A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Ayaka Haruhara could sense the sourness in her friend's words. She didn't know what to say about what had happened to her, since it wasn't just bad luck or good luck, but a mixture of both, somewhat like a balance of fortunes.

Ayaka Haruhara also gleaned another meaning from her friend's words: Suijin also had considerable feelings for Li Wei, which could be considered a deeply hidden form of jealousy.

Haruhara Ayaka said, "Who can say what luck is? Just like now, Nishiki, you are able to sit here and talk to me. Isn't that a sign of things turning around from bad to good? Moreover, you chose to come here instead of staying in a hotel or inn. This is both your choice and your good fortune. After all, good fortune doesn't belong to me alone."

Suijin could sense that Haruhara Ayaka was implying something. Although the other party did not have any malicious intent, this riddle-like behavior made her feel confused and troubled. She was not good at solving riddles. Even when dealing with clients, she was straightforward. Therefore, she found it very difficult to understand these roundabout words.

Sui Jin pondered Haruhara Ayaka's words and asked herself, was her purpose in coming here really just to find a place to stay? She had a feeling that Haruhara Ayaka seemed to have seen many things that she herself had not been able to perceive, which was why she spoke in riddles.

Now, facing her own questioning, Sui Jin seemed a little guilty, because her purpose in coming here was indeed not simply to find accommodation. Rather, it was because Li Wei was here that, after the fire burned down her wine shop, leaving her homeless, she immediately thought of coming here. Becoming a tenant here meant being able to live under the same roof as Li Wei and spend every day with him.

Sui Jin herself found it somewhat unbelievable that she had such thoughts, since she hadn't thought about them much at the time. In fact, compared to the result she came up with after careful consideration, this kind of thinking was entirely a result of her subconscious.

Suijin suddenly realized that Haruhara Ayaka had already noticed her feelings for Li Wei. In fact, they should be considered rivals.

But because of this, she was somewhat confused. After all, even best friends can turn against each other in matters of the heart. Yet, after Haruhara Ayaka sensed her thoughts, she still chose to accept her. What kind of magnanimity was that? She suddenly felt a little ashamed, because if she were in Haruhara Ayaka's position, she definitely wouldn't have been able to remain so calm.

Chapter 1. Surrounded by Enemies

Suijin's expression was somewhat complicated. Looking at Haruhara Ayaka's still gentle and radiant smile, she felt the gap between herself and the other person.

Haruhara Ayaka said, "Nishiki, everyone has the right to pursue happiness, whether it's you or me, so go ahead and pursue your own happiness, don't be afraid of hurting others."

Sui Jin smiled bitterly, "But if you're the one who gets hurt, I'd rather give up. I understand what you mean, but why are you doing this? I can see that you like Li Weijun."

Haruhara Ayaka laughed and said, "I understand what you're saying, but do you really think I can monopolize Li Weijun? I simply don't have that ability. If I force it, I'll only be attacked. Now, my voluntary retreat is actually a strategic retreat."

Sui Jin frowned slightly and said, "Is this really a good thing for you? I can sense that Li Weijun likes you too. Does he know what you're thinking?"

Ayaka Haruhara said, "We have an unspoken understanding that some things don't need to be said anymore, and he himself has realized the problem because there are just too many girls who like him. I can't stop this from happening, so instead of trying to stop it, I'd rather be prepared to accept it, build good relationships with these future companions, and reduce the trouble at home."

Ayaka Haruhara now sees herself as the "first wife." Of course, she knows very well that she doesn't have any special advantages and has never been superior to anyone else. She was just the first one there. But when it comes to feelings, you can't explain things by who came first.

So, by showing her tolerance now, she's paving the way for her future. After all, the fewer "enemies," the better, and if they can be turned into friends, that would be even better. She doesn't have any intention of forming cliques; she simply wants the family to be stable, which is in her best interest. Nobody likes constant chaos and messy situations; everyone living peacefully is the best outcome.

In matters like this, Suijin is ultimately not as enlightened as Sunohara Ayaka, which is why she thinks Sunohara Ayaka is remarkable. If she were in Sunohara's shoes, she would not be able to do such a thing.

Ayaka Haruhara extended her hand and said, "Let's get along well. Right now, we can be said to be the two oldest people around Li Weijun. As the older sisters, we have to set a good example. Of course, I'm not sure if there will be women older than us joining this family in the future, but for now, we are the eldest sisters in this family."

