I practiced as a monk alone in Japan.

Chapter 212 Free-Range Pets

"Why did you decide to eat here?"

"This was just taken over from Nakajima. I heard it had a good reputation, so I thought I'd give it a try."

"Hehe, I think you're just showing off. It's like a hunter who, after catching his prey, can't wait to tell everyone how delicious it was."

The woman wearing sunglasses took them off in the private room, revealing her eyes, which had appeared countless times on the screen, and her signature beauty mark.

Opposite her was Shiramine Koyo, with her long gray hair.

They rarely eat together, let alone have the opportunity to dine out together.

Bai Feng Hongye was well aware that her aunt's relationship with that young man was far from over, and that she was clearly falling deeper and deeper into it. She also knew that the young man's intimidating power was a fact that she could not change.

She seemed to be in control of the organization, but in reality, she could only comply with whatever the boy asked.

However, she still couldn't find anyone she could trust more than this woman, nor could she find anyone she could be closer to.

Unfounded feelings may not be realistic, but as long as you don't say it, you may be able to maintain that right forever.

"No, Auntie is making me sound like a child. I really just wanted to have dinner with you."

"Really? Shouldn't you be having dinner with Tsukino Gen?"

Mochizuki Miki asked with a smile.

Bai Feng Hongye rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Why would I invite him to dinner?"

She now wishes she would never see him again, because seeing him reminds her of the fact that she is just a puppet.

Without his permission, I might not be able to make any decisions at all.

Mochizuki Miki clearly understood this as well, and she sighed softly.

“You don’t need to make your relationship with him so strained. In fact, up to now, apart from the initial demands and conditions, he hasn’t interfered in the internal affairs of the White Summit. This is to show you that he doesn’t care about these interests or the organization. He has no grudge against you.”

Shiramine Koyo doesn't quite trust Tsukino Gen, nor does she seem to see things as clearly as Mochizuki Miki.

After all, he's an insider, and now he holds a high position. The more you value something, the less you can see it clearly.

"I see."

Although he said that, he clearly didn't accept it.

"Okay, let's serve the food first. I'm going to the restroom."

Mochizuki Miki put her sunglasses back on and stood up. She was indeed worried about her niece. After all, in her view, her niece had excellent qualities but also personality flaws. The biggest problem was that she couldn't bear to part with her.

Fortunately, I'm still alive, so this potential problem won't surface. If Tsukino Gen is just comforting me and doesn't have a solution to my problem, it might really become a future issue. But that's something I can't see now.

Just then, she stepped out of the private room. She happened to see a familiar figure walking in with a young man.

Ordinary people would naturally not care.

But this girl in the school uniform was clearly with Tsukino Gen last time, and she even took a picture with me.
What's happening here?
She didn't think it was possible for a woman to be so foolish as to have a close relationship with a guy like Tsukino Gen while secretly being unfaithful, but she couldn't rule out the possibility that such an unbelievable thing could happen in this world.

She noticed something was wrong after watching for only a short while.

So she thought for a moment, then called over a waiter and asked him to listen carefully to what the other table was talking about.

He then returned to the private room.

When they returned, Baifeng Hongye asked curiously, "Why did you stay out for so long?"

Mochizuki Miki shook her head. "It's nothing, I just ran into a friend."

"A friend? Should we greet them, or should we treat them properly?"

Let's wait and see.

The two chatted for a while, then the waiter knocked on the door, and Mochizuki Miki let the person in.

The other party truthfully recounted what had happened at that table and the content of the conversation he had overheard.

Shiramine Koyo gradually understood what was going on.

She couldn't help but look at her aunt.

"Everyone around him is in quite a bit of trouble, and they're all such beautiful girls. So, Auntie, are you planning to watch the show, or tell him what's going on here?"

Mochizuki Miki smiled as she looked at Shiramine Koyo.

"A thoughtful woman shouldn't always tell her man about her difficulties and troubles. If she's capable, she should deal with them first, and then tell him. That will make things much better."

"What do you mean, 'your own man'? When did he become your man?"

Bai Feng Hongye couldn't help but mutter, then added, "I've never seen anyone so magnanimous that you're even helping him deal with his woman's affairs."

"Is he very generous?"

Mochizuki Miki asked with a smile.

"Aren't you being magnanimous? I can't even see a hint of jealousy on your face. Is your aunt just playing around?"

This situation seemed to rekindle some hope in the young woman's heart.

Mochizuki Miki thought for a moment, "Actually, at first I was just thinking of having some fun. After all, he's incredibly capable, so handsome, and most importantly, so young. By all accounts, having some fun would be a win for me. But now..."

"What now?"

"I don't know why, but I feel like he's letting me roam free. Even though I don't usually get much attention from him, and he doesn't spend much time with me, I just can't help but want to do things to please him."

This statement utterly shocked Shiramine Koyo's worldview.

What made her feel even more desperate was the expression on Mochizuki Miki's face when she said those words; it wasn't troubled or confused at all.

On the contrary, it is a kind of enjoyment, even an obsession.

It was as if the boy was right in front of her.

It's beyond saving, truly beyond saving.

