Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Chapter 482 Send Mitsui Morio to Hell and Meet Lee Kun-hee
Northeast of Tokyo, at the foot of Mount Tenran, more than 20 kilometers from the city center, a Japanese-style house with a black roof and white walls appears and disappears in the dense forest.

In the night, the lights inside the mansion shine through the Japanese-style grille door, appearing hazy.

This is the residence where Morio Mitsui lived.

When many people talk about Tokyo's wealthy areas, the first thing that comes to mind is: Akasaka area.

Many presidents and senior executives of large companies live there. It is said that one out of every seven people is the company owner.

The price of residential land in the Akasaka area is as high as 550 million yen per square meter (27 yuan).

But this is just the limited imagination of ordinary people about the rich.

How could the truly wealthy crowd into cities and live in an urban jungle of reinforced concrete?

This is too embarrassing.

Rich people with assets exceeding 500 billion yen will choose to build their own luxurious Japanese-style mansions in beautiful suburban areas.

The mansion must occupy a large area and have several entrances.

The floors of the house must not be too high. Two floors are the limit. Any higher will not conform to Japanese aesthetics.

The environment must be good. There must be mountains, water, and trees outside the house. Inside the house, there must be a pond, bluestone paths, and rockery...

If they cannot meet this standard, Japan's top billionaires would be embarrassed to invite friends to their homes.

Morio Mitsui's residence is definitely the best of the best.

On a big locust tree outside the mansion, Lin Yuan and Betty sat at the intersection of the trunks.

Lin Yuan used the telescope in his hand to constantly observe the direction of the mountain path, waiting for the target to appear.

"According to the intelligence, Morio Mitsui has already left the Mitsui Group building in Tokyo and is on his way back to his residence. He should arrive in a few minutes," Betty said.

"I understand. As long as he shows up, we will definitely not be able to escape this disaster." Lin Yuan replied.

"Compared to using 'poison pills', I still feel that using a flying knife is safer and can guarantee a fatal blow," Betty said.

Lin Yuan rolled his eyes and complained, "You stabbed their master to death with a flying knife in front of the Mitsui family's security personnel. And then you expect me to take you out of this mountainous area without being caught by the Mitsui family's security personnel.

All while dodging roadside cameras and making your way back to Tokyo on foot?
Even if I were to act alone, it would be nearly impossible to do this."

What Lin Yuan was talking about was exactly the difficulty of tonight's operation.

This is not North America. Once a vehicle's information is captured by road cameras, it is very difficult to destroy it silently.

In order to avoid this, the vehicle that Lin Yuan and Betty were riding in was parked in a secluded location 5 or 6 kilometers away from here.

If Lin Yuan used a throwing knife or any lethal weapon to kill Mitsui Shigeo, he would inevitably be surrounded by all the security personnel in the mansion.

Even Mitsui Group security personnel in Tokyo will come to reinforce here.

How could Lin Yuan take Betty and escape without leaving any evidence?

As he said, it would be difficult to do it even if he was alone.

Therefore, the only way to solve this problem is that Shigeo Mitsui cannot die immediately, and he must not even appear to be injured on the spot.

Can this be done?
The answer, of course, is to use poison.

"The target has appeared! On the mountain road, it will arrive at the door of the mansion in about 2 to 3 minutes. Get ready." Betty said while holding the telescope.

"I see."

After saying that, Lin Yuan took out a small box that looked like a jewelry box from his arms.

He opened it carefully and took out a crystal dart.

This dart is made entirely of glass. The glass wall is extremely thin, less than one millimeter, and it may break if touched with a little force.

"It's so beautiful." Betty couldn't help but reach out to touch it.

Lin Yuan slapped her hand away: "Are you trying to kill yourself? Don't you know how dangerous this thing is?"

"Fatal beauty is the most alluring," Betty exclaimed.

"If you throw this thing farther, only 0.1 ml is enough to kill someone." Lin Yuan gently held the glass dart in his palm, not daring to use any more force.

The glass dart is hollow and filled with dimethylmercury.

Many people know that mercury is highly toxic, and they also know about the "Minamata disease" that once occurred in Japan, which caused many patients to die in pain and despair.

But strictly speaking, the harm of elemental mercury is not particularly great. What is really scary is atomized mercury and organic mercury compounds.

