I Am an Emperor in a World of Mixed Anime

The government-established special investigation team was finally formed and immediately went to Yunmeng Group to formally launch an investigation into the company.

"Mr. Higashino, I apologize for bothering you. I hope you will be understanding in the future."

"Not at all, we'll look after each other." Higashino Akira smiled and exchanged pleasantries with the Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. Thanks to his status, Yukinoshita Haruno was also able to be given the opportunity to serve tea and water on this occasion, despite the usual restrictions.

"We have long admired you, but this is the first time we have seen you in person."

Akira Higashino chuckled and asked in return, "Not disappointed, are you?"

The Minister of Land Affairs shook his head, a hint of regret in his eyes, "Full of vigor and high spirits."

It's so good to be young.

It's a pity that the relationship couldn't go any further. His daughters, the eldest is already married, and the youngest is still a minor.

It wouldn't have mattered if he was young, but after investigating, he found out that there was a culprit among his men. A daring guy was enjoying his trust and preferential treatment while having an affair with his youngest daughter.

He had done some research on Higashino Akira and had a fairly good grasp of the basic information.

Knowing that this young man was truly young, he disliked those who were too young and wouldn't touch anything that wasn't original. These two basic requirements directly killed the competition, depriving his family of any chance to advance further.

The reason they kept that beast around was simply to make use of him, waiting for the right opportunity to push him out and put him in the spotlight.

After nurturing him for so many years and bringing him to this level, it's time for him to be qualified to shoulder the heavy responsibility of taking the blame.

This investigation is a mess, and it's impossible to sort it out successfully.

Finally, someone of sufficient stature must be held accountable for the failure.

As for him, he was just a loyal and honest person who was framed by a villain with ulterior motives. After this incident, he will take the initiative to resign and give everyone an explanation. After a while, when things have cooled down, he will be clean and honest. It would be perfectly normal for him to go out and find a job as a senior consultant for a big company to support his family.

What about the members of the investigation team under his command...

"Honey, over here, over here..."

"Father."

"uncle!"

"..."

Upon seeing their relatives, a group of specially hired "employees" at Yunmeng Group, who held high-paying but idle positions and whose job consisted of working from home or playing games and watching movies in the office, greeted them and took the initiative to reminisce and exchange recent updates.

Then, they would take their relatives and visit various departments and links.

As for the investigation?

Isn't this under investigation?

How could a company as large as Yunmeng be investigated in one go?

It's not like we've stopped investigating.

The investigation should be conducted slowly and deliberately, in a rhythmic and planned manner, and in batches.

After all, if you investigate one department, you have to find other departments to cooperate. If there are discrepancies in the reports from the two departments and the data doesn't match, you have to run back and forth through the procedures. If you find something related to data security, you also have to prove your identity. What, you brought your work ID?

How can you prove that the work permit is really yours and not a forgery?

It won't do without the official stamp from the higher-level government department!

Even if it's stamped, it still won't work. You need to prove that you are who you are. Go back to your place of birth and get an identity confirmation statement from the local government. Otherwise, it involves security risks, so we can't be careless.

We can't completely trust Yunmeng Group's data; we need to verify it from other angles.

For example, you could collect information about restaurants near the locations of the company's various departments and branches to indirectly estimate how many employees Yunmeng Group actually has.

What? They have their own records?

If I believe everything Yunmeng writes, wouldn't all my research have been for nothing?

The Japanese government is taking this investigation very seriously, not only because some of Yunmeng Group's actions have touched a nerve, but also because this up-and-coming company has emerged too quickly and become a thorn in the side of many. Everyone is secretly working hard, preparing to devour the group's assets and market share as soon as Yunmeng collapses.

To ensure the personal safety of the investigation team members, the team was accompanied by self-defense forces and police officers, who would immediately report any suspicious activity and declare martial law.

Ordinary soldiers have no idea about the intricacies of the situation; all they know is that this is an unprecedentedly lucrative post. Whether they're after money or want to demonstrate their abilities and advance their careers, everything is full of opportunities.

Watching the professional investigation teams being tossed around like a football by various departments, seemingly overwhelmed yet still calmly cooperating and dealing with each move as it came, the investigation team members weren't worried; they were!

They proactively approached and asked if the other person needed assistance.

The result was several disdainful looks.

What's even more chilling is that their own superiors also felt threatened by this, fearing that they would gain merit and be promoted to be on equal footing with him. So they took the initiative to reprimand and suppress them, and punished them by making them do armed training exercises around the park.

idiot!

