Tokyo Reborn: Dark Superstar

Chapter 35 Mizuno Tangyue
  After knocking on the door and entering the office, Takakura Bunta saw a woman in work clothes in front of him.

Tall figure, long hair reaching waist, small lapels, five buttons, double breast pockets, two diagonal pockets, two-finger wide jacket hem closed.

The dark blue work clothes are not that fashionable, but they are clean and well-fitting. The pants are a little too baggy and the shoes are not matching.

The two exchanged simple greetings. If it weren't for the other's fluent Japanese, Takakura Bunta would have thought that he had dreamed of returning to his motherland.

"I have a batch of cosmetics here and I would like to entrust your factory to produce them."

Takakura Bunta submitted the lipstick sample created by Goro Boutique Cosmetics DIY Creative Store, as well as the accompanying design information, to Mizuno Tangyue.

"This is it? There are micro-rotor motors, humidity sensors, thermostats... um..."

Mizuno Tangyue looked at the drawing and saw the parameters inside. A trace of blush appeared on his fair face and he said:

"Takakura Bunta, you should find another factory. The order volume is too large and we can't handle it."

Takakura Bunta was stunned. The other party spoke Japanese very well, and he indeed said "the order is too big", not "too little".

Mizuno Tangyue explained: "Our factory will be closed soon because of illegal labor issues."

Takakura Bunta pointed out the window, where an Inagawa Kai flag was planted on the factory building, and asked incredulously: "The Labor Standards Bureau of Yokohama Hodogaya Ward wants to go to war with the Inagawa Kai?"

…………

In Tokyo in the Dark Star world, except for the Metropolitan Police Department and the Police Department, which need performance or major cases occur.

Under normal circumstances, whether it is the hunting house, Yamaguchi-gumi, Sumiyoshi-kai, or Inagawa-kai, they are actually the maintainers of underground order.

The underground world and the surface world have a complete communication mechanism and gray areas, and they will not break up easily.

Everyone hopes that their territory will be peaceful, harmonious and prosperous.

A Qingshui Yamen like the Labor Standards Bureau actually wants to investigate the territory protected by the executive director of the Daochuan Society. This is an act of declaration of war in the underground world...

…………

"We can no longer afford the market management fees to Inakawa Association."

Mizuno Tangyue began to pack away the parts boxes on the cabinet and said:

"The flag of the Inagawa Association will be taken back at the end of the month, and then the Labor Standards Bureau will come to investigate illegal workers. We will close down before then."

"Your order is too big and we don't have time to finish it."

Takakura Bunta understood that the connection between the Mizuno Electronics Factory and the Inagawa Club that was circulated in bars and clubs was half true and half false.

Mizuno Electronics Factory and Inagawa Society are indeed connected.

Mizuno Electronics uses illegal workers and has to pay a fee to Inagawa Kai to prevent it from being searched by the Labor Standards Bureau.

As for the relationship with Zhao Chunshu, the executive director, it should be that President Mizuno Tangyue, as a female factory owner, deliberately spread rumors and information as a bluff.

…………

Now that the factory is about to close down, Takakura Bunta can only prepare to leave and try his luck in the Nagoya Industrial Zone.

Just as Takakura Bunta was about to walk out of the office, the "super-sense" of the strongest creature in the sea, land and air triggered an effect similar to Spider-Man's "Peter-Smart".

So, he looked back.

This Mizuno Doyue is putting the parts box on the cabinet with his feet.

"He's 1.78 meters tall. It's rare for a girl in Yokohama to have a fair face, a tall body, a straight face, and a straight nose."

Gao Cangbunta looked at Mizuno Doyue's back and thought to himself.

He noticed that her overalls were very tight because she pushed the parts box up, and traces could be seen vaguely.

"This trace...is it Soviet-style Bragi?"

Takakura Bunta judged the style based on the outline of the clothes.

This style of rough workmanship and pure cotton is an imitation of the Soviet-style Bragi made in the Mainland in the 70s. The style is dull and mainly serves the purpose of protecting labor.

This style didn’t exist in Tokyo more than ten years ago.

…………

In 1996, the Chinese were the largest group of all foreigners in Japan, with more than 70 people. With the close economic and trade exchanges between the two countries, more than 3 people come to RB every year, a breakthrough in the early 21st century. 100 million.

In the 20s, apart from a small number of international students, the largest source of Chinese in RB were “stowaways”.

Most of these people come from the coast, pay a handling fee, and take a freighter to RB to work illegally.

…………

"This Mizuno Tangyue is also a stowaway who works undercover?"

Takakura Bunta was a little hesitant. Mizuno Tangyue's Japanese was too smooth.

The process of learning Japanese is very clear, starting with the syllables, then the words, and finally the grammar.

Under ideal conditions, mastering 1000 Chinese characters and 6000 vocabulary words basically requires 600 hours of study time.

It is impossible for black workers to have so much time to learn languages, let alone learn grammar in specialized language schools.

