"However, after his father died, his relationship with the Qinghe Group became extremely bad. About seven or eight years ago, he even slashed his own brother, Mr. Ishimura, in the face. After that, he completely disappeared from Tokyo."

Qingjing Suizhi said:

"I thought he was dead too..."

"But last night he suddenly appeared in the Qinghe Group and specifically asked to join this operation of threatening and luring the Sanhe Group... I don't know how he found out."

"However, judging from his performance just now, Ishimura Koji... well, let's just call him Fourth Master, it's easier to say... Fourth Master has become stronger than he was more than ten years ago. Not only you, I was also very surprised just now, after all, that speed is definitely not something that ordinary people like us can possess."

"Actually, you're just an ordinary person..." Sett said, "So all of this is related to that mysterious place? There's absolutely no information about that mysterious place?"

Aoi Soe pondered for a moment, then said:

"It's not that we have absolutely no information. I remember my father mentioning it before, that mysterious place is called... Takamagahara?"

Takamagahara? ? ?

Sett was completely bewildered.

In Japanese mythology, this is the dwelling place of the gods.

Holy crap, did those people go off to cultivate immortality?

Raising her phoenix eyes slightly, and noticing Sett deep in thought, Aoi Soe chuckled and said:

"Pfft... What are you thinking? You believe everything I say? It's all superstition."

"What Master Shicun just did might just be a special application of a sword-drawing technique, but we don't understand it, so we think it's beyond human capabilities."

No...although I've hardly encountered any besides today, after hearing what you said, I'm starting to think that this world definitely possesses extraordinary power... Sett casually echoed:

"Yes, we should trust science."

"Hmm…" She stretched lazily, her mature and graceful curves fully displayed. Qingjing's eyebrows arched slightly, reverting to her usual cold and alluring appearance. Her phoenix eyes flashed, and she said threateningly:

"I accidentally said a bit too much today, and you know too much... I don't want to hear this story from anyone else!"

The words had barely left her lips when her sharp gaze softened instantly, her mature, powerful aura vanished, and she smiled:

"So from now on, if you don't become my little lover, things won't end well."

That's a quick change of expression... Faced with the teasing, Sett remained unfazed and said in a deep voice, "Just pay me."

"Haha, you little money-grubber." Aoi Soe laughed and chatted, then raised her taut forearm and gently tapped on the car window.

The secretary outside the car quickly opened the car door a crack and bent down to listen.

"Tell Mizuno in the back to bring over Sett's money."

"Yes, sir!" The secretary with the flying hat quickly complied.

Not long after.

A bald, burly man named "Mizuno" approached from the back of the car, respectfully opened the door, and handed a small black briefcase to Aoi Suige, saying, "Team leader, here's the money you wanted."

"Hmm." Aoi Soie replied casually, her indifferent attitude intimidating.

Wait until the car door closes.

The cold, thorny rose suddenly bloomed, its red lips slightly parted as it looked at Sett and said, "Come on, you little money-grubber, here's your reward for tonight."

Sett eagerly took the black briefcase.

I mentioned the weight of this sum, which is equivalent to "Mom's annual salary".

As soon as she placed it on her lap, she gave the generous mother a thumbs-up and praised, "The boss is so generous!!"

"Haha." Aoi Soe was amused by Sett's sudden silly behavior again, and then asked, "Aren't you going to open it and count?"

"No, no, you're the leader of the Qinghe Group, you certainly wouldn't be greedy for such a small amount of money from me," Seti replied.

“Is that so…” Aoi Soe gave Sett a meaningful look, then fell silent.

He then rolled down the car window and gave an order to his secretary outside, who was wearing a flying hat:

"Come back and drive."

The secretary with the flying hat returned to her position.

The convoy set off again.

Speechless all the way.

We drove back to Qinghe Group.

......

After leaving the Sangokumi, the "elderly samurai" Kojiro Ishimura did not board the Qinghekumi's return convoy. Instead, he walked alone through the night streets with an old-fashioned samurai sword hanging from his waist.

In Tokyo, where there is a high tolerance for outlandish clothing, Ishimura Kojiro's Sengoku period samurai attire did not attract much attention.

This allowed him to walk alone and quietly.

while walking.

He found himself back in this all-too-familiar place without even realizing it.

Aoi Private Cemetery on the outskirts of Tokyo!

As land resources become increasingly scarce, cemetery prices are soaring. In addition, the Japanese people generally have a weaker sense of family these days, so fewer and fewer families are willing to spend a lot of money to build private cemeteries.

Fortunately, Aoi Soe is one of the few people who values ​​loyalty and righteousness.

This gave Kojiro Ishimura the opportunity to meet "Chief Aoi," for whom he had once sworn eternal loyalty and was even willing to give his life.

Even if it's just a meeting between the living and the dead, all you can see is a cold, lifeless tombstone.

"It's been so many years since I last visited you, I'm sorry... Suizhi has grown up a lot and is managing the Qinghe Group very well. Although she's not quite as good as we were back then, she's still doing very well... Don't worry..."

Kojiro Ishimura skillfully and meticulously brushed away the dust from the tombstone with his hands, his sharp, sword-like eyes softening with a rare tenderness.

suddenly!

The ancient samurai sword at his waist suddenly buzzed!

The warmth vanished from Kojiro Ishimura's wrinkled face, replaced by a sharp cry: "Who goes there!"

"You're still so sensitive..." A synthesized electronic voice came from the bushes not far away.

soon.

A...plastic Ultraman emerged from the bushes!

Its cheap materials and design would probably make even the most playful child shake their head and walk away.

The plastic Ultraman continued to ask incoherently in a synthesized electronic voice:

"You've seen it, right? What's your opinion?"

Seeing this, the sharpness in Ishimura Kojiro's eyes lessened somewhat. He turned back to continue wiping the dust and cobwebs off the tombstone, and asked in return:

"Who are you asking about? That girl, Broken Branch?"

"Or... is it the son of a coward like you who doesn't even dare to show his true form?"

Kojiro Ishimura read out the real name of the person behind the plastic Ultraman figure, word by word:

"Pro...theus!"

Chapter 21 A Night of Laughter and a Premonition of Death

Sett left the Green Seed Group.

They weren't in a hurry to go home.

I went to have a meal first.

White Wolf's combat strength wasn't particularly high, and he didn't pose much of a hindrance to Sett. Afterwards, he was only focused on eating, so he didn't expend much energy and didn't eat much at the meal.

It consisted of three boxes of sushi, a bowl of ramen, and some pork cutlets, beef chops, and other meat dishes.

Normally, eating this little bit would starve you to death.

Then.

Selt, carrying a suitcase containing a huge sum of money, walked into a 24-hour convenience store he encountered on the street.

Tokyo's convenience stores truly live up to the word "convenience".

Besides selling traditional food and snacks, you can also pay your gas and water bills, get photos developed, and send and receive packages here.

Seti made a special detour to buy things, of course.

"Now my savings are almost nine million... I earned nine million in five days. The earning power of underground boxing is amazing!" Sett thought to himself.

Nine million. Even if Seth only spends his own money, it will be enough to pay off the family's debt for three months.

The debt burden has been greatly reduced.

Furthermore, his subsequent victories over the Okazawa and Tulais brothers, his solo incursion into the Triad Group and crushing the White Wolf, and the subsequent apology from the Triad Group's vice-leader, were all publicized by the Green Harvest Group.

With increasing fame comes increasing ease, and making money will become easier and easier.

The future is bright!

Sett went to the kitchenware section of the convenience store. Now that he had more money, he was going to buy his mother a gift.
