Chapter 16 Chapter Sixteen Dual Personality

Specialist Tokuyama went to Tohto Mutual Bank to visit Koji Shiokawa and talked in the living room about formal financing from this bank.In this simple business negotiation, Hongzhi is an excellent young banker, he is very elegant and decent in his dealings with others, and his thinking is very clear and quick.He is proficient in accounting business, and the negotiation process is straightforward. During the negotiation process, Tokuyama thought to himself that if this person is not overly ambitious, he can achieve rapid development with his ability.But he believed too much in his abilities to be content with being a director of a mutual bank.Especially in this bank, the elderly directors headed by the president are conservative. He is very dissatisfied with this and has talked about it to Tokuyama many times.

However, behind this dissatisfaction, Koji Shiokawa is ambitious and desperately wants to enter the industrial world, and he even abandons his wife for this.After witnessing Koji dancing with a young woman at a nightclub, Tokuyama called his home. "I haven't come back yet." Nobuko answered Tokuyama on the phone. Tokuyama heard Nobuko's voice, and flashed before his eyes the various expressions he had seen at the O Hotel. "I have something urgent to contact your husband." Deshan made up an excuse to call late at night. "When does he come back?" "This, I don't know too much." Nobuko's confused tone, even Hongzhi's wife didn't know whether he was home, indicating that he often stayed out.

"Well, I'll call his bank tomorrow Oh, I'll tell him about the phone call tonight when I talk about business tomorrow, so don't tell him. I feel really sorry." Nobuko agreed.This matter may seem insignificant, but it means that Tokuyama is one step closer to Nobuko psychologically.In other words, it was a little secret between the two of them.Generally speaking, in order to make the person involved feel close, there is no means more effective than creating a little secret of the two-person world, so this call is of great significance.Another point is that, just as I imagined, Koji Shiokawa had a special liking for that woman and often slept out, while Nobuko stayed at home alone with an empty room.

From then on, Tokuyama kept a small box containing an opal ring in his pocket every day, and hid it in the deep drawer when he arrived at the company.Don't be afraid to carry it with you when you go out, because it may come in handy someday.Moreover, with it by my side, I will never forget my long-cherished wish to be close to Nobuko.Tokuyama's phone call didn't stop there, and the next night and the next night did the same. Hongzhi is still not at home.It is not unusual to call the host's home late at night so frequently, but this has the meaning of implying that Tokuyama cares about Nobuko.

"My business has developed by leaps and bounds and has entered the implementation stage, so I have more contacts with your husband. Since he is not at home tonight, I have no choice but to call his bank tomorrow." After finishing speaking, he hung up Cut off the phone, and every time told Nobuko not to tell her husband. In Tokuyama's view, this is also a kind of temptation, because if Nobuko tells Hongzhi about this despite repeated warnings, Hongzhi will definitely call to confirm the next day, but there is no.If not, there are two possibilities.One possibility is that Hongzhi never came home, so there is no way of knowing about it.Another possibility is that although he sleeps out for a long time, he will return home occasionally, and Nobuko will inform him about it at this time.Since Hongzhi didn't respond, it shows that Nobuko faithfully abided by his instructions.

Tokuyama felt that making a few more phone calls would leave a deep impression on Nobuko.He really wanted to express his love to Xinzi over the phone, but he was very cautious, and it was the worst thing to arouse the other party's vigilance.Tokuyama imagined that one night when Nobuko was alone in the vacant room, he suddenly visited and offered the jewelry box hidden in his pocket. Deshan has always been handy in launching an active offensive against women.He imagined himself going to his home to confess his love to Nobuko while the host was out, and even imagined his next move.However, this is just an immature plan. He feels that Xinzi is different from the women he has been with before, so he may not be able to catch him easily.It is also a great pleasure at the moment to be cautious and approach gradually. Originally, this married woman is in an unfortunate situation where she can take advantage of it.

