Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

Musashi Hachima led a group of policewomen to get dressed and run to the Metropolitan Police Department building not far away, only to find that it was just the Vice Minister of Defense's car that had gotten stuck in a manhole cover that had been stolen.

This rather expensive luxury Mercedes was the apple of Vice Minister Wan Langxue's eye. When he saw that the axle had been displaced in the accident, and that the repair costs would likely wipe out his savings, Vice Minister Wan Langxue turned green with rage.

"You bastard! You idiot! You idiot (voice cracks)! My Mercedes!"

The secretary to the vice minister even had the audacity to remind this German car fanatic:

"This is a good thing. Next time, let's switch to a domestically produced joint venture car. We should be mindful of our political stance."

The furious Vice-Minister of Defense was dragged away by officers from the Ministry of Defense. (The rest of the text is nonsensical and appears to be gibberish.)

However, the theft of the manhole cover in front of the Metropolitan Police Department has become a new meme.

The road administration department came down into the well to take a look, and came back up shaking their heads:

"The manhole cover on the road ahead was stolen, and 6 kilometers of brass cable inside was cut off. After reviewing the surveillance footage, it seems that when the road maintenance team came to repair it, a few workers maliciously stole it."

This is a typical case of encountering manhole cover and wire thieves in Japan.

Stealing things right in front of our Metropolitan Police Department?

Not to mention Section 9 of the Public Security Bureau, even tens of thousands of police officers in the Metropolitan Police Department were furious when they heard that the manhole covers in front of their own gates had been stolen.

Tsukishima Minamisa went up to ask:

"Why haven't they caught anyone yet, given how outrageous this is?"

The Metropolitan Police Department officer replied regretfully:

"We checked the surveillance footage. The workers are from out of town, and they might be transient criminals, perhaps from the Kansai region. We're tracking the relevant surveillance cameras on the highway. In addition, we're urgently mobilizing collective farms and town service groups from various places to conduct public security awareness campaigns. We're encouraging those who are starving to go to the town service groups for meals and jobs, and to stop them from stealing manhole covers and electrical wires."

Some people immediately started speculating:

"Could it have been done by someone from Mie Prefecture?"

This isn't a stereotype, but it's something that gets brought up quite often. The story of the father and son, councilors from Mie Prefecture, stealing manhole covers isn't the only case. In fact, there are thieves all over Japan who steal manhole covers, electrical wires, precious metals, and rice. It's just that the Japanese media likes to hide the news.

The police officers whispered among themselves:

Has the economy really gotten this bad?

"Well, life is still the same. If before we couldn't even afford to eat, now we can probably eat our fill, but our income is lower. We can barely make ends meet each month. I think it's more likely that they don't know how to find a job."

The current economic situation can only be described as "okay." Under Li Xinghe's intervention, Japan and South Korea did not experience a devastating financial collapse like the United States during his tenure, but they are indeed gradually declining and are following the trend of China's economy.

In particular, with the increasing number of new immigrants, while they have supported the local economies of many counties and cities, they have also squeezed out unfortunate middle-aged men around 50 years old who were born during the bubble economy era and entered the workforce during the economic downturn following the economic crisis. They are truly miserable; from the moment they entered society until now, all they have done is suffer and be beaten. Therefore, the contradictions in this area are indeed significant.

However, Li Xinghe did provide them with food. It's just that they were isolated from information and didn't investigate on their own.

Japan is a very loose and contradictory country.

Japanese media used to love sensationalizing stories about foreigners committing crimes in Japan while the Japanese police and government always treated them well, in order to incite populism and attract attention.

However, the crime rate among foreigners in Japan has always been very low, even lower than that of Japanese people themselves.

The reality is that foreigners are generally well-behaved, while the Japanese have a higher crime rate. In fact, the Japanese government and police are powerless to control or apprehend them. Since the Japanese media and government cannot solve the problem, they resort to targeting those who raise the issue, shifting the blame to foreigners.

In this way, the Japanese can happily pretend that their country has good public security, while simultaneously promoting national peace and stability and producing games and TV dramas about the Yakuza, without ever considering that a country with a thriving Yakuza culture can never be peaceful and well-off.

Fortunately, the Western world is the same way, so they have never thought about the contradictions in this kind of cultural export.

The thief kept stealing all the way to Nagata-cho; it's not a big deal, but it's not insignificant either.

The news was reported to the cabinet meeting by the Metropolitan Police Department Commissioner.

Li Xinghe pushed up his non-prescription glasses and said speechlessly:

"For the sake of the nation, please... let them start anew in other entities of the United Nations."

