After having their fill at the ramen restaurant, Chongzong and Van slowly walked towards the parking lot.
-
It wasn't that Chongzong didn't want to walk fast or was in no hurry, but he was simply too full to take big steps.
-
As they neared the parking lot, Van received a call from Manranyama Souren.
-
"Alright, please wait for about five minutes, I'll call you back." (Van)
-
Saying this, Van turned to Chongzong and said, "Miss says she needs to hold a conference call, let's find a quiet and secluded place."
-
"I suggest we have the meeting in the car, what do you think, Lord Uesugi?" (Van)
-
"Well, we're almost at the parking lot, and the car also meets the requirements of being quiet and hidden." (Chongzong)
-
So, five minutes later, Van and Chongzong got into the car and dialed Manranyama Souren's number on the phone's speaker.
-
"Miss, we are ready." (Van)
-
Although it was just a phone call, besides being respectful in tone, Van's demeanor was also very deferential.
-
She truly respected Manranyama Souren from the bottom of her heart.
-
"First, tell me about the situation on your end." (Manranyama Souren)
-
"I'll listen while I eat." (Manranyama Souren)
-
From the other end of the phone came the sound of chopsticks and bowls clinking.
-
Manranyama Souren is really someone who maximizes the use of every moment.
-
Therefore, Van and Chongzong reported in detail to Manranyama Souren everything that had happened that day.
-
By the time they finished reporting, Manranyama Souren had also finished eating.
-
"If it has reached this point, there is indeed no way to continue pursuing it." (Manranyama Souren)
-
"But you have done very well, with so many accomplishments in just one morning." (Manranyama Souren)
-
After that, Manranyama Souren briefly synchronized the communication she had in the morning, securing the support of heavyweight judges and lawyers in Kyoto.
-
This means that as long as there is concrete evidence, Bai Yaxin can be convicted without worrying about being able to buy his way out.
-
This is great news for them.
-
After all, in terms of power and influence, Bai Yaxin has an overwhelming advantage.
-Even if he commits numerous crimes, even if the evidence catches up to him, he still has the ability to turn black into white, to distort the truth.
-
-Now, ManranyamaSouren has secured the support of the judge, so there is no need to worry about such a situation happening, bringing both parties back to the starting line.
-
-But how did ManranyamaSouren accomplish this?
-
-Chongzong was very curious, but he didn't ask.
-
-To gain something is to lose something.
-
-Receiving help from someone unrelated also means that the other party has gained something of equal value.
-
-It can only be said that if Chongzong were to attempt such a task, he would be at a loss, and it is precisely because of this that he admires ManranyamaSouren so much.
-
"Lord Uesugi, I regret cutting off the clues to your family, but please don't worry too much. Bai Yaxin is not a foolish person; he wouldn't act against your family without reason." (ManranyamaSouren)
-
As the conversation was about to end, ManranyamaSouren suddenly said this.
-
Even though it was abrupt, she cared about Chongzong's thoughts and accurately conveyed them to him.
-
"Well, I understand. Thank you." (Chongzong)
-
Afterwards, Van drove to pick up ManranyamaSouren, while Chongzong, taking a different route, got off the car voluntarily and took a bus home.
-
Waiting for him at home were unexpected individuals.
