Standalone Tokyo

Chapter 44 Premonition of the Storm
  Fujiwara Masato has always known that beauty without force protection is a disaster.

Therefore, ever since he knew that he was good-looking, Fujiwara Masato would wear glasses and a mask when he went out. The reason why he kept his long hair was because the long hair could not only cover the outline of his face, but also make the Japanese pass by. People subconsciously stay away from him.

One of the stereotypes is that men with long hair are either otakus or psychos who play rock music.

However, Masato Fujiwara never expected that despite all precautions, he still encountered problems in a cafe with mainly female customers.

The Maple Leaf Club...heh, the Maple Leaf Club, it seems like it really can't stay.

In addition, Fujiwara Masato should also establish an identity as soon as possible that will prevent others from harming him at will.

For example, students from the University of Tokyo and Akamon students cannot scare big shots in Japanese society, but members of mere violent gangs really dare not go looking for trouble without legal reasons, because the Japanese police really Will launch a violent attack.

But this is all for the future. The most important thing now is the Maple Leaf Club.

After get off work today, Fujiwara Masato didn't even take a shower, so he asked Huang Mao to go out and find someone. He went to find the three people who had been investigated by Xiao Shuuchijun before. Although he had to rush to do the Maple Leaf Club, it was related to the Maple Leaf Club. Mission rewards should not be missed either.

……

It’s late at night, and all kinds of monsters and monsters in Tokyo are taking to the streets one after another. There are office workers and drunkards who are getting drunk, housewives carrying vegetable baskets and running to Pat Ching Ge’s shop, and even those in their seventies or eighties who are still wearing... The waiter wears his clothes and goes out to work overtime, always becoming a strong and healthy old man.

Minako Nakazaki was not one of these two groups. She had just gotten off work from the beauty salon and walked quickly home. As she walked, she took out her makeup mirror and used the action of putting on makeup to wait for the opportunity to observe whether there was anything behind her. People are following themselves.

Minako Nakazaki was not crazy or overly narcissistic, but because she discovered that some high school-looking gangsters had recently appeared in her home, and some neighbors even warned her that these people were inquiring about her news and family. background.

Anyone else might have thought this was all a fuss, but Minako Nakazaki was different. She did have a blood feud with a member of a certain violent group. Therefore, she began to pay attention to everyone around her in her work and life. .

It can only be said here that Toshi Komizuchi and his high school subordinates have nothing to do with their majors. When others were not paying attention, their actions were considered acceptable. When Minako Nakazaki felt something was wrong, she began to observe the people around her. At that time, their existence was completely exposed.

This immediately aroused the vigilance of Minako Nakazaki, and she quickly kept a civilian self-defense weapon in her bag that could instantly subdue and kill an adult male.

Fortunately, Komiuchi Jun's mission is only to inquire and does not involve force. Otherwise, he may really fall into the hands of Nakazaki Minako, even though the latter is only a twenty-year-old girl who looks thin and weak. , but when it comes to action, the former is not necessarily the opponent of Nakazaki Minako, who has anti-wolf spray and a dagger in her bag.

On the way home, Minako Nakazaki didn't see the gangsters who were still around her today. Instead, she was startled and became more vigilant. She put her hand into her bag and silently paid attention to anyone approaching her from the front, back, left, and right. .

The stalker disappeared. There are two possibilities. One is that they gave up, and the other is... they were ready to take action.

Minako Nakazaki remained nervous and vigilant. She tensed her nerves and returned to the door. She was not attacked. Then she took out the key and before opening the door, she lowered her head and carefully searched for the door handle.

Seeing that the hair hanging on the door handle was still there, Minako Nakazaki finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out her hand from the bag, grabbed the key with one hand and stabbed it into the keyhole, and grabbed the door handle with the other hand. Open the door.

Entering the door, turning on the entrance light, taking off her flat shoes and putting on slippers, then Minako Nakasaki walked into the living room, turned on the light again, and prepared to go to the refrigerator to take out ingredients for cooking. Then there was a click, and at the same time as the lights in the living room were turned on, Minako Nakasaki's His movements and heartbeat also stopped for a beat.

Because there was a person sitting on the sofa in the living room, a strong man wearing a black windbreaker and a hood, whose face could not be seen clearly.

After being frightened, Minako Nakazaki took a second to regain her composure. She did not scream loudly. Shouting would only stimulate the opponent to attack in advance. She just continued to walk to the refrigerator calmly. , while reaching into the satchel hanging on his shoulder.

"Who are you? A thief?" Minako Nakazaki walked to the refrigerator, with the kitchen behind her. She felt a little safer and asked the man on the sofa in the living room.