Dimethylmercury is the most toxic and dangerous organic mercury compound.

Dimethylmercury is extremely volatile and has strong penetrating ability.

If you accidentally inhale even a little bit of volatile gas, it could be fatal.

If you drop it on your clothes, it can penetrate the fabric very quickly. Even the rubber gloves used for experiments can be penetrated in about 5 seconds, reaching the skin directly and being absorbed through the skin.

Once dimethylmercury enters the body, it is converted into methylmercury and immediately binds to proteins and peptides, allowing the heavy metal component to cross the blood-brain barrier and enter the brain directly.

The next step is to damage the nervous system and disrupt the immune system, hindering the synthesis of various proteins that are vital to the brain.

Because mercury is extremely difficult to metabolize and excrete in the human body, the poisoning caused by dimethylmercury is irreversible.

Once the disease enters the onset stage, patients can only watch helplessly as they continue to suffer from the pain without any effective treatment until they die in pain.

What’s even more terrifying is that dimethylmercury is colorless and odorless, and can be said to be the real-life version of “Tianyi Divine Water”. The victim has no perception of the poisoning.

People don't realize they've been poisoned until the incubation period of several weeks to months has passed and the brain and nervous system show symptoms.

This characteristic is perfectly suitable for Lin Yuan's actions tonight.

As long as he successfully threw the dart at Mitsui Shigeo, the glass shell would shatter immediately.

The dimethylmercury liquid will penetrate the surface of the clothing, penetrate into his skin, and be absorbed.

He will not die tonight, so Lin Yuan can escape calmly.

The symptoms will not appear until several weeks later, and by then he will be in endless pain and face death in despair.

Compared to killing him with a flying knife, using this method is truly satisfying.

It is worth mentioning that the culprit for the "Minamata disease" that caused mercury poisoning among a large number of people in Japan was the Japan Nitrogen Fertilizer Company.

The Japan Nitrogen Fertilizer Company is a subsidiary of the Mitsui Group.

It’s really God’s way of reincarnation, no one will be spared by God.

"The target has been reached!" said Betty.

The gate of the mansion opened and the black convoy carrying Morio Mitsui drove into the courtyard.

After the entire convoy entered the yard, the gate was closed again.

The security personnel got out of the car first, and then Shigeo Mitsui followed.

The target finally appeared in front of Lin Yuan.

"Okay, watch me." Lin Yuan replied.

In his right palm, he held the deadly glass dart and an ordinary stone.

Ordinary people simply cannot obtain dimethylmercury, a dangerous substance, and its high volatility makes its storage extremely dangerous.

The glass dart in Lin Yuan's hand was hastily made by Betty using the resources of the Adams family. There is only this one at present.

If Lin Yuan fails, he won't have a second chance.

At this time, the straight-line distance between him and Morio Mitsui was more than 90 meters.

Shooting with a pistol at this distance is completely inaccurate, and you need an assault rifle to accurately kill the target.

A few years ago, Lin Yuan's flying knife range was between 50 and 70 meters, which was already quite horrifying.

However, as his strength and agility attributes have continued to improve in recent years, the range of his flying knife has now reached more than 100 meters.

The distance of more than 90 meters tonight is not a problem for him at all.

Lin Yuan observed it for a moment and then took decisive action: the stone and the glass knife flew out of his hand together and headed straight for the target.

At this moment, Morio Mitsui was walking up the steps outside the mansion when suddenly a crisp sound was heard.

"Clang!"

A lamp under the eaves suddenly exploded, and glass flew everywhere.

At the same time, Shigeo Mitsui also felt something hit his back, but the force was not strong.

He reached out and touched his back, and the first feeling was a prickly sensation, like broken glass.

Was it the glass fragments from the lamp that fell on me just now?

The second thing I felt was that the space between my fingers touching my back seemed a little damp.

He held his finger up to his eyes; there was no color, nothing unusual.

Then he put his finger to his nose and there was no smell.

If I have to say, it smells a bit like sweat.

It is summer now after all, so maybe what you feel is your own sweat?

Shigeo Mitsui was completely unaware of the seriousness of the problem.

"Protect the president! Be alert all around!"

Although Morio Mitsui did not seem nervous, the security personnel around him immediately surrounded him.

