Chapter 234: Chapter 155: "She Said She’s Your Girlfriend

In the private room, drinks were exchanged as the mood warmed up, and they started discussing how to live in the future.

Since they ended up joining the Aum Truth Sect, it indicates that they were basically marginalized people who were disillusioned with life. To suddenly ask them to reinvigorate and live well, even if they have the will, the conditions of reality don’t allow it.

Someone said they found a dishwashing job, another said they plan to work at a convenience store temporarily, and yet another mentioned they plan to return to the countryside to fish... Most of them can’t find jobs, and without a fixed residence in Japan, even for manual labor, employers won’t hire them.

The brief liveliness of the gathering was like drinking poison to quench thirst, pulling everyone back to reality, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.

Otomachi Hayashi put down his wine glass, silent and speechless. He hadn’t found a job either, but he was slightly more fortunate as he could still sleep in his car; others could only sleep on the streets and be homeless.

At this moment, Shirakawa Miki suddenly proposed, "Since everyone is disillusioned with society, why don’t we rebuild the sect, living and eating together? Without the oppressions of the Senior Mentor, our cultivation progress will definitely be swift..."

"Stop it!" Junko interrupted.

Shirakawa Miki was indifferent, "Now with Fushimi Sect Leader leading us, we will definitely achieve enlightenment in the New World..."

Otomachi Hayashi couldn’t help but interrupt, "Mr. Fu Jian himself said he doesn’t believe any of that! There’s no such thing as doomsday and superpowers, so stop talking about it!"

"That’s only because Fushimi Sect Leader was pressured to say that, casually fooling outsiders, and you believed it? With such little restraint, how can you hope to achieve enlightenment in the future?"

After Shirakawa Miki finished speaking, seeing that no one agreed with her, she got up with her wine glass and pressed herself against Fushimi Roku, saying that she wanted to serve the hierarch with Junko through the Five Syllables Ceremony and dual cultivation... Those who rejoin the sect can later dual cultivate with female believers.

Junko blushed and told her mother not to speak such shameful words. She did not want to lose face in front of others, let alone in front of Mr. Fu Jian.

The male believers were tempted, while the female believers showed expressions of disgust.

Truth be told, except for her eccentric mind, Shirakawa Miki was the classic beauty of a mature wife... Sort of the slightly plump type commonly seen in future classic love action films and anime.

Junko, on the other hand, was a pure maiden, with bangs and thick glasses, looking rather easy to bully, somewhat like the literary girl in mind-breaking literature, ready to be corrupted by a bully senior.

The mother and daughter together were doubly lethal. Those who understood, understood; their bodies had been well developed, making them top stars in the exotic stores.

Outside the private room, Minamoto Tamako clenched her fists, making a cracking sound, while Watanabe Shun quickly pressed her, signaling her not to alert the snake.

Fushimi Roku put down his wine glass and began clearing the table.

He had called everyone here today not to reinvigorate the sect; he was not interested in being a sect leader. If he had any desire for power, he wouldn’t still be a mere criminal police officer today.

Everyone was puzzled, not knowing what he intended to do.

Fushimi Roku cleared the dining table a bit, then picked up his backpack and poured out stacks of ten-thousand yen bills, piling them into a small mountain on the table.

Upon seeing this, everyone inside and outside the private room froze in disbelief.

"Since mistakes were made, there must be a punishment. Generally, I wouldn’t admit my mistakes, but you’re lucky there’s someone to uphold justice for you."

Fushimi Roku casually picked up a stack of bills and placed it on Shirakawa Miki’s hand, "These are my Redemption Vouchers; you can take them as bail money or compensation. In short, take this money, and we’re even."

"This..." Otomachi Hayashi was at a loss for words, his mind a mix of emotions.

"How can I accept money from the hierarch?" Shirakawa Miki quickly pushed the money back, saying, "You’re being too distant..."

"If you don’t take it, you’re putting me in an unjust position," Fushimi Roku sternly said, "All my savings are here, so if you think it’s not enough, I’ll find another way."

Everyone looked at each other, and suddenly fell silent.

Otomachi Hayashi was the first to break the silence, "Does Mr. Fu Jian sincerely want to sever ties with us?"

"Consider it that way," Fushimi Roku replied.

Horie Junko quickly offered an explanation, "Mr. Fu Jian absolutely doesn’t mean that; he’s doing this out of kindness to help us... Mr. Fu Jian has always been a gentle, kind person..."

Junko’s voice grew quieter as she spoke, and the last words were only audible to herself.

Although everyone wanted to be honorable, faced with reality, they took the money sincerely.

Fushimi Roku distributed the money one by one, giving everyone a sum of "relief funds," enough to help them through this hardest time.

No matter what Otomachi Hayashi thought, everyone else genuinely thanked Fushimi Roku... This money was like timely assistance, granting them a new life in some sense.

Otomachi Hayashi was the last to receive the money, and he said through gritted teeth, "I will definitely pay this back!"

"There’s no need," Fushimi Roku brushed it aside.

"No, I must repay it, especially if you still consider me a friend!" Otomachi Hayashi stated seriously.

Seeing this, Fushimi Roku didn’t argue. Others chimed in, patting Otomachi Hayashi’s back, telling him not to be so serious. Shirakawa Miki took the opportunity to raise her glass, and everyone exchanged drinks, the atmosphere becoming cheerful once again.

Outside the door, the police officers all turned their heads and looked at Kinosaki Shoujin, not sure what their boss intended by watching this... Mr. Fu Jian’s noble character indeed made them admire him, but wasn’t the original mission to catch smugglers?

Where were the smugglers?

Kinosaki Shoujin then glanced at Watanabe Shun, wondering about the promised intrigue among powerful families? Why was Mr. Fu Jian only spending money? Fushimi Roku casually throwing out his five-year salary was incredible; how could being a kept man be so gratifying?

Watanabe Shun turned to Minamoto Tamako, is this what you meant by an affair?

From what we’ve seen, Mr. Fu Jian is a proud man! He dares to take responsibility and can say ’no’ to beauty offered so willingly. You’d be hard-pressed to find such a good man with a lantern, so why is Minamoto Tamako still suspicious?

Minamoto Tamako’s ears were burning as she realized she once again made a poor judgment due to personal feelings...

At this moment, someone suddenly said inside the room: "Aunt Shirakawa, getting so close won’t help, Mr. Fu Jian already has a girlfriend."

"Is it the super cute young police officer?" Otomachi Hayashi asked curiously.

"That’s her! Isn’t that obvious?" one of the believers answered.

"We’re just ordinary friends," Fushimi Roku casually explained, picking up his chopsticks, focusing on his meal.

As soon as he said that, everyone outside turned their gazes towards Minamoto Tamako. She once again experienced the ’loyal puppy stare’ she had before, not daring to look up, hurriedly adding in a lowered voice, "Y-yeah, I’ve always been just a friend with Mr. Fu Jian... good partners, good teammates..."

Watanabe Shun displayed an expression of ’so that’s how it is’.

Then a believer inside the room asked, "But we’ve met her before..."

"Yeah, that’s right."

An accompanying believer nodded repeatedly, pausing to add, "She said she was your girlfriend."
