball bats, and even daggers and gradually surrounded them.

"Stop it, let them go!"

Tatsumi Nijima frowned, but stopped the Yakuza from doing anything.

"The deal is over, but if Yamanaka still wants to take action, it would be a violation of our righteousness! If this gets out, how will the Okayama Clan survive in the future?"

Those light words actually restrained these Yakuza.

Benevolence, righteousness, and justice.

If it is changed into the Chinese context, it means "morality and rules".

Those who break the rules will not be able to gain a foothold among the Yakuza.

Gu Ming shook his head slightly, his expression neither sarcastic nor contemptuous. He simply tossed the baton carelessly, his heel swishing it through the air in a smooth circle before landing in his right hand. Seizing the momentum, Gu Ming swung it, pinning it to the door panel, the end still trembling.

At the end of the corridor, Wan Gujie was supporting Nakajima Haruo, his body shaking constantly.

Not a thrill of fear, but a thrill of excitement.

Gu Ming just hurried to catch up and urged twice: "Let's go."

……

……

After Gu Ming left, Nijima Tatsumi's face darkened and he ordered everyone to take the baton off the door panel.

"How on earth did you do that?!"

Tatsumi Nijima suddenly threw the baton and tried to lift it up with his heel, but his kick missed.

I tried several times but still couldn't do it.

"Even I can't do it, how on earth did he do it!"

Tatsumi Nijima rubbed his eyes, still a little confused.

He has studied in many dojos and practiced martial arts every day. He believes that he has a solid foundation and is a well-known fighter in the Okayama group.

but.

Tatsumi Nijima tried the kick several times but couldn't do it at all.

"Damn it..." Tatsumi Nijima clenched his hands, his face full of confusion.

How on earth did they do that?

Do all actors nowadays have such strong martial arts skills?

Then again, he originally came to Tokyo with the intention of becoming an actor.

Tatsumi Nishima developed a deep interest in martial arts at the age of sixteen after watching a martial arts film by the famous actor Shinichi Chiba on TV.

Hearing that Chiba Shinichi had set up a 'JAC Club' for the purpose of training action actors, the high school dropout Tatsumi Nijima ran to Tokyo with his dream, hoping to be able to enroll in JAC for further training. However, he was cheated of all his money and could not even find the door to JAC. He was penniless and lived on the streets, and was eventually taken in by the Okayama Group.

After that, with his daring and fighting personality, Nijima Tatsumi formed a cadre in Okayama, and the leader of the Okayama group changed his surname to Nijima, and that was Nijima Tatsumi.

If he had not been cheated out of all his money, he might have joined JAC and become an actor as great as Shinichi Chiba.

Tatsumi Nijima loosened his tie, feeling inexplicably annoyed.

But then again.

I really can’t get used to wearing this crappy suit.

Looking at the several Wakashu around him and Wakashu Sanchu who had just crawled up from the ground, Nijima Tatsumi suddenly raised a finger.

"The deal is over. This time, it was us who violated the principles of benevolence and justice, so naturally, there is nothing to say. Don't bother Wan Gu in the future."

"But there's still one thing that's not over yet!"

"That guy, when he hit Yamanaka, he was hitting our Okayama Group in the face!"

"This account must be settled with him!"

Ruo Zhongshan suddenly felt a little grateful, and couldn't help wiping his eyes and looking at Nijima Tatsumi.

"Big Brother Nijiaben..."

Nijima Tatsumi shook his head and said, "Don't say anything unnecessary. Don't take any action for the next few days. Follow him and find out his background! When the time is right, I will take action myself!"

Nijima Tatsumi cracked his finger joints.

Of course, you have to do it yourself.

Seeing such exquisite martial arts, even his long-lost heart was about to burn with excitement!
