Gin likes me?

"...Please stop talking, Sonoko."

"Hee hee~"

"Don't laugh either."

"Hee hee~"

"You're still laughing, you haven't stopped yet!"

"Hey, but I'm not laughing, Kurosawa-nii?"

"Forehead?"

174: What a coincidence!

"Sorry, I was the one laughing. Sorry~"

Covering her lips with her left hand and standing in front of her, Suzuki Ayako tilted her head playfully, blinked and said sorry to Uozuka Saburo.

"Ah, sister, you're back!~"

Seeing Suzuki Ayako behind her, Suzuki Sonoko stood up suddenly, threw away the handle and ran into Suzuki Ayako's arms.

"Well, I'm back, Sonoko~"

Hugging her sister with a smile, Suzuki Ayako's gentleness at this moment made even Uozuka Saburo, who didn't want to talk, look at her sideways.

This kind of tenderness towards his sister and family is different from the tenderness he shows to himself when he is with himself.

No! Bah! Don’t be fooled. If you want to be gentle, you’ve been tricked and played with more often!

I am already a vigilant and well-trained killer! I cannot be manipulated by this woman again!

After straightening his face, Uozuka Saburo took a deep breath and thought it would be better to say hello.

The more natural you act, the more it shows that there is nothing wrong with you, and you won't feel guilty looking at her!

Yes, just be more natural. Just get along with Suzuki Ayako the same way you get along with the guys you train with in the organization.

"I'm back, Mr. Kurosawa."

However, before Uozuka Saburo could speak, Suzuki Ayako, who had raised her hand to stroke Sonoko's hair, turned her gaze back to Uozuka Saburo and uttered a very ordinary greeting with a smile.

"Um, welcome back."

He answered subconsciously, and seeing the happier smile on Suzuki Ayako's face, Uozuka Saburo's mouth twitched, and he wanted to slap himself in the face.

What the two people said were indeed very ordinary greetings, but the relationship between the two people should not be able to use such ordinary greetings!

And looking at Suzuki Ayako's happy little face, Uozuka Saburo knew that what she was thinking in her heart must be different from what he wanted to express.

"Sister, you guys are really too much. You clearly promised me that you would go home for dinner together today, but you and mom and dad didn't come back, and you left me alone at home!"

Without paying attention to the atmosphere between her sister and Uozuka Saburo, Suzuki Sonoko, after acting coquettishly for a while, broke free from Suzuki Ayako's arms, put her hands on her hips, and expressed her dissatisfaction angrily.

"I'm sorry, it happened so suddenly, so Mom and Dad can't do anything. As for me, I have some things to help with, so I can't leave."

Looking at her sister apologetically, Suzuki Ayako half squatted down, still gently stroking Suzuki Sonoko's hair, her voice full of pampering and tenderness.

"Sister promises that this kind of accident will not happen next time. I will definitely go home and eat with Yuanzi, okay! ~ So Yuanzi, don't be angry~"

"That's a deal." Nodding seriously, seeing her sister coaxing her like this, Suzuki Sonoko felt embarrassed to pretend to be angry anymore. She touched her head with a smile and pointed happily at the food that had been cleaned up by Tanaka Hajime, but some snacks were left for Uozuka Saburo as a midnight snack.

"But I also had a very happy meal tonight. I ate it with Kurosawa-nii!"

"Really? You're not going to pester Brother Kurosawa to buy you something again, are you?"

She smiled and took a look at the food on the table. Although she was a little dissatisfied with Sonoko eating such food with too many ingredients and low nutritional value, considering that this might be the food that Uozuka Saburo liked, Suzuki Ayako had no way to refute anything.

"No, when I came, Kurosawa brother and Tanaka uncle had already started eating. I knocked on the door obediently and was led in by Kurosawa brother before I started eating!"

Looking at Suzuki Ayako unhappily, Suzuki Sonoko said that she was not such a greedy child!

In order to prove that what she said was true, Suzuki Sonoko turned around and pulled on Uozuka Saburo's sleeve, looking at him expectantly hoping to get his support!

"Well, Sonoko has always behaved very well."

He smiled and touched Sonoko's head. Although this girl had just defeated him 7-0, Uozuka Saburo said that he was not the kind of person who held grudges and it was not worth it to seek revenge over such a thing.

Ah, no, if I think about it this way, I feel even more pitiful... Sonoko seems to be one year younger than Shiho.

