In Taoran Pavilion, Ueno Yosuke and Kinoshita Hidefeng were sitting together.

Miki Kono is next to Hidefeng Kinoshita, but Yosuke Ueno is not next to Yoko Takagi.

"...So, a counterattack may break out at any time now?" Hidekaze Kinoshita looked worried, "Is it really okay? If Nobuhiko Horikawa is really ready to make a desperate move, with the strength he has accumulated in the past, it is really impossible to guard against it. Let Tetsu

Can’t we just let the search department handle it slowly?”

On the contrary, Ueno Yosuke relaxedly hugged the waist of the woman next to him: "It doesn't matter. Since he is going to do this, there is always a necessary reason."

"...You are blindly worshiping him." Kinoshita Hidefeng could not rest assured, "That is Horikawa Nobuhiko after all..."

"But my father and I have been busy in Kansai for so long!" Ueno Yosuke laughed, "Kinoshita-san, don't worry."

He looked at his watch and said, "Ah! It's almost time for the press conference."

Miki Kono immediately went over and turned on the TV.

I was watching TV Tokyo, but the microphones of all the major TV stations were on site.

In front of the still empty seats, there were three names on the table.

They are Tanaka Sakae, Kijima Genichi, and Fujiwara Yuko.

Kinoshita Hidefeng sighed with emotion: "Are we really going to do this? You are worthy of Tanaka-sama, with such courage..."

One of the two suspects who was released on bail was a former prime minister who had "probably confessed in anger", so reporters gathered.

It's almost 8 o'clock.

On the TV screen, there are still only conversations between hosts and a line of eye-catching words.

[Big shock! Important clues to the Lockheed case were voluntarily disclosed? 】

"...But is this really appropriate?" There was a hint of anxiety in the host's voice, "If there are clues about the case, Tanaka-san should still provide them to the judicial department..."

At this moment, there are definitely many people who feel as anxious and frightened as the host.

This seems to be making the situation even more chaotic.

Didn't anyone come out to stop him from talking nonsense? He is already so old, and he is holding on to the 2.5 billion yen. Does he want more people to be buried with him?

At Ryunosuke Iwasaki's house, Yokohisa Iwasaki and his daughter were sitting behind him, also watching TV.

"Now, I wonder if Horikawa-san was also dragged by President Tao to watch TV together." Iwasaki Ryunosuke sighed, "I can't say goodbye. Horikawa-san is indeed an amazing person."

"...Father." Iwasaki Yokohisa was a little confused, "Farewell?"

"Yokohisa, do you know the ins and outs of this entire case?" Ryunosuke Iwasaki asked.

Iwasaki Yokohisa has adapted to this state, which is a special teaching method.

So he said slowly: "My understanding is this..."

This is a true grassroots figure among the great figures of Neon in the past.

After finishing elementary school, he worked as a construction worker in his hometown. At the age of 16, he founded Tokyo. While working as a "migrant worker", he persisted in getting a diploma in civil engineering from a private school at night.

Three years later, such a 19-year-old man dared to start his own business and undertake projects. In 1937, Neon officially began that far-reaching war.

In the blink of an eye, eight years later, Neon's "everything was in need of improvement" gave him a stage. In the first election held by Neon based on the Peace Constitution in 1947, he ran for the assembly of his hometown Niigata Prefecture with the backing of strong financial resources.

But firstly, he has no family resources to draw on and is not from a wealthy family; secondly, he has no "comrade-in-arms resources" and cannot make use of those "remnants"; thirdly, he graduated from elementary school and came from night school, and has no connections like the "Eastern University Department".

All he has is the financial resources of a businessman and his knowledge of ordinary people as a grassroots person.

In fact, at the beginning, he was looked down upon by the party bosses just because of his ability to raise funds and mingle with voters, so he was very proud and rose through the ranks. Ten years later, he became the youngest cabinet minister in Neon's history.

As postal minister, he dared to punish one-tenth of the union members, and he could personally write letters to all employees of the postal system to persuade them to work. He grasped the trend of the times in the late 1950s and approved dozens of TV stations in one go.

It has had an immeasurable effect on the neon TV industry.

As the Minister of Tibet, "How can a person with only a primary school education lead a Ministry of Finance that is full of geniuses?" Such doubts are the mainstream of public opinion. But he dared to give a speech in English at the International Monetary Fund and also studied finance and finance.

, gained the reputation of "bulldozer-style computer", and made the geniuses in the Ministry of Finance become his disciples.

He even fought for the United States to return Okinawa in 1972.

He also wrote "On the Transformation of Neon Islands", a book that made Tao Zhiming admire his vision.

His personal charm, ability, energy, and achievements allowed him to reach the top at the age of 53.

Subsequently, under his promotion, Neon and Xia State established diplomatic relations, and the oil crisis also came.

Iwasaki Yokohisa showed his current progress. After he started to pay attention to certain things, he was also from Tokyo University after all, and he was able to conduct more in-depth investigations and research.

