Mission Accomplished

"I successfully left Xin Yi Company," Shinpachi Shimura said over the communicator. After hearing him clearly, Yang Xiao told Tae Shimura, "Shinpachi Shimura has left safely."

"I understand." Tae Shimura shut off the communicator as the seconds slowly ticked by.

Ten minutes later, Tae Shimura deliberately messed up her clothes a little before leaving Room 05.

On Xin Yi Company's surveillance footage, Tae Shimura's departure from Room 05 did not arouse anyone's suspicion. Her clothes were especially disheveled, making it obvious that she had just finished having sex with the Vice President.

The people in the surveillance room paid no attention to it. They all knew how long the Vice President lasted—he was usually done in ten minutes.

Tae Shimura naturally knew that pattern, which was why she had timed her departure so precisely. Yang Xiao had told them all of this. That was right—every piece of information about Tanigawa Rō was in Yang Xiao's hands.

Tanigawa Rō liked drinking Sinbok, and he lasted around ten minutes. All of it had been recorded, which was why this operation went so smoothly.

"Mission accomplished. The target is dead." After leaving Xin Yi Company, Tae Shimura immediately reported to Yang Xiao. She then entered a public restroom, shut the door, and peeled off the fake skin on her face.

An even more beautiful face appeared beneath the fake skin. This was Tae Shimura's true appearance; what she had worn earlier was merely a human-skin mask for disguise.

After changing into a different set of clothes, Tae Shimura left the public restroom. The mission was complete, without the slightest flaw.

After receiving the report, Yang Xiao began logging the information before notifying the client that the mission had been completed. Once the other party confirmed that the target was dead, they would pay the remaining balance.

"Gin-san, it's done. Can I get something to drink?" Yang Xiao sent Wu Shiyin a text message. The message did not mention the mission, and the three words "it's done" were enough.

Wu Shiyin was leaning back in his chair, watching a TV drama on his computer. When he received Yang Xiao's text, he glanced at it and replied, "Not bad. You did well. Go have a drink."

Yang Xiao smiled, slipped his phone back into his pocket, then entered the recreation room and took out two bottles of drinks. He handed one to Toga Himiko. "This one's for you."

Toga Himiko had been in a somewhat bad mood. Seeing Yang Xiao complete his mission so well made her feel a little displeased.

But when Yang Xiao gave her a drink, she immediately tossed those unpleasant feelings aside. She took the drink he handed her and began drinking it, her eyes curving into crescents as she smiled with satisfaction.

Sure enough, a child was still a child. Yang Xiao sighed inwardly, then opened his own drink and took a few sips. It really did taste good.

By then, two hours had passed since Tae Shimura left Xin Yi Company. It was nearly nine at night.

"Why hasn't the Lustful President come out yet? Has he been with too many women lately and lost his stamina?" Several women in the surveillance room were discussing Tanigawa Rō.

That was right. Other than the male security guards, every other employee in the company was female. Just thinking about it made it obvious what kind of mess Tanigawa Rō had turned the company into.

It could be said that the company had been hollowed out by women. The actual President was the most miserable of all. He no longer had any real authority to speak. As long as Vice President Tanigawa Rō remained alive, he could not even step forward and say no.

"I don't know. Should we send someone to check? What if something happened to the Lustful President? Then no one would take care of us anymore," one of the women said.

"Fine. I'll find someone to take a look." Another woman stood up to call someone over.

Most of the women in the surveillance room had slept with the Vice President. The Vice President could be said to have slept with every woman in the company, which was why everyone called him the Lustful President.

A few minutes later, two uniformed women arrived on the fifteenth floor. They had been sent to check on the Vice President. When they reached the door, one of them knocked and asked, "Vice President, are you there?"

They waited for over ten seconds, but no one responded. She knocked again, and after half a minute, there was still no response.

"That's not right. The Vice President never stays overnight at the company, and bathing shouldn't take this long. What's going on?" the other woman with short hair said suspiciously.

"I don't know. I'll knock again." The long-haired woman continued knocking, this time much harder and much louder.

But another minute passed, and there was still no movement inside. Even someone sleeping like the dead should have reacted a little, right?

"No, we're going in. Do you have the spare key to Room 05?" The short-haired woman sensed that something was wrong, and panic began creeping into her voice.

"I do. Wait here." The long-haired woman immediately took the elevator to the eighth floor, where the spare key was kept.

When the long-haired woman returned, the short-haired woman snatched the key from her and opened the door.

"Ah!"

The moment they entered the room, the sight before them froze them in terror. The Vice President was lying spread-eagled on the floor, completely motionless.

The short-haired woman was braver. She stepped forward, dragged the Vice President up, and kept shaking him, her voice filled with urgency.

The long-haired woman placed her hand beneath Tanigawa Rō's nose. A few seconds later, her expression changed, and she collapsed onto the floor. "Vice President... the Vice President isn't breathing anymore."

"What?" Hearing that, the short-haired woman also collapsed onto the floor.

After the incident, the two women immediately contacted security and the front desk, while also calling the police.

After the police arrived, they began reviewing the surveillance footage. Not many people had met with the Vice President that day—only six in total. Among the six, there was only one man; the rest were women.

The sole man had been a delivery worker.

Unfortunately, there were no cameras inside the Vice President's room. The cameras were only in the hallway, so they could merely see people entering and leaving the room.

That day, the Vice President had only spent a long time with one woman. The police learned from the front desk that this period was likely when the two had sex. But after the woman left, the Vice President did not come out for a long time. He had clearly already been murdered.

Therefore, the police began searching for Tae Shimura and Shinpachi Shimura. Of course, the people being sought were Tae Shimura and Shinpachi Shimura in disguise. Several women who had met Tanigawa Rō that afternoon were also brought to the police station to give statements.

Although the two people who met him at night were the most suspicious, those who had met him in the afternoon could not be ruled out either.

Although every channel was trying to suppress the news of Xin Yi Company's Vice President being murdered, they still could not stop the information from leaking.

After the Vice President's death, the President began directly managing Xin Yi Company. Though he had not made any major moves yet, many employees knew that any women who had slept with Tanigawa Rō would be fired, because the President deeply hated such things.
