In an apartment somewhere in Ebisu, Tokyo, after a short and urgent doorbell rang, Riku Watanabe opened the door and greeted the people outside the door, "Mr. Oda, please come in." ”

"Excuse me. Yuzo Oda changed into disposable slippers in the hallway and walked into the room. This comfortable and spacious one-bedroom apartment is Watanabe's residence in Tokyo, and Watanabe's hometown has an entire building in Kyoto, and he is an out-and-out local tycoon.

"How's Ye Jun's state?" asked Yuzo Oda.

Riku Watanabe pointed to the balcony, "It seems to be a little too laid-back." Yuzo Oda walked over, Ye Zhao sat on the ground, holding Lu's bass of Watanabe, and played according to a copy of "Bass Performance Tutorial".

"How do you feel like you're not affected at all?" said Yuzo Oda playfully.

"On the contrary, I'm in a terrible mood. Ye Zhao put down the bass and stood up, "Mr. Oda, how is the information gathered?"

"It's all right. That Mika Ogawa moved from the lounge in Shinjuku to Akasaka in June this year, but she didn't mix well there, and she changed her new flower name, no longer called 'Wakatsuki', but now called 'Miyo'. ”

Yuzo Oda sent a staff member sent by BEING to assist Ye Zhao, and after being surrounded by reporters that night, Ye Zhao contacted Watanabe Riku, Watanabe Lu drove to the apartment, and Akihiko Aragaki took the staff disguised 'Ye Zhao' and left in a nanny car, and when the reporter's attention was attracted, the real Ye Zhao was brought back to his apartment in Ebisu by Watanabe Riku.

After that, Ye Zhao got in touch with Nagato Daiyuki overnight, and after explaining the truth of the matter, he proposed his solution: Mika Ogawa was afraid that the news was not big enough, so she took out the fake photo, although the man in the photo is very similar to Ye Zhao, but after all, he is not the deity, so as long as it can be proved that it is a fake photo, things will turn around.

Nagato Daiyuki is not very enthusiastic about investigating the truth, and in his opinion, there are only two ways for singers to become full-time songwriters after such scandals, to hide behind the scenes and become full-time songwriters, or to rely on the accumulation of high-quality music to make listeners forget about these scandals. Unless evidence can be obtained to turn things around, if it is only innocuous testimony, it will only continue to raise the heat of the scandal.

"There will be the necessary PR here, you might as well stay in retreat for a few days, go behind the scenes for a while, and wait until the popularity of the magazine cools down, and then we will arrange for you to come back slowly. "Nagato Daiyuki is not a troublemaker.

"At least let me try? I always felt that it wasn't that much of a problem. Ye Zhao struggled to fight.

Nagato Daiyuki on the other end of the phone pressed his swollen temples, only to feel that he had signed a hot potato, "Okay, a week at most." If you can't find a breakthrough, you'll have to listen to my arrangement. ”

"No problem. Ye Zhao agreed. Early the next morning, Yuzo Oda came to the door. When he was a teenager, he participated in the mobs in Tokyo and knew everything about the shadows. With his help, it was just a matter of convenience to collect information on a wine girl.

"Regarding the interpersonal relationships around her, her current boyfriend is called Kago Eisaku.,It's a man I met when I was drinking with him in Shinjuku.,It seems that he's quite rich in his hands.,When Mika Ogawa left Shinjuku,,,Threatened,'To go with him to live a good life',But now I don't know why I came out to accompany the wine again.。 ”

Ye Zhao sneered, "It's probably Mrs. Kuo's dream that woke up." THAN MIKA OGAWA'S SUDDEN ATTACK, HE WAS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT WHETHER THIS MATTER WAS USED BY BRUNING BY CHANCE, OR MIKA OGAWA POKED IT OUT AT THE BEHEST OF BRUNING.

In any case, if you want to make a breakthrough, you must first find the main master.

In the lounge where Mika Ogawa works, there is a deserted alley at the back of the building, and occasionally drunk guests or idle homeless people leave some obscene chalk drawings on the walls of the alley. When Ye Zhao found her, Mika Ogawa was sitting on the steps of the door, staring at the graffiti on the wall with a confused expression. Seeing Ye Zhao, she squinted her eyes and asked with some hesitation, "...... Ah Zhao?"

Ye Zhao put his hands in the pockets of his jacket, "I heard that you went to live a good life with a man who works in a bank?"

"How can you compare to you, if you don't pay attention, you will become a big man. Mika Ogawa smiled, got up from the steps, put her hands behind her back, and raised her face to look at Ye Zhao.

"Thanks to you, just a little bit of a sign of rising, it's not far from falling. Ye Zhao looked at her, "It's you, the annual salary of the bank elite will not be less than eight million yen, and he is willing to let you come out and continue to do this job?"

Mika Ogawa didn't take this stubble, "You came to me for the things reported by the magazine?

