Chapter 614

The warm sunshine covered his body like a thin quilt, breathable and comfortable, and the fatigue born from his bones made him not want to move.

"Ding~~~"

Between sleeping and waking, the crisp sound of glass cups touching lightly made the person lying on the table wake up suddenly!

Naoki Nagayama raised his head abruptly. When his head was still a bit muddy, he was surprised to find that there was an extra person opposite the tea seat, a delicate beauty...

"Naoki-san~" The woman smiled, and a pair of impressive single-eyelid eyes bent into moons, "Sorry to wake you up~"

"......" Naoki Nagayama hesitated for a moment, "Yuko-san? Why are you here?"

Yes, the person opposite is Yuko Tanaka. Throwing away the kimono and hair bun often seen in TV dramas and movies, the shoulder-length black hair paired with the black knitted wool sweater she was wearing looked mysterious and pure.

"Shopping in Ginza... tired, so I came here to sit for a while. Since you brought me here once, I can be considered a regular customer of this Sanmeiju~" Yuko Tanaka was very calm, "It happened to be you today... Haha, this is the first time I've seen someone fall asleep on the table at a tea seat~"

"......"

Naoki Nagayama wiped his face unnaturally and looked at the time. It had been almost an hour~

This nap was really comfortable. It was too much like the feeling of secretly sleeping with a book upright while listening to the lullaby on the stage in his previous life.

"Hasn't Yuko-san ever fallen asleep on the table?"

Yuko Tanaka smiled and poured a cup of warm tea from the teapot for Naoki Nagayama: "I have when I was in school~"

Naoki Nagayama tried the temperature and drank it in one gulp. The warm tea warmed from his throat to his stomach, and the whole person became refreshed.

"Then, how long has Yuko-san been peeking at my sleeping posture?"

"Only ten minutes~" Yuko Tanaka smiled, "What's so good to look at!"

"That's not necessarily true~ Many people in the entertainment industry covet my body... They can't see it even if they pay!"

Naoki Nagayama said without changing his face, making Yuko Tanaka laugh out loud,

"Really thick-skinned~"

Simple playful words, but the two who hadn't seen each other for several months had no unfamiliarity when they first met. After drinking a few sips of hot tea, Naoki Nagayama asked:

"What has Yuko-san been doing recently?"

"Preparing for the filming of the movie 'Yasha'." Yuko Tanaka said, "Learning the script, memorizing lines, analyzing and experiencing the role..."

The professional and serious actress talked about the preparation work before filming the movie, which made Naoki Nagayama, the director, feel a bit ashamed. This is almost catching up with the actors who write tens of thousands of words of character background for the role.

"'Yasha'?" Naoki Nagayama had an impression of this movie. This was still an advertisement that Ken Takakura said very reluctantly at the Blue Ribbon Awards ceremony, "Is this movie starring Ken Takakura and Beat Takeshi together?"

"Hai! Does Naoki-san also know them both?"

"I've met them once~" Naoki Nagayama mostly uses pure newcomers when filming movies, and hasn't had much contact with veteran actors in the film industry.

"When is the movie expected to be filmed?"

"It's expected to be in September." Yuko Tanaka said while holding her chin.

"So late?" Naoki Nagayama was surprised, "This preparation period has been almost a year!"

"Yes... how can the filming of a movie be so simple. It's very difficult to get the schedules of the three leads together." Yuko Tanaka suddenly smiled, "Ah, I almost forgot, Naoki-san is a famous director, so you must know these things very well."

I really don't know much...

Naoki Nagayama showed a cover-up smile. Who told Shuyou Films to film movies like an assembly line~

Thinking of this, Naoki Nagayama suddenly had an idea: "In that case, does Yuko-san have a schedule before September?"

"Eh? I am free..." Yuko Tanaka looked at Naoki Nagayama, "Why, does Naoki-san have any good projects to take care of me?"

"...... Suddenly feels like a mama-san in a club..." Naoki Nagayama said with disdain, "This summer, I might film a comedy movie, and one of the roles might be very suitable for Yuko-san."

"Oh? What role?"

"A strong, kind, and sensible woman~" Naoki Nagayama said, "She is the wife of a prodigal son!"

"Making a prodigal son turn back, this is not a simple thing~" Yuko Tanaka smiled, "It seems this wife is very capable~"

Looking at Yuko Tanaka opposite smiling like a fox, Naoki Nagayama could only compliment:

"That's why I need an actor like Yuko-san to play it!"

"Hmph, I can play it, but I have to read the script first!"

Since having two well-known films, "The Amagi Pass" and "Oshin", Yuko Tanaka has had the confidence to choose scripts. With her current popularity, it's really hard to say who is taking care of whose business by participating in Naoki Nagayama's movie.

