I suddenly became a yakuza boss.

"It's okay, I'll manage my time well."

Yukino put her phone back in her bag, looked at Li Xuan again, and asked with a wry smile, "As for you, I've always remembered the words, 'No matter how much the path arranged goes against my will, I will always try my best to achieve the best outcome.' Please don't let that promise down, okay?"

"..."

Li Xuan was stunned; she actually remembered what he had said back then.

The sky gradually darkened.

Even after saying goodbye to Yukino Yukinoshita, Li Xuan still couldn't bring himself to tell the girl that he was a member of the yakuza.

Normal work, normal life...

Even though it was brief, he felt a sense of peace and comfort during those few moments.

The passersby gradually left the street, but Li Xuan remained silent and hesitant.

Standing in the darkness, I long to return to that feeling I once had, yet it remains unchanged...

In short, Li Xuan decided to deal with the Youjing Group first, and wait and see how things develop for the time being.

Chapter 030 Li Xuan and the Immortal Dragon

Early morning, a luxury apartment building in Chiba.

In room 06 on the 22nd floor, the study lights were still on. Yukino Yukinoshita had been sitting in front of the computer for four hours, with various Japanese job posting websites and company background information displayed on the screen.

This resume of [Nitta Gen] is concise, but it was made after she constantly considered, revised and embellished it, which shows that she put a lot of effort into it. The companies she helped him find were all relatively good large and medium-sized corporations.

Everything was for this person to get back on their feet.

"Phew... I wonder which company will offer an interview opportunity."

Yukino Yukinoshita felt a little tired and couldn't help but pinch the Seimei acupoint on the bridge of her nose with her fingers, thinking to herself.

She couldn't help but glance at the scenery outside the window to relieve her tired eyes.

The pretty young woman wondered to herself, "Has that person been preparing properly for the interview all this time...?"

......

On the other hand, it is a bustling commercial street in the city.

With a loud crash, an advertising light in a shop was overturned, and four or five members of the Ashikawa gang fled in panic through the streets.

"How did they get here!"

"Hey, you bastard, what are you doing? Run! Run!!"

The members of the Ashikawa group seemed to be outnumbered. They got up in terror and ran down another street!

After five or six days of street fighting, and after the Yui Group had calmed things down for a few days, the Ashikawa Group relaxed its vigilance in order to recuperate. Tonight, they were ambushed. The Yui Group actually organized a team of over a hundred people, ready to completely crush the exhausted local tyrant Ashikawa Group, which had been on the defensive.

At the end of the street, more than 130 gang thugs, armed with various weapons and with ferocious faces, surged out and began to press towards the last line of defense of the Ashikawa group.

"Surrender, Ashikawa! Our Yui-gumi is taking this territory!"

The crew-cut officer of the Yui Group, covered in blood, led his subordinates, who filled the street, to surround a dozen or so members of the Ashikawa Group who had fled together. The scene was particularly eerie in the dim light as he tried to persuade them to surrender.

Strangely, the surrounded Ashikawa gang thugs remained unmoved, some smoking, some drinking, none of them showing any fear.

In the street, a cold voice announced, "Boss, their main force has arrived."

In the hazy night fog of the street, the Ashikawa group began to disperse to both sides, and finally a figure emerged from the crowd.

Short yellow hair, purple sunglasses, a ramrod-straight posture, and a fierce aura like a demon of the night...

The more than one hundred main thugs of the Youjing Group felt as if the temperature around them had dropped when they saw the person dressed in this outfit.

"We knew all along that we'd run into you sooner or later..."

The Youjing Group cadre stared cautiously at the man and said, "...War Demon."

Li Xuan stood in the center of his subordinates, unmoved by the crowd that outnumbered him several times over, his gaze sharp and deep, and said, "Tell Youjing tonight that his group is finished."

"What a joke." The flat-headed cadre chuckled darkly and said, "You originally had very few people stationed here, and so many of them were injured by us. The rest of you are exhausted from our harassment. Hmph, everything is going according to Sister Youjing's plan. You now have less than forty people you can use on this street. No, you only have a dozen or so left!"

"I've heard about you too. I heard you can blow up someone's building without saying a word, and you recently beat that centurion from Kanto. Stop looking down on us! We don't care if you're some trash or a war ghost! This territory is ours, the Youjing Group!!"

The flat-headed cadre shouted sternly.

Li Xuan asked, "When did I say I only had a dozen or so people?"

The bald-headed cadre paused for a moment, then asked, "What?"

Soon, the members of the Ashikawa group, who had been lying in ambush in various places around the streets and alleys, began to flood into the surrounding streets like a tide.

There were a total of seventy or eighty people.