Sui Jin was breathless. She hadn't expected her friend to have such a shady move. However, it was the best of both worlds possible. The only thing that bothered her was that Li Wei was the one who ultimately benefited from this.

Suijin said, "Okay, I admit it, I do like Li Wei. I was originally planning to give up on this, but since you've said so, Ayaka, I won't hold back. But speaking of which, besides you and me, which other girls like Li Wei?"

Ayaka Haruhara smiled and said, "All the girls who live in Haruhara Manor now."

Suijin looked surprised and said, "Does that include Cai Cai too?"

Sui Jin's surprise was palpable. She hadn't expected Li Wei to be so charming that even a rebellious high school girl like Haruhara Nana had fallen for him.

When I talked to Haruhara Ayaka on the phone before, she learned that Haruhara Nana had bought a new motorcycle and had moved back to Haruhara-so. Now that I think about it, the reason why Haruhara Nana obediently moved back might be that Li Wei was the biggest factor that attracted her back.

To be honest, Sui Jin had a very good first impression of Li Wei. To put it nicely, it was love at first sight; to put it bluntly, it was lust at first sight. But that's just how realistic the world is. No matter how interesting a soul is, without a beautiful appearance, others simply won't want to get close, let alone get to know its inner soul. Humans are visual creatures, and no one is immune to this.

Li Wei's beauty wasn't the so-called "stunning good looks" of pretty boys; it was a masculine charm, a heroic quality reminiscent of ancient Greek mythology—a towering figure, yet possessing a gentle tenderness that feared even the smallest detail. This complex blend of strength and tenderness gave Li Wei both robust and graceful qualities, a perfect fusion of seemingly contradictory traits. It was precisely because of this that she was captivated the moment she first saw him.

Sui Jin felt that it was a loss for women all over the world that Li Wei only became a doctor and not a movie actor. If Li Wei had been willing to act in movies, he would definitely have become the dream lover of women all over the world.

After thinking about it, Sui Jin felt that this idea was the worst. Fortunately, Li Wei did not go into acting. If Li Wei were really a movie star, then she would only be able to see Li Wei through television and the big screen, instead of being able to spend every day with Li Wei like she does now.

Haruhara Ayaka said, "Do you think any girl can resist Li Weijun's charm? He's like a poison created by heaven to punish women. Every woman who has seen him will be captivated and obsessed with him. To be honest, the number of 'enemies' I have to face is enormous. And before meeting us, Li Weijun was already favored by many rich young ladies, wealthy wives, and even powerful women with immense wealth. I don't have the ability to compete with those people. I'm already satisfied with maintaining the current situation."

Sui Jin didn't know what to say. Through Haruhara Ayaka's explanation, he learned that Li Wei was a top doctor active in the underworld. As a doctor, he would naturally have to deal with the powerful and wealthy, and therefore, he would inevitably come into contact with a large number of rich women.

Sui Jin knew that by ordinary standards, she was highly competitive in the marriage market. She considered herself to have good looks and figure, as well as some assets and savings. In short, a man who married a moderately wealthy woman like her could skip ten years of hard work. This was precisely why she was picky and hesitant to commit to marriage. But now, having stepped outside her original social circle and faced the overwhelming competition from women in higher social strata, she realized that her own qualities were nothing to Li Wei.

Chapter 4. Human Trafficking Gangs

At this moment, Li Wei turned his attention to Shiina Aki, who was still unconscious. The human traffickers who had kidnapped him had placed him in a cold storage warehouse near the sea.

These cold storage warehouses by the sea are mostly used to store frozen fish. The fishing industry in Japan is very developed. Fish that cannot withstand room temperature storage are not sold immediately, but are processed into frozen products and then distributed throughout the country.

Such cold storage warehouses are not all cold. The monitoring room, which is reserved for monitoring personnel to rest, is kept at a constant temperature to ensure that the staff inside can be in a relatively comfortable state.

Now, in this cold storage warehouse, the significantly larger monitoring room, unlike any other warehouse, is already occupied by about a dozen human traffickers. This warehouse is the gang's fixed base for concealing their identities. The gang members pose as employees of a frozen food company, and they do indeed engage in some frozen food business to disguise themselves. However, the frozen food industry itself isn't very profitable; it's all hard-earned money. Human trafficking gangs can't endure that kind of hardship, so they only take on a small number of jobs to maintain appearances. Their real source of income is human trafficking.