Hongzhi, who had a face-to-face business discussion with Tokuyama, is a person with a normal life. No matter from his efficient way of talking or his attitude towards people, it is hard to imagine that his private life is extremely abnormal.This person may have a dual personality. On the one hand, he wants to get close to him, and he is waiting for an opportunity to make friends with Do Keijiro.Fortunately, the executive Miyagawa in the middle confessed all of his deviant behavior, so that he could gain insight into the mystery, otherwise he would have been plotted against.Miyagawa once said that this person would definitely cross rivers and tear down bridges in the future, and it was true.But there is no such sign when sitting opposite each other, he is warm, thoughtful and impeccable.

Moreover, he actually obtained funds from his father-in-law's family to use in this project, and he also paved the way for making friends with Keijiro Tochi.I don't know what the intention is to embezzle the funds of the old man's family.It is difficult for ordinary people to understand that they still ask their father-in-law for a loan when they are at odds with their wives.Such a huge amount of money is so easy to get, and the means are really amazing. The same is true when it comes to women.The young woman seen in the nightclub is probably one of his lovers, and it seems to be not a minority.Judging from his long absence from home, he must often sleep outside in flowers and willows.When Mr. Tokuyama had a brief conversation with Koji Shiokawa, he kept thinking about these things.

At this time, a staff member came to ask Hongzhi to answer the phone, Deshan executive took this opportunity to stand up, and the business was over. "Please wait a moment! Anyway, the phone call won't take too long." After speaking, Koji Shiokawa walked to his office. "It's me..." Zhi Lizi's voice. "Shimomura came to Tokyo from Kofu." "To Tokyo?" "Now in Shinjuku... He said that he has done everything he was asked to do before." Hongzhi knew what it was, and Zhi Lizi stayed in Kofu for a whole day, encouraging Shimomura to implement their conspiracy plan. "He said he came to Tokyo to see me. There was no other way, so I had to pick him up in Shinjuku. I just called when I had a chance."

"Is he in Tokyo on a business trip?" "No. He said he came without telling the company." "Oh?" Koji Shiokawa sighed, there are still young people in the world who fall in love with this kind of girl at first sight. "Did he bring anything?" "He said that it was basically successful, and it will take two or three days to fix the hotel's stuff." "That means it's basically a success!" "He works so hard and can't be dismissed casually. I have no other choice today, so I have to socialize?" "Okay. In order to get what we need and follow up, you have to treat him well." He said calmly.

"Okay, no problem. But, I treat him well, aren't you jealous?" "I know you're all for my own good, so I'm at ease. I believe in you." "Then you stay with me tonight and say something insincere to that young man, I can't stand it." "Okay, got it. Greet him well." Hong Zhi hung up the phone. Back in the original room, Tokuyama was smoking a cigarette boredly. He had no idea that his subordinates had left their work and came to Tokyo to play. "I kept you waiting, I'll take you downstairs!" "Then how dare you do it?" In fact, let the guests wait until the call is over, in order to respectfully see off the guests.Koji Shiokawa is indeed a smooth and thoughtful person. Tokuyama returned to the company.After talking with Koji Shiokawa just now, he felt that it was necessary to get in touch with Shimomura in Kofu, so he asked the staff to call Kofu. "The other party said that Shimomura didn't go to work today." The staff said to Tokuyama. "Have you entered the mountain?" "I heard it is. I said yesterday that I would not come to the company, and went directly to the development zone for a day of inspection." "Really? Tell him to call the head office as soon as he comes back." After Deshan handled two or three tasks, it was time to make an appointment with other investors.The car is coming. It was dusk on the way back after Deshan went to the investment merchant to discuss business.He looked out the window, and the car was driving on Yotsuya Street.The traffic jam has been serious recently, and the cars are moving very slowly.He looked boredly at the pedestrians outside the