Chapter 163 161. Memories of the Kyoto Succubus (56): Saotome goes to the Hongmen Banquet alone
When Saotome Hazuki woke up, her body, already weakened by being whipped several times by Watanabe Toru, was even more exhausted, but her spirit was extremely excited.
Watanabe Toru was not around, and a thick black chain suddenly pressed down on his body. When he looked up, he saw that the bookshelf was broken and collapsed, and the books were scattered all over the floor. Even several CDs that Watanabe treasured were lying on the ground, reflecting cold light.
At the end of the sight, the door of the apartment was closed and there was a big hole in the glass window next to it.
Considering how she had fallen into a deep sleep for no apparent reason, how could Hazuki Saotome, who came from a yakuza organization and an armed violence organization, not understand?
It was obvious that someone had drugged her and Watanabe Toru in order to kidnap Watanabe.
She had done the same thing to Toru Watanabe before!
However, it seems that the other party may have wrong information. They didn't know that Watanabe Toru's physical fitness was far superior to that of ordinary people. He didn't increase the dosage like she did, which resulted in Watanabe's failure to stun him, allowing him to escape...
Miss Saotome turned over in bed and crawled forward to get her cell phone, looking very embarrassed.
Saotome Hazuki's fox eyes were filled with coldness. Who was so bold as to lay hands on her?!
That old woman, Mizunotsuki Chihaya? Or did the other members of Mizunotsuki's family dislike her and wanted to vent their anger?
No matter who it was, Saotome, who was crawling forward, had already thought of a hundred ways to execute the person who did it...
She checked the time and realized that more than 40 minutes had passed since she last checked her phone, and the caller ID showed more than a dozen missed calls.
Another call came in, and Saotome Hazuki answered the call. After confirming that it was indeed the eldest lady, the other party was obviously relieved and briefly explained the situation to her.
The female bodyguards who were protecting her closely outside the apartment and the members of the [Crescent Moon Group] who usually monitored Watanabe Toru have temporarily lost contact. As soon as they could not contact Saotome Hazuki, the [Crescent Moon Group] sent people to protect her.
The female member of the [New Moon Group] who came with Saotome Hazuki came into the apartment, and after having her leg and back muscles massaged, she finally regained some mobility and also got more detailed information.
Her female bodyguards and members of the Crescent Moon Group were all fine, they were just unconscious. Now they have all woken up, and their limbs are also a little weak.
The time seemed to be turned back to half a month ago, and only Watanabe Toru disappeared into the world. The only difference was that unlike the last time, Watanabe Toru might have been kidnapped tonight, or he might be the one who got kidnapped.
"Go track down Watanabe's whereabouts. Just like last time, we have to dig deep to find him!"
In order to avoid making the same mistake as that night, the Crescent Moon Group first turned the apartment building and its surrounding area upside down, and then focused their attention on other places.
One day and two nights passed, and there was no news of Toru Watanabe.
Saotome felt that there was something wrong with her thinking. She could not just passively catch Watanabe Toru and investigate him. Instead, she had to find out who was interested in Watanabe Toru and kidnapped him?
[Hidaka Shrine] is still hiding in her own little piece of land without moving an inch. The old woman Mizunotsuki was also caught by the Mizunotsuki family and put in solitary confinement. No matter how you look at it, it was the Mizunotsuki family who was behind it!
Without saying anything, Hazuki Saotome ordered people to closely monitor the every move of the main members of the Mizunotsuki family and all their activities in the past three days...
You don't know until you check. Before the Crescent Moon Group can get any deeper, Saotome discovers that the Mizunotsuki family has deceived outsiders. They didn't bring Mizunotsuki Chihaya back at all, but let her wander outside!
There is no time to blame the Mizunotsuki family for their deception. Now the truth is clear: it was all done by Mizunotsuki Chihaya!
And focusing the investigation on Chihaya Mizunoe would undoubtedly be much more efficient. Saotome Hazuki learned about her recent whereabouts.
We drove all the way from Kyoto in the heavy rain to Hidaka Shrine, but failed and were driven down the mountain.
After wandering around [Amenakamachi] for an hour, he drove straight to the [Tsukimisato Group] headquarters building in Kyoto and has not been seen since then...
Moon-viewing!
With a "whoosh", Saotome Hazuki sat up straight.
