"Are you thinking that even if you leave the family, you can still live a good life?" Yukinoshita Yono half-squinted his eyes, "Then, you may be able to do so, but we don't think you can live a good life. .”
"What do you mean?" Yukinoshita Yukino had a vague premonition of something bad.
"This afternoon, one of the new buildings built by our family suddenly collapsed, killing sixty-seven residents." Mrs. Yukinoshita said this matter in a plain and direct tone, as if the collapsed building did not belong to their family. Same, "In addition, a total of thirty-two offline industries were violently destroyed by street gangsters. The three joint-stock companies all encountered varying degrees of economic impact. Your father was also suspended by Congress for investigation due to the building collapse incident. Even our shares in Sobu High School are facing exclusion.”
"Why, how could this happen?" Yukinoshita Yukino didn't know how she should feel when facing this news.
Even if she doesn't understand much about her own industry, she still knows exactly what this series of events means. The mere fact that Senator Yukinoshita may lose his status as a member is no less than a disaster.
"Of course there is someone behind the scenes." Councilor Yukinoshita sneered twice, "The quality of the buildings contracted by our family did not cut any corners. This is the reputation that a century-old family deserves. We went to the site in the afternoon. The traces left behind are clearly the traces of high explosives blasting, and what’s even more ridiculous is that until now, we don’t know who is targeting our family.”
"..."
Yukinoshita Yukino didn't know what she should say.
Although the family's restrictions made her feel suffocated, when it all really disappeared, she suddenly realized that she was not ready to be completely independent.
"Yukino." Mrs. Yukinoshita's tense expression suddenly softened. "Do you know who is dealing with our family? In the whole of Japan, who can push us to this point without showing up. That day's banquet took up more than half of the ballroom... Even if you don't want to tell us what happened that day, you can always tell us who you offended."
In Yukinoshita Yukino's memory, it had been a long time since she heard her mother's voice with such a tone.
She suddenly discovered that the mother she had always been afraid of, who was many times more powerful than her sister, did not seem to be able to face everything with strength.
"Yukino!" Yukinoshita Yono suddenly shouted loudly, "Do you think it's as simple as going bankrupt now? If we are accused of cutting corners and causing the death of sixty-seven residents, it will not only be our father and Mother, even I can only spend the rest of my life in prison. No, my mother and I may lead to a more tragic future. Even you will not be spared. The filth and darkness in a wealthy family are definitely beyond your imagination. .”
Yukinoshita Yukino's body trembled.
The corpses she saw that day and the corpses she saw today were constantly intertwined in front of her eyes. She finally realized that this was no longer a game in school, but a struggle in which either you died or I died.
"I really don't know." Yukinoshita Yukino took a slow and deep breath, "There was a person at the banquet that day who said he wanted to deal with me, but he was already dead. He died in front of me. People from the Shen family killed Got him."
Later, Yukinoshita Yukino told everything that happened that day.
Mrs. Yukinoshita and Representative Yukinoshita looked at each other.
Although they had anticipated many possibilities, they did not expect that it would be like this. During the high-level banquet that day, a guest was killed by the host on the spot. No wonder Yukinoshita Yukino looked like that when he came back that day. I thought there was some discordant party going on there, so my daughter just couldn't stand it.
"The person who died must be the head of the Fukuoka family." Mrs. Yukinoshita seemed to be asking, but also seemed to be talking to herself.
"Probably, I was still wondering why the Fukuoka family has been frantically transferring capital these days, and even the head of the family is dead. According to the wealthy family's methods, the next step for the Shen family should be to eradicate the roots." Representative Yukinoshita affirmed himself Wife's guess.
"But, father, mother, if this is the case, all the other families may take action against us because of that game." Yukinoshita Yono's brows were even deeper than before.
Sometimes, the truth is more cruel than speculation. If only one family is targeting them, then the Yukinoshita family may not have any hope of making a comeback. But if all the remaining eleven wealthy families take action, it will be impossible to even think about it. All hope of the family escaping was lost immediately.
"Indeed, we are the weakest among all the players, so it is natural that we will be targeted first." Senator Yukinoshita sighed.
A wealthy family will not play a game of waiting for you to grow up. Among all the wealthy families, only the Yukinoshita family is the local leader in Chiba, and they are the most insignificant. Compared to Daisuke Kosaka, who was personally invited by the head of the Shen family, they are just asking for help. The Yukinoshita family, who was brought in just because a seven or eight-year-old lady fell in love, was like an eyesore. No one wanted to be bitten by a mosquito when they were waiting for someone to fight to the end.
"If we had known this news two or three days earlier, we could have used this gaming opportunity to bring together enough small families to unite, but now it is too late..." Mrs. Yukinoshita also shook her head.
"That's right." Yukinoshita Harano nodded helplessly, "Now that I think about it, the reason why we took action now is to set aside three days to see our reaction."
Yukinoshita Yukino gritted her teeth. Although her family did not say it directly, she had already understood the underlying meaning of this sentence. It was all her fault. It was she who hid the truth from her family and missed the precious life. Self-rescue incident.
Do we really want to see this family completely torn apart? Yukinoshita Yukino thought about the power she got today, but——
What role can that kind of pure violence play?
Mrs. Yukinoshita suddenly stood up, "Go and change quickly, now! Now! Now!"
"Are you leaving Japan?" Yukinoshita Yukino suddenly felt a little hope in her heart. Maybe she could use the power of magic to leave Japan safely with her family.
"Leaving Japan? That's impossible." Senator Yukinoshita also slowly stood up, "There are definitely a lot of people ambushing outside our home and watching our movements closely. If it is really for that Game, then our probability of successfully escaping from Japan is zero, and the combined power can easily drive even the army."
army? Hearing these two words, Yukinoshita Yukino swallowed the words that were on her lips.
