Chapter 23 second quarter

At Itami Airport, Unno Tatsuhei and Misawa Junko got on the plane without meeting anyone they knew. "It's great!" On the plane to Fukuoka, Kyushu, Unno whispered to Junko.The half-grey-haired man blushed with joy at his prank, like a child. "Actually flying is dangerous, and it's always scary. But considering that there will be no acquaintances on this flight, I took the plane. Well, I didn't run into any acquaintances. God help me!" Unable to restrain the joy in his heart, Uno Tatsuhei talked frankly about his arrangement: he will stay in Hakata tonight.Have a good time in the north of Kyushu all day tomorrow.Return to Tokyo by jet plane the day after tomorrow.

After hearing Unino's arrangement, Sunja couldn't help feeling worried again.She thinks that this is a decision made by Hai Ye Chenping without careful consideration, but only for a moment of pleasure.This kind of decision will cause commotion in the entire paper making head office, television bureau, and Osaka branch because of the "sudden disappearance" of the manager.They will make a big splash about the manager's "disappearance", and even alarm the press.Not only that, but what an impact it would have on his career!Umino Tatsuhei is different from Kawakita Ryosaku and others.To be precise, this all-powerful figure who can influence the situation in Japan should belong to the Japanese people. He is the Japanese Unano Tatsuhei.If Umino Tatsuhei affects his career in order to obtain his own happiness, he will also become a "sinner" and be reviled by the society.

"Why do you look so worried?" Uno said nonchalantly, "Once you get on the plane, you can't care about anything else. Even if the company is noisy, it won't help. Just play hard and have fun!" In fact, it was Unano himself who had to give up.This can be seen from his speech.He said to Sunja: "For example, if we want to go back now, we can't! Jumping off the plane is tantamount to suicide. You don't necessarily have to land on the ground after jumping off. It's useless to frown. Sitting on the plane, you have to throw everything away. It's in the back of your head. Once it comes, let it go, let it go!"

Umino Tatsuhei asked Shunzi to change to a seat by the window, and explained to Shunzi the place names of various places in the Seto Inland Sea that can be seen from the clouds. This man looks so relaxed and happy.If he really cut off contact with the outside world for two days, it would cause a sensation in the entire Japanese press. I don't know what he is thinking now.Sunja was still worried about him.The trip did nothing to help his cause.Umino Tatsuhei also has a family, and has two regular lovers as he said, don't they worry about him?Misawa Junko suddenly felt that Unano Tatsuhei took this short trip as an opportunity for him to atone for his sins.If that was the case, Shunzi felt really sorry.She believes that the main responsibility lies with herself, because she flew to Osaka.

Junko Misawa was faintly reflected on the glass window of the plane.When the plane pierced through the clouds, she felt her own shadow flying in the clouds.Shunja asked her own shadow: "What has changed between yesterday's you and today's you? Where did the change occur?" no answer.It was as if the shadow didn't know her.From leaving Tokyo to now, she seems to feel that she is in a dream.From an ideological point of view, either she is unchanged today, or a sense of emptiness spreads infinitely in her heart.This feeling caused her to change the way she observes society and problems.

"What are you thinking?" Umino Tatsuhei asked.He took out the fruit candy given by the stewardess from his pocket and handed it to Shunzi. "Keep this in your mouth and don't think about anything...I'll forget about everything too. Well, let's have two days of leisure!" The plane started to land.The scenery that Shunzi had never seen before began to rise obliquely.On the plane, they slid to the surface of the microwave-filled Hakata Bay. "Ah, here we are." The plane landed.Unano Tatsuhei stood up from his seat. Passengers also got off the plane one after another.

This is a strange trip.After getting off the plane, Misawa Junko cuddled up to Unino Tatsuhei and walked to the airport office with the flow of people.Among the bustling crowd, there are those who pick up and drop off guests, and those who are waiting for the plane.Just as they were walking through the crowd towards the taxi parked in front of the office, they suddenly heard a man's voice: "Manager!" The man stood up from the long row of chairs in the lounge: "Isn't that Manager Uno?" Hai Ye Chenping was stunned when he was called out like that.He stopped, his face drawn long.

Amidst the noise, Misawa Junko also heard shouts.In a hurry, she left Hai Ye and followed the flow of people towards the exit.However, Sunja did not escape the eyes of the shouting man.That person's face was towards Unino Tatsuhei, but his eyes were slanted on Sunja's back. "Ah, it's you." Hai Yechen greeted him. That man's name was Haraguchi, and he was also the president of a newspaper.In the past, he was a colleague of Umino Tatsuhei Paper Manufacturing Company.Although Haraguchi also had more than half of his hair gray, his face was glowing red, giving him a healthy and vigorous look.The experienced Haraguchi is a cynical and sophisticated guy.

