Chapter 435: Chapter 384: Outrage for Subordinates, Eldest Uncle’s Calculation (End of the Month for Monthly Ticket)

"Fire them! They must be fired!"

"If they hadn’t neglected their duty and failed to follow my daughter upstairs, how could she have died?"

Just arriving at the minister’s office, Aoyama Xiu Xin heard a man and a woman questioning through the door.

He snorted coldly and pushed the door open directly.

"Bang!"

The sound of the door opening attracted everyone’s attention.

"Police Chief Aoyama." Minister Nozawa, who had a headache, sighed in relief upon seeing Aoyama Xiu Xin. He had old ties with the Yamamotos, and since they had just suffered the loss of their daughter, he found it difficult to reject them, but letting Aoyama Xiu Xin play the bad guy allowed him to step aside.

Seeing Aoyama Xiu Xin, the Yamamotos’ previously arrogant demeanor suddenly stalled, and their voices stopped abruptly.

After all, his fearsome reputation was well known.

"Minister." Aoyama Xiu Xin first bowed to Nozawa, then looked up, his face expressionless as he stared coldly at the Yamamotos and said, "Mr. Yamamoto and Mrs. Yamamoto, I can understand your grief over losing your daughter, but it is not right to make a scene and take out your anger on unrelated personnel."

"As far as I know, my subordinates were diligent in their duties during Miss Yamamoto’s protection. Today, it was Yamamoto Nai who forcefully instructed them not to follow her and even threatened their employment. What fault lies with them?"

"Fine! Ignoring the facts, even if my daughter was at fault, are those two police officers completely blameless?" Mrs. Yamamoto shouted, her neck stiff with anger.

Mr. Yamamoto also spoke with a stern face, "My daughter is not even 20 this year, still a child. Immature and inevitably a bit willful, but if she is ignorant, aren’t those two police officers the same? Why did they listen to her? Why didn’t they forcefully follow her?"

Aoyama Xiu Xin laughed at the two of them in irritation.

Still a child?

Your daughter has already dabbled in creating kids with some punk!

"Get out!" He spat out the word with shocking brevity.

"You! What kind of attitude is this!" Mr. Yamamoto, both shocked and angry, was seething but dared not confront Aoyama Xiu Xin or even speak harshly. He could only turn his head to Minister Nozawa and question, "Minister Nozawa, are you just going to let your subordinate insult the family of the victim like this?"

Minister Nozawa, both annoyed and helpless, could only insincerely say, "Police Chief Aoyama, mind your tone..."

"Shut the hell up!" Aoyama Xiu Xin shouted, interrupting him, and asked, "Did I ask you to speak?"

Minister Nozawa was completely dumbfounded on the spot.

The Yamamotos were also stunned, their eyes wide with disbelief as if they had seen a ghost.

After snapping back to reality, Minister Nozawa was furious, but before he could erupt, Aoyama Xiu Xin winked at him.

Suddenly understanding, he subdued the anger about to show on his face and gave a helpless smile to the Yamamotos.

See, I can do nothing about him. He doesn’t even respect me, his boss, not to mention you.

"You’ve lost your daughter, and I sympathize, but to vent your anger on my people is wishful thinking! Get out now!" Aoyama Xiu Xin said forcefully.

The Yamamotos’ faces turned pale, looking back and forth between Minister Nozawa and Aoyama Xiu Xin.

"What are you looking at! He can’t control me, even the director can’t! Either find someone with a higher position to press me down, or just get out! Don’t embarrass yourself here." Aoyama Xiu Xin was arrogantly domineering.

"In your words, my daughter died in vain?" Mrs. Yamamoto angrily questioned.

"You could donate her body; that way, it wouldn’t be in vain. I could even apologize for my rudeness just now," Aoyama Xiu Xin said lightly.

"Pah! Dream on!" Mrs. Yamamoto spat, turning her head and storming out.

Although Mr. Yamamoto was extremely reluctant, facing Aoyama Xiu Xin, a man of capability and background, he was powerless and had to leave shamefacedly.