window, and saw a person who looked exactly like Shimomura among the crowd on the walking path near Mitsuke District.Feeling strange in my heart, I looked carefully, but saw that there was a young woman beside the man.I happened to stop at a red light, so I could see it very clearly. The two stood talking, and then the woman walked towards this side, while Shimomura walked towards the opposite side.When parting, the two seemed to shake hands lightly.Tokuyama was startled, he recognized the woman who had danced with Koji Shiokawa in the nightclub before.At the time, it was speculated that she was Hongzhi's lover, so I paid special attention to it. It was impossible to misunderstand, it was this woman. Shimomura was walking towards Yotsuya Station. Tokuyama wanted the driver to turn around and follow Shimomura, but unfortunately, there were so many pedestrians that he couldn't start.Seeing that he was about to lose his target, Tokuyama decided to get off the car. When the light turned green, Tokuyama ventured through the slow-starting traffic, onto the footpath, and strode down to the village.He didn't know the ins and outs of the matter, how could Hongzhi's woman get together with Shimomura?However, this question was resolved in my brain within two or three seconds. She was the woman that Shimomura had mentioned earlier and was taken by Koji Shiokawa.He said he was going to see the development zone, but Hongzhi went back to Tokyo by himself first, and let the woman take over the duties and asked Shimomura to accompany him on the inspection. The woman's background was clearly analyzed, but what I didn't understand was how Shimomura, who was supposed to be patrolling in Kofu Mountain, appeared on the streets of Tokyo?Tokuyama finally caught up to Shimomura and poked him on the shoulder.Shimomura looked back in surprise, seeing the executive's face in front of him, he immediately turned pale and was dumbfounded, not advancing or retreating. "Hey! What's the matter with you?" Deshan asked with a smile. "Unexpectedly, you came to Tokyo on a business trip." Shimomura was speechless, not daring to raise his eyes, his pale face just now turned red to his forehead. "Stop standing here stupidly, go ahead and have some coffee!" Tokuyama walked forward first, and Shimomura followed behind dejectedly.There is a well-known barbecue restaurant nearby, and the fast food restaurant inside sells drinks. Tokuyama led Shimomura in. "What would you like to drink?" Tokuyama asked, but Shimomura remained listless and silent.Tokuyama ordered two whiskeys on the rocks, and Tokugawa took a sip. "Executive!" Shimomura called out in a low voice. "Today... I'm really sorry!" "What's the matter?" Tokuyama tried to put on a friendly expression. "I'm not on a business trip, I lied, I'm absent from work without authorization." "Just now, I called the office in Kofu." The executive said nonchalantly. After hearing this, Shimomura turned pale with fright. "Originally you were supposed to be in the mountains, but you actually wandered around here. I think it's strange... Is it your girlfriend who is with you?" Shimomura's face was on fire again. "How? When you're young, it's time for romance. The world must be wonderful, right?" "..." "I don't nag those mother-in-laws, but you have to do the work of the company well for me." "I'm sorry!" Shimomura didn't touch his glass, but just drooped his head. "Hey, you don't have to be afraid. Come, drink." "yes." "The wine has been mixed, and the taste will change if you put it in again. Drink it quickly!" Shimomura opened his mouth crying. "Executive... that girl, do you know?" "What do you mean?" Deshan pretended not to know. "She is the girl brought to Kofu by Shiokawa, the executive manager of Toto Mutual Bank last time." "Really? Yanchuan brought it." "To tell you the truth, that Narisawa Riko...that's her name, and I fell in love with her." "Look, look, I just met her two days ago, so it's like this? You didn't go to work just to see her?" "I'm really puzzled. No, I don't deny the fact that the absentee came out to see her, but I have other important things." "Important matter? Is it related to the company?" "Probably in some way. Yeah, maybe not directly." "I don't understand. Come, have a refreshing drink." "I really don't know what to do now." Shimomura said sadly. "Frankly, I missed work today and came to Tokyo to meet her. I love Edariko." "Is it because of this trouble?" "No, it's