Chapter One: Killing with a Borrowed Knife
The moon melts in the pear blossom courtyard, and there is a gentle breeze in the catkin pond.
In an elegant Japanese-style courtyard at the north corner of Todaiji Temple, the chirping of cicadas brought a touch of summer flavor to the afternoon. Three lazy people were sitting on a stone table under the cherry blossom tree, with some exquisite food in front of them.
.
There is no running water, no electricity, and there are no modern facilities in the airtight Japanese courtyard. The wooden house is so stuffy that people can't breathe. This is the best guest house in Todaiji Temple. This is why Wu Ming dropped hundreds of dollars into the donation box.
10,000 yen in exchange for the VIP treatment.
In addition, Todaiji Temple has arranged a tour guide for Wu Ming, a distinguished guest. She is a Chinese woman in her thirties. Her uncanny face reminds people of the charming "Sister Pomegranate" in the movie. Look
As they ate with her face in front of her, Wu Ming and Zhuge Dachang lost most of their appetites.
Even if he looks ugly, he still doesn’t know how to use his strengths and avoid weaknesses. He dresses in a rustic manner, with makeup on his face that looks like a zombie. He is pale and has a blush like a monkey’s butt. It’s really appalling. Even if he puts on a phoenix robe, he doesn’t look like that.
The queen's woman actually has a familiar name, Chen Yuanyuan.
If this Chen Yuanyuan returned to the late Ming Dynasty, there would never be another story about "a beauty becomes a beauty in anger". With her ugly appearance, anyone who dares to choose her into the palace will definitely have their head chopped off by the emperor.
, maybe even the nine tribes will be killed.
She is such a top-notch woman who can scare away three thousand elite soldiers with her face and kill two thousand three with her legs. Her purpose of coming to the Kingdom of the Sun is actually to make money by filming pornographic movies and become famous. Of course, her yellow beam is...
The dream was quickly shattered, and he ended up working as a handyman in the temple, occasionally working as a tour guide for the Chinese.
The poor play with cars, the rich play with watches, the rich men are fascinated every night, and the poor men can only play with birds occasionally.
As an old birdcage who has watched countless birds, Chen Yuanyuan has a rather vicious look at people. She can tell at a glance that Wu Ming is a noble man. She can smell the breath of the nouveau riche with her eyes closed. Then, she died
Can't wait to leave.
Seeing that the meal was almost done, Wu Ming sighed and gave the eviction order for the third time. He tactfully said: "Miss Chen! Let me say it again, we really don't need a tour guide, so..." After that, he took the bag out of his bag.
He took out a small stack of ten thousand yuan bills and put it on the table.
Chen Yuanyuan looked at the banknotes on the table, with a flash of greed in her eyes. She resisted not reaching out, showing a pitiful look like a lost dog, and whispered: "Mr. Wu! Did I do something wrong? Why did you chase me away?
Go? If I go back now, I will definitely be blamed by the abbot of the temple here."
Wu Ming, who was reluctant to accept the hard work, looked like he had a headache. Zhuge Dachang shook his head and continued in a rough voice: "Honestly! Someone is chasing us now. If you are with us, you may kill us at any time.
Lose your life!"
"Pursuit?" Chen Yuanyuan was stunned at first, then laughed and said, "Mr. Zhuge really loves to joke."
Wu Ming said seriously: "We are not joking. Do you know the Kasuga Group? We are now..."
"The Kasuga Group? Are you talking about the Kasuga Group in Osaka?" Chen Yuanyuan interrupted: "Do you have any business dealings with them?"
Wu Ming asked in surprise: "Do you know the Kasuga Group?"
"Of course!" Chen Yuanyuan said calmly with a hint of respect on her face: "There were earthquakes a few years ago! I survived by eating the relief food distributed by the Kasuga group."
Zhuge Dachang asked curiously: "Relief food? Isn't the Kasuga Group a gangster?"
"The gangs here are more reliable than the government! The gangs in the Guanzhong area are very moral in their work and often provide relief to the victims..." Chen Yuanyuan said with emotion: "I know a few big brothers of the Kasuga Group, and they are all good people!"
When Wu Ming and Zhuge Dachang heard this, they looked at each other and raised their eyebrows tacitly. Is this a blind cat hitting a dead mouse? Unexpectedly, she actually knew someone from the Kasuga group. It seems that she is not useless, she is somewhat good.
Use value.
Wu Ming pretended to be very interested and asked: "You seem to know the Kasuga Group quite well?"
"I have been in Osaka for almost ten years, and I know them somewhat..." Chen Yuanyuan replied casually: "I heard that the Kasuga-gumi headquarters has had some problems recently, and all their industries in Osaka have been shut down."
"Then do you know where their headquarters is?"
Chen Yuanyuan shook her head and said: "The Kasuga group is not like other groups. They act very low-key. It is impossible for outsiders to know where their headquarters is."
Wu Ming couldn't hide his disappointment in his eyes. After being silent for a while, he slowly said: "Don't you know someone from the Kasuga Group? Can you take us to find them?"
Chen Yuanyuan's eyelids twitched, she looked up at Wu Ming, and asked cautiously: "What do you want to do with them?"
Wu Ming said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry! There are only two of us! How can we still trouble them?" Seeing Chen Yuanyuan's face softening, Wu Ming pushed the banknotes on the table in front of her, and pursued the victory: "
As long as you satisfy me, I'm definitely not a stingy person."
