This is a French restaurant located in the heart of Ginza. It is very famous in Tokyo and is a Michelin three-star restaurant.
At this time, the chef of this restaurant was frying steak in the open kitchen, and the aroma was wafting from the scene.
At several dining tables facing the kitchen, Xiao Ran and David were enjoying dinner, as well as Turner and others, as well as two beauties, Xu Lin and Wang Jue.
Behind them and on both sides were several sturdy security team members and CIA agents. They were all on high alert, watching the surrounding movements vigilantly.
Although they had put away their assault rifles and submachine guns, almost everyone on the street knew where they were coming from and knew these guys were absolutely not to be messed with.
The other guests dining in the restaurant were all eight feet away from Xiao Ran and the others, and everyone's eyes were filled with fear and curiosity.
While eating, these guys secretly looked at Xiao Ran and the others.
Some people took out their mobile phones before and tried to secretly take photos. After being warned by CIA agents, they suddenly became more honest.
A few of the timid guys simply got up and left here, fearing that Chi Yu would be harmed.
While Xiao Ran and the others were enjoying the French meal, they were also watching the live TV program.
What is being broadcast live on TV is the inauguration ceremony of the new president of the United States.
As the time for the inauguration gets closer, the scene at the White House becomes more and more lively.
All the media reporters who rushed to the White House for interviews have entered the White House lawn, waiting for the inauguration ceremony and the presidential power transfer ceremony to begin.
Unlike previous U.S. presidential inaugurations, today's presidential inauguration has far fewer guests, and the security procedures are several times more.
The areas inside and outside the White House and nearby neighborhoods were tightly guarded by military and police officers armed with live ammunition, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
Xiao Ran looked at the live broadcast on TV, then smiled and whispered:
"Turner, the new president is about to take office. Will the change of regime have any adverse impact on you?"
"More importantly, will it have any impact on our cooperation?"
After the words fell, Turner couldn't help but fell silent.
David, who was sitting next to Xiao Ran, also looked thoughtful.
As for the others, they were sitting relatively far away, but could not hear the conversation between them.
After thinking for a moment, Turner gently shook his head.
"Don't worry about this, Sean, the new president will not affect our cooperation."
"CIA is a relatively independent system. After the new president takes office, the position of director is likely to be changed."
"But no matter who becomes the director of the CIA, he can't do without us people. We are the backbone of the CIA."
"If the new director wants to secure his position, he must take care of our interests. There is no doubt about this."
"Otherwise, his orders will not go out of Langley..."
Hearing this, Xiao Ran and David immediately looked at each other and smiled.
Xiao Ran nodded slightly, and then continued:
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved and we can continue to cooperate."
"I called you from Osaka to Tokyo this time because I want you to investigate..."
Next, he introduced the situation in a low voice and explained the purpose of calling Turner and the others to come to Tokyo.
For guys like Turner, nothing was off limits as long as there was plenty of money to be made.
The most important thing that Xiao Ran lacks is US dollars, so the two parties naturally hit it off!
After a while, he had finished introducing the situation.
Without any hesitation, Turner immediately nodded and accepted the new task.
Next, they continued to enjoy their dinner, laughing and chatting.
At this moment, Anthony suddenly came over to report.
"Sean, two senior police officers from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department are here. They want to see you."
"One of the guys is the head of the Criminal Investigation Division and wants to know what happened at the izakaya before."
"In addition to them, there are two government officials, one from the Tokyo City Government and the other from the Japan National Police Agency."
"Those two guys have the same purpose. They both want to see you and discuss something with you."
"One more thing, the president and chairman of the Sumiyoshi-kai have already arrived at the izakaya just now."
"We are currently under investigation by the police there, and there is nothing unusual!"
Hearing this, Xiao Ran and the others chuckled.
"The Japanese responded very quickly. Some people may not be able to sit still!"
"David, go deal with the Japanese outside the door."
"You can tell them that I won't see them tonight. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow!"
"I can give them one night and hope they can come up with a result that satisfies me."
"Special statement: I hope those young women who were kidnapped and trafficked appear before the media alive and receive appropriate compensation!"
"Otherwise, I will send the relevant videos to the major news media, including the list of politicians who have colluded with the Sumiyoshi Society, engaged in massive corruption and bribery, and acted as collaborators."
Xiao Ran said with a sneer, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Before he finished speaking, David stood up.
"No problem, Sean, leave it to me, I will take care of it."
With that said, he left his seat and followed Anthony out of the restaurant.
Turner, who was sitting aside, was stunned.
He didn't know that Xiao Ran had an explosive video in his hand. When Xiao Ran introduced the situation before, he didn't mention the video.
In a moment, Turner was awake.
The next moment, this guy immediately said:
"Hill, you and David go together to deal with the Japanese outside and serve as translators."
"After we get out, show our identities."
"Tell the Japanese that we have intervened in this matter. If they have any questions, they can come to us."
"OK"
Hill nodded in response, then stood up and followed David towards the door.
This guy is an agent of the CIA's Tokyo branch and is proficient in Japanese. He happened to show up at this time.
After watching David and the others leave, Xiao Ran smiled softly and continued to enjoy the food in front of him.
Not long after, David and the others returned to the restaurant.
The Japanese police and politicians who came to the door could not even get in and were blocked outside.