“I had heard long ago that Hibari Yui was a very shrewd person. When she kept harassing me and didn’t take the initiative to meet with me, I realized that she was looking for an opportunity when I made a mistake. So I kept arranging for my injured subordinates to be hospitalized or recuperate at home, and for those who were not injured to pretend to be injured. I knew that she would definitely calculate my numbers and eventually boldly mobilize all her main forces to take over the three streets of Ashikawa.”

After Li Xuan reunited with more of his men, he stared at them and said calmly, "That's why I've been searching for your main force. Now, haven't I found it?"

The cadres of the Youjing Group turned pale and remained silent.

After a brief moment of calm, the leader, a crew-cut cadre, suddenly shouted, "Men! For Boss Yu-i, for our leader, let's crush those bastards from the Ashikawa group!!"

On the dark streets, a decisive street battle erupted between the Ashikawa Group and the Yui Group.

In order to fight the main force of the Yui Group, Li Xuan personally took action and joined the battle, which immediately gave the Ashikawa Group a huge advantage.

However, during the process of defeating several skilled officers of the Youjing Group, Li Xuan was surprised to find that these people were like they had been injected with chicken blood. Despite being seriously injured, they still managed to get up and stand in front of him. Even though they could not win, they still stood in front of him.

In this decisive and brutal brawl over gang territory, even the street's electrical boxes were twisted beyond recognition from the collisions, ultimately ending in a complete victory for the Ashikawa group.

The ground was littered with wounds, unconscious yakuza, and those injured by knives and clubs.

Only Li Xuan remained unharmed, standing in the street at the end...

His hands are covered in other people's blood.

"......"

Li Xuan seemed to sense something, and he turned his head to look.

Looking at that ethereal, indistinct place.

His face showed no sign of happiness.

Like a lonely ghost...

The following day, inside the company.

Team leader "Old Man" accepted Li Xuan's mission report.

“Well done, very reliable. Now that commercial area should be back to normal.”

The old man chuckled and remarked with emotion.

Li Xuan felt somewhat guilty and politely said, "I'm sorry, even with an ambush, we suffered heavy losses. During the fight, I could sense that the other side was using all their strength to ensure their group's survival."

“The Yui Group is quite different from other yakuza factions. No, it should be said that it is a more traditional clan-based family that has fought with their fathers in the past. Like the old man, they are stubborn and out of touch with the times.”

The old man seemed to be reminiscing about the past, and spoke to Li Xuan.

"..." Li Xuan could tell that his father didn't seem to dislike the Youjing Group.

"Alright, you've done a great job. You were originally in an administrative role, and I didn't want you to be too involved in physical violence. I transferred you to these tasks as part of an emergency. Starting the day after tomorrow, you can focus on running the company."

The old man said with a chuckle.

"Thank you so much."

Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and said.

Li Xuan left the headquarters and walked alone on the street.

It was rush hour, and the city streets were crowded with pedestrians, while the sky was ablaze with the colors of the sunset.

—【Knock knock.】

A notification tone sounded on Line.

Li Xuan checked his phone and found that the profile picture of Yukino Yukinoshita, which had been silent for several days, finally started moving.

Li Xuan's eyes widened slightly in surprise.

As a result, Yukino Yukinoshita sent several text messages on Line: 【Please arrive at the office building of Akita Machinery Co., Ltd., Inage Ward, Chiba City, before 8:00 AM tomorrow.】

Yukinoshita's account: 【Please be sure to wear formal attire】.

Yukinoshita's account: [Fill out your resume according to the document I sent.]

"..." Li Xuan looked at these messages with a puzzled expression, and then remembered his promise to Yukino Yukinoshita.

I never expected that even someone like him with such qualifications could find me a pretty good interview opportunity!

Li Xuan, wearing sunglasses, stood in the street, looking at the messages on his phone, a thought he had never voiced before.

Standing under the sunset sky, surrounded by the ever-flashing city lights, Li Xuan stood in the bustling passageway, lost in thought.

This yakuza officer, who had been with the organization for a year and a half, always harbored an ideal.

Will I one day be able to change this special identity and return to the stable life I desire?

Naturally, society and organizations wouldn't easily allow him to leave the yakuza world, but even just trying it out and returning to a life outside the yakuza world was incredibly tempting for Li Xuan.

Rumble...

In the city streets, there is always such a noisy sound lingering in your ears.

After some hesitation, Li Xuan finally replied simply: 【Received.】

~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~

On the top floor of an office building, several battered and bruised men returned to Youjing Company.

In the rooftop conference room, the six most important members of the group, some with broken arms and others with several stitches to their heads, bowed in unison to a woman in a kimono and apologized, saying, "We are very sorry, Boss."

"Really? He even schemed against these things?" The middle-aged woman in a kimono, standing alone in front of the empty office desk, asked calmly.

Hibari Yui, wife of Yui Oka, the leader of the Yui Group, is a beautiful woman with talent and courage admired by everyone in the Yui Group.
