Hearing the slightly mournful tone of the young man's voice over the phone, Cao Han couldn't help but burst into laughter.
For the sake of its grand plan to gain evolution points, it can only make the "giant tortoise" suffer a bit. As for selling sunscreen and such, it would actually be quite good to sell it in Japan.
The fact that Genjiro could say such a thing proves that he has moved on from the harsh reality of yesterday.
"Let's get down to business. I'm calling to ask you for a favor."
"Speak freely, I will do my best to complete anything that concerns you, Lord Cao!"
Yuan Zhisheng didn't talk about Cao Han's kindness, but he kept it in his heart. As long as the request didn't violate his principles or bottom line, he would do his best to fulfill it.
"It's nothing particularly important. I'll figure out how to deal with Herzog. I'm a little worried that he might do something desperate and harm your sister, so I hope you can protect her in the next few days."
"Fxxk! Beep beep beep beep! Beep beep beep beep!"
Yuan Zhisheng's year of exchange study at Kassel College wasn't entirely fruitless; at least he enriched his vocabulary of swear words.
"Don't worry, Mr. Cao. I'll have Uesugi...her father protect Erii closely."
"With Uesugi Kotsu's protection, I can rest assured."
Cao Han could only say that Yuan Zhisheng's "awkwardness" was just human nature.
If a strange man suddenly comes to your door claiming to be your biological father and wants to acknowledge you, it would be difficult for anyone to fully accept it in a short period of time.
As long as you don't reject Uesugi Kotsu's existence, it's already the best start.
Uesugi Kotsugi was, after all, the former movie king, a super hybrid who once roamed the entire Western countries with impunity. Despite his formidable strength, he repeatedly suffered setbacks against Angers.
Now we should also add Cao Han.
Putting everything else aside, it's more than enough to prevent Herzog from setting his sights on Uesugi Erii.
In fact, after arriving in Japan, Cao Han became very interested in Uesugi Erii, the "Crown Princess" who left behind a lot of regrets in the original work.
With his phone in hand, Cao Han immediately dialed the number saved as "Shude Mai" after hanging up the call with Genjiro.
"Moses Moses~"
Unexpectedly, it was Su Enxi who answered the phone, along with her sweet, cloying voice.
"Did you leave your vocal cords at home? Speak normally."
"Me! Brother Man called to ask what you need?" Su Enxi was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She clenched her little fists, but she still managed to control her tone after thinking that even if all the healers in her group were stacked together, they wouldn't be a match for him.
Where is the female ninja?
Su Enxi knew that the "female ninja" the other party was referring to was Mai Shude, so she quickly explained, "Long-legged is training in the training room right now. She left her phone with me. You can tell me anything. We're like family."
"Don't boyfriends differentiate between each other?"
In all honesty, Cao Han would swear on three fingers that this statement was purely an instinctive reaction of his mouth, and absolutely not something he intended to say.
"You pervert!" Su Enxi's fair face flushed red, revealing her "fujoshi" (female fan of male-male romance) personality in an instant.
As luck would have it, at that very moment, Mai Shude, having finished her workout and washing up, pushed open the door and entered while drying her wet hair with a towel, just in time to see Su Enxi in her daughterly state.
"Oh my gosh~ Is this a cycad blooming?"
Anyone could tell that Mai was teasing her. Su Enxi raised her eyebrows and glared at the former in annoyance, then shoved the familiar-looking phone into Mai's hand.
Confused, Mai looked down... How could she not recognize this phone? She then realized that Su Enxi's phone had been temporarily requisitioned by someone.
"Hey."
"Do you know the location of Gokurakukan, which is located on the outskirts of Osaka?" Cao Han asked, getting straight to the point without continuing the pleasantries.
"I know," Mai Shude replied simply and directly.
"Deliver the 'thing' to the Paradise Pavilion and hand it over to someone. Once it's done, we're even." This was the deal Cao Han had agreed to with them beforehand. "I'll send you the contact information for the person making the handover to your phone later. The code word is that the Imperial Army asked me to pass on a message to you."
The other party will tell you they have a terrible conscience! After the rendezvous is complete, just hand over the item.
Mai Shude's face darkened.
This is such a ridiculous secret code! It must have been devised by someone with their feet, right?
Think about it, when has their prestigious team of personal wet nurses ever been so aggrieved... This change began after they met Cao Han.
From that night, from the outskirts of that seaside city, from the moment they wanted to observe Cao Han, their position was precarious.
"What about time?" Mai Shude took a deep breath to restore her normal tone.
“It will take some time to get from your place to Osaka, so this should be just right.” Cao Han thought that Kazama Ruri had been gone for almost half an hour, so she should be able to get back to Gokurakukan sooner than expected.
"clear."
After secretly arranging everything, Cao Han returned to the presidential suite and immediately settled into a standard "Ge You slouch" on the leather sofa in the living room.
There's no need to be too anxious about constantly monitoring Herzog's precise location.
He and Kazama Ruri had made a promise that once the god's remains were handed over to the king, he would immediately "inform him."
All we need to do is wait for the opportune moment when Herzog is at his most triumphant and arrogant after seizing the White King's power, and then deliver despair to him!
Just at this time.
Fingel, carrying large and small bags, pushed open the door and entered. Upon seeing Cao Han on the sofa, his eyes lit up, and he excitedly exclaimed:
"Boss Cao, you're here! Akihabara truly lives up to its reputation as an otaku mecca; it's so easy to buy things there."
