Masked Rider, but kindhearted

Then today, Monday, the office received an unexpected new piece of information...about a casino.

Judging from the voice, it was a very young man who specifically asked to convey this information to Tendo Souji and claimed to be his fan.

So, Shotaro Zuo called Tendo Souji over.

As for this casino, it is naturally the million-dollar arena built by Kaga Taizo.

Jun'ichi Abe was preparing to handle this family matter, and by the way, he had an idea and used this information to get acquainted with Tendo Souji.

It’s not to the extent of being a fan, he simply admires the other person.

......

This is not a very cold piece of trivia. Although Japan's gambling culture is deeply rooted, people are not unfamiliar with gambling, and there are even endless gambling games.

However... direct gambling in Neon is illegal.

Key word: direct.

In other words, gambling can be legalized through some technical means of circumventing the law.

The most representative one is the steel ball game, Pachinko.

The logic of this pinball game is quite simple. Players use cash to purchase steel balls as tokens, play the game → the steel balls won can be exchanged for prizes → and then the prizes can be cashed in through a third-party store.

After such a simple series of steps, a gray industrial chain that is frantically testing the edge of illegality has been formed.

Although this is essentially gambling, it has not been banned due to legal loopholes.

As for why the loopholes in the law are not filled?

Ahem...your voice is so sharp!

It is really "I sigh deeply and wipe away my tears, mourning the people's shrill voices."

Don’t ask, if you ask, it’s the law passed down by our ancestors, and it cannot be changed!

After all, the Abe family is an orthodox aristocratic family that has been passed down for countless generations. Naturally, they would not touch the shady business like Pachinko... They bet on horses openly.

Compared to pachinko, a game of hitting small steel balls that is not worthy of being played, horse racing not only sounds much more elegant, but it can also be justified as being done to boost local economic development and increase tax revenue.

After all, the construction and maintenance of the racecourse that supports horse racing, the breeding and training of horses... etc. all require real money investment.

The Abe family only runs one horse farm, called Reina Horse Farm. As for why it is called this name...Jun'ichi Abe's mother, the former eldest daughter of the Abe family, is called Reina Abe.

China has a ceremony called "Zhuazhou": it is performed when the child is one year old, and is used to symbolically predict the child's future development direction. It is worth mentioning that Zhu Mingcheng (Chinese name), also known as Abe Jun'ichi (Japanese name), did not catch anything during the "Zhuazhou" ceremony. He rolled over and fell off the table, leaving everyone present unable to react.

If the table wasn't so low, the Abe family might have lost their heir (this is the dark history of Master Abe, please delete it for 50 cents).

In Neon, there is a similar ceremony called "Shichigosan":

It is a traditional ceremony held specifically for children aged 3, 5, or 7, aiming to pray for the healthy growth of the children.

The custom originated during the Heian period, when nobles and samurai would perform ceremonies for their children to symbolize their growth from infancy to childhood.

Children of different ages hold different ceremonies to mark different stages of growth.

Three-year-old children will begin to grow their hair long, symbolizing the growth into childhood;

Five-year-old boys don their first set of hakama, symbolizing the journey into adulthood;

When a girl reaches the age of seven, she will wear an adult belt for the first time, which means she is about to enter maturity. This ceremony symbolizes the girl's growth into a young lady and also carries the family's love and blessings for her.

Generally speaking, only big families like the Abe family would be so particular.

On the day of Shichi-Go-San, children wear beautiful kimonos and go to the shrine with their families to pray for healthy growth in the future.

In addition to wearing kimonos and visiting shrines, families also prepare "Chitose Amai" for their children:

This is a candy that symbolizes longevity and health. It is usually beautifully packaged and printed with auspicious patterns such as cranes and turtles, which symbolize longevity and happiness.

According to unofficial historical records, Jun'ichi Abe's mother, Reina, met a cute little pony on her way to a shrine on the day of the "Shichi-Go-San" festival... and was sneezed in the face by it.

