chapter 0203 part 2
When we were young, he once saved my life. I don't have much time left; this is how it is when you get old, you always reminisce about the past. Seeing an old friend before I die leaves me with no regrets!”
Ichiro Yashida smiled at Tang Song, full of the detachment of someone who has come to terms with life and death. As he spoke, he looked with childlike affection at Mariko Yashida, who was sitting demurely beside Tang Song.
“Shingen is too overbearing. I originally thought Mariko would be bullied after I died. It seems her judgment is good; this puts my mind at ease!”
“Grandfather!” Mariko Yashida was moved to tears by Ichiro Yashida's genuine emotions.
The grandfather and granddaughter talked for a while. Tang Song, in the capacity of a junior, also chatted with Ichiro Yashida for a bit.
Then, Ichiro Yashida's private doctor asked them to leave the Room, citing his need for rest.
As soon as Tang Song and Mariko Yashida left the Room, Ichiro Yashida stood up with the help of the high-tech medical bed. Impatiently, he pointed at the unconscious Wolverine and urgently said to the private doctor, “Quick, check his physical condition! Will it affect the healing factor transplant?!”
The blonde, blue-eyed female doctor licked her lips with her tongue, like a forked snake's tongue.
She walked over to Wolverine, extended her sharp fingernails, and drew a wound on his arm.
“Everything is normal. Although I don't know why he's unconscious, it won't affect your plan!”
Looking at the rapidly healing scratch, the female doctor said to Ichiro Yashida.
“When can we start?” Ichiro Yashida breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the female doctor say this, then said urgently.
“I need two days of preparation time!”
The female doctor licked her lips, just like a poisonous, beautiful snake.
“As soon as possible, I've had enough of this old body!” Ichiro Yashida stroked Wolverine Logan's sturdy chest, his eyes full of envy.
………………
Mariko Yashida was accompanying Tang Song, walking through the corridors of the Yashida Family's old residence...
Shingen Yashida walked towards the two of them, full of anger. He came before Tang Song and directly questioned, “Mr. Tang, last night, Hideki Takahashi was in a car accident near Kabukicho street!”
“Hideki Takahashi? Who is he? A car accident? What does that have to do with me?”
Shingen Yashida looked at Tang Song's nonchalant expression and snorted. “Hideki Takahashi is the legitimate son of Japan's Minister of Internal Affairs. He was in a car accident yesterday, and now the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department is searching everywhere for the culprit! It's best if it has nothing to do with Mr. Tang!”
Shingen Yashida looked at Tang Song, then at Mariko Yashida, his face gloomy, and was about to turn and leave.
“Mr. Yashida, please stay. There are some matters I'd like to discuss with you alone...”
“What is it?” Shingen Yashida stopped and looked at Tang Song.
“You go back to your Room first. Mr. Yashida and I have some matters to discuss!”
Mariko Yashida heard Tang Song's words and didn't throw a tantrum. She obediently left the corridor and walked towards her Room.
“Mariko has left. Now, Mr. Tang, what instructions do you have?”
Shingen Yashida's attitude was worlds apart from yesterday. He was certain that Hideki Takahashi had been hit and killed by someone this Man in front of him had hired.
The Takahashi Family was a political ally he had painstakingly courted.
Now, they might instead become his biggest enemies.
It would be strange if Shingen Yashida gave Tang Song a pleasant look.
“Mr. Yashida, have you heard of immortality?” Tang Song didn't mind Shingen Yashida's hostile attitude. Instead, he smiled and threw out a question.
“Immortality!” Shingen Yashida was startled, then said impatiently, “Things from myths and legends. Are you making fun of me, Mr. Tang?”
“Things from myths and legends? That's not necessarily true. I just personally delivered the key to longevity to old Mr. Yashida...”
“What do you mean by that?” Shingen Yashida stared at Tang Song and asked seriously!
A smile appeared on Tang Song's face.
………………
Mariko Yashida didn't know what Tang Song and Shingen Yashida discussed. She noticed Shingen Yashida's complexion was very poor, but being sensible, she didn't go forward to ask.
She stayed by Tang Song's side, accompanied him for lunch at the Yashida Family's old residence, and then saw him off as he left the Yashida Family's old residence.
The Yashida Family served guests some Japanese feature dishes: Tuna sashimi, fried tempura, sushi rolls...
The plating was exquisite, but the portions were pitifully small. Adam ate two tables' worth by himself before he was full.
“Sir!”
At the entrance of the Yashida Family's old residence, Mariko Yashida wrapped her arms around Tang Song's waist, somewhat reluctant to part, wanting to accompany Tang Song back to the Hotel.
Tang Song stroked her hair, just about to say something, when two police cars suddenly drove over and stopped in front of the Yashida Family's old residence entrance.
Several police officers got out of the police cars. A Middle-Aged Man leading them walked up to Tang Song.
“Sir, I am Megure from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. You are suspected in a murder case. Please come with us!”
“Officer, Mr. Tang is a guest of our Yashida Family...” Mariko Yashida blocked the Middle-Aged Police Officer and shouted loudly.
Several Bodyguards also surrounded them.
Tang Song patted her hand, pulled her aside, walked up to the Middle-Aged Police Officer, and looked down at him.
“Officer Megure, right? Have you looked into my identity?”
Officer Megure looked up at Tang Song, frowning. “Are you referring to your identity as a Federation Person? No matter where you are from, if you break the law in Japan, you will be subject to trial!”
“Slap!”
Tang Song backhanded him with a slap.
Officer Megure's face immediately bore a bright red handprint.
He covered his face in disbelief...
“What are you doing?”
“You dare assault a police officer!”
“Baka! Grab him!”
Several police officers following Officer Megure cursed angrily as they stepped forward to act.
One impatient one even pulled out his police gun.
“Call the Federation Embassy! Tell them a Federation Congressman in Tokyo has been slandered, and demand an explanation from the Japanese Prime Minister!”
“If they can't provide an explanation, call the Federation Garrison Command in Japan and see if they'll handle it...”
