"What the hell are you doing, Duwo? Did you leave something out when you gave me the information? That person actually jumped into the river and escaped!"
Yang Xiao was reviewing documents when a thunderous voice came through Toga Himiko's earpiece beside him. It was clearly Kagura venting her frustration.
Toga Himiko yanked off her earpiece, threw it onto the floor, and said, "I don't want to do this anymore!"
Yang Xiao's expression changed. He immediately stood up and grabbed Toga Himiko. "What are you doing, princess? What happened now?"
"She yelled at me. I don't want to do this anymore. I'm tired every day. I want an easy job." Toga Himiko's eyes reddened as she spoke, looking like a little girl.
Yang Xiao rubbed his forehead, thought for a moment, then looked at Toga Himiko. "Pull yourself together. This job is already easy enough. As long as you don't mess up the reports, there won't be any problems. The pay is high too. Where else could you get this kind of treatment?"
"But I don't like people yelling at me either." Toga Himiko puffed up her cheeks angrily.
"Look, you yell at me all the time, and I don't say anything, do I? Come on, princess, just pay a little more attention. It's easy to get into the core of the Problem Solver, but hard to get out. Just put up with it, okay? How about I have Gin-san give you a couple more bottles of drinks later? I'll cover the bill." Yang Xiao could only say this to calm Toga Himiko down.
Toga Himiko actually felt a little happy when she heard that. She could have more drinks, so she would just endure it!
Thus, Toga Himiko silently returned to her seat and began apologizing to Kagura. Failed jobs were actually quite common. Kagura had not shown her true face either; she had been disguised.
The next time she targeted the same person, Kagura would adopt a different appearance. The other party might notice, but there was nothing to be done about that.
Kagura finally calmed down. After all, Toga Himiko was a newcomer, so she could not be too harsh. Newcomers needed to be tempered before they could grow more mature.
At that moment, Tae Shimura had entered the elevator. The camera inside was aimed directly at her, and on the other end of the feed, a greasy, potbellied middle-aged man stared fixedly at Tae Shimura on the screen, drooling without realizing it.
"What a stunning beauty. I've slept with plenty of women, but her quality is far better than any of the previous ones. I really struck gold this time!"
The man seated in front of the computer was naturally Tanigawa Rō. After staring at Tae Shimura for a while, he got up to greet her. He planned to have this beauty today.
When Tae Shimura arrived on the fifteenth floor, the elevator doors opened, and she saw a middle-aged man with a huge belly. Based on Yang Xiao's earlier description, this man was Tanigawa Rō, the Vice President of Xin Yi Company.
"Hahaha, you must be Miss Tsukiko. A pleasure, a pleasure." Tanigawa Rō extended a hand, intending to shake Tae Shimura's.
Tae Shimura smiled calmly and reached out to shake his hand. But how could Tanigawa Rō miss such a good opportunity? He held onto her hand without letting go, rubbing it back and forth.
Tae Shimura wanted to kill this man right then, but she held herself back. A small lapse in patience could ruin a great plan.
"Hehe, Mr. Tanigawa, could we find somewhere to sit and talk first?" Tae Shimura wore an awkward expression. Only then did Tanigawa Rō realize he had been a little too eager. He quickly withdrew his hand and said, "Haha, follow me."
Tae Shimura followed Tanigawa Rō to the door of Room B-05. Tanigawa Rō looked at her and said, "Miss Tsukiko, please come in."
Tae Shimura frowned, though it vanished in an instant. She smiled at Tanigawa Rō and asked, "Mr. Tanigawa, shouldn't it be Room 01?"
"Oh, that room isn't clean. I have people cleaning it right now. Let's discuss the details of our cooperation here first." The excitement in Tanigawa Rō's eyes was impossible to hide, and Tae Shimura saw all of it.
At that moment, Tae Shimura remembered what Yang Xiao had said earlier. Her eyes lit up, and she deliberately began coughing. "Cough... cough cough..."
"Miss Tsukiko, are you all right?" Seeing Tae Shimura suddenly cough, Tanigawa Rō immediately came behind her and rubbed her back with his hand, as if helping her stop coughing.
"Cough, ptoo!" A mouthful of phlegm shot from Tae Shimura's beautiful lips and landed on the red carpet before the door, looking utterly jarring and ugly.
Tanigawa Rō's mouth twitched, and he suddenly felt a little disgusted. How could such a beautiful woman make such an uncouth gesture? Still, Miss Tsukiko was too beautiful. So what if she spat out some phlegm?
Did beautiful people not shit? Did they not spit phlegm?
She wasn't some fucking fairy!
"Uh... Miss Tsukiko, I'll have someone clean it up. You go in first." Tanigawa Rō had obsessive-compulsive tendencies. If he did not have that lump of phlegm cleaned up, he would feel uncomfortable.
Tae Shimura was no fool. She directly linked arms with Tanigawa Rō and said, "Let's go in first. It'll be fine if that gets cleaned up later."
Tanigawa Rō's eyes lit up. Hehe, it seemed this little girl understood why she had come today. She had quite the awareness. In that case, he would have her first.
Filled with excitement, Tanigawa Rō and Tae Shimura entered Room 05. After firmly closing the door, Tanigawa Rō immediately began groping Tae Shimura all over.
Tae Shimura shoved Tanigawa Rō away and said with some anger, "Mr. Tanigawa, we haven't discussed business yet. Aren't you being a little too eager?"
"So that's how it is..." Tanigawa Rō gave an embarrassed smile and said politely, "Miss Tsukiko, please sit down first. Let's properly discuss what comes next."
Shinpachi Shimura had also arrived downstairs at Xin Yi Company. However, he had entered disguised as a delivery man, carrying a Sinbok bag with Sinbok inside.
"Hello, how do I get to the fifteenth floor?" Shinpachi Shimura asked the female receptionist with a smile, looking extremely excited.
The receptionist knew why Shinpachi Shimura was so excited. It was because he had seen such a pretty receptionist as her. Every delivery guy who came here looked at her the same way. She was already used to it.
"It's over there... Hey, wait a second. You're going to the fifteenth floor?" The receptionist suddenly realized that the Vice President was on the fifteenth floor. There should not be any deliveries at this time.
Shinpachi Shimura frowned slightly. Had he been exposed?
"Oh, it's Sinbok. Then go ahead. I'll swipe you up." The receptionist had initially intended to stop Shinpachi Shimura and question him, but once she saw that he was delivering Sinbok, she dismissed her suspicions. The Vice President drank Sinbok every day, though never at a fixed time.
Maybe the Vice President and that beautiful woman were having a heated conversation right now and needed some Sinbok to set the mood?
"Thank you." Shinpachi Shimura breathed a sigh of relief. After he entered the elevator, the receptionist confidently operated it and set his destination to the fifteenth floor.
People visiting Xin Yi Company generally could not operate the elevators themselves and needed a card swipe, unless the receptionist operated it to send them to the designated floor.
