Kojimachi Ward is the highest-class of all the prefectures in Tokyo, and is known to ordinary people as the first ward in Japan.

Although Kojimachi Ward does not have the commercial prosperity of Minato Ward, nor the crowds of Nihonbashi Ward, nor the strong cultural atmosphere of Kanda Ward, these are not the only wards in Japan.

Because Kojimachi is home to the Emperor, a figure that is deeply admired by all Japanese people, this title is a term that they are in awe of, but it is an important figure for dignitaries and dignitaries who want to get closer.

Under these circumstances, all of Japan's most powerful and wealthy people moved to Kojimachi Ward, which is the administrative hub of the whole country, home to most of Japan's top administrative departments, and it is for these reasons that Kojimachi is the first ward in Japan.

You can see a large area of modern prosperity on every street in Kojimachi Ward, where a large number of luxurious buildings stand and the streets of the ward are filled with well-dressed and successful people.

You won't see a lot of refugees anywhere else in Japan here in Kojimachi because of the tight security.

There will be police officers patrolling the entire Koji town area 24 hours a day, and these police officers will go up to check those who are not neatly dressed, and if there is no problem, the person who is questioned will be driven out of the Koji town area, or they will be taken away and imprisoned directly, and they will be charged with disturbing the peace, and when they will be released again, it depends on the mood of those police masters.

It was in this harsh situation that Kojimachi gradually became a special area for dignitaries and dignitaries, a forbidden area for ordinary people, because no ordinary people wanted to be arrested for no reason, so the environment here is surprisingly safe, as if this is a paradise that has not experienced war.

Marunouchi is a ward town located in Kojimachi Ward, and like the rest of the district, it is a bustling area with high-rise buildings everywhere, and the Iwasaki family lives in this town.

When it comes to the Iwasaki family, few people will know it, but if you talk about the word "Mitsubishi", I am afraid that few Japanese people will not know it.

After all, with the reputation of Mitsubishi Chaebol, one of the four major chaebols in Japan, there are a few people in Japan who dare to say that they have not heard of it.

It is for this reason that the town is also called 'Mitsubishi Town' by outsiders, because of the four major chaebols in Japan, where their family lives alone occupy nearly one-third of the Marunouchi area, and most of the remaining land is built by the Mitsubishi Group into the core building of its own group.

Different from other buildings in Japan, the overall appearance of the building reveals a strong Western atmosphere, this is the residence of the Iwasaki family, and the building with a Western atmosphere was built by Iwasaki Yanosuke who returned from a study tour in the United States.

(The founder of the Mitsubishi Foundation is Yataro Iwasaki, Yasuke Iwasaki's identity is Yataro Iwasaki's younger brother, this person is a very strategic person, the Mitsubishi Foundation was taken over by him after the death of Yataro Iwasaki, and during this period he expanded Mitsubishi's capital several times, and his credit is second only to his brother who started a business)

When the house was first built, it not only had an impact on the Japanese people at that time, but also caused many foreign friends to come to Tokyo to surprise and praise, so this Iwasaki family house is also known as "One London".

In a room in the center of the Iwasaki family's residence, the room was already full of people, all of whom were the core of the Mitsubishi family.

Everyone who went out thought they were quite famous figures, but none of these people made a sound here, because at this time they were sitting at the helm of the Mitsubishi Group, Hisaya Iwasaki, the son of Yataro Iwasaki.

In front of this, none of the well-known Iwasaki family members in the house dared to behave presumptuously.

Looking at the clansmen sitting below, Iwasaki Hisaya gently rubbed his frowning brows, the Iwasaki family has been too busy recently because of the eventful season, not only is his cousin Iwasaki Koya too seriously ill and bedridden, (Iwasaki Koya is the son of Iwasaki Yanosuke, and when Iwasaki Kuya was not an adult, he was managing Mitsubishi) The group is facing an unprecedented crisis.

Today, Iwasaki Kuya brought these people in the hope of discussing with everyone how to deal with the order issued by MacArthur, commander-in-chief of the US Allied Forces in Japan on November 1 last year, to dissolve the chaebol.