"Looks like you've had a very fruitful trip."
“Absolutely. There’s no need to skimp on the money for the board members when it comes to shopping with public funds.” Fingel knew all too well the astonishing wealth the board members of Kassel College possessed; they could easily buy out the entire Akihabara.
As for the question of whether the executive bureau would refuse to reimburse the purchase of game discs and figurines, Fingel had not considered it.
They don't even look at the amazing feats their team accomplished during their mission in Japan.
Besides, don't forget that the head of the executive department, von Schneider, is Cao Han's teacher. Reimbursement is just a matter of the head of the department saying a word.
"Do billionaires need to get reimbursed for buying things they like?"
Cao Han should have kept quiet. But the moment he mentioned Fingerton, he sighed, his brow furrowed, and said with a hint of regret, "Boss Cao, do you know who the target of the 5 billion yen bounty is?"
"Who?" Cao Hanguang sensed something was off just from Fingel's expression.
"you!"
"Are you kidding me!?"
Chapter 100 Fishing is truly addictive.
Genji Heavy Industries.
This is the new headquarters building of the Snake Clan, which was proposed and built by Tachibana Masamune.
Over 90% of the building is basically completed, and important "industries" of the Snake Clan, such as the Ganryu Research Institute and the Kaguya-hime Computer Room, have already moved in.
If all goes well, the entire headquarters building should be officially put into use by the end of the year.
However, only on his second day as the head of the Snake-Headed Eight Families, Genji had his men move everything from Tachibana Masamune's former office to the new headquarters building of Genji Heavy Industries.
He will also fulfill his responsibilities as the head of the family here.
Perhaps due to the disruption of the weather caused by the awakening of the White King a couple of days ago, the sky over Japan has been overcast for the past two days.
Under this support, the Japanese can hide in the shadows and lick their wounds, while the coastal areas most severely damaged by the disaster are undergoing intensive reconstruction.
The situation within the Snake Clan is also not easy. The numerous underworld areas under their jurisdiction have become chaotic after this battle, and the main clan urgently needs to send people to restrain and suppress them.
Being involved in organized crime is like risking your life for a living; those involved are rarely not rebellious and unruly.
Genjiro, dressed in a long black trench coat, strode into the house with great efficiency, followed closely by Sakura Yabuki. Inside, only Crow was sitting alone at her desk, handling the matters submitted by various families.
Rather than being a patriarch who spends his days approving documents in the office, Yuan Zhisheng prefers to personally handle various problems.
If you look closely, you can see several obvious cuts made by a sharp weapon on the back of his black trench coat.
This is what he left behind after single-handedly taking on an entire gang of over a hundred people.
Without releasing the power of words or using any "knife," this is inevitable.
"Crow, have you found out anything from the Ghost Clan?"
"Yes, according to the investigation, all of the Oni Clan's forces, except for a small portion that remained at their Osaka headquarters, were sent to the coast to search for something."
"Remains of a god?"
"I think so too!"
Genjiro's first thought was of what Cao Han had said at the Uesugi residence, which naturally led him to the question of the king's motives for doing so.
After taking the position of patriarch, Genjiro did not hide anything from his retainers and gave a brief account of what had happened that day.
Therefore, it's not surprising that the crow's strategist could come up with this idea.
The crow paused for a moment, opened the first drawer on its right, took out a document, handed it to Yuan Zhisheng, and said, "Master, please take a look at this document."
"From yesterday to now, the Metropolitan Police Department has uncovered 15 cases of illegal entry, during which 11 armed conflicts occurred, resulting in injuries and deaths of several public officials."
Meanwhile, more than ten dangerous individuals who were wanted by Interpol on international flights were apprehended. I have instructed all families to be vigilant and take precautions against these foreign nationals entering the country.
"What is the reason for this influx of people into Japan?" Genji asked.
"Because of the 5 billion yen bounty!" Crow gave the answer, and before Genji could ask any further questions, he continued, "According to the investigation by the Ganryu Research Institute, which used Princess Kaguya to hack into the dark web, they discovered that this was all done by our mortal enemy, King Sho."
The moment I discovered this bounty, I used Kaguya's power to lock down the IP address of the person behind the dark web and issued a real-name warning.
Someone worthy of a bounty of 5 billion yen offered by the king!?
Unsurprisingly, only the name "Cao Han" came to mind when Yuan Zhisheng thought that it was worth doing this to Cao Han, who had severed the arm of the mastermind Herzog and held the remains of the god that the mastermind wanted most.
"You did very well!"
Genjiro did not criticize the crow's overstepping of authority; on the contrary, he praised it highly, which is one of the main reasons why he chose to put the crow in this position.
Intelligence is merely a basic requirement for being a strategist; courage and adaptability are the keys to success!
To everyone's surprise, the crow shook its head and said with regret, "Unfortunately, we discovered the bounty too late. Before that, a large number of bounty hunters had already seen this astronomical bounty and accepted the mission."
Almost every famous bounty hunter in the world knows that there's a walking 'five billion' in this city!
Yuan Zhisheng's face darkened as he began to realize the thorniness of the problem.
There's a saying: "Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake." Another way to put it is, "How can someone without three points dare to join the Liangshan bandits?"
