Awakening - Chapter 212
“Chang’an, has master come out yet?” After passing through the door, Rei Li asked as he took off his suit.
Dressed in white casual clothing, the middle-aged man dropped the newspaper and said: “His excellency is still calmly meditating in the room.”
Rei Li cannot help but confuse, “In addition to this week, it’s nearly half a month, what kind of thing that master need to meditate about for so long?”
“Your excellency naturally has his reason. How about those things?”
Rei Li yawned, “It’s almost there. Thankfully, we have this Sweden branch, otherwise, I won’t know where to put these many people. What about you?”
“Things that need to be handled are already handled. The one they are looking for is you, but since you’ve got out, it’s been good.”
“I know, I’ve finally been able to vent out. Seeing them like that feels so good.” Rei Li showed an excited expression.
“We give them so much trouble this time, our trouble in the future will definitely not be less. We need to adjust our future route, no longer can we act recklessly like before. At least, we need to close our arms business.”
Hearing this, Rei Li suddenly said with a bitter face: “That’s our biggest source of income, this is really a big loss.”
“Little Rei, this kind of shady business, although the profits are high, also very dangerous. It’s better to quit as soon as possible. With our current financial resources, we do not need too much money to expand. Times have changed, the real economic return only exists in the enterprise. This is why I try not to meddle in the underworld things these recent years and concentrate on the development of the company.”
Rei Li thought for a moment and then said: “You mean, you want the Black Dragon to transform into a legitimate business?”
Chang’an nodded: “You can say so. In my opinion, the so-called turf, status in the rivers and lakes, are fake. These things are nothing more than a passing scene. What happened three years ago and now are the most obvious examples.
However, Industrial group or Company is different, as long as you hold the stock, even if other people want to snatch it away from you, they can’t. This is the universal law in the commercial world. Of course, since the Black Dragon have accumulated influence and forces over the years, it would not be easy to let them go because these things can make us do things that many legitimate companies can’t. The reason why so many underworld organizations finally meet their end is because most of their sources of income are illegal. The result is, not only would they be troubled by the one in the ‘white road,’ other gangs will stare at this piece of fat. As long as we seal this gap, by using legitimate business earnings to maintain the Black Dragon, and then prop up even more legitimate business, our Black Dragon will be in an impregnable position.”
“The one who complies with the rules of the game will always be well-received than the one who seeks to break the rules.” Along with these words, Lei Yin, still disguised as a middle-aged man, walked from the inside.
“Your excellency.” Chang’an immediately stood up.
“Master, you finally come out.” Rei Li said in surprise.
“Thank you.” Taking the teacup that was offered by Chang’an, Lei Yin slowly took a sip, and then said: “What Chang’an said is reasonable, this may be a good opportunity.”
Rei Li seriously said: “I know, I will think about it.”
Lei Yin asked: “Are everyone settled yet?”
“Yes, except for the security personnel outside, the rest have been settled. Uncle Shu, uncle Ming and the others have gone to Finland last week.”
“Your excellency, this is the news of what happened while you meditated for two weeks.” Chang’an brought a stack of newspapers.
Lei Yin casually flipped through a few of them for a while and then said: “It looks like it is similar to our initial estimate. They did not dare to tell the truth. However, they will certainly come again, we need to be ready before then.”
“This is our territory, moreover, the new dark group members are all here. This time we must f*ck them hard and blow their *ssh*les.”
Lei Yin was silent, just gently tapping the arm of the chair with his finger.

“Kazumi, come with me to buy a skirt, okay? Last week, I saw a beautiful skirt in the mall, but I just felt that it’s a bit expensive so I didn’t buy it. After thinking for a long time, I finally decided to buy it. That skirt is really beautiful. You’ll know it when you see it.” Take Asasei said to her friend while tidying up the textbooks.
“I’m sorry, little Asasei, I want to go to my brother’s place to take a look and help him clean it.”
Seeing her friend’s apologetic eyes, Take Asasei patted her shoulder and said: “We’ll go out next time. Would you like me to go with you?”
Kazumi smiled: “No need, I’ll be back soon.”
As they walked outside, Take Asasei a bit worriedly asked: “Did your brother say when he will be back? It’s been almost two months, if he doesn’t come back soon, his school grade would be in a very serious trouble.”
“He has some things to deal with, but he should be back soon.” When she talked, Kazumi’s eyes were filled with worry.
In fact, she did not know when he will be back.
Since hearing the conversation between him and Sasako, she knew that the things hidden behind her brother were far beyond her original imagination. Although he just said he needed to go out to do some things, her intuition told her that those things were very dangerous.
She was really afraid, afraid that it would happen like the last time, him went missing for more than two years, or even….
Thinking to this, Kazumi felt a burst of chill, the kind of cold that passed through the deepest part of the heart.
“Kazumi, Kazumi.”
Hearing her friend yelling her name, Kazumi finally woke up, “Little Asasei, what did you say?”
Take Asasei looked at her face with concern, “Are you okay? You don’t look good at all.”
Kazumi said with a smile: “I am fine, let’s go.” With that, she walked out of the classroom, book in hand.
