I’m a Hokage in Tokyo
Page 293
“During this trip to the United States, I have an extra amount of foreign currency in my hands, totaling about 20 million US dollars. Let’s use this money.”
During the trip to the United States, many people gave Minister Uchiha expensive gifts, but the Uchiha Immortal Sect declined them all. Soon, smart people found ways to give Minister Uchiha money.
This money is Uchiha Senmen’s speaking fee at major universities and companies in the United States.
According to the national conditions of the United States, it is reasonable and legal.
Even the Federal Taxation Bureau, which is eager to squeeze oil out of stones, issued a certificate stating that there is no need to pay taxes.
In the United States, Uchiha Senmen met many foreign dignitaries.
Although their appearances, languages, and beliefs were different, there was no difference between the foreign bigwigs and the Japanese dignitaries, their bodies exuded a decadent aura, and their turbid eyes could not hide their greed for supernatural powers, which then extended to Uchiha Senmon.
They are all a bunch of useless people, not worth a second glance.
The only person who left some impression on Uchiha Senmon was the CEO of SpaceX.
In the 21st century, it is no longer surprising for private aerospace companies to launch small satellites and commercial rockets.
But this is the only private company that can send astronauts into space and successfully land a lunar probe on the surface of the moon.
The Uchiha Senmen, who are still brooding over the Feiyue Incident, must also be looked upon with a higher eye.
The CEO of SpaceX has vowed that their company is already preparing for a manned lunar landing project and will launch the first rocket as early as the end of 2025.
The Uchiha Senmen were skeptical about this.
What capitalists say is less trustworthy than the US government. God knows what nonsense they can say to push up stock prices.
However, SpaceX’s development momentum and aerospace strength in recent years are obvious to all, and it is also well-known in Uchiha Senmen’s mind.
What if it really comes true?
After finalizing this matter, the topic of their conversation once again fell on Uchiha Ming.
“Brother-in-law, what do you think of Miss Songping that Ming brought back this time?”
In fact, Sakaki Namiryu’s impression of Matsudaira Chiyo was not bad, and it could even be said to be quite good.
In addition to the first impression of a lady from a noble family, the ease with which Matsudaira Chiyo handled the dignitaries of Shizuoka Prefecture before the all-night ceremony also made Sakaki Namiryu nod secretly.
Miss Matsudaira is much more mature in dealing with people than A Ming.
All the men in the Uchiha family are like this, cold on the outside but warm on the inside. They always have a cold face towards strangers and are polite but arrogant.
To put it nicely, it means being calm and unperturbed, and not being surprised by praise or criticism. To put it bluntly, it means being arrogant and looking down on others.
My brother-in-law was like this when he was young, until he started working at the Metropolitan Police Department, when he became a little more tactful.
A Ming found a beautiful woman who is eloquent and good at socializing, which can be considered a complementary relationship.
But even so, we cannot let our guard down.
“I heard that Ms. Matsudaira and Ming were high school classmates. The one who is close to the water gets the moon first.”
Sakaki Namie suggested: “Even though they have this relationship, we can’t rest assured. Who knows if they will use my brother-in-law’s reputation to bully others? I think we should send someone to investigate.”
“Uh… that’s not necessary.”
Uchiha Senmon looked a little strange, with memories in his eyes, and sighing at the incredible fate.
“My subordinates in the police department have already reported the information about the Matsudaira family to me. I never thought there would be such a coincidence. This is probably fate.”
“Brother-in-law, what are you talking about?” Sakaki Namru was a little confused.
“Ms. Matsudaira’s mother is an old friend of mine. She was a senior who took great care of me when I was at the University of Tokyo. Now I can’t call her senior, I should call her Mrs. Matsudaira.”
Beep beep beep!
Sakaki Namiryu’s sister-in-law’s alarm suddenly sounded.
Not right, not right.
But, I have never heard my sister mention the last name Matsudaira.
Suddenly, Sakaki Namiryu had a flash of inspiration and blurted out:
“Ms. Matsudaira’s mother’s last name is Jinguji, isn’t it?”
“That’s right, this was Mrs. Matsudaira’s last name before she got married. Did Ms. Matsudaira even tell you this? It seems like you two are getting along very well.” Uchiha Senmon was completely unaware of Sakaki Namiryu’s little thoughts and spoke directly.
Sure enough!
Sakaki Namiryu’s eyes suddenly became sharp, and she quickly retrieved the label from Fengchen’s memory.
Her sister once complained to her privately that when she was with her brother-in-law in Tokyo, she met a strong rival.
Not only is she the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, but she is also a talented woman at the University of Tokyo. She launches a fierce offensive against her brother-in-law, hoping to get him to marry into her family.
That young lady’s surname is Jinguji!
I definitely didn’t remember it wrong!
Sakaki Namiryu’s eyes unconsciously revealed vigilance and hostility.
“That despicable and sinister woman let her daughter get close to A Ming. Could it be that Xiang Zhuang is trying to kill Pei Gong and is plotting against my brother-in-law?”
Rekindled love? Closer relationship?
Sakaki Namiryu felt that she was overthinking it again.
After all, this was already twenty years later, and Miss Jinguji had already married and had a daughter, so she wouldn’t be so shameless as to do such a thing.
Allowing your children to date the children of someone you once loved is, in a way, a way of resolving previous regrets. Isn’t this the behavior of losers that often appears in party struggle cartoons?
You should be more generous and not make random guesses.
Thinking of this, Sakaki Namiryu pretended to remain calm.
“Mrs. Matsudaira’s husband passed away last year. It’s not easy for a widow and a daughter to support the family business.”
