For this reason, Yakushiji Ryoko has been secretly trying to eliminate the pollution recently. She has asked many psychics to help and even contacted many ascetics on Mount Osorezan. But judging from the "commands" received previously, Ryoko Yakushiji's attempt was obviously a failure. The person behind the scenes can still influence Yakushiji Ryoko through pollution, and the only incident related to the person behind the scenes is the kidnapping of the minister's daughter this time. "Put the Countermeasures Room on the list of options as well." Ryoko Yakushiji said coldly. "Yes." Wannian Lanzi took out a shorthand notebook from her pocket, wrote "Ministry of the Environment Countermeasures Office", tore off the paper and pasted it on the small blackboard next to her. At this time, six labels were already pasted on the small blackboard: 'Nura Group', 'Hagoromo Group', 'Bujinshu', 'Metropolitan Police Department', and 'SDS'. Mannen Arashi put the label of 'Countermeasures Room' at the very top, parallel to the Nura Group. These two groups are also the organizations that Ryoko Yakushiji believes are most likely to be related to the person behind the scenes. As for whether it is accurate or not, Yakushiji Ryoko doesn't care. She only cares about which company will gain the most benefits afterwards. Looking at the blackboard with many notes on it, Yakushiji Ryoko couldn't help but narrow her eyes and said:
"The newly established Countermeasures Office will definitely gain the Minister's favor through this action of rescuing the Minister's daughter. This can also make the Minister of the Ministry of the Environment, who originally did not support the Countermeasures Office, change his original intention." "Except for the Nura Clan, who have been enemies of the Hagoromo Clan for generations, the Countermeasures Room is the most suspicious." "The people I sent out have not been able to find any trace of the pure Sharon, which proves that there is probably someone helping Sharon hide." "There aren't many forces in the island nation that can do this." "In this regard, the Nura Group is more suspicious than the Countermeasures Office. After all, they have a large influence and a large number of people, and their ability to confuse people is stronger than that of the Countermeasures Office." "Arashi, next we will focus on monitoring the Nura clan's main family and the countermeasures room. I want first-hand information on any of their next actions." "Yes." Wannian Lanzi nodded in response. After saying this, Yakushiji Ryoko squinted her eyes and added: "In addition to these, please contact the warriors. The Yakushiji family is willing to provide them with the convenience of raiding the Hagoromo group." "?" Wannian Lanzi's face was slightly surprised when he heard this. But as a qualified maid, she just nodded after a brief moment of surprise, turned around and left to distribute Yakushiji Ryoko's instructions. After Wannian Lanzi left, Yakushiji Ryoko, who was wearing a light gauze, murmured to herself: "If you were not in the Nura Group or the Countermeasures Room, but in some other faction..." "Then, if the Hagoromo Group is further weakened, or even destroyed, will it allow you to reveal any flaws?" Ryoko Yakushiji was very curious about this, and she was already impatient to catch the person who ordered her. Who was it? - Inside a high-end sushi restaurant in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo. The bald chefs wearing white chef uniforms and towels tied on their heads are busy preparing sushi. However, the only guests they served were Luo Shu and Fujiwara Daichi.
Luo Shu, dressed in casual clothes, sat in front of the counter, next to him was Fujiwara Daichi, dressed in a suit. "It's a bit inappropriate to invite a rough guy like me to such a high-end place, isn't it?" Luo Shu picked up the nigiri sushi with his clean hands, dipped it in soy sauce and mustard, then put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully. "Don't worry, this time we are inviting Mr. Shu to our hospitality with public funds." Fujiwara Daishi said something that could easily touch the sensitive nerves of the people of the island. "Eating and drinking on public funds?" Luo Shu raised his eyebrows, glanced at the chefs pretending to be invisible, and then said: "In other words, the news of our meeting has been placed on the tables of many people?" Fujiwara Daichi just laughed and said, "The actions of the cabinet ministers are never secret." "Ah~" Luo Shu suddenly realized, then smiled and said, "Mr. Dadi seems to have any suggestions?" Fujiwara Daichi ate a piece of sushi, wiped his hands with a hot towel, and then said solemnly: "I would like to ask Mr. Shu to send Qianhua home." Chapter 308: Fujiwara Daichi's Recommendation "Oh?" Hearing Fujiwara Daichi's request, Luo Shu raised his eyebrows, and then said in a somewhat inexplicable tone: "In this case, Qianhua and even Daichi-kun may be on my side in the eyes of others." After Fujiwara Daichi had dinner with the new director of SDS, Fujiwara Chika was taken back and sent home. To outsiders, especially those in the cabinet, it seemed that Fujiwara Daichi had reached a cooperation with the SDS Minister Luo Shu, and even promised some conditions, in exchange for his daughter. In a sense, this is to announce to those who are interested what Fujiwara Daichi's next position will be. This is also the reason why Luo Shu said this. "There's nothing wrong with that. After all, when you live in this world, you need to have a seat." Fujiwara Daichi spoke a crude metaphor~. Upon hearing this, Luo Shu understood that Fujiwara Daichi had already made up his mind to join SDS. No, it should be about helping each other. You marry your daughter, I support you, this kind of 'mutual help'... Luo Shu muttered in his heart, and asked openly: "Does the old man of the Fujiwara family know about this?" Although Fujiwara Daichi has an older brother, he was deposed for committing a duty crime and is now seeking enlightenment in prison. Therefore, Fujiwara no Daichi is now the highest-ranking official in the Fujiwara family, but even though he holds the highest official position, the real head of the Fujiwara family is still the former prime minister and old patriarch. If Fujiwara Daichi wants to take sides, the old patriarch will not be able to hide from him. "The old man should be inclined to my eldest brother, but who made my eldest brother go to jail?" Fujiwara Daichi smiled, and it was a rather strange smile that seemed to be mixed with ridicule and dissatisfaction. What this means is that cooperation is possible, but the old patriarch would rather his eldest son who is in prison cooperate.
