Sitting in the Rolls-Royce, Murphy looked at the scenery along the road. He felt inexplicably that Tokyo... seems to be a bit hot recently...
After about twenty minutes' journey, the Rolls-Royce drove into a luxurious manor.
After getting out of the car, Murphy and Logan could see countless bodyguards standing around the manor, looking intently.
"So many people?" Logan asked.
"Because there is a possibility of being attacked, kidnapped, assassinated, etc. at any time." Xiao Xuexi said.
"By whom?"
"Japanese mobs or Japanese gangsters or something like that..." Xiao Xuexu said: "They are growing stronger, while the power of the government is weakening..."
"What?" Logan asked confused. He didn't understand the state of Japan at all.
Mo Fei suddenly smiled and said: "Japan is a country that is good at everything, but it lacks one thing - hope!"
"What do you mean?" Logan frowned.
"This country advocates a permanent employment system and a seniority-based system. Employees are never allowed to be fired, and wages are increased based on seniority. This brought huge benefits to Japan in the early stages of its development, but now it has become a drag on Japan.
As a result, the entire country has completely lost its vitality and turned into a zombie society. Probably your common sense tells you that Japan has not had any economic development for 20 years. If you want to travel in this country, retire or something, it is a very good place.
place, but you have to fight hard here... I'm sorry, there is no place for you here, the suicide rate in this country ranks first among developed countries in the world!" Murphy said.
Xiao Xuexu glanced at Mo Fei in surprise and said: "I didn't expect that Mo Fei would still study economics now? Yes, it is indeed as Mr. Mo Fei said. There are big problems in Japanese society, and big conglomerates occupy
With too many social resources, ordinary people basically have no chance to start a successful business and can only become workers in large companies. And these workers basically cannot get the treatment they want and begin to despair, so society gradually
Start moving."
Murphy smiled. What he studied at the beginning was economics. The teacher even analyzed the problem of Japan's economic development stagnating for twenty years. It was not because of external shocks such as the Hiroshima Agreement, but simply because of the rigidity of the entire Japanese system and the height of society.
Maturity and step-by-step transformation have resulted in no room for the emergence of new things, so the Japanese people can only cling to the old things, cling to the old things, cling to the old things, and gradually die.
"But the Japanese government is doing nothing?" Logan asked.
"There are many things that you can't do if you want to do it!" Murphy shrugged and said: "The Japanese government must have seen that Japan has been standing still for twenty years, and various social contradictions have arisen.
But we can’t find a solution. We can only rely on time to find historical opportunities. Maybe at some point, the Japanese government does nothing, and the entire society becomes more energetic?"
Xiao Yukio sighed and said: "For example, Yashida Industry has also seen the common problems in society and is willing to make certain retreats. However, Japan is too big and not one person can solve the entire problem. This probably requires the government and large consortiums.
, the people, and the three parties work together to see the hope of a solution. However, there are conflicts between the consortia, conflicts between the consortia and the government, and conflicts between the consortium and the people... So probably the government, the big consortium, and the people
Between us, we can never work together to do one thing.”
While talking, the three of them arrived at the gate of the manor.
The three people walked over, and Logan was stopped. He was surrounded by a group of bodyguards and searched him high and low.
"This is the distinguished guest invited by Mr. Yashida. There is no need to search." Xiao Yukio said hurriedly.
But no one listened to him and continued to attack Logan.
"Oh, why are you only searching me?" Logan raised his hand, pointed at Murphy and said, "Where's that guy? Didn't you see him?"
"Probably between the two of us, you look more like the bad guy!" Murphy said with a smile.
When Logan and Murphy stood together, Murphy looked like a harmless young man, while Logan looked like a wild beast.
But in fact, it was Murphy who blocked their perception of him, preventing them from noticing him at all.
After passing the search, Murphy and Logan entered the courtyard of Yashida Manor. Xiao Xuexi saluted Murphy and said: "Mr. Murphy, Miss, she hasn't come back yet, but I have to take Mr. Logan to see her first."
