Chapter 393: Doing It Myself

"What?! What did you say?!"

Inside the Japanese-style wooden building, Yamamoto Tomoya was roaring at his phone, "How are you people doing your jobs? To actually do something so stupid! Trash, you are simply trash!"

"What do you mean 'what should we do'?! You stay right there, I am coming over now. Before I arrive, you must serve the person well; there cannot be any more screw-ups!"

Yamamoto Tomoya threw the phone aside, sat down, and took a few deep breaths before he calmed down.

Saito Hiroki watched Yamamoto Tomoya silently, curious as to what kind of matter could make Yamamoto Tomoya, who was always skilled at emotional management, lose his composure.

"Leader Yamamoto, what happened?" Saito Hiroki guessed, "Could it be that the talks didn't go smoothly? But that was to be expected, wasn't it?"

"It was more than just not smooth!"

Yamamoto Tomoya gulped down some tea and said angrily, "Those two idiots, Watanabe and Izumaru, actually poisoned Chen Che. Poisoning him is one thing, but they got caught red-handed, and now both sides have come to blows... Chen Che is at the Heavenly Master Realm, so the result is obvious. Forget about those two idiots; even Gongben, who was lying in ambush five hundred meters outside the hotel, was almost blinded!"

Saito Hiroki's drooping eyelids snapped open, his face full of astonishment and shock: "It seems we still underestimated this young man. He is not just a martial artist with only brute force; his brain is also sharper than the average person's."

"More than just sharp?!"

Yamamoto Tomoya rolled up his sleeves in agitation, "Since he arrived here, two plans targeting him have failed, and my people have ended up in a more wretched state each time!

The most hateful thing is that those two idiots, Izumaru and Watanabe, failed to destroy the evidence in time, and now that cup of poisoned coffee is in Chen Che's hands... Because of this, although it won't have a huge impact on us, the plan to annex the Qingyuan Group has gained another obstacle and variable. If things go wrong, Chen Che might even stop investigating the Takiji Group because of this, and my original plan of action will fall through!"

"It was us who thought wrong from the beginning. We thought that since he was going to die in the plan anyway, we didn't consider much regarding the reception and our attitude, letting the people below act recklessly. Now it seems Chen Che has very likely already become suspicious."

Saito Hiroki said.

"So I must rush over now to appease Chen Che. I don't expect to make him lower his guard, but at least I must not let the plan deviate from its track... As long as he continues to investigate the Takiji Group, our plan can be considered back on track."

Yamamoto Tomoya stood up, slid open the door, and strode away.

Saito Hiroki remained sitting at the tea table, his fingers gently rubbing the slip of paper in his palm, muttering to himself: "No wonder... a person even the Cult Leader wants to kill is indeed very interesting. If you were allowed to grow, that would truly be terrifying."

Saito Hiroki placed the paper on the table, curled two fingers, and tapped the table.

"Swish!"

The room's sliding door opened, and three people dressed as black-clad ninjas knelt at the entrance.

"The plan has been moved up. To be safe, you three act now. Follow Chen Che twenty-four hours a day and wait for my orders."

Saito Hiroki added: "According to intelligence, Chen Che is an Innate Heavenly Master. In terms of individual strength, only Naoto can contend with him. Therefore, once you make a move, to ensure nothing goes wrong, you three are not allowed to hold back. Attack together and use Ninjutsu with all your might."

The three said in unison: "Understood!"

………

When Yamamoto Tomoya arrived at the top-floor suite of the hotel, Chen Che was sitting in a chair, picking at his fingers in boredom. Ji Xuan stood beside Chen Che, looking indifferent while holding that cup of cold poisoned coffee.

Watanabe Takumi was kneeling on both knees, his hands covering his neck. The puncture wound from the chopsticks was bleeding incessantly, and he had been relying on True Qi to alleviate the pain and stop the bleeding, but he dared not stand up.

The wounds on Izumaru Naomi's shoulder and leg were also wrapped in True Qi to prevent excessive blood loss, but waves of pain kept coming, causing her to break out in a cold sweat each time.

Seeing Yamamoto Tomoya arrive, the two of them looked as if they had seen a savior and quickly leaned toward him, hoping the leader would uphold justice for them.

Unexpectedly, Yamamoto Tomoya slapped Izumaru Naomi across the face. With a *slap*, Izumaru Naomi spun three hundred and sixty degrees and fell to the ground, completely stunned.

Before Watanabe Takumi could react, he also received a kick.

