Chapter 101 – Episode 14. Mimata Chieri
Ms. Jinmija moved from her apartment to a mansion using part of Taira Saburo’s inheritance and the money she had saved herself.
In Japan, unlike Korea, apartments had a slightly shabby feel. In fact, she said, an apartment in Korea is a condominium in Japan, and an apartment in Japan is a two- or three-story apartment complex made of lightweight steel or wood rather than concrete. The houses with multiple people living on the second floor that appear in Japanese animations and dramas were apartments in Japan.
Up until this time, I had been living in an apartment, and that was because Ms. Jin Mi-ja had saved money to send me to college and my future wedding, and Taira Saburo had sent me money every month, and I had been saving my own money in a bank account instead of investing it in places to buy things. It was because. Before I was possessed, I didn’t know that, so I thought that my family living in a shabby place was poor, so I didn’t study in the first place. When my mom found out, it was when I was in my third year of high school, and she said she regretted it so much.
When I joined the Taira Group Talent Development Center and the money I had saved as a student loan became useless and Taira Saburo died and I received her inheritance, I used that money to move from an apartment to a mansion. Maybe that’s why it didn’t feel like home to me. Because it is not the house I have lived in since I was born. My mom moved when I was living at the Human Resources Development Center, so she only came twice.
“Oh! “You moved to a nice place?”
“I think this might be the best neighborhood in Edogawa Ward?”
Kazuhiro and Kiyohira said a word as they got off. These guys were also coming to their new house for the first time in their social life, so they looked at their surroundings in wonder. I heard that there is a neighborhood like this in Edogawa-ku.
Edogawa-ku, along with Adachi-ku and Katsushika-ku, is called one of the three working-class wards, and although it is a typical neighborhood in Tokyo where the working class lives, it is still a wealthy village in its own right, where Mrs. Jin Mi-ja moved. The mansion was in that neighborhood.
We each went up to the house carrying a gift. Mrs. Jin Mi-ja’s house was on the 8th floor. I got her key from her mom in advance, so I opened the door with her key without ringing the bell, and when I went in, I saw Mrs. Jin Mi-ja sitting on her sofa, dressed up in her clothes, watching TV. It seemed like she was already dressed, perhaps because it was getting closer to our appointment time.
“Mom~!”
“Mother!”
“It’s been a while, Ryuta’s mother.”
“Are you here?”
When we came in, Mrs. Jin Mi-ja smiled and welcomed us. She hugged Kiyohira and Kazuhiro, and gave me a pat as well.
“Happy birthday, Mom.”
“Here’s your gift, Ryuta’s mother!”
“I picked it with her girlfriend.”
When I gave a gift, you and I both gave gifts. Kiyohira said she was trying to go on a supply offensive and that she had been scouring American outlets for clothes that would look good on Ms. Jin Mi-ja. She says she just put together all the clothes she thought she would look good in, so she ended up with 20.
Kazuhiro asked Umi Kagawa to choose a gift together, and what they chose was a luxury wallet. I personally liked it because it had a similar color to the luxury bag I chose and it felt like it matched well.
“Thank you so much. You’re all grown up. “My sons.”
It was a simple statement, but he seemed very touched when his son, whom he had raised so far, and his friends, whom he had cared for since middle school, grew up well and gave him a gift on his birthday. Kazuhiro and Kiyohira seemed to be moved by Jinmija’s words, “My sons.” After that, we chatted for a while while evaluating each gift, and then went out as the dinner reservation time neared.
The restaurant I made a reservation for was a meat restaurant called Haga (河家), or Kawaka as it is pronounced in Japanese, and it was quite a luxurious place. We were shown to our reserved room and sat down. Mrs. Jin Mi-ja sat in the innermost row, Kazuhiro and Kiyohira sat on either side, and I sat closest to the door.
We each ordered our favorite parts. Mom ordered sirloin, Kazuhiro ordered beef tongue, and Kiyohira ordered pork belly, saying he ate a lot of beef in America. Lastly, I ordered ribs.
Soon the meat came out and we watched the staff grill it. The employee who grilled the meat was a female employee, and I felt like I had seen it somewhere before. It’s my first time seeing you, but I feel like I’ve seen you before… Is this déjà vu?
We enjoyed the meat grilled by the female employee. Since there were three large men, we added meat several times. We ate while chatting happily. Kazuhiro told her mother about my slut story without her noticing, but her mother just coolly told her that if she got pregnant, she would take responsibility. Taira Saburo also took responsibility by sending in his own living expenses, so that probably means he should do that.