The light bulb suddenly exploded. Who knows if it was a gunshot?
It's no wonder that the security personnel felt nervous. They surrounded Mitsui Shigeo and led him into the house.

One of the security guards came to the broken lamp and carefully checked the bulb and its surroundings.

No bullet holes or other traces were found, so the conclusion was drawn:
The light bulb broke naturally and it should have been just an accident.

The security team then raised the alarm and restored normalcy.

Lin Yuan and Betty saw this scene clearly through the telescope.

"No wonder you threw a stone to break the lampshade at the same time. Otherwise, a pile of broken glass would suddenly appear behind Mitsui Shigeo, which would definitely arouse his suspicion." Betty said.

"Besides the glass shards, the amount of dimethylmercury used shouldn't be too large, otherwise a large area wet would arouse his suspicion. I was worried about the dosage being insufficient, even though only 0.1 ml can be fatal, but there are always unexpected consequences."

"After seeing him touch his back directly with his hand, I stopped worrying. He was simply courting death," Lin Yuan replied.

"It was perfect, everything went smoothly, we didn't attract the attention of security personnel and were able to leave safely," said Betty.

"Yes, in three or four weeks, when Mitsui Shigeo starts to get sick and is diagnosed with mercury poisoning in the hospital, he might remember what happened tonight. But by then, it will be impossible to trace it back to us," Lin Yuan replied.

The two jumped down from the tree while talking.

As he walked, Lin Yuan carefully cleared away his footprints with a broom made of leaves.

In fact, we are being a little too cautious. In three or four weeks, all traces will be erased by nature. If it rains again, there will be no danger of any disaster.

But Lin Yuan still carefully cleared away all traces. What if something unexpected happened, causing the security personnel of the Mitsui Group to search the surroundings in advance?
The two of them slowly walked a long distance while clearing the traces before quickening their pace.

Betty has a very good physical condition. After all, she is the winner of the Kendo Championship. She runs forward in the forest with Lin Yuan, and her speed is not slow at all.

It took them more than 20 minutes to get back to their car.

Then he immediately started the car and drove away.

"It's done, time to find a place to sleep. Royal Palace Hotel?" Lin Yuan looked at his watch while driving. It was already past midnight.

He suggested accommodation, as the Palace Hotel was a familiar old friend to Betty.

During the previous Kendo Tournament, she stayed at the Imperial Palace Hotel for many days.

But Betty shook her head and said with a smile, "Don't you have a home in Asakusa? Let's live there."

Hearing Betty's words, Lin Yuan was stunned, and then immediately reacted:

Betty refers to the love nest that GAKKI-chan carefully built.

At this time, GAKKI-chan was in China, and he took Betty to live there...

Why does it feel a bit excessive?
Lin Yuan shook his head: "That place was built by Yui Aragaki. Taking you there like this is not respectful to her."

Betty, who was rejected, was not angry at all. She smiled and threw the phone to Lin Yuan: "I told you that you would reject me, but you can talk to the hostess yourself."

"I'm still driving, and you want me to answer the phone?" Lin Yuan complained.

Betty took back her phone and turned on the music.

GAKKI-chan's voice came from the phone: "Lin Yuan-san, is everything going well?"

"Of course, it has been solved perfectly. Now Betty and I are going to find a hotel to stay in, and we will go to Seoul again tomorrow. I will come to see you when I am done there." Lin Yuan said.

"You have a home, why are you staying in a hotel? I talked to Sister Betty and asked her to live with you at home." GAKKI said.

GAKKI-chan calls Betty "sister" instead of "Miss Adams". It seems that the four girls got closer when they got together on the night when Linyuan Pictures went public?

"That place carries too much of your hard work..." Lin Yuan said.

But GAKKI-chan interrupted him for once: "When I was building that place, I didn't think of it as just a place for the two of us to live in, but I wanted it to be your real home.

Since it is your home, its value can only be realized by bringing the people you care about into your home.

Otherwise, if you still want to take people to stay in a hotel, how can it be considered your home?
I'm not that stingy, Sister Betty is family to us."

Hearing Gakki-chan's words, Lin Yuan smiled and replied, "I understand. I'll listen to you. I believe Betty will be full of praise for your hard work."

"Have a nice evening!" GAKKI said meaningfully, then hung up the phone.

Betty smiled and asked, "Can I come and live at your house now? The hostess agrees."