For this request of the Americans, cousin Iwasaki Koya resolutely resisted the implementation, but in the past month, as his cousin was seriously ill and bedridden, Iwasaki Kuya found that his family's situation had become very passive.

If he hadn't made a decision, Iwasaki Hisaya was sure that the American commander, who had terrified the Japanese, would have taken action against their family, and if things had come to that point, it would have been too late.

And yesterday the Imperial Tibetan Minister Shibusawa Keizo came to visit him, and had a long talk with him, so that Iwasaki Kuya knew that the current situation was no longer something he could go against and reverse, and finally he said that he needed to think about it and reply in three days.

In fact, since talking to the Tibetan Prime Minister Shibusawa Keizo, Iwasaki Kuya has already had the answer in his heart, but Mitsubishi is not his alone, although he is the patriarch of the Iwasaki family, but when there is something serious, he still needs to inform the rest of the family.

"I think you should have a rough idea of what is going on with you today, and the thing is about the order of the Americans to dissolve the chaebol.

Since November 1 last year, when the government issued this order, our Iwasaki family has been trying our best to maneuver, not only contacting Mitsui, Sumitomo, and Yasuda family, but also looking for some connections within the government, but to no avail.

This time the Americans were determined to carry out this order, and the empire was now powerless to resist at all, so it could only carry out what it wanted.

Because the Americans think that the plutocracy will bring great danger to the government, that it is not in line with their rule, and it will cause great instability to their rule.

Therefore, the Americans demanded that the chaebol be forcibly dissolved, and it was very unfortunate that the Mitsubishi Group of our Iwasaki family was also included in the list of chaebols by the Americans, so now our Mitsubishi of the Iwasaki family is facing the crisis of being dissolved and dismembered immediately. ”

Speaking of this, Iwasaki Kuya stopped his voice and gave the people in the family below a good time to absorb the words he had just said.

After a short while, Iwasaki Kuya watched the following discussion disappear before he spoke again and continued: "Yesterday the three people of the Tibetan Prime Minister Shibusawa Kei came to me, and he told me that MacArthur, the barbaric commander of the Americans, had made a final announcement to the Japanese government. ”

"Let the government convince us within a week, otherwise he will take matters into his own hands, and Shibusawa asked me to come up with a decision on behalf of the government, because if the deadline is passed, the government will not be able to protect us, after all, the power of the Americans is too great now." ”

"In the end, I told Shibusawa that I would give him an answer in three days, and my opinion on this matter is to obey, to follow the advice of the Americans, and to do what they say, and only then will our government win for us some favorable conditions for us, otherwise our Iwasaki family will not get anything, well, now you can give your opinion. ”

But before the talkers of the Iwasaki family below could speak, the door of the house was slammed open from the outside, which made everyone in the house a little shocked.

You must know that when they were in a meeting, there were a lot of bodyguards guarding outside, and if they could enter the house so suddenly, something serious must have happened, otherwise this situation would not have happened, and this was also Iwasaki Kuya's idea, so he didn't reprimand the family housekeeper who rushed in recklessly.

"Lord Kumi, just now there was news from the hospital that Mrs. Komi has passed away. ”

When the housekeeper Hizuo Hoda entered the door, he told a message with a shocking line, and immediately shocked everyone in the house to their feet.

These people couldn't help but be shocked, and Iwasaki Koyata, the chairman who led Mitsubishi to successfully and steadily develop when Iwasaki Kuya was not an adult, died of illness.

After Iwasaki Kuya heard the words of the housekeeper Hisao Hoda, he suddenly felt that the world was spinning, he didn't expect his cousin to die of illness so soon, and it was at the time when the family was in the most danger, which made his heart a lot darker all of a sudden, I don't know if his cousin's death represents a crisis in Mitsubishi's future.

In fact, Iwasaki Hiyaya didn't know that in another time and space, Iwasaki Koyata died of illness on December 2, 1945.

And now in this time and space, because of the appearance of the chaotic character of Chi Shang Zhenyi, Iwasaki Koyata, a character who should have died a month ago, has lived an extra month, if Iwasaki Kuya knew that things were like this, maybe he would be happy for his cousin.
