Chapter 597: Police and gangs sitting together singing karaoke?

~21 min read 4,109 words

"What other ideas do I have for 'Twilight Meow Meow'..."

After Naoki Nagayama sent away the owner of the snack stall who had sold out, he returned to the "Twilight Meow Meow" preparation group and chatted with Tai Sugiura and Yasushi Akimoto and the others.

"Speaking of the program format, this kind of talent show program can't be innovated anymore, right~"

The current "Twilight Meow Meow" could be said to be a variety show that combined the advantages of the currently hottest talent show "Star! Birth!", the future "Rocket 101", "The Voice", "Masked Singer", etc.

Such a program made the threshold of the audience in the Showa era increase quite a bit at once, and other similar programs couldn't attract much attention, making all the planners of TV stations curse wildly in their hearts... How can there be such a roll!

It could be said that it had already reached the peak of the same type of idol talent show.

At this time, asking Naoki Nagayama to add a little more was really embarrassing...

Tai Sugiura was saying: "Yes, because it needs to be broadcast every day, and new ideas need to be thought of every day... it's really too difficult."

Yasushi Akimoto also nodded in agreement. Although he belonged to the peak period of his brain at this time, having to think of new scripts every day was really consuming brain cells, and he had lost weight these days...

"Is that so~" Naoki Nagayama scratched his temples with his index finger, "Then we can only think of ways on freshness."

"Freshness?" Tai Sugiura and Yasushi Akimoto both looked over, "Our creativity is about to be exhausted..."

"I mean the freshness of the contestant's style... For example, have you tried the rebellious style of young people?" Naoki Nagayama laughed, "For example, delinquent culture, bad girls, etc... Isn't it very popular in the past two years? Even 'Crows Zero' is very popular~"

"Bad girls?"

Yasushi Akimoto imagined in his head the members of the Kitten Club wearing short skirts with slogans, dyeing colorful hair, wearing heavy makeup, and looking at himself with disdain... Why did his heartbeat inexplicably accelerate? Really want to be ravaged by the big sister...

Naoki Nagayama didn't notice the fantasy of a certain little fatty and continued to say to Tai Sugiura:

"Or pay attention to the latest trendy elements of young people, graffiti, motorcycle gangs, heavy metal, hip-hop trends, disco, karaoke, etc... Adding these elements that young people think are trendy into the program will definitely bring the audience unparalleled freshness."

Tai Sugiura nodded repeatedly as he listened, but Rumi Nishi suddenly asked: "I know heavy metal and hip-hop trends, but what is karaoke?"

"Karaoke!"

"Eh? The kind in restaurants and bars?"

"Rumi-san, you actually don't know?"

Naoki Nagayama looked at Rumi Nishi with an expression of "no way, no way", making this urban beauty show a look of shame on her face.

"What exactly is it? Everyone doesn't know, right!" Rumi Nishi hurriedly looked around and pulled everyone in the office to be ashamed together.

"It's the trendiest and hottest new nightclub in Harajuku... KTV!" Naoki Nagayama said surprisingly, "Didn't you experience it before?"

"Eh?" Rumi Nishi then reacted, "How did KTV become a trend for young people?"

Naoki Nagayama sighed: "Rumi-san, you have a generation gap with young people! Go ask the young people in West Tokyo now, who doesn't know the name of KTV! It's full every day!"

"Really?"

Not only Rumi Nishi, but the other two also couldn't believe it. Although they went to experience it once during the trial operation, it had only been a few days since it opened, but it could actually cause such a great influence?

Naoki Nagayama suddenly had another idea:

"Why don't we go to the KTV to try it today! Let's go see the popularity on the spot! If Tai-san and Akimoto-san both feel it's good, 'Twilight Meow Meow' doing a special issue on KTV will definitely be popular too."

Tai Sugiura, Yasushi Akimoto, and Rumi Nishi looked at each other and felt that this idea was good. It happened that they could go out and have fun in the evening~

"Then let's finish editing today's program quickly, and then match tomorrow's script!" Tai Sugiura immediately agreed, "About an hour or so, let's go to the KTV again!"

"Yes!" X2

Naoki Nagayama was thinking about notifying Akina to go sing karaoke together in the evening!

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"I understand!"

"I will definitely follow the team leader's instructions!"

"......."

