Chapter 2281
Author: Lord Leaf
After leaving Pearl River Point, Charlie rushed to the wet market.

He had spent too much time dealing with Wendy’s matter. If he didn’t hurry to buy the food back to cook, Claire would not be able to eat lunch when she got home from work.

Although Aurous Hill was an ancient city, it was getting more and more modernized nowadays. Most of the old buildings were either destroyed, demolished, or renovated to suit the modernization of the city. They had basically turned into skyscrapers and high-rise buildings of the modern metropolitan city.

Many traditional craft stores and markets were gradually being replaced by a variety of luxurious shop lots as well as integrated supermarkets.

In the early years, there were a lot of roadside barbers who had excellent skills in haircutting and shaving. A simple haircut or shave was only about two to three dollars.

However, these ancient and old-schooled barbers had long since disappeared and were now replaced by the dazzling and high-end hair sal

    As a global investor, the Mitsui Group wasn't just capable of forking 5 billion easily—they could say with no uncertainty that they could profit steadily with it.If Yoshitaka did as Charlie asked, that meant he was giving up on 780 million US dollars and basically giving him the money for free… and that was only if he did everything demanded flawlessly, or it would be 5.78 billion dollars in total loss.Yoshitaka would bawl if he could—as a businessman, profit was the only thing he cared about, and it was always an instinct for him to get the most out of any deal. Even if there was something to be lost, he would make sure to minimize said loss.Hence, he told Charlie, "Mr. Wade, the Mitsui Group is as influential as we are reputable. You really have nothing to worry about. I'll carry out your instructions to the letter…"Charlie nodded and shrugged. "Sure, I trust you. Like I said, you will have your money back if no issue surfaces in three years…"Pausing, he then asked, "Perhaps you

    Even as Tanya was fangirling over Charlie, Yoshitaka was feeling both shocked and lucky as he saw that Charlie had everything under control.He breathed a sigh of relief and held a thumbs-up at him, exclaiming, "That was amazing, Mr. Wade! Those trained samurai didn't even stand a chance!"Charlie eyed him and said coolly, "You're dealing with the bodies. And remember, keep things clean and leave no traces behind… Or if you do, make sure it can't be traced back to me and cause me any unnecessary trouble. Understand?"Yoshitaka glanced at the dozenish corpses lying around and felt a migraine coming up.It's not like his company hadn't dealt with corpses—they just had never had to deal with so many and at the same time.It was especially a problem as they were in the middle of a busy city like Tokyo.Even so, his daughter had promised Charlie that she would disown him if he screwed up. Despite Kokomi's delicate appearance, no one could change her mind once she had decided on anything, a

    The samurai who had managed to rally his comrades earlier could see that they were getting restless again, and he yelled, "Gentlemen! What are we if not slaves to our family's fate?! And all we need is to succeed this one time, and they will live happily ever after! What do we have to fear—argh! My eyes!!!"He was halfway through his motivational speech when his vision abruptly turned black amidst a terrible pain.When he reached up, he could feel two solid plastic tubes sticking out of his eye sockets!The other samurai had almost been motivated and ready to follow him for a death charge, only for that rally call to turn into a scream.They turned toward the samurai and were horrified to watch as he bled crimson out of his eye sockets, his screams immediately blood-curdling!It was such a gruesome sight that Yoshitaka retched loudly while Kokomi had to look away in fear.Tanya herself was afraid to even look at the bodies at first, but now, the gruesome sight seemed to invoke her morb

    When the samurai started charging, they presumed Charlie and the others were victims at their mercy. That was why the ones at the front were only focused on cutting them down and claiming Tanya's head, while the ones at the rear were considering how many more chops they should add on the corpses to display their savagery.And so, none of them expected their helpless victim to fight back with such terrible savagery, knocking down eight of their men in a split second!It only left them further horrified to see that their dead comrades still had their eyes wide open with various cosmetic items sticking out of their heads.The ninjas were the best when it came to wielding sneak weapons, launching shurikens out of their sleeves, and claiming the lives of many unsuspecting victims.However, that still meant a ninja could only throw two shurikens at best—one from each sleeve, meaning that each ninja could at most kill two. None of them could have expected someone to kill eight people with the

    Then, with a flick of his wrist, all the cosmetic items Charlie had grabbed earlier appeared between his fingers.At the same time, the samurai were reaching them, with the handful leading the charge having their katanas raised in the air for a mean swing.Yoshitaka was trembling with rage, but started backward, intent on hiding in the dressing room.Even if the wooden door was not stopping the samurai's katana, he was sure that living one second longer was ideal.However, as soon as he opened the door, Kokomi caught him with a vice-grip and dragged his limp form back to the group, warning him coldly, "You've embarrassed us plenty today, Father. Please show some dignity when it matters!"Yoshitaka was left fuming. "Dignity? What dignity?! We're about to be diced into pieces!"That was when the air swished loudly, as the keen edge of each katana flashed, reflecting the ceiling lights in a confusing dazzle.At the same time, Charlie suddenly spread his arms and leaped forward, the air cr

    The backstage hallway was long and straight, dividing into a Y-shaped intersection with two entrances.However, even with two paths of escape, there was no way of running past the samurai in such a narrow path, while the many rooms down the hallway were enclosed and had no emergency doors from which to escape.Hence, with the samurai cutting them off, they were completely surrounded.On top of that, they had no guns, and with so many people pincering them, each of them fighters who could match the average ninja, there was no escape.Hence, everyone's faces turned ashen, aside from Charlie and Kathleen.Even Yoshitaka, brimming with confidence a second ago, realized in horror that he might really die here.But at that moment, Charlie's eyes flashed coldly as he turned to Yoshitaka, "Can you provide immunity if I kill?""Wait, what?!" Yoshitaka was having a brain fart and was even more confused when Charlie asked something so crazy. "W-What did you just say?"Charlie was left fum