Uchiha Senmon said calmly, “Let Miss Matsudaira and Ming’s relationship take its course.”
confirmed!
That fickle woman must be targeting my brother-in-law.
Sakaki Namiryu almost bit her teeth off.
A foreign blonde woman left, and a widow came!
My love life is so ill-fated.
Don’t do that kind of thing!
My brother-in-law has found another woman, and after my sister passed away, I will have to stay single for the time being…at least for ten years!
Decided!
After returning, I must separate A Ming and that woman’s daughter, sever the evil bond, and not give her any chance to take advantage of me.
Sakaki Namiryu’s face darkened and she thought angrily.
“Even Ming has a girlfriend. Namiryu, you are already grown up. You should think about yourself.”
Uchiha Senmon smiled and said, “Whether it’s the work of the foundation or the investment in the village, there’s no need to rush.”
It was like a basin of cold water was poured on her body, and Sakaki Namiryu’s heart sank to the bottom.
“It’s not good for girls to stay up late. You should go back too.”
Uchiha Senmon called Assistant Ichimaru and several other men in black suits and instructed:
“You guys take her back. It’s getting dark now, so be careful along the way.”
“Ms. Sakaki, please.”
Assistant Ichimaru came over with narrowed eyes and spoke politely.
If my sister were here, my brother-in-law would definitely let her stay, and the couple would keep vigil for Uncle Uchiha together.
Sakaki Namiryu felt mixed emotions and was extremely bitter.
And the unintentional words her brother-in-law said before showed that he didn’t regard her as a woman at all, but just a wild girl following behind him.
Sakaki Namiryu walked out like a zombie, following several members of the Supernatural Police Department.
“Boom–!”
Suddenly, there was a flash of lightning in the night sky, the wind and clouds changed suddenly, and raindrops as big as beans fell down with a crackling sound.
The summer rain always comes so quickly, catching everyone off guard, and they instinctively run from the yard towards the mourning hall where they can shelter from the rain.
“It’s raining so hard. It’s a good thing we walked fast, otherwise we would have been soaked to the skin.”
“If the hundreds of guests from before were still here, this old house would definitely not be able to accommodate them.”
“I hope it won’t affect tomorrow’s farewell ceremony.”
Looking at the thunderstorm with terrible rain which was unlikely to end anytime soon, Uchiha Senmen did not ask Sakaki Namiya to go back.
Uchiha Senmon, Sakaki Namiryu, several men in black suits from the Supernatural Police Department, and the family of their great-uncle’s adopted daughter sat in the mourning hall, keeping vigil for their great-uncle.
“Crackling.”
The sudden rain hit the eaves and doors, making noises.
It was windy and rainy outside, and the candlelight in the mourning hall was flickering. There was a muffled thunder, and a beam of lightning illuminated the smiling face of the portrait on the coffin in the mourning hall.
It seemed as if he was looking into the eyes of a living person.
Sakaki Namiryu took a glance and quickly lowered her head, feeling a little uneasy, and secretly leaned towards Uchiha Senmon.
“Boom!!!”
There was another sudden, deafening thunder, the sky seemed to explode, and the whole old house trembled.
“Wow wow wow!”
Everyone in the mourning hall was trembling with fear, and some of the timid ones had even closed their eyes and covered their ears.
With the fleeting flash of lightning, Uchiha Xianmen saw a dark shadow standing silently outside the window, peeking inside with a terrifying gaze.
The figure had a bent back and a hunched body, and belonged to an old man.
Uchiha Senmon’s pupils shrank, and the next second, several black magatama appeared faintly.
“Uncle?”
Chapter 370 Chapter 371 Nanhe Shrine
There was a storm outside, dull thunder was passing through the clouds, and the fleeting lightning left the figure of the old man peeping inside the window deeply imprinted in Uchiha Senmon’s retina.
“Uncle?!”
Uchiha Senmon couldn’t help but his face changed drastically. He faced the window and stood up.
“Brother-in-law, what’s wrong with you?” “Minister?”
When the other people in the mourning hall saw Uchiha Xianmen’s strange behavior, they were shocked and suspicious. They looked in the direction Uchiha Xianmen was looking, but found nothing.
The Uchiha sect frowned.
Although it was just a flash of lightning, with his keen eyesight, there was no way he could have made a mistake!
The old man who just appeared outside the window is the protagonist of tonight’s all-night show, my deceased great uncle.
So who is lying in the coffin now?
“Could it be that my uncle has turned into an evil spirit?” Uchiha Xianmen’s eyes turned cold.
Among the monsters that appeared after 1998, there were only a dozen or so evil spirits, but they were much more troublesome than monsters.
Because evil spirits have no physical form and are completely immune to physical attacks, bullets and cannons are useless.
Four years before Reiwa, there was no other way except to isolate the evil spirits.
But after the advent of the extraordinary era, Dr. Satomi was appointed by the Lord of Taishan as the Soul Catcher and was given the power of Hades Escape, and the Japanese government thus got a good card.
Although other extraordinary people do not have the enhanced special attack against spirits like Dr. Satomi, their attacks mixed with spiritual power are equally effective against evil spirits.
As the number one extraordinary person on earth, Uchiha Senmen can easily suppress a newly formed evil spirit.
Even though he was his uncle, Uchiha Senmen had no intention of showing mercy.
As the author of “The Three Iron Rules Regarding Type B ‘Evil Spirits’ and the Necessary Countermeasures”, Uchiha Senmon understands the characteristics of evil spirits, which are horrors that should not exist in the human world.
