Chapter 823: Chips
The appearance of Inoue Kazuhiko and the others really surprised the Hard Gold Group’s group of executives. Inoue Kazuhiko had completely restrained himself from being a jianghu person.
He even purposely wore a suit on his body for this occasion. Only, the yellow hair on his head was not dyed back to black, and the earrings above his ears were not removed.
Inoue Kazuhiko took the initiative and bowed forty-five degrees towards the crowd present, “I’m really disturbed for coming here uninvited. However, Justice has made such a big mistake.
It would be a violation of morality for none of you to inform me! I’ve come to inquire about the situation on behalf of myself and all the bigwigs in the pachinko industry in Japan.
Next to me is a mother holding a child, who has no deep connection with me, but has a deep connection with justice. Let’s let her introduce herself next!”
Fujie Nao stood to the side of him holding her child horizontally. Before she opened her mouth, she similarly bowed forty-five degrees towards everyone present.
Fujie Nao said in a serious manner, “My name is Fujie Nao. Some of you have known me for a long time, while others have not.
I run a club called Firefly in Ginza, Chuo-ku. The financier is Masayoshi, the biological father of the child in my swaddling clothes.”
Rie Sakai, who was sitting on top of the president’s throne with her hands holding her son, was surprisingly calm about the identity she had indicated.
She gave off the impression that she had expected all of this. Fujie Naoe had brought her child here on purpose, already making it clear that she had come to usurp power and divide the property.
“It can’t be that if you say that child is the chairman’s, it’s the chairman’s!” Yamada Mirai, who was the head of the chairman’s secretary’s office, suddenly took the initiative to stand up for Sakai Rie.
“We’re perfectly capable of going for a DNA test. If this one child isn’t the blood of justice, I’m afraid that the punishment I’ll receive in the future won’t be any so-called reputation loss or fraud, but rather, it will be hard to escape death.” Fujie Naoe said very seriously.
“If any one of you dares to commit fraud, then I will not spare him either.” Kazuhiko Inoue dared to conclude that Fujie Nao’s child was indeed the blood of justice, but not without worrying that someone else would play a fraud, he said.
The reason why Fujie Nao was able to persuade Inoue Kazuhiko, who was still hesitant to get involved, was to use the child she was holding as a bargaining chip.
As long as Inoue Kazuhiko could help her and her child obtain a place in the Hard Gold Group, then there would definitely be a generous reward. The two families could become in-laws.
Inoue Kazuhiko naturally had a reason to be moved by such an offer she made. How many people who were rogues were truly willing to be in such a line of work?
He had known for a long time that if you come out to be a gangster, sooner or later you have to return the favor, after all, there was no guarantee that you wouldn’t have a grudge against someone else. He was mentally prepared to die.
Now, not only did he see an opportunity to clear his family’s name and get to the shore, but it was also an opportunity to solidify the relationship and interests of the next generation of the Inoue family and the next generation of the Kishimoto family.
If he himself was able to send Fujie Nao and Kishimoto Masayoshi’s child to the Hard Gold Group’s presidential throne, it would mean that he had the credit for championing the cause.
Even if he couldn’t, he would still be able to make it possible for him to occupy an important position within the Hard Gold Group. According to Japan’s inheritance law, both legitimate and illegitimate children have equal inheritance rights.
Unless a special note was made in the will. If Masayoshi Kishimoto had suddenly fallen unconscious, it meant that in all likelihood he wouldn’t have made any wills, after all, he was still so young and in good health.
He was betting on the fact that Rie Sakai’s side would not be able to come up with a will for Masayoshi Kishimoto. While Inoue Kazuhiko was calculating, he didn’t realize that he had already fallen into the chessboard set up by Nao Naito step by step.
Just as he had promised to support her and Masayoshi Kishimoto’s child, he had unknowingly become a pawn in her hands.
Fujie Nao knew that she alone would be banging her egg against a rock. She was unwilling to quietly bring her child into hiding because the lure of the Hard Gold Group was too strong to resist.
She could only use all the means at her disposal to find people who could exert a certain degree of influence and power in the Hard Gold Group to support her in her endeavors.
These people are undoubtedly Inoue Kazuhiko and other bigwigs in the pachinko industry. We were all people who hung out in the gray areas of society, so it was even easier to talk together.
As for Takahashi Kazuya and the others, don’t look at them as patronizing their place from time to time just to have fun. They were all decent people in society, so they naturally had to take their personal honor into consideration.
Even if it was legal to come to the club for pleasure, it didn’t mean it was good. Once it really comes to personal interests, they will definitely draw a line with themselves, not to mention any support.
In their hearts and bones, how could they look down on themselves as a kind of publicist mom? On this point, she saw through it thoroughly.
Fujie Nao had never sincerely wanted to form a so-called in-laws relationship with Inoue Kazuhiko. The purpose of her saying this was to persuade him, that’s all.
As for the future, that could be changed slowly. Right now, if one missed the opportunity, then there would be no future at all.
After the entire Hard Gold Group’s high-level conference room had passed a small period of time when a needle could not be heard, Sakai Rie suddenly showed a particularly atmospheric side and made a decisive decision: “Since all of you have come from afar, let’s sit next to each other and listen to it properly!”
At this time, not only Kazuya Takahashi, but also the people in the audience were surprised that she would make such a decision. Many people thought that she would immediately order the people out, but they didn’t expect such a thing.
Sakai Rie’s head was clear inside, not out of breath at all. She was of the opinion that the bulls and devils would come sooner or later.
In that case, they would come together! As long as she and her son had the support of most of the executives within the Hard Gold Group, then the situation would be finalized.
On the contrary, for himself and his son to not have the support of most of the executives within the Hard Gold Group would mean that things would become more and more confusing.
Kazuhiko Inoue and Nao Fujie, who was holding her child with her arms across her chest, sat down next to each other without haste. The two of them were thus licensed to attend the meeting.
As for the attendants behind them, they naturally retreated of their own accord with the utmost understanding. There was also someone among them who carefully re-closed the door of the Hard Gold Group’s high-level conference room.