“Would you like to eat soybean paste stew after a long time?”
“I have soft tofu stew! “I really wanted to eat it while I was in America.”
“I like cold noodles.”
“I’m keeping up with what you’re eating. I feel like my stomach is going to explode right now, so I’m going to stop eating.”
Mrs. Jin Mi-ja rubbed her stomach and said she would stop eating, and we, who were not yet full, ordered our own food. After ordering and waiting for a while, the door opened and an employee came in.
However, the employee who came in now was not the employee who had been delivering food until then. They were both sturdy men, pretending to carry food when they suddenly took something out of their apron pockets and pointed it at us.
Holy shit, it was a gun!
“Bow!”
My body reacted faster than I expected, blocking the front of the table, spreading my arms and putting my body in front of the table. As the emergency came, I felt like the world was moving slowly, and I saw another person standing in front of me.
The person blocking my path was the female employee who had been grilling our meat up to this point. The female employee also took out her pistol and started firing back.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
I was unable to come to my senses due to the combination of the female employee who stumbled after being shot and the gun that was not hit by the female employee continuing to fire until the end, the feeling of a gun being lodged in my body, the sparks of the shooting, and the tremendous noise of the shooting. What was keeping me awake more than anything was worrying about my mother and two friends behind me. No matter how many people are blocking your path, if you are unlucky you could get shot.
The gunshots died down, two sturdy men fell, and the female employee in front of me also fell. I was hit by a few bullets, but regeneration had already started, so I wasn’t too worried. I looked back.
It was fortunate. All three survived without being shot because they were hiding under the table. I was moved without knowing how Kazuhiro and Kiyohira hugged and protected their mother tightly from both sides. When the gunfire stopped, Ms. Jin Mi-ja shook off Kazuhiro and Kiyohira and came towards me, crying like crazy.
“Son! Are you okay? Oh my god, look at this blood… !”
“Are you okay. It all passed by. Look, it’s clean.”
I lifted up my clothes and showed my scars. The wound had faded and there was only a lot of blood, but it looked fine.
“More than that… !”
After confirming that my mother and friends were safe, I approached the female employee who was lying down in front of me. Surprisingly, the female employee was alive.
When I touched her body, I saw that she was wearing a bulletproof vest. So the bullet did not hit the critical point. However, he had been hit by a bullet in his shoulder and arm and was bleeding profusely.
“Call 119 quickly!!”
I shouted to Kizuhiro and pressed his shoulder and arm where the bullet had hit. The female employee smiled faintly when she saw me like that.
“I’m not dying, junior…”
“Yes?”
Junior? After hearing the female employee’s words, I gently pulled her black hair and found Chieri Mimata’s orange hair coming out from under her wig. Looking closely, I noticed that her face seemed to have been made up and that she had changed her height with her high-heeled shoes to make herself unrecognizable.
“Senior, why… ?”
“It was the chairman’s order. Watch over your junior and step forward immediately if there is danger…”
Just as I expected, Chieri Mimata seems to be Chairman Taira Danzo’s direct agent or something. As I continued to talk to Chieri Mimata to keep her conscious, an ambulance came and took Chieri Mimata away. You won’t die, right? Still, since he is an agent directly under the chairman, I will not let him die.
The police came soon after the ambulance took Chieri Mimata away, but when a lawyer from the Taira Group who came with them came and exchanged a few words with me, they just disposed of the body and left without even opening a word to me. Indeed, the power of the Tyra Group was enormous. They just left without even investigating.
“First of all, the chairman will tell the story tomorrow at his home. “You must be shocked, so take a break today.”
“Yes. Thank you for your help.”
I said hello to the lawyer and went home with my mom and friends. As I went home, I kept my senses as sharp as possible to see if anyone was following me, but no one followed me.
“What’s the matter?”
Kazuhiro asked in a heavy atmosphere.
“I don’t know either. I wonder what happened…”
Since I didn’t know anything yet, I had no choice but to answer like this. Mom seemed to be surprisingly mentally strong, but on the outside she seemed fine. Kiyohira also had time to practice martial arts, so she seemed calm, but only Kazuhiro looked a little anxious.
“Once we find out what’s going on…”
I will definitely find out the culprit of this incident, which I personally investigated by asking Grandpa Taira Danzo.
“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure this doesn’t happen again.”
Okay. To prevent something like this from happening again, I will kill the person who did this.
