Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

Vance certainly needs money.

With annual interest payments on US Treasury bonds exceeding one trillion dollars, Vance needs ample fiscal space if he wants to accomplish anything.

The Democrats are powerful in both houses of Congress and will not grant Vance any new debt, so he will have no choice but to seek help from his allies.

At the same time, he also needs to give back to his sponsors.

Peter Thiel, Vance's financial backer, is the new generation leader of the technology and arms industry.

Like Musk's Starlink, he is an investor in high-tech defense services. His own company, Paradil, primarily focuses on intelligence data analysis, employing unique algorithms to capture intelligence and providing expensive intelligence analysis services to the CIA and the U.S. military.

Reports suggest that Osama bin Laden's location was pinpointed by an algorithm developed by Peter Thiel's company, leading to his assassination by US Navy SEALs. Similarly, the anti-China bots that have proliferated on the Chinese internet, as well as Taiwan's 1450 team, are also closely linked to Peter Thiel and receive anti-China funding from the US government.

However, his company's fees were too high, leading the CIA and the Pentagon to later try to cancel their contracts with him and instead develop their own algorithms.

After that, Peter Thiel jumped ship to the Republican Party, aligned himself with Trump, and supported Vance's rise to vice president. Once Vance took off, Peter Thiel's company quickly turned around, signing new, expensive yet reasonable contracts with major American institutions.

Don't worry about why his contract price is much higher than other companies', the contract just has to be signed.

Peter Thiel enjoyed unimpeded access to military conglomerates in the United States, but encountered difficulties in Europe. This led to a far-right instigation plan dubbed the "Dark Alliance" in Europe, aimed at overthrowing governments and installing pro-Trump and pro-Vance far-right figures in power. Once in power, they would naturally place orders with these new military-industrial complexes.

As for winning, that's an absolute necessity for Magas.

If they can't win, their worldview will collapse.

Based on this allocation, even if 2 trillion yen cannot be raised, at least 1 trillion yen will be needed, meaning Japan will have to contribute at least 500 billion US dollars.

After listening to Li Xinghe's explanation, Shi Poshige, his hands trembling slightly, took off his glasses and, after a long silence, sighed:

"I think I should resign after all."

Before Li Xinghe could speak, Shi Poshige's secretaries all tried to stop him.

"no!"

The current situation in Japan is so precarious that even the opposition parties don't want to seize power. It's precisely because no one wants to take the blame that Shigeru Ishiba was brought in to form a caretaker government.

Want to run?

There's no way to escape.

Seeing the old man so distressed and at a loss, Li Xinghe couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.

Then the evil seduction began.

He proposed:

“We can cooperate.”

How to cooperate?

Shigeru Ishiba countered with a question.

Li Xinghe was not in a hurry, and said slowly and calmly:

"For example, if you support my efforts to reform government efficiency, I will help you stabilize prices. I will help you coordinate efforts to reduce the exploitation by the United States, and you will help me resolve some obstacles to corporate acquisitions."

"Let me think about it."

Shigeru Ishiba did not immediately agree.

After all, this was only Li Xinghe's first day back. Given the political nature of the Japanese, they would need at least some time to adjust before they could cooperate.

The rapidly expanding Lee Sung-ha Group, comprising the political Public Security Section 9 and the economic Tama no Kagami Foundation, appears to be encountering obstacles on both fronts.

After leaving the Cabinet Office, to avoid being bogged down in political affairs again, Li Xinghe called home to arrange a family dinner.

It just so happened that Chiyo Hinaki and Mikasa Kaoru were both at the Ministry of Justice. They went downstairs together and met Li Xinghe on the roadside.

After returning home, Li Xinghe casually asked:

Where is Misato's mother?

"Forehead……"

Mikasa and Chiyo looked at each other, unsure whether they should bring up that terrible thing.

Should we tell Li Xinghe directly:

'Your mother is pregnant and is hiding now.'

'Otherwise, people will ask who did it?'

'Can we really say that you did it?'

Are these kinds of words that make people unable to hold back just by thinking about them?

