My life in the underworld begins at the Takayanagi family!

Akizuki Airi knew what her older sister was worried about, so she directly explained why she said that: she saw Akizuki Kozo was unhappy.

Marina Akizuki didn't react to Ichiro Takayanagi's words, so she understood that Airi Akizuki really thought that way, and there was no need for her to try to persuade her anymore.

Although Akizuki Kozo has regained the strength to speak, he can only say one sentence at a time, and it is unknown when he will be able to speak again.

"Kōzō-kun, what do you think would happen if we experimented on you with this half-finished product of your research?"

The reason Takayanagi Ichiro squatted there was because he could pick things up from there.

It was the bottle that had fallen from his hand shortly after he had held it up, after Akizuki Airi struck it with a hammer.

The glass bottle is very shatterproof and protective; it didn't break or leak when it fell to the ground.

You could see before that the liquid inside the glass bottle was pink, but it still had a slightly reddish tinge.

Now, after landing on the ground and shaking, and after the collision, it has become even more extremely pink.

Upon hearing Takayanagi Ichiro's question, Akizuki Kozo's face showed fear.

He didn't want to experiment on himself with this kind of thing, so he tried shaking his head directly.

Unfortunately, he only regained a little bit of his ability to speak and didn't have much strength, so the extent of his head shaking was only a little.

"You're actually shaking your head in denial at this point? If I hadn't intervened, you probably would have used this on Airi and Marina."

I thought it was just a chat between Ichiro Takayanagi and Kozo Akizuki, but I didn't expect the conversation to eventually turn back to their sisters.

"Dad, what exactly is that bottle?"

Akizuki Airi became alert. If it weren't for Takayanagi Ichiro, that bottle might have become a nightmare for the sisters.

"Although I am not the most professional researcher, this thing is quite similar to a drug."

If someone accidentally eats it, it might turn into a docile, obedient being, or it might unleash extreme desires.

At that time, regardless of who or what the other person is, one hopes to find comfort in them.

"Aphrodisiac?"

After listening to Ichiro Takayanagi's introduction, Hanako Akizuki directly revealed what Kozo Akizuki was researching.

She is an adult after all, and knows a little more.

"Mom, what is that?"

Akizuki Airi and Akizuki Marina both had their own guesses, but since their mother had given an explanation, they naturally had to listen to her.

"It's similar to the method that boy used last time, but according to the master, it's much more powerful."

Anyway, you two must be more careful about this kind of situation in the future, and absolutely must not get hurt.

There are actually some things that Akizuki Hanako didn't mention; she didn't want her two daughters to experience the darkness of this world.

With Ichiro Takayanagi's protection, the two of them will certainly have a better life, but Akizuki Hanako still wants to remind her two daughters to be more vigilant.

After hearing Akizuki Hanako's explanation, Akizuki Airi and Akizuki Marina's expressions changed, and they became even more disgusted with Akizuki Kozo.

Kōzō Akizuki not only harbors evil thoughts towards them, but now he is also conducting evil research, intending to use it on them.

Airi Akizuki wanted to get up and teach Kozo Akizuki another lesson, but Marina Akizuki stopped her.

Akizuki Kozo is indeed despicable, but now that Takayanagi Ichiro is helping to deal with them, there's no need to take any risks.

You can't do this to me.

Kozo Akizuki was finally able to say another sentence: he begged Ichiro Takayanagi to spare him and not use him as an experiment on his unfinished product.

"Since it's something you researched, of course you should use yourself to conduct the experiments."

"Don't you want your ten million yen back? And the ten million yen in interest as well?"

In order to survive, Akizuki Kozo displayed a strong will to live and directly began negotiations with Takayanagi Ichiro.

He borrowed 10 million yen from Ichiro Takayanagi for a period of one month.

When the time comes, he will have to repay 20 million yen and hand over all his invention patents to Ichiro Takayanagi.

If his invention succeeds, he can definitely make a greater profit by turning it into a mass-produced product and selling it. This is why Akizuki Kozo was confident enough to invite Takayanagi Ichiro to come here.

But now, Takayanagi Ichiro is acting without any sense of honor and doesn't want the ten million yen loan anymore.

“I now possess Hua Daizi and the others. In my eyes, they are not just worth ten million, but even more than one hundred million. They are priceless in my heart.”

After hearing Takayanagi Ichiro's response, Akizuki Hanako and the other two also learned that Akizuki Kozo had taken out a loan of ten million yen from Takayanagi Ichiro.

This made Akizuki Hanako a little sad. Was she really only worth ten million yen in Akizuki Kozo's heart?

Fortunately, Ichiro Takayanagi's response warmed the hearts of all three of them.

If Ichiro Takayanagi were to truly measure the three of them by their monetary value, they wouldn't have any objections.

But now that Ichiro Takayanagi says that all three of them are priceless, their hearts have completely melted.

Chapter 248 Marina, please take good care of your sister and mother.

Ten million yen was nothing to Ichiro Takayanagi, but for Kozo Akizuki, it was the research funding he had always dreamed of.

However, his research had encountered some problems, and ten million yen was far from enough. That's why he invited Takayanagi Ichiro to his home to enjoy his wife, and in return, he agreed to lend him another ten million yen.

