Chapter 149 Rectifying Social Customs
On the afternoon of the second day, they arrived at the location for their late-night chat.
This is an ancient and magnificent castle, no less spectacular than the Twilight Villa. It is hidden in the mountains and forests, and only a secluded path leads to it.
Many expensive cars of different brands were already parked in the open space beside the castle. Even the two Porsches that Bai Yeshu brought out from the Nican Conference looked ordinary.
Perhaps because we arrived late, the castle was quiet, with no one coming in or out.
Bai Yexiu looked around and spotted a familiar car among a group of luxury cars—Gin's Porsche 356A.
This antique car, with its rustic yet impressive style, stands out among a group of luxury cars.
Gin is here too?
Bai Yexiu found it amusing and smiled as he stepped forward to knock on the castle's gate.
The person who opened the door was Shin Nitta, the boss's old butler at the Longze Mansion in New York, who was also an acquaintance of Bai Yexiu.
"Young Master? You actually came too?" Nitta Shin was very surprised when he opened the door.
"Haven't been here for years, just came to join the fun." Bai Yexiu gave a bright smile and walked straight inside.
Butler Nitta watched Bai Yexiu's retreating figure from afar and shook his head.
This aggressive demeanor doesn't suggest they're just here for the fun of it.
Soon, what happened next confirmed Nitta's guess.
…………
Byakuya passed by a room and saw Siru enjoying himself.
Xilu looked badly injured. Not only was his arm in a sling, but his face and head were also covered with several bandages. There were also crutches next to the chair, indicating that he was also lame in one leg.
However, he is currently enjoying a shoulder massage and tea-pouring service, surrounded by two bodyguards and a beautiful female assistant.
Yes, he used the bodyguard for a shoulder massage, and the beautiful assistant was dressed rather provocatively, all white, swaying her hips as she poured tea in front of Xilu. Xilu also occasionally touched the female assistant inappropriately.
It's surprising that even after being beaten up like this, Xilu still knows how to enjoy himself.
Bai Yexiu's lips twitched, but he quickly smiled happily.
No subordinates are allowed in the late-night meeting room; this is an old rule. However, in recent years, because the boss is not present, some members have stopped following this rule.
"Oh, you know how to enjoy yourself. I remember that you're not allowed to bring any subordinates in, right?" Bai Yexiu stepped into the room, his tone rather sarcastic.
"It's you?" Xilu's expression was rather unpleasant, and he retorted defiantly, "I'm injured like this, can't I even bring a few of my men in to serve me?"
Bai Yexiu chuckled and flicked out three scalpels from his hand.
“Then I have reason to suspect that what you brought in might be rats. As a code name member of the organization, I have the authority to dispose of them.”
Having been with Xilu for so long, the two bodyguards and the beautiful assistant naturally understood what "rat" meant, and their faces immediately turned flustered.
"You only have one leg crippled, yet you brought three people in. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were paralyzed from the waist down and could only move your head. How about I make you paralyzed from the waist down so you can bring all three of them in? Otherwise, what do you think the rules of our late-night chat are?" Bai Yexiu twirled his scalpel, his eyes full of cunning.
"You...!" Xilu's face flushed red with anger, but he quickly regained his composure and began to argue, "There are plenty of members who do this. How can you possibly manage them all?!"
Just as Bai Yexiu was about to speak, a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Who says it can't be managed?"
Gin, exuding a powerful aura, walked in with a cigarette dangling from his lips, a gun in his left hand, and a corpse dragging behind him with his right.
His height of over 1.9 meters instantly blocked out the light, casting a huge shadow that enveloped Siru, who was sitting in the chair.
"Koto-chan?"
This very intimate nickname was blurted out by Bai Yexiu.
Gin gave Bai Yexiu a sharp sidelong glance, signaling him not to use that nickname in front of others.
The latter nodded, smiled, and looked at Xilu.
Bai Yexiu's frail appearance makes him seem less intimidating, but Gin is completely different.
The two men stood in front of Xilu, their presence exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression.
"This is the eighth of my men's corpses that I'm going to throw outside. You've violated the rules. Do you think I can stop you?" Gin sneered, throwing the corpse with a bullet wound to the head onto Sir's table, causing the four men to back away in fear.
“Yes, all the subordinates that the members brought into the inner area are suspected of being rats. The task force’s job is to uphold the rules and eliminate the rats. We did nothing wrong.” Bai Yexiu chimed in from the side.
"sorry!"
The two bodyguards and the female assistant simultaneously bowed at a 90-degree angle, loudly apologizing to Bai Yexiu and Gin. Then, as if fleeing something terrifying, they hurriedly ran out of the castle, leaving a bewildered Xilu behind.
Gin remained silent, bent down, grabbed the corpse again, and dragged it out. Bai Yexiu ignored him and went to the next room.
The butler, Nitta, who was standing guard at the door, listened to the commotion and smiled with satisfaction.
Finally, someone's going to put these arrogant executives in check. He'd told them long ago that their subordinates weren't allowed in, but those executives used their power to intimidate him, completely disregarding him. A group of them swaggered in with their entourage, and he, an old man, couldn't stop them even if he wanted to. This has been the case for the past few years, even when the boss isn't around.
The butler, Nitta, stood at the door and grinned foolishly.
Bai Yexiu arrived at the next occupied room.
Coincidentally, the room next door was where Nozawa Hiroichi was resting, and it was separated from Siru's room by only one wall.
Nozawa Hiroshi had a smile plastered on his face, trying to please everyone, but he did follow the rules and didn't bring his subordinates, so Bai Yexiu couldn't really find anything wrong with him for the time being.
However, just as he was about to turn and walk away, Bai Yexiu sensed something was wrong.
He just saw something moving inside the locker through that crack.
Bai Yexiu strode forward and opened the cabinet.
He saw one of his men huddled inside the cabinet, staring at him in terror.
Bai Yexiu revealed an innocent smile, grabbed the male subordinate by the collar, and pulled him out of the closet.
This Nozawa Hiroichi is definitely not so obedient.
Bai Yexiu turned to look at the surprised Nozawa Hiroichi, his innocent smile still lingering on his face: "Hiding a subordinate is an even greater crime. If you hadn't hidden him, I might have let this subordinate off the hook, but now I suspect he's a rat. And you, you have ulterior motives."
Just as Nozawa Hiroichi was about to speak and explain, Bai Yexiu raised his right hand and plunged a scalpel into the neck of his subordinate with a sharp, forceful motion.
In an instant, blood splattered across half the wall.
