After a while, Takagi Renpachi opened the door and actually said with some respect: "Miss Haruno, please."

Tao Zhiming raised his eyes and saw that the person entering the door was wearing a witch costume.

A red knot was tied in front of her white dress, and her red scarf tied up her slender waist. Her long black hair hung in two strands in front of her body, and was simply tied with a red rope at the back.

The most attractive thing is actually her eyes. Needless to say, she looks beautiful, but there is a kind of indifference and sharpness in her eyes, and there is an ethereal temperament in her movements, as if she should appear in a shrine to serve the gods, and

You shouldn't come to a place like this.

Her father once worked in Moonlight Village, so she must have been exposed to art since she was a child, right? There is some elegance and literary atmosphere.

Tao Zhiming called him "good guy, why does Takagi Renpachi bring all the beauties that are cool and cool? Are you sure he likes the one from Fukaya Riko?"

But this one should be a bit more special. It shouldn't be just a junior tool person like Fukaya Riko, but a high-level tool person.

Ueno Yosuke looked a little stunned. When he saw her walking in front of her, he bent down, then knelt down and said softly: "This is our first meeting, please take care of me. My name is Haruno Haruka, the shrine maiden of Hachiman Shrine."

The voice was very pleasant. He raised his head and looked at Takagi Renpachi and asked calmly: "Mr. Takagi, you said you would tell me the truth about father's suicide today. I am listening."

Tao Zhiming looked at her sharp eyes and was speechless: Do you think I am your enemy?

This witch has thorns.

"We haven't started eating yet, let's chat while eating."

Yes, after talking so much, we were just chatting.

Takagi Renpachi asked others to bring food over, and first introduced Haruno Haruka: "You have been staying in the shrine and don't pay attention to things outside. This person's name is Tao Dalang. Let me tell you about his deeds first...

"

After saying that, Takagi Renpachi boasted about Tao Zhiming's "glorious achievements" and said, "This is the most talented young man in Neon now."

Facing Haruno Haruka's somewhat surprised look, Tao Zhiming was very thick-skinned, even though he was teasing modestly: "Takagi-san, that's too exaggerated. I'm mainly lucky."

"It's just good luck, but it can't reach this level." Takagi Renpachi finished introducing Tao Zhiming, and introduced Ueno Yosuke by the way, "Ueno-kun is Tao Jun's college classmate, and now he is starting a career with Tao Jun."

The introduction to him was very simple and lackluster, and Yosuke Ueno had nothing to say. Who made Tao Zhiming really shine? He was just a follower.

Haruno Haruka frowned: "What does this have to do with my father's death?"

No one frowned, and no one felt pity. Instead, Tao Zhiming saw some impatience and rudeness, as if she only cared about this matter and didn't care whether it would offend a big shot like Takagi Renpachi.

Although Takagi Renpachi looked kind and friendly in front of Tao Zhiming, Tao Zhiming knew from Fukaya Riko's mouth how powerful Takagi Renpachi was.

But Takagi Renpachi just sighed: "Why Haruno-san had to choose to commit suicide, I will tell you completely today. Your doubts about the chairman are really unreasonable."

Later, Takagi Jinhacai and Tao Zhiming explained while eating.

Gekkosou is a gallery that was founded more than 70 years ago. When it was founded, it gathered literary and artistic figures such as Ryunosuke Akutagawa. It was actually an art club.

But starting in the 1970s, the second generation of Gekko Manor invited a neon piano industry idol and socialite to jointly operate it. Relying on the socialite's connections, Gekko Manor established a secret membership-based art salon.

Because Haruno Haruka's mother had the bloodline of Oda Nobunaga and had quite a few connections in the small circle at the time, she was invited by the socialite to join the art salon. Her father also joined Gekko Manor.

Not long after, Haruno Haruka's mother died of illness, but her father thrived in Moonlight Manor.

