My life in the underworld begins at the Takayanagi family!

At that time, Naoto Nagisa expressed his desire to become a member of parliament, but his family did not provide much support.

Therefore, the head of the Takayanagi family provided him with campaign funds, and not in the form of a loan, but as a direct gift.

The most expensive things are often the free ones, and Naoto Nagisa certainly understands this.

However, the amount of funding offered was so large that he accepted it and began his campaign.

Later, Nagisa Naoto had less and less contact with the head of the Takayanagi family, but he always kept this friendship in his heart.

He heard that the head of the Takayanagi family had died unexpectedly. He went to pay his respects afterward and saw the head of the Takayanagi family at the time and a child, but he did not see Takayanagi Ichiro.

"I went to the Takayanagi family home, but I didn't see you there."

If I had met Takayanagi Ichiro before, I would definitely recognize him immediately this time, and there wouldn't be any of the previous conflicts.

"After my father passed away, my uncle seized power and became the head of the family."

They drove me away from Gao Liubenjiang and then started supporting my younger brother, so it's perfectly normal that you, Representative Zhu, haven't seen me."

Ichiro Takayanagi didn't seem to care much about his tragic past and spoke about it calmly, which also meant that he didn't want Representative Nagisa to help him take revenge.

Chapter 457 Ying, is he the man who took you away?

After hearing Takayanagi Ichiro's words, Naoto Nagisa fell silent.

He could tell that Ichiro Takayanagi must have suffered some unfair treatment.

Given the help he received from the head of the Takayanagi family, he should have helped Takayanagi Ichiro solve this problem, but unfortunately he didn't.

Therefore, Naoto Nagisa now feels somewhat guilty towards Ichiro Takayanagi, and he cannot do anything excessive towards Ichiro Takayanagi's charity work here.

"Takayanagi-kun, I should have..."

"It has nothing to do with you. I am now the head of the Takayanagi family, and everything is in the past."

Ichiro Takayanagi knew what Naoto Nagisa wanted to say, so he interrupted him.

Then he revealed his current identity, which greatly surprised Naoto Nagisa.

When I went to pay my respects to the head of the Takayanagi family, I met Takayanagi Musashi and knew that he was a very wicked old man.

Takayanagi Ichiro had just graduated from university and had already joined the Takayanagi family; there was bound to be bloodshed and turmoil involved.

"I haven't been paying enough attention to that aspect, so..."

"My dead uncle and my good-for-nothing brother have already reunited in another world and gone to carry on their family business."

Takayanagi Ichiro's casual remark reveals that the struggle for the position of head of the Takayanagi family was indeed a bloody and turbulent affair.

However, Naoto Nagisa had no intention of standing up for justice; at that moment, they were after interests, not justice.

"I originally came here to see who was doing charity work in this village."

But now that I know your identity, Mr. Takayanagi, I have no objections whatsoever.

However, I hope that you, Takayanagi-kun, will remember your promise and not interfere with any aspect of the village's operations.

In fact, Ichiro Takayanagi should have agreed to whatever Naoto Nagisa asked, since the head of the Takayanagi family had helped him so much back then, it was like giving him a second life.

However, since it concerned Okumizome, Naoto Nagisa still had some backbone and stated his conditions.

"I'm here to do charity work, not to start a war with the administrators here."

After the asset acquisition task here is completed, I will report to my superiors, and no one will be coming here again.

Takayanagi Ichiro is only here for a week to do charity work; he doesn't intend to develop any businesses here.

They come from a family of loan sharks, not from the manufacturing or high-tech industries.

Naoto Nagisa was overjoyed to receive this promise from Ichiro Takayanagi once again.

The Takayanagi family is indeed very outstanding.

Naoto Nagisa was already considering letting his daughter have more contact with Ichiro Takayanagi at this time.

Ichiro Takayanagi said that he would only be here for one week to do charity work.

If they miss the opportunity, their daughter will have no choice but to chase after him outside.

On Aomuran's side, his daughter has some advantages due to her status, and many people will cooperate with her actions.

However, once they arrived in the big city, his daughter was just an ordinary person and had no chance of winning over Takayanagi Ichiro's audience.

However, it would be a little inappropriate to directly express this idea; let them develop it on their own.

"Mr. Gao Liu, I'll call the teachers at the school in a bit and let them know that they won't resist your charity anymore."

I have some other things to take care of, so I won't be able to join you for this charity work.

After Naoto finished speaking, he got up from his seat and left with his men.

The black-clad security personnel who had been defeated by Ichiro Takayanagi earlier also left with Naoto Nagisa at this time, as it would be too shameful for them to stay here.

"Boss, are we just going to let this go?"

On the drive home, the driver asked Naoto Nagisa this question.