To change the subject, Mikasa slapped the table to divert Li Xinghe's attention:

"Let's get down to business. There's trouble at home, and this time it's a really big problem."

The author says:

Author's Note: Thank you all for your support. 3900 words. This month has begun, so please vote with monthly tickets and urge me to update more frequently—both are very important. Tomorrow, I will quickly transition to the main plot of the next segment, returning to a state of balancing eroticism and political commentary.

Chapter 635: Nobunaga's Encirclement and the Mexican War (4300 words)

When Li Xinghe finally returned to his home after being away for almost a month, the warmth of his home felt especially welcoming.

Natasha has already teamed up with Ai Azuma and Taihou Niizawa, and the three girls are running around Li Xinghe in circles:

"Hooray, I'm finally back!"

Fuji Hinako, Fuji Rie, and Hirai Yumi sat inside and outside the kitchen, whispering to each other about something.

Maria Miyake, with her legs crossed, chatted with Mikasa's mother about the political situation, feigning modesty, while watching Li Xinghe being taken down by Valeria, taking revenge for him not taking her to the White House for sex.

Miss Tamae didn't come to Mio today, but Chiyo Hinahime made a special contact with other relatives in the family.

For example, the gentle and virtuous Zhao Lieshu, with a murderous aura, joined forces with the Li sisters, Li Daiyao and Li Juyan, and Xuan Zhihua's mother to storm their door. Seeing Valeria strangle Li Xinghe, instead of coming to her husband's rescue, she clicked her tongue and said, "Oh, which heartless man has been caught?"

"Yeah, yeah, he's been gone for a month without a sound. People who don't know better would think he's been eaten by other women because he's been too promiscuous." Li Daiyao stretched out her white-socked foot and deliberately stepped on Li Xinghe's lower abdomen, about three-tenths of the way down. But there was no force; it was more like a tease.

"I'm back~"

The shameless lawyer, Yan Bingxianzi, makes her grand entrance alongside Shui Jingtianping, followed by Gao Jiruimingzi, her little tagalong.

Just a few minutes after the two of them came in, Lu Yuchi Hua Yingmei took off her trench coat, revealing a charming and fitted sweater, and entered the room.

Shuijing Tianping pursed his lips at Hua Yingmei:

"Just got back from selling your old face, huh?"

"Screw you."

Hua Yingmei rolled her eyes and didn't say anything, while Tsutsumi Reiji and Miyaji Aimi pushed open the door together.

As more and more people arrived at the house, the sofa was already full when the tall couple, Higashikawa Yukami and Kannon Taki Aotori, arrived. Minami Kasumi, carrying gifts, made her first visit, and her beauty and temperament amazed Mami Kaoru.

Finally, when Misato returned with a bag of groceries, she found her house filled with all sorts of beautiful young women.

A simple home-cooked meal was no longer possible; everyone had already called a restaurant to have food delivered to celebrate the reunion.

"Did you have fun in Washington?"

What everyone is most concerned about is what Li Xinghe is up to in Washington, which is fraught with crisis.

Li Xinghe didn't mention the story of bombing the White House, but instead talked about how he hid in the Pentagon and Arlington base for a month.

And speaking of politics, the 'huge crisis' that Mikasa mentioned has arrived.

She said with a hint of melancholy:

"Do you remember the case of the mother who assisted her boyfriend in molesting her daughter and was sentenced to the maximum sentence of 6 years? That was the case I led the sentencing of when I was a counselor."

"Yes, I remember."

Li Xinghe was very curious; could such a case really be overturned?

Chiyo Hinahime's mother chimed in, mentioning:

"Now there's new information. After the couple was released from prison, they've been instigated by someone to appeal again, claiming they didn't sexually assault their daughter over a long period, but only did..."

Twice, therefore they believed the maximum sentence was unreasonable and requested an administrative review.

Mikasa Kaoru adds to the ending of the story:

“We actually only found credible evidence of two sexual assaults. But according to the suspects’ confessions, the two of them had been committing the assaults together for two years. And public opinion was outraged, so they were treated as the maximum penalty at the time. Now they claim that they shouldn’t have been sentenced so severely.”

