Tokyo: Starting with the Shrine Maiden

Page 337

"Master."

Momoka Utsunomiya stepped forward slowly and said, "The head of the family would like to speak with you."

Haruhiko was a little surprised.

The Utsunomiya and Yagyu clans suffered such a fate thanks to the intelligence he provided.

If it were him, Mina Utsunomiya, he would have gotten rid of her long ago.

But thinking about it carefully, she didn't dare to kill before, and she's even less likely to kill now.

If he were to kill himself, Tachibana Yui would go mad and stop at nothing to target the Utsunomiya and Yagyu clans.

Now, she's opted for a gradual, incremental approach, prioritizing safety.

"take me."

Haruhiko snapped out of his reverie, nodded, and said.

"Please get in the car, young master."

Momoka Utsunomiya turned around and opened the car door.

Haruhiko sat in the passenger seat.

The car drove away from the University of Tokyo.

It looks like it's a bit far.

After thinking about it, Haruhiko simply asked Aizawa Kaoru for leave.

A few minutes later, the car stopped in front of a hotel.

"follow me."

Momoka Utsunomiya folded her umbrella and led the way.

I took the elevator and arrived at my room on the third floor.

She rang the doorbell, and a moment later, the door opened, revealing a beautiful and wealthy woman.

Haruhiko had seen her before; she was Mina Utsunomiya's shikigami, a female tengu.

He glanced at her black wings instinctively before entering the room.

Mina Utsunomiya, dressed in a black kimono, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her expression gloomy, looking at the city in the distance under the rain curtain.

"Stand back."

She said it without turning her head.

Momoka Utsunomiya immediately left the room and closed the door.

As for the female tengu, she transformed into countless feathers and disappeared.

"looking for me?"

Haruhiko sat casually on the sofa.

Mina Utsunomiya was in a bad mood, but it had nothing to do with him.

The only pity is that the Utsunomiya clan suffered considerable losses.

However, the Utsunomiya family now belongs to Utsunomiya Mina.

Haruhiko didn't feel any heartache.

"What does Tsuchimikado Mashiro want to do next?"

Mina Utsunomiya turned around and asked in a rather cold tone.

Haruhiko sized her up.

Compared to his previous confident attitude, he now appears exhausted.

Even a cold and beautiful face cannot hide it.

"You should know."

Haruhiko raised an eyebrow and said.

How can it be stopped?

Mina Utsunomiya was silent for a few seconds before asking.

"I'm afraid it's difficult."

Haruhiko shrugged and said, "Even I can't change her mind."

"I can tell you the specifics of your parents' disappearance."

Mina Utsunomiya took a deep breath and said, "You've done so much just for this."

"Indeed."

Haruhiko nodded in agreement, and as she looked slightly pleased, she added, "But it's not necessary now."

"What do you mean?"

Mina Utsunomiya's expression changed, and she asked.

"You should understand that, given the current situation, it's only a matter of time before you lose the Utsunomiya and Yagyu clans."

Haruhiko chuckled and said, "Although you are very powerful, you can't stop so many forces from kicking you when you're down. When the time comes, you will naturally tell us the answer."

"you are dreaming!"

Mina Utsunomiya gritted her teeth and said, "At worst, we'll both be severely injured!"

"Are you willing to?"

Haruhiko stroked his chin and asked, "You've worked so hard for so many years to climb to this position, are you willing to give up your power?"

Mina Utsunomiya was slightly taken aback.

She looked at Haruhiko, remaining silent for a long time.

"what do you want?"

Mina Utsunomiya moistened her dry red lips and asked.

"You're a smart person, you should understand."

Haruhiko pointed at her and said.

Mina Utsunomiya stiffened slightly, but then gave a charming smile.

Her haggard appearance added to her pitiful look.

It was as if she were a widow, forced to force a smile.

“You and your father are so different.”

Mina Utsunomiya regained her confidence, stepped forward, and bent down slightly.

Black hair fell down, quite smooth.

"I understand what you want."

Mina Utsunomiya let out a breath.

The scorching heat brushed against Haruhiko's face, allowing him to smell a rich fragrance.

"But you don't have enough chips."

Mina Utsunomiya's eyes sparkled as she bit her red lips and said, "I only submit to the strong, and you are not right now unless you become the head of the Tsuchimikado clan."

"It's just a matter of time."

Haruhiko pinched her chin and said, "Your problem now is not my identity, but preserving your power."

Mina Utsunomiya's smile froze.

At the same time, I also felt a sense of humiliation.

It was the first time her chin had been pinched.

If it were anyone else, they would have been torn to pieces long ago.

This behavior is undoubtedly a huge offense.

But now that we're under someone else's roof, we have no choice but to bow our heads.

"Let's talk again when you've thought it through."

Haruhiko released her chin, got up and left.

As Mina Utsunomiya said, he is indeed short of bargaining chips right now.

However, asking for some interest first is not a big problem.