not just that. Mr. Executive, Koji Shiokawa is still very important to our company, right?" "Of course, he is an important investor in our company...but what's the matter?" "During my relationship with Zhi Lizi, I discovered that she might be Shiokawa's lover. At first, I introduced her as Shiokawa's acquaintance, but I always felt that something was wrong. I asked Zhi Lizi, and she denied it." "I see. So you're starting to worry?" "No, not only that. I told you about this a few days ago, and he asked me to do such a thing... to find a way to prove that Mrs. Shiokawa and Associate Professor Asano had spent the night in a hot spring hotel near Kofu. In other words, she Tell me to fabricate evidence of their escapades." "Oh?" This time even Tokuyama stared at Shimomura speechless. "That day, I followed your instructions and agreed to his request." Tokuyama was silent for five or six seconds. "Then what happened?" "Then I went to the hotel I was familiar with and asked for the passenger registration form, and wrote Nobuko Shiokawa next to it. Then I entrusted the person in the hotel, whoever came to investigate, to prove that the two of them had stayed in this hotel." "Did you give them that form?" "No. I still have it!... When I saw Zhi Lizi today, she asked me to send the form to the hotel. I said I haven't made up my mind yet, and I will send it later." "Take it out and let me see." "Yes." Shimomura obediently took out a piece of paper from his pocket. Tokuyama opened it and saw that "Tadao Asano" and "Nobuko Shiokawa" were indeed written side by side. "Did you write the 'Shiokawa Nobuko' on this?" "Yes." Shimomura felt more and more regretful. "Executive, the matter of Zhi Lizi is up to today. I know she is Shiokawa's lover, but I am so stupid to get into his trap. She must use this as evidence to force Shiokawa to break up with his wife, and then Replace it yourself. She is just using me." The young man's tone trembled with anger. However, Deshan saw him saying goodbye to her in the car just now, and he shook her hand and turned back frequently to wave.He must be duplicity, and he still loves Zhilizi very much. "I'm going to tear it up in front of Mr. Manager." Shimomura reached for the form. "Wait." Tokuyama pressed Shimomura's hand. "what?" "Oh, there's no need to tear it up yet. Hey, Shimomura-kun." Tokuyama smiled. "This form, just as Cheng Ze said, give her the photo, okay?" "Huh?" Shimomura frowned. "Before you give her, take a photo." "..." "I have an idea, take a photo of it and save it. Give another one to Cheng Ze." "Professional!" "Okay, okay! Society is not as simple as you think. Just do as I tell you!" Shimomura felt more and more clouded. "One day when the time is right, I'll tell you the reason. You just do what I say, okay?" Then he persuaded Shimomura, who hadn't served a glass, to drink. "Also, how is that Asano doing now?" "Mr. Executive, there was an accident, and Asano committed suicide." "Huh?" Deshan was taken aback this time. "when?" "Just four days ago. He hanged himself... I always feel that this registration form is related to Asano's death, and I have been restless." Two days later, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Tokuyama called Shiokawa's home while he was out.Although he hadn't inquired beforehand, it was impossible for Koji Shiokawa to be at home at this time.Tokuyama didn't call in the company, but went outside to call a public phone. The other party's bell was ringing, and to Tokuyama it sounded like the opening signal for a happy comedy.The little nanny answered the phone first, followed by Xinzi's voice. "I'm Tokuyama," he replied. "It's rude to keep disturbing at night these days." "No, where." Xinzi said calmly. "To be honest, I must see Madam..." "What's the matter?" Of course you have to ask. "Please don't tell your husband about this." "what?" "Because there is something about my wife that I must tell you. It's not easy to talk about on the phone. I should have gone to the door to report, but there are other people in your family. Moreover, it would not be appropriate to let Mr. Shiokawa know." "This...but," Xinzi hesitated. "What the hell is it? If you could give me a hint..." This was a polite warning. "Then let me tell you briefly. I heard that Mr. Shiokawa is plotting to slander his wife." "Ah?" Xinzi seemed to want to ask something, but hesitated to speak. Tokuyama speculated that Nobuko's silence meant she was