"Little pony is so cute... How dare you blow your snot in my face! I'll send you racing every day until you die, okay?"

That was probably the situation. The Abe family's mistress spoke, and so the foal became a racehorse. Because it was a mare, it was also given the name "Ice-cold Speedy Princess".

The publicity gimmick was: the favorite horse of the little princess of the Abe family, of noble pedigree and a cold and arrogant personality...

No one knows the specific situation, but the Reina Racecourse was opened in this way. Thanks to the huge amount of capital, it has not made a loss in all these years of operation.

Of course, this is just unofficial history...

Abe Junyi only heard about it once from his father Zhu Siyuan. That night, his father was tortured by his mother Reina. In short, he had to lean on the wall when he walked out the next day and could not even straighten his back.

Having said that, Kaga Taizo is very good at horse racing. To be precise, as a veteran gambler, he is proficient in almost every gambling technique, so he was fortunate to be hired to manage the Abe family's Reina racing farm.

However, recently, Taizo Kaga has become restless. Not only did he secretly transfer part of Reina Baba's assets, but he also created a fantasy casino, the Million Arena.

In Fuuto, if a normal person becomes abnormal, it is likely related to Gaia's memory.

Taizo Kaga is no exception. The reason he did this was that he got a memory stick from the Sonosaki family that was very compatible with him!

Through superb gambling skills and generous rewards, Kaga Taizo can lure greedy people to the gambling table, squeeze out all their value, and ultimately induce gamblers to put their last chip on the line: their life!

Million-dollar arena, stealing money and killing people!

The old butler originally planned to remove this cancer himself, but his young master seemed to enjoy the game of playing heroes, so he handed this little bastard over to the young master to practice.

Under such circumstances, Jun'ichi Abe invited Tendo Souji through the Narumi Detective Agency.

Of course, this was what he considered an invitation - after all, given that man's character, as long as he got information about a crime, he would not ignore it.

Then in this way, his purpose of getting to know the other party is achieved, win!

And it's a win-win situation. Young Master Abe wins twice: he can eradicate the cancer in his own family and also meet with Police Officer Tiandao.

Chapter 124: Very good breasts, making my thunder sword spin (4K)

Ming Hai Detective Agency, move out!

When Tendou Souji got on his motorcycle, he found an uninvited guest at the door - a girl with a bun.

This guy doesn't work on Monday? Why is he dressed up?

Time goes back to a few hours ago, at the Sonosaki family residence.

At that time, after Jun'ichi Abe finished his phone call with the old housekeeper, he was about to yo-yo under the pretext of dealing with his unfaithful subordinates.

"Wait, I'm going too!"

Sonosaki Wakana appeared from behind Abe Junichi, without any sense of guilt for eavesdropping.

This is the Sonosaki family, and she is the eldest daughter of the Sonosaki family!

What do you mean by eavesdropping? If I hear this information, it's mine!

Sonosaki Wakana hosts several programs on Fuuto Radio, one of which is called "Fuuto Mysterious Journey", a program dedicated to introducing Fuuto mysterious events/urban legends.

She had already learned about the existence of "Dream Casino Million Arena" from a recent listener submission.

Legend has it that this place can make a person's wealth double and become rich overnight, but it can also make people fall from the clouds and plunge into the abyss.

If it were just the former, it wouldn't be enough to make Miss Wakana look at her sideways - after all, she wasn't interested in money at all. With the financial resources of the Sonosaki family, she didn't even need to look at the price tags when she went shopping.

What really attracted her was the latter, which was dangerous and exciting.

Isn't it normal for a good girl to like danger and excitement?

Otherwise, how would Huangmao (crossed out) and the like have a chance?

Of course, there was a trivial additional reason - she heard this guy plotting loudly... at the Sonosaki family's place, calling the Narumi Detective Agency!

Then maybe I can meet that guy Tendō Souji on this trip?

Miss Wakana is definitely not here for a chance encounter, she just wants to supervise Junichi Abe and make sure he doesn't betray the Sonosaki family!