"Nakane-sama, the former president of Zhou Kingdom, the president of Neon Economic News, the chairman of the Tokyo Stock Exchange... The membership list of Gekkosou is a collection of celebrities." Takagi Renpachi said and took a sip.

Liquor, then sighed, "But such a club is also the best platform to conduct some secret transactions in the name of art. Now, isn't it because of this kind of thing that it was forced to be investigated by the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office and subsequently sued for bankruptcy?

"

Tao Zhiming raised his eyebrows. The Moonlight Village incident began to ferment earlier than the Riculut incident. This is why after the Moonlight Village incident and the Riculut incident with more concentrated flashpoints, Takegami

The reason for the turmoil among others.

The reason was that a so-called Leonardo da Vinci's famous painting was sold for a sky-high price of 2.15 billion yen, and then Idali received an official note: Isn't the original painting well hidden with me? Which one is the real one? Isn't it?

Was there any bag theft?

It turned out to be a fake to launder money, and the organization that took the painting wanted to embezzle a sum of public funds.

For such a trivial matter to be subject to Tokyo prefectural inspection, it is of course a shock. Just before Takegami resigned, Gekko Manor declared bankruptcy. The artworks he had been hoarding for a long time were not taken care of, and he is currently clearing nearly 20 billion yen in debt.

Takagi Renpachi continued: "Your father had to..."

When he said this, he looked at Haruno Haruka: "Your father planned the matter. He took out the so-called paintings and calligraphy passed down to your mother by Lord Oda Nobunaga and let people from the Furong Consortium buy them. The reason why they

Naturally, he was willing to buy it at a high price because he had other purposes. At that time, some people knew about it.

, in order to prevent the matter from involving more people, and in order that you and your daughter will not be coerced by the Yamaguchi-gumi all the time in the future, your father has no choice but to stand up and admit that he forged it, and bear the responsibility. A person with Nobunaga's bloodline

The family heirlooms that were brought out, the Furong Consortium can’t be blamed for saying that they believe it.”

"Then..." Takagi Renpachi sighed, "your father used the proceeds from the auction to buy the ownership of the Hachiman Shrine with others. Because...religious activities are tax-free. Then, in order to maintain the historic sites here

, some usage fees are paid here every year... Although you are a shrine maiden at the shrine, you don't pay attention to these things, right? You always pray to Amaterasu and Hachiman to punish the president, but you make a mistake! And...

What’s the use?”

Tao Zhiming is very convinced. If you explain this clearly to her, won't she refuse to stay in this shrine anymore? Do you still need my help?

It turns out that she had inherited a small share of her father's share in this shrine and was working as a shrine maiden. Little did she know that she was being used by the people who caused her father to commit suicide.

As expected, Haruno Haruka's expression changed, and her originally fair face became even whiter. Although I was skeptical, I'm afraid I had never heard this before.

If you had known this before, your acting skills would have been great.

"...What evidence is there?" She gritted her teeth and asked in a low voice.

"How can there be evidence for such a thing?" Takagi Renpachi replied, "But if the president really harmed your father, how could he ask the president to take care of you in front of you at that time?"

Haruno Haruka tightened her sleeves and pursed her lips without speaking.

"Yes, the president paid part of the money to purchase the ownership of the Hachiman Shrine here with your father. But the person who encouraged your father to do this was not the president, but a special agent of the Furong Foundation."

Takagi Renpachi said, "You want to know the proof?

If there is evidence, if the Furong Consortium can be made to pay the price in the future, the evidence can be heard from that person. Now it depends on whether Tao Jun is willing to help you in this matter. At the beginning, he could make the head of the Iwasaki family of Mitsubishi

Someone who had to commit suicide on the spot to apologize!"

Tao Zhiming looked at Takagi Renpachi speechlessly, "Are you sure that I will target Furong Consortium? What if it is Sanwa?"

Maybe the target of First Quanye Bank is Sanhe.

Who knows what other intricate relationships there are between you?

Moreover, what does it mean to reveal the old stories of Iwasaki Kuranosuke?

