The Legend of Tokyo Taoist

Chapter 280 Chapter In the Name of Youth

After confirming the cooperative relationship, Qian Xiaoyi took the opportunity to ask Shichijo Masato to get him a WTV ID card. In the future, even if there were no other staff members to greet him, he would be able to move freely in the WTV building, but he was still limited to the studio and office floors. But even so, it gave Qian Xiaoyi great convenience.

After a conversation, he finally understood what made Shichijo Masato so insecure.

Masato Shichijo has been an excellent student since childhood and went abroad during high school, so he has basically no contact with his family's business. He came back this time because his brother was sick, so he was needed to come back just in case.

Although the Nanajyo Group has invested in many industries, the entertainment industry is their core business, so it was natural for Nanajyo Masato to join WTV.

Originally, his family planned to give him a nominal position as managing director at WTV, where he would observe and learn for a period of time before participating in management. However, it was Shichijo Masato who decided to go to the "grassroots level" himself, because he thought that this would allow him to get a more intuitive understanding of the company's operations.

In the original plan, his identity should have been hidden. Except for a few senior executives, no one below would know that he was the president's grandson.

As a result, he was recognized on his first day at the post, and everyone respectfully called him "Mr. Nanajo" instead of his alias.

Then he realized that he was exposed on the first day of his "incognito visit".

When I asked those grassroots employees how they knew their identities, the answer I got was that everyone knew that the chairman's grandson was going to work at the TV station, and it had already spread everywhere...

This made Masato Nanajo feel very uneasy. The top management of WTV seemed to be deliberately excluding him, which meant that the Nanajo family's control over their own company was no longer as strong as before.

But in Qian Xiaoyi's opinion, this is normal, because there are many examples of companies collapsing due to the induction of rich second-generations into important positions. Perhaps the top management of WTV has this consideration. The struggle for power is often like this. It is hard to tell who is right or wrong. Everyone stands in his own position, tearing at each other's interests.

But this has nothing to do with Qian Xiaoyi. He doesn't care who is good or bad in WTV, who is a parasite or a loyal minister. All he wants is to explore the entire building and then get his commission.

After the Halloween special was broadcast, the employees at WTV basically regarded Qian Xiaoyi as one of their own. In addition, with the consultant badge on his chest, he used the excuse of "looking at feng shui" to check the entire building below the 18th floor, and basically nothing was missed.

But I still couldn't find anything related to "Studio 0" and Usa Mi Sakura.

Fortunately, all of this was just a side job. His consulting job in the building was easy. He would take some time every week to help record the opening credits for "Horror Night GO", watch "Ghost Story Forecast" in the evening, and that was it.

The rest can be left to the program team. He basically only appears at the opening and ending credits of the show and is considered the mascot of the show.

The rest of the time is spent on handling commissions. The firm's business has been very good recently. Many clients who suspect that their homes are haunted by ghosts have come to Qian Xiaoyi. Most of these people are outsiders working in Tokyo. After all, if they are locals, they will definitely look for temples and shrines they are familiar with.

However, Tokyo is a metropolis with many people coming from other places to work and settle down, so they naturally prefer famous exorcists like Qian Xiaoyi.

So during this period, Qian Xiaoyi met with clients in the office in the morning, and took Inuyama Heita around to handle commissions in the afternoon and evening. It can be said that he changed from his previous leisurely life to being quite busy. Even Suzuki, who was responsible for receiving guests, doubled his hourly wage.

"Huh~ I scared myself again this time~" That night, Qian Xiaoyi and Inuyama Heita returned to the office at night.

Today they handled another commission. A human-shaped stain appeared in the corner of a family's wall. The family was scared and had nightmares every night. As a result, when they went to check, they found that it was just a broken water pipe in the wall, which caused water leakage and mold.

The nightmare was caused by the depressing layout of the house and the human-shaped mold. So Qian Xiaoyi took a compass and pretended to arrange the Feng Shui for them, changed the positions of several furniture, and sold a few house-protecting items before returning.

Although this kind of commission is easy to do, there is no sense of accomplishment. But there is no way. In fact, most of the commissions of exorcists are like this. There are very few real supernatural events. "Go home and rest early today." Qian Xiaoyi opened the refrigerator and threw a bottle of juice to Inuyama Heita, saying, "Come over tomorrow afternoon. There is another commission in Toshima District."

Inuyama Heita took the juice, thought for a moment, and said, "Well... I don't think I can go tomorrow, and it will be like this for the next few days."

"Huh? Why?" Qian Xiaoyi asked curiously. Inuyama Heita should be very happy to help with such an easy commission. Although the commission is small, it is simple and he can get money for just running errands. So he should be happy to do it, right?

"The school is holding a cultural festival." Inuyama Heita opened the ring and said, "We want to help set up the event."

"School festival..." Qian Xiaoyi touched his chin and said, "Does it really exist? It feels a bit second-year, just like in a comic book."

Inuyama Heita looked at him strangely: "This is a very common activity, right? Basically 99% of schools in Japan will hold it... Don't you have similar activities over there, Brother O?"

Qian Xiaoyi thought for a moment and said, "No, it seems that we only have sports meets every year. Even clubs only exist after college. But I didn't go to college, so I haven't seen them."

"Eh~ So that's how it is?" said Inuyama Heita.

Qian Xiaoyi narrowed his eyes: "Why do I feel like there is a tone of 'Wow~ Brother Yi is so pitiful' in your words?"

"No, you're overthinking it." Inuyama Heita looked away and took a sip of the juice.

"That's exactly what you mean!" Qian Xiaoyi said angrily, "It's just that you haven't participated in any clubs or cultural festivals. This is normal in our area. After all, it's just an activity that exudes the sour smell of high school students in heat. What's so interesting about it!"

"Huff, huff, huff~ Brother Yi, you're angry and embarrassed." Ajian suddenly appeared, covering his mouth and laughing.

Qian Xiaoyi grabbed Ajian's head and threw him into the storage room, where the cheers of children and Ajian's screams were instantly heard. A white shadow jumped out from the fox statue on the table and ran inside to join in the fun.

"Ahem~" Qian Xiaoyi asked, "Is that cultural festival... open to the public?"

Inuyama Heita nodded: "Yes, people outside can also come in and visit."

Qian Xiaoyi said with disdain: "Then you can arrange it well, and I will go to visit it reluctantly when the time comes."

"What about the commission?" asked Inuyama Heita.

"Take a short break, and it's the same if you postpone it to the evening." Qian Xiaoyi moved his shoulders and said, "I'm really tired these days, running around."

"Oh."
