"Oops, I'm sorry to trouble you. I'll do it." Lu Mingfei quickly took the plate with the coffee cup and looked at him gratefully.
"Arigado! Goodcoffee!" Caesar raised his coffee cup to the girl with a smile on his face. He couldn't understand his Chinese anyway, but for a young man like him, he would never be a commoner girl making cheap instant coffee.
Showing disdain for common people's coffee in front of him.
Lu Mingfei smiled gently. Well, how should I put it? What he saw in front of him really made him feel like he was back in high school. Although he had very little contact with her in his previous life and had no chance to know her age, he could tell that she was
A very young girl, wearing orthodontic braces and black-rimmed glasses, her long hair was combed into a neat ponytail, with a coral red hairpin, and no other decorations on her body.
Sakura does not have any decorations on her body, but Sakura is different from Zhen. Sakura deliberately does not use any decorations to avoid attracting attention, but Zhen is a girl who has not had time to decorate. In the future, she will wear shining necklaces, rings and watches to become blingbling.
But now she only smelled of paper, coffee, cotton and woolen vests...
Lu Mingfei sighed in his heart, saying that he was old. Thinking about it, he was indeed old. Calculating his true age, he didn't know how many years he had lived.
Then he found that his eyes were really staring at Caesar's handsome face.
"Ahem... Let's get down to business, Miss Zhen." Lu Mingfei reminded.
"Ah, oh, yes, it's time to get down to business, I'm sorry..." Zhen immediately retracted his gaze from staring at Caesar and bowed ninety degrees to everyone.
This really can't be blamed on her. She has never seen such a handsome foreign man, and he is really...so handsome, just like the Prince Charming in those idol dramas on TV...
"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't say it. It's nice to drink the common people's coffee here." Caesar said, waving his hand to the girl not to be too nervous. "Although it tastes thin and contains too much sugar, drinking the common people's coffee and chatting is quite relaxing on a rainy day.
"
"We are here to help Miss Zhen solve her problems, not to drink coffee." Yuan Zhisheng said in Japanese.
There was coffee in front of him. He didn't mean to look down on this kind of cheap instant coffee, but he simply didn't have the habit of drinking coffee.
"I'm really embarrassed to ask everyone in my family to come over for such a trivial matter like this... I really don't know what to do."
"Well, tell me." Yuan Zhisheng looked at Sakura, who nodded, took out a pen and paper and started recording.
"The thing is like this, this store was sold by the original owner and turned into a toy store. About a few weeks ago, I came here to work, and the gangs on the street insisted that this store used to pay them protection money.
, we must continue to pay now, if we don’t pay, they will destroy the store.”
"Then I paid before, and I will continue to pay now." Caesar said.
"Really... why not eat minced meat?" Yuan Zhisheng raised his head, "Because the rates have increased, right?"
"Yes, they said it was increased by 15%. The shop owner didn't care about it. I was left to face the gangsters alone."
"As far as I know, your store is the only one on this street that has reflected the increase in protection fees." Sakura said, "If it were a large-scale increase, we would deal with it, but the current fact is that your store has increased it.
"
"Did you do something to offend them?" Sakura stared at Aso Makoto, "This street should be within the sphere of influence of the Nakanoda-gumi of the Kabukicho gang, and that gang has never done anything extraordinary.
matter."
"Ah...how could it be...I've never done anything..." Aso was so frightened by these words that she trembled all over. She was just an ordinary high school dropout, and she was also criticized by teachers in school for the reason of keeping to herself.
Praise, why would you do something related to gangsters?
"Really?" Sakura gave her a cold look.
Aso quickly lowered his head, this woman was too tough.
"Miss Sakura, there is no need to embarrass a girl." Caesar spoke up for her, "You will know what the situation is when the little gangster comes and you ask him. This girl doesn't look like a random person.
people."
"Then do as Mr. Caesar said." Sakura regained her momentum, took a step back and stood beside Yuan Zhisheng, just like she had always done.
When she is not showing herself, she is like a transparent person, always standing next to Yuan Zhisheng with her head lowered.
So a lot of people in this toy store started doing their own things.
At 7:30, Hisashi Noda came over on time carrying a baseball bat.
He first looked to the right, where Aso was doing the accounting at the counter.
In fact, she was pretending to do the accounting because she really didn't know what to do and couldn't get along with the big shots in the family.
"You're still on duty tonight." He greeted me like an acquaintance.
"Huan...welcome."
Noda Hisako just wanted to say "good evening" to her with a smile, or "how are you doing today" or something like that, but as soon as he took a step forward, an arm was wrapped around his neck.
