Chapter 6: Everything Is Going According to Plan
After sending the two police officers away, Nakasone Kazuko pulled Uesugi Kiyoshi to sit on the couch eagerly, leaning forward and asking, "Did they threaten or harm you? Oh, and by the way, did you manage to keep your patent?"
Uesugi Kiyoshi stayed silent, lifted the lunch box he was holding and shook it, saying, "Haven't eaten yet? Let's have something, some premium wagyu beef!"
"Wow, that's amazing!" Nakasone Kazuko kept complimenting while eating.
Seeing the delicate skin on the girl's neck, Uesugi Kiyoshi couldn't help but feel attracted.
He observed the scene just now very clearly from the side.
A girl who can cry for herself must also be interested in herself, right?
He was not insensitive and didn't want to disappoint the beautiful girl. It's time for some action!
"Kazuko!"
"What's up?"
Nakasone Kazuko looked puzzled, her mouth stuffed and puffy, tears still streaming down her cheeks and onto her neck.
"Um, this is…"
"Well, I thought Uncle Inoue is kind-hearted and can't stand tears, so I used a bit of mustard. It's okay, you'll be fine in a while!"
Nakasone Kazuko bravely wiped her eyes with her sleeve and asked. What do you want to say, Classmate Uesugi?
"…Oh, right, I wanted to answer your earlier question."
Uesugi Kiyoshi retold his experiences briefly and then opened his suitcase.
The Yumura Society was rich and prepared with ten billion in cash, twenty thousand yen notes weighing over 20 kilograms all together.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Nakasone Kazuko exclaimed. "My dad worked for twenty years just to buy one house, and now you could buy ten, no, twenty houses!"
Her face flushed, hands spread wide, as if describing how immense Uesugi Kiyoshi's wealth was. "With this money, you could even skip school!"
"Learning is a must for me."
Uesugi Kiyoshi smiled modestly.
It's rare to have a second chance at high school, especially in Japan, how could he miss it?
The health room, swimming pool, warehouse, empty classroom, a teacher in glasses and a short skirt, a high school girl in a one-piece swimsuit, a busty female doctor…
How can you not go to school?
If things go well, he is even prepared to start his own private school.
"That's great!"
Nakasone Kazuko became even happier, but her emotions quickly sank, "I just don't know when the school will start. Until then, we can only wait at home with nothing to do…"
"Who said that?" Uesugi Kiyoshi raised his eyebrows, "We still have many things to do!"
Even though he said that, he only took Nakasone Kazuko to a newly opened mall for a stroll, bought a few clothes, and then boredly watched TV at home until three or four days later, when they finally received the expected phone call.
"It's been five days overdue. I thought you were going to breach the contract!" Uesugi Kiyoshi lay lazily on the sofa and said.
"How could that be!" came a few dry laughs from the phone, "It's just been busy lately, plus the trouble from those monsters, we momentarily forgot about it… Do you have time to come and sign the contract?"
"I've always been free, I just didn't receive your invitation before, so I didn't dare to visit without an appointment."
"Mr. Uesugi… "
"No need to say more, let's talk next time we meet!"
Hanging up the phone, Uesugi Kiyoshi quickly put on his suit and woke up the sleeping girl, "Kazuko, let's go!"
"Oh, alright, where are we going?" Nakasone Kazuko asked with sleepy eyes.
"Going to negotiate, this time, I am the main character, hehe!"
Riding in a rented luxury car, they headed south, and before long, they arrived at the industrial area near Tokyo Bay.
The so-called industrial area, compared to the residential area, just has many factories mixed in. It was already working hours, and the sounds of machines starting up mixed together, low and loud.
Nakasone Kazuko looked around curiously, and unconsciously touched her temple.
At Uesugi Kiyoshi's request, she took off her headscarf, tied up her hair high, changed her usual school uniform to a blue and white blouse and skirt. She also put on a pair of non-prescription glasses on her nose, covering her childishness, making her look more mature.
"You look great, Kazuko!"
Uesugi Kiyoshi looked at the girl next to him, nodded in satisfaction, and said. Later, you just hold a pen and a notebook, stand by the side, remember, no talking!
Different from her personality, Nakasone Kazuko's voice was soft and gentle. Even normal conversation carried a hint of coquettishness. This contrasted sharply with her current professional look.
The car stopped at the entrance of a Plastic Processing Factory. Uesugi Kiyoshi and Nakasone Kazuko got out of the car, and a middle-aged man with a worried expression immediately approached them.
"Mr. Uesugi, you've worked hard!"
"It's okay, it's okay."
Uesugi Kiyoshi smiled casually and then turned to introduce, "This is Erlang Hattori, the manager of the Hattori Plastic Processing Factory. Mr. Hattori, this is my secretary, Nakasone Kazuko."
Nakasone Kazuko forced a smile, forgetting to shake hands with Erlang Hattori.
"It's okay, Mr. Hattori didn't mean to delay on purpose, it's just that there were many tasks to handle, causing a bit of delay. It's understandable!"
Uesugi Kiyoshi pretended to scold lightly, then he took out his business card from his pocket and handed it over.
"Oh, I almost forgot. I was in a rush last time, so here's my card. Please accept my apologies."
The day after he returned from the Yumura Society, the printed business cards were sent over, ten in total.
Of course, it's not that Yumura Hideyoshi is too stingy; after all, each card is embedded with a diamond weighing 20 carats, making each card worth over fifty thousand yen!
When Erlang Hattori saw the words on the business card, his eyes widened and he started to speak with a stutter.
"Honorary director? Yumura Co., Ltd?"
The director of Yumura Society was personally meeting the manager of his small factory?
"Don't believe it?" Uesugi Kiyoshi took out his phone, found Yumura Hideyoshi's number, and handed it over. "Want to ask President Yumura?"
Erlang Hattori glanced at the phone, feeling like he'd been pricked by a needle, and quickly waved his hands, "No need, no need… But Mr. Uesugi, why didn't you tell us your identity when you came last time?"
He couldn't help but feel some resentment in his heart.
Is he teasing him? If he had known the identity of this young man earlier, he wouldn't have dared to play these tricks.
Uesugi Kiyoshi snorted coldly and his tone became more severe, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Besides, he didn't even know what his own identity was when he came last time!
Erlang Hattori quickly apologized, looking scared.
"Forget it, let's focus on the important matters first, Mr. Hattori."