Lin Yuan smiled and touched her head: "My home is your home."

After saying that, he turned on the car stereo.

"The girl told me that I protected her dream."

"They say there aren't many people like her in this world..."

"The girl told me I was a thief."

"Steal her memories and stuff them into my mind..."

A song came from the speakers. "What song?" Lin Yuan asked curiously.

"GAKKI-chan recommended it to me, I think it's great," Betty replied.

Well, that's really fitting.

Lin Yuan stopped talking and drove forward silently.

In the distance, the dazzling night view of Tokyo was getting closer and closer to them...

……

……

In the back garden of the Asakusa villa, it was already past 3 o'clock in the evening.

Lin Yuan and Betty took a shower as soon as they returned home.

Lin Yuan had been running around all day and had experienced two battles in a row, so he had to wash away the uncleanness on his body.

Halfway through his shower, Betty came in to scrub his back.

Then, while washing, the third fierce battle was triggered.

By the time the battle was over and the two had washed up, it was already very late, but neither of them felt sleepy.

So they came to the cabin in the back garden, looked at the moonlight, listened to the croaking of frogs and chatted.

"This courtyard is so nice, I like it very much." Betty said.

"You are the eldest daughter of the Adams family. You have seen all kinds of luxurious manors. How can you be conquered by this small garden that you made yourself?" Lin Yuan teased with a smile.

"It's because it's small that people seem closer to each other. And because it's built by ourselves, it's more cozy than those planned by designers." Betty shook her head.

"I like it here too. I was a little tired, but after coming back here I feel much more relaxed." Lin Yuan replied.

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Betty silently hugged Lin Yuan's head and placed it on her plump thighs.

"You've worked hard and been through so much these past few days. Just relax for a while."

Betty's slender fingers gently pressed Lin Yuan's head, making him feel quite comfortable.

My tense spirit finally relaxed completely.

He has been in intense confrontation for the past few days.

Starting from Sony's shareholders' meeting on September 9, he has been involved in the battle for control of Sony.

On the afternoon of September 9st, right after attending the shareholders' meeting, he rushed to Seoul to plan the next battle with Lee Boo-jin.

On the evening of September 9, after reaching a consensus, they immediately took action against Lee Kun-hee and restricted his personal freedom.

On the morning of September 9, Samsung Group’s shareholders’ meeting ousted Lee Kun-hee from the chairmanship, which immediately led to a dramatic personnel change at the group’s top level.

On the evening of September 9, the joint assassination attempt by Lee Jae-yong and Mitsui Morio was countered.

Late at night on September 9, he rushed to Tokyo and poisoned Mitsui Shigeo and sentenced him to death before he could react to the failed assassination attempt.

This series of high-intensity confrontations was so exhausting that even Lin Yuan, who had outstanding physical fitness, could not relieve his mental fatigue.

Resting his head on Betty's soft thighs, Lin Yuan felt the delicate skin of her legs and its warm elasticity.

"Thank you, I really couldn't have done this without you."

"Between us, never say thank you. This is the last time. I'll be angry next time." Betty increased the pressure on Lin Yuan's head massage.

Lin Yuan smiled and nodded. He didn't say thank you, but he was grateful in his heart.

At the Samsung shareholders' meeting, Betty must have put in a lot of effort to make the three major consortiums, Morgan, DuPont and Boston, abandon Lee Kun-hee and support Lee Boo-jin.

Otherwise, even if the DuPont Consortium and the Boston Consortium are optimistic about him, they will not easily make changes. The interests involved are too great. It is impossible for Lin Yuan to get support without putting up enough chips.

In the subsequent counter-assassination operation, Betty led the security team directly from New York to Seoul and played a crucial role.

After doing so many things, she still took the trouble to accompany him to Tokyo to carry out the assassination of Mitsui Shigeo.

She did this because she was afraid that if Lin Yuan made a mistake, she could help him.

Betty was born into the Adams family, which had a large number of students and former officials in the military. She could influence the senior officers stationed in Yokosuka and Kadena.

With her around, even if Lin Yuan was in danger, he wouldn't have to worry about being eliminated by Mitsui Shigeo.

Lin Yuan saw all of this, so how could he not be grateful from the bottom of his heart?