This is also the reason why Fujiwara Daichi has a complicated expression. It is my daughter who was sacrificed, and you want my eldest brother to come for the benefits, but what is he? Luo Shu didn't want to care about the power disputes of the Fujiwara family, and said in a calm tone: "I'll take Chika home later, um, personally." This was a statement of agreement to the alliance. After all, the three daughters of the Fujiwara family were all qualified to become members of the family. If Fujiwara Daichi's eldest brother could give him three daughters, Luo Shu might support him, but Luo Shu heard that the brother seemed to have only one son. Luo Shu can’t send his brother-in-law to Thailand, right? Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Daichi nodded slightly, then smiled and said: "Speaking of which, there will be a gathering among friends in a few days. I wonder if you have some free time?" It was called a gathering of friends, but in reality, anyone who could be friends with Fujiwara Daichi was no small figure. To put it bluntly, the network of relationships derived from his position as Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Products is a gathering of his own people. "Are you so anxious to pull me into your circle?" Luo Shu was a little surprised after hearing this and said, "Boy, you don't want to climb up a level, do you?" "Climb a little?" Fujiwara Daichi was stunned. He was already a minister. Although he inherited his brother's position, he was still a minister after all. If you go higher, you can only be the Prime Minister, which is the only position. Does he want to be prime minister? Fujiwara Daichi asked himself: "Do I have this ability?" When Luo Shu heard this, he curled his lips and said: "Whether I have the ability or not is none of my business. After all, the PM can communicate with the Supreme Speaker." "I am just a small minister of SDS. Fujiwara-kun, you don't think I can make you the prime minister, do you?" Although SDS is an official secret organization, the real giants in this world are still the five big gangsters, and SDS is just a big organization within one of the five big gangsters. To put it bluntly, the status of the SDS Supreme Speaker is probably similar to that of the Prime Minister of an island country. Luo Shu, the minister under the Speaker, and Fujiwara Daichi, the Minister, are exactly equal. Both parties are of equal status, both are people in the world of fame and fortune, and neither of them is nobler than the other. In this case, how can a person of lower status help another person of lower status to become a person of higher status? Luo Shu was clearly hinting that Fujiwara Daichi really wanted to contact Lux. Although Luo Shu actually has the ability to make Lux agree to this, isn't his skill in killing people strong? How could Luo Shu, who had never been an official in his two lives, understand the consensus of interests that needed to be reached in supporting a prime minister? So naturally, the battle should be left to the masters. "That's true."
Fujiwara Daichi laughed, subconsciously avoiding the previous topic, and said: "Speaking of which, how about SDS's development of new ingredients? If nothing unexpected happens, I can handle the production license." In modern society, you need a license to produce anything, even mysterious ingredients. The island country responsible for managing the production of raw materials is Fujiwara Daichi in front of us. . . 0 To a certain extent, all special ingredients produced by the mysterious organizations in the island country, as long as they are used externally, need to pass the approval of Fujiwara Daichi. Of course, under normal circumstances, Fujiwara Daichi would approve every product he saw, even if there was a slight problem with the food safety. Therefore, what Fujiwara Daichi said to Luo Shu now was to show that he could let SDS use something with stronger side effects to seize the market of special people. Anyway, people who know the business know the origins of special ingredients and their inevitable side effects, so the possibility of being held accountable after the ingredients are put on the market is actually very small. This is the magic of power. "SDS has obtained a lot of new ingredients recently. I guess they will develop some derivative products. The research department also said they want to cooperate with food companies. I wonder if Dadi-kun has any recommendations?" Because cooperation was almost inevitable, Luo Shu also changed his name to 'Mr. Earth', which was not so easy to pronounce, but could show closeness in the island country. Of course, he would rather call him 'father-in-law'. Hearing Luo Shu say this, Fujiwara Daichi thought for a moment and then said: “New food research?” "In that case, we need to find a professional who is more knowledgeable..." "Have it!" Fujiwara Daichi suddenly thought of someone, and asked Luo Shu: "I wonder if Luo Shu-kun knows the 'Gourmet Demon King' Nakiri Senzaemon?" Chapter 309 Immediate success 'The Gourmet Demon King' Nakiri Senzaemon? When Luo Shu heard the name, he couldn't help but blink and asked: "Is he the commander-in-chief of the Totsuki Group?" "Yes." Fujiwara nods and explains: "Nakiri Senzaemon controls a lot of industries, forestry, and land in the island country. He is a big landowner. He also has a lot of influence in the catering industry and runs the largest high-level chef training school in the island country." "If we want to conduct research on derivatives of new ingredients, he is indeed a good candidate." "Of course, most importantly, he is 'our' one."
Fujiwara Daishi couldn't help but chuckle when he said this: "Since Mr. Shu also knows him, I think he can judge that he is the best partner." No, I don’t know him, I know his granddaughter and granddaughter-in-law... Luo Shu complained a little in his heart. He is the grandfather of the heroines of the anime Food Wars!: Shokugeki no Soma, Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri. This is why Luo Shu knows Senzaemon Nakiri. To put it bluntly, it's just a bonus to see the beauty and get to know this character.