"No problem, I'll send it to you later." Naoki Nagayama naturally had no problem.

The two sat in the tea seat for several hours, chatted well about recent events, then went shopping in Ginza together, and had dinner together... Talking and laughing, the atmosphere between the two was very friendly.

Speaking of which, at this time, Yuko Tanaka is having an underground affair with Kenji Sawada. Yuko Tanaka coming out shopping alone might also be because she wants to relieve the bitterness of not being able to meet her lover.

But if outsiders see it, Yuko Tanaka and Naoki Nagayama look more like they are dating~

It's better to say....... Naoki Nagayama is a spare tire?!

"Kono yaro! So it was that guy!"

Kaede Nagayama patted his thigh heavily, and the sound made Naoki Nagayama's eyes twitch... Doesn't this guy hurt?

After returning to the KTV at night, Naoki Nagayama told his cousin about the guy who was playing tricks behind his back, which made Kaede Nagayama very angry.

"Big Brother Kaede, this Zhizhi Tengze is a person from the Kangin Group anyway. With this big banner, we have to consider everything we do~" Naoki Nagayama organized his language, "That is, we can't send blades, splash paint, send bloody things, or put them in sacks and sink them into Tokyo Bay..."

Kaede Nagayama looked over with a strange look: "Naoki, what are you talking about? How could we do that?!"

"Eh? Isn't it? I saw it in movies like that?" Naoki Nagayama was very surprised.

"......"

Kaede Nagayama seemed to see a fool, "Who would be so troublesome? Mixing in the yakuza in this era, either call to threaten directly, or go to the door to threaten directly!"

"When it's really impossible to handle, at most find a few people to beat them up. Really causing a murder case is not good for anyone! We want to make money..."

Looking at Shogo Hamasaki in the private room, he also had an approving look, which made Naoki Nagayama a bit unable to hold his face: "Then what about those hostile gangs?"

Shogo Hamasaki said: "Beat them up, then threaten them not to interfere. If they don't listen, beat them up again... until they listen!"

"......" Naoki Nagayama didn't believe it, "Then what about when grabbing territory?"

"A group of people fight!" Kaede Nagayama said, "Unless there is no other way, we won't fight to the death."

"What about the guys who betrayed?" Naoki Nagayama continued to ask.

"Ah, that, that is to cut off fingers according to the rules!" Kaede Nagayama said this time, "However, this rule is only popular in some clubs..."

"Besides, it's very troublesome to deal with the cut-off little finger. This is not ordinary medical waste. It looks very disrespectful if burned casually... It's very perverted to collect it~"

Naoki Nagayama interrupted: "Isn't it said that it will be buried under the cherry blossom tree to make the cherry blossoms bloom more brilliantly next year?"

"Baka! If discovered by the police, it will be considered burying a corpse!"

Kaede Nagayama patted his cousin, feeling that this guy's thinking was a bit strange.

"What era is it now? When you can earn money by working casually, if you let people cut off their fingers casually... who else would want to join the club!"

"....... This...... this reason is really grounded!"

Naoki Nagayama was speechless. It seems that economic development can really cover up social contradictions. At least those who choose to enter the yakuza have other choices.

For the next half hour, the three people in the private room began to analyze why so many yakuza were seeking to wash white and transform. The final consensus was that the yakuza has no future, and in the end, everyone has to live in the sun...

Speaking of which, Japan's yakuza groups are indeed experiencing fierce changes. Many clubs have introduced the concept of companies, and even the largest club, the Yamaguchi-gumi, has recently fallen into a crisis of inheritance.

The fourth generation has not been selected for a long time, which more or less has the background of the times. Some people in the organization don't want to live in the original way.

It's getting further and further away... But one thing is clear, what is played in movies is fake!!

"Big Brother Kaede, let's discuss this matter." Naoki Nagayama led the topic back to the beginning, "The subsidiary of the Kangin Group wants our KTV, and also sent Hisahisa Hiramatsu of the Ishii-kai to frame us... How should we reply to him?"

Kaede Nagayama immediately rubbed his hands: "Naoki, give me his home address, I will go and teach him a lesson!"

"...... Big Brother Kaede, you are a public figure anyway, don't think about beating people all day long." Naoki Nagayama shook his head and looked at Shogo Hamasaki, "Hamasaki-san, how would grandfather usually do when encountering such a provocation?"

Shogo Hamasaki thought for a while: "Since the other party has already used an unrefined approach, then we can also use this method to fight back!"

"This?"

