Tokyo: Magical Girl Shatters My Dream of Going Public

Chapter 77 Is the branch office more legitimate than my headquarters?! (1/5)

Kurokawa suddenly asked about moving, and both of them were taken aback.

Chika blinked: "Moving?"

"Yes." Kurokawa nodded. "You're currently staying in a 1R (a room type where the kitchen and bedroom are in one room)."

Bar?"

The two nodded.

Chika honestly replied, "I did think about it before—now that I have some money, I'd like to rent a bigger room with a bathtub."

"That's perfect," Kurokawa said. "Would you like to move in with us?"

"Move in?" the two sisters asked in unison.

"The company is planning to build employee dormitories."

Kurokawa turned his head and glanced at the long sofa behind him that was being used as a makeshift bed.

"I should have a proper place to sleep now; I can't keep sleeping on the sofa forever."

He turned his gaze back and continued, "The dormitory is located in the basement, so you can't see the view above ground—but as a founding employee benefit, you can design your own rooms. Of course, the company will cover all the expenses."

He paused, then added, "Also, missions will likely become more frequent, and there will be many emergency deployments. Living closer will be more convenient."

The two exchanged a glance.

to be honest..

They were very tempted!

Every day, my commute from the city to the factory takes one or two hours each way.

They were often busy until midnight, and Kurokawa would drive them home.

And the training room has all the professional equipment.

That's equipment that you simply can't find in gyms outside.

After a day of exercise, I'm already exhausted, and then I have to squeeze onto the bus to go home. Just thinking about it makes me tired.

Chinatsu's eyes lit up first: "Really, I can design my own room?"

"Um."

"I want a really big wardrobe! And a shelf for snacks too!"

Xun pursed her lips and asked softly, "President—approximately when will the dormitory be completed?"

"Soon," Kurokawa said. "The space is ready, and the construction team is just starting work. As long as we have the design drawings, we can move in in half a month if everything goes smoothly."

half a month.

Xun lowered her head and thought for a moment, then looked up at her sister.

Chinatsu was blinking at her frantically, her face practically screaming "Say yes, say yes!"

Kaoru let out a soft breath and finally nodded: "Then—I'll trouble you, President."

"Okay." Kurokawa stood up. "As for the room size, I can give you two 30 square meters each."

"We'll discuss the specifics later. Let's finish tidying up today first."

He turned and walked toward the research room on the second floor, his back still straight, but his pace was slower than usual.

The aftereffects of the 200% overload are still ongoing.

Chinatsu leaned close to Kaoru's ear and whispered, suppressing her excitement, "I wonder if we could get the president to build a hot spring..."

Kaoru didn't respond, but just looked at Kurokawa's back and then looked down at the paper bag containing 450,000 yen in her hand.

It seems there really is something—

Things are changing little by little.

They went straight to the research room on the second floor.

The research station is currently developing a new doll.

But now, there are even more urgent tasks that need to be completed as soon as possible.

Kurokawa forcibly ended his work at the research station, preparing to devote all his computing power to researching the D-level crystal core [Godless].

He took the D-grade crystal core out of the inner bag and gently placed it into the groove in the center of the research table.

Magical energy rose from the platform like a living thing, coiling around and enveloping the crystal core, and began the basic scan.

Kurokawa brought up the parameter panel and tapped in the air with his fingertip.

He is adjusting the parameters based on his memories from his past life.

[Athena] Crystal Core.

In my previous life, when the company employed Fei Ying, we borrowed research materials from that woman.

Of course, the company also paid a monthly rental fee of 100 million yen at that time.

The company mobilized all its researchers to study the research, and it took a full two months to complete the study.

Now that I have memories of my past life, as long as I input the key data, the research platform can skip all kinds of wrong choices and complete the research at the fastest speed.

Parameters have been entered.

Click on "Start In-Depth Analysis".

hum.

The research platform shone brightly, and the energy flow, like pulsating blood vessels, enveloped the crystal nucleus and circulated at high speed.

The interface displays an estimated completion time: [1 day 12 hours]

What used to take several months can now be completed in just one day.

This can be considered a fair return on the two hundred million I spent in my previous life...

