If Sasuke had watched the anime carefully, he would have discovered that this ambitious subordinate was actually the deceased Tetarou Doi in the original novel. It was ironic that he was loyal to Takagi Shoichiro in the original novel, but now he had other ideas in his heart.
"…I understand! However, Doi-kun, I want to think about it carefully. Although we might not be able to get back Sou Ichiro's body, we should still hold a proper funeral. After that, we can discuss other matters!”
Listening to the words of the guy in front of her, Yuriko Takagi could not help but feel a chill in her heart, especially when she saw the flickering expressions of the small leaders who were originally loyal to the Takagi family. She felt as if her heart had been soaked in cold water, but now she could only force herself to be spirited and perfunctory to Doi Tetarou.
It wasn't that Yuriko Takagi couldn't hear the malicious intent in his words, but now that the pillar of the family, Takagi Sou Ichiro, had just passed away, and the few subordinates of the Takagi family and the leader of the National Heart Association who were present did not make a sound, it was obvious that the situation was not good for Yuriko Takagi. Now, she could only think of a way to stall for time.
"…Yes, Madam!"
Hearing Yuriko Takagi's words, Tetsutaro Doi hesitated for a moment, but he still replied respectfully in a low voice as he looked at the surrounding crowd.
However, after Takagi Yuriko said a few words in a hurry, she turned around and left with her daughter Takagi Saya. He, along with several of the Takagi family's retainers and the leaders of the Worrying for the Nation Association, looked at the beautiful backs of the two like hungry wolves.
When their boss was alive, they were loyal dogs, but once they lost control, they would become ambitious wolves. This was also the custom of Japan.
Looking at all this coldly, Sasuke could not help but laugh in his heart. This was a living portrait of human nature.
After giving the rest of the team a look, everyone gathered in a room in Gao Cheng's house.
In the room, Sasuke gave another order.
"Captain, what happened? Why do we have to be ready for battle at all times?”Hirano asked in disbelief.
After hearing Hirano Toda's words, apart from the two na?ve kids, Shizuka and Hiri Alice, the other three people, including Poison Island Tsukiko and Takeshi Rei, couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.
"Hirano, did you see what happened in the square just now? Did you see anything?"
Looking at the round figure of Hirano Toda, who looked like he was easily bullied, Sasuke rubbed his forehead and asked a question.
"I saw it! Gao Cheng's father died, and Gao Cheng and his mother are very sad…"
Just by listening to Hirano Toda, Sasuke immediately labeled him as a slow interpersonal relationship.
"Zizi, Li, did you see anything?"
After gesturing to Hirano Toda to stop, Sasuke turned around and asked Poison Island Tsukiko and Miyamoto Rei who were sitting on the side.
"In this chaotic time, the death of Takagi Sou Ichiro gave many people their own ambitions!”
Hearing Sasuke's words, Poison Island Sako, who was sitting elegantly, put down the wooden sword in her hand that she had wiped several times and spoke her opinion.
"That guy called Doi Tetsutaro has bad intentions! The other members of the Gao family also seemed to have their own thoughts. Anyway, they all looked quite annoying!”
Takeshi Ri's words were very direct, but it just happened to describe the general situation of the scene just now.
"You're all right! Due to the death of Takagi Sou Ichiro, those subordinates who were suppressed by him have become restless. I think that in this apocalypse, as long as there are conditions, anyone has the ambition to take over this huge base! Receiving the wife and daughter of the former boss and then using their name to order the integration of the Gao Cheng family seemed to be the simplest and most successful way!”
Just as Sasuke made this deduction, the door to their room was pushed open, and it was Gao Cheng and her daughter who came in.
"You're right! As soon as Sou Ichiro died, Doi Tetarou and the others had other ideas. They all wanted to get both money and people and control the entire Takagi family..."
Takagi Yuriko affirmed Sasuke's judgment, while Takagi Saya was paying attention to the movement outside the door and then closing the door.
"Ms. Yuriko should have talked to someone else, right?”
Sasuke looked up and pondered for a moment as he saw Yuriko Takagi and Saya Takagi walking in with a calm expression and an angry face. Then, he asked directly.
"…That's right! I used my phone to contact those guys, and their requirements were similar!”
Listening to Sasuke's words, Yuriko Takagi's face could not help but twitch. However, after seeing Sasuke's affirmative expression, she sighed and confirmed Sasuke's judgment.
As for the so-called request, although Yuriko Takagi did not mention it, everyone present was not stupid. After thinking about the situation in the square and the current situation of the Takagi family, they could roughly guess it. It was estimated that the most basic requirement was to have both the person and the money. Even with Sasuke's estimation of the degree of darkness in human nature, there were people who wanted to have both mother and daughter.
"So, why did you bring Takagi Saya here, Miss Yuriko?”
Sasuke nodded to show that he understood and asked her expressionlessly.
"Yes, you took care of Xaya along the way. Can you take her away from Gaocheng's house?”
Looking up at Sasuke, Yuriko Takagi nodded and then pleaded with Sasuke and the others.
"Mom, you…"
Hearing Yuriko Takagi's words, Takagi Saya, who had almost been angered, could not help but shout.
Takagi Saya claimed to be a girl with a high IQ. Although his words were exaggerated, it was not an exaggeration. From the situation just now and his mother's words, Takagi Saya seemed to understand a bad possibility.
"Saya, don't be so temperamental! Now, while I can still exert some influence, you must leave this place with Mr. Sasuke and the others as soon as possible. Otherwise, you might be involved in the chaos of the Takagi family..."
Listening to her daughter's words, Yuriko Takagi warned her daughter while looking at the leader of the team, Sasuke.
" Lady Yuriko, it seems that you still don't understand. In the eyes of those people, your daughter, Saya, is a great bargaining chip. Even if you let Saya leave with us, they won't let her go. We might even be forcefully 'protected' by them as soon as we reach the door!”
Looking at the expectant Yuriko Takagi, Sasuke broke her thoughts with a gentle but cold voice.
Takagi Yuriko's idea was still somewhat taken for granted. Sasuke did not think that the leaders of the Takagi family and the Worrying for the Country Association would let Takagi Saya go. It was even possible that the sentry post outside the gate had been changed.
"This…"
Yuriko Takagi was only good at protecting herself in the pre-apocalyptic world. Now that she was in the post-apocalyptic world, she was at a loss.
"The way out is very simple! That is to be direct!"
Sasuke revealed a cruel smile. Killing was what he was best at!