upset. "The problem is very delicate." Tokuyama broke the silence. "I have evidence here." "Evidence?" Xinzi exclaimed softly. "Yes...Madam once stayed at the Yumura Onsen Hotel near Kofu, right?" "what." "This is the case. They fabricated false evidence to put the wife in trouble. I can't believe that the planning of this matter is related to your husband. In order to clarify the facts, I would like to interview the details, and please see what I got s material." "I understand." Nobuko replied weakly. "Where shall we meet?" "This... I'm in Ginza, can I invite you to come here? It's on the second floor of 'Wild Pigeon' on Fifth Avenue. It's not very conspicuous here." "I'll be there in an hour. Is it 'Wild Pigeon'?" Nobuko put down the phone. Deshan left the phone booth happily, and his opponent Asano Tadao died.Shimomura said that he knew this fact a few days ago and was very surprised, so there would be no falsehood.According to Shimomura, Associate Professor Asano's suicide was related to Nobuko.Shimomura also said that it may be because of a broken relationship. It can be said that after Tokuyama heard this, his desire for Nobuko became stronger.This is a woman who makes a man sacrifice his life, and taking her as his own is of great value.The withdrawal of the opponent Asano is also extremely rare. One of the parties involved has been sealed forever, eliminating the biggest obstacle.Before, I felt that the existence of the opponent was a headache, and if he talked too much from the side, he would suffer.Instead, he has his own way of life, while he can travel unimpeded. Within an hour, Tokuyama returned to the office refreshed and dealt with some work.After an hour passed, he looked at the clock hands, took out the jewelry box from the deep drawer, and put it in his jacket pocket. "I have something to go out." He greeted the secretary. "Maybe I won't be back today." Deshan walked into the 'Wild Pigeon' five minutes earlier and waited. Fortunately, there were not many customers. Two minutes after the appointed time, Nobuko Shiokawa arrived in a kimono.Although she deliberately dressed plainly, it brought out her bright and clean appearance even more. With a smile on his face, Tokuyama moved the chair and beckoned her to sit down. "Thank you for the hospitality last time," Xinzi said. "Where, I've called many times to disturb you, I'm really sorry." "where." "Come on, please!" Tokuyama asked her to sit across from her and asked the waiter for coffee.Tokuyama smoked a cigarette leisurely, Nobuko's appearance has never been so attractive as it is today.As if waking up from a dream, he felt that his love for Nobuko was deeply rooted. "How is your husband?" he asked casually. "Oh." Nobuko said little, his eyes drooped, and his appearance looked five years younger than his real age.The light that poured in from the window made her cheeks clear like jade.On the face leaning forward, the handsome bridge of the nose reveals wisdom and elegance. "No wonder that university associate professor would lay down his life for it!" Thinking of this, Tokuyama's blood boiled even more.He had possessed several geisha, but it was all by the magic of money.It is impossible to repeat the old trick this time, and it will take a huge effort to get it right.And she is married!This made Tokuyama feel the excitement he hadn't seen for a long time. "Ma'am," he said, with gentlemanly delicacy. "It was also mentioned on the phone just now, and I heard a very strange thing." "Oh." Nobuko still lowered her head. "Ma'am, do you know an associate professor at the university named Asano?" "Ah?" Nobuko raised her eyes in surprise, this expression made Tokuyama feel extraordinarily beautiful. "Yes, I know." The answer was straightforward. "Really?... To be honest, some people say that Madam and that Asano lived together in Yumura Onsen near Kofu." "Ah?" Nobuko stared at Tokuyama in astonishment, her fair neck seemed to be trembling slightly. Deshan thought to himself, the blow was indeed not small.However, without this trick, how could we invite her here?Only this woman is willing to come out when it comes to sensitive areas involving personal privacy. Trivial things are hard to work, so let's use this matter to pester her for the time being. "Of course! Madam doesn't remember it anymore. This incident is incredible." Deshan continued with an indignant face. "I say unbelievable because this trick is Mr. Shiokawa... It was your