Take Asasei cast her a glance, bit her own lips and then said: “Kazumi, are you worried about your brother?” Her friend’s expression made her think back to the scene during their stay in Kagoshima.
Kazumi was about to deny that. However, upon seeing her friend’s eyes that were filled with concern, her heart softened. Finally, she gently nodded.
“Do you think your brother will be in danger?” Take Asasei instinctively asked.
Kazumi clasped the book on her bosom and then whispered: “I don’t know.” With that, she slowly walked forward.
Take Asasei looked at her back and then quietly walked up beside her.
Just as they walked out of the classroom building, a man who originally stood by the roadside walked toward Kazumi.
While walking, Kazumi, who was lowering her head thinking about things, felt that there was someone in front of her. Thus, she looked up and see the man who stood in front her; Her brow cannot help but wrinkle.
“Hello, Kazumi.” Ogata Yasuda said with a smile.
Looking at Ogata Yasuda’s handsome countenance, the face of Take Asasei who stood next to Kazumi became very unnatural.
Without saying any words, Kazumi calmly pulled Take Asasei’s hand and bypassed him from the side.
Ogata Yasuda caught up with them, blocked their way and said: “Kazumi, I would like to have a good talk with you.”
“I have nothing to talk about with you. If you can understand human language, please get out of the way.” Kazumi coldly said.
“Kazumi, I really want to have a talk with you, would you please give me a chance, okay?” Yasuda’s face showed a completely sincere expression.
Kazumi sneered, “Is this game really that interesting? Honestly, I feel bored already.”
Yasuda became excited, “This is not a game! At eight o’clock in the evening, I will wait for you at the previous restaurant. I will always be there until you are willing to see me.” Then, he turned around and walked away.
Watching his back, Kazumi’s eyes revealed a look of ridicule.
At this time, Take Asasei suddenly whispered, “Kazumi, would….would you go see him?”
The corner of Kazumi’s lips curled into a sneer; She then turned around and said to her: “Little Asasei, forget that playboy, you will find a young man who will sincerely like you.”
Take Asasei paused and then said: “Actually, in the beginning, from his eyes, I already knew that the one he likes is not me. It was just my wishful thinking that as long as I give out the effort, one day I can make him really like me. Am I stupid?”
Seeing her friend barely covered her tear-filled eyes with a smile, Kazumi could only wordlessly hold her hands.
The two of them then continued to walk on a path near the campus entrance. Three girls suddenly got down from a high-end car that stopped by the roadside and then walked up to them. A few meters away from them stood two big men who seemed to be the bodyguards.
Carefully looking at the girl with glasses in front of her, Mingyu Jizi (The frenemy of Haruko) still could not understand why Yasuda would be interested in this ordinary girl. So much so that, almost every day, he came looking for her in her part-time job.
At the beginning, she also thought Yasuda was just having fun as usual. But after two months, not only Yasuda still do the exact same thing as before every day, he did not even look for other pretty girls to play with like he used to. This unusual behavior of him finally caused Mingyu Jizi to be vigilant.
By chance, she saw the look on Yasuda’s face when he was looking at this girl in the classroom. His eyes made her feel a bit uneasy because she often saw that kind of look from the boys who followed her around. In her mind, whether it be the family background, appearance, and demeanor, Ogata Yasuda was her best future husband candidate, only he worthy to be with her. She did not mind him hanging out with other pretty girls because she knew it was just for fun. But this seemed to be a little different; A woman is very sensitive to this kind of thing. From that day on, she felt that she might need to do some preventive measures in advance.
“What’s the matter?” Kazumi looked at the three beautiful girls, who seemed unfriendly, in front of her.
“Come with me, I have something to tell you.” Mingyu Jizi said to Kazumi.
“I don’t have much time, if you have something to say just say it here.” Kazumi dryly said.
Mingyu Jizi had an angry look in her eyes. This shameless woman!
Slightly calming her mood, she coldly said: “I don’t care what method you used on Yasuda, but I want you to stop seeing him again, you hear me? Give her the cheque.”
One of the girls who stood next to her stepped forward and handed Kazumi a cheque.
Kazumi’s mouth twitched; She pulled her slightly nervous friend’s hand and walked away from that girl.
Mingyu Jizi finally rushed up to her and loudly said: “Exactly how much do you want, tell me your price.”
Glancing at her, Kazumi flatly said: “Don’t you think that this kind of thing will only make you look bad? For such a playboy like him, is it worth it?”
Seeing Kazumi immediately walked away without waiting for her reply, Mingyu Jizi could not help but angry out of shame; She loudly said to those two bodyguards: “Give this shameless woman a lesson.”
The two bodyguards showed an awkward expression and did not know what to do.
“Didn’t you hear? I told you to give that b*tch a lesson.” Mingyu Jizi stared at those two bodyguards.
The two bodyguards had to run up to stop in front of Kazumi, not letting her go.
“Jizi, what do you want? Just forget it.” Although no bystanders were in the vicinity, one of the girls was afraid to make things big, so she loudly persuaded her.
“Just shut up!” After she swore at them, Mingyu Jizi went to the front of Kazumi and then said: “I’m gonna ask you again, do you or do you not plan to entangle Yasuda?”