Therefore, black workers are just like the workers downstairs just now. They like to use gestures when speaking, their pronunciation is vague and rough, and their speech is messy...

.........    However, the "super-sense" of the strongest creature in the sea, land and air should not go wrong.

Takakura Bunta decided to test it out and said in Chinese: "Palace Yu Ye Liquor..."

Mizuno Tangyue's back was stunned, as if he didn't understand, and continued to push the box up.

Takakura Bunta, through the "super hearing" of the strongest creature in the sea, land and air, discovered that Mizuno Doyue's heartbeat suddenly accelerated significantly.

So Takakura Bunta continued to add more ingredients! ! !
  bang! ! !

Mizuno Tangyue didn't hold on to him, and the parts box fell off the top of the cabinet, with electronic parts scattered all over the floor.

....................................

Shuiye Tangyue, whose real name is Tang Yue.

She and this group of illegal workers were originally technical female workers at the No. 2 Electronics Factory in Bei Province and were recognized as factory belles.

In this era, the social status of ordinary workers in state-owned enterprises, including technical female workers in electronics factories, is not low at all.

Many technical secondary school students and even college students have graduated with the same goal of entering state-owned enterprises.

At the most glorious time, when the sun sets and the land is golden, there will be hundreds of female workers from the Second Electronics Factory wearing dark blue polyester khaki work clothes, carrying various small bags on their backs, with their faces full of pride, holding their heads high, and gathering in groups. Walk out of the factory gate in groups.

However, with the tide of the times, the second electronics factory soon fell into operating difficulties.

Tang Yue and her colleagues were laid off collectively.

…………

"There are two particularly loving couples. The husband is an eighth-level fitter and a senior technical expert. The wife has been a model worker in the factory for seven consecutive years. The company went bankrupt and they wanted to find a job."

"But there are only two kinds of jobs in the market."

"One is a low-level manual labor position. The income from this kind of position is not enough to eat, and you are hungry every day. It is not able to pay the heating bill when the temperature is minus 50 degrees Celsius in winter."

"The other is a position exclusively for women. Working locally can barely support themselves."

"If a woman is willing to work in the south, she can support a large family. If she can wear work clothes and bring a certificate of honor, the work squad leader will get 30 yuan extra, the labor pacesetter will get 50 yuan, and the factory flower will get 100 yuan."

"There are also businessmen from Xiangjiang who are willing to go abroad to make more money. There are also Xiangjiang businessmen who come to Northern Province specifically to organize trips to Europe to work as nannies."

After her identity was discovered by Takakura Bunta, Mizuno Tangyue seemed very calm. She slowly told her experience, flipped her hair, and walked slowly.

Listening to Mizuno Doyue's description, Bunta Takakura remembered the movie "Going to the Sea", which tells the story of a girl from Northern Province who went to Paris, Europe, to work as a "nanny".

…………

Takakura Bunta asked: "What happened next?"

Mizuno Tangyue: "The husband, wife and eldest daughter chose to work as coolies. They worked early in the morning and late at night every day for more than ten hours. The eldest daughter got sick and was hospitalized due to exhaustion, and all the money was spent on medical treatment."

"In the end, I really didn't have the money to settle the bill, so I had to leave my eldest daughter in the hospital. When I get laid off, I will go to the hospital to pick my eldest daughter back for the New Year."

“During the Chinese New Year, I only have a few dollars left in my hand.”

"At this time, the decentralized notification area has financial difficulties, and the laid-off subsidy will be reduced by 70%, and the payment will be delayed for six months..."

"The little daughter who was not yet sensible cried and wanted to eat dumplings. The mother spent all the money to buy vegetables, along with rat poison, and made a meal of dumplings. The little daughter was very happy to eat."

"After the little daughter died, the couple hanged themselves together..."

....................................

"Later, you smuggled yourself to Yokohama to work?"

Takakura Bunta clicked one and said, not paying any attention to Mizuno Doyue's slow movements.

"Well, I was very lucky. I met a fellow countryman, and the two of us got along and became best friends."

"She was very rich and would spend millions of yen in one night in Kabukicho."

"She likes Kondo Masahiko of Johnny's and bought all the academic calendars, photo albums and records of this Johnny's idol from his debut to now."

"Later, she is going to study at Seneca College in Canada. She wants to be a singer."

"She also shared with me the draft of the song she wrote, which was very nice."

Mizuno Tangyue walked around behind Takakura Bunta and hummed softly the song composed by her best friend.

…………

…………

The song Mizuno Tangyue hummed sounded a little familiar to Takakura Bunta, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he casually said: "It seems that her family is very rich."

Mizuno Tangyue said: "Well, she once wrote an essay that won first place in the district essay competition and received a bonus of 2000 yuan."

Takakura Bunta: "..."

card!

Mizuno Doyue took out a utility knife from his loose overalls, opened the blade, and slashed Takakura Bunta's throat...