Even if all these are put aside, Betty is the girlfriend to whom Lin Yuan can most confidently show his dark side.

It's not that she doesn't trust Liu Yufei, Taylor Swift and GAKKI, but because the process of competing for interests will inevitably involve the darkest means and the bloodiest fights.

No one will give up the interests in their hands obediently, let alone those top tycoons who are as rich as a country.

It's not surprising that when they lose, they choose desperate revenge.

Only by fighting violence with violence and fighting back tit for tat can Lin Yuan have the opportunity to move forward.

However, he did not want Liu Yufei and the other three to be exposed to the dark side of this process.

Let Lin Yuan deal with the matter of having his hands stained with blood alone.

As for Betty, Lin Yuan didn't mind facing it together with her.

Because as the eldest daughter of the Adams family, she was already in a quagmire.

Only Betty could watch murder.

Lin Yuan killed his first murder, President Mills of MGM Studios.

Then Lin Yuan went to India and executed several gang members in succession.

Finally, tonight’s assassination of Morio Mitsui.

Every time Lin Yuan's hands were covered in blood, Betty stood side by side with him.

The two faced this most filthy enemy together and dealt with the aftermath together.

They are not just lovers, but comrades in the same trench, weathering the bloody storm.

"Will there be any trouble in cleaning up after tonight's operation?" Lin Yuan asked.

Betty shook her head: "After three or four weeks, when Mitsui Shigeo discovered that he had mercury poisoning, it would be too late to collect evidence.

He will soon become mentally confused, slurred, lose the ability to express himself, and no longer be able to use the power in his hands.

He is lying in bed waiting to die, so he can't possibly cause us any trouble."

"Where is our flight itinerary information? Will it be troublesome?" Lin Yuan continued to ask.

"Strictly speaking, there are definitely some problems, but I did it on purpose. I hope they can find out about our unusual travel in and out," Betty said.

"What?" Lin Yuan expressed his incomprehension.

"There is only one travel record, which does not constitute a substantial chain of evidence.

We want this effect where everyone knows it was us who did it, but you can't provide any evidence.

Otherwise, Mitsui Shigeo would be poisoned to death silently, and no one would know it was us who did it. How could we deter potential enemies then?" Betty replied.

After hearing what Betty said, Lin Yuan understood.

It is indeed as she said, deterrence itself is even more important than the results.

When all of Lin Yuan's worries were dispelled, he completely relaxed.

Feeling tired, he soon fell into a deep sleep under Betty's gentle massage.

……

……

When the morning sun shone on Lin Yuan's face, he woke up from a deep sleep.

He checked his phone. It was 9: in the morning.

The quality of sleep last night was very good. Although he didn't sleep for long, Lin Yuan felt refreshed and all his fatigue was gone.

Betty was still sleeping beside him. Lin Yuan had fallen asleep in the cabin in the back garden last night. Betty didn't have the strength to carry Lin Yuan back into the house.

So she simply went into the house to get pillows and sheets, and the two of them slept together in the back garden for the night.

Betty was still asleep at this time. Lin Yuan got up and went back into the house. He rummaged through the ingredients in the refrigerator and made a simple breakfast.

Then he returned to the back garden, woke Betty up, and they had breakfast together.

The flight to Seoul was at 12: noon. After having breakfast and tidying up the room, the two of them headed straight to the airport.

In order to leave no evidence, the car last night was taken away and disposed of by Adams' family's service personnel.

So today the two of them could only take a taxi to the airport.

Betty was in a good mood and gave an extra $100 tip when she got off the car.

……

……

At Incheon International Airport, Lee Boo-jin picked up Lin Yuan and Betty who flew from Tokyo.

"Did it go smoothly? Did you achieve your goal?" Lee Boo-jin asked.

"No problem, it's solved." Lin Yuan replied.

After hearing Lin Yuan's answer, Lee Boo-jin didn't ask any more questions.

It is really inappropriate to say more about this kind of thing.

"Let's go and meet your father. See if he has anything to say to us." Lin Yuan did not forget this.

"Actually, I don't really want to see him. If you hadn't accompanied me, I probably wouldn't have seen him. What else can we say if we meet at this time? It will only add to the unpleasantness." Lee Boo-jin sighed.

Yes, the relationship has been completely torn apart.

At this time, Lee Kun-hee must have known that his delaying tactic against his daughter had completely failed.