Yamamoto Tomoya kicked Watanabe Takumi in the lower abdomen. Watanabe Takumi let out a "wah" and spat out a mouthful of sour liquid, collapsing back onto the ground.

"Two pieces of trash! What did I tell you? And how did you take care of the guest?! You buckets of rice, you trash, damn you!"

Yamamoto Tomoya cursed loudly, completely ignoring the two wretched figures, and walked straight toward Chen Che.

"Special Commissioner Chen, hello. I am Yamamoto Tomoya, leader of the Shadow Organization."

Yamamoto Tomoya bowed slightly, his attitude respectful, "I had official business and did not manage to come here in time to hold talks with you. It is my dereliction of duty, and I apologize to you!

But please believe that what those two did was not under my instruction. My own wish is to be able to successfully clear up the misunderstanding and have President Lin return to Xia as soon as possible."

"I deeply apologize for the impact their actions have had on you and on the relationship between our two countries. Please rest assured, I will definitely give you a perfect explanation for tonight's events!"

Yamamoto Tomoya said a lot in one breath. Chen Che watched him silently from beginning to end, without interjecting a single word.

After Yamamoto Tomoya finished speaking, he looked at Izumaru Naomi and Watanabe Takumi and roared sternly: "What are you two doing? Why haven't you come to apologize to Special Commissioner Chen yet!"

Izumaru Naomi and Watanabe Takumi scrambled to get up, came before Chen Che, and bowed deeply, keeping their heads low until they heard a response.

Chen Che looked at Yamamoto Tomoya and smiled: "Leader Yamamoto handles things thoroughly; what else should I say... Oh, that's right, there is still one more person in the building across the street."

"Special Commissioner, please rest assured, I will definitely punish those three severely; none of them will get away!" Yamamoto Tomoya promised.

Chen Che smiled without smiling, took the poisoned coffee from Ji Xuan's hand, and said: "Then please prove it to me, Leader Yamamoto."

Yamamoto Tomoya's brow twitched slightly. Without a moment's hesitation, he took the poisoned coffee, handed it to Izumaru Naomi and Watanabe Takumi, and ordered: "Drink it!"

Izumaru Naomi and Watanabe Takumi were shocked, looking at the cup of coffee with terror on their faces.

They knew better than anyone what was inside and what effects it had. Even if they didn't die from drinking it, they would be ruined. Moreover, given the harsh laws of Shadow, even if they could stay, they would no longer be able to hold important positions.

But in the current situation, if they didn't drink it, Yamamoto Tomoya could tear them apart on the spot.

Save their lives first!

Izumaru Naomi steeled her heart, took the poisoned coffee first, drank a large mouthful, and then passed it to Watanabe.

Watanabe Takumi looked troubled, but after meeting Yamamoto Tomoya's fierce gaze, he also steeled his heart and took a drink.

The drug took effect quickly. In an instant, intense heat radiated from the two, their cheeks turning as red as fire, while their bodies grew increasingly limp. On their faces, they would giggle one moment, cry bitterly the next, then shout that they were cold, then scream that they were hot, then feel pain, then itch………

Five minutes later, the two who had been raving finally quieted down, all of them collapsing on the floor, eyes closed and motionless.

"This drug is indeed miraculous. Besides being able to dissipate a person's True Qi, it can also stimulate the nerves and produce the effect of being drunk."

Chen Che looked at Yamamoto Tomoya, "The Shadow Organization is truly worthy of its reputation."

Yamamoto Tomoya apologized with a smile: "I've let the Special Commissioner see a joke. It's just useless research, not worth mentioning."

Chen Che looked at the empty coffee cup and said: "Whether it's worth mentioning is not important, but now that the coffee is gone, did Leader Yamamoto forget something?"

How could Yamamoto Tomoya not understand what Chen Che meant? He immediately said: "I will call the person over right now and let the Special Commissioner deal with them."

"No need, I'll do it myself."

As the words fell, Chen Che curled his five fingers into a claw, a strong suction force rotating in his palm, and a fork that had fallen to the ground flew into his hand.

Under Yamamoto Tomoya's puzzled gaze, Chen Che swung his long arm.

The dinner fork shot out straight, piercing through the floor-to-ceiling window and flying directly toward the roof of the building opposite.

Gongben, hiding beneath the parapet, seemed to sense something and slightly poked his head out to check; the dinner fork hit the bullseye, piercing through his skull and leaving a brilliant flower of blood in the air.