"Is this this guy?" Caesar said, half pulling and half dragging Noda Hisashi to sit down at the coffee table.
"No...that's right."
"This...um...what do you call me?" Yuan Zhisheng asked.
"Noda-gumi's Kotobuki!" Noda-gumi said loudly, as if to embolden himself. Looking at the dark group of people opposite the coffee table, he couldn't help but panic.
But when he thought that he was a member of the Noda group, his momentum became stronger again.
The Noda-gumi is not a very large gang in Kabukicho, but it is famous for its bravery. Since childhood, Noda Hisashi has watched the gang of brothers with snake patterns embroidered on their sleeves appearing on the streets. Wherever they go, there will be a natural flow of people.
Make way for them, their backs are as hard as rocks in the river.
Hisashi Noda felt that the most heroic man in the world was a gangster, so he dropped out of school to follow Kozo, the leader of the Noda Group, who was his cousin. Kozo admired his cousin's ambition very much and handed over all seven stores on his territory.
My cousin takes care of it, and the job is not complicated, just collecting protection fees.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! From that day on, any shopkeepers who see Noda Hisaru’s long white trench coat will bow deeply and say, “You are here, please take care of me.” The business has grown recently.
The protection money is sent to Hisashi Noda's apartment every month without any instructions.
Former classmates all regarded Hisashi Noda as his supporter, and often introduced the cutest girl in the class to Hisashi Noda. Some people said that Kozo intended to stop Hisashi Noda from taking over the Noda group because he felt that his cousin was so courageous at a young age.
But as the saying goes, men are destined to go to the district. The store that originally sold sex toys among the seven stores suddenly closed down. As a result, Noda Hisashi's territory was suddenly reduced to six stores, and the amount of protection fees shrank with it.
The new store was a toy store, and the owner actually refused to pay protection fees. The reason was that the toy store's profits were limited, and it was a newly opened toy store and was still operating at a loss. Moreover, I had never heard that stores dealing with children had to pay protection fees.
of.
Determined to take advantage of this opportunity to establish his authority, Noda Hisashi raised the store's protection fee by 15% and threatened to destroy the store if the protection fee was not paid, letting the store owner know the cost of being rude to the Noda-gumi.
However, the person looking after the store is a girl. It is Noda Hisashi's principle to never attack girls. He likes comics. In the world of comics, a man who holds the hilt of a knife can live an upright life in the world.
A strong man will not attack a girl, and Hisashi Noda is considered a strong man.
By revealing his identity as a gangster, these people shouldn't be able to do anything to him... he thought.
Then he glanced at the man who looked like the leader sitting in the middle of the sofa. On the inside of his shirt, the cyan Yaksha was tearing the evil spirit's body apart.
Caesar threw Dick Tuduo on the table and said, "My young master came out in person and drove all the way here. You are honored."
A black windbreaker with pictures of ghosts and gods painted on the lining. Noda Shou has heard of these people...the law enforcers of our family!
The first time he entered the Noda Group, Brother Tiantang told him that gangsters must have the ambition to be fearless. Even the police do not need to be looked down upon, but there is one type of people who must not be messed with...the law enforcement officers from the same family!
He was shocked and didn't dare to say anything at all. He hadn't figured out what was going on, but he could clearly see the murder weapon in the other person's hand. The black hunting knife was as fierce as a leopard's teeth, and there was a sharp point on the back.
Sawtooth.
He didn't expect that things would get as big as this. He just made a few threats, and didn't really want to increase the protection fee. As long as the shop owner knelt down and said a few nice words, Noda Hisashi would have stepped down. If he really couldn't get it,
He can still make up for it when he makes money in the store.
I didn't expect that this kind of thing would alert our family's law enforcement officers, and five people were dispatched at once. Among the five, there was one with yellow hair and blue eyes! Could it be a foreign mercenary hired by our family?
All kinds of panic exploded in Noda Shou's mind. He couldn't understand the foreign mercenary's words at all, and he only felt that they must be a fierce threat.
"Your name." Caesar shook his shoulders and opened the lapels of his suit, deliberately revealing the picture of the Yasha eater on the lining, looking at Noda Hisaru coldly, and intimidating him with his condescending gaze.
This gorgeous and strict decoration made him get into the role very well, and he now feels that he is a figure in the Japanese underworld.
Sakura acted as a translator and translated it exactly to Noda Hisashi.
"Boss, don't fall into the middle school syndrome." Lu Mingfei reminded him in a low voice.
Yuan Zhisheng said to himself that you are basically born at the same time as the second child, so why don't you talk about the eldest brother and not the second brother? He was too lazy to care about such trivial matters, got up and walked along the container, his eyes glanced at the plastic Luffy, Zuosuke
and Haruhi Suzumiya, and a gunpla as tall as one person in the corner.