"It's not. Ye Zhao replied very simply, "The report has already been issued, and now it is useless for you to come out and clarify, maybe it will be regarded as being coerced by me." I don't want to add any more charges to this pile of bad scores. ”

"What's the matter, you seem to be disappointed after hearing my words?" Ye Zhao carefully paid attention to Mika Ogawa's expression.

“…… No. Mika Ogawa looked at the ground, "It's just a pity, I thought that if you were willing to talk well, I might change my mind." ”

"Change your mind?" Ye Zhao showed an interested expression, "Now that it's like this, do you still have a hand?"

Mika Ogawa laughed, "Fifty million." Give me 50 million, and I'll play this last card. ”

"Fifty million? gave it to you, and then what? What is the face of this card?" Speaking of this, Ye Zhao leaned forward, cut Ogawa Mika's arm back, and groped with her right hand around her waist, and a small tape recorder fell to the ground with a "click".

"Give you 50 million, and when you get the money, you will hand over the recording and transfer records to the magazine? Mika Ogawa, do you play people like fools?" Ye Zhao picked up the tape recorder that fell on the ground and played with it in his hand, but he secretly sighed in his heart, the predecessor actually died for such a woman.

Having seen through the means, Mika Ogawa seemed to have lost her last hope and muttered, "...... It's over. ”

"What?"

Mika Ogawa's eyes were full of resentment, "Kago happened to see a photo of me and you, and he plans to take this to the tabloid to exchange it for extra money." But the magazine guy said that only that one was not exciting enough, so he suggested that he take some pictures like that. ”

"The dignified banking elite did such a thing, you lied to the ghost?"

"Kago is not a banking elite at all, I learned after following him that he is just a thug in the lending business, that bastard, that bastard borrowed a large sum of money in my name to bet on horse racing, and lost it all, if I can't get the 50 million, I'm doomed!"

"So you thought of blackmailing me?"

“……”

"How much do you owe?"

"Eight million. Mika Ogawa said lifelessly.

"You owe 8 million, and you blackmailed me 50 million, your appetite is really good. Ye Zhao sneered.

"No, it's 1.17 million. There is also an interest of 3.7 million. Mika Ogawa smiled strangely, sat on the ground, took out a lady's cigarette and lit one, "Kago told me that you will definitely come to me after the news comes out, and when the time comes, record what you say, whether you give money or not, you can make another profit just by selling the recording." ”

"What would happen to you if I gave the money?"

"Take that money and fly away, get rid of that villain completely. Mika Ogawa said without blinking, "But now, there is no money, and there is no recording, so I have to resign myself to fate." ”

"Can I ask what that card you left behind?" Ye Zhao said suddenly.

Mika Ogawa glanced at him and didn't speak.

"I wonder if that card is worth 50 million. ”

"What do you mean?" Mika Ogawa looked a little.

Ye Zhao nodded, "Yes, if it's worth it, I'll give you the money." ”

"Then I told you, what should you do if you regret it?"

"You're not qualified to bargain with me now. Ye Zhao smiled and took out a small tape recorder from his pocket, "Just those words just now are enough for me to sue you for slander." ”

Mika Ogawa suddenly laughed, "Zhao, you're much more difficult than before. If you had been in the past, in order to calm things down, you would have agreed when I first proposed it. ”

"And then fall into your trap?"

Mika Ogawa ignored Ye Zhao's sarcasm and said in a low voice: "The man in the fake photo is called Fujimoto Liao, and he is the little brother of the rampant clan who used to follow Kago. If you still look at the old days, don't lie to me......"

……

The cigarette shop tucked away in a narrow alley is hardly visited by anyone unless it is for the regular customers around it. When Ryoshi Fujimoto returned, Grandma sat at the narrow counter of the cigarette shop, curled up, as she had done every day. Whenever he saw this scene, Fujimoto Liao felt a tingling in his heart.

But that's about it. Ryo Fujimoto, who lived with his grandmother after his father ran away from home, did not understand the hardships of life, but succumbed to the temptation of the flower world, joined the mob gang in high school, and became the kind of gangster he feared the most when he was a child. In order not to worry his elderly grandmother, Fujimoto Liao maintained a little bit of his true color in the end, did not leave an exaggerated airplane head, and did not shave his eyebrows to only the blue eyebrows, which at first glance looked no different from ordinary youth.

"Grandma, I'm back. As soon as Fujimoto Liao opened the counter door, he was stopped by a man with a flat head, many acne marks on his face, and sharp eyes, "Fujimoto Liaojun? The man pointed in the direction of the alleyway. Fujimoto followed his fingers and saw a gray sedan parked at the entrance of the alley, and the person in the back seat rolled down the window and made a "come" gesture to him. Seeing his face clearly, Fujimoto Liao felt that his scalp was a little numb.

There was a look of urging on the man's face. Grandma opened her cloudy eyes, "Xiao Liao?"

"It's a colleague at the store where I work, and I was asked to go out for something. Ryo Fujimoto lied as quickly as possible, followed the man to the alley, and got into the car together. After the door closed, the person in the driver's seat started the car.