Chen Yuanyuan hesitated for a few seconds, quickly put the money away, and said cheerfully: "Okay! I'll take you there!"
Without delay, the three of them tidied up and went out. The two men planned to explore the true identity of the Kasuga group first.
Although Wu Ming lacks patience, he is not reckless. It is better to retreat and build a net than to fish in the deep water. He still understands this simple truth. Everything must be planned and acted upon. These are troubled times, and it is indeed inappropriate to act with great fanfare.
, keeping a low profile in everything is the way to go.
……………………………………………………
Wu Ming was disappointed again. Chen Yuanyuan knew a few so-called big brothers of the Kasuga-gumi, but they were actually just a few peripheral members of the gang. They only worked in the Kasuga-gumi's industry and were not considered official members of the Kasuga-gumi at all.
Sitting in the coffee shop, looking through the floor-to-ceiling glass window at the closed wine opposite, Wu Ming's brows were furrowed. After drinking a cup of coffee, he took out his mobile phone and called Siyan. The line was busy. The line was busy. The third time
Finally connected.
The reason why the line was busy was that Si Yan also happened to call Wu Ming. The call between the two ended quickly. After listening to Si Yan's call, Wu Ming showed a shocked expression. Si Yan had just found out the inside of a Yakuza
News, big news.
Saburo Tamura is dead.
The third young master of the Nara Group died. It is said that he died of poisoning. He died on the day Wu Ming and Zhuge Dachang broke into the hot spring club, and the time of death was not long after they left.
Since the death of Tamura Kazusuke, the previous leader of the Nara-gumi, in a car accident, the Nara-gumi has been leaderless. They have been waiting for someone to come of age, which is to wait for the third young master Tamura Saburo to pass the coming-of-age festival, and then he will take over as leader.
s position.
There are three young masters in the Nara group. Saburo Tamura was born to the second wife. Logically speaking, he cannot be the leader of the group. The main reason is that his background is really scary. His mother is the eldest daughter of the Yamaguchi family, so his grandfather
It is the current General of Yakuza, Kazuo Yamaguchi.
Having said that, the general of Yakuza does not actually have real power. The person who dominates Yakuza is the current sixth generation of the Yamaguchi-gumi, followed by the two presidents of the Inagawa-kai and Sumiyoshi-kai. These three groups divide Yakuza.
The forces of Zha formed a three-legged situation.
Although the Yamaguchi family is no longer as powerful as it was in its heyday, this family is the family that founded the Yamaguchi-gumi after all, and they still have a transcendent status within Yakuza.
Saburo Tamura, who lost his mother at a young age, was very favored. Not only did his grandfather love him very much, but all his uncles and aunts regarded him as their own. Four Eyes also found out the identity of one of his aunts, the wife of the leader of the Sakura group, Natsuhara Yamaguchi.
.
Saburo Tamura was considered the eldest son within Yakuza. Such a figure was openly poisoned to death. This was equivalent to giving Yakuza a slap in the face, spitting on him, and urinating on him.
Wu Ming sent Chen Yuanyuan out to buy cigarettes, and then quietly told Zhuge Dachang the important news. After hearing the news, Zhuge Dachang was also stunned and his chrysanthemum began to tighten.
Looking at Zhuge Dachang who looked blank, Wu Ming coughed twice and said with a wry smile: "No wonder the dead soldiers of the Sakura Group came out to hunt us down. Now many things can be explained. We accidentally killed someone else."
In order to use the borrowed knife to kill people, Yakuza blocked the news and secretly issued a fatwa to kill us."
Zhuge Dachang came to his senses and cursed: "Damn it! We didn't kill the person, why are you chasing us?"
"We took the initiative to come to someone's door and beat him up. He died just after we left. Can we still escape this scapegoat?" Wu Ming sighed and said: "It is said that the Nara group has not buried their young master yet.
Just waiting to capture us and take us back as sacrifices."
Zhuge Dachang said angrily: "Which bastard is plotting against us? Let me know who it is and cut off his life!"
"How would I know!" Wu Ming smiled, shrugged, and joked: "Brother Zhu! Have you ever practiced poison palm or something? When we left, you knocked that kid unconscious."
Zhuge Dachang laughed and scolded: "Poison your sister! If I knew how to poison my palm, I would give you a slap first..." After joking, he couldn't help complaining: "What bad luck! If Lu Bao hadn't asked us to find that short-lived man
Young Master, how could things arise and cause such a big thing?"
"Lu Bao?" Wu Ming repeated. Zhuge Dachang's words seemed to remind him. After thinking about it carefully, he said in a deep voice: "Think about it carefully. When we asked the question that day, he seemed to be the last one.
from."
"It was he who asked us to find Saburo Tamura?"
Lu Bao! This person may be the key, but how to find him now? The two looked at each other, immediately stood up and walked out the door. They planned to go to the Chinese wine shop, which was introduced to them by the wine manager.
Lu Bao walked out to the door, and they grabbed Chen Yuanyuan, who had just walked in, and got into a taxi together. Ten minutes later, they arrived at the Chinese Restaurant. It seemed that a fire had just broken out and was now in ruins.
What a coincidence! But is it still a coincidence that so many coincidences are connected together? Wu Ming and Zhuge Dachang looked depressed. It seemed that they were really being used as weapons. The blame has been laid, and now the two of them are really going to fight.
Chapter completed!
