Chapter 225: Didn't you tell them that Grandpa is the leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi?

~15 min read 2,831 words

Unsurprisingly, Naoki Nagayama once again became one of the hot topics in the entertainment circle recently.

How can a star become famous? Naturally, it is to constantly brush the sense of existence in front of the public! And what kind of way to brush the sense of existence has the highest cost-effectiveness? The answer is

Regardless of whether it is true or not, the public has a gossiping nature and will go to inquire and spread it.

In short, Naoki Nagayama's scandal heated up once again, and when a certain newspaper broke the news that he was the author of the recently famous novels "Love Letter" and "Garden of Summer," the heat of the incident rose to another level, and more and more content was dug up afterward.

Based on the handsome photos that were exposed, some people have already pinned the title of "talented man" on Naoki Nagayama.

Japanese society is very tolerant of talented men; at the same time, the scandal turned into a romantic anecdote.

"I say, Naoki-san, the romantic talented man, why are you wearing a mask, sunglasses, and everything else in such hot weather?"

Just as he arrived at the studio, Shuichi Yin Tang teased him without any hesitation.

And the others in the studio also revealed strange smiles.

Because yesterday, during a promotional event for "Hachiko Monogatari" in Tokyo, all the reporters threw their questions at Naoki Nagayama, who was originally just there to make up the numbers.

There was even a reporter who asked in public: "As a romantic talented man, Mr. Naoki, do you view your relationships with other celebrities as a way to experience life?"

"......."

Naoki Nagayama couldn't answer for a moment, and the scene was very awkward for a while.

But in the newspaper the next day, there appeared: "Romantic talented man Naoki Nagayama tacitly admits that his relationships with other celebrities are just to experience life!"

"Shuichi-san, I might not be able to participate in the subsequent promotional activities." Naoki Nagayama took off his disguise and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Why? Isn't the heat a good thing~" Shuichi Yin Tang asked strangely, "It also takes into account the promotion of the movie."

"But the reporters have shifted their focus from the movie to my lace news~"

Naoki Nagayama was a bit speechless, "Clearly, the previous few times it just got lively for a few days and then died down; I don't know why it's getting hotter and hotter this time."

"Hahaha, this is quantitative change becoming qualitative change!" Shuichi Yin Tang laughed.

And that Ren Bo Qingshui sent over by the Kadokawa faction smiled and analyzed it from a more professional perspective:

"Naoki-san, your scandal this time has three major explosive points."

"Eh? There are actually three?"

"Haha, first, you and Kanako Higuchi have already been exposed several times, which has already laid the groundwork; second, Tanaka Yuko and Nana Okada, who are involved in the scandal, one is a popular actress and the other is a past national idol, both have large fan bases; third, Naoki-san's triple identity as a best-selling author, well-known composer, and film star, each one makes people have the desire to explore."

Hmm, it sounds like that's the case.

This newcomer, Ren Bo Qingshui, has a kind personality and is capable, and has already gotten along very well with the people at Tree Friend Films. Plus, his dedication to the promotion of the new movie has almost dissolved the sense of estrangement everyone had because he was parachuted in by Kadokawa.

Sure enough, people with squinty eyes are all formidable guys!

"Hahaha, it looks like the discussion about me will continue for a while. I need to keep a low profile during this time~"

Ren Bo Qingshui asked curiously: "Shouldn't Naoki-san be striking while the iron is hot? This is a rare opportunity in the entertainment industry."

Yes, how many ordinary people have become top-tier in the entertainment industry like a rocket because of sudden popularity, then participating in various program announcements, their popularity rising again, and being able to obtain more resources... under such a positive cycle.

However, this is not Naoki Nagayama's pursuit.

"Qingshui-san, actually for me, the movie making money is the point. I personally don't have any obsession with becoming a star." Naoki Nagayama said to Ren Bo Qingshui.

"Haha, Qingshui-san, it is indeed like that." Shuichi Yin Tang added from the side, "Naoki-san doesn't want to participate in entertainment industry announcements at all."

"So that's how it is? Haha, Naoki-san is really a special person." Ren Bo Qingshui started his signature smiling expression again.

"In any case, Shuichi-san, for the subsequent promotion, I'll leave it to you guys."

"Hai, hai, got it, got it~" Shuichi Yin Tang waved his hand.

Naoki Nagayama, who returned to Shanyingyuan, sighed on the sofa.

Because of this incident, even going out to eat might lead to being recognized; it's super troublesome.

Blowing the cool air from the air conditioner, Naoki Nagayama scratched Eitaro's chin.

"Eitaro, it looks like we are going to go abroad to avoid the limelight!"

"Wang Wang~"

"You haven't been to Hawaii either, right? How about I take you with me this time? Wait, it seems like taking a pet abroad is very troublesome... physical examination, serum, quarantine, and a whole bunch of things, and little doggies might also get stressed from the change in environment..."

"Wang Wang Wang!"

"Sure enough, let's forget it! I'll just send you back to my hometown this time!"

"Wang~"

"It just so happens that Hezi is coming tomorrow, so when she goes back, she can take you back together."