This is no longer the Showa era, and Li Xinghe wouldn't be calling on old men to commit suicide or seppuku to make room for newcomers.

The idea of ​​organizing these people to go to Australia to cultivate and work is also linked to the political reform outline that is currently being discussed.

Ayako Aso presented Li Xinghe with the results of several cabinet meetings:

"If we want to achieve a higher level of organizational and national integration, administrative changes and economic guidance policies for conglomerates..."

Japan's national foundation has always been politicians, bureaucrats, and zaibatsu (financial conglomerates).

It is difficult to persuade bureaucratic groups because they rely on politicians' political decisions.

Convincing politicians is also difficult, because the lobbying and financial support from tycoons are indispensable.

It's difficult to persuade the chaebols individually, as they are not directly in power.

Therefore, we must get all parties involved and come up with a reasonable solution.

Lu Yuchi Hua Yingmei wasn't there, nor was Shui Jing Tianping. Gao Tiao Wuyue sat next to Li Xinghe, patting her chest and saying:

"It's alright, our eldest son is the best at seduce people. Send him..."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Gao Tiaowuyue suddenly realized that Li Xinghe had already returned.

Several cabinet officials lowered their heads, pretending they hadn't heard anything.

Little girl, you've been too arrogant all the time.

Li Xinghe, displeased, reached his hand inside Gao Tiao Wuyue's skirt, pinched her little bottom, and whispered in her ear:

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll sleep with you first."

Chapter 938: Having nothing to do but go to the secretary, being squeezed for juice on tour (3300 words)

"At the second cabinet meeting in May, Gao Tiao made a gaffe and was punished by being forced to touch someone's buttocks."

Of course, such a record would never appear in official records.

However, after the cabinet meeting adjourned, Takajo Satsuki sat on Li Xinghe's desk, pitifully covering her blue dress.

Li Xinghe crossed his legs and smiled as he looked at his most loyal subordinate:

"I heard you were quite arrogant when I wasn't around."

"I heard you still sit in my seat every day, using my seal to approve official documents. I have a whistleblower letter here, saying that Gao Tiao took the Prime Minister's seal in May and said, 'I think foot control is far less effective than control.'" (The rest of the text appears to be nonsensical and unrelated to the initial statement.)

Li Xinghe chuckled and tapped the table, then pretended to be serious as he said:

"Answer me, Corporal Takajo Satsuki!"

Gao Tiao Wuyue looked at Li Xinghe pitifully, recalling how she looked in the past two months. She gritted her teeth and suddenly started to take off her skirt.

"what?"

Li Xinghe was just joking; he didn't really intend to punish Corporal Gao Tiaowuyue.

"Waaaaah, I was wrong~"

May's fake crying was very obvious; she didn't even bother to add a few more tears, but instead let a few drops of dew flow from the small flower path.

"Sexual bribery, is that it?" Li Xinghe quickly went to draw the curtains.

Takajo May stood on tiptoe, leaned over the Prime Minister's desk, and pitifully pried open the small chrysanthemum. The flower revealed a deep beauty in its tender veins.

"It's been washed."

May, I'm sorry, I said in a low voice.

There is demand for Guanyinlong Qingniao, and there is also demand in May.

Li Xinghe scratched his head, naturally unable to refuse May's request.

He had May slowly back up and sit on his lap, applied lubricant, and let May take the lead in her sexual experience.

So when Higashikawa Yukami brought Ryuzaki Hibari to the office with the investigation results of the 'theft of manhole covers and cables at the entrance of the Metropolitan Police Department', she saw Takajo Satsuki with a small skirt covering her waist, sitting on Lee Seiha's lap, sucking on her lover whom she hadn't seen for months, her fingers still fiddling with her clitoris.

Behind them are the flags and badges of the Japanese Prime Minister's Office.

Higashikawa Yukimi walked in speechlessly:

“I’m telling you, you were away for two months, leaving the task of governing the country to your poor little secretary. Now that you’re back, why are you doing all that work for her again? She’s really tormented you, poor little May.”

Sitting in Li Xinghe's lap, Gao Tiaowuyue's expression changed. The soft back room with Li Xinghe made her feel like she was floating on air. Now she wished she could kick Higashikawa Yukami and Ryuzaki Hibari out.

Are you two out of your minds?

Can't you see I'm having a great time?

But seeing the ridiculously fake 'sympathy' on Higashikawa Yukami's face, Takajo Satsuki could only cover her skirt and force a giggle:

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt."

Higashikawa Yukami pouted.

If she hadn't been there yesterday, the Royal Hospital would definitely have been a double whammy of mother and daughter.

