Chapter 505: 505

That night, Kawayoshi refused to drink a single glass of water before going to sleep, just in case Lu Shu would propose another round of urine-holding competition with him…

Their afternoon conversation had left Kawayoshi feeling uncomfortable for a long time . Speaking of which, he had never heard that this Yamada Akira was this annoying! Secretly he messaged his friend to inquire about Yamada .

After two hours, his friend had finally replied after asking those who used to be familiar with Yamada . Indeed, Yamada’s honesty had offended many, but it had also earned him Nogiwa Hakushun’s favor and recognition .

In fact, it was common that leaders preferred honest subordinates, for they would not have to worry about betrayals and unnecessary dramas .

And one had to admit that Nie Ting had made the right choice of posing Yamada’s role to Lu Shu .

Frankness tended to be associated with irritating behaviors . Kawayoshi dropped his suspicion upon seeing the message .

He believed that sooner or later he would be reemployed officially as a Head of Department, without the word “acting” .

By then, much trouble would have been saved with an honest person following him . That feeling could probably resonate with many leaders . And Kawayoshi thought that people who were too perfect were dangerous .

Fortunately, Lu Shu was unaware of that . Otherwise, he would do his best to prove the difference between being irritating purposely and unintentionally due to straightforwardness .

Then, many days had passed in peace, and both Kawayoshi and Lu Shu were waiting for the reemployment of the former…

Everyday Kawayoshi would call different girls to the warehouse and spend a range of time with them .

One day, it was done in as short as a few minutes . Out of curiosity, Lu Shu asked him why he was so fast .

That embarrassed Kawayoshi . From that day onwards, he would insist the girls talk to him for two hours before they were allowed to leave… When they ran out of topics, it felt so damned awkward!

After two hours, Kawayoshi checked his watch and finally walked out with a look of smug satisfaction . Lu Shu looked up into the sky, wondering how many days Kawayoshi could keep the long, awkward conversations going…

“Aren’t you tired? Doing that everyday?” Lu Shu asked curiously, “After all you are no longer…”

But Kawayoshi interrupted him . “I’m still young . Just over 30 . They say I look like a student . ”

Lu Shu studied him carefully, and suddenly found his excuse familiar because he had heard it in China too .

Nonetheless, the reality was not that simple .

Lu Shu pondered for two seconds before pointing out the truth . “You look like a student not because you are young, but that you look like a country bumpkin!”

“From Nagaya Kawayoshi’s distress, +777…”

In fact, the comment focused more on one’s fashion taste instead of their appearance . It was normal for many to start the pursuit of trendiness after graduation, and some sophomores, juniors, and even high school students had already begun to dress themselves up . But to the majority, students were the synonym of lacking in class .

Ouch! Kawayoshi decided not to continue with the conversation .

At this moment, they heard a loud roar of car engines, particularly jarring in the quiet, empty countryside . There were few residents in the region, except for a few factories .

Judging from the number of cars, they must have come for the warehouse, Lu Shu thought . But he was uncertain of who they were .

A rare look of seriousness appeared on Kawayoshi’s face . He even smoothed his clothes upon hearing the noise .

In less than five minutes, a car and four trucks stopped in front of the warehouse . As a young man alighted from the car, he shot Kawayoshi a brief glimpse, which immediately made the latter scuttle forward in an obsequious manner . Kawayoshi greeted him . “What brought you here, Kuriyama-san?”

“To transport four trucks of goods directly into the warehouse . I sent 20 men for you to order around . Teacher wants complete security of these goods . Understood? They won’t be stored for long, and will be carried away upon the official opening of the base next week . ” As he spoke, he did not even look at Kawayoshi again . Then, he took out a cigarette, and Kawayoshi immediately lit it for him .

Lu Shu’s face lit up . That was Takashima Tairatsu’s apprentice . Lu Shu could tell he was perhaps at the peak of Class C .

But Kawayoshi proved to be not as impressive as he boasted . He was just a lucky man who had happened to follow the right person . During their conversation, twenty men got off from the seven trucks . They locked the doors again before reporting to Kuriyama .

Upon seeing Lu Shu, Kuriyama asked, “Who is he?”

“He is Yamada Akira, mistaken to be a pro-Conservative just like me . He used to be Nogiwa Hakushun’s driver and assistant, but now he follows me . It’s alright,” Kawayoshi replied with a grin . Then, he whispered to Kuriyama’s ear rapidly, “A mere Class D beginner . No worries . I can kill him anytime if he causes any problems . ”

Meanwhile, Lu Shu was awaiting further instructions beside them with an innocent look .

The young man paid no more attention to Lu Shu, because a small fry like him was not worthy of his attention . Then, Kuriyama turned to Kawayoshi and said, “No errors with the goods are tolerable . Take care of yourself at night . Rest assured that Teacher did not abandon you and you will be assigned the Head of Department for Security and Defense at the new base later on . ”

“Thank you Kuriyama-san! Please extend my gratitude to Lord Takashima too!” Kawayoshi was ecstatic . Unlike the security manager of some random hotels, that position had real power!

At this moment, someone shouted in Japanese from one of the four trucks, “Damn you, Takashima! You are even willing to sacrifice your own people! We used to be your supporters!”

Lu Shu was dumbstruck . He did not expect the so-called goods to be Practitioners from the Collection of Gods! What’s going on? Furthermore, judging from his words, he was likely to be a Jingoist!

Kuriyama’s face darkened . “Drive the trucks into the warehouse, Hurry up . Nagaya, this is not your first time doing this . You know the consequences if anything happens . ”

“Please rest assured . I will not fail Lord Kuriyama’s and Lord Takashima’s trust,” replied Kawayoshi, who made a deep, respectful bow .