"As expected, it's better not to play video games in the future."

This sad thought flashed through his mind involuntarily. Uozuka Saburo held back a sigh, glanced at the clock on the wall, and spoke to Suzuki Ayako who was looking at him silently.

"Okay, if you come back, take the little girl back with you. There's no need to find time. You should always spend some time with your parents before going to bed at night."

"Okay, can I still come and play with you, Kurosawa-nii, tomorrow?"

Although she didn't have a lot of fun, looking at Uozuka Saburo's somewhat tired expression, Suzuki Sonoko still nodded obediently, but the last sentence still exposed her childish nature.

"Not necessarily tomorrow, I also have work to do." He smiled and shook his head. Looking at Suzuki Sonoko's sudden lost expression, Uozuka Saburo raised the corner of his mouth and said playfully.

"But if you go to bed early and get up early, Sonoko, and behave yourself all day, I might have some time at night~"

"Hmph, don't treat me like a child!" Suzuki Sonoko pouted in dissatisfaction after being teased by Uozuka Saburo's tone, but she had already grabbed Suzuki Ayako's hand and was ready to leave for the door.

It’s not easy to go to bed early and get up early. I can fall asleep as soon as I touch the pillow!

"Okay, Sonoko, wait for me outside the door now. I'll talk to brother Kurosawa and then come out to find you, okay?" She gently pinched Suzuki Sonoko's palm. After Sonoko obediently ran out of the room by herself, Suzuki Ayako turned her gaze to Uozuka Saburo across the room.

"I'm so sorry, I was planning to come back earlier today, but something happened and I was delayed. I'm sorry to have caused you trouble, Sonoko."

"No, I like that girl very much. It's not a bother." He waved his hand. Uozuka Saburo was not lying.

"It can be seen that Sonoko is very attached to you, Mr. Uozuka." After blinking, Suzuki Ayako's tone suddenly became playful.

"But Mr. Uozuka, don't be too nice to Sonoko, otherwise I'll be jealous."

"...Tsk, you are her sister, what nonsense are you talking about." Choked by Suzuki Ayako's words, Uozuka Saburo glared at Suzuki Ayako unhappily.

"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, go ahead. I'm ready for bed too."

"Mr. Uozuka, are you tired? Then I won't bother you anymore." Suzuki Ayako nodded with a smile. Her straightforward attitude made Uozuka Saburo feel a little strange, so she stopped when she was about to open the door.

"By the way, Mr. Uozuka, do you have anything to do tomorrow morning?~"

"...According to the requirements, I need to be responsible for patrolling the east and north sides of the Suzuki residence from 7 to 10 in the morning."

"That's fine then. In that case, could Mr. Uozuka accompany me out tomorrow?"

"Ha, why should I..."

"Oh, by the way, it's a coincidence that the person who suddenly invited me and my parents to have dinner together today happened to be the chairman of Dadao Group, Dadao Diping~"

"...You are the employer, you have the final say."

"Hehe~ Then we have a deal, good night, Mr. Uozuka~"

"An, An!"

175: Tomorrow will be a fierce battle!

"How was it, did today's operation go smoothly?"

There came a sound on the phone that sounded like someone eating noodles while looking through some documents. Uozuka Saburo, who was leaning on the bed and wiping his hair with a towel, thought about how he seemed to have nothing to do today, and reluctantly gave an answer that was not against his will.

"It's OK. It's a pretty peaceful day, but there's nothing to gain."

"I see. Don't worry. You are already amazing to be able to blend in skillfully."

Not knowing the specific situation on Uozuka Saburo's side, Daimon Miyuki spoke up to comfort him.

After all, their plan has already completed the prerequisites, but the important part has not yet arrived.

"The Daobu Ping side shouldn't have contacted you, right?"

"Of course not. He's not a fool. I've just been integrated into the Suzuki family's bodyguard system. Even if he wants to find out something, he needs to let me get familiar with it."

A teasing remark about the young master who was being plotted against by them without realizing it, this was the only amusement that Uozuka Saburo could find now.

"What about you? Did you get anything?"

"Things aren't going as smoothly for me as they are for you." Shaking his head with some disappointment and swallowing the ramen in his mouth, Daimon Miyuki looked at the documents and photos that had filled the entire table, picked up the plastic bowl with great distress and took another sip of soup.

"After my investigation, the Avenue Group, which originally had a chance to integrate, has now been internally banned."