The outcome of the manhole cover and cable theft case was very simple.

Four poor, poor, and poorly educated men from the mountains of Shikoku were looking for work in Tokyo. After being taken to a road maintenance department in Nagata-cho by an outsourcing company, they discovered that the cables there contained a high copper content. So they cut the cables and ran. Not only did they run away, they also stole a road maintenance truck and sped all the way to Kobe City, where they were finally caught by the police after selling the cables and drinking heavily.

As for committing crimes in front of the Metropolitan Police Department, they felt incredibly proud. They thought they had defeated Japan's strongest police department and could boast about it for 20 years back in their hometown of Shikoku.

After reading the report, Li Xinghe speechlessly tossed it aside.

"Forehead……"

“Let’s talk about something positive. This year, fiscal spending can be cut by another 5 trillion yen. And we are expected to achieve the second fiscal contraction in nearly decades. I’ll approve another grant to the Metropolitan Police Department to increase surveillance.”

The reason isn't anything special; it's simply that RMB is flowing into Japan in large quantities, and the Japanese economy is gradually and deeply integrating into the Chinese market. During Li Xinghe's five years in charge, numerous Japanese factories signed contracts with Chinese investors, new immigrants filled jobs, and extensive tax-free policies facilitated incredibly rapid commodity flow. Therefore, the economy improved.

Moreover, Japan has a unique advantage: it is a financial nation.

The Japanese yen has replaced the US dollar in certain regions and gained the status of regional trade currency.

After all, the Chinese market still relies heavily on foreign trade exports, and the significant appreciation and fluctuations experienced by the RMB have been difficult for foreign buyers to bear in the short term. At this time, holding Japanese yen, with the economic support of the Asia-Pacific trade stabilizing currency, offers a significant advantage: it allows them to purchase Chinese goods and penetrate the Asia-Pacific trade sphere.

Furthermore, the cost of holding Japanese yen is very low, since it is almost interest-free.

This is exactly what it means: I don't care who the county magistrate is, but I must become the county magistrate's wife.

As for subsequent governance strategies, Li Xinghe pondered and said:

"For Japan at present, it is time for deeper political reforms. The economies of many prefectures and cities are still in dire straits, and more importantly, the town service corps has not been able to fully penetrate into the lives of ordinary people. Those who steal electrical wires have even gone so far as to steal from Nagata Town, yet they are unwilling to ask the town service corps for a meal. This fully demonstrates that our national policy governance still needs to be adjusted."

However, as a Japanese, Higashikawa Yukami still had doubts:

"Do we really have to keep pushing for political reform? You know that once a vertical political system is established, financial expenditures will become an even bigger problem. Is ruling a bunch of poor people really that satisfying?"

Li Xinghe didn't answer seriously, but just smiled and gave a perfunctory reply:

"It feels really good to rule over a bunch of poor people."

Taking advantage of the current situation, it would be best to reform Japan's contradictory political system as soon as possible. First, abolish local governments, then establish vertical leadership over major cities. Although this would require significant financial expenditure, it would be beneficial for adjusting the economy and improving people's lives.

Gao Tiao Wuyue nodded repeatedly, her back room tightened, and she felt a warmth.

Indeed, ruling over Li Xinghe's underlings is quite enjoyable.

……

in the afternoon.

The streets of Tokyo.

Li Xinghe's car stealthily navigated the bustling city streets, looking at the throngs of people on the still-adorned billboards advertising various Chinese anime and manga games.

Sitting next to Li Xinghe was none other than the Taiko's money-making master, the actual person in charge of the Cabinet's central treasury, the true mistress of the Tamagata Group, the heir to the Sally Group, and Li Xinghe's college classmate, Kokubun Makabe.

This short-haired, elegant young woman wore a silver evening gown, her slender legs encased in striped blue stockings, and silver high heels.

However, Kokubun Makabe doesn't look so good today, just like Bluebird's mother, who has also been abstaining from sex for two months.

In particular, Kokubun Makabe loves to observe those erotic little scenes, but he has never seen them.

Li Xinghe could sense this peculiar atmosphere.

It seems that not only Bluebird's mother, but all parties involved need some form of physical comfort.

Other emperors traveled to different capitals.

Li Xinghe, on the other hand, was constantly being squeezed for juice by his lover.

Just as Li Xinghe was pondering, there was a sudden commotion outside.

On the roadside, in front of an anime merchandise store, an older man knocked a small piece of trendy trash out of a child's hand.

"Don't look at these, they're all Chinese. You need to look at some Japanese stuff."