husband who conspired." "..." Xinzi's shoulder shook. "I couldn't believe it. How could there be a husband who deliberately fabricated charges of infidelity against his wife? Why would he push such a beautiful woman into the trap? It's unimaginable... So I asked the person who revealed the situation, is there any There is no definite evidence..." Nobuko still lowered her eyelids, and the soft and bulging outline of her eyelids made Deshan's heart flutter even more. "As for why this person disclosed the situation to me, it was because he knew that Mr. Yanchuan had a cooperative relationship with our company. Therefore, I was cautious at the beginning, worrying that someone would try to sow discord in order to dismantle the other party's business. I suspect that he belongs to that kind of person, even though he said he got the evidence and let me see the photos... But just to be on the safe side, I would like to ask my wife to see it." Deshan took out a brown envelope from his arms, and put The photo was revealed a little, then turned around and handed to Xinzi. Xinzi took the envelope and pulled out the photo.Of course, this is the "evidence" that Tokuyama ordered Shimomura to enlarge. Tokuyama was fascinated by the changes in Nobuko's expression, and he watched the subtle movements and changes in her face. Xinzi put the photo in an envelope and put it on the table.Then, shrug your shoulders and take a deep breath.However, the intense reaction that Tokuyama was expecting did not appear in her expression. "How is it, ma'am?" Deshan asked. Tokuyama looked at Nobuko who had finished looking at the photos, observing her expression. "How?" he asked again. There was still no expected reaction on her face, her cold eyes and cheeks were as calm as autumn water.It's just a slight frown, if there is any discomfort, that's all. "I don't remember at all." Nobuko said calmly. "Oh, even so," Tokuyama himself nodded deeply two or three times with an exaggerated expression. "I believed it to be true at first. However, I felt relieved after hearing what Madam said. After all, it was fabricated out of thin air. But Madam, Mr. Shiokawa ordered someone else to write this." "It's not enough." "That's true. Would your husband intentionally harm his wife? It's unimaginable. But, there is really a person who was instigated by Yanchuan." "..." "Although this person is young, he is so frank that even I feel ashamed, so it cannot be a lie. In fact, he is one of my subordinates." Nobuko raised her lowered head suddenly, and stared blankly at Tokuyama. "He is a good young man. Although he was ordered to do this kind of thing, he later found out with his conscience and told me the whole truth. He was also the one who handed over this photo." "..." "Oh, I blamed him, why did he agree to do such a thing? However, what he said is also reasonable. Mr. Shiochuan is an important collaborator of our company, so he cannot refuse lightly." "..." "To be more specific, this young man is not directly entrusted by Yanchuan. The entruster is a beautiful woman of twenty-seven or eight years old... The young man is helpless. My subordinate is completely fascinated by that woman." Tokuyama licked his lips. "So, he explained the matter frankly. Although Mr. Shiokawa is very important to our company, he couldn't resist the charm of that woman, so he had to obey... madam?" "Ah?" Nobuko's lowered eyelids flickered. "At first, my subordinates thought that the woman was single. Oh, singleness is indeed single, but as the truth came out...that's what my subordinates said, and I conveyed it as it is. She seems to belong to Mr. Shiokawa..." Tokuyama Deliberately hesitating. "I don't know if it's true or not. My subordinates speculate that she is Mr. Shiokawa's favorite woman." Tokuyama finished speaking in one breath, observing the other party's reaction. However, there was no look of anger on Nobuko's face. Tokuyama thought, huh?Did she already know that her husband was having an affair?So don't care about that.But what would she think?Ordinary people will be somewhat touched when they hear such topics being brought up again.Especially when she learned that this despicable act was done by her husband's wife, Nobuko should of course change color, but her face remained calm. Deshan's expected goal failed, and he felt empty and anxious to save. "Ma'am," Deshan lowered his voice. "Did you already know that your husband has that woman?" "..." Xinzi