Sanban Xiaohong Misaka, the general of the China Group of the East Asia Association who hung up the phone, looked very unhappy.

The head of the younger brothers, Yuya Tada, asked carefully:

"General, does the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters have any instructions? Could it be that something went wrong with the fourth-generation succession ceremony?"

"It's not about the succession ceremony!" Facing his most loyal younger brother, Sanban Xiaohong Misaka didn't hide it and said indignantly, "Takenaka-wakato actually used the name of the headquarters to tell us not to interfere with the business of the Shimizu family..."

"Shimizu family?" Yuya Tada reacted, "Is it that Nagayama group? Could it be the KTV?"

"Right! Not only can we not interfere, but we also have to provide appropriate protection!" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka's face was ugly, "Damn it, they haven't even become the fourth generation yet, and they actually issued such a tough instruction!"

Since that conflict at the KTV, Sanban Xiaohong Misaka had been paying attention to the situation of the KTV.

After learning that this new type of nightclub had been full since it opened, and the turnover was flowing into the pockets of the Nagayama group like running water, his heart felt like it was being scratched by a monkey...

Actually, that kind of business model was very simple and easy to copy. He was considering opening one himself, but didn't expect that at this time, the headquarters of the Yamaguchi-gumi actually issued such an order!

Yuya Tada immediately expressed the same position as the general: "Yes, there is no protection fee! What is this!"

Sanban Xiaohong Misaka drank a cup of sake in one gulp: "It must be that old fox Hayato Nagayama who said something to the wakato! That's why the headquarters issued such words!"

"General... are we really going to let this piece of fat slip away from our mouths?!" Yuya Tada said unwillingly.

"......" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka held the wine glass and thought silently. After a long time, he sneered, "Takenaka-wakato's order can command the people of the Yamaguchi-gumi, but will the Sumiyoshi-kai, Inagawa-kai, and this association and that association listen?!"

"But... didn't the order tell us to protect the KTV?"

"Ha, we guarantee not to collect protection fees, not to open competing businesses of the same type!" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka said, "But if others open them, or other capital opens them, then there's nothing we can do~"

"When other KTVs are all opened, we will naturally want a share of the pie too!"

"General is wise!"

Yuya Tada toasted Sanban Xiaohong Misaka with a cup of wine like a sycophant.

"By the way, I've always heard that it's very popular over there. Why don't we take this opportunity to go experience it in the evening!" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka had a sudden whim and said to his younger brother.

"Us? Today?" Yuya Tada was surprised.

"Right, what's wrong?"

"... I'm worried that there won't be any private rooms in the KTV today..."

"......."

In the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters at Sakurada Gate.

Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami, who was preparing to get off work, ran into Takahito Shirakawa who hurried back:

"Shirakawa, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Headquarters meeting... regarding the Glico kidnapping case and the food poisoning case... they have already been merged into one."

"Is it that case where it was written in the supermarket that 'there is highly toxic potassium cyanide in these Glico foods'?" Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami naturally knew, "Isn't this the business of the First Investigation Division? What does it have to do with our Fourth Division?"

As a nominal section chief, he almost didn't care about these ordinary tasks anymore, and Takahito Shirakawa basically handled all the trivial matters in the section.

"Because the influence is too great, the minister asked our entire Criminal Investigation Department to cooperate." Takahito Shirakawa said, "If this matter is not stopped, then the matter of poisoning public food to blackmail listed companies will continue endlessly!"

"Hmm... okay, then thank you for your hard work, Shirakawa!"

"Yes, Section Chief Minami, then I'll go first~"

After Takahito Shirakawa left, Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami then slowly continued to get off work. Anyway, the final responsibility for these things would definitely not fall on him. More trouble is worse than less trouble.

Just at this moment, he heard the voice of the patrol inspector from the walkie-talkie: "Fourth patrol of Harajuku KTV, there are many people waiting in the lobby, but no other incidents have occurred, that's all!"

Oh? Heard the news about the KTV again!

Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami was quite concerned about the nightclub opened by his old rival, and specially instructed the patrol inspector below to patrol diligently.

He always felt that this guy Hayato Nagayama definitely wouldn't just open a nightclub. Was there any illegal transaction hidden inside? Drugs? Guns?

However, without evidence, it was not easy to let a large number of police go to search...

Anyway, nothing was happening, why not go for a micro-visit today?