Since Sakura is acting as the translator, he has nothing to worry about. Even if Caesar and Lu Mingfei talk nonsense, Sakura will translate it into normal words. A gangster like Noda Hisashi who manages several stores and collects protection fees is completely out of place. For me,
To say that there is no standard procedure for dealing with such people is to scare people away.
"The Noda-gumi in Kabukicho, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo...the future third generation Noda Hisashi is now working with the second generation Noda Kozo..." Noda Hisashi was dejected.
"I don't need to sound like a famous gangster in Shinjuku City. I remember that the Noda-gumi was originally responsible for clearing the sewer pipes in Shinjuku City. After the new drainage system was built, you had nothing to do so you collected protection fees on the street, right?
"Ying said coldly, "A small gang like you is not ranked among my family, but you still dare to increase the rate of protection fees?"
"This store used to pay protection fees to the group, but now that the owner has changed, they no longer pay." Hisashi Noda felt like he was being questioned by the police. "The increase in rates is just talk. Just follow the previous rules.
Everyone is a man of rules."
"I've never heard of toy stores charging protection fees." Sakura said, "Besides, I'm a woman."
"There's not much difference between a toy store and a sex toy store... Anyway, they all sell fun things..." Hisashi Noda said in a low voice.
"Are you still talking?" Sakura slapped the table.
Then Caesar grabbed the Dictado on the table with his backhand. The dark blade flashed like lightning, and the sharp light stopped in front of Noda Shou's neck in the blink of an eye.
Although he didn't understand what the two of them were talking about, Sakura was slamming the table, so they must be unable to reach an agreement.
For matters that cannot be reached, his method is to use Dictator to solve the problem, at least to solve the person who raised the matter.
His throat rolled involuntarily, and large beads of sweat dripped from Noda Hisashi's forehead. The law enforcer was really as ruthless as a ferocious god, and the knife he used seemed to be extremely sharp. The moment the blade scratched his throat, his life was also threatened.
It's time to end it, and go with your dream of becoming a heroic man...
Now he finally realizes how naive he is. No wonder the gangster men in Kabukicho are reluctant to mention their own cadres. Compared with such a ruthless god of death, he is indeed a child who has not grown up. He is so naive that it is ridiculous.
"Please don't use the knife, Mr. Caesar." Sakura said, "It's not time to use the knife yet."
"good."
Caesar withdrew his sword and continued to use his condescending gaze to intimidate Noda Hisashi.
"Boss, you have completely entered the role..." Lu Mingfei smiled awkwardly.
"How old are you?" Sakura asked.
"Born on May 4, 2006, Gemini, dog."
"Not like a Gemini." Xia Mi suddenly interjected, "It looks like a dead Cancer."
Sakura hesitated and translated.
"The rising sign is Cancer, and Venus is also in Cancer. It is indeed a Gemini with a Cancer bias." Hisashi Noda didn't know why the cadres of the family also studied the zodiac signs so well.
He was a member of the zodiac club in junior high school. When asked about his age, it would make girls happy to say this, so he always told his age like this. Just now, he was just too nervous and couldn't help but tell his zodiac sign, Gemini and Dog.
Sakura really didn't want this boring conversation to continue, so she turned to Zhen, "Just to confirm, it was you who complained to me that the Noda group not only wanted to collect protection fees from the toy store, but also increased the rates without authorization?"
"Yes," Zhen said in a low voice, "the store manager said that the store has just opened and is still operating at a loss. It costs money to purchase goods and turn around, and the toy store doesn't make enough money to pay the protection fee. If the gang can't be driven away, the store will be closed.
never mind."
"I just joined the job and I didn't want to lose my job. If I lost my job, I wouldn't be able to earn enough to go to college... so I took the liberty to call for help."
"Such a small matter is not negotiable..." Noda Hisashi said.
A short knife slipped out of Sakura's sleeves, and she stuck the short knife on the back of Noda Shou's neck, "When my family members come, you have no room for negotiation. I think you don't know how serious the mistake you have made is.
The protection fee rates for every street, Kabukicho, and even the entire Shinjuku area are fixed.”
"No one dares to raise rates on this street. Everyone who has mentioned it has died. We don't allow this kind of thing to affect the prosperity of this street, so we usually adopt the most stringent treatment method. In short, this
Things can be big.”
"The treatment we usually use is to pour cement piles and bury them under Tokyo Bay."
"Hey... who said just now that there is no need to use a knife?" Lu Mingfei complained, "I even have to pour a human stake on him now."