In fact, the mere fact that the mother forced her daughter to be sexually assaulted by her boyfriend twice is already shocking beyond description.

The hellish situation the girl endured during those two years, as they described it, is suffocating just to think about it.

Li Xinghe looked at the water mirror balance and asked in confusion:

"That doesn't make sense. We have Hua Yingmei, Shui Jingcheng, and Shi Houji. The entire judicial system is under our control. How could they possibly find a way to overturn the case?"

The fake ice queen then enlightened Li Xinghe:

"The problem is that, under the current system, all the other party has to do is file a lawsuit, and we'll be in trouble. Their lawsuit will inevitably fail, but the forces opposing us are very strong, and this could also cause Aunt Jian's position as head of the criminal investigation department to fall through."

Li Xinghe roughly figured it out.

This is dragging down the once-prosperous Jian family.

Li Xinghe and Hua Yingmei publicly acknowledged their marital status, although they did not admit to having registered their marriage. However, given the ambiguous relationship between Shuijing Tianping of the Shuijing family and Li Xinghe, and the fact that Jian Meixun and Chiyo Hinaki are prosecutors, this impressive lineup has, to some extent, infringed upon the interests of other bureaucratic factions within the Ministry of Justice.

So they are retaliating, trying to trip up the Jian family.

While everyone was there, Nan Jiaduomei jokingly asked Li Xinghe about his difficulties:

"Our supermarket expansion plans have also been halted, and our online store development plans have been suspended. We currently only have three stores, so it's impossible to sell any better."

The expansion of discount supermarkets in Tokyo has been thwarted, with the existing three supermarkets having limited customer capacity and unable to stop Tokyo's prices from continuing to soar.

It goes without saying that the Agricultural Cooperative and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries are behind this; it must be the bureaucrats who are behind it.

Lu Yuchi Hua Yingmei's expression gradually became serious.

Because her life at the Ministry of Justice was not easy either, as many bureaucrats opposed her executing a death row inmate every day.

Now she understands:

"This is a total war, an encirclement of Nobunaga that is not just against you, but against all of us."

Li Xinghe is the one who was targeted, Oda Nobunaga.

There is a clear line between the life and death of a career bureaucrat: whether or not they are in office.

The Harada Yoshihisa family, who were turned into a two-dimensional pulp by Li Xinghe's truck last time, were mainly affected because the old man instigated a major strike by Tokyo's civil servants, which caused a huge negative impact. Moreover, he was a local bureaucrat in Tokyo, not a bureaucrat in central government, which added another layer of separation.

To date, Li Xinghe has not publicly killed any high-ranking Japanese government officials, thus breaking the last veil of political consensus.

It can only be said that America's madness is not without its benefits; when hatred runs deep, hiring a gunman to eliminate the competitor is the best solution.

However, in Japan, Li Xinghe had to consider many more things.

Li Xinghe was a little angry:

"It seems it's time to kill them."

Fujihinako offered a uniquely ingenious strategy:

"I can find a cannibal to eat them for you. Don't worry, she's a pretty woman of mixed South American, Hakka, Japanese, and Caucasian descent, and a nutrition therapist specializing in nutrition planning and training. But the man is an old man, so she might not be willing to eat him."

Everyone was immediately stunned.

Sasaki Toya whispered:

What if they eat our Xinghe?

Mikasa immediately tapped the two girls on the forehead with a chopstick.

What a load of nonsense.

A few particularly curious people asked:

"Do such people really exist?"

"Yes, she has a rare disease, porphyria, which is the origin of vampires. The wizard in her hometown taught her to eat human liver to save herself."

Immediately afterwards, Fujihinako and Toya were kicked out of the table.

Then, Yukami Higashikawa announced the final results of her investigation, which had lasted for about a month:

"Although they hid very well, I still managed to find them. The Vice-Minister of Finance, Hiroshi Niikawa, the Vice-Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, Takeshi Watanabe, and the assistants to the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, Kenichi Shoji and Sachiko Yamamoto, met at a restaurant on several occasions, and many of the issues they discussed involved us."
