I suddenly became a yakuza boss.
Page 35
"Oh, I've been there before."
Li Xuan knew that shop, he said.
"That's good. Our boss has been worried about the recent situation. If other groups charge exorbitant fees, the shop will probably have to close down."
The hostesses breathed a sigh of relief and told him about their worries.
Li Xuan said, "It's alright, things will be resolved soon. Didn't they send me here to maintain order?"
"That's right, with Mr. War Ghost protecting us, this street will be absolutely fine!"
The hostesses all had inexplicable confidence in Li Xuan.
Li Xuan understood that business was difficult for all industries during this period, and as he prepared to leave, he said, "Don't worry, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
"Mr. War Demon, come to our store sometime, and we'll definitely give you a 50% discount!"
A group of enthusiastic hostesses waved goodbye to him and said...
"Who would spend money at a place like that..."
Li Xuan put his hands in his pockets, wondering to himself.
For some reason, recently some residents in the neighborhood have started to recognize him and even know his nickname.
However, when he finished work and was about to go home for a short rest, halfway there, Li Xuan vaguely noticed a figure at the corner of a road in a residential area.
In these extraordinary times, he must be constantly on guard against attacks from rival gangs.
No matter who comes, he can always take them down.
Li Xuan walked up calmly, ready to be on guard, but when he was two or three meters away, he saw the other person's profile and his expression changed drastically!
He had planned everything meticulously, but he never anticipated that the people he would encounter would be far more dangerous than he had imagined.
A quiet street, Soubu High School summer uniforms, long, beautiful black hair, and a schoolbag in hand.
She was a quiet girl, a beautiful high school girl.
This is also the person who has put the most pressure on Li Xuan so far.
Yukino Yukinoshita stands on the street, seemingly waiting for someone.
Soon, Yukino Yukinoshita also noticed him.
"...You, what are you doing here?"
Li Xuan asked, his face full of astonishment.
Yukino Yukinoshita's expression changed slightly. She seemed to have not expected to run into him at this time. After a moment of silence, she bowed slightly to Li Xuan and said politely, "Hello, it's been a while."
"Wait a minute, who...who are you waiting for...me, are you waiting for me?"
At first, Li Xuan thought it was just a coincidence that they had run into each other again, but then Yukino pointed at him directly, which surprised Li Xuan even more. He pointed at himself and asked.
Yukino Yukinoshita asked in a casual manner, "How have you been lately?"
Li Xuan thought for a moment, not quite understanding why she suddenly asked this, and replied, "It's alright, it's alright."
Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly asked, "But recently I've seen you frequently going in and out of certain shops during work hours. Have you changed jobs?"
In that instant, Li Xuan witnessed Yukino Yukinoshita's frosty expression and somewhat serious demeanor in the quiet street. When he mentioned this, for some reason, he felt as if he had been strongly struck by Yukino's aura, and he vaguely heard a "hum" sound.
That indifferent gaze was somewhat intriguing... but Li Xuan couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.
Yukino Yukinoshita seemed to show no emotion. She rummaged through her bag and pulled out a notebook, saying calmly, "For the sake of my future, I should at least take my career seriously."
"Coincidentally, I founded a club at school called the Service Club."
"The club's activities involve helping people in need and accepting various requests from students on campus."
"But simply offering help is not enough; success still depends on the individuals involved!"
Yukino Yukinoshita stood in the street, her black hair fluttering in the evening breeze, her expression calm and serious as she said, "However, the club activities are not currently defined in a specific way, so we can make an exception and provide assistance to anyone who encounters difficulties outside of school."
Service Department?
This was the first time Li Xuan had ever heard of such a bizarre student club.
Wait a minute, does this girl mean she's going to help him?
"Help me? Why do you suddenly want to help me?" Li Xuan asked, completely bewildered.
Yukino Yukinoshita widened her eyes slightly, looking at Li Xuan with a puzzled expression, as if she thought Li Xuan was the one who shouldn't have asked that question.
"Hmph..." Yukino sighed softly, her face full of hesitation, before finally offering a gentle piece of advice: "So... you shouldn't be working in a place like a nightclub... right?"
~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·
The entrance to a highly-rated family restaurant.
— [Beep beep...] The call is being connected.
The call connected quickly, and Yukinoshita Haruno's signature cheerful and energetic greeting came through: 【Yahoo!!】
"Miss Yukinoshita, please wait a moment, I have something very urgent to discuss with you."
Li Xuan rudely interrupted Yang Nai's energetic greeting. He had made an excuse to come out and make the call. At this moment, Yukino Yukinoshita was already sitting in the store waiting for him to come in. At this critical moment, he called Yang Nai to discuss this unexpected situation.
"Your sister came to see me, and she suddenly wanted to introduce me to a job."
Li Xuan briefly informed Yukino Yukinoshita about this matter.