"You were very calm and didn't scream loudly when you found me. At the same time, the hair you hung on the door was also very good. Although the method is very simple, it is enough to guard against ordinary gangsters and members of violent groups." The man in a black trench coat spoke to Nakazaki Minako in an appreciative tone, but the latter didn't quite buy it.

"Who are you?" Minako Nakazaki continued to ask. It seemed that she was unwilling to say anything else without giving her an answer, or that she was stalling for time.

"It doesn't matter who I am, what's important is that you have a grudge against someone from the Maple Leaf Club." The man in the black windbreaker said this, and Minako Nakazaki was shocked.

"You are from the Maple Leaf Club!"

"Wrong judgment." The man smiled and shook his head. Then he put his hand into his arms. Minako Nakazaki tensed her body and was about to hide in the kitchen, but then she quickly relaxed after seeing that he only took out cigarettes. Come down.

Just like this, Minako Nakazaki's clothes were wet with sweat on her back.

The man in black trench coat lit the cigarette with a mechanical lighter. After taking a long puff, he wanted to say something, but paused and then continued talking.

"I have something to do tonight and I don't have time to chat with you. Now, to make a long story short, you don't need to take out the pistol you put in the kitchen. I have no hostility towards you. I am not a member of the Maple Leaf Club. On the contrary, we have to prepare Go against the Maple Leaf Society, and we happen to know that your enemy is a member of the Maple Leaf Society, so..."

"The people who have appeared around me in the past few days are your people?" Nakazaki Minako was keenly aware of the "us" mentioned by the man in the windbreaker, and quickly thought of her recent experiences. At the same time, she basically believed that this man was not hostile to her now. .

The man in black clothes nodded.

"Get to know your basic situation."

"So, what are you looking for me for? Recruiting me to be a killer?" Minako Nakazaki did not answer the man's question directly, but her answer was not negative either.

"It's not about killing people. We have a lot of manpower."

"Then why did you come to me?"

"I just want to ask you. We are going to attack the Maple Leaf Club. You and the Maple Leaf Club just happen to have a feud. We just want to ask if you want to kill someone from the Maple Leaf Club. We will collect money to do it..." Windbreaker The man was very frank, so frank that it was beyond Minako Nakazaki's expectations. She was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

After a pause, Minako Nakazaki understood the man's words clearly.

"You mean, you were preparing to attack the Maple Leaf Club, and then you happened to know that I had a grudge against someone from the Maple Leaf Club, so you came over and asked me if I would pay you to attack someone from the Maple Leaf Club?" "That's right. "The man in the trench coat nodded and admitted.

Hearing this answer, Nakazaki Minako's first reaction was to laugh. No, you are all planning to attack the Maple Leaf Society, so why should I pay you to kill the Maple Leaf Society people? Anyway, as long as you wait, you will all be killed. My enemy.

Then, the second reaction was that something was wrong. When the man in the trench coat said that they were going to attack the Maple Leaf Society, they were going to attack the Maple Leaf Society as a whole, not a specific person in the Maple Leaf Society. There was still a big difference.

After thinking of this, Minako Nakazaki stopped laughing, and she began to think about another serious and serious question...whether she should spend money.

"Who are you? How can you guarantee that you will do things after receiving the money?" Nakazaki Minako asked cautiously again. It seemed that she was moved.

"It doesn't matter who we are. The second question... you can wait for a day. We will decide to take action tonight. You can just pay attention to the news about the Maple Leaf meeting tomorrow." After saying that, the man in the windbreaker stood up and spoke again. She reached into her arms to tinker with something, but this time Minako Nakazaki was not nervous. She waited quietly for the former to take out something.

After digging around for a while, the man in the trench coat took out a business card. He stepped sideways and handed it to Minako Nakazaki with one hand. The latter put her legs together forward, grabbed the two corners of the business card with both hands, and accepted it respectfully. Pass business card.

"This is my business card. The phone number on it is valid for three days. It will be useless after three days." The man in black made a phone call gesture in his ear.

"Think it over, make this call tomorrow..." After saying that, the man in the trench coat walked out, ignoring Minako Nakazaki who was in a daze holding the business card. As soon as he walked to the entrance, the latter caught up with him.

"Wait a minute, you haven't said how much it will cost?"

"You make your own bid. The matter of getting paid to kill people is just a casual thing for us. The price is right and we don't mind working overtime. If it's not suitable, we can get together and relax. That's it. Goodbye." The man in the windbreaker said and took off his shoes. He took out a pair of leather shoes from the corner of the cabinet and put them on.

At this time, Minako Nakazaki discovered that the man actually brought his own slippers when he entered the house. He was as polite as if he was a guest at a friend's house.