As for the result, there is no need to ask!
After returning to the restaurant, David introduced the situation in a low voice.
He relayed what Xiao Ran said to the Japanese outside and asked the Japanese police to investigate.
Since they have the video of Nishikutaro and other scumbags confessing, and the endorsement of the US military headquarters in Japan and the CIA, they have no worries about what tricks the Japanese will play.
As for the tricks of distorting facts and framing, it is even more impossible!
After a while, Xiao Ran and the others finished their dinner, got up and left the French restaurant.
After coming out of the restaurant, everyone glanced at the izakaya in unison.
At this time, the location of the izakaya was cordoned off by the police and an investigation was launched.
The numerous Sumiyoshikai scumbags who originally gathered at the entrance of the izakaya were all dispersed by the police and could only stay behind the cordon to watch the excitement.
There were also many people gathered outside the French restaurant where Xiao Ran and the others were dining, including some Sumiyoshi-kai scumbags.
In addition to these scum, there were also many guys and media reporters who came to watch the fun.
The Tokyo police naturally did not dare to neglect and had already set up a cordon at the entrance of the French restaurant to prevent another fire or other accident.
As Xiao Ran and the others appeared, there was a commotion at the door of the restaurant.
The onlookers gathered outside the cordon were all curious and kept looking at Xiao Ran and the others.
Many Sumiyoshi-kai scum mixed in the crowd stared at them with blood-red eyes, and everyone's eyes were full of humiliation and anger.
However, these guys don't dare to act rashly, it is tantamount to seeking death!
As for the media reporters who heard the news, they were all extremely excited.
They were not willing to let go of this opportunity, so they started asking questions loudly at the top of their lungs.
"Good evening, Mr. Sean, I am a reporter from the "Yomiuri Shimbun" and I am very happy to interview you."
"Excuse me, what is the purpose of your visit to Japan this time? Have you discovered any unknown treasures in Japan?"
"Why did you conflict with the Sumiyoshi-kai members? Can you tell us about the situation?"
A beautiful reporter asked loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, another male reporter in his thirties continued to ask in awkward English:
"Good evening, Mr. Sean, I am a reporter from NHK TV station. Welcome to Tokyo."
"We just received news that three Sumiyoshi-kai members were shot and killed in the izakaya where you and the Sumiyoshi-kai clashed!"
"Excuse me, were you the ones who shot the three Sumiyoshi-kai members? Can you explain?"
In addition to these two media reporters, other reporters also rushed to ask questions loudly, lest they miss this opportunity.
But when these guys asked questions, they all avoided the topic of the US military headquarters in Japan and the CIA, as if Turner and the others had never appeared!
Obviously, these media reporters have been warned and know what to ask and what not to ask!
Xiao Ran glanced at these media reporters, then smiled and said loudly:
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, friends from the media, I'm Sean, nice to see you all here."
"Yes, we did have some conflicts with the Sumiyoshi Association just now, and some members of the Sumiyoshi Association were shot dead on the spot by my security personnel during the conflict!"
"The cause of this conflict was that some scumbags from the Sumiyoshi-kai kidnapped and robbed the sisters of one of my friends and forced them to accompany and entertain guests in an izakaya."
"The two girls who were kidnapped are international students at the University of Tokyo. They are ignorant and accidentally fell into the trap of some scumbags from the Sumiyoshi Society!"
"Luckily, they happened to run into us when they were trying to escape from that sinful izakaya."
"They are my friend's sisters. Now that I have met them, there is no reason to ignore them. This is how a series of conflicts started!"
Not surprisingly, his words directly detonated the scene, causing a cry of exclamation.
"Wow! It turns out that the Sumiyoshi-kai guys kidnapped and robbed the female international students first, but ended up kicking them onto the iron plate. They really deserved it!"
"I've been to the Sumiyoshi-kai izakaya, and there are indeed many beautiful escort girls there. It seems that those escort girls are also victims. It's unbelievable!"
Those who shouted out in surprise were ordinary passers-by who did not understand the situation.
Some guys who knew about the situation in that izakaya, as well as those Sumiyoshi-kai scum mixed in the crowd, were all silent!
Through Xiao Ran's words, people finally understood the cause of the previous conflict, and their perceptions changed accordingly.
At this moment, Xiao Ran's voice came out again.
"Regarding this matter, everyone can pay attention to the Tokyo Police's report. I believe the Tokyo Police will disclose the truth soon."
"This may be breaking news. I can only say so much about this matter at the moment. Let's see what the Tokyo police do next!"
After speaking, he waved to the many media reporters present, and then led Xu Lin and the others towards several bulletproof SUVs parked on the roadside.
In the blink of an eye, they were all in the car.
The motorcade started immediately and drove forward slowly, returning to the hotel.
The crowd of onlookers and media reporters gathered at the entrance of the restaurant were still discussing enthusiastically.
Many Sumiyoshi-kai members in the crowd were gnashing their teeth and feeling an ominous feeling that a catastrophe was about to happen!
In addition, some guys in the crowd quickly took out their mobile phones and reported the situation here to all parties.
What Xiao Ran just said to the media reporters spread to the ears of many people in an instant.
After listening to the report, some of the guys suddenly cursed loudly and angrily, while some others laughed loudly with gloating!
