The Old Master’s eyes which had turned blurry when looking far due to his old age narrowed on Kei’s words. Truthfully, there was one thing the Old Master hide from Li Lian on the call after eting Akasaka’s eldest son. Before Akasaka Haruhi left, he gave his word which still fresh to the Old Master and Kei’s mory.
’Li Lian could enjoy her ti in China a little longer then. I don’t want to force her either. In four months, I wonder if she would co here after hearing the news that Maple House is gone? I’m joking, I’m stating of the possibility but if Li Lian doesn’t co ho in either of this four months, it could also not be a joke.’
Back to present, the Old Master tore his gaze from the maple tree. His expression hardened. "That will never happen. We, Ryouma Clan had never heard anyone threatening us and the day when the house would be gone will also never co. It would be a great embarrassnt if it happen. Call everyone back ho, I will be holding a new eting."
"Should we include everyone of the lower position?" asked Kei.
"No, only the district heads. Also call Shun and Shin to ." Kei bowed to leave the Old Master’s side, making his way quickly toward Shun and Shin’s room to find how silent was in the room that felt odd. Both Shin and Shun had never been this quiet. Shun could be quiet as it wasn’t his habit to speak but it was strange for Shin’s room to also turn quiet without a single sound of whisper or lody.
Finding sothing wrong, Kei hurried to open Shin’s room that were the nearest to the hall to find that the lights were on but the person was missing. He then went to find Shun was also missing from his room. Once the Old Master know the news, anger ca to the old man and he yelled at everyone to hunt back his twin grandson who was stupid enough to disobey his words.
"I told you we shouldn’t run!" Shun said, his head aching because of his brother’s idea. He really shouldn’t believe his words!
"You agreed, no take backs, we are already here in Tokyo, it’s too late for you to regret what you chose. Let’s go." saying the words, Shin pulled him from the car where Shun was holding tight as if his life was on the line.
"I’m not going! I’m not going!" Shun was known for his cool headed nature but right now he couldn’t be any calr. His eyes snapped at the outside view where buildings were tall and lights coming bright from the buildings where the whole road that was dark turn bright. Even though it was pitch black at night, the city was bright. "Why are we here in Kabukicho! Not to ntion this is all motels here! Brother if you want to co to the red light district you could have co here alone!"
"Did you think I ca here for the sake of myself? We are going to the clubs not the red light districts," Shin felt his younger brother release his hand from the car.
Shun carefully turn his head at him. "Club is still out of the question."
"It is in because we are here to search about Haruhi. There should be less problem with people seeing us if we use mask and our face are not very much known to others in Tokyo," explained Shin who pulled the face mask to cover his brother’s face before himself.
"You know, I think we really shouldn’t have gone here, if we are found you know Akasaka could capture us, don’t you?" Shun spoke. They both went from the street to a place with lesser people.
"We have no choice. The old man and Kei were lying." Shin replied with his brows furrowed tensely and this stopped Shun from making step to advance forward.
"Grandpa and Kei was lying? What do you an?" It was rare for their grandfather and Kei to lie toward them, it almost never happened which make Shun question what they were hiding.
Shin notice how when his grandpa and Kei lied, the two would sound sterner than before. He saw how the two were looking at each other and noticed there was still sothing they hid about their conversation with Akasaka Haruhi.
"By chance, three days ago I overheard Kei talking with soone. He said Haruhi gave Ryouma Clan four months to wait for Li Lian to co back from China. The man threatened he would ruin Maple House if she doesn’t co." Shin explained.
He had told Shun that by chance he overheard the conversation but in truth he found out after hailing Kei for four days straight. It wasn’t easy as Kei was quick to pick up his presence whenever he walked near him. If he was careless, Kei would notice and ruin his plan.
Shun, who was told of the news furrowed his brows and silently went to think. "Haruhi could never do that. Our clan is part of the condition and agreent. He could destroy other small Yakuza groups but he could never touch us, Hokkaido would be his entire enemy if he tried to land a hand to our house."
"What if I told you he doesn’t mind all people in Hokkaido becoming his enemy?" Shin questioned back to have Shun surprised. "In the past he made Tokyo his enemy and now his is the leader of Tokyo. I bet he can do the sa to Hokkaido." which was correct.
Shun thought about it agreeing but at the sa ti what they were doing seed to be dangerous as Tokyo where the two were now was place surrounded by Akasaka Group. "What will we be doing?"
Shin nodded his head and he tipped his chin at the door next to him. "This is the back door to enter the club, they say Haruhi often co to the place. We will co here to find out informations about Haruhi and if possible the reason behind Haruhi’s condition to marry Li Lian."
"Alright, I understand most of your plan. But if Haruhi often co here, doesn’t that an most Akasaka Group will be here?" That would be dangerous. Since little Shun had to be careful in exchange for his older brother who had never been careful about everything.
"Haruhi doesn’t co today only in this particular day. As for how, I want you to find and follow people with a white pin on their suit. It’s small but it should be easy to notice as the always pin it on the left side of their chest pocket," explained Shin, "The people with white pins are executives in Akasaka Group, they hold more knowledge than others and you will need to steal their phone but make sure to turn it off so they would not use it to track us."
"What about you?" Shun asked when he saw Shin taking off his jacket to reveal the inner white shirt he wore and there was a black butterfly necktie on the collar of his shirt.
"I will be entering as a waiter and you as a guest." Throwing his jacket on the ground he then turn his eyes to et Shun’s. "If you think they notice you, rember to leave everything you are doing and run, Okay?"
"I have to repeat those words on you. Don’t be stubborn and leave even if you are about to find sothing." The twins nodded at each other and with that the two entered the club using the back door.
Entering first, Shin distract the other employee, keeping them busy as Shun left the backroom for the employee. He ’accidentally’ bumped to a guard with a large body and bowed after whispering sorry to then took the VIP card he saw was inside the man’s pocket and placed it on his jacket pocket.
anwhile, Shin ca to the female employee who was holding the tray of drinks. "Is that to the third VIP room?" asked Shin who ca behind the woman.
The woman was startled by his voice which ca very near beside his ears. As the club was loud with music and dim from lights, Shin was able to catch the woman’s attention. She watched Shin’s feature although his lower half face was covered by face mask, his upper face looked handso that had the woman to be distracted.
"N-No, this drinks are for the fifth VVIP room," replied the woman, her eyes glued at him.
"I can take care of that for your, it looks heavy," Shin smiled under his mask and seeing his eyes curved, the woman could tell he was smiling to her.
"If that is alright with you," said the woman and skillfully, Shin took the tray from her.
"I will treat you so ti in the future." Shin winked before leaving. The woman then t her friend, telling of the male employee he saw who was handso to boot. Weirdly enough, the friend of the woman told her that she didn’t know there were any new employee.
Shun went to take drink and he spotted the won who were wearing glamorous dress and jewelry sparkling from their limbs. A glance and Shun noticed how one of the won were wearing a pin in white color. Was she one of Akasaka mber? But seeing the woman’s body she didn’t seem like one to fight and there wasn’t any rings. From the details, he could guess that the woman was probably the daughter of Akasaka mber.
"Excuse , gorgeous ladies," Shun greeted, pulling down the black face mask that covered his lips to smile charmingly to the won.