So he found three police officers with low ranks in the section and asked them to go to the KTV with him in the evening to play...

Nonsense, an old guy like him who had dealt with gangs all his life, what if he was put in a sack if he went to the gang's territory without bringing subordinates?

When Naoki Nagayama drove to Harajuku, the sky was already completely dark, but Harajuku Street was still brightly lit, making the whole area look like daytime... No, it should be said that under the illumination of neon lights, it was more colorful.

Finding a parking space, Naoki Nagayama got off the convertible sports car with Akina, and then many people got off one after another from the cars next to them.

Besides the people from Fuji TV like Tai Sugiura, Rumi Nishi, Yasushi Akimoto, there were also Toshihiko Tahara, Naoko Kawai, and others... Upon hearing that they were going to play at the KTV, the young people all came out together very happily.

"Naoki-san, there won't be any private rooms left, right?"

Akina Nakamori changed into a neat pair of jeans and a jacket, and seeing the full lobby of the KTV in the distance, she asked Naoki Nagayama with some worry.

"Don't worry, of course it's reserved!" This place originally reserved two VIP rooms, Naoki Nagayama naturally had one when he went.

After whispering to Akina, he greeted the others and walked towards the shop.

"Rumi-san, look, it's really popular, right!" He said to Rumi Nishi, "They are all young people... They can come to KTV to play once now, and they can brag for a long time~"

"Haha, Naoki-san, I clearly saw middle-aged people, and old people!" Rumi Nishi pointed to a few people in the lobby and said.

"That shows that singing karaoke is suitable for all ages!"

Naoki Nagayama looked over while walking, and there were actually acquaintances in the lobby.

A few minutes ago~

Sanban Xiaohong Misaka and Yuya Tada brought five younger brothers to the KTV and indeed found that it was very popular here.

"What? No private rooms tonight?"

Yuya Tada said fiercely to the waiter on duty today, and the look on his face made the little sister at the reception tremble.

Tetsuhiro Kurita, who arrived at the shop today, hurriedly stepped forward to replace the receptionist whose face was not good, and said to Yuya Tada: "Really sorry, there are too many people in our shop, and today's private rooms are already full~ Please come again next time~"

"You guys, do you know who I am? I am from the China Group of the East Asia Association, and behind me is our general!" Yuya Tada said loudly to Tetsuhiro Kurita, "We are from the Yamaguchi-gumi!"

"......."

Tetsuhiro Kurita actually recognized it, but this KTV was of the Nagayama group, and Big Brother Feng said that there was no need to sell the face of other associations!

"Sorry, but our private rooms are indeed full..."

"You!" Having mixed in the society for so many years, this was the first time he was rejected by a nightclub. Yuya Tada was very angry and was about to explode immediately, "You make it clear to me, we are the Yamaguchi-gumi! Do you believe I'll bring people to push your broken shop!"

"Oh? Can the Yamaguchi-gumi push any shop at will?"

Just at this moment, an old voice came from behind,

"I don't know, why are the gangs so arrogant now?"

Clearly coming for a micro-visit, but seeing the gang actually threatening the shopkeeper in front of him, Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami couldn't hide it anymore.

He had fought with gangs all his life and hated this kind of thing the most.

Sanban Xiaohong Misaka, who had been sitting steadily in the back, couldn't continue watching the show. He recognized Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami. This was Takahito Shirakawa's superior! The section chief of the Fourth Investigation Division.

The Fourth Investigation Division was the sword hanging over all the associations in Tokyo!

"Ah, isn't this Section Chief Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami? Why are you free to come to the nightclub in Harajuku today?" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka had a hypocritical smile on his face, "Are you here to inspect?"

"It's you~"

Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami knew that Sanban Xiaohong Misaka was an up-and-coming star of the Tokyo Yamaguchi-gumi, but it had always been Takahito Shirakawa who contacted him.

"Why, can't the police come to the nightclub to play after getting off work?"

"No, no, no, of course you can. But since you are off work, don't put on the airs of a policeman~" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka feared the Fourth Investigation Division, but for those who mixed in gangs, they naturally couldn't admit defeat in words, "There are no private rooms here anymore, do the police want to grab with the guests? The police don't have privileges either!"

"Oh? Since there are no private rooms, why are you scum still staying here?"