The leader of the human trafficking gang was a middle-aged man dressed as a successful businessman, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, a well-tailored suit, and a designer watch. You can't judge a book by its cover. He appeared to be a respectable man, but in reality, he was the leader of a human trafficking gang. More than a hundred people had been sold through his hands. He was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Unlike the leader of the human trafficking gang, the other members of the gang were dressed in cheap suits, denim overalls, and rubber boots. They were either office workers or fishermen who made a living at sea.

A member of the gang, dressed as a fisherman, opened the sack and used a knife to cut it open, revealing the person inside.

The traffickers looked surprised and said, "Only now, looking closely at this kid, can we see how extraordinary he is. This is the first time I've ever seen a boy who is even more beautiful and delicate than a girl. This guy only needs to wear women's clothes, without even needing makeup, and he'll be a very beautiful girl."

The human trafficking leader sat down on the sofa, lit a cigar, took a deep drag, and said, "That's why this kid is so valuable. I've been doing this for so many years, and this is the first time I've ever encountered such a top-quality specimen."

This human trafficking gang was very particular; they only targeted boys and girls who were very good-looking. They wouldn't even bother to look at those who weren't good-looking or had good figures.

After all, the human trafficking industry is quite special. It takes a high-end route, specifically targeting the powerful and wealthy or successful people with special interests, looking for beautiful young boys and girls. Moreover, their goods have a very wide range of routes. Some are consumed directly within the country, while others are exported overseas, with the furthest reaching Europe.

Shiina Aki has androgynous features, and coupled with her young age and underdeveloped physique, she looks even more delicate than most girls. Since boys typically develop later than girls, in a couple of years, it will be difficult for Shiina Aki to maintain her current refined appearance.

The leader of the trafficking gang said, "The old man from the Takahashi family ordered some boys from me before, asking me to find some handsome young boys, preferably the kind with feminine features. But these kinds of special gems are not easy to find. The intelligence department searched for half a year without finding a suitable candidate. Now, we unexpectedly stumbled upon such a person during a routine patrol. It's truly a case of 'searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to us effortlessly.'"

The Japanese have a very complex feeling towards Okinawa—a mixture of contempt and admiration, respect and fear. The influence of this Asian superpower is simply too immense. So even in Japan, many people study so-called "Sinology," and the higher the social class, the more authentically they study it. Therefore, it's perfectly normal for Japanese intellectuals to utter Okinawan proverbs and idioms.

The gang members all knew that they could make a fortune this time. Even if the boss took the lion's share, each of them would still receive a generous bonus because the quality of the goods was so high that they could be sold for an outrageous price.

None of the gang members asked their boss how much money they could make. That wasn't something their informants should be asking. Their boss was a member of the elite system, and compared to ordinary criminal gangs, they were more like retainers of the powerful. This special status gave them a higher position than ordinary people, in addition to their identity as members of the criminal gang. Because of this, they cared more about certain invisible benefits than money.

The gang leader said, "Everyone has worked hard this time. In the shootout with other gangs, two people were injured. Everyone injured in this conflict will receive proper medical treatment. Although the goods haven't been sold yet, I will give everyone a bonus in advance, 100,000 yuan each."

Upon hearing the amount of the reward, the members of the human trafficking gang all smiled. This was much higher than the income they earned from the jobs they used to disguise their identities. For example, the frozen food company they worked for only had an average annual income of nearly two million yuan per person. However, considering that this job was only for disguising identities and the workload was not heavy, the gang members did not complain about it at all.

Their real income comes from their clandestine work. By trafficking high-quality boys and girls, the average annual income of the group of about ten people can reach over a million yen per person. This is higher than the income of elite members of ordinary yakuza organizations, and it is not as dangerous as being a yakuza.

After all, the yakuza operate on a system of double-crossing, a clash between the strong, where casualties are always significant. These professional human trafficking gangs, on the other hand, only prey on ordinary people, making their activities far less dangerous than those of yakuza organizations, resulting in a very high return on investment. Furthermore, their leader holds a position of influence in government and has deep connections with powerful figures. Even if something goes wrong, there will be someone to clean up the mess for them, making them extremely loyal to their boss.