So he expressed his doubts: "Master Tanaka is willing to be infamous this time in a planned manner. In addition to the strategic cooperation with Xia Guo, it is also because of the promotion of Neon International Cooperation Bank that Neon is preparing to start from Levin

Are you going to expand oil imports with Ouilt? But wasn’t it because Mr. Tanaka wanted to solve the challenges brought by the oil crisis and wanted Neon to get rid of its dependence on the United States, so he incurred dissatisfaction from the United States?”

Iwasaki Ryunosuke just sighed and looked at the flashing lights on the screen. The old Tanaka Sakae slowly walked onto the stage: "Because times have changed, and Mr. Tanaka is also old. A man who has burned his whole life, such a life ending

, probably worthy of his generosity!"

In a restaurant in Osaka, Takagi Renpachi and Ito Chu Yukibei were also watching TV.

Ito Tada Yukibei's expression was now confused and he was muttering something silently.

Takagi Jin continued: "Times have changed, Itochu-san. Maybe what I said is not convincing enough, so let's listen to what Mr. Tanaka said."

Ito Chu Yukibei said nothing.

And because Takagi Renpachi knew that this was the end of his "undercover career", he showed the attitude of a superior for the last time in more than two years, even though the target was Ito Chu Yukibei.

"This time, no one will stop Tanaka-sama from saying anything. Tanaka-sama also knows very well what he should say." Takagi Renpachi said calmly, "Soon you will know very well that there is no way to count on Horikawa-san anymore."

On the TV screen, Fujiwara Yuko was very nervous.

Her face was pale, and so many reporters frightened her.

And it was her face that made many important figures in Kansai change their expressions drastically.

At the same time, the Osaka Police Headquarters has mobilized its entire force.

It's night time, which is a good time for some people to cover up something, and it's even better for catching someone in action.

"Nineteen years ago." The old but still powerful voice began, "Literary Spring and Autumn" published two articles. At that time, there was not much attention. Two weeks later, I attended a reception of the Foreign Correspondents' Club and hosted

That’s what people say…”

"'I don't need to re-accept his experience here. As for the Prime Minister's property, the latest issue of "Literary Spring and Autumn" gave a detailed introduction. The Prime Minister's book "The Sinking of Neon Islands"... I'm sorry, it's "Neon Islands"

"On the Transformation of the Hong Islands"'"

He paused and smiled: "Everyone, what was my status at that time? Who was the rude person? I believe that reporters, no matter where they come from, are at least knowledgeable gentlemen, so why did the other party

So rude?"

The reporters present were quite confused. Why were they talking about the incident that caused such a fuss in the end that he was forced to resign?

“Today, let’s tell you the story behind it!”

Zhenying Juli, the TV in the tea room is also turned on.

In front of Nobuhiko Horikawa is Tao Chiming, and behind him is Yuta Irie.

When he came in, he accepted Yuta Irie's "symbolic" inspection in the name of safety.

Of course he was polite. Since Tao Zhiming announced that he would buy back the Gate of Heaven to strengthen security, entry and exit of the building must be registered.

What's more, the person you want to enter is Tao Zhiming's house.

The inspection was very polite, more like just a process, and Nobuhiko Horikawa was not crazy enough to actually bring a gun in.

Just as he had judged before coming, it would be useless to think too much. If it were the worst case scenario, would Tao Zhiming be unprepared?

But now he is a man.

He came here for just over ten minutes, talked about his experience in the special search department, and asked some questions tactfully. In fact, he was able to make some judgments.

Before Yuta Irie came in, Nobuhiko Horikawa was still thinking: Did I not give him enough?

But now, the phone calls are no longer needed.

On the way here, his real wife had already called her. How could she, who was far away in the United States, have anything to do with him? On the contrary, he had already made some arrangements for her.

Xiuzi must have noticed something was wrong, and he didn't have time to wait for 2 hours.

This further confirmed his judgment.

So the last why, Horikawa Nobuhiko shouted with a little bit.

I am 30% puzzled, 70% angry, and 90% unwilling.

Why can I bring him so much benefit and have such great existence value in the future? From ability to attitude to actual actions, I have to pay for such a long time... What exactly does he want?

Faced with Horikawa Nobuhiko's questioning, all Tao Zhiming did was turn on the TV.

Then, Nobuhiko Horikawa was confused when he saw these three people attending the press conference.

"Why?" Tao Zhiming asked with a smile without listening to the sound on the TV, "Xiongtai, besides this, is there anything else you want to say?"

Yuta Irie stared closely at the emotional Nobuhiko Horikawa and said quickly: "Toshio, Sayuki, Zhongjun, Ganjun and others reported over there that the car is being followed."

Tao Zhiming leaned forward: "So Horikawa-san, why did you send people to keep an eye on my women, my four headquarters buildings, and the dojo in Kyoto? There should be other targets.
To be continued...
