Only I Follow the Law: An Unorthodox Tokyo Cultivation Routine.

Kujo Maki nodded, assuming she just needed to use the restroom and didn't ask any further questions.

Chapter 140 String Sound, I'm Sorry to You

After leaving for a while and composing herself, Masako Yagyu returned to the Japanese-style room.

All the deductions suggest that she will ultimately meet a dark and corrupt end.

She felt that things couldn't continue like this, and she had to stop it from happening before Youjun went astray.

She held down the hem of her kimono, slowly sat down in front of the boy, and looked at him with a determined gaze.

Just past noon, Yuka came to remind them that lunch was ready, and Kujo Maki led the group to a very spacious restaurant for their meal.

The dishes were naturally very plentiful.

As if knowing my preferences in advance, most of the dishes on the table were Xia Guo cuisine, such as braised lion's head meatballs, Dongpo pork, and crispy roast pigeon, which tasted quite authentic.

The meal was a pleasant one for both the host and guests. After lunch, the group sat down in the pavilion by the pond in the courtyard to chat and digest their food.

Koi carp swim in the pond, and spring water flows in from the artificial hill, cascading down the rock face into the pond, creating ripples. The beautiful scenery, combined with the gentle breeze, makes it exceptionally pleasant.

Nine fox feathers were in charge of preparing the tea. Their slender, fair hands moved gracefully among the tea utensils, each movement exuding elegance and nobility, making them a delight to behold.

"please."

A cup of tea was pushed in front of Han Chuan You.

Han Chuan You picked up the bowl and took a bite.

Kujou Kitsune asked, "How was it?"

Han Chuanyou stared at the girl in front of him: "Very beautiful."

He couldn't taste whether it was good or not, but he could still tell a bit by looking at it.

These words made Kujo Maki chuckle.

"Han Chuan-kun is really interesting."

Nine Fox Feathers couldn't help but glare at him reproachfully.

This guy is at it again.

Masako Yagyu felt a sudden tightness in her chest.

Is Yu-kun really eyeing the power of the Kujo family and making plans for the future?

Just then, a woman in a black suit with a cold expression stepped forward, bent down, and whispered a few words in Kujo Maki's ear.

"is it?"

Kujo Maki looked slightly surprised, her narrow eyes narrowing slightly.

"Go down and double-check. It would be best to find out who did it."

"Yes."

The woman bowed slightly, turned, and withdrew.

"Mother, what is it?"

Kujou Kitsune put down the tea set and asked in confusion.

"The Ashworth family was recently massacred by an unknown force, and even the patriarch has been confirmed dead."

After finishing the last sip of tea, Kujo Maki played with the teacup with her slender fingers, admiring the patterns on it.

"As for the murderer, it is said that there was only one person, yet he was able to cause such great destruction."

She wasn't surprised by the bloodshed in America. The social order was already bad, and the threshold for killing was high. When people were pushed to the limit, there were naturally many who were willing to risk their lives.

The Ashworth family, such a large clan, was almost completely wiped out overnight. No one knows who they offended.

This kind of style is something the Kujo family could never pull off.

"One person?" Kujou Kitsune asked, unintentionally revealing the truth. "How come it's somewhat similar to the Grim Reaper's actions?"

Maki Kujo smiled and nodded: "It is somewhat similar, but obviously impossible. These are all ordinary methods, not the style of a Shinigami."

Upon hearing this, Han Chuanyou took out his phone, searched for keywords, and sure enough, found the recorded footage of the scene.

Thick smoke billowed from the manor, the situation was dire; Vasily had really made a big commotion.

Therefore, these fanatical believers can be terrifying when they go mad, which is precisely why cults need to be curbed.

As the instigator, Han Chuan You did not react much.

What does the crime committed by a fanatical believer have to do with him being an ordinary, model student?

Masako Yagyu had also heard about the feud between the Kujo family and the Ashworth family.

"This should be a good thing for the Kujo family."

Kujo Maki shook her head.

"It's a mixed bag. This blame will likely fall on the Kujo family. Those bandits won't let go of the meat that's about to be in their mouths."

But trading those industries for a chance at peaceful development isn't a particularly bad deal. Assets in California are transferred every quarter precisely to deal with this situation.

For the Kujo family, setting up their businesses in the United States was precisely to align with the government's foreign policy.

With high costs and low profits, why make things difficult for yourself? This also gave the Kujo family a reason to shift their business focus. In her opinion, the neighboring house was a good choice.

After their conversation ended, Han Chuan Youye prepared to take his leave.

"Come visit more often, Hanchuan-kun." Kujo Maki looked at him with a smile. "There are too few children in the manor; it never feels lively enough."

Han Chuanyou nodded: "Yes, thank you for your hospitality."