"Long live the boss!"

"Boss is wise!"

The gang members began their daily sycophancy. The middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses revealed a satisfied smile. As a member of the privileged system, he wasn't short of money, strictly speaking. His involvement in human trafficking was more driven by his perverse hobby. He enjoyed the feeling of sending others to hell, which gave him a vile sense of accomplishment. This thrill of controlling others' lives was more exciting to him than gambling or anything like that.

Chapter 1. Trapped in a Dire Situation

Before the members of the trafficking gang realized that a paper crane in optical camouflage had appeared above their heads, invisible to the naked eye. This paper crane was the medium that Li Wei used to cast spells remotely.

Li Wei's mind-reading ability has a limited range; if the distance is too far, he must use a medium to cast the spell. He first used a location tracking system to pinpoint the location, then used magic to send a paper crane over, and finally used the paper crane as a medium to read the memories of the human trafficking gang leader.

In just a few seconds, Li Wei already knew who Shiina Aki's buyer was.

However, reading the memories of the human trafficking gang leader made Li Wei feel somewhat disgusted. This well-dressed, refined man was also a villain with a unique and extremely perverse sense of humor. From an ordinary person's perspective, this refined man was beyond what execution by firing squad could appease public anger. Even being dragged out and executed by cannon fire, machine-gunned, or even subjected to slow slicing would be appropriate.

Although Li Wei himself was a villain, he felt that he was enough of the villains in the world. As for the other villains, he didn't have to deal with them. But those he did encounter, especially those who had committed serious crimes, had to pay the price with their lives. Moreover, even after death, they had to suffer to atone for the crimes they had committed in their lives.

Li Wei even considered whether he should build a hell specifically to punish these wicked people. He had no interest in how to reward good people; he simply wanted to punish the wicked, after all, he was just such a willful and reckless person.

Li Wei had already foreseen what would happen to Shiina Aki. From the memories of the gang leader, Li Wei learned what kind of person the person known as "Old Man Takahashi" was.

In Japan, because the war was not purged, the pre-war elite system was preserved intact, and this so-called old man Takahashi was a member of this system. This retired old man had once served as a key figure in the police system; in Chinese parlance, he was a retired high-ranking official at the third-rank level. Even now, his influence remains considerable.

The reason the gang leader was able to escape police capture after kidnapping so many people was because of the protection of this old man and other powerful figures. Mutual favors among the powerful are commonplace in Japan. On the surface, the old man, Takahashi, was a dutiful, loyal, and righteous "messenger of justice," but in reality, he had another face. He vented his work-related stress on the slaves he bought from the human trafficking gang. Three slaves sold to him by this gang leader alone had already been tortured to death. It just goes to show that there are far too many people in this world whose true nature can never be trusted.

Through the gang leader's access to more memories, Li Wei gained a deeper understanding of the decadent lifestyle of the upper class in Japan. Indeed, Japan had no future because its roots had rotted away completely.

A large tree, whether its trunk or branches, can repair itself through decay and shedding of bark, even if problems arise. But if the root system, buried deep underground, is the root, then the tree is truly beyond saving. Li Wei has spent several years in Japan, and while his understanding of Japan is still not comprehensive, his understanding of its darker side is far deeper than that of the natives who grew up there. Or rather, this understanding is an understanding of human nature. Humans can have infinitely high limits, but they can also have infinitely low limits. In Japan, those who can infinitely break the lower limits occupy high positions, and this situation is bound to cause problems sooner or later.

Shiina Aki's eyelids twitched, and he slowly woke up. When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the ground, surrounded by tall, unfriendly adults who were looking at him with malice, which made him shiver.

Shiina Aki got up and quickly surveyed his surroundings. However, he noticed that two burly men were sitting at the door. If he wanted to escape, he would inevitably have to get past them. Having only been training for a few days, apart from being physically better than before, his strength and speed were still within the range of a minor. It was impossible for him to fight against these vicious adults.

"Who are you people?!" Shiina Aki suppressed her fear and tried to figure out what had happened.

The gang leader crossed his legs, tapped his cigar lightly, and scattered ash on the ground.