How can we ever get things done while we're stuck with these bastards!

Liben's current economic downturn is all because of these guys!

"Your subordinate?"

In the office, a member of the investigation team was holding a cup of coffee his wife had made for him, looking at this guy.

Upon hearing this, the officer from the Self-Defense Forces waved his hand dismissively, saying, "They are not high enough in rank to be involved in this kind of thing. They are young and inexperienced, please forgive them."

How can we let those idiots cause trouble?

Doesn't that prevent him from making money?

What if those bastards find out something?

After hearing the guy's answer, the middle-aged man, one of the investigation team members, showed no emotion on his face, but inwardly he despised the guy.

How foolish and greedy!

Yunmeng has always been generous and spends money like water, so she must have calculated that even ordinary soldiers would receive money as long as they came.

As a result, the soldiers acted as if they knew nothing, and it was likely that their original share had been embezzled by this superior.

Those ordinary soldiers are really unlucky to have a leader like that.

How the hell can you keep something like this to yourself?

Only when everyone has a share of the money are they accomplices, you idiots!

I've already decided that no matter what I do in the future, I must stay away from this selfish guy to prevent him from ruining my plans.

At 5 p.m., Yunmeng and the investigation team all tacitly agreed to leave work together.

.........

Higashino Akira refused Haruno's offer to stay, saying that her cat could do backflips, and did not agree to go home with her.

He left the company alone.

Arrive at the door of an apartment building in Kanagawa Prefecture and ring the doorbell.

"coming."

There was a response from inside the house, followed quickly by heavy footsteps that sounded like someone running barefoot.

Higashino Akira lowered his head, the door opened, and sure enough, a pair of fair and cute little footprints came into view.

Food grade!

He looked up again, and his expression suddenly froze.

"Ok?"

"'Huh?' What does that mean?"

Feng Bin and Xiang looked at the man with annoyance, their little faces puffed up with anger. What did that disappointed expression mean?

This guy is infuriating!

"It's Sister Beast! What are you doing here?"

"What 'Beast Sister'? It's Kazuka! Toyohama Kazuka!!!"

The girl's face turned red with anger. She couldn't believe that even after so much time had passed, this big bad guy was still bringing up the past and kept using that nickname to tease her!

"Besides, this is my sister's house. What's so strange about me being here, you idiot!"

She glared at him with a cute but fierce look, "Are you coming in or not? If not, go back inside. It's not good for people to see you standing at the door!"

"Of course we should go in."

Having successfully made the child angry and reveal a cute expression, Akira Higashino smiled and stepped forward to approach, preparing to go inside.

Feng Bin and Xiang, with a shy look in their eyes, quickly looked away.

I don't dare to post about him here.

No matter what, this guy is my sister's boyfriend, and it's not appropriate for him to get too close to her.

"Your sister just got back today and is catching up on sleep in her bedroom. Be quiet and don't wake her up."

After closing the door, Toyohama Kazuka followed behind the man and suddenly spoke, as if to remind him of something.

Upon hearing this, Higashino Akira gave her an "OK" sign with a knowing look on his face.

The two walked to the living room and sat on the sofa, about two body lengths apart.

After all, she was just a child, and compared to Mai-san, she was far too weak in terms of feminine strength. After sitting down with a pillow, Toyohama Kaori pretended to be watching TV seriously, completely unaware that it would have been more appropriate for her to take the initiative to brew tea and serve it to her at this time.

Akira Higashino had to do it himself.

After brewing the tea, I generously shared a cup with her.

Then, he just stared at her quietly. While Toyohama and Kaori watched TV, he watched Kaori until the girl's face gradually turned red and she turned her head to stare straight at him with a shy expression. Higashino Akira felt that she was probably ashamed, so he slowly spoke.

"I remember you used to live in Tokyo, in the house I prepared for Mai-san, right?"

Upon hearing this, Toyohama Kazuka declared with a self-righteous air, "Wherever my sister is, that's where I'll be!"

The girl gave him a slightly naive yet defiant look, "You won't be separating me from my sister, hmph~"

Higashino Akira looked speechless upon hearing this. It was precisely because there was a third wheel next door that he had arranged to leave Tokyo with Sakurajima Mai and come to her house here for a date.

Why is this guy so clingy?

Sakurajima Mai had finally gotten a break from university and her work was temporarily over, so she could go home and rest and the two of them could have a nice date.

As it turns out, Toyohama and Kaori were also there, which limited his and Mai-san's room for maneuver, didn't it?