Kujo Maki intended to have Kujo Kitsune see the guest out, but saw Yagyu Masako get up first.

"Yu-kun, we happen to be going the same way, shall we go together?"

Han Chuan You didn't mind and nodded in agreement.

After Yuu Hakkawa and Masako Yagyu left, Maki Kujo turned her head, a mischievous smile playing on her lips:

"Fox Feather, this kid is a bit too popular. Your Aunt Masako seems to care a lot about him. The Yagyu family is indeed lacking a future head of the family who can carry the torch."

Kujo nods: "I know, so I will act as soon as possible."

Kujo Maki's smile deepened: "Although I really want to help you, I'm not very good at stealing men, so you'll have to rely on yourself."

"No need for Mother's help." Kujou Kitsune's fair and flawless face was full of confidence, and her tone was resolute. "I will take him down."

“Good, as expected of my daughter. I’ll wait until I can hold my grandson.” Kujo Maki added, “By the way, you’re still young. Remember to take precautions when you do that. They say young boys this age are the least able to control themselves.”

Kujou Kitsune felt a deep connection to this; she was somewhat unaccustomed to her mother suddenly bringing up this topic.

"It's not time for that yet, but I'll be careful."

……

Yuu Hanakawa and Masako Yagyu sat in the back seat of the car.

Masako Yagyu asked casually, "Yu-kun has a good impression of fox feathers?"

Han Chuanyu nodded frankly: "As the young lady of Kujou, it's hard for anyone to resist her charm, whether it's her family background or her appearance."

"Indeed it is."

Masako Yagyu nodded in agreement.

He clearly likes me, but he says these things. Is he deliberately trying to express his resentment at my rejection?

She suddenly found the boy's slightly childish behavior quite interesting.

He's just a child, no matter what.

Masako Yagyu smiled gently: "Have you really thought it through, Yu-kun?"

Han Chuanyou smiled frankly: "Not yet. It's mainly about feelings; it always makes one want to be a little more greedy."

really.

Masako Yagyu raised her hand and gently covered her chest.

Yu-kun still wants himself after all.

Is this implying something?

If I don't comply, he will take over the Kujo family and then turn against me.

"Yu-kun, please don't do this."

"what?"

Han Chuan You was somewhat surprised by her sudden strong reaction. Why did it seem like she was plotting something against Aunt Yako?

But he only said that because he thought Aunt Masako didn't want him to hurt Tsurune.

He apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, Aunt Masako, please just consider it as my lack of maturity."

"It's definitely not mature enough."

Yagyu Masako glared at him, her eyes filled with resentment.

In her view, Han Chuanyou is not a bad person at heart; he just needs someone to guide him.

But getting the other person to give up on you is probably very difficult.

"I just hope you can think it over carefully and not hurt Xianyin in the end. She's not good at expressing herself, but I can tell she likes you a lot."

"Yes, I will be careful. Please give me some time, Aunt Yako. I can't make any promises to you at this stage."

Still unwilling to give up on yourself?

Masako Yagyu sighed, wanting to refuse again, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.

If anyone's to blame, it's themselves for being too charming, enough to make Han Chuan You's heart flutter.

The woman looked out the window, becoming sentimental once again.

After sending Han Chuanyu home, Yagyu Masako also went home not long after.

Inside the living room, Yagyu Genon had just finished her swordsmanship training and taken a shower. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her aloof demeanor had softened somewhat.

Anna leaned against her sister, scrolling through YouTube videos, a smile occasionally appearing on her lips.

Upon seeing Yagyu Masako return, Yagyu Genon greeted her.

"Mother, welcome home."

"Ah."

Masako Yagyu responded, her eyes fixed on the girl, her expression slightly grave.

"Xuan Yin, I'm so sorry."

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Yagyu Genon was momentarily stunned.

"nothing."

Yagyu Masako sighed deeply again and slowly walked upstairs.

Knowing full well the enormity of her sins, she needed some peace and quiet.

……

"Mizuki, I'm back."

"How is the Kujo family?"

Having just run ten kilometers on the treadmill, Han Chuan Meiyue, wearing a sports vest and sharkskin pants, lay on the tatami mat, still not quite recovered. Her tone was slightly unsteady, with a sexy yet languid finish.

“It’s huge, huge in every sense of the word. It’s a good thing you didn’t buy one of those big houses, Mizuki.”

"As if I could afford it."

Upon entering, he saw such a delicate body lying on the ground, with large expanses of fair skin exposed to the air. Han Chuanyou couldn't help but lie down on top of her and pin her down.

Mizuki's body was warm and soft after exercising, and the pressure felt comfortable.

"It's all sweaty, don't you find it smelly?"

"It doesn't smell bad, it smells delicious."