She couldn't help but take it seriously. Who did the old woman meet at the [Tsukimisato Foundation]? If she had met a man, it would have been fine. The key point was that the current president of the foundation, Tsukimisato Saki, was also a great beauty!
Even if Tsukimi Rin Saki declares to the outside world that she is not interested in men, Saotome Hazuki will not believe it.
Which one of her, as well as Hidaka Mari, and the old woman Mizunotsuki, didn't say the same?
What if I ended up meeting Toru Watanabe?
The most crucial and important point is that if she faces Tsukimi, Saotome is not sure that she can torture her like she did to the old woman Mizunotsuki... as if it were like breathing!
The mysterious "Shadow Warrior" not only affects the economic lifeline of the entire island nation, but also has a slight impact on international finance. It is a giant consortium that all countries must treat with courtesy. Just calling it the head of the three major families in Kyoto is an insult...
Facing such a huge monster, Saotome Hazuki didn't even have the courage or the desire to do anything.
But she was unwilling to just hand over Watanabe Toru to him, so she had no choice but to take a risky move and let the members of the Crescent Moon Group secretly attack the Tsukimi Group in her name...
[Tsukimisato Group] On the top floor of the headquarters building, in the private tea room, Tsukimisato Saki leisurely enjoys Mizunozuki Chihaya's sencha.
"Although Miss Chihaya did not return to the Mizunotsuki family until she was ten years old, I can tell from the taste of this sencha that it is the taste of a legitimate daughter of the Mizunotsuki family."
From time to time, he would bring up past events that made Mizunotsuki feel bad, but the blonde mixed-race beauty didn't dare to say much, but just smiled and nodded in agreement.
The female secretary walked in and handed over a document. Tsukimi Rizaki took it and flipped through it casually. The light in her eyes became brighter and brighter.
OK! Very good!
The report in the file is a preliminary analysis of Watanabe Toru's physical functions. The analysis points out that Watanabe Toru's fatigue resistance, lactic acid tolerance and physical recovery rate are far beyond the reach of professional adult athletes, and even far exceed those of children whose anaerobic systems have not yet fully developed.
Because children are not fully developed, their body functions are entirely supported by the aerobic system. Unlike adults, they do not feel their limits and need to rest after just a few steps or a little exercise. Children are lively and active, playing from morning till night without any rest. However, once they exceed the limit, it is similar to a CPU overload and they will get sick immediately.
But Watanabe Toru has no such limitation at all. His body is like a machine that never tires. According to the normal consumption of ordinary people, the strength and energy he consumes is not as fast as his recovery speed... After going through many extreme tests, he still hasn't found a balance point...
It's just like the genetically modified warriors in Western science fiction movies. The only difference from superheroes is that they don't have any special or large-scale "super powers"...
Theoretically, there is great potential in researching and manufacturing some kind of genetic reagent or serum based on his body!
How could this not make Tsukimi Ryosaki applaud? ?
After closing the document, Tsukimi waved her hand to let the female secretaries leave. After tasting another sip of Mizunotsuki's exquisite tea, the woman nodded slightly and said, "Ms. Chihaya, please stay by my side from now on." Without saying much, Tsukimi gave her time to think about it.
Chihaya Mizunotsuki acted extremely terrified and quickly got down from her seat to show her loyalty.
She has taken a firm step forward. From now on, even if the Mizunotsuki family dares to do anything to her, they will have to consider whether they are important enough. Even the engagement that makes her extremely disgusted is like a temporary seal of the "bird in a cage" at this moment.
Mizunotsuki Chihaya once again deeply felt the pleasure brought by power and status. If she also had such...
As for the performance and reaction of the mixed-race woman, Tsukimi Rizaki didn't care at all. In her eyes, it was just like promoting a woman to be her secretary.
She was paying attention to the frequent actions of the [New Moon Group] from last night until now. Every move she made was like a stripper dancing in front of her while playing the explosive Peninsula girl group song.
He really did everything to attract my attention... He really put in a lot of effort.
It is not difficult for Tsukimi Rizaki to guess that all this was instructed by the eldest lady of the Crescent Moon Group. It is said that she is so arrogant that she looks down on everyone.
Miss Chihaya Mizunotsuki, who was running around like a stray dog, was a living proof of this. She really wanted to get rid of Saotome as soon as possible!