His daughter was not fooled by him, but instead took decisive action against herself by means of a coup.

Now that his daughter has taken away his position as president, what is there to meet again?

Lin Yuan said, "Do you remember I said this behavior is a bit like the 'Xuanwu Gate Incident'?"

Li Fuzhen nodded and said: "I dare not compare him with Emperor Taizong, but he does look a bit like him."

"Maybe the results will be very similar? Especially your father-daughter relationship." Lin Yuan said.

After hearing Lin Yuan's words, Li Fuzhen was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Who knows? I am a little curious now, what exactly does he want to say to me and you when we meet?"

The vehicle took them and soon arrived at the Li family's ancestral home.

Seeing Lin Yuan and the other two approaching, Chief Prosecutor Zhang came forward to greet them enthusiastically.

The first person he greeted was Betty.

Chief Prosecutor Zhang shook Betty's hands with both hands, bowed, and said, "Welcome, Miss Adams. The meeting with Lee Kun-hee has been arranged."

Flattery is a bit like a dog meeting its master.

But think about the South Korean Prosecutors General. Almost every one of them is a bootlicker of the United States. Unlike the president, who is a minority and has some backbone, the prosecutors general all kneel on the ground.

It is no wonder that Prosecutor Zhang showed such an attitude at this time.

Betty shook her head and pointed at Lin Yuan and said, "I'm not going to see Li Jianxi. I just followed Lin Yuan here."

The word she used was "follow", which means to follow.

This made Chief Prosecutor Zhang immediately realize that there was something wrong with the order of his greetings and that he was flattering someone.

So he immediately smiled and said to Lin Yuan, "Mr. Lin Yuan, I'm sorry. Do you want to go in now?"

Lin Yuan didn't care and nodded, "Yes, thank you for troubling Chief Inspector Zhang."

"What's the trouble? It's my honor to serve you." After saying that, Chief Prosecutor Zhang smiled and led Lin Yuan and the other two into the room.

After the two entered, Chief Prosecutor Zhang smiled and backed out, closing the door behind him.

Seeing Lin Yuan and Li Fuzhen, Li Jianxi, who was sitting on the chair, said: "You are finally here. I really didn't expect it."

Lee Kun-hee played a vital role in completing the final leap in Samsung's development and making it the largest chaebol in South Korea.

He is only 64 years old this year, which is still the prime age for an entrepreneur.

However, his entrepreneurial career at Samsung was completely ended by his daughter through a coup.

It is impossible for a normal person not to feel angry, and Lee Boo-jin was mentally prepared for her father to say something bad.

"You want us to let Lee Jae-yong go?" Lee Boo-jin asked.

She knew how precious her son was in her father's heart. If Lee Kun-hee wanted to plead for mercy at this time, it could only be for her son.

Hearing his daughter's words, Lee Kun-hee shook his head: "If you do something stupid, you must take responsibility. Besides, I don't think I have the face to ask you to agree to my request."

"So what do you want to talk about?" Lee Boo-jin asked.

"I would like to ask Mr. Lin Yuan, was it you who planned everything from placing me under house arrest, to the coup at the shareholders' meeting, and finally to foiling my stupid son's assassination plan?" Lee Kun-hee asked.

"I have to know who I lost to, right? Otherwise I won't be able to sleep well every night," Lee Kun-hee said again.

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "I did it. I persuaded Sister Fu Zhen to agree to give it a try."

Hearing Lin Yuan's reply, Lee Kun-hee seemed relieved: "It's you! You are more outstanding than I thought. No wonder you have risen to become the world's richest man in just a few years. You are so young, so intimidating. The future of this world will definitely belong to you."

"Thank you for the compliment." Lin Yuan replied.

He knew that for Lee Kun-hee, the anxiety in his heart would be completely relieved after getting an accurate answer.

"I have 8% of Samsung Group's common shares held by the Lee family, and I can transfer it to you." Lee Kun-hee turned his head and said to Lee Boo-jin.

Li Fuzhen thought about it, shook her head and refused. "Although I want your shares, I'm afraid we can't reach a deal. I can't be soft on you. Even if I can't get the family shares, I must send you to jail myself."

Lee Boo-jin acted quite cruel and heartless, but Lee Kun-hee laughed.