"I didn't expect to meet you in this rare place!" Haraguchi said with a smile on his face, "My lord, I heard that you went to Osaka for a business trip, didn't you?" "I'm here to do something urgent." Hai Yechen replied flatly. "The manager is a busy man. You must have some special reason for rushing to Kyushu, right? If you want to stir up trouble in Kyushu, let's say hello in advance." "Ah, where! I came here for a private matter." Uno Tatsuhei showed an embarrassed expression on his face.He didn't expect to be bumped into by this unpleasant rascal.

"Hey, no wonder!" Haraguchi looked behind Unino and said, "It seems that you didn't bring your secretary, nor did the company's entourage, did you?" Mouth laughed: "Haha, it's not bad to have some secret activities once in a while!" He added. Hai Ye thought to himself, he was finally discovered by this old fox.He must seriously consider how to deal with this annoying guy. Haraguchi is also a man with a certain strength.Relying on his status as a reporter, this guy, although no matter which company hates him and avoids him, he can enter and leave the manager's office and director's office of some companies as if nothing had happened.The company could not refuse his "intrusion".This is a tricky guy who is good at grasping the weaknesses of the company's management. At the same time, he is also good at placing cronies and lackeys at work.The only difference between him and other newspaper reporters is that he is flexible and organized.He is capable of extortion, deceit and intimidation.As long as he has money, he can always accept it shamelessly, and can have the cheek to claim that he is aboveboard.However, this is not the case.