The man in the trench coat suddenly appeared and disappeared like a gust of wind. Minako Nakazaki walked back into the house, took a chair and sat on the opposite side of the sofa. She began to think about the past few days and what happened tonight.

At this time, Minako Nakazaki discovered another fact... From the beginning to the end, she seemed not to see the man's face, but only heard his voice and saw a strand of yellow hair peeking out from the side of his hood.

……

The operation went relatively smoothly in the first half of tonight. Fujiwara Masato was very cautious when selecting tasks. In order to prevent the target from being contacted for profit or other purposes, he chose to inform the Maple Leaf Society after Huang Mao came into contact. He excluded gamblers and poisonous insects. Such mission objectives.

No matter how much misery and misery these people suffered because of the Maple Leaf Society, Masato Fujiwara felt that they could not be trusted, because gamblers and drug addicts were not human beings when they were addicted to gambling and drugs, and they could not think. Regarding the future of myself and my family, I will not consider the consequences of my actions, but will only think about "one more shot" and "one more puff."

Therefore, when choosing tasks, Fujiwara Masato only selected task publishers who had a grudge against the Maple Leaf Society, and during the investigation of Shun Komizuchi, it was determined that their hatred was not small, and they were basically the hatred of seizing his wife. , killing his son/rending his father, basically ensuring that even if they don't trust the uninvited Huang Mao, they will not choose to inform the Maple Leaf Association of Huang Mao's existence.

If any of these three people are willing to let go of their hatred and reconcile with the Maple Leaf Society, then Masato Fujiwara will admit that it is really bad luck for him to meet such a human mother/person who puts his own interests first.

Facts have proved that, except for Minako Nakazaki, after Huang Mao expressed his intention to come, the other two men told the latter without thinking that as long as they could kill the three leaders of the Maple Leaf Society/destroy the entire Maple Leaf Society, they were willing Pay the price of ruin.

Even a father whose son died said that he was willing to help, even if he died in action, as long as he could achieve his goal.

During this process, neither of them considered the possibility that Huang Mao was a liar. This can only be said that this husband/father has too much hatred for the Maple Leaf Club and is too desperate in daily life, so that there is a glimmer of hope. When they can achieve their goal and complete their revenge, they are not willing to miss it.

Okay, now that two of the three mission targets have been taken, and there is still one mission that can be obtained tomorrow, it is time to start tonight.

Before Fujiwara Masato turned on the system, he thought of something and looked at the time on the wall of the room.

Well, it's half past ten, and Asami Inoshita probably isn't asleep yet.

Fujiwara Masato took out his mobile phone and dialed the landline number of Inoshita's home.

"Dudududu...Moxi Moxi, this is Inoshita's house, I am Inoshita Ryoka, may I ask..." A clear and bright female voice, like a lark, came from the mobile phone.

"Moxi Moxi, my name is Masato Fujiwara. I am an employee of Jasmine Cafe. Due to work reasons, I am now looking for the owner of the cafe, Asami Inoshita. Is she free to answer the phone now?"

"Look for mom, wait a minute...Mom, there is a cafe employee named Fujiwara Masato looking for you!" As a shout came from the other side of the phone, soon, the gentle and charming voice that Fujiwara Masato was familiar with rang out. got up.

"Moxi Moxi, I am Asami Inoshita, Masato-kun, what can I do for you?"

"It's like this. I have something to do in the past two days, and I want to ask you for a two-day leave." Yes, Fujiwara Masato called just to ask for leave. On the one hand, he was preparing to concentrate on the Maple Leaf Conference, and on the other hand, he also wanted to take a leave of absence. Avoid possible harassment from the two violent gang members.

After Fujiwara Masato caused some trouble for the Maple Leaf Club, and after specifically killing these two guys, he went to work in the coffee shop... Now he goes to work in the coffee shop, not only for salary, favors and pretense, but also to keep himself occupied. stand up.

Commanding NPCs means killing people and causing trouble. It can only be a game and can never become work. Once anything becomes work, you will feel bored and resistant, even if the work can make money... This is especially true for writing novels. Once you think of it as work, you won't want to write.

"No problem, Masato-kun. You have been working continuously for the past month and have not had a break. Just take a good three days of rest and treat it as a holiday. I will pay your salary at the end of this month to your bank card tomorrow."

"Thank you, Sister Asami. It's nothing, so I'll hang up first."

"Goodbye, Masato-kun."

After Masato Fujiwara hung up the phone, he suddenly remembered the voice of the girl who answered the phone before Asami Inoshita, and then thought of another thing.

"Such a sound for waking up in bed should be very...poof, what am I thinking about!"