However, this lawless girl only cautiously probed her and begged for a chance to have a peaceful conversation, which was quite funny in a way and made Tsukimi Rizaki extremely happy.
Tsukimi Rika did not refuse and immediately extended an invitation, allowing them to talk freely in her tea room at this time tomorrow.
At this Hongmen Banquet, President Tsukimi wants to see if Saotome has the courage to come...
◆
Saotome Hazuki knew that this was a Hongmen Banquet, but she still went there alone without hesitation.
For Toru Watanabe, and for herself.
Saotome Hazuki could not imagine how Watanabe Toru would be treated if he fell into the "Tsukimisato Group". If he was just exploited by the group's president Tsukimisato, who was not interested in men, and the old woman Mizunotsuki, that would probably be considered good.
She knew about Toru Watanabe's special situation, whose physical fitness far exceeded that of ordinary people. As a key member of one of the three major companies in Kyoto, she happened to know that there was a secret project in the biopharmaceutical technology company under the Tsukimi Group that was quite interested in various super humans!
If Toru Watanabe was taken to a laboratory for research, or even sliced into pieces...
Don’t do that kind of thing! !
So even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, Saotome Hazuki will go for it!
However, on the morning of that day, Saotome did not forget to ask Watanabe for leave in her name.
Tsukimi was quite impressed by Saotome's solo performance, while Mizunotsuki, who was sitting nearby serving tea, almost punched her to the ground when she saw that the guest she was entertaining was actually the Saotome Hazuki, whom she had been thinking about day and night and wanted to eat alive.
Mizunotsuki Chihaya endured it for the time being, with a grim look on her face.
Saotome naturally noticed the fierce look in Teacher Mizunotsuki's eyes for a short while. When she thought that it was she who lured Tsukimiri here, the urge to kill her surged more than ever!
She also pretended not to see Mizunotsuki's slightly distorted and ugly face, and after politely exchanging words with President Tsukimisato, she enjoyed Mizunotsuki's sencha tea-making skills while chatting about the project cooperation and exchanges between the [New Moon Group] and the [Tsukimisato Foundation]...
After a while, when she felt the time was right, Saotome used Mizunotsuki's presence to bring up an additional topic: "I didn't expect to see you here with President Tsukimi. It's really unexpected..."
"Teacher, I have to thank Saotome-san. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met my benefactor."
What a good flatterer! The disgusted Saotome said, "It's good that the teacher is fine. I was worried that the Mizunotsuki family would do something bad to the teacher without knowing the truth. It's true... They are spreading the news that the teacher was put in solitary confinement.
"I'm afraid the teacher will be upset, that would be bad~"
"Saotome-san is overthinking. How could the teacher be in trouble?" Mizunotsuki directly avoided talking about the "teacher-student scandal" and said in a veiled way, "The one who should be in trouble should be someone else, right?"
"Haha, who is the teacher referring to? I'm very curious..."
"You know who I'm talking about, Saotome-san." Chihaya Mizunotsuki brewed tea nonchalantly, her manner indescribably graceful.
Seeing the relaxed look of the mixed-race beauty, Saotome Hazuki was so angry that she almost crushed the teacup in her hand.
As expected, he was a guy who only treated Watanabe Toru as a plaything, with the attitude of exploiting him for a day and enjoying himself for a day, and he didn't care about the pain he was currently suffering...
That's for lab research! Not for appendectomy or something like that!!
If he is not careful, it can really cost him his life!!!
"What's wrong with Saotome-san? Why are you making such a cute expression?"
Mizunotsuki asked knowingly, and glanced at her current master with her turquoise eyes. Seeing that Tsukimiri looked indifferent, she provoked Saotome with words again.
The mixed-race woman has now realized that it seems that Saotome Hazuki is not just lusting after Watanabe Toru's body, but she has probably already fallen deeply in love with him!
Whether men or women, no one should fall in love, otherwise it will only bring temporary or continuous endless pain.
Chihaya Mizunoe had other ideas in her mind about how to take revenge on Hazuki Saotome.
Before killing her, let's torture her first...
Slightly closing her eyes to calm her restless heart, and after adjusting her breathing, Saotome Hazuki simply ignored the old woman and spoke directly to Tsukimi Sasaki:
"At this point... I will no longer be confused by President Tsukimi.
"Watanabe Toru...my classmate and boyfriend...Is he here with you?"
