Chapter 1746: You Are Not the Only One

Kawasaki Changye's face was almost pressed against the corpse of Kawasaki Ye; he looked at that pale face and couldn't help but smile, then he suddenly stood up abruptly and shoved Kawasaki Dao to the side.

"You..." Kawasaki Dao was furious, staring at Kawasaki Changye; just a moment ago, he had clearly felt the killing intent on Kawasaki Changye.

Yes, this son of his seemed to have developed a murderous heart toward him.

"My beloved father, I know you have always looked down on me." The respectful expression on Kawasaki Changye's face vanished without a trace, replaced by a sneer.

"But do you know? I actually didn't want to come into this world; the one at fault isn't me, it's you." Kawasaki Changye said coldly: "It was you who couldn't control your lower half, which is why I was brought into this world. Do you think that is fair to me?"

"You dare to be disrespectful to me? You bastard..." Kawasaki Dao pulled a handgun from his waist and pointed it at Kawasaki Changye: "Do you believe that I will kill you right now? Tell me, does your brother's death have anything to do with you?"

Kawasaki Changye stared at the exasperated Kawasaki Dao, and suddenly a sickly smile appeared on his face; he grabbed the pitch-black muzzle, aimed it at his own head, and then looked straight into Kawasaki Dao's eyes: "Do it, pull the trigger, pull it now."

"You..." Kawasaki Dao naturally did not dare; no matter how much he looked down on this illegitimate son, he was, after all, his own biological son.

Having just lost one son, he did not want to lose a second one.

"Heh, what's wrong? Do it, why aren't you doing it?" Kawasaki Changye said through gritted teeth: "Do you think you are very benevolent? Didn't all those brothers of yours die by your own hands? If they hadn't died, would you have the status you have today?"

"Shut up." Kawasaki Dao's hand trembled slightly; his past being exposed to his face by this illegitimate son made him extremely angry.

"I am merely stating a fact. Want to kill me? Come, aim here, pull the trigger." Kawasaki Changye said coldly: "Kill me, and the Kawasaki Family will have no successor. Do you dare?"

"Do you really think the future of the Kawasaki Family must be handed to you?" Kawasaki Dao stared at him and suddenly smiled.

"What do you mean?" Kawasaki Changye was startled, and his heart suddenly became uneasy.

"Who told you that you are my only illegitimate son? Heh, it's just that he is still young, only ten years old, but give him ten years and he will grow up." Kawasaki Dao laughed loudly: "By then, he will shoulder the future of the Kawasaki Family."

"What did you say? You... you have another illegitimate son?" This time it was Kawasaki Changye's turn to lose his composure; no matter how he calculated, he never expected his old man to have such a card up his sleeve.

"Heh, with my status, how could I only have you as an illegitimate son? It's just that your mother, that shameless thing, insisted on clinging to me; otherwise, how could you have appeared in the Kawasaki Family and lived so comfortably?" Kawasaki Dao sneered.

He muttered: "Things have reached this point; it seems it is time to make his identity public."

Pushing the cart with Kawasaki Ye's corpse, Kawasaki Dao slowly left the place, leaving behind a bewildered Kawasaki Changye.

"Chen Yu..."

When Chen Yu finally managed to have a moment of leisure, Chuan Naizi came looking for him again.

"What are you here for again? Oh, your credit from the time before last was pretty good, right? No need to thank me, that was what I should have done." Chen Yu furrowed his brows; he knew that whenever Chuan Naizi showed up, it was never for anything good.

"The Ichikawa Family matter still needs to be investigated; there are many details I cannot account for." Chuan Naizi wore an official, business-like expression.

"You can just make up a report for those details; do you really have to come and ask me?" Chen Yu was speechless; being too serious sometimes wasn't necessarily a good thing, because it was truly annoying.

"That won't do. The problems with the Ichikawa Family are too serious. The higher-ups have already established a special task force specifically for this case, so the details must be clearly accounted for," Chuan Naizi said.

"They established a task force just to shut the mouths of those who didn't die in the Ichikawa Family," Chen Yu said indifferently: "If the mouths of the Ichikawa Family can't be kept shut, the people above will be implicated, so do you think the details are important?"

"What do you mean by that?" Chuan Naizi was stunned and asked in confusion.

"Those ugly things the Ichikawa Family did—if they didn't have a powerful person backing them, do you really think a small family could have pulled it off?" Chen Yu said indifferently: "The reason they haven't been held accountable for so many years is, in the end, due to power struggles behind the scenes."

"The establishment of the task force is just to quickly wipe out the people of the Ichikawa Family, so details and such are not important."

Chuan Naizi did not speak; after a long while, she slowly lowered her head and fell into Silence.

"Do you not believe what I said?" Chen Yu glanced at Chuan Naizi.

"No, I believe what you said." Chuan Naizi shook her head: "You are right. If there wasn't someone supporting them from behind the scenes, with the Ichikawa Family's strength, it would have been impossible for them to do so many things without making a sound."

"Our police station has many files on missing persons every year, and a large portion of them are sealed directly without investigation. These must have been ordered by those people."

"Huh, you've changed, haven't you?" Chen Yu looked at Chuan Naizi with some surprise: "If it were before, you definitely wouldn't have believed my words so easily; you would have definitely made me go to great lengths to explain a lot. But now you believe me directly, which makes me a bit unaccustomed to it."

"Before, I had faith in my heart; I felt that the small group of people at the top of our country were all serving the public, but now I don't think so anymore." Chuan Naizi said: "This world is not entirely light; there is some darkness that we can never touch."

"Although we cannot touch it, that does not mean it does not exist."

"Not bad, you've grown." Chen Yu nodded slightly: "The politicians here never consider the common people; they only consider their own interests."

Chuan Naizi remained in Silence; although she didn't want to believe it, she still nodded slowly, because what Chen Yu said was the truth.

"Actually, I want to ask one thing: if one day you discovered that your father, who is a politician, is actually the same as those people, what would you do?" Chen Yu asked.

"That's impossible, he is not like them." Chuan Naizi became agitated; her father, in the depths of her heart, was like a god—he was upright and kind, and even if he were in the middle of a whirlpool, he could not be the same as those people.