He was looking at Takagi Renpachi with a meaningful look, but Haruno Haruka looked at Tao Zhiming with a firm look.

Tao Zhiming looked over and saw that this girl seemed to be very obsessed. In Buddhism, a witch like you is a nun. Why haven't you let go of your worldly thoughts? You have so much hatred that you must avenge your father?

Then Haruno Haruka said: "If this is really the case, I hope Tao Jun can help me! In order to achieve my goal, I am willing to do anything!"

Looking at her firm eyes, Tao Zhiming suddenly understood why Horikawa Nobuhiko and Takagi Renpachi introduced her to him.

A girl of this level is willing to be a tool for revenge. Will Tao Zhiming be moved?

Meaning, you can also use her as a honey trap for others.

For a big shot like Tao Zhiming, there are many occasions where such a tool can be used.

I'm afraid that he wants to vigorously cultivate female celebrities. In the eyes of some big shots, this purpose is shared, if they think that Tao Zhiming's goal is more ambitious.

But Tao Zhiming immediately said: "If what Takagi Sang said is right, then your father himself is the one who made the mistake. Takagi Sang didn't say that others had coerced your father, right Takagi Sang?"

"...In fact, judging from the subsequent investigation, there may be some. Haruno-san may have had some handle before, and at that time, there were still Yakuza people who threatened Miss Haruno's safety."

Tao Zhiming rolled his eyes, it was always you who said it.

He shook his head: "I have no enmity with them, so there is no need to wade through this muddy water. Takagi-san, even without Miss Haruno, I will still cooperate with you where we should cooperate."

Takagi Renpachi said nothing when he heard this. Haruno Haruka also looked at him, wondering what Tao Zhiming meant. Why did it sound like President Horikawa was using her as a bargaining chip?

"...You misunderstood." After Takagi Renpachi said this, he took out a piece of paper from his suit pocket and handed it to Tao Zhiming, "It was written by the president himself."

Tao Zhiming took it over doubtfully and saw that it was indeed handwritten:

[Tao Jun, I'm sorry to tell you in this way. Regarding Yao's request, if Tao Jun is willing to help and have more detailed interviews later, it may be more beneficial to your and my plan. Because that child is very important to me.

I want her to stay with Tao Jun, so that she will not feel more resentful because she feels that I am taking advantage of her. After all, I sincerely regard her as my daughter, and I hope that one day she can sincerely call me father.

Yours sincerely, Nobuhiko Kawa.]

Tao Zhiming raised his eyebrows. It seemed that there were some things that Takagi Renpachi still hadn't made clear in front of Haruno Haruka.

"Can you show me?" Haruno Haruka said, his eyes twinkling.

Tao Zhiming looked at Takagi Renpachi, and seeing that he was noncommittal, he simply handed it over. Haruno Haruka's expression changed after reading it, and he was speechless for a moment.

Takagi Renpachi explained: "Ms. Haruno, during the most precious five years of your life, you neither studied the knowledge about the current era, but also stayed in the shrine and didn't know anything about the outside world. If I tell you more details,

I'm afraid you will just do something recklessly that will hurt yourself. Now that you are eighteen years old, if Tao Jun hadn't appeared, the president would have told you something at the right moment."

Tao Zhiming refused to accept the challenge and said with a smile: "Takagi-san, I have no interest in making enemies with the executives of large financial groups. Isn't President Horikawa trying to make things difficult for me?"

Takagi Renpachi smiled meaningfully, and then snorted: "Really? You don't want to make enemies with him, but the hatred has already been made. The name of that person is Watanabe Akira, and his brother's name is Watanabe

Akatsuki Furong and Mitsuwa initially tried to unite and use Tokyo

To build a new consortium Yuwa for the foundation, when it developed to the level of a small consortium, you and Kinoshita Hidefeng jointly planned it. Do you think that they are so keen on providing financial support for your project because they are purely optimistic about you?