"Wang Wang Wang?!"

Hearing a familiar name, Eitaro became restless.

The news of Hezi coming had been called in two days ago. Of course, it was after seeing Naoki Nagayama's scandal that she hurriedly called to inquire. How could the reports in the newspaper be as accurate as asking the person involved directly?

After not getting the information she wanted, Naoki Hezi unilaterally notified her brother that she would bring her best friend to Tokyo the day after tomorrow morning and demanded that he must pick them up on time!

"Eitaro, Hezi is arriving in Tokyo tomorrow morning!"

Naoki Nagayama picked up the 20-plus-pound dog, looking at his slightly aggrieved eyes.

"Don't be afraid of her! She doesn't dare to do anything!"

"Ying ying ying... ying ying ying..."

The weather has entered midsummer, the scorching sunlight has curled the edges of the plane tree leaves on both sides of the street, and the weeds in the corners of the walls have withered and lost their spirit.

After the sprinkler truck passed by, the water mist stirred up refracted a small rainbow in the sunlight, and then disappeared quickly after the water vapor evaporated.

On the street near Jimbocho Station, the cicadas hidden between the tree trunks chirped almost in one piece, making people feel even more irritable.

Estimating the time, Naoki Nagayama walked directly from Shanyingyuan to the subway station entrance in Jimbocho. In a place where public transportation in Tokyo is so convenient, it takes less than 10 minutes to walk here. If you drive, the time to find a parking space is more than that.

He bought an ice cream at a convenience store at the station entrance.

Then he leaned against the convenience store's air conditioning, waiting for his sister to come out of the subway station.

Actually, to be honest, Naoki Hezi had already been to Shanyingyuan, and logically, he could have walked over himself.

But as for this brother, if he really dared to stay in the air-conditioned room at home and wait for his sister to come to the door, then what might be waiting for him afterward would be the double criticism from his sister and mother!

When his ice cream was almost finished, Naoki Nagayama finally saw two young and beautiful girls coming out of the subway. I don't know why there were two guys who looked like hooligans pestering them.

"Eh? There's such a thing?"

Naoki Nagayama took the popsicles prepared for Hezi and Xiaona, and hurried over.

After arriving, he realized that these two delinquents were only of high school age, their school uniforms were worn loosely, they were standing crookedly, just silly boys who learned to be bad... and, they were very short...

"Little sister, is this your first time in Tokyo? Where do you go to school?"

"Let's be friends! Big brother can take you out to play~"

Naoki Hezi originally thought about leaving the station, but the two guys were blocking her and Xiaona-chan's way with grinning faces, and she was a little scared. But when she saw a figure a head taller than them suddenly appear behind the two, her courage suddenly grew.

Naoki Nagayama stood behind the two for a while, and what he heard were all things like "Little sister, don't be so heartless...", "Little sister is so cute", "We have no malice, just want to make friends". He felt very boring; there wasn't even the tongue-clicking sound that is the trademark of the Yakuza...

"Do the little hooligans nowadays only know how to say these two sentences?"

The voice that suddenly came to their ears startled the two young men, and they retreated a few steps before calming down.

One of them shouted: "What do you want, you guy!" Then a punch came over...

"So rude!"

Naoki Nagayama grabbed his arm, took advantage of the momentum to destroy his balance, and made him fall to the ground. Then when the other person rushed over, he swept him to the ground with one kick, and the two made painful sounds.

He said in a lonely and invincible tone: "Sigh... you don't even know how to fight. You're so young, studying hard is the right path!"

Then he handed the popsicles in his hand to Hezi and Xiaona-chan: "Hezi, Xiaona-chan, how did you provoke these two guys?"

"Who knows, as soon as we got off the subway, these two guys followed us..." Hezi stuffed the popsicle into her mouth and let out a satisfied sigh, "So cold~"

It looked like it was a spur-of-the-moment thing. Naoki Nagayama looked at Hezi and Xiaona-chan's attire again:

Naoki Nagayama is already so handsome, and Hezi, who shares the same bloodline, naturally has a very good foundation. This time Hezi wore the green floral dress she bought in Tokyo before, with a novel style and bright colors, plus the fashionable Seiko hairstyle, which was very eye-catching;

And Xiaona-chan, as a best friend, with her upright facial features, round face, paired with a cool T-shirt and a midi skirt, had a youthful and beautiful girl aura.

"Sigh... Hezi-chan and Xiaona-chan have both grown up~ They have reached the age of 'attracting bees and butterflies'~" Naoki Nagayama pretended to sigh, but the words he said made both Hezi and Xiaona blush.

"Baka Nii-chan, what nonsense are you talking about!" Hezi kicked Naoki Nagayama fiercely, and Xiaona-chan also said from the side: "Naoki Nii-chan is too bad!"

The three of them talked easily, completely ignoring the two people lying on the ground.

And the guy who seemed to be the leader immediately clamored: "You guy are dead! Dare to hit us! Wait until our boss comes to see you kneeling and begging for mercy!"

Naoki Nagayama was a little curious: "Your boss? Could it be Yakuza? What gang is it?"