Master, please wait a moment, I will ask someone to take you to your room to rest."
"Okay, no problem." Mo Fei said nonchalantly.
Before leaving, Murphy smiled secretly at Logan and said, "Logan, you have to be careful!"
"What do you mean by that?" Logan wanted to ask Murphy, but Murphy waved his hand and walked away under the guidance of a maid.
Murphy stayed in his room, eating pastries and fruits brought by the Yashida family's maid, and watching some DVDs in the room to pass the time.
I don't know when it started to rain outside. The fine rain woven a gray curtain between the sky and the earth. The sky was like an ink painting, with different depths and shallower ones, attracting countless reveries.
Suddenly, there were slight footsteps on the floor of Murphy's room, taking small steps.
“Bang bang bang!”
There was a knock on the door.
"Murphy?"
Murphy opened the door to the room. When he saw it, he saw a light purple kimono full of flowers. It was very beautiful. The collar and cuffs were inlaid with gold thread, full of luxury.
Mariko Yashida in kimono.
Her hair was tied back by several hairpins, forming two opposite fan shapes. The bangs were fixed on the top of her head, revealing her smooth forehead. The long hair on both sides of the temples hung naturally in front, but there was no hair on the back of her head.
The tied up hair was spread on her back.
"Mariko, we meet again!" Murphy said with a smile.
In the room, Murphy and Mariko were sitting on the floor.
"I really didn't expect that after seeing each other for years, I would attend your engagement ceremony." Murphy sighed.
Mariko, who was making tea for Murphy, paused and said, "In this world, many things will not go as planned. We will always gradually lose a lot of things."
"Wow, aren't you? You really haven't thought about resisting? This is not like the Yashida Mariko I remember!" Murphy blinked.
In Mo Fei's memory, Mariko was the kind of person who was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She looked weak and could be bullied, but was actually determined on the inside. She was the type of strong woman who would never give up until she achieved her goal.
It is probably impossible for her to accept the arrangement of the Yashida family and marry an ugly man who also spends too much time and money!
"I thought about resisting, but it was too difficult. It was my grandfather's decision. No one in the Yashida family can resist my grandfather's arrangement." Mariko smiled helplessly and said, "When my father married my mother, it was completely
My grandfather's arrangement was not his free will at all."
"How about I elope with you? Go to Yingjiang for fun?" Murphy drank a cup of tea made by Mariko and said, "As long as you are willing to give up your life as a noble lady, although I don't make much money,
If I want to raise one for you, it won’t be a problem.”
"You can't get out of Japan!" Mariko held the tea cup to the tip of her nose, sniffed the fragrance of the tea, took a sip and said: "Maybe you only know that the Yashida Group is huge, but you don't know what kind of power it has.
Ability... Let me tell you this, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department is no different from the subordinates of the Yashida Group. Just one sentence can..."
"Kill me?"
"Almost! Even if you bring me out of Japan safely, Yashida still has a lot of power in North America and can still come to the door and catch me." Mariko shook her head and said: "So I still don't want to do those fearless things.
Struggled."
"So you called me here, really just to let me attend your engagement party?" Murphy said, touching his chin.
"What else?" Mariko raised her head, looked at Mo Fei with a pair of clear water eyes, and said, "I asked you to come because I don't want my life to be arranged, I just want to do it once...
…”
"Uh...what does this mean?" Murphy asked doubtfully.
Mariko didn't speak. She drank the tea in the cup, stood up, and slowly untied the knot in her kimono. The gorgeous kimono gradually slipped off her body, revealing Mariko's crystal-clear skin...
…
"Gulu!" Murphy swallowed. He seemed to remember that although Mariko was indeed his ex-girlfriend, because he came from East Asia and was still in a traditional aristocratic family, he and Mariko were just pure and had no substance.
development of……
…
next.
The manor of the Yashida family was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and guests of extraordinary distinction were arriving in droves.
As far as Murphy is concerned, he doesn't know the Japanese people very well, but he still has some impression of the Japanese Prime Minister...