When Naoki Nagayama was still confused, Shogo Hamasaki bowed slightly,

"Boss Naoki, when at the Shimizu old house, the group leader gave instructions to minimize contact between you and Boss Kaede and the yakuza. Since the target is already known, leave the follow-up matters to me. I will definitely let the other party feel a reciprocal counterattack!"

Naoki Nagayama and Kaede Nagayama looked at each other and thought about it before agreeing:

"Then everything is left to Hamasaki-san..."

"Hai!"

After bowing again, Shogo Hamasaki left directly and called four or five gang elders he brought with him. It looked like he was going to do something at night~

Zhizhi Tengze, who came out of the Itochu Corporation headquarters in Minato Ward, went to an izakaya with his subordinates to have a drink to contact his feelings as usual.

This drink lasted until the night. Usually, he would return to the mansion in Setagaya, but today he took a taxi to an amusement park in Nihonbashi.

Wearing a full body of alcohol, he walked through the billiard hall on the first floor and followed the narrow stairs to a small door. After pushing it open, the basement, which didn't look big from the outside, was unexpectedly spacious. There were several tables in the room, as well as one or two sofas and a TV, etc...

Three young men in vests were playing cards at a table, one of whom had an ear stud and a tattoo on his arm.

"Hiramatsu!"

Zhizhi Tengze was clearly very familiar with this person, sat directly on the table, joined the card game, and asked while doing so,

"How about the matter I asked you to help with before?"

"Ah, send some material to that KTV in Harajuku~" Hisahisa Hiramatsu of the Ishii-kai said with a relaxed face, "I let a few kids send it, but unfortunately they were caught directly by the police."

"Caught?" Zhizhi Tengze's hand movement paused, "Will that affect us?"

"Haha, rest assured, rest assured... My little brothers are very loyal." Hisahisa Hiramatsu said, "And no matter how you check, it won't involve Section Chief Tengze..."

"That's good~" Zhizhi Tengze relaxed, "Then continue to frame it later?"

"Of course, anyway, let that KTV be overwhelmed, it's best to close down, and then Section Chief Tengze will come forward to take it down~" Hisahisa Hiramatsu shook his head, as if he had already taken drugs, "Isn't this already very skilled!"

"Hmm, isn't your amusement park just like this? Hahaha~" Zhizhi Tengze also laughed more wantonly, letting the others laugh and echo.

For a time, the semi-underground office seemed to be a place for a gathering of demons.

When the laughter stopped, Zhizhi Tengze coughed twice: "Hiramatsu, has the handicap for today opened?"

"Section Chief Tengze, don't be so anxious, the handicap won't start until midnight!"

Hisahisa Hiramatsu used the amusement park as a cover, but actually opened a small gambling handicap, which is why Zhizhi Tengze, as a section chief, is truly familiar with him.

As a section chief of the business department of a group subsidiary, Zhizhi Tengze has a big gambling addiction. Although his salary is generous, he can't afford to fly to legal gambling cities like Las Vegas every year, and gambling is prohibited on the surface in the country, so he can only find these underground casinos to play.

"Then let's have a few games to satisfy our addiction first~" Zhizhi Tengze started shuffling cards~

Near midnight, Shogo Hamasaki, who came out of the KTV, had already learned about the Ishii-kai's station through Takahiro Misaka, the general manager of the Tokyo Yamaguchi-gumi-East Asia Association Chinese Group.

Led by his shatei, Youye Duotian, he had already found this amusement park.

"Is this it?"

Shogo Hamasaki was draped in a half-open loose suit, revealing the complex tattoos on his chest and neck. The few gang elders following him were also the same, and some even started taking off their tops...

Youye Duotian, as a member of the Yamaguchi-gumi in Tokyo, frowned:

"Hamasaki, are you really going to break in like this? This is their base camp!"

"Of course, I didn't learn anything else from Wakato Kumahara, I only learned one thing: no matter what you do, you must be decisive!" Shogo Hamasaki smiled, "Only in this way can the enemy be caught off guard!"

"Are the brothers in Shizuoka all this reckless?" Youye Duotian was speechless, "Our East Asia Association Chinese Group can take the lead in helping to coordinate and communicate, so that the Ishii-kai will no longer come to provoke you."

"How can that be, it will make people see the weakness of the Nagayama Group!"

Shogo Hamasaki shook his head. The peers in Tokyo have all been Tokyoized and have lost the temperament belonging to the yakuza... When a beast is provoked, it won't think about talking and communicating. Biting back hard is the way to make other surrounding beasts afraid.

"Duotian-san, trouble you to call the police later and let them come to wash the ground!"

"........ You....... do you want to kill someone?!"

"No, at most bleed a little!"

After saying this, Shogo Hamasaki took his few brothers and walked into the amusement park with a fierce voice!