kept silent, with a no-comment expression on his face. "Really?" Tokuyama nodded alone. "So Madam already knew!" He sighed himself. "...Yeah, this kind of thing is nothing new! Your husband is so outstanding, it is not surprising that there are one or two women outside. But I think Madam should not swallow her anger. Now that you know, I don't have any worries, right? Is there such a relationship?" Still no response. "I have a feeling. Look! He took great pains to do that kind of trick, especially to frame his wife. Maybe it was the woman's trick, that is, she wanted to drive away the lady, and the magpie's nest would be occupied." ..." "..." "I think Madam must have been troubled by this matter for a long time. I express my sympathy." Deshan became calm and dignified. "However, if Yanchuan really did this, of course it was because of the influence of that woman. You can't accept it. Oh, as a friend, I can't stand it. Considering Madam's situation, I feel as angry as I am wronged ...However, if Jinwu Zangjiao restrained herself a bit, it would be reasonable. But she is so blatantly instigating Mr. Shiokawa to set a trap, she is really snake-hearted!" "..." "This is my idea. Just listen to me, Madam may not agree with it, or she may not believe it at all. How about you ask my subordinates directly? To be honest, I still let him wait elsewhere... "Professor Tokuyama said while spying on Nobuko's reaction. "Ma'am, have you seen that young man?" he asked tentatively. "This..." Nobuko didn't seem interested, and the silent answer seemed to say that it was meaningless to meet. "After listening to what Mr. Tokuyama said, I already understand it very clearly." She replied with a faint smile. "How can that work?" Tokuyama said emphatically. "It is precisely because Madam is too accommodating that this result is the result. Oh, I even want my wife to learn Madam's tolerance!" He smiled to himself. "Meet my subordinates, and you will learn more about the inside story. Although this is a painful thing for Madam, the key issue is not to let it go, it is best to conduct a thorough investigation." "This..." Xinzi was unwavering. Seeing that Nobuko was unwavering, Tokuyama played the trump card he had prepared in advance. "Ma'am, I don't think this matter can only be explained by empathy." "..." "I think there are other important secrets behind it. Maybe I shouldn't say this, but I sympathize with Madam and think of Madam in every way. Oh, maybe I'm meddling, but you are an acquaintance after all, so I can't bear to stand by. " "..." "I want to tell you that, in fact, it was mentioned in the past that Yanchuan raised huge sums of money from me." "Yes, I know that." "Really?...Then, this fund includes loans from Shiokawa Bank and personal loans. There is nothing wrong with the bank's loan. What I am worried about is his personal loan, which is 60 million yen. .” Nobuko raised her head, and only then did she know the full amount of the loan. "You also know this amount, he borrowed it from his wife's family." "..." "I also put a lot of effort into this project. Because once I rely on loans to do things, I immediately feel a heavy responsibility, and even started to investigate the nature of the funds, only to find out that the 60 million came from my wife's natal family." "..." "So I thought about it. Yes, thinking about this fabrication together, I think there must be a ghost in it." "..." Nobuko's expression tightened a little. There is indeed a reaction, Deshan thought, and he has to work harder. "I've finally come to a conclusion. But it's too scary to tell Ma'am." After speaking, he paused for a moment, as if testing the effect of his words. Nobuko's cheeks seemed to be flushed with blood, and his eyes were fixed on Tokuyama, urging him to continue talking. "Don't worry, please speak! No matter what Mr. Tokuyama says, I will not panic." "Really?" Tokuyama sighed. "Then I will be blunt. That is to say, your husband... If my subordinates have not lied, your husband may try to get rid of the obligation to repay the loan." "..." "That is to say, first label the wife as an infidelity, and then use this as an excuse to write off the loan. There is no other conclusion...Of course, maybe my estimation is too extreme, or my thinking is too biased." Nobuko's gaze shifted from Tokuyama's face to the dining table, where a petal fell from the rim of the vase.In the reflection of the glass plate, Tokuyama's broad