His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Chapter 653

Chapter 653: SHE FOOLED HIM

Yagi felt a little helpless after hearing what his little niece said. However, he did not scold her for being rude to the woman. After all, it was indeed inappropriate for the waitress to ask a child such a question instead of doing her job.

With that, the two of them returned to the house.

Their current home was a mansion Yagi bought when Misaki started attending the Blue Monarch Institute. The house was closer to the school and central enough for Yagi to run his businesses without inconvenience.

However, it was nothing like the Yagi ancestral home, where everything was rich and full of history. It was not just a house; it was a museum that documented the history of the yakuza.

Choosing their current house was not just a case of convenience. Yagi also wanted to protect Misaki from her memories of her kidnapping and her father dying.

Of course, they would need to return to their roots one day, but for now, they had a good thing going on. Their life was good.

“Put away your food and get ready for bed,” Yagi said as he placed the bags of food on a table in the kitchen.

.....

“Yes, sir!” Misaki said with a mock salute.

Yagi smiled a little and shook his head with amusement. He was happy to see Misaki so cheerful. He was glad to see that his neglect had not yet caused a lot of damage to her. He patted her head lightly before walking to his study.

Teacher Emi was right.

As long as he showed his care, Misaki would respond. She was a good child, but she had been dealt a few bad cards. As her uncle and guardian, he must not allow himself to become part of her problems or an obstacle.

When he stepped into his study, his eyes drifted to the picture of his older brother. His brother had always been the best one. He was smart and strong, yet he was kind and generous. He would have been a great head for the clan.

His only failing in life was his choice of women, especially Misaki’s mother.

The woman fooled him for a long time, and despite their father’s protests, he married her. It was only after the fact that he saw her true colours. When Misaki was born, she became an even worse human being, if that were possible.

Fortunately, his older brother was also decisive.

He handled the divorce quite swiftly after realising the level of danger that she put the young Misaki. Moreover, he took full custody of the child and ensured that the woman could never legally come in contact with their daughter.

Unfortunately...

Yagi sighed with a familiar sorrow in his heart.

He could still not believe that his brother was gone. Every day, he hoped he would wake up and find him alive.

But alas, he had to accept his loss.

“Don’t worry, brother. I will take care of Misaki.” He said softly while looking at the photo.

Before he could sink further into melancholy, his phone rang. He checked and found it was the man who managed his intelligence network. He knew everything that was happening within and outside their area of operations.

“Yes.” He answered curtly.

“Can you be more polite when answering your calls?” The voice that came through was full of grievances.

“If you knew how to behave like a proper person, would I have to be strict with you?” Yagi still responded to the annoying person.

“Why do you care if I behave properly as long as I am a hardworking subordinate?” The complaining voice was loud.

“Why do you care if I’m rude as long as I’m a good boss?” Yagi was a little amused.

“Fine! No one can win against you.” There was exasperation from the other guy.

“So, did you just call to complain?” Yagi did not want to keep talking to this person.

His subordinate immediately stopped joking around and composed himself.

“I just discovered something that could present a major problem for us. I have been watching for anything that could attract the attention of those annoying people in that OC task force. I found something that could spell a major disaster.” He said sombrely.

The OC was the organised crime task force that watched them for months. If not for their contribution during that incident with the bomb in Tokyo, the police would still be baring down on them. They would have the freedom they had in recent times.

While they were in the clear for now, it would only take a minor thing to be under investigation once again. The yakuza business was naturally not completely clean, but the members knew their limits when conducting their matters.

Unfortunately, that did not mean someone was not always waiting for them to make a mistake. So, they were extremely cautious when dealing with anything that could attract the wrong type of attention.

“What is it?” Yagi asked seriously as he sat behind his desk.

“I have not yet confirmed the details, but there seems to be a new drug in Tokyo. At first, it did not seem to be something new. I mean, this drug is like most drugs designed to promote hyperactivity, especially in clubs. It was not until someone overdosed that news about its novelty spread in the underground.” He reported.

“What exactly happened?” Yagi knew that despite his long-windedness, Forest would not emphasize the problem unless it was serious.

“The young woman who overdosed is a well-known party girl downtown. If I’m not wrong, she was collaborating with the supplier of that new drug. She seems to have been distributing the drugs while club hopping.” Forest explained.

“She partied for hours without losing energy. She kept going and on and on. At some point near a morning, she collapsed to the floor. She did not lose consciousness. She still wanted to keep partying. According to the rumours and reports, she had many wounds, especially on her feet. Her ankle might have been sprained, broken or swollen, but no one noticed anything.” He continued.

“In essence, this new drug seems to give people endless energy and insensitivity to pain. Moreover, I do not think the drug affects the user’s thinking, except for their good judgement. Apart from noticing the energy, that girl seemed to have been coherent until she collapsed.” Forest sighed.

Yagi’s frown became tight and tense.

“What happened to the girl?” He asked.