"Phew—" Minister Nozawa sighed in relief, tiredly rubbing his forehead, "Thank goodness you were here, Chief Aoyama, or I would have had another headache."

"Yes, thankfully I was here. If I had been a bit later, I might have lost two capable subordinates for no good reason," Aoyama Xiu Xin said with a smile.

Nakamura Shinichi wouldn’t deceive him. Since he suggested that Minister Nozawa had contemplated sacrificing those two officers to appease the Yamamotos, then it was likely disclosed, which Aoyama Xiu Xin did not appreciate.

Minister Nozawa’s face stiffened slightly, and, somewhat embarrassed, he pursed his lips and explained, "I absolutely didn’t mean that..."

"Minister Nozawa, nothing happened, so it’s easy to speak. But don’t tell me you actually think attending today’s press conference and speaking at the podium was your own doing? Don’t let the brothers working hard below you feel disheartened," Aoyama Xiu Xin bluntly interrupted him and then turned to leave.

He was about to leave the Police Headquarters, with nothing to worry about, and when he returned, it would be to replace the other man, so there was even less need to be concerned.

The silent Nakamura Shinichi turned and followed him.

Minister Nozawa stood still, his face changing like a knocked-over palette of paints, touched with the shame of being exposed for his irresponsibility and angry at being rebuked by his subordinate. He slammed his palm down on the table.

"Idiot! Absolutely disrespectful!"

............

The incident where Aoyama Xiu Xin fiercely confronted Minister Nozawa to protect two subordinates quickly spread. After all, it was hard not to be overheard with so many people coming and going in the hallway.

This made the junior police officers of the investigation division support him even more; who doesn’t appreciate a leader who has their back?

That evening, major TV news segments reported the day’s activities at Fujiu Apartment, and a video of Aoyama Xiu Xin climbing the building barehanded was aired.

It caused a surge of astonishment among the citizens.

Although Aoyama Xiu Xin had already provided plenty of shocks, there was always room for more next time.

Countless lonely housewives thought having an affair with Aoyama Xiu Xin would be very safe, since with his skills, he’d never be caught by their husbands at home.

And even if he were caught, their husbands couldn’t beat him.

In a civilian residence far in Hokkaido, a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing glasses, was also watching television. When he saw the photo of the refined man who had robbed a gold store on the news, he laughed.

He faintly recalled how, just a few days ago, the man had stood before him, pushing up his glasses with an air of confidence and calm determination.

"This is what you said about bringing back enough funds to invest in a joint venture with me within seven days? I’m sorry, perhaps we’ll collaborate in the next life."

The middle-aged man chuckled to himself, glanced back at his son doing homework, and his wife knitting, then picked up his mobile phone and walked outside, ignoring the heavy snow, and dialed a number.

"There’s news I find regrettable and you’d probably find pleasing. My tentative business partner has had a mishap and needs to back out; if you aren’t busy tomorrow, we could meet to discuss things. You’ll handle the construction and sales, and I’ll bring my technical expertise, with earnings split evenly between us. Let’s agree on that then, see you tomorrow, goodnight."

After ending the call, he stood in the snow, staring into the pitch-black night, his thoughts swirling. Aoyama Xiu Xin was indeed a formidable man. Fortunately, such a talented man would only thrive in Tokyo and would not venture to the remote areas of Hokkaido.

At that moment, Aoyama Xiu Xin was attending a family banquet at the Asakai’s home, with everyone gathered around the table, joyous and harmonious.

"Eat more, Xiu Xin, today was really too risky," Mrs. Asakai said, her face showing a trace of fear from the ordeal.

"Hey! Auntie’s cooking is great," Aoyama Xiu Xin complimented as he enjoyed the feast with a smile.

Mrs. Asakai smiled, her face creasing, "You better eat your fill then, or it will be a long while before you can enjoy a home-cooked meal once you’re off to Hokkaido."

"He’s not on a no-vacation lock-down; he can come back to Tokyo anytime," Asai Youki remarked dryly.

Sitting beside Asai Zexi, Iihara Nishi belatedly inquired, "Xiu Xin is going to Hokkaido?"