shoulders were shaking. "However, this is not my imagination. My subordinates have obtained the evidence." "You said you got the evidence, right?" Nobuko asked back. "Yes. Oh, if the word "evidence" is not pleasing to the ear, or the exact basis is fine. Therefore, Madam must go and see my subordinates." Xinzi thought for a moment. "Then see you!" "Ah? Do you agree to see him?" Deshan secretly cheered in his heart, but his face maintained a painful expression. "I still suggest that you go to see him." He restrained his impetuous emotions. "If I convey this matter, there will always be distortions. And there are some things that my subordinates may prefer to say directly to Madam." "Where is he?" "I told him to wait at the restaurant in Shinjuku." "Then let's go!" Afraid that the other party would change his mind, Tokuyama quickly got up and walked to the cashier. Came to the street, walked from Shiseido to the parking lot, and the black imported car belonged to Tokuyama.The driver saw the owner and hurriedly sat up.Tokuyama opened the car door and let Nobuko get in first.He got into the car immediately, consciously keeping a certain distance. "However, it's true!" Deshan looked out the window and said again. "There are really ruthless women in the world!" He nonchalantly saw Nobuko's fair face from the corner of his eye. "Your husband has such an idea, it must be instigated by that woman. Anyway, your husband has both social status and money... That woman must be in the business of accompanying wine." He tried not to speak ill of her husband in front of Xinzi, in order to show the generosity of a man.In addition, Xinzi cannot be aware of his true purpose, so try to speak badly about that woman.No matter how much Nobuko pretends to be calm, women are women after all.She must have enjoyed belittling her opponent. Nobuko remained silent.It was dark outside the window, and she couldn't see her expression clearly, and couldn't judge the effect of these words. Tokuyama changed the subject and talked about his career.How bright the future is, how great the chances of winning are, they boast inadvertently.This is also to make women feel admiration for themselves. Nobuko didn't answer, and of course he didn't ask.If it was an ordinary young woman, she would definitely get to the bottom of it. Tokuyama feels that now he has grasped the true state of Shiokawa and his wife's relationship.This woman remained calm even when she heard that her husband was having an affair.But when he heard that the money from his mother's family had flowed into Yanchuan's hands, and he wanted to write it off through slander, he agreed to go with him. The relationship between husband and wife has cooled to freezing point, will Koji Shiokawa never have a married life with Nobuko?No, it should be Nobuko who rejected him from the beginning.This is because she knew that Koji Yanchuan had another new love. Deshan started his own imagination and connected Nobuko's age of twenty-seven or eight with the body of a woman who had not had a married life for a long time.Generally speaking, this kind of woman will not give in to rhetoric, women have their own weaknesses, but this woman has a high spirit.If so, this could be said to be her weakness. Tokuyama thought, if Shiokawa tried to make an excuse not to repay Nobuko's natal family's 60 million yen, then transfer the money to Nobuko's name.That is to say, let Xinzi be grateful to himself, so that he can catch Xinzi's heart. As for Koji Shiokawa, he can ignore it, anyway, he is trying to step on him to get closer to Keijiro Tochi.Sooner or later, he will fall out with this conspirator, and perhaps the 60 million is the best opportunity to break up! The car finally came to Shinjuku through the crowded streets. In front of a certain restaurant, Tokuyama asked the driver to stop the car, and the two walked into the brightly lit shop. "Welcome!" The waitress greeted. Tokuyama didn't pay any attention, and deliberately scanned the store in a grandiose manner, but of course there was no sign of Shimomura.He walked out of the restaurant, the driver opened the door, and he jumped into the car. "It's a step late." He said regretfully. "Shimomura is working for me, and I have an important appointment. He has been waiting before, but unfortunately we hit the peak traffic, and finally missed... However, he left a note, and he is nearby. Anyway, we are on the way, let's Let's find him together!"