Mochizuki Miki smiled at the other party, "Alright, have your people handle it. I'll tell him now."

"I see."

This dinner was another waste of effort.

Bai Feng Hongye thought to himself helplessly.

When Gen Tsukino received the call and rushed to what appeared to be an old warehouse, it was already dark.

When he arrived, the person waiting for him outside the door was none other than Shiramine Koyo.

Gen Tsukino feigned surprise as he looked at the young woman with gray hair. "What? Miss Shiramine, you're not the president anymore, but a doorman here?"

Bai Feng Hongye forced a stiff smile, but she couldn't directly refute the boy, so she could only remain polite.

"Mr. Tsukino, you're too kind. I waited here especially for you, afraid you wouldn't be able to find the place." "How thoughtful of you! Where's your aunt?"

"It's inside."

"Row."

Then Shiramine Koyo opened the warehouse door and let Tsukino Gen in.

As soon as I entered, I smelled a strong stench of blood and saw a man and a woman, their faces bruised and swollen, tied directly to two pillars and being exposed to direct light.

They've all lost their age.

The Asada mother and son inside also had no idea who this handsome young man who had suddenly entered was, nor did they know why they had suffered such a terrible fate.

They barely exchanged a few words before being brutally beaten.

Crying for help is useless! How can this be? Isn't this a society governed by law? Where is the rule of law? Can they ever reintegrate into society?

"gentlemen!"

Upon seeing Tsukino Gen enter, the men who had participated in the fight immediately addressed him respectfully.

They also knew the rules and wouldn't address each other by their surnames, so as not to expose the boy who didn't want to be exposed.

Gen Tsukino nodded, then looked at the young woman who was giving him a seductive smile.

"Why did you call me over when you've gotten yourself into this state?"

Mochizuki Miki smiled and said, "After all, it's about your girlfriend, so I don't know how to handle it in the end."

What were you originally thinking?

"Should we just make them disappear? These kinds of people don't contribute anything to society anyway, and they might never learn their lesson."

"No, no, no!! Please, please, spare our lives! We beg you, we don't know where we've offended you, but we'll do whatever you ask! Just spare our lives!!"

Hiroshi Asada trembled all over when he heard the word "disappear".

He's accomplished nothing yet still managed to do quite well, so he's certainly not a fool. He clearly knows that these people in front of him are not people he can afford to offend; they could wipe out his entire family with a snap of their fingers.

But what exactly did I do to offend them?

Was it because you were talking too loudly in the restaurant?

Is being arrogant a crime?!

He didn't understand at all.

Gen Tsukino glanced at Miki Mochizuki, then walked up to the two women who were already weeping uncontrollably.

There was a puddle of liquid on the ground; it was hard to tell if it was tears, saliva, sweat, or something else. Anyway, it smelled awful.

He looked at the two of them without saying much.

Do you know Kazama Sakura?

"I know her, she's my cousin!"

Asada Hiro was stunned.

Why did you bring up your charming cousin?

and many more.

Could it be that some powerful figure wants to use them to threaten that girl? If so, he might be willing, but Kazama Sakura might not care about their lives.

"very good."

Gen Tsukino nodded.

“From now on, every time you contact their family because of her father’s situation, your family will lose a member. Do you understand?”

"How could this be? How could it be related to her?"

Aunt Asada also realized what was happening.

She just couldn't understand how such an easy-to-manage orphan and widow could get involved with such an important figure.
What about the house?
What about his younger brother?
this.
Gen Tsukino could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her blank expression. He wasn't afraid of people like that being bad, but rather worried that they were too stupid. They always seemed to misunderstand the situation and cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

So he stood up and then lifted his leg.

"boom!!"

The kick 'grazed' Aunt Asada's scalp.

She felt as if an earthquake was about to strike.

The deafening roar almost made her deaf, and she felt as if her soul had left her body. Was she still alive?
She couldn't even move her lips; all she could manage was an instinctive scream.

Once she came to her senses and her willpower returned a little, she saw the handsome young man looking at her with a smile on his face.

"You don't need to know why I brought her up. Just know that if your family dares to harass them again, your whole family is finished."

After saying this, Tsukino Gen stood up and looked at the others.

"Let them go, let's go."

"Yes!"

As a large group of people left in a grand procession.

It took a long time for the two, who had already been untied, to come to their senses. Aunt Asada was only just helped up by her son.

My back ached and I didn't even have time to cry out before I saw my son's astonished expression, as if he had seen a ghost.

At this point, Aunt Asada was really too frightened to take any more shocks; she was no longer recognizable as human.

Who would have thought these bastards would even hit a woman my age! They're utterly inhuman!
"What's wrong with you? Why are you spacing out? Don't scare me!"

Hiroshi Asada pointed shakily to the pillar where she had just been tied.

Aunt Asada looked over.

Shocking discovery.

That was the spot above my head, seemingly the place where that boy's inexplicable kick landed.
Thick reinforced concrete pillars.

It was like being bitten hard by a wild beast; the missing chunk was still falling with new bits of dust.
Aunt Asada looked at her son with a pale face.

"The Kazama Family Affairs"

Asada Hiroshi, his face flushed, shouted, "Never mention those two words again!!"
