Chapter Seventy-Four: The Friendship of Monarchs and Ministers
"Bang, bang!" was fired twice in a row, the first shot, the old man fell to the ground, and the second shot, the picture disappeared.
The short video of less than ten seconds was shocking to everyone present, this is clearly the surveillance video of Heiji Yamaguchi when he killed his father, it should have been destroyed by Heiji in the first place, why did it appear in Hakumashio's bracelet?
Seeing Heiji looking at himself in extreme shock, Bai Maxiao responded with an even more surprised expression, he didn't know why he said that the recording of the cooperation with Wu Zhi was actually turned into a video of Heiji's father killing at this time?
"As I said, the first to step often falls into the trap. And I gave you two chances when you took the first step, and you could have stopped, but you wanted to kill me so much that you hurt yourself. ”
Takeshi's words echoed in Heiji's mind, what he said was not wrong, if Heiji had seen it for the sake of his brother for many years a few minutes ago, and for the sake of his father's last wishes, he could have stopped it and not presented the evidence that he thought could kill Takeshi, it would not have been the result now.
"Why...... You can't get it!" Heiji shouted in disbelief, his emotions almost broken.
"Not everyone under your command is loyal to you and ignores the president, who in their hearts is also their father. It's a pity that your own son can do such a thing. Wu Zhi did not have the posture of a winner, but said very sadly.
Ping Er took a few steps back, shaking his head in despair, obviously only one step away from success, why did it become like this? His eyes swept over every stunned face on the scene, and finally fell on Xiao Hui's face, which was still smiling, and his murderous aura suddenly soared, "You woman!
"Bang!" is the same gunshot, the same shooter, the same murderous spirit as in that video, but the difference is that this time someone is in front of the victim.
Wu Zhi was shot in the right shoulder, and the scene was immediately in an uproar, and all the bodyguards outside the door rushed in and stood behind their respective bosses, but only Ping Er's bodyguards stood in the distance, looking at Ping Er with disdain.
These were all seen by Heiji, and he snorted coldly, "It seems that my people have betrayed me a long time ago." Takeshi Watanabe, since you have already won, why don't you just kill me!"
Takeshi endured severe pain, leaned on the table, and said in a trembling voice, "I have been giving you a chance, if you can inherit the will of the president, I can follow the president's wish for harmony between our brothers and endure everything from you." But you want to bring the new mouth group to the darkness of the past, I will never tolerate it!"
"Don't say it's so great! You dare to say that Kenjiro Toyama's death has nothing to do with you! We are all the same people!"
Wu Zhi suddenly straightened up and rushed to Heiji's face, and Heiji subconsciously pressed his head with a gun.
"Pinger, we are different, the president values you so much, but you disappointed him three or four times, and finally killed him ruthlessly, when it comes to ruthlessness, I will never be as good as you. ”
Heiji pressed the gun hard at Takeshi's head, his hands trembled with excitement, and he shouted hoarsely, "Heavy?!He will never look at me squarely! His mouth will always be the name Watanabe Takeshi! From childhood to adulthood, everything I did was wrong!"
"That's because you don't understand the president!" Wu Zhi's eyes suddenly reddened, it was not anger, but a kind of regret, "What the president wants is always your peace, your mother died of violence, what he wants is the underworld empire without violence, a militarized society with discipline." You know, since we were children, the president wanted us to live together peacefully, and when we were twelve years old, we broke that armor, and if you can confess your mistakes together as we have agreed, the president will not get angry, let alone punish you, he will only be gratified. But you, you never understand the president, you always only care about yourself!"
"Don't mention that to me, that's when I realized that he only has you in his eyes!"
"Then why did the president appoint you as the next president?!"
Hei Er's hideous expression instantly froze, and he was stunned for half a minute before he said in disbelief, "What?
Takeshi lowered his head, "Miss Takahashi, the letter of appointment that the president gave you before his death can be taken out." ”
Hidden Arashi sighed and took out a letter from his bosom, with the three big characters "Letter of Appointment" written on the cover with a brush, "This is what Mr. Yamaguchi gave me five years ago, and he asked me to appoint the next president according to this letter of appointment if he dies." ”
Heiji couldn't believe it at all, and Takeshi shook his head helplessly, "Miss Takahashi, can you please read it out?"
Hidden Lan did not refuse, opened the seal, and there were two in the envelope, the first was a standard letter of appointment, nothing special, and the book stated that the president was taken over by Heiji Yamaguchi. And when he opened the second one, Hidden Arashi's expression was slightly stunned, "This is a letter from Mr. Yamaguchi to Heiji Yamaguchi, and I need to ...... it."
"Please read it. Wu Zhi stared at Heiji, who was a little lost and depressed, and said slowly.