Kazumi sneered: “It seems like you really need to go back to Junior High School because you have a problem with your logical thinking. If you can make that playboy to not appear in front of me, I will be very grateful to you.”
Mingyu Jizi felt humiliated, her face reddened in anger, “You poisonous b*tch. You two, give her a lesson, let her know the consequences of talking nonsense. I will assume all the responsibility.”
The two bodyguards looked at each other, and then took a step toward Kazumi. In their opinion, this bespectacled girl was but an ordinary person. As long as they did not kill or seriously injure her, by virtue of Mingyu Jizi’s family relationship with the police, they did not need to be afraid of a prosecution.
Looking at the increasingly closer two big men, Take Asasei, who stood next to Kazumi, began to be afraid, “What, what do you want to do?”
Chapter 212 Transformation Part 3
“Little Take, wait for my signal, and then quickly run away,” Kazumi whispered as she pulled her friend’s hand and moved backward.
“Weren’t you arrogant just now? How come you don’t talk, are you afraid? If you ask me, I may spare you.” Mingyu Jizi very proudly said.
“After living in a rich man’s house for a long time, people will turn into other people’s dogs. It seems like this sentence is on point here.” Kazumi contemptuously said toward the two bodyguards.
Hearing this, the two bodyguards’ eyes flashed out an angry look.
While they were angry, Kazumi suddenly turned around and pulled Take Asasei’s hand to run away.
The two bodyguards were surprised for a moment, but they immediately chased them.
Although the two girls have tried to run, they were slower than the two bodyguards. Very quickly the two bodyguards were already five meters behind them and soon would catch up to them.
At this time, from behind came a burst of rapid footsteps. Then, four casually clothed men, each of them wore a T-shirt, rushed from behind.
When these several men run passed Mingyu Jizi, she did not know what happened. But soon, she saw a shocking scene.
She saw one of the four men threw a flying kick toward the bodyguard closest to Kazumi, kicking him down to the ground. Then, he grabbed that bodyguard’s right hand that was about to grab him and bent it backward; Followed by a crisp sounding sound, the bodyguard issued an Earth shattering scream.
In comparison, the experience of the other bodyguard was even more tragic. Because he was hit by the three men at the same time. Less than five seconds later, he was among the two men wrestled to the ground and severely kicked. Another man walked over toward Mingyu Jizi and her friends.
“What do you want?” The three paled-face girls constantly retreated.
After carefully examining the three girls for a while, the man turned to the other three “hard-working” men and said: “Enough, let’s go.”
The three men loosened the two bodyguards and walked to that man’s side.
The man finally cast the three girls a final glance before walking away with the three men. The scene was so fast that it looked like they were just passersby.
Watching the two bodyguards lying on the ground screaming and groaning, Mingyu Jizi and the other two girls’ minds went blank. They completely did not know what just happened.
Standing next to Kazumi ten meters away from them, Take Asasei shakily said: “Kazumi, what just happened?” Fortunately, just now she was facing the opposite, so she did not see the scene where the two bodyguards were put down on the ground. Otherwise, she would definitely have nightmares because of that.
Similar to her, Kazumi also found no one chasing behind them. However, she was quicker than Take Asasei. When she turned around, she saw the few men put the two bodyguards down to the ground hard. But, because of her last experience with Sasako, she soon knew that her brother sent some men to secretly protect her. After thinking through this, in her heart surged a warm feeling that was hard to explain.
“I don’t know, let’s get out of here.” Afraid that her friend would continue to ask her, Kazumi immediately pulled her away.
“Ji, Jizi, who were those guys?” After a while, a girl finally could not bear but ask.
“How should I know? A group of waste.” After scolding a sentence in a low voice, Mingyu Jizi quickly walked back to the car. She just wanted to immediately leave this terrible place.
“Jizi, wait for me.” The two girls quickly followed her.
—
After she opened all the windows, Kazumi began to carefully clean the living room.
Although recently she almost always came here every day and could hardly find any dust in the apartment, she still very seriously cleaned it. She hoped that when her brother came back, the house would remain clean.
Looking at the shiny glass windows that she just polished, Kazumi somewhat proudly smiled.
Opening the refrigerator, she found some beverages and beer. After checking the dates on each of them, there was a bottle of expired juice. There were not that many beer left either; Tomorrow, she will have to go to the supermarket to buy some of them. After thinking about it, Kazumi took the expired bottle of juice and drained it.
Having nothing else to clean, Kazumi opened Lei Yin’s room and walked in.
In the room, she has tidied up all of the books in the first few weeks. The bed sheet and the sheet were neatly folded and tucked. The clothes that needed to be washed were already washed and put in the closet.
Feeling that nothing can be done anymore, Kazumi a bit disappointedly sat beside the bed.
Seemingly unconscious, she opened the already folded sheet and refolded it again and again.
When the sheet was completely folded, which could win her a prize in sheet folding competition, she took the sheet in his arms and put her face on top of it.
“Brother, I beg you, come back quick. Mom and Rumi miss you so much. Me too. I beg you, please don’t let anything happen.” The girl clung to the sheet and gently whispered.