As for her own double-agent behavior?

Ahem, she just backstabbed her sister...it was a friendly interaction between sisters, how could it be considered a betrayal of the family?

Abe Jun'ichi refused without hesitation: "No."

How ridiculous it is to let the daughter of the Sonosaki family get involved in the Abe family's affairs!

What's more... he was planning to meet with Kamen Rider. If he was exposed, Sonosaki Ryubei might send someone to assassinate him.

Although according to some rumors, this young lady has close contacts with the Tiandao police officer, but what if she is just using the beauty trap to act as a spy?

Thinking of this, Abe Jun'ichi became even more determined: "No means no, I won't agree to it no matter what you say."

"Then I'll tell Father!"

......

It turns out that suing parents is not only effective for children, but also for Jun'ichi Abe.

Especially since the name of this parent is Sonosaki Ryubei.

For Jun'ichi Abe, whether it is for revenge of his dead first love, self-protection of the Abe family, or for the city of Fuuto, Sonosaki Ryubei must be severely crushed.

but not now.

He listened to people's advice and had a full meal. He still had to reach the maximum level in the game before fighting the boss. Besides, the masked woman Sherad was so sure that he had no chance of winning.

Then Jun'ichi Abe naturally has to fight monsters to level up first (using small fry that are commonly sold), find a big partner (Kamen Rider) and then consider fighting a boss battle with this old guy.

After weighing the pros and cons, Jun'ichi Abe and Wakana Sonosaki each took a step back.

As for Jun'ichi Abe, he didn't want to have too much to do with this young lady. At most, he gave the clay doll an address and let her go there by herself.

As for Sonosaki Wakana, it was enough for her to know how to get there. Anyway, she had no intention of riding in this guy's car.

All in all, everyone is happy... probably... right?

Looking at Jun'ichi Abe and Wakana Sonosaki whispering to each other and then leaving, the host of the wedding, Sonosaki Yako, couldn't help but frown.

Abe Junichi? How did this guy end up with Wakana?

What on earth did they talk about...

Although Sonosaki Yako is temporarily managing the museum on behalf of Sonosaki Ryubei, she knows very well that she is just a pawn in her father's hands.

Compared to himself, his father actually prefers his younger sister Wakana.

Her father had repeatedly mentioned letting Wakana take over the family business; he had even given her a special memory device called a "Clay Doll" and even found her a husband, the young master of the prestigious Abe family in Fuuto...

Although this is just a rumor, judging by the way the two of them were standing together chatting and laughing (Wakana was threatening Junichi with her father), it seems that it is not groundless.

Doesn't this action clearly tell Ruocai: The prince is ill, you should encourage him!

For this reason, even though he knew that Wakana did not care about fame and fortune, Sonosaki-chan still wanted to avoid this risk.

She was not cruel enough to attack her sister, so as an outsider, Jun'ichi Abe could only become a victim.

Glancing at her husband Kirihiko, who was beaming beside her, Sonosaki's cold poker face cracked into a smile as she waved at him.

"Anata (dear), come here~"

Half a minute later, after hearing that he was going to assassinate Jun'ichi Abe, Sonosaki Kirihiko couldn't help but say:

"Boy, today is our wedding, can we change it to another day..."

"No!" Seeing that her husband, whom she had personally tamed, was trying to rebel against her, Sonosaki immediately frowned and said, "Our previous actions have been repeatedly frustrated, and the factory we built with great difficulty was also destroyed by a surprise attack. This is a good opportunity for you to show your father the power of Nazca!"

"Besides, only by killing Jun'ichi Abe and taking down the Abe family can we atone for our mistakes... and only then can we have a future!"

"For me, for us... go kill him, okay?"

Having said that, Sonosaki-chan stroked Kirihiko's face, staring at him with her spring-filled eyes.

Feeling his wife's soft and cold fingertips, Sonosaki Kirihiko's body couldn't help but feel a surge of heat, and he nodded and said:

"You know, boy, I can't resist your request."