The gang leader, seeing Shiina Aki looking like a frightened rabbit, felt a surge of lust. This boy with feminine features was actually arousing him. However, he was someone who valued money more. Such a top-quality character would be a waste to keep internally; turning him into money was the most appropriate thing to do.

The gang leader laughed and said, "Kid, don't you understand what's going on? Congratulations, you've been kidnapped."

Shiina Aki regretted leaving Sunohara-sou. If he hadn't left, he wouldn't be in this situation now.

Shiina Aki forced herself to calm down and said, "You want money, right? Then how much do I have to pay to buy my freedom? Name your price."

Shiina Aki had watched so many TV shows, and that's how it was portrayed in police dramas. For ruthless people like this, driven by greed, it was best not to provoke them. Knowing their limits and needs was crucial to ensuring her own safety. Someone like this, after all, was better than a mentally unstable madman who would kill in a fit of rage. If they wanted money, they should have some opportunity.

The gang leader said, "You have indeed been kidnapped, but I don't intend to ask your family for a ransom. After all, you're a very valuable commodity, and your family might not be able to raise the amount I need in a short time. I don't want to wait that long to get the money. Besides, ransom is something that can easily expose my existence. Do you think I'd be stupid enough to do that?"

The gang leader had already set a price for Shiina Aki. Previously, the head of the Takahashi family had placed an order with him and paid a deposit in advance. Including the deposit, Shiina Aki's value reached 40 million yen. It was precisely because Shiina Aki was so valuable that he gave each of his underlings a substantial bonus. After all, with such a top-tier individual, a smaller bonus might not elicit complaints from the underlings, but their loyalty would certainly be affected. Therefore, he offered a bonus of over a million yen. Even with the bonus, he still made a huge profit. Never underestimate the spending power of the powerful and wealthy. For those high-ranking nobles, racing cars, horse racing, and antiques are already beyond their reach. The top elites prefer to play with people rather than play with objects. Therefore, the price a high-quality young man or woman can fetch far exceeds that of houses and luxury cars.

Chapter 1. Watching the Show and Eating Melon

Shiina Aki wasn't particularly bright, but he wasn't stupid either. When he heard that the other party didn't intend to ask his family for a ransom, his heart sank. He realized that although he had been kidnapped, his ultimate fate was to be sold off, and realizing that his future was bleak, his eyes lost their light.

Looking at Shiina Aki's listless appearance, the gang leader laughed and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. Although we are planning to sell you, we don't intend to sell you abroad. You are still in Japan and haven't even left the country. After all, those stingy white pigs are unwilling to pay a high price for someone as delicate and tender as you. Only those enthusiasts in Japan are willing to pay for such a top-quality person as you."

Shiina Aki lay on the ground, no longer caring about the second half of what the gang leader said, because to him, it was all hell either way.

Li Wei, who witnessed this scene through magic, felt no sympathy for Shiina Aki. "Heaven's sins can be forgiven, but man's sins cannot."

Li Wei, who was in his room, watched the scene like a monkey show. Although the people in Chun Yuan Manor did not reveal the real reason for the chaotic public security in Tokyo to Shiina Aki, the news on TV was broadcast every day, whether it was in the morning, noon or evening.

Even if they can't watch TV in the morning, people in Chunyuanzhuang don't have the habit of not watching TV while eating, so they often switch the TV channel to Tokyo Electric Power Company's news and use the news to accompany their meals.

Anyone paying a little attention would know about the decline in public safety in Tokyo. After all, news channels are constantly broadcasting reports of looting, vandalism, injuries, and deaths, creating widespread fear and anxiety in the city. It must be said that Tokyo Metropolitan Television (TMT) has played a crucial role in this situation; if it weren't for Li Wei's protection, TEPCO would have been dealt with long ago.

Having followed Tokyo Electric Power News for so many days, anyone with a modicum of sense knows how serious the situation is outside. Even so, Shiina Aki still insisted on running away, and now she's been kidnapped. Whose fault is that?

Li Wei withdrew his gaze, because what followed was just the pointless time. Before Shiina Aki was delivered to the buyer, there wasn't much to see. Although these burly men looked unfriendly, they wouldn't lay a hand on such an important commodity as Shiina Aki. The real highlight was after the delivery, when Shiina Aki would become the personal plaything of the head of the Takahashi family.
