There was once a somewhat far-fetched remark by a lesser-known man who said that everything in the world is fundamentally connected, and that there is a delicate equilibrium; It's like meeting the right person in the right place creates a weird illness called the love at first sight symptom.

If that balance is broken, it will lead to a situation that will affect the whole body, and even cause the entire world to collapse.

Don't ask me why I feel this way, to be honest, I've been kneeling in the tea room of the Takahashi family for three hours when the above passage comes to mind.

That damn Yumi Takahashi didn't say anything to me, just asked me to kneel quietly across from her and watch her make tea.

The calves had already begun to go numb, and I had no doubt that if their toes could make sounds, they would have been crying out in agony by now.

"Well, that...... How many times do you have to brush the bowl with a brush? I couldn't help but ask.

"Call me Yumi." Yumi Takahashi glared at me dissatisfied, "You are really a person who is in Fuli and does not know how to be blessed. Do you know how many people imagine you sitting across from me like this and watching me make tea? It's only been three hours now, and you can't stand it anymore, how can you live up to my expectations of you! ”

I snorted angrily, "It doesn't matter how many people he wants to marry you, but you have to understand that there are absolutely no one among those many people!" ”

"Am I not beautiful enough?" Yumi stopped what she was doing and looked up at me.

"It's beautiful."

"Isn't my family rich enough?"

"The Takahashi Group is also a highly ranked company in the world."

"Then why don't you want to be my fiancé?"

I smiled wryly: "Feelings are not something that can be measured with a simple ruler. ”

Yumi stood up lightly and walked until she could smell my breath before kneeling down again.

She raised her hands and gently touched my face, looked at me for a long time, and then smiled slightly, "You are really strange. When I first saw you, I thought I was dreaming, and I wondered how I could dream of such an idiot man, but now it seems that you are not stupid. ”

"Did I ever say I was stupid?" I said sourly.

"Since everyone is not stupid, let's get straight to the point." Yumi kept the smile on her face, lowered her voice, and asked, "How much do you know about the Takahashi Group?" ”

"Not too much." I was in high spirits and thought: "After World War II, the Japanese government vigorously supported the national industry and directly financed four large companies in the electronics, information, and automobile industries, creating the so-called four strong countries in Japan today.

"However, your Takahashi Group was a standout, choosing the relatively cold import and export trade at that time, and quickly made a windfall. Then your grandfather Mitsuo Takahashi began to buy small and medium-sized companies, no matter what type of company, almost all of them came and quickly integrated them into the Takahashi Group's unique economic system. ”

I licked my lips: "Your grandfather's business skills are very accurate, even if the economic war between Japan and the United States failed, and when the bubble crisis broke out in Japan, the Takahashi Group has always been the green soil of Japan, your family has been rich for more than 20 years, and there are almost no major mistakes and twists and turns in business, so that the whole of Japan, and even the senior management of many large foreign companies have many suspicions about you." "Some people think you are mysterious, but one thing everyone knows is that your family's money is definitely no less than the treasury!"

A hint of consternation appeared on Yumi's face, "I didn't expect you, a smart person, to know so much. ”

"What, are you starting to look at me?" I smirked slightly.

"It's a little bit, really." Yumi gently pushed the tea to me and asked, "What do you think of the current situation of the Takahashi Group?" ”

I picked up the tea and sniffed it, then took a sip with my eyes narrowed.

"Danger lurks! It is not too much to use this idiom to describe the current Takahashi Group.

"Since your grandfather inexplicably turned into a vegetative person two years ago, the crisis that he was forced to suppress and lurk under the surface of the water has gradually begun to be exposed.

"But I really admire your sister, her skills and style are no worse than your grandfather, and her business acumen and vision are even more accurate than your grandfather, so if she is here, there should be no major problems for the Takahashi Group for the time being."

"Awesome!" Yumi stared at me sharply for a long time before she said, "No matter how you look at you, you don't look like an ordinary person, who are you?" ”

I smiled and lazily played Tai Chi with her, "I'm sorry, I'm just an ordinary tourist." If I want to put it far-fetched, it is an ordinary high school student who has stumbled on his high school course, deceived his parents, and then ran to Japan for a trip to Japan out of boredom. ”

"Where are you ordinary?" Yumi looked me up and down, and finally let out a long sigh: "Forget it, if you don't say it, I won't force you." Let's make a deal. ”

"What deal?"

Yumi continued to stir the tea leaves in the bowl with a brush and whispered, "You be my fiancé for a month, try to play this role well, and I will fulfill any requests you have during this period." ”

She brought her small pale red lips to my ear, exhaled softly, and said, "Even if you want me to make a promise." ”

I shuddered, my whole body softened, but my brain didn't stop thinking about the benefits of this deal.

I've been searching for the secrets of the black box and the curse it brings, but after all, I'm only one person, and I'm too weak. Perhaps with the abundant financial resources of the Takahashi Group and the intelligence system that spreads throughout Japan, some clues may be found.

"Usa, it's a Japanese place name, and before World War II, everything that was produced there was marked with the word Usa. I want you to do everything in your power to track down the detailed location of this place. I stared into her eyes and said seriously.

"Deal." Yumi looked back at me in a slightly disappointed tone: "It's really disappointing. You are absolutely abnormal, and you are not even tempted by a beauty like me, are you gay? ”

"You're Lesbian!" I didn't laugh angrily, and asked in a deep voice, "You can tell me now, why do you want me to pretend to be your fiancé?" ”

Yumi's expression immediately darkened.

"What I'm telling you now, it's still top secret in the company, and you must not tell anyone."

After seeing me nodding, she lowered her eyes and continued in a hoarse voice that was almost about to cry: "My sister Lianyi suddenly disappeared five days ago......"
