"Is it a coincidence?" Yuan Ye asked.
"I don't think so. Mr. Yagyu is not the kind of person who rarely attends public events in the past." Utsumi shook his head, "But he will definitely attend some high-level grand occasions that must be attended by people of his level. It’s a 50-50 decision whether he can go to such a banquet, so I said this time it’s just a chance to meet him directly.”
"And there are rumors..."
"What rumors?"
"There is a conflict between the chief and Mr. Yagyu, and there are even rumors that Mr. Yagyu has been placed under house arrest." Utsumi replied, "This is unimaginable to ordinary people. As the chief, Mr. Yagyu suddenly appeared. The people who appeared together with the mysterious Shadow Emperor have always been regarded as the die-hard chief faction. During the expansion period of the Edo Federation, the two were always inseparable, as if they were one person. Their relationship was so good that the gang members at the time would tease them privately. Degree of sexual orientation.”
"Are you saying that Yagyu Gongwang's attendance this time also means to respond to the rumors?"
"I think so."
"Did these rumors spread recently?"
"Yes, no more than a week at most."
"That would be interesting." Yuan Ye smiled. The fact that he could receive the mission from the chief was enough to prove that the information about the discord between the two was definitely not false. The chief had specifically asked an "amateur" like him to help with the investigation. It was obvious that This is because I don’t want to make the matter a big deal, otherwise I can just force her into the palace, so why go through such a big detour?
Under this premise, there are rumors circulating, no matter where they are leaked from, it is quite intriguing.
"Forget it, this is not my business, so don't think about it too much." Yuan Ye shook his head and gave up meaningless thinking, "Which force is the organizer of the dinner?"
"The Kujo family."
"...That's a coincidence." Yuan Ye smiled noncommittally, "What happened at the meeting recently?"
"Baishui seems to have another idea recently. There have been several conflicts with our people near the border between the two jurisdictions. Many people on our side have been injured." Neihai replied, "When I asked Baishui, they also found various excuses. , with the attitude of wanting to drive our forces out of the wealthy neighborhoods on the border and create a fait accompli before negotiating."
"It shouldn't be. Didn't I defeat them last time?" Yuan Ye was a little confused.
"The specific reason is unknown." Utsumi analyzed, "But it is most likely because the fiscal year summary meeting is about to be held, and the Baishui group hopes to gain more support, so they try to occupy our territory and then use it as a threat. This is a common tactic in exchange for our support at the convention for issues they want to advance."
"But it just so happens that Baishui's provocation now provides a perfect excuse. I will take action." Yuan Ye said calmly, "It is absolutely unacceptable to hand over the population data of our jurisdiction, but it is not necessarily the case for others."
"We can also take the opportunity to show our goodwill to the Kujo family." Yuanye said to himself and made a decision, "If what the old man said is true, the Kujo family has indeed identified me, then we still have to show it. , otherwise hanging around all the time will make the relationship stalemate. I can’t completely offend a big force now.”
"Notify the Kujo family that I request a meeting." Genya opened the door of the conference room, "Then give me a list of issues and projects related to the Kujo family in the recent meeting, and I will see if I can use this information. We need to exchange some resources back, after all, the recent financial situation is indeed not very optimistic."
"I'll prepare immediately." Utsumi said seriously, "Please take the trouble."
"It's nothing, this is what I, the leader, should do."
Entering the conference room, the person who provided the previous Mewtwo was already on standby, and he was an acquaintance.
"Sit down, Takayama." Yuanye sat down directly and ordered Shinya Takayama, who was a little stiff due to nervousness, "I'm sorry to disturb your rest. I just want to know something. Did you find this Mewtwo by accident? "
Takayama Shinya sat down straight like a robot. He did not expect that a piece of information he submitted casually would attract such attention from Yuanye and call him over in the middle of the night.
"Yes, I have a hobby of going to the black Mewtwo store to rent some more exciting Mewtwo to watch." Takayama Zhenya hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tell the truth, "Before I went on a mission two days ago, I randomly picked out I bought a copy of the zombie-like Mewtwo that had just been put on the shelves and found out that it was not a zombie but a person without walls, so I handed it over to the Intelligence Department."
The Man without a Wall is indeed very close to the traditional zombie image, but you can still see the difference if you look closely, let alone the Black Dragon Society after being attacked by the Man without a Wall.
"Did someone recommend this Mewtwo to you?" Yuan Ye asked.
"No, I picked it randomly." Takayama Shinya quickly replied.
"Did you feel strange or disharmonious when you got this Mewtwo?" Yuanye asked, "For example, someone was staring at you? Has the environment of the store changed?"
"The environment is the same as when I went to that store before. It has not changed." Takayama Shinya recalled, "There is really no strange feeling."
"...I understand." Yuan Ye pondered for a while and said, "I have nothing else to ask, but I hope you won't take a vacation these days and stay at the headquarters. There may be places where you are needed."
"There is no problem at all." Takayama Shinya replied seriously, "As long as you give your orders, leader, it doesn't matter if I die."
"No, I remember you have a younger sister who just entered middle school, right? It's not easy to take care of your younger sister when your parents leave. As for your younger sister, you have to live well." Yuanye He stood up and patted Takayama Shinya on the shoulder, "Your salary this month will be calculated as double overtime wages. Remember to go to the Finance Department to update the information when you have time. Go back and rest now."
After saying that, Yuanye left the conference room.
On the way to the underground garage, Yuan Ye told Utsumi: "Pay attention and see if there will be any similar information sent to us in the next two days, but don't take the initiative to collect it."
Utsumi is a smart man and instantly understood what Yuanye meant: "What does the leader mean by saying there is something wrong with this information?"
"I'm not sure yet." Yuanye nodded, "I suspect someone wants to draw our attention to that custom shop."
"Understood, I will arrange it." Utsumi replied.
The two of them walked all the way to the underground garage. Yuanye asked Utsumi to wait for a while, then drove off on his own.
An hour later, Yuan Ye returned to the Black Dragon Building on a completely different motorcycle and handed Utsumi a heavy suitcase.
Utsumi opened the suitcase and found that it was filled with information.
"The population data of the Baishui Society." Yuan Ye said calmly, "Although it is only part of it, it should be enough. Can you help me organize it into an electronic version?"