That person became even more arrogant when he heard this: "Scared, right? Let me tell you, our boss is a member of the Yamaguchi-gumi!"

Naoki Nagayama found it funny after hearing this. If it were another organization, it might be a little troublesome, but the Yamaguchi-gumi...

He turned his head to look at Hezi: "Hezi, didn't you tell them that Grandpa is a boss of the Yamaguchi-gumi?"

"Eh? Grandpa is only a boss in Shizuoka, right? Does he have influence in Tokyo too?"

"Baka, the Yamaguchi-gumi is a national organization... the ranks are universal!"

When the two little hooligans heard this, they stopped shouting immediately. Their faces showed an incredible expression, which then quickly turned into fear. Today they kicked an iron plate... It turned out to be the grandson of a boss. No wonder his skills were so good!

Seeing that the two seemed to have figured it out, Naoki Nagayama smiled and said to the two: "It looks like you seem to have figured out the situation... Then, what do you plan to do?!"

The two guys looked at each other, immediately stood up, and bowed 90 degrees: "Sumimasen! Today we offended the family of the boss unintentionally! Please forgive us!"

For a moment, everyone at the station exit looked over. Fortunately, it wasn't peak time...

Hezi pulled Naoki Nagayama's arm, wanting to settle the matter, but Naoki Nagayama didn't let it go: "Hmm, for such a mistake, the fingers of you two must be cut off..."

Eh?!

!

The four people nearby (the hooligans and Hezi and Xiaona) were all surprised. Are they going to cut off their fingers just like this? Cut them right here? Will it be too painful? Will they bleed to death?

Both hooligans were already about to cry. They were clearly just delinquents, and they hadn't even officially joined the Yamaguchi-gumi yet, and they were going to have their fingers cut off?

Naoki Nagayama continued: "However, I am not a devil after all, so let's forget about cutting off fingers."

"Hontou ni arigato!" x2

"But mistakes cannot go unpunished. You two carry the two bags for me! Follow me!"

"Hai!" x2

He had long seen the big bags Hezi brought. Needless to say, besides clothes, there must be local specialties sent from home. It was all the heavy love of their parents!

However, at this time, the trolley suitcase had not been invented, and things were carried by hand. Just now, Hezi and Xiaona had to work together to barely lift them out of the subway station.

It's not that Naoki Nagayama couldn't carry them, but in such hot weather, carrying a big bag in the sun for ten minutes is also hard work, okay.

Such a scene appeared on the streets of Chiyoda: three handsome and good-looking young men and women walking leisurely in front eating popsicles, and two little brothers dressed like hooligans following behind carrying luggage, sweating profusely.

This made passersby look over, and even saw the probing eyes of patrol police.

However, there didn't seem to be any forced situation, and others didn't meddle.

"Alright, we're here!"

The group walked to the entrance of Shanyingyuan, and Naoki Nagayama called for the two to stop and let them put down the big bags.

"What are your names?"

"Big brother, my name is Bunichi Imamura." "I am Hokuto Nakazawa."

Naoki Nagayama took out 1,000 yen and handed it to the two.

"You worked hard today, but don't casually hit on strange little girls next time, you know? Such behavior will embarrass the Yamaguchi-gumi!"

"Hai, sumimasen!" Bowing x2. This time the apology sounded much more sincere.

A slap and a sweet date, it really makes sense!

"Alright, in such hot weather, go buy an ice cream to cool off!"

"Hai, arigato!"

!

After entering the living room of Shanyingyuan, Hezi immediately hugged Eitaro and rubbed the dog's head angrily.

Then she asked the question she didn't ask at the door:

"Nii-chan, why did you give those two people money?"

"Hezi-chan, we are not Yakuza. If we let others carry things and work, don't we have to give them compensation?"

"But..."

"You want to say that those two are hooligans, right?"

"Yes!" Xiaona-chan also nodded repeatedly from the side.

"Hezi-chan, they are just two children who haven't seen much of the world. A lesson is enough, but if we use Grandpa's background to oppress them, wouldn't we become the bad guys? Giving money is a respect for one's own personality."

Hezi was stunned listening to this, and finally said: "Anyway, you said all the good and bad things..."

"Hahaha~"

Under the scorching sun, two high school students eating popsicles were resting in a small restaurant.

"Hey! Bunichi, do you think those two people are really the grandson and granddaughter of the Yamaguchi-gumi boss?"

Hokuto Nakazawa bit off a piece of popsicle and shivered from the cold.

"It's probably true... otherwise they wouldn't be so confident. Did you notice? The place where those two live is the kind of place that bosses like to live in."

"? What do you mean?"

"Baka, hidden and quiet, the courtyard wall is high, and there is a big cherry blossom tree in the courtyard!"

"Oh oh oh~"

"Anyway, I feel that person is not bad! He even gave us money to use..."

"Yeah, much better than our current boss!"

"Yeah..."

Just as the two were talking, the landlady of the small restaurant brought up the tray: "The cold noodles for the two guests are ready! Please enjoy!"

"Hai, arigato!" x2