To Akizuki Kozo's surprise, his attempt to steal a chicken backfired spectacularly.

Not only has he given away his wife, but now his two daughters have also become Takayanagi Ichiro's toys.

Whether it's Akizuki Kayoko or the sisters Akizuki Airi and Akizuki Marina, it's obvious to anyone with eyes that they thoroughly enjoy being with Takayanagi Ichiro, and it's entirely of their own free will.

However, in Akizuki Kozo's mind, he still believed that Takayanagi Ichiro had threatened the three of them.

Otherwise, why would you have one attitude towards him and another towards Takayanagi Ichiro?

Could it be because Ichiro Takayanagi is a little more handsome and a little more rich than him?

His research could continue as long as Ichiro Takayanagi agreed to lend him the money.

Once the product is successfully researched and produced, he will definitely become a millionaire, and at that time he may be able to rival the wealth of Takayanagi Ichiro.

Unfortunately, all of this is just his imagination now, because it is absolutely impossible for Takayanagi Ichiro to lend him money at this time.

Moreover, they would use his unfinished products to research the product and conduct experiments on him.

“If you do anything to me, the police will definitely not let you off the hook.”

At this point, Akizuki Kozo could only place his hopes on the police.

If Takayanagi Ichiro really did something inappropriate to him, he would retain his last bit of consciousness and place all the blame on Takayanagi Ichiro. He didn't believe that Takayanagi Ichiro could go against the police.

"You're really a bit of a joke. You're thinking about doing those illegal and unethical things, but you never thought that the police would investigate you."

Now that there's a slight danger to their lives, they're placing their hopes on the police again. Isn't that a bit of a double standard?

After finishing his sentence, Takayanagi Ichiro didn't linger and immediately opened the glass bottle.

Then he pulled it to Akizuki Kozo's lips and poured all the medicine into his mouth.

Under normal circumstances, Akizuki Kozo would certainly be able to resist.

Unfortunately, he had taken a solid hit from Akizuki Airi's hammer, and he had lost the ability to move.

He has only recently regained his ability to speak, and it will be a long time before he can say a single sentence again.

Now he could only watch helplessly as Takayanagi Ichiro forced him to drink that half-finished product, and he was filled with regret.

Why seek help from Ichiro Takayanagi and get a loan from him?

If it were a loan from someone else, it would be absolutely impossible to use Akizuki Hanako as collateral.

So after the loan is used up, you can use other methods to apply for another loan as collateral, and it is impossible to give up your two daughters.

In Akizuki Kozo's mind, Takayanagi Ichiro is now a devilish figure, and he may have known all about him long ago.

Whether it's the collateral or the current situation, everything is under his control and design, intended to completely shatter his spirit.

"You're going to die badly."

Kozo Akizuki wanted to spit out the medicine in his mouth, but Ichiro Takayanagi grabbed his hair and straightened his head so that he couldn't spit out the medicine.

So in the end, Akizuki Kozo drank all the pink medicine in the bottle by himself.

"You need to taste the potion you make yourself, otherwise how will you know how to improve it?"

Takayanagi Ichiro didn't feel that he was being cruel at all. Instead, he reminded Akizuki Kozo that he was helping Akizuki Kozo improve his drug research.

Qiu Yuehua and the other two stood to the side, showing no intention of stopping them at all.

After learning about Akizuki Kozo's evil intentions and his wicked research, the three of them were filled with hatred towards him.

If they weren't worried about taking lives, they might have killed Akizuki Kozo.

Seeing that Akizuki Kozo had drunk the pink medicine and was now motionless, Akizuki Marina felt a little flustered.

The three of them didn't want to be implicated in someone's death, but they also didn't want Takayanagi Ichiro to be implicated in someone's death, especially since it was for their sake.

"Dad, is he dead?"

Previously, she called Takayanagi Ichiro "Mr. Takayanagi," but now Akizuki Marina calls him "Dad" to maintain consistency with her younger sister.

Upon hearing about the change in how she addressed her older sister, Akizuki Airi smiled. This was the older sister with whom she shared a deep understanding.

"Don't worry, this stuff isn't poison; it's more like a tonic. Look, he can move now."

Upon hearing this, the three of them, including Akizuki Kazuko, looked at Akizuki Kozo lying on the ground and indeed found that Akizuki Kozo's body was twisting.

Previously, Akizuki Kozo had been lying stiffly on the ground like a corpse, and apart from being able to move his eyes, he was completely like a dead person.

Fortunately, he has regained the strength to speak, but his speech has a time limit, and it takes him quite a while to be able to say a complete sentence.

Now that Takayanagi Ichiro's body can actually move after using the medicine he researched, it means that Takayanagi Ichiro's assessment of the tonic is quite correct.

Marina Akizuki and her sister tied up Kozo Akizuki before, and now it's possible that the ropes are restricting his movements.

"Master, what are you going to do with this guy?"

"You guys rest a bit more, I'll go and get this guy out of here. I know a place that can take him."

This is something that you should handle yourself; it's best if Akizuki and the others don't get involved.
