Tokyo Sword Saint Online Dealing

Kudo Yuichi shrugged and said casually, "If you don't apologize, I'll arrest you too, for the reason of... obstructing official business?"

Ryosuke Yamamoto sneered, turned and left, clearly not taking Yuichi Kudo's words to heart.

Although those task forces were armed with real guns, he was confident that they wouldn't dare to do anything to him.

The Kudo and Yamamoto families haven't reached the point of turning against each other.

Kudo Yuichi had anticipated his reaction. He smiled slightly and casually remarked something that made Yamamoto Ryosuke stop in his tracks.

"Yamamoto, where did you spend the night last night?"

These inexplicable words caused cold sweat to break out on Yamamoto Ryosuke's forehead once again.

"What do you mean!"

Without realizing it, Yamamoto Ryosuke's tone softened considerably, without even noticing it himself.

Kudo Yuichi ignored him and continued talking to himself.

"I heard, Yamamoto, that you and the eldest daughter of the Ikeda family have just gotten engaged?"

"Hey, I was wondering why your old man has suddenly become so confident lately, daring to challenge my old man like this. Yeah, the Ikeda family has deep roots in the Ministry of Justice and holds a significant position in a certain political party. The cooperation between the Ikeda and Yamamoto families is going to give my old man a headache for a while."

"Yes, congratulations, congratulations!"

"Is this the secret to your rapid promotion to superintendent? I bet it won't be long before you advance even further; your career prospects are excellent!"

Kudo Yuichi wasn't kind enough to praise Yamamoto Ryosuke; the next sentence is the turning point.

"I've heard that too. The eldest daughter of the Ikeda family has a fiery temper and rather avant-garde ideas. She studied abroad and is quite opinionated. She was already extremely opposed to this marriage. Tell me, what would her reaction be if she knew that her fiancé frequented high-class brothels in Ginza every day, ordering several hostesses to have fun together and partying every night?"

"You know, Yamamoto, my family's detective agency is quite famous. Coincidentally, yesterday a few of my detectives went to a brothel to relax and happened to run into you and those hot Russian girls doing that great thing. Do you want me to help you review it?"

Kudo Yuichi reached out and picked up a cell phone, turned on the speakerphone, and obscene moans and suppressed male roars immediately filled the air, causing everyone present to have somewhat subtle expressions.

How could such a short film, which could be sold directly as AV, possibly have been "coincidentally" filmed?

It seems someone has installed a camera in the room, and Inspector Yamamoto probably hasn't noticed yet!

To be honest, this is not a mistake. Normally, if Kudo Yuichi used this to attack him, Yamamoto Ryosuke would probably just laugh at him.

It's too easy to explain. It was consensual, so it can't be used as a crime.

However, at this crucial moment when he had just gotten engaged to the eldest daughter of the Ikeda family, and at a critical juncture in the cooperation between the two families, if such bad news were to spread about him, his father would break all three of his legs.

Beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolled down his face incessantly. Ryosuke Yamamoto's face was a mixture of anger and shame, like a spilled palette of paints, a kaleidoscope of colors.

Kudo Yuichi casually tossed the phone to Yamamoto Ryosuke, saying unhurriedly, "Here, take it and look at it yourself. Don't turn it off yet. There's a little gift I prepared for you at the back. I hope you like it."

Ryosuke Yamamoto trembled as he closed the video, swiped his phone a few times, and his face grew even paler.

The photos and information that followed were basically all about his weaknesses and dark history.

Colluding with gangs for profit, providing shelter for illegal religions, covering up several drug deals, engaging in erotic transactions with certain third-rate female celebrities, conspiring with real estate companies to coerce and entice the acquisition of several plots of land, and even driving several small business owners to bankruptcy and suicide—the list goes on and on.

He's just a spoiled brat and can't stand any investigation.

If it were just one charge, his family could probably help him cover it up. But with so many charges piled up, plus the falling out with the Ikeda family, his career is probably over.

Knowing his father as he did, he was absolutely capable of sacrificing a pawn to save the king. Even raising another child would be easier than helping him escape.

"Are you angry? You can smash your phone to vent your anger. I have as many backups as you need."

"Yamamoto, we've known each other for quite a while now, and as friends, I'll get you on TV and in the newspapers tomorrow. I know some pretty good hackers, and tomorrow night at eight o'clock, I'll get half of Tokyo's TV stations to broadcast your adult film. What do you think?"

Without saying a word, Yamamoto Ryosuke walked silently to Uesugi Kiyoshi, bowed, and apologized loudly in a trembling voice.

"Excuse me, please!"

As a scion of a powerful family, although he was a spoiled brat, he understood the principle of being flexible and adaptable. If he lost his power, his fate might be worse than death.

He has quite a few enemies.

Kudo Yuichi clicked his tongue and said casually, "Isn't it common sense to kneel down when apologizing?"

Ryosuke Yamamoto's face flushed red, then turned pale. He gritted his teeth, knelt down with a thud, and performed a dogeza (a traditional Japanese kneeling posture).

"I'm sorry, please forgive me!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi was somewhat dumbfounded.

This was the first time he had ever seen his friend so sharp and aggressive.

When he met Kudo Yuichi's amused gaze, he felt a chill run down his spine, realizing that things might not be so simple.

So, Uesugi Kiyoshi took half a step back, making room for Kudo Yuichi.

Kudo Yuichi walked over with a smile, squatted down, and gently patted Yamamoto Ryosuke's fair face, making a crisp, pleasant slapping sound.

"Wouldn't it have been better to do this sooner? Isn't it a bit too late now?"