If it comes to close combat with Takayanagi Ichiro, neither he nor his bodyguard will have any advantage.

However, if they attack Takayanagi Ichiro from the shadows with weapons, he might suffer a silent loss.

Naoto Nagisa is already the largest top-tier force here, and he even has real weapons.

"You'd better not have that kind of thinking. If you encounter him on the street in the future, you should give way to him."

His family's legacy is so ancient that if he suffers even the slightest harm, we will face a devastating blow, without even the power to resist.

Naoto Nagisa reminded his driver not to do anything reckless.

"How can it be……"

After hearing Naoto Nagisa's words, the driver was completely stunned.

I never expected Naoto Nagisa to say something that so boosted the morale of others while diminishing his own.

"Just remember what I told you. If you really want to go head-to-head, you'll have to bear the consequences yourselves. I'll cut all ties with you then."

Naoto Nagisa did not tell Ichiro Takayanagi the truth, because they did not need to know too much.

"I understand, I will explain."

The driver nodded in agreement, explaining that delivering such a message was something he needed to do himself, and that he shouldn't trouble Naoto Nagisa.

.................

Takayanagi Ichiro's entry into this high school caused a sensation, after all, Takayanagi Ichiro was just too handsome.

If we were to participate in the school's poll for the most handsome guy, Ichiro Takayanagi would undoubtedly be number one.

The main reason is that Ichiro Takayanagi has just graduated from university and hasn't been there for long. He still retains a bit of the school's style, so he doesn't look much different from these high school students.

Of course, this school doesn't only have high school students; there are also junior high students, since they all attend school together.

Takayanagi Ichiro wouldn't be staying here for long, so he didn't bother the high school students, but some people had already set their sights on him.

"Ei, is that the man who took you away from the shrine?"

A woman with long, beautiful black hair was standing next to Amaterasu Ei; she was Nagisa Naoto's daughter, Nagisa Ichiyo.

Yesterday I originally wanted to go to the shrine to find Amatsume Ei, but I was too late.

Amaneme Ei has already left with Ifukube Yashiro, Takayanagi Ichiro, and others.

She arrived at school early today and kept staring at the school gate. She noticed that Amane Akira, Kasugano Sora, and an unfamiliar woman walked into the campus.

Nagisa Ichiyo and Kasugano Kyō didn't get along very well, so he only greeted Amatsume Akira separately.

Then the woman from out of town told Kasugano Sora and Amane Ei to leave her side, and she went to the school staff office alone.

Chapter 458 A Girl Yearning for the Outside World

Kasugano Sora didn't have many friends at school to begin with, and since her brother wasn't coming to school with her today, she didn't need to greet anyone her brother knew.

Nagisa Ichiyo went directly to Amaneme Akira, wanting to find out exactly what happened yesterday, since it concerned outsiders.

Nagisa Ichiyo doesn't have a blanket condemnation attitude towards outsiders, but she doesn't want Amamiya Akira to be harmed by them.

She could tell that Tiannv Muying and that woman from out of town had a fairly good relationship, and perhaps the woman from out of town was completely different from what they had previously known.

"It was Mr. Takayanagi who lent the money to Yashiro-nee, and then Yashiro-nee gave the money to my master's descendant, which allowed me to leave the shrine."

From now on, I will live with Yashiro-nee, and he will find a shop to sell sweets.

Eiryo Tenjou could sense Nagisa Ichiyo's worry for her, so she didn't hide anything and simply explained the situation.

It's true that Ifukube Yashiro takes good care of Amatsume Akira, but Nagisa Ichiyo is a little envious that she can live with Amatsume Akira.

“Ying, if your master’s descendants only want money, you can tell me directly, and I can exchange money for your freedom.”

In the past, Amaneme Ei worked as a shrine maiden at the shrine to repay the kindness of the former head priest.

The host is now dead, and the family is being exploited by his descendants.

Nagisa Ichiyo had previously considered helping Amatsume Akira, but Amatsume Akira had always refused.

Now they've actually accepted loan assistance from outsiders, albeit through Ifukube Hachihiro.

"Yiye, I can handle my own affairs."

You shouldn't get too involved with people from other places, otherwise your family will be unhappy.

Takayanagi Ichiro and Amamiya Etsumiko are good people, but discrimination against outsiders has always existed in the village, especially against Nagisa Ichiyo's family.

In the past, some people came here wanting to do charity work, but they were driven away by Nagisa Ichiyo's family.

"If those outsiders have any other ideas about you, you must seek my help immediately."

Nagisa Ichiyo wouldn't actively seek out outsiders to contact her, but if an outsider tried to take advantage of Amatsume Ei, she would definitely stand up for her.

"I will."
