Tokyo, 1991: Starting as a bank clerk.

Kiryu Yaya, seeing Nakajima Konosuke's expression, already had a plan in mind.

The fact that Konosuke Nakajima didn't directly tell him to leave speaks volumes about his intentions.

After a few minutes of silence in the office, Konosuke Nakajima looked at Yaya Kiryu again, a strange emotion flashing in his eyes.

His voice was filled with curiosity:

"Kiryu-kun."

"How can you be so sure that I have something on Kenichi Sato?"

Kiryu Yaya remained noncommittal in response to Nakajima Konosuke's rhetorical question.

He said with a smile:

"Former Managing Director Nakajima, please stop talking to me with these meaningless words."

"It's surprising that you, who have been working with Kenichi Satoh for over a decade, don't have any dirt on him."

Konosuke Nakajima snorted but didn't say anything.

But Kiryu Yaya immediately said:

"Right now, besides Managing Director Miyamoto and me, the person you hate the most is probably Kenichi Sato, isn't he?"

"The person who used you as a tool for over a decade refused to say a single word for you when you fell. How could you not harbor resentment?"

Konosuke Nakajima's face stiffened.

Does he hate Kenichi Sato?

hatred!

As Kiryu Yaya said.

He collaborated with Kenichi Sato for over a decade.

How could he not hate him when he was so cold-hearted at the end?

But he also knew that Sato was cunning and powerful.

If he dares to lay a hand on Kenichi Sato, the consequences that await him are unimaginable.

Therefore, Konosuke Nakajima had no choice but to swallow this hatred.

But Kiryu Yaya just happened to come knocking on his door at this very moment.

His suggestions were so appealing.

If anyone else came to him, Nakajima Konosuke would just think they were a fool.

But this person is Kiryu Yaya.

As the person directly involved, only he truly knew the terrifying strength of Kiryu Yaya.

Furthermore, Kiryu Yaya's ability to reveal all of his hidden assets just now sparked a thought in Nakajima Konosuke's mind.

Behind this young man, there is probably a deep and unfathomable background.

In that case, Kiryu Yaya might actually be able to defeat Sato Kenichi.

When this thought came to mind, even Konosuke Nakajima was surprised by himself.

Why would he think that?

But this idea, like a wildfire, slowly spread in his heart.

He wanted Kenichi Sato to experience the same suffering he had endured.

Kiryu Yaya's voice rang out again:

“Former Managing Director Nakajima, you know Kenichi Sato better than I do.”

"He worked at Mitsubishi Bank for over thirty years, rising from section chief to executive director, and handled countless cases."

"But he rarely made any mistakes, which shows how shrewd and calculating he was."

"However, you've worked with him for so many years, you must have evidence that could deliver a fatal blow to him, such as records of human intervention in certain projects."

"For example, pressure documents in certain approval processes, or exchanges of benefits in certain personnel arrangements."

“You’ve worked at Mitsubishi Bank for thirty years, so you know that these things may not constitute a criminal offense.”

"But these things, within the bank, are enough to ruin the reputation of an executive."

Konosuke Nakajima fell silent.

His gaze fell on the handover list on his desk, his eyes gleaming.

He was struggling.

On the one hand, I want to just let it go and stop worrying about Mitsubishi Bank. At this age, it's appropriate for me to retire and enjoy my old age.

I'll just stay in my hometown, fish, eat and drink, and live out the rest of my life in a simple and peaceful way.

But on the other hand, he also felt somewhat resentful.

He really wanted Kenichi Sato to experience the same suffering he had endured, since Sato hadn't offered a single word of support at the very end.

a long time.

Konosuke Nakajima began:

"Kiryu-kun, you guessed right."

"Kenichi Sato is a very cautious person. He never leaves any room for others to criticize him."

"He never lets any money pass through his hands; all exchanges of benefits are done through personnel arrangements and project coordination."

"This method makes it extremely difficult to investigate."

As Konosuke Nakajima spoke, a hint of reminiscence appeared in his eyes.

Whenever he thinks about Kenichi Sato's actions, he feels that the other party is sinister and terrifying.

"But you're right, I do have some dirt on Kenichi Sato."

"but……"

Konosuke Nakajima paused for a moment.

He asked his own question.

Why should I help you?

Konosuke Nakajima's words already represented his meaning.

Kiryu Yaya paused for only a moment before speaking confidently.

"Because you have no other choice."

"hehe."

Konosuke Nakajima burst out laughing.

Kiryu Yaya's voice continued.

"Former Managing Director Nakajima, if you really have something on Kenichi Sato, do you think, given his personality, he would really let you leave safely?"

Konosuke Nakajima's eyes narrowed slightly.

As long as he still has dirt on Kenichi Sato, Kenichi Sato will never feel comfortable letting him leave Tokyo safely.

Konosuke Nakajima understood this as well.

Kiryu Yaya sighed:

"On the other hand, you should be glad that I chose to sit here and talk to you about this today, instead of directly handing over your asset information to the IRS."

"Otherwise, over 20 billion euros would be enough for former Managing Director Nakajima to stay in prison until the end of his life."

Konosuke Nakajima remained silent.

This is the truly important point: Kiryu Yaya knows all of his assets.

Although his assets are well hidden, they are impossible for the average person to find out.

But he dared not gamble in front of Kiryu Yaya.

Kiryu Yaya continued:

I'll give you two choices.

"One is taking advantage of my good intentions to cooperate and produce something."

"The other one is waiting for your shady assets to be uncovered one by one, and then the IRS will take you away."

"When that time comes, what you lose will be more than just the position of managing director."

Konosuke Nakajima did not respond.

However, he knew that if he didn't cooperate, Kiryu Yaya would really do it.

At this point, Kiryu Yaya sighed and kindly backed down:

"Former Managing Director Nakajima."

“I don’t need you to produce enough evidence to send Kenichi Sato to prison. You can’t possibly have that kind of evidence, and Kenichi Sato can’t stay here.”