The yin and yang words made Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami angry, and he didn't show any mercy in his words. Having dealt with each other for so many years, his mouth skills were not bad.

"......" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka's face changed, but he immediately showed a smile again, "We are waiting to see if any new private rooms are empty~ Policeman, do you want to wait together?"

"Oh? Do you want to sing with the police?" Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami mocked, "We are fine, but you scum actually dare to stay with the police?"

Sanban Xiaohong Misaka was tough in words: "What's wrong, we are good citizens!"

At this time, the guests who were waiting in the lobby all felt something was wrong. This was a conflict between gangs and police! They were very good at reading the air, and one by one they left quietly~

Tetsuhiro Kurita saw these two groups arguing and didn't know how to intervene... Feng Nagayama went to see the new shop, and today only he was left in the KTV. Facing such a tricky situation, he was also very embarrassed.

But looking at them arguing... the guests were all scared away!

When Naoki Nagayama and the others walked into the shop, they found nearly ten people in the lobby staring at each other angrily, and the atmosphere was very tense.

He hurriedly signaled the others to bypass this group and walk inside... He recognized both of the leaders, one was the general of the China Group of the East Asia Association, and one was the section chief of the Fourth Investigation Division... Why did they suddenly conflict again today?

Hurriedly grabbed a waiter and asked him to take his friends to the VIP room, then he stayed behind to understand the situation with Tetsuhiro Kurita.

However, just when Akina Nakamori and the others were walking towards the stairs, Yuya Tada discovered it.

He grabbed Tetsuhiro Kurita's shoulder very angrily: "Didn't you say the private rooms were full? How did they go up?!"

"Eh? They..." Tetsuhiro Kurita was speechless for a moment.

However, Naoki Nagayama walked over, pulled down Yuya Tada's hand directly, and said with a smile:

"We have reserved it! I am the boss, it is very reasonable to keep a private room for myself, right?"

"......"

Yuya Tada felt the strength on his arm. How could this kid have such great strength?! Also, how dare he take his hand off?!

Naoki Nagayama appeared, and the old members of the association left behind by Hayato Nagayama naturally gathered over.

They were here to learn how to operate a KTV, not to work. Usually, they only listened to Feng Nagayama and the head of the younger brothers, Naogo Hamasaki. Tetsuhiro Kurita was just a professional manager, and these people might not listen to what he said.

Tetsuhiro Kurita was dealing with the guest's conflict, and they would only watch the show from the side~

However, Naoki Nagayama came. This was the secret third-generation candidate of the Nagayama group, so they couldn't pretend nothing happened, and one by one they gathered behind Naoki Nagayama.

Yuya Tada saw one strong figure after another surrounding him and immediately restrained his arrogance. After all, he didn't bring many people today.

Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami and Sanban Xiaohong Misaka both recognized Naoki Nagayama.

"So it's you, Hayato Nagayama's grandson!" Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami had a deep impression of this young man, "Are you in charge of the Nagayama group now?"

"Of course not, I'm here to play at the KTV, didn't expect to meet Section Chief Minami again." Naoki Nagayama nodded towards Sanban Xiaohong Misaka, "And Boss Misaka..."

Naoki Nagayama didn't want this conflict to continue, otherwise all the guests in the evening would run away:

"Really sorry, the ordinary private rooms in this shop are already full... However, to prevent this kind of thing, for important guests, we also reserved a VIP room. If you two really want to sing, you can go to the VIP room to experience it..."

"Today's bill is on the shop, as an apology..."

Actually there were two, but Naoki Nagayama didn't intend to give up his own private room. He thought about letting these two groups know the difficulty and retreat. There was only one left. The police couldn't sing karaoke with the gangs, right?!

"Only one left?" Yuya Tada was indignant, "Clearly that group of people went up just now!"

"Yes, so there is only one left! Is there any problem?"

Naoki Nagayama looked at this guy who was a head shorter than himself and felt that this person was very annoying, and his tone became unhappy. Naogo Hamasaki, who was originally in the back, was very familiar with the rhythm of association negotiations and immediately took a step forward with the old members of the association... The sense of oppression came to his face!

"......"

"Haha, since there is still one left, then naturally there is no problem~" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka stopped the impulsive Yuya Tada, nodded with a smile, and looked at Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami, "According to the order of first come, first served, then we want this private room. Section Chief Minami, the police won't grab with us, right?"

Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami didn't want to leave dejectedly. He came to investigate specially. Although he was exposed now, let the gang members give way? How could that be!

"Didn't the shopkeeper say it? It's reserved for important guests! Shopkeeper-san... I should be considered an important guest!"

Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami looked at Naoki Nagayama and said. This was to suppress people with power! He was a person on the official side!

"......" Naoki Nagayama didn't take his words. He looked at Sanban Xiaohong Misaka, "Boss Misaka, what do you think?"

"......"

Sanban Xiaohong Misaka cursed in his heart, this Naoki Nagayama is not a good person, how could I admit defeat now! "Haha, didn't expect Section Chief Minami to threaten the shopkeeper~ You want to sing karaoke so much?"

"How could it be threatening the shopkeeper? It's just that this kind of private room is originally reserved for important people~"

"However, I clearly arrived first~ Section Chief Minami doesn't know the order of first come, first served?"

"Importance comes before first come, first served!"

"......"

And couldn't fight, the two groups of black and white actually started a war of words, making Naoki Nagayama speechless.

After listening for a while, he blurted out:

"How about... you guys together?"

"!!!" Both sides looked at Naoki Nagayama. Let the police and gangs sing together? How did you come up with that? Is your brain broken?

However, Sanban Xiaohong Misaka, who had already been put on the pole, couldn't retreat:

"Haha, we naturally have no problem, but the policeman shouldn't dare, right? After all, it's with association personnel~"

"We don't dare? You scum dare to sing with the police? What do we have to be afraid of!"

Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami looked disdainful, "It must be you guys who run away!"

Seeing that they were about to argue again, Naoki Nagayama immediately signaled Tetsuhiro Kurita: "Kurita-san, take them to the biggest one!"

The super-large VIP room that could accommodate 50 people should be able to satisfy the two groups to open a group, right?!

So, in the strange atmosphere, the plainclothes police and the nervous association personnel walked towards the private room on the third floor together.

Naoki Nagayama stayed behind to exhort Tetsuhiro Kurita and Naogo Hamasaki:

"I estimate they won't sing for too long... However, drinks and beverages should still be sent up at the normal level. By the way, Hamasaki-san, if they fight, immediately subdue the association people! Must protect those police well~"

"Yes, I understand!"

"If more people come later, it doesn't matter, just let them go up~"

Tetsuhiro Kurita was surprised: "Still more people?"

"Isn't there a phone in the private room... maybe they will call people."

"......."

When Naoki Nagayama handled everything and walked into his private room, the few people inside were chatting excitedly.

Sitting next to Akina Nakamori, he heard his little girlfriend ask with some worry:

"Naoki-san, does this KTV have conflicts between police and gangs every day? Is it so dangerous?"

"Not at all, it's just a coincidence today~" Naoki Nagayama comforted, "It's fine, it's all solved."

Yasushi Akimoto asked curiously: "What was the final result? Did the policeman and the association personnel withdraw?"

"No..." Naoki Nagayama laughed, "They are singing together in another private room~"

"Eh?!......."

The others in the private room were extremely shocked.

Police and gangs sitting together singing karaoke?! This was the first time such a strange scene had happened in Tokyo.

Later, as Naoki Nagayama expected, many people came to the KTV one after another. Some were police who took off their uniforms, and some were burly men with tattoos. They were all arranged in that super-large private room upstairs...

Walking in and looking, Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami was singing an old enka song steadily, while Sanban Xiaohong Misaka on the other side was beating the rhythm with a straight face.

In front of the police, the gangs were still a head lower. Staying in the private room now without leaving was purely because they couldn't show weakness.

However, with Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami taking the lead, the police side was much more relaxed. Many people looked at the association personnel on the side who were angry but didn't dare to speak, and all showed smiles on their faces.

"Misaka-san, come, let's sing together!" Nan Nan Jun Xiong Minami laughed, "Don't be restrained~"

"Hehe~" Sanban Xiaohong Misaka held on for a while, drank a cup of whiskey fiercely, "Sing then sing!"

He figured it out. This was not a confrontation between gangs. These police wouldn't really hurt him. Isn't it just singing? He wanted to see who would be uncomfortable by the end, the police or the gangs!

"Damn it, come, drink up, sing up, let's have fun with the policeman tonight!"