Umino Tatsuhei's eyes rested on a young woman.The woman is watching TV.Television sets are specially equipped for waiting passengers at the airport.She sat next to the seat where Haraguchi sat just now.From the woman's attire, one could tell that she was a prostitute without a proper job.In the past, people used to say that Haraguchi was a womanizer behind his back, saying that whenever he went on business trips to Tokyo, Osaka, Hokkaido, Kyushu, etc., he always took a woman with him, and it was not the same woman.Umino Tatsuhei wanted to offset Haraguchi's affair with the woman and his affair with Shunzi to offset Haraguchi's mouth, but he felt that these two matters could not be compared, and at the same time felt that he was in the wrong. "Hey, where else are you going?" Haraguchi asked. The waiting room was noisy, noisy and chaotic.The announcer broadcasts the sound of the plane taking off and arriving at the destination, the noise of the passengers who have just disembarked, and the greetings of the personnel who pick up and drop off the passengers are intertwined.On this occasion, Kaiye Tatsuhei blurted out a place name: "Oh, and plan to go to Nagasaki." "Nagasaki?" Haraguchi's eyes turned straight: "So far away? Tomorrow, won't your company in Osaka have a general meeting? Will there be enough time?" What an old fox in journalism!I can memorize other companies' general meetings without flipping through my notebook.However, it is normal to remember the regular meetings of such a first-class company as Uno Tatsuhei. "Where, it doesn't matter!" Uno Tatsuhei said bravely: "Tomorrow, I will fly back to Fukuoka from Omura in Nagasaki, and then fly from Fukuoka to Osaka. I can always catch up. The conference will not start until 4 pm." "Yeah - not bad! It's very convenient!... It's just that it's rare to meet here. I really want to get some beer somewhere. Unfortunately, I also brought a female companion." Haraguchi said boldly, turning his eyes to that Woman watching TV. The woman with the long face and slanted eyes greeted Uneno Tatsuhei with her fox-like eyes hanging upward. "Yes, it's not easy to bring a female companion." Unano Tatsuhei said. "It's really 'no coincidence, no book'! I think you brought your family with you when you were on a business trip?" Haraguchi was going straight to the point.What he meant was that Uno also brought a female companion. "You!" Uno said without thinking, "It would be bad if you misunderstood others." "Ah? Really?" "The woman who just walked past is an employee of our company's general affairs department." "Staff from the General Affairs Department? Hey, so you're the manager's secretary?" Haraguchi asked pretendingly. "Anyway, next time you come to the company, I'll just introduce you to her." "Great! But, how should I put it, I've never seen her before! Wasn't your former secretary that shrewd young man named Ogawa?" "It's not convenient to have only one Xiao Chuan. If the boy is not very good at it, he has to let other staff act as the agent." "If that's the case, will you introduce me to her now?" "She is not very generous herself, and she has not been in the company for a long time." "What's her name? Oh, it will be a great pleasure to meet such a pretty secretary when I visit the manager later." "Her name is Misawa Junko." Unino Tatsuhei accidentally revealed Shunzi's real name. After leaving the airport, Junko Misawa walked from behind the crowd to Unino. "Get in the car!" Umino Tatsuhei pushed Misawa Junko into the taxi, and got into the taxi himself. "Excuse me, where are you going?" the taxi driver asked the two of them. "..." Uno Tatsuhei couldn't tell the destination for a moment.Of course, this was due to the sudden encounter with Haraguchi who was undecided. "Where are you going? Is there a quieter hot spring hotel?" Umino Tatsuhei asked. "Oh, the closest to here is Musashi Spring, the further one is Hara Crane, and the next is Chodachi. When you arrive at Chodachi, you'll be in Kumamoto County." "Go to the stick stand!" Umino Tatsuhei ordered suddenly. Misawa Junko glanced at Unano Tatsuhei in surprise. After the car ran for a certain distance, the driver drove the car to the gas station to refuel.Because of long-distance travel, you need to carry enough gasoline. "Who was that person you met just now?" Junko Misawa asked Unino. "It's an acquaintance in the same industry." Seeing Unino's sullen look, Shunzi asked again: "Did he see me?" "I seem to have seen it." "Is this going to get you into trouble?" "Not at all. But, that's an annoying guy... that guy knew I had a regular meeting in Osaka, so he was surprised to see me in Kyushu." "That person won't make public about your coming to Kyushu, will he?" "I don't know... all of a sudden, he disrupted our 'escape' plan!" Hai Ye Chenping joked again, half-truthfully: "It's really an 'unforeseen event', we ran into an ambush! " "Hey, did he ask about me?" "Well. There is no way. I said you are an employee of the company's general affairs department. By the way, that person often comes to the company because of work. He will publicize this matter soon." Hai Yechen almost wanted to say something, but when he saw the driver approaching, he stopped talking. "I kept you waiting for a long time!" The driver said, and got into the cab. "Driver, how far is it from here to Zhangli?" "Well, about three hours." "Three hours? So far away?" Uno was also surprised.Because he was not familiar with the geography of Kyushu, he didn't expect it to be so far away. "So, can we go to a hot spring hotel that is a little closer?" The driver said, "It takes one and a half hours to go to Harazuru, and only 30 minutes to go to Musashi Onsen." Umino Tatsuhei thought for a while and said: "Ah, let's go to Zhangli! It doesn't matter if you stay far away. Let's leave now." "Yes, I see." The car crossed the street and was soon on the highway.On the left side of the road are rolling hills.Misawa Junko asked Unino worriedly: "I have to rush to Osaka tomorrow, right?" "Let's talk!" Uno Tatsuhiro couldn't argue, and pushed Shunzi back. The car is on its way.On the side of the road, a sign saying "Musashi Onsen" came into Shunzi's eyes. "Hey, let's just live here!" Shunzi was still worried about Unano Tatsuhei's regular meeting in Osaka tomorrow.An important role in holding the regular meeting is Umino Tatsuhei.And he himself could not attend the meeting, and his whereabouts are unknown, which seems close to nonsense.Misawa Junko couldn't help but feel the responsibility on her body. "Yeah, come on. Don't go any further." Unno Tatsuhei stared at the scenery flowing towards him in