death of hope

Chapter 872: "Wild Growth" (287) Smooth and Worldly

Celebration banquet, sleepless night.

In the early morning, most people went to rest and catch up on sleep to recharge their energy for subsequent actions.

The funeral of Uncle Deng and the brothers who died in the anti-rebellion operation last night was held secretly and low-key at a farm on the outskirts of Shin-Sapporo.

Chen Xing drank too much last night and his body reeked strongly of alcohol. He covered his mouth and staggered, looking like he might vomit at any time.

The normally cheerful Kung Fu boy has now become gloomy and unhappy.
The death of his sister Chen Hong had made him shed all his tears, and even when Uncle Deng's coffin was buried, he had a numb and dull expression.

Compared to Chen Xing, A Lin drank more. She was drowsy throughout the whole funeral and even fell asleep leaning on the broad shoulders of Mr. "Big Black" Diego, snoring very loudly.

This was extremely rude behavior, but no one blamed her. Experiencing so many tragedies in a short period of time was physically and mentally exhausting, and no one could bear it, so they had to numb themselves with alcohol.

Jin Quanshun and others were also exhausted. As soon as the funeral was over, they returned to the car and fell asleep.

·
Only one person was different: the young master Yamagami Tetsuya,

Thanks to the effects of the drugs, the young gangster remained eerily sober and excited throughout the entire process, which was very different from his previous performance. He seemed like a completely different person.

When laying flowers and burning incense at Uncle Deng's tombstone, Tetsuya's expression did not show the slightest trace of grief. Instead, he transformed all his sorrow into the flames of revenge, and used rude words to "greet" the eighteen generations of Kondo's ancestors.

Because of his excessive self-confidence and excitement, he did not look like a tragic person carrying a deep blood feud. Instead, he looked like a black-bellied, energetic madman.

The henchmen were whispering, saying that the young master looked a bit like the Joker in the Batman comic book, who had just been released from Arkham Asylum and was going crazy, and not quite mentally normal.

The leaders were also concerned about the young master's condition.
But now the Sanwang Society is facing internal and external troubles, and only this slightly neurotic young master can unite the gang's strength into one rope. So there is no need to care about anything else, and they have to get through the difficulties first.

"How many drugs did the young master take?" This sensitive question became a topic of whispers among the members of the Shanwang Society.

Only one person, Vladimir the Mad, knew the answer to this question.

He has connections on the black market and can get mines and rockets, not to mention illegal drugs.

The 'crazy guy' pretended to be stupid;

If someone asks him about it, he either changes the subject or keeps silent and smiles foolishly.

At this moment, he was sleeping soundly in the cabin of a Buick commercial vehicle, and no one wanted to bother him.

·
In the afternoon,

After swallowing half a bottle of sleeping pills, the young master Yamagami Toru still did not feel sleepy at all.

Simply give up resting and work, sitting in the hero's office on the father's mountain to meet visitors;
Most of the visitors today were gang leaders who had been on good terms with Musashi.

Seeing the great victory of the Sanwangkai loyalists, these people came over with gifts to curry favor with the new owner of the Sanwangkai, as if they had made an appointment.
These people belittled their former ally Musashi and beat him up when he was down, but they kept silent about the fact that they had once been in cahoots with Musashi.

Yamagami Tetsuya has never had any good feelings towards these fence-sitters and traitors.

These snobs will side with whoever wins, and never take the moral code of the underworld seriously.

If he were the passionate young man from before, he would have ordered his men to beat these shameless bastards out of the door. But now, Toru has been smoothed out by reality, and his worldview has changed drastically. He has abandoned all his unrealistic teenage fantasies.

He had to accept, embrace and integrate into these ugly, hypocritical and stinking rules of adults.

·
Yamagami Tetsuya received the guests politely, shook hands with them, thanked them for their gifts, and gave them enough face.
Even though he knew that these people had been on Musashi's side before, he pretended to be stupid and refused to mention the unpleasant past.

In the tone of the Sanwangkai boss, Toru also made plans and promises for future cooperation among the gangs, with the subtext being "You'll earn more money by hanging out with me than with the Kyokushin group!"

Despite his young age, he has already fully demonstrated the ugliness and hypocrisy of adults. These things are not entirely self-understood, most of them were taught to him by the family's new military advisor.

Throughout the afternoon, Takasugi Tsuru stood beside the desk, accompanying the young master to entertain guests. This guest was the younger brother of the former military advisor and traitor Takasugi Yoshishi.

Gao Shanhehe is smart and good at the art of thick black, but his personality is quite similar to that of ancient samurai, and he is disdainful of his brother's betrayal.

Originally, after Takasugi Yoshiji betrayed the gang, the gang leaders no longer trusted the Takasugi family and wanted to completely remove them from important positions.

However, the young master put aside his past grudges, rejected all objections, and boldly appointed Gao Shanhe as the family's military advisor.

As the saying goes, it is easy to find a good horse, but hard to find a good horse trainer. The young master's trust made the young man grateful and he vowed to help the Shanshang family make a comeback.

It turns out that Takasugi Tsuru is far superior to his traitorous brother in terms of both loyalty and business ability.

After being promoted, he put the gang's internal and foreign affairs in good order.

Whenever the young master meets a guest, this military advisor can always accurately analyze the visitor's character and teach the young master how to control the other party.
How to speak to people in a human way and to ghosts in a ghost way, and he has brought the "Thick Black Theory" to its extreme. It is precisely because of his existence that the young master of the Sanwang Society has become more and more worldly-wise.
·
With such a shrewd and capable military advisor by his side, Yamagami Tetsuya's communication skills have been qualitatively improved, and all the visiting guests return with smiles on their faces.

This effort may not necessarily create a loyal ally, but it will definitely reduce a potential enemy for the Sanwang Society, so it's a win-win in every way.

After meeting twelve visitors in a row, Yamagami Toru stretched and yawned, finally feeling a little sleepy.
The military advisor looked at his watch and said that after meeting one more person, they could rest.

However, this thirteenth visitor was a real troublemaker.

From the moment this visitor stepped into the office, before he even spoke, Toru already began to dislike him;
The visitor was a gray-haired middle-aged man in his fifties with a stern face. He did not bring any gifts. As soon as he came in, he sat down without any courtesy and crossed his legs.

Gao Shanhe leaned over and whispered to the young master:

"This guy is a federal prosecutor named Du Qiudong. He is known for his integrity and integrity, and he cannot tolerate any injustice.

Young Master, be careful. This guy has a weird temper and is difficult to deal with.

He is a stubborn person who refuses bribes or sweet talk. He is more like a performance artist than a prosecutor.
He seldom does practical things and prefers to stand on the moral high ground to force people to tell the truth in order to satisfy his strange sense of justice.

Prosecutor Du Qiu knows very well who is protecting us. He knows that he cannot touch the senator's cake, but he can't stop him from using tricks to disgust us.

If the young master tries to please him like before, it will only anger this guy. The correct approach is to divert the blame.
Don't try to clear your own sins, but emphasize the darkness of the Federation, your own helplessness, and how other gangs are even worse crimes, causing this guy's brain to short-circuit.

Prosecutor Du Qiu is a stubborn person. In previous cases, he was always overly obsessed with absolute procedural justice and easily fell into self-contradiction, which was his fatal weakness. "

"understood."

Yamagami Tetsuya nodded;
"Interesting guy, let me deal with him."