He initially thought she already knew he was involved in organized crime, but she mistakenly thought he worked at a nightclub.
As a result, Yukino seemed to be recommending him for a new job.
After a brief silence, his phone was suddenly filled with Yang Nai's burst of laughter: 【Hahaha!!!】
Li Xuan was a little annoyed, but he could only lower his voice and say, "Hey, don't laugh for now. I'm totally confused. Can you help me analyze what happened?"
—【Haha, sorry, but it's really funny. Why are you suddenly offering to introduce me to a job?】
Yukinoshita seemed to still have more to say, so she apologized and asked again.
"Well, it seems they misunderstood that I worked in a nightclub and felt bad about it, so they found me a job..." Li Xuan told Yang Nai the general reason.
Then, for some reason, he heard Yukino Yukinoshita's breathless laughter again.
"Hey, we're talking business!" Li Xuan said angrily, his face dark and his cheek pressed against the phone.
—【Mr. War Demon, you seem to know how to say some really funny things today. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time.】
"So what's so funny... So what do you understand?"
Li Xuan stood outside the street and asked, puzzled.
—Based on the information you've provided, I can roughly guess why she did this... Mr. War Demon, Yukino-chan probably still doesn't know your yakuza identity.
Yang said on the phone.
—[Although I don't know how she misunderstood and thought you were in that kind of profession, she must have had her reasons for deciding to help you.]
Over the phone, Yang Nai offered her analysis of her sister's behavior.
—Could you tell me how she approached you about offering to help?
Li Xuan replied, "It seems she established a club at school called the 'Service Club,' whose activities are specifically designed to help people in need..."
—[Offering assistance in the name of the "Service Department"... In that case, you can try to get her to help you, or you can proactively reveal your identity as a yakuza member—that's entirely up to you.]
Li Xuan fell silent upon hearing this.
Why didn't you tell her that I'm a yakuza?
Li Xuan asked.
—【Why? There's really no particular reason. Or maybe as the older sister, I should indeed stop a typical yakuza. But you're not your average yakuza; your way of communicating is quite interesting, um, that's probably the reason.】
Yang answered in a very ambiguous tone over the phone.
"I don't understand what you're saying at all," Li Xuan said bluntly, not quite understanding. Did he mean his character was still reliable?
—【That's all I can say about this. Strictly speaking, this is a matter between the two of you. How you handle it is up to you. Ah! I have an exam tonight, and I'm studying at the library right now. I can't chat with you any longer. Bye!】
Then, Li Xuan heard the sound of the phone being hung up.
Who knows, his natural enemies in this world might be these two sisters.
Just as Li Xuan was looking at his phone, pondering how to deal with this predicament, the restaurant door suddenly opened, and Yukino Yukinoshita looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked, "Can we start now?"
Li Xuan was taken aback. Now there was no way out, so he had no choice but to force a polite smile and reply, "It's all done."
In a cold drink shop, she brought a notebook with her to jot down his skills and work experience.
Judging from her attitude, this icy girl was genuinely serious about finding him a respectable job.
Li Xuan didn't dislike this kind of help; in fact, he quite accepted this kind of ordinary yet dedicated assistance.
There are very few people in the world who are willing and patient to help you. This dedication at least made Li Xuan feel that he was in an ordinary and stable environment for the time being.
When asked about his educational background, Li Xuan's university degree in this world turned out to be terrible; it was from an unknown local university in Chiba.
When asked about her work skills, she had no problem with civil engineering, financial lending, or client negotiation.
Li Xuan could fabricate his subsequent work experience, but since the Japanese company wouldn't bother to verify the authenticity of irrelevant details, they didn't bother to check the information's veracity.
Judging from the overall competitiveness, Li Xuan could tell from Yukino Yukinoshita's helpless expression...
"Well, this kind of thing shouldn't be done by a student like you in the first place. I can do it myself..."
Li Xuan, sitting opposite, offered some words of advice.
"It's okay, I can handle it."
Yukino lowered her head, focusing intently on analyzing the information on the paper, and gave a rough answer.
Soon, after finishing her juice, the sky began to darken. The pretty high school girl put her notebook back in her bag, stood at the shop entrance, and prepared to say goodbye to Li Xuan.
"Thank you for your hard work today. I'll let you know once I find a suitable job opportunity..."
As Yukino Yukinoshita was talking, she suddenly remembered something, took out her phone, and said, "Oh right, you need to add my LINE account first. I'll add you now."
Li Xuan stood in the street, slightly taken aback. Did this mean they now had a legitimate way to contact each other?
However, Yukino Yukinoshita was standing there alone, and when Li Xuan noticed her slightly hesitant expression, he found himself in an awkward and passive situation. Li Xuan had no choice but to quickly open Line and add Yukino as a friend.
Li Xuan asked curiously, "Won't doing this affect your studies?"