front of him, and said calmly: "Anyway, we're here. However, meeting that man named Haraguchi is actually good for our trip." "Then why?" "He already knows that I have come to Kyushu, and he will tell it. This is much better than no one knowing my whereabouts at all. Knowing that I am in Kyushu, the leaders of the company will feel at ease and will not engage in There are some troubles of 'missing notice' and 'search application'. It's just that I told him just now that you are an employee of the company's general affairs department. When I asked for your name, I suddenly said your real name." "oops!" "Ah, don't worry. Isn't it good to let you work in the company according to this statement?" "Work in the company?" Shunzi exclaimed in surprise, "How can I do that?" "why?" "It's a little too hasty, and..." "And it's inconvenient because of our relationship, isn't it?" "..." Shunzi didn't speak. "Sunja, I'm not an ordinary company manager, you know that. The company would have a lot of difficulties without me. Therefore, some people in the society say that I am arbitrary. Although I am sorry, there is no one who can replace me. From a certain point of view, I can do whatever I want in terms of the company's personnel arrangements. It's not a big deal for you to be an employee of the company." "Maybe so. However, if someone finds out about our relationship, wouldn't that be passive?" "Are you worried about that guy Haraguchi talking nonsense? It doesn't matter, he can't say anything indiscriminately. Besides, there are many women who have relationships with him, and they are all of that kind of relationship. At that time, I accidentally blurted out your name. It’s a bit regretful, but looking back now, I think it’s not bad.” "..." "Sunzi, after you return to Tokyo, you can just go to work in the company's general affairs department. Anyway, you have resigned from the newspaper office. After joining the general affairs department, you will be in charge of secretarial work. What do you think?" Tsuetate Onsen is located at the northern foot of the cliff of Aso's old eruptive volcano.Sitting in the car, driving along the winding stream, the hot spring buildings will suddenly appear under the road. "It looks like Kinugawa." Uno Tatsuhei couldn't help saying after seeing Tsuetate Onsen Hotel. Yes, the terrain here is very similar to Kinugawa Onsen near Nikko Park. The car got off the road, drove over the suspension bridge on the stream, and arrived at the hot spring hotel.At this time, it was already dark, and the lights of the hot spring hotel were shining attractively. The hot spring hotel seemed crowded and mixed, and there were no more advanced rooms.Fortunately, the hotel is located next to the stream, and the environment and scenery are beyond reproach. "Unexpectedly, I ended up staying in the mountains of Kyushu." Unano Tatsuhei said.He took a shower from the bathtub and sat at the dining table: "In this remote place, even if I die, no one will know." Uno Tatsuhei scribbled a fake name on the hotel's accommodation registration book. "I have no contact with the company, and no one will come to visit. There is no phone here. I have returned to my life a long time ago, and I have returned to the old me!" Uno Tatsuhei said with emotion. After Unino left school, he had engaged in various occupations.The current status and power are obtained by his tireless hard work.Seriously, in the last twenty or thirty years, he hasn't been away from his career for an hour. "The company may have already exploded." Misawa Junko said to Unino.She was opening a beer bottle for Unano Tatsuhei. So far, Misawa Junko has not considered being a secretary for Unano Tatsuhei.To Unno's surprise, she did not make a formal reply.What Umino Tatsuhei meant was just wishful thinking of Umino Tatsuhei. Prior to this, Misawa Junko was doing the work of paste and scissors that was looked down upon in obscurity in the data investigation department of the R newspaper.That work, even she herself felt at a loss and lacked confidence.When she made up her mind to fly to Osaka, she also felt the bleakness of her future. Take a closer look, there is also a process for Misawa Junko to come to Kyushu.At the beginning, she got close to her immediate superior, Yoshisaku Kawakita, director of the editorial bureau; then she got in touch with the old colleague of the bureau chief, Maruhashi, a special executive of the TV bureau;In the narrow world of the newspaper office, someone like Ryosaku Kawakita was already an unattainable figure in the cloud for Shunzi.However, when the environment changes, this understanding also changes.The relationship with Umino Tatsuhei has developed to such an extent that she never imagined in her dreams.She seemed to have the feeling that the sublimation of her cognition was like climbing a mountain. When she climbed from the foot of the mountain, she was initially blocked by some bushes and thorns, and felt lost.And when she climbed to the top of the mountain and looked around, ah!The towering mountain was trampled under his feet.Here, there is absolutely nothing to blame for taking the wrong photo.The change of Misawa Junko's thoughts and feelings is completely determined by the environment.If, according to Unano Tatsuhei, he agreed to be his secretary, then Misawa Junko's future and prospects would be infinitely bright.Sunja still reserved her own opinions.She knew that Hai Ye Chenping might take her back to the company directly. If this happened to her, she would be shocked if it happened a year ago. Unno Tatsuhei drank beer with great interest.Shunzi knew that this man had a wife and children in his family, and there were two or three other women he supported.Those people will know about his relationship with Shunzi one day, but what attitude will Unano Tatsupei take?It would not be too much if Umino Tatsuhei could easily abandon Shunzi.Because Misawa Junko did not intend to seize this kind of "happiness", she wanted to do her best to live an independent and free life, and she had nothing to ask for from Umino. Misawa Junko has observed the people around her and their lives, and she has a better understanding of the married life of her friends and the families of friends and couples with different ages.She found that no matter who married life is not happy.Some simply divorced, and some endured and cried in barely maintained families.Some of my friends have remarried, but they still can't get happiness after remarrying, and sometimes they are even blamed and tortured by their ex-husbands.She believes that a woman's happiness is definitely not in marriage and family!
