Chapter 192: Master and Servant
"What a pity, in the end, it's all about organized crime. Otherwise, there would have been a chance to swallow this opportunity whole. Tsk tsk, no wonder that Eccentric Princess chose to support the Inagawa-kai; even if she fails, she should still be able to get what she wants." After a brief meeting with Shinoda Kenichi to confirm the next course of action, Yang Xiaoyou couldn't help but reflect on Fia Haek Media's keen insight. From the perspective of an opponent, they were indeed a troublesome character.
The commotion caused by Bai was practically a public challenge to the Japan Side government, and the incident was directly classified as a terrorist attack, causing Tokyo to be on high alert.
At this time, the Yamaguchi-gumi, already on the brink of internal conflict, wisely chose to lay low. Both factions within had tacitly agreed to refrain from launching Force attacks for the moment and instead engaged in a battle of soft power.
Meanwhile, Shinoda Kenichi indeed opted for compromise, providing Yang Xiaoyou and his team with considerable convenience from local forces.
The combat team from Hive Security Company was also preparing to leave Japan temporarily by boat.
Continuing to provoke in such a tense atmosphere would clearly yield no benefits. Besides Nobunaga Hideyoshi, who remained for open business negotiations, only Lucas and Fein stayed behind to protect the participating team.
Suddenly, the basement door of a residential area was kicked open, sending dust flying—evidence that no one had cleaned this place in a long time.
Having been in darkness for so long and weakened by lack of food and water, Charming Shadow squinted as light flooded in unexpectedly.
"Hey, did you miss me?" Yang Xiaoyou appeared at the basement door. With most of his main objectives achieved, he felt quite pleased.
After freeing Charming Shadow's mouth from its bindings, he waved his wristwatch with a grin.
Seeing the watch on Yang Xiaoyou's wrist, Charming Shadow's eyes flashed with surprise. She had no other choice but to share this news with him.
Originally, she didn't hold much hope; after all, aside from her previous abilities, she had been staying as a guest in that mysterious organization.
Time, however, did not allow this big boy to wait for the other party to come out alone. She had already prepared for the worst. In her view, the best outcome would undoubtedly be for the master of this basement to arrive. Yet, with time slipping away, the other party successfully brought the Controller along, leaving Charming Shadow at a loss.
"Hey? I didn't expect you to actually bring it. It seems you have some understanding of the organization, my master," Charming Shadow said, stretching her somewhat numb body after being untied, her tone slightly strange as her eyes flickered.
Looking at Charming Shadow, who appeared disheveled and alluring after being freed from her ropes, Yang Xiaoyou felt a slight flutter in his heart upon hearing her call him master.
Now that he held the key to their lives and deaths in his hands, these two individuals who had initially distrusted and opposed him were now completely under his control in an instant.
Moreover, it was a kind of control that didn’t require much regard for their feelings. Thinking of this while gazing at the enchanting figure before him, a hint of satisfaction crossed Yang Xiaoyou's face.
If it weren't for the current circumstances, he might have been tempted to teach her how to deal with her master properly.
As for Shadow of Death's feelings or anything like that, Yang Xiaoyou had no intention of considering them at all. He and they were originally adversaries; he could only maintain control through the Controller in his hand.
He certainly did not believe that his charm could win them over completely while simultaneously coercing them with the Controller. That would clearly be a bit ridiculous.
Since that was the case, it was clear he was forcing control over them; he was the bad guy in their eyes.
He knew that if he hadn’t gained memories of the future and were just an ordinary Nerd caught up in such a kidnapping, he would likely have already been silenced and turned into a corpse by now.
It was impossible for him to treat them like Nobunaga Hideyoshi did.
Yang Xiaoyou considered himself not particularly cunning but certainly not naive either. The idea of repaying kindness with kindness was out of the question.
As long as he maintained a balanced control over them while prioritizing their safety, Yang Xiaoyou felt absolutely confident in keeping them under his thumb.
"Alright, find a way to contact your partner and call him over. Make sure to bring the Virus Sample," he said, pulling Charming Shadow closer by her waist and biting her earlobe.
Upon seeing the other party obtain the Controller, Charming Shadow had a rough idea of the situations she might face in the future. She merely rolled her eyes at the ambiguous posture of the person before her. Was this karma?
"You actually got your hands on this thing; I'm truly surprised," Shadow of Death said, looking at Yang Xiaoyou's possession across the table, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes.
In contrast, he didn't seem particularly outraged by the hand that was wrapped around his lover, occasionally squeezing and groping her. For him, as long as Charming Shadow was alive, that was enough.
"Hmph, I'm not interested in men, so during this time of testing you all, you should go out and work hard. If you do enough, I might not arrange for her to carry out any missions," Yang Xiaoyou said, leaning back with one arm around Charming Shadow's shoulders, pressing her ample chest against him, wearing an expression that screamed 'I'm the bad guy.'
"Of course, depending on Charming Shadow's performance, the difficulty of your mission assignments will vary. Go to this address to report in. Be careful not to let anyone discover your identity or pull any tricks; otherwise, even if Although doesn't send Charming Shadow out, I will still impose some punishment games on you."
After finishing his words, Yang Xiaoyou took out Nobunaga Hideyoshi's contact information and handed it over.
"Whoever holds the item is who I will serve; you need not doubt this. Killing for you and killing for Revenant are no different to me," Shadow of Death said as he took the note. After memorizing the contact details, he tore it into shreds.
"Then I look forward to your performance. Going through all this trouble to acquire it should reflect its value."
"Alright, find a place to stay. I have things to attend to and won't be able to accompany you for now. Also, without my permission, you're not allowed to meet with Ming privately," Yang Xiaoyou said nonchalantly as he established their master-servant relationship before leaving the café.
The competition group was probably in chaos by now; just a few days ago, he had borrowed her body for a moment. Yang Xiaoyou wasn't at that level of desperation yet.
Moreover,
This was still his first time. In other places, it didn’t feel like much; however, when it came to certain activities, he felt like he might be at a disadvantage.
He had originally prepared himself to follow his master and be toyed with for a while, but upon suddenly hearing such words, Charming Shadow couldn't help but be taken aback.
To be honest, she felt a bit disheartened.
If it weren't for discovering that strange milk on her last visit, she might have doubted the other party's abilities.
"Hey, what are you looking at? In a few days, I'll show you that Shadow of Death is nothing to be afraid of." Looking at the other person's slightly subtle gaze, Yang Xiaoyou felt a vein throb on her forehead.
"Oh," Charming Shadow replied with a long drawl, a hint of amusement flashing in her eyes. Although this master Although tried to act like someone who had been through it all, some Aspects revealed an unexpectedly innocent side.
"Officer, how long has it been? Is there really no news?" Due to the previous attack, the Police Station had arranged for an officer to stay at the hotel.
At this moment, Zhu Qibiao had come early to negotiate with him in English.
Delaying the competition for two rounds was secondary; the main issue was that this was a student he had brought out himself and now had to take responsibility for.
Behind him, Qian Kai and Lucas exchanged glances that suggested they were not on the same page.
One complained that even though everyone else had gone, they were still one short, while the other grumbled that those two fellow members hadn’t shown up.
Seeking to maintain some integrity.