"Internal ban, what does that mean?"

Blinking in confusion, Uozuka Saburo sat up straight.

This was somewhat different from their original plan. Originally in their plan, Uozuka Saburo was responsible for integrating into the Suzuki Group and trying to be a so-called spy, waiting to gain the trust of Daidobe Taira and thus get the opportunity to work for him.

And Daimon Yuxing certainly cannot sit idle either.

Finding a way to integrate himself into the Dadao Group, or even better, into Dadaobe Ping's family, is what he needs to accomplish.

But now it seems that this plan is not going smoothly.

"Yes, just this morning, an order from the chairman Da Dao Di Ping was sent out from within the Da Dao Group. The order roughly means that from now on, the Da Dao Group will not allow any arbitrary changes in personnel positions within one month, and it is forbidden for new employees to appear in the Da Dao Group."

"Ha, what kind of mindless order is this? Are you crazy?"

After hearing Daimon Miyuki's explanation, Uozuka Saburo could not accept it at all.

"Well, I think you are right. You are indeed sick." He nodded in agreement and took out a photo he took today. Daimon Yuxing's eyes flickered and he already had some ideas in his mind.

“Don’t forget where the opportunities we were looking for came from in the first place.”

"...Because the chairman of Dadao Group, Dadao Diping, is ill and needs an operation, he wants to take this opportunity to hand over the group to his son?"

After a moment's pause, Uozuka Saburo quickly recalled the intelligence summary he had seen at the time.

"Yes, today I secretly followed Da Dao Di Ping who should have gone to the hospital to prepare for the body adjustment before the operation. He really looked in poor health. However, even in this situation, he still took Da Dao Di Ping to a dinner party. No, to be precise, he invited others to dinner."

"Did you invite someone from the Suzuki family?"

He raised his eyebrows and thought of what Suzuki Ayako said to him before she left, and Uozuka Saburo subconsciously followed suit.

"Yes, it's the current head of the Suzuki Group, Suzuki Shiro, his wife, and their eldest daughter."

Not noticing the subtlety in Uozuka Saburo's tone, nor thinking that there was anything wrong with Uozuka Saburo, who had already started working at the Suzuki family, guessing the question, Daimon Miyuki just continued to speak quickly about his findings and ideas.

"I didn't have the chance to eavesdrop on what they said at the dinner. If you can, Yuzhong, please try to find out."

"Well, I'll do my best." With a flicker in his eyes, Uozuka Saburo felt that the things that Daimon Miyuki found difficult seemed to be no problem for him.

If you want to know, you can go and ask this woman Suzuki Ayako tomorrow.

Uozuka Saburo believed that she would definitely tell him what they had discussed at the dinner.

The only thing to worry about is.

"That Ayako girl will definitely not let me off so easily." Grinning, Uozuka Saburo felt that he should change his thoughts and actions a little.

It is no use trying to avoid Suzuki Ayako all the time. What I need is to let Daidobe Ping see my value as quickly as possible, and then find an opportunity to complete the task!

"By the way, although you didn't successfully get involved in the Da Dao Group, it shouldn't be a problem for you to track Da Dao Bu Ping and get his general pattern of action, right?"

"That's no problem, but what do you want to do, Uozuka?"

"Of course, it's to let Daobu Ping see my value. The most important thing for us is to get the transaction record that the organization needs as quickly as possible."

"That's true, but are you sure you can come up with a result that will satisfy Daidobe Taira? You've just started working for the Suzuki family."

Picking up the phone with speakerphone on with some confusion, Miyuki Daimon felt that Uozuka Saburo was a little anxious.

"Ah, you don't need to worry about that. I didn't have the nerve to tell you before, but I actually have some relationship with the head of the Suzuki family's bodyguards."

After a light cough, Saburo Uozuka, who did not want to expose his relationship with Suzuki Ayako, decided to use Tanaka Flag's identity to cover it up.

"I see. Then I was wondering why you were so reluctant when we decided to let you go to the Suzuki family." After hearing what Uozuka Saburo said, Daimon Miyuki suddenly understood the strange thing that happened before.

However, this did not allow him to relax.

"Uozuka, are you sure he's safe?"

"Don't worry, he owes me a big favor, and I got in through the formal channels, so it's okay to ask him to do a small favor."

Knowing what Daimon Miyuki was worried about, Uozuka Saburo quickly gave the explanation he had prepared.