Seeing Fujimoto Liao himself, Ye Zhao subconsciously looked at him, although the front face is not very similar, but the similarity of the side face is seventy or eighty percent, if you dress up a little, and then deliberately don't shoot the straight face, you can really scare people.

"I'll get straight to the point, Mika Ogawa told me that you are the person in the photo. ”

Fujimoto Liao chuckled in his heart, pretending to be stupid and said, "What photo?"

"Don't fool people, although your side face ,...... Well, it's a bit like me, but there's one thing you've missed. Ye Zhao's tone paused and hung the appetite of Hangtenmura Liao, "If you look closely at those two photos, you can see that there is a shallow scar on the right side of my neck, Fujimoto, can you see that there is one under my neck?"

Fujimoto Liao subconsciously covered his neck, and only then carefully checked Ye Zhao's words, and sure enough, his neck was clean. The hero didn't suffer the loss in front of him, Fujimoto Liao hurriedly lowered his head, "I'm really sorry, Ye Zhaosang, I didn't know that this matter would cause such a big trouble." ”

Bullshit. How could he not know about underage smoking, boat photos, and which one of them was not a scandal that would kill people? Ye Zhao sneered, "I'm sorry, is it useful? Now my life has been ruined by you." Fujimoto, you probably don't understand a truth, that is, people who have been cornered can do anything. ”

"Y-What are you going to do?" said Fujimoto in a trembling voice.

"So you know you're scared?" Ye Zhao narrowed his eyes, "I didn't think about anything, I just invited you to a lawsuit." I want to think about it, I don't know if you look at the sales charts, thanks to you, my new single fell all the way from the third place all the way out of the charts, plus the image was damaged, and the advertiser asked me to pay liquidated damages, about 200 million, right? ”

"Two, two hundred million?!" Fujimoto Liao gasped and shrunk his body.

"I heard that you only have one grandmother at home, and it is not easy for grandparents and grandchildren to depend on each other, so you don't want her to worry about you, right?"

At the mention of grandma, Fujimoto Liao was deflated and released his hole cards, "Ye Zhaosang, if I can help you clear up this matter, can you show mercy?"

"Help me clear up? Now that the photos in the magazine have found a flaw, and we're all about to sue the weekly, do we need you to do more?"

Fujimoto Liao gritted his teeth, "Even then, it's difficult without conclusive evidence, right?"

"Could it be that you have one?"

"I have!" Fujimoto's expression distorted for a moment, and then as if relieved, he exhaled a breath of turbidity.

……

Yuzo Oda followed Ryo Fujimoto back to the cigarette shop, and when Grandma saw the two of them going and returned, she asked, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, I borrowed his book before, just enough for him to take it back. Ryoshi Fujimoto said, and took Yuzo Oda into the room inside. I went up to the second floor, entered his room, opened the drawer, and took out a roll of film from it. "The negatives are here. ”

Yuzo Oda was skeptical, and Ryo Fujimoto turned on the fluorescent lamp so he could confirm it. Until it was determined that the content of the negatives was fine, Yuzo Oda put away the negatives and looked at Ryoshi Fujimoto, "Why did you repackage the negatives?"

Fujimoto Liao lowered his head, "I originally planned to send the negatives to Ye Zhaosang after a while, so that I could make some money." ”

"Next, if necessary, I have to ask you to cooperate with the provision of witnesses. With that, Yuzo Oda walked out of Ryo's house on his own.

……

"Ryo Fujimoto's father who ran away from home was a photography enthusiast and left him a lot of guys, and after Kago Eisaku planned the photos, he directly handed them over to him to take back and develop them. When he brought the fake negatives and photos to Kago, it happened to be at the club, the light was not very good, Kago drank some more wine, and Fujimoto Liao has always been loyal, so he burned it with a lighter without much confirmation. In the car, Yuzo Oda conveyed Fujimoto's confession to Ye Zhao.

Ye Zhao laughed sarcastically, "He made me suffer a little loss with fake photos, and let him taste the taste of planting on fake negatives." ”

"Then again, Ye Jun can actually see the scars on the fake photos?"

When I looked at him just now, I saw that he had a scar on his neck, and casually said it to deceive him. ”

Yuzo Oda gave a thumbs up, "By the way, what should I do with Mika Ogawa's recording?"

The smile on Ye Zhao's face faded, "Keep the original, and make another copy to give to Jiahu Rong." ”

"This ......" Yuzo Oda hesitated a little.

"Mr. Oda, I know it's a bit despicable. But I can't be so stupid as to be merciful to someone who tries to hurt me three times or twice. Ye Zhao's voice was unwavering.

"I see. Yuzo Oda nodded.

……

Two days later.

At four o'clock in the morning, Mika Ogawa, who had finished a night's work, dragged her tired body up the stairs of the apartment. Inserting the key into the lock, the doorknob turns open from the inside.

She was greeted with a smile like a demon in Kago.