Once the analysis is complete, the technical modules and corresponding plugin blueprints contained within the crystal core will be unlocked simultaneously.

After confirming that the research was stable, Kurokawa opened the containment manual again.

My gaze fell upon the three newly generated operational tasks:

[Building staff dormitories]

[Constructing a Vehicle Workshop]

[Establish the first branch office]

Building staff dormitories is not considered a particularly important task.

It's finished, and it's probably the infrastructure that will enhance employee recovery efficiency.

For example..

Magic hot springs.

The only two things that Kurokawa truly valued were [building the vehicle workshop] and [establishing the first branch company].

Two operational tasks.

The former was easy to accomplish; his factory was originally an abandoned car factory, and it could be completed by slightly modifying the first-floor workshop.

As for the [branch offices]...

Kurokawa closed the manual and tapped his fingertips lightly on the table.

This matter can only be handled by him.

He pulled a folder from the filing cabinet next to him.

The cover reads: [Kanzaki Team - Staff Files]

Open the file that Kanzaki reported.

Currently, including himself, there are only five people on his side.

Apart from him.

There was also Washio Hachiro, the former deputy captain of the special forces team.

And a disciple of Kanzaki Jin, a 27-year-old police officer, Utsu Megumi...

He had already checked the abilities of the three of them long ago.

They can all be considered geniuses, albeit barely.

Washio Hachiro, initial combat suit release rate 29%.

Utsuhime, initial combat suit release rate: 28%.

Regarding the magic type suitability rating.

Kanzaki Jin has the highest talent, with over 60% across all types, and 80% of the Resentment type.

Both Washio Hachiro and Utsu Megumi are the same, accounting for around 60% of all species.

Kurokawa was not surprised by this result.

After all, they don't resemble the Suzukawa sisters.

He had already heard of the legendary instructor Jin Kanzaki in his previous life.

I've also heard about the glorious achievements of the Kanzaki squad.

Now, instead of joining Yagi Heavy Industries, Kanzaki Jin has come to his side.

There is absolutely nothing to criticize about their talent and ability.

The people he chose were naturally the geniuses he trusted most.

Kurokawa glanced at the employee files in his hand and muttered to himself.

"The armed security company license that Kanzaki acquired last time should be fully processed in the next couple of days, right?"

This occurred before the magical vengeful spirits were fully revealed, and before laws specifically targeting "Special Phenomena Management Companies" were enacted.

The government continues to use the Security Industry Law to deal with civilian security forces.

This law categorizes security company operations into four types.

The No. 1 security service falls under the category of facility security, which is equivalent to shopping mall security.

The second type of security service falls under traffic guidance security, equivalent to a guide at a construction site or around a large event.

These two types of security are the most common.

The least common are the No. 3 and No. 4 security operations.

The former involves armed escort, while the latter involves private bodyguards.

The former allows gun ownership, while the latter targets wealthy businessmen, celebrities, and others, and charges extremely high fees.

In order to disguise the true identity of the Night Watchmen branch.

He required Kanzaki to have the qualifications for security operations number three and four when establishing his initial company.

Kanzaki did not disappoint him.

As a former special forces captain, Kanzaki quickly obtained all of these security qualifications by leveraging his connections and his own expertise.

Kurokawa put down the file in his hand and murmured, "Compared to Kanzaki's security company, my headquarters is actually the most unprofessional one..."

Companies like Yagi Heavy Industries are military-industrial complexes, and their armed squads targeting magical vengeful spirits are all disguised as armed security units.

In fact, not only Yagi Heavy Industries, but other heavy industries and military industries also operate in this way.

His factory, on the other hand, had no qualifications whatsoever; it was registered as a regular auto repair shop.

Thinking of this, Kurokawa chuckled self-deprecatingly and didn't take it to heart.

As long as one branch office has these qualifications, that's fine. Anyway, once the major incident happens, the entire social order will be completely reshuffled.

Thinking of this, Kurokawa took out the cell phone he used specifically to contact Kanzaki.

"With 400 million this time, Kanzaki can rent a company space in the upscale neighborhood... Also, I'll leave next week's Class E containment mission to them..."