As expected of the Yashida family!
According to the information collected by Queen Mo Fei, the Yashida family has a history of nearly a thousand years and is one of the main leaders of the Koka ninja. In terms of military force and economic strength, it is no better than the six major consortiums in Japan.
What is the difference between Mitsubishi Foundation, Mitsui Foundation, Sumitomo Foundation, Fuji Foundation, Kanyin Foundation and Sanwa Foundation.
Everyone in Japan knows that the Yashida Group is the largest biological and medical company in Japan, but they have no idea about the other hidden forces of the Yashida family and that they are the main leaders of Koga.
Murphy and Logan stood together, like two outsiders, watching the interactions between the Yashida family and other Japanese powerful people.
"What did Mariko's grandfather tell you last night? Isn't it just that he was reminiscing with you?" Murphy said jokingly, holding a goblet.
"He wanted me to give him my immortality. For this, he was willing to pay any price, even if he gave me the entire Yashida Group. I didn't expect that after so many years of not seeing him, he had turned into a psychopath!"
Logan smoked a cigar and said speechlessly.
"It's not difficult to understand that there is great terror between life and death. Ants are still alive. Many people will do crazy things in order to extend their lives. What's more, if you can really steal your powers, you will get more than just
It's as simple as extending life, but immortality." Mo Fei said.
"Stop talking about these things, let me ask you, have you ever seen a European woman wearing green clothes in the manor?" Logan asked.
"no, what happened?"
"That woman is the professional doctor of that guy Shilang, but she made me feel very uncomfortable, like a deadly poisonous snake, very dangerous, and my intuition is usually very accurate." Logan frowned and said.
"Is that that woman?" Murphy asked, pointing to a European-American beauty who suddenly appeared at the banquet where people were drinking and drinking.
"Yes, that's her!" Logan looked at the woman, his eyes suddenly condensed.
"Well, it's really not simple. It looks like it has lived for more than a hundred years, and it is full of deadly toxins, but..." Murphy paused.
"But what?" Wolverine was impatient and couldn't stand Murphy's betrayal.
"I see that she has a close affinity with you. Maybe you two will get together sometime?"
"Are you kidding me!" Logan rolled his eyes.
Murphy smiled slightly.
He was not talking nonsense, because that woman was Madame Hydra, Ophelia Sargsyan.
Wolverine was extremely romantic throughout his life, but he only had two official wives, Akihiro Hajime, and the other one was Hydra's lady Ophelia Sarkisian, although Ophelia Sarkisian wore it for him.
The cuckold was no less cuckolded than the cuckold he gave Ophelia Sargsyan.
Lady Hydra Ophelia Sarkisian, a dependent of Sithorn, the god of the underworld, signed a contract with Sithorn, giving her the ability to greatly slow down aging and stay young almost forever.
So Murphy has no plans to deal with Mrs. Hydra for the time being, let alone put a hat on Wolverine. Otherwise, what if Sithorne comes to visit?
In addition to Sithorne's dependents, Ophelia is also a member of Hydra, with a status equal to that of Baron Zemo, Baron Strucker and others.
"Huh?" A look of surprise suddenly appeared on Murphy's face.
"What's wrong?"
"Um, I seem to have met an acquaintance. I'm sorry, but I have to excuse you for a moment."
Murphy left Wolverine and went to a certain place at the banquet. He stood in front of a man in a suit and leather shoes who looked particularly wretched.
"Are you Mr. Mouri Kogoro?"
"Yes, it's me, are you?" The man looked at the polite Murphy, responded politely, and then asked.
"My name is Murphy, and I am Michaela's boyfriend. When I came to Japan this time, she specially asked me to say hello to you." Murphy smiled politely.
As he spoke, Mo Fei unconsciously looked at a little boy wearing blue clothes and big spectacle frames next to Mouri Kogoro. If he guessed correctly, this should be the legendary Shinigami elementary school student.
"Oh, actually I didn't do anything back then, so that girl still remembers me!" Mouri Kogoro touched his head and laughed.