Ryosuke Yamamoto moved his lips, but before he could speak, he was slapped hard across the face.

Kudo Yuichi smiled coldly: "If apologies were enough, what would be the point of having police?"

"You should understand this principle, shouldn't you, Inspector Yamamoto?"

Before he could finish speaking, a barrage of punches and kicks began, making Uesugi Kiyoshi frown.

Ryosuke Yamamoto curled up on the ground like a punching bag, clutching his head. His previous arrogance and domineering attitude were nowhere to be seen. He was being mercilessly ravaged by Yuichi Kudo, and soon his head was bleeding and his clothes were tattered.

Half a minute later, Kudo Yuichi stepped on Yamamoto Ryosuke's chest. He seemed to be tired from hitting him, panting heavily, and whispered, "Yamamoto, I'll let you go this time."

"These things are in my hands. From now on, don't try to fool me when I ask you to do something."

"Have you thought this through? It would be too easy for me to destroy you. The reason I haven't touched you yet is because it's hard for the Yamamoto family to find someone dumber than you. An opponent like you makes things much easier for me."

"."

"get out!"

As if granted a pardon, Yamamoto Ryosuke scrambled to his feet and ran away, covering his face.

Uesugi Kiyoshi frowned as he watched Kudo Yuichi's performance, his mind filled with doubts.

Not to mention that Kudo Yuichi was acting strangely today—his impression on Uesugi Kiyoshi had always been that of a "brain-type player," someone who worked hard with his mind but not his body, and who was gentle and refined.

It's hard to reconcile him with the decisive figure he is today, who seizes the enemy's weakness, launches a fierce attack, and then mercilessly strikes when the enemy is down.

Moreover, what he did today was somewhat inappropriate.

Threatening Yamamoto Ryosuke is fine, but it shouldn't be done in public.

With so many people talking, what if someone accidentally lets something slip? Wouldn't all our efforts be wasted?

Tilting his head and thinking for a moment, Uesugi Kiyoshi said in a deep voice, "Yuichi, aren't you afraid that he'll turn against you and cause trouble?"

Kudo Yuichi dusted off his clothes, smiled knowingly, and said meaningfully, "Ha, I just hope he can do something bad to me."

"I hope he has the guts. Otherwise, all my efforts will have been in vain."

"Alright, Qing, my work is done."

"It's your turn next."

Kudo Yuichi shrugged, took a few steps back, revealing a woman in a suit with a delicate, nervous, and somewhat innocent expression.

Uesugi Kiyoshi gripped the sword hilt again and said happily, "Alright, leave it to me!"

Chapter 173 Let her escape for a while

Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't have many concerns about the civilians present. The Collectors Association had a set of methods to distinguish between ritual practitioners and ordinary people. He would take them back for testing to ensure that they wouldn't be wrongly accused.

Although it is unknown how Ryunosuke Akutagawa managed to do it, the Collectors Association in Tokyo has law enforcement powers that are comparable to those of the police.

Now that the people in the way have been driven away by Kudo Yuichi in a very direct way, all that's left is the main character.

Taking a slight step forward while holding his sword, Uesugi Kiyoshi stood in front of the woman in the suit, smiling slightly, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"Are you going to surrender without resistance, or put up a token resistance and have your fish head chopped off like your companions?"

His voice was cold and carried an unquestionable authority.

In recent days, as more and more demons and spirits have been killed by Uesugi Kiyoshi, his every move has carried a hint of murderous intent. Even when he speaks and acts politely, he unconsciously gives people a sense of unusual sharpness.

This made the woman in the suit in front of him look somewhat timid, not daring to look him directly in the eye, though it was unclear whether she was faking it.

"Officer, what are you saying?"

"We are a legitimate church, registered with the relevant authorities, and we have not done anything illegal. Is there some misunderstanding?"

The woman in the suit had a soft, sweet voice that easily attracted men, which was probably one of the reasons why the place was packed with worshippers.

However, Uesugi Kiyoshi clearly wasn't buying it.

He suppressed his smile, gave a cold snort, and seemingly unintentionally patted her shoulder lightly.

"Since you're so confident, then come with us. If it's proven that you're indeed innocent, then I'll personally apologize to you—however, I personally think I'm afraid I won't live to see that day."

With a mocking look that seemed to carry a hint of bloodlust, Uesugi Seiichi ended the brief conversation with a wave of his hand.

The fully armed task force immediately stepped forward, even using restraints to tie the woman in the suit up tightly.

Surprisingly, she did not resist.

The woman lowered her head, her bangs falling from her forehead and obscuring her eyes, making it impossible to see her expression. She simply stood there quietly, seemingly having given up on arguing or resisting.

Uesugi Kiyoshi squinted and took a few steps back, keeping an eye on the woman in the suit out of the corner of his eye, while also talking non-stop.

"It went surprisingly smoothly. Alright, now can you tell me why you just attacked that spoiled brat?"

"In my memory, if you choose to deal with him, a few phone calls would probably be enough to take care of him completely."

"It's ungentlemanly to do it yourself. You've also found his weakness. Even someone like him might do something desperate when cornered."

Yuichi Kudo leaned against the window, looking at the wind and rain outside, his smile intriguing.

"I'm afraid he won't jump."

"Qing, do you know what I've been doing these past few days?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi raised an eyebrow and tentatively asked, "To keep your little... oh, no, big girlfriend company?"

Kudo Yuichi's face visibly stiffened. His eyebrows twitched, and he said expressionlessly, "Kana and I are living together. Do I need to be by her side every day? Use your brain. We're practically childhood friends!"

Uesugi Seiichi shrugged and readily sold out Akutagawa Ryunosuke.
