Chapter 1997: Your Level Doesn’t Seem to Be Very Good
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The originally quiet morning became tense and serious because of Lin Yi and Mina Ito’s arrival.
When they approached the wooden manor, they could see more than twenty people standing in two rows at the entrance, staring fixedly at their car.
In the car, Lin Yi also realized that other than the people in front of him, there were many people hiding in other corners. They were holding sniper rifles and were already aiming at him.
Such a scene can be called strict, but they were also putting on a full display.
Compared to Fang Dezong’s villa, the security was on a completely different level.
Soon, their car stopped at the entrance and they got out.
A middle-aged man stood at the door and sized Lin Yi and Mina Ito up.
“Taro Karasawa asked you to come.”
“Yes,” Lin Yi replied lightly.
“Then I’ll have to trouble the two of you to wait outside for a while. Mr. Kyomoto is still resting. When he wakes up, he will meet the two of you.”
“He’s not up yet?” Mina Ito frowned.
“It’s 5:13 in the morning. Mr. Kyomoto isn’t up yet.”
“But just now, didn’t he…”
“Alright, we’re indeed a little early. Just wait here for a while.”
Lin Yi’s words interrupted Mina Ito.
Although she didn’t understand, she didn’t ask anything. They could only return to the car and continue waiting.
“Mr. Lin, I think they did it on purpose.” Mina Ito said.
“Our identities are quite special. The subordinates would definitely notify Yoshitomo Kyomoto, but now they’re saying he’s not up yet. It’s obviously deliberate.”
“Yes, it’s deliberate,” Lin Yi said.
“Then why are you so calm, Mr. Lin?”
“Whether Yoshitomo Kyomoto is doing it on purpose or not, the outcome of this matter is already determined,” Lin Yi said.
“This just affects whether he lives a little longer or a little shorter. Since they’re about to die, let’s give them a bit more time. No rush.”
“This…”
Mina Ito was somewhat shocked and didn’t know what to say.
Inside the wooden house, Yoshitomo Kyomoto was already washing up, leisurely and not seeming in a hurry.
Yoshitomo Kyomoto was somewhat plump, standing less than 170 cm tall but weighing over 200 pounds, making him look like a ball.
After washing up, Yoshitomo Kyomoto changed into his samurai outfit1 and went to his dojo.
Though his appearance was unremarkable, Yoshitomo Kyomoto was an undisputed kendo master.
Every morning, he practiced swordsmanship this way to improve his skills.
In the dojo hung a black long sword, Yoshitomo Kyomoto’s personal sword, named Toyotomi Odachi.
It was a family heirloom that had been passed down for over a hundred years, and he always kept it with him.
As Yoshitomo Kyomoto took down the sword, the middle-aged man who had greeted Lin Yi and Mina Ito earlier appeared behind him.
“Leader, the two people sent by Taro Karasawa are still waiting at the gate.”
“Let them wait.”
Yoshitomo Kyomoto drew the sword and gently wiped it, seemingly uninterested in dealing with Lin Yi and Mina Ito.
“They came suddenly. Do you think they know we were behind the attack on Caie Mitsui?”
“Probably,” Yoshitomo Kyomoto said calmly.
“The Mitsubishi Group has long wanted to find an opportunity to strike the Mitsui Group. This is a great chance. Even if the two sides tear each other apart, it doesn’t matter. They can only suspect us without concrete evidence.”
“When will you meet the two outside, Leader?”
“Those two small fries are already lucky to get a chance to see me. When I meet them depends on my mood.”
“Should we inform Mr. Iwasaki about this?”
“No need. Don’t bother him with such trivial matters.”
“Understood.”
…
Unknowingly, more than an hour passed, and the two were still waiting in the car, with no summons from Yoshitomo Kyomoto.
Lin Yi was on his phone, chatting with Caie Mitsui, seemingly unbothered.
Another hour or so passed before the middle-aged man emerged from the wooden house.
“Mr. Lin,” Mina Ito reminded.
Lin Yi looked up. “Let’s go and see.”
“The leader has granted you five minutes, but first, you must be searched.”
“That’s fine,” Lin Yi replied.
The middle-aged man signaled to others, who stepped forward to search the two.
Anticipating this, Lin Yi had left his scalpel and defense master dagger in the car.
Mina Ito’s gun was also confiscated.
“Alright, you may follow me.”
The middle-aged man gestured for them to follow and led them into Yoshitomo Kyomoto’s dojo.
Yoshitomo Kyomoto sat cross-legged in front of a small wooden table about one meter square, with a few exquisite but modest dishes on it.
The Toyotomi Odachi lay beside the small dining table, emanating a faint aura of menace.
“Why are you looking for me?”
Yoshitomo Kyomoto’s aura was very strong. Coupled with his D-class level, Mina Ito was instantly suppressed when facing him.
However, this did not affect Lin Yi.
“You arranged the car accident last night, right?”
Lin Yi’s expression was calm, as if he was talking about a very ordinary matter.
“I don’t quite understand what you’re talking about.”
“No matter what, you’re now the leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi branch. If you still hide it, you’ll lose your value.”
Yoshitomo Kyomoto looked at Lin Yi with raised eyebrows. This man was not simple to speak with such an attitude in front of him.
Thinking of this, Yoshitomo Kyomoto smiled.
“So what if I did it? Are you here to take revenge on me?” Yoshitomo Kyomoto said with a smile.
“With just the two of you, it won’t be enough.”
“I just need you to admit it.”
Lin Yi stood up and walked towards Yoshitomo Kyomoto. The latter frowned slightly. This was not what he had expected.
“You’d better stay where you are, or it won’t do you any good.”
“I’m here to solve the problem. If I stand still, there’d be no way to solve the problem.”
“You’re still so disobedient when you’re in my territory. Young man, you’ve committed a huge taboo.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yoshitomo Kyomoto’s expression suddenly changed. He grabbed the sword beside him, pulled out the blade, and slashed at Lin Yi!
However, Lin Yi was even faster. His large hand reached out like a ghost and grabbed Yoshitomo Kyomoto’s wrist. Then, he suddenly exerted strength!
The immense pain made Yoshitomo Kyomoto scream. He felt as if his bones had been broken!
Yoshitomo Kyomoto’s sword fell and was instantly grabbed by Lin Yi. In the blink of an eye, it was pressed against Yoshitomo Kyomoto’s neck!
“Your level doesn’t seem to be very good.”