"Hey! Sister-in-law, Xiu Xin will be transferred to work in Hokkaido at the end of this month," Asai Ayumi explained.

Upon hearing this, Iihara Nishi panicked. Already a married woman, she couldn’t just run around rashly. With Aoyama Xiu Xin moving to Hokkaido, how would she seek revenge against him?

No, she must act quickly to turn him against Asai Zexi. Surely Asai Zexi couldn’t accept that Aoyama Xiu Xin had slept with his sister-in-law.

Aoyama Xiu Xin had ruined her love.

It was time for a tooth for a tooth; to ruin his engagement!

Iihara Nishi grew determined. Under the table, her toes clad in flesh-colored stockings reached out to stroke Aoyama Xiu Xin’s leg and occasionally flashed coquettish glances at him secretly.

Aoyama Xiu Xin looked at Asai Zexi with a helpless face and subtly nudged Zexi’s foot with his own.

Asai Zexi discreetly glanced down, immediately guessing what his new wife was up to, yet felt no emotion inside.

Instead, he gave a mocking look; Iihara Nishi was nothing but a clown in the eyes of him and Aoyama Xiu Xin.

Since his brother-in-law didn’t mind, Aoyama Xiu Xin had no reason to be coy, happy to let his brother enjoy the back-stepping service and shifted his chair forward.

This action completely covered his lower body with the tablecloth.

Seeing this, Iihara Nishi’s eyes brightened a bit, and she thought disdainfully. Oh, claiming righteousness that other time by slapping me, all just facade—no man is decent except for my Jian Er.

Her toes awkwardly unzipped Aoyama Xiu Xin’s zipper, and as her toes touched him, she involuntarily shivered and incredulously stared at him.

Idiot!

The comfort of the back-stepping depends entirely on the skill of the practitioner, and perhaps because Iihara Nishi had no experience in such a field, she complete lacked skill, giving Aoyama Xiu Xin’s brother a mediocre experience at best—a poor review.

But Iihara Nishi was trying hard, beads of sweat faintly visible on her forehead, until her ankle hurt too much to continue and she withdrew her foot, giving Aoyama Xiu Xin a deep look.

This guy was truly quite enduring.

After dinner, Asai Zexi used inviting Aoyama Xiu Xin for a smoke as an excuse to take him to the balcony on the second floor.

"How about it?" he asked cheerfully.

"The skills are average," Aoyama Xiu Xin noncommittally shrugged his shoulders then added seriously, "Big brother, do you really not mind? Or do you have some special fetishes? Don’t worry, I respect personal preferences."

"Stop your wild guesses! I don’t have those bizarre hobbies! It’s just that I simply don’t regard her as my woman," Asai Zexi’s face darkened.

"That’s a relief then; otherwise, wouldn’t it mean, you’ve gotten a taste of it?" Aoyama Xiu Xin laughed heartily and turned to head downstairs, "It’s cold, you can stay here and enjoy the breeze on your own."

Asai Zexi stood there smoking, his smile fading into a solemn expression filled with deep thoughts.

He indeed had no feelings for Iihara Nishi.

But there was one thing he was hiding from Aoyama Xiu Xin.

That he was infertile, and he and Iihara Nishi had to have a child, a symbol of the union between the Asakai and Iihara families.

The future heir to all his properties.

Only in this way would the Iihara family provide him with the greatest support, even if he and Iihara Nishi turned on each other later. As long as the child existed, the bond between him and the Iihara family would be unbreakable.

Thus, he was happy to facilitate a relationship between Aoyama Xiu Xin and Iihara Nishi, discreetly achieving conception under the guise of maintaining his manly dignity.

The sooner, the better for him.

Having his brother-in-law raise the child was better than some other unknown man, and as long as he kept silent, who would know the child wasn’t his?

Aoyama Xiu Xin, oblivious to his brother-in-law’s unspoken difficulties and the schemes concerning his seed, made merry at the Asakai’s home until past ten in the evening before taking his leave.

Tomorrow, he still had to attend Cui Guiwen’s funeral.