This shouldn't have been Yin Zhilan's business, but at this time, the order of this venue was a little out of control, and she also hoped that this letter would make Heiji put down his gun, so she read without hesitation, "Heijiwuer, when you read this letter, you are already the new president of the Xinkou Group." For many years, I have wanted to make Shinkou a safe haven where you can grow up with peace of mind, and this is also my promise to your mother, and over the years, I have done it. I'm not a good father and didn't leave you with good memories, but what I can do is leave Takeshi Watanabe to you. Takeshi's father was a good brother to me, and until his father died, I and his father were best friends, and without him, I might not have been able to sit as president. That's why I've always hoped that you and Takeshi would be like me and his father, like Genyoshitsune and Musashibo Benkei. I know that Wu Zhi will be a good retainer, but you can't tolerate him everywhere, perhaps because my education since childhood has made you misunderstand and make you have a gap in your heart about Wu Zhi. The fact that the monarch and the minister can't know each other is the last thing I want to see. Now that you're the president, let's get along with Takeshi, I can see that Takeshi has the loyalty of Musashibo Benkei, and at the same time has the courage of Akechi Mitsuhide, I hope he can assist you and bring Shinguchi to a better future. ”
Bai Maxiao has been an audience on the side, witnessing the reversal of the plot wave after wave, and hearing that it was still a bitter ending in the end, the father who clearly loved his son but couldn't express it, was killed by his son who completely misunderstood him, and then left a suicide note in advance, true confession, his son confessed and admitted his mistakes, quite a vulgar plot, but he didn't expect that such a thing would really happen in reality, if the two of them communicated well, there would be no such tragedy, is the father of the big family so nervous?
But hearing the end of this letter, Hakuma Shino heard that Ichiro Yamaguchi was warning Heiji, this Musashibo Benkei and Akechi Mitsuhide are both retainers of ancient Japanese daimyos, the former serves Genyoshitsune, and the latter follows Oda Nobunaga, but the two retainers treat the head of the family very differently, Musashibo Benkei died to protect Minamoto Yoshitsune, and Akechi Mitsuhide launched the Honnoji Revolution and killed Oda Nobunaga, which is obviously saying that Takeshi can be as loyal to the lord as Musashibo Benkei, or as Akechi Mitsuhide can turn against each other.
However, it turns out that the old man Yamaguchi expected it very accurately, and now Takeshi is obviously anti-guest-oriented. But it's really ironic, Heiji Yamaguchi always thought that his father loved Takeshi and alienated him, but in the end he kindly reminded him that Takeshi might rebel against him.
However, Bai Maxiao ignored the fact that the old man would never have dreamed that he would die at the hands of his son.
After listening to Yin Zhilan's recitation, the people present all fell into deep thought and expressed their regret over this tragedy. Except for Yamamoto Zeki, who still sat there indifferently, habitually snorting from time to time, as if he was familiar with such a tragedy, and it was not strange.
Heiji also gradually put down the gun, and the atmosphere gradually eased.
Looking at Heiji, who had lost everything, Bai Maxiao only felt very relieved, this was indeed the same as what Wu Zhi said, such a result was more suitable for him than directly assassinating him. Iori's revenge was finally avenged, and Hakuma Shino breathed a long sigh of relief, everything catered to what Takeshi said to him that night, if the assassination was really successful, it would definitely not be as relieved as it is now, but would have caused a lot of trouble.
"Heiji, you didn't have to do anything to get everything you are trying so hard to get now, but unfortunately, you were in too much of a hurry. Wu Zhi shook his head helplessly, "And now, you can only accept your ending." ”
Heiji didn't speak, but dropped the gun, maybe this was his attitude, gladly accepting.
"According to the instructions of the president, according to the rules of the association, if you kill your fellow door, you should send it to the traffic police department and hand it over to the official trial. At the same time, the expulsion will be carried out. ”
As her words fell, Wu Zhi beckoned two of his subordinates to control Heiji, looking at him who was lost and depressed, Wu Zhi said in a deep voice, "If you want to repent, just confess in prison, decades later, the Xinkou Group is still yours." ”
By then, Heiji won't have the momentum he has now.
Hei Er's eyes were confused, he approached Wu Zhi, and said with a smile, "This is the ending you want, isn't it?"
"I said I was willing to open the way for you, but you didn't want to wait for me. ”
Heiji sneered, leaned closer, and said in Takeshi's ear, "If you just want to avenge my father, you can just hand over the video, but with Uncle Toyama here, you, the president, will definitely be unstable." So you simply kill Uncle Toyama to pave the way for you in the future. Takeshi Watanabe, in terms of vision, Akechi Mitsuhide is not as good as you. ”
Wu Zhi turned his head slightly, smiled, and said in a calm tone, "You're too worried." I'm nowhere near as good as Akechi Mitsuhide, and if I had to say it, I think you're Akechi Mitsuhide, and I'm just Toyotomi Hideyoshi. ”
Heiji looked at him, suddenly laughed, and left the venue under the eyes of everyone.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi, like Akechi Mitsuhide, was Oda Nobunaga's retainer, and after Oda Nobunaga was forced to death by Akechi Mitsuhide, Toyotomi Hideyoshi defeated Akechi Mitsuhide in the name of revenge and became Oda Nobunaga's successor, ending the Warring States period and unifying Japan.
