Chapter 976: Chapter 972: The Wedding Day Has Arrived

Xiao Tian patiently explained, ”Because at this time, if Sugai Yishu actually dies in the hospital, you must never imagine overturning your situation and clearing away the false accusations against you.”

Sugai Yasuaki fell into deep thought but then heard Xiao Tian continue, ”For now, you not only can’t kill Sugai Yishu, but you must also do everything you can to send people to protect him, lest any malicious people act first, kill Sugai Yishu, and then shift the blame... or there might be no need to shift the blame, it could directly cement your guilt!”

”Of course, you should know I’m not talking about the police solidifying your guilt, but in the eyes of the Mizuno Clan and the public, you would be the mastermind behind Sugai Yishu’s murder!”

After listening to Xiao Tian’s thorough analysis, Sugai Yasuaki was drenched in cold sweat, a sense of fear and regret emerged in his heart.

”Mr. Xiao, thank you for your guidance. If it weren’t for your words, I fear I would have fallen into those bastards’ trap!” Sugai Yasuaki bowed respectfully in gratitude.

Xiao Tian didn’t care whether Sugai Yasuaki genuinely overlooked this point or was deliberately flattering him, and directly responded, ”I’m just speaking from a bystander’s perspective, stating what might happen next. You don’t have to be so alarmed.”

Sugai Yasuaki knew the situation was urgent and, without wasting time on this matter, thanked him again and immediately set out to arrange for the protection of Sugai Yishu in the hospital.

Indeed, he wouldn’t overlook the things Xiao Tian spoke of; it’s just that his mind was mostly occupied by anger and resentment at the time, not thinking about it first-hand.

Xiao Tian’s performance this time further convinced Sugai Yasuaki that he hadn’t approached the wrong person, and even if the cost were high, he must keep Xiao Tian by his side.

As he reluctantly sent people to protect Sugai Yishu, Sugai Yasuaki was unaware that things were secretly moving in a favorable direction for him...

...

This time, the breakthrough in the matter appeared again with the Shanchuan Five Brothers.

Although Sugai Kifumi had secretly sent people to try to contact them, the Shanchuan Five Brothers took the matter seriously and immediately released recordings of their negotiations with Sugai Yishu, strongly protesting Sugai Kifumi’s malicious framing and defaming.

When the news reached Sugai Kifumi, it almost blinded him, nearly causing him to spew blood.

You’re a criminal organization, what honor are you talking about?!

But at this point, Sugai Kifumi had no retreat options, so he immediately refuted, claiming the Shanchuan Five Brothers’ recordings were fake, taken from elsewhere and pieced together, and once again hinted that the person providing the recording materials was Sugai Yasuaki.

Seeing the old fellow once again directing the rhythm toward him, Sugai Yasuaki really went all out, having heard the Shanchuan Five Brothers were secretly investigating Sugai Kifumi, he immediately began secretly cooperating in their actions.

Although the Shanchuan Five Brothers were somewhat suspicious of secret assistance, they couldn’t care less, gathered evidence and immediately exposed Sugai Kifumi using his position’s convenience for criminal activities, pushing the development of events into a new climax.

Things reached such an extent that the Shanchuan Five Brothers realized the likelihood of receiving subsequent payment was low, resolutely decided to put Sugai Kifumi down, digging into his history and exposing every detail.

The precision of timing and the thoroughness of dates were like they lived alongside Sugai Kifumi.

At this point, while public opinion was one-sided, some couldn’t help but suspect someone might be secretly assisting the Shanchuan Five Brothers.

Because from start to finish, a total of about twenty hours passed, and to gather so much evidence against Sugai Kifumi in such a short time, it was hard not to suspect other possibilities.

It couldn’t be that the Shanchuan Five Brothers anticipated this day long ago and prepared in advance?

However, regardless of the suspicions, the matter caused a massive stir, quickly leading to police intervention, establishing a special investigation team to verify the claims made by the Shanchuan Five Brothers and announced that results would be publicly disclosed.

At this point, the matter could be considered temporarily concluded.

...

Reclining on the sofa, Xiao Tian simply recalled the events of the past two days, concluding that Sugai Kifumi was, in all likelihood, going to be completely ruined this time.

Though this doesn’t really concern him, he won’t gain any substantial benefit, and even if there are further changes to come, it doesn’t matter significantly.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tian glanced at the time and, having confirmed it was about right, headed to the bathroom; inside there was a man, bare except for a pair of shorts.

After adjusting the water heater affixed to the wall, Xiao Tian exited the bathroom, sensing someone familiar and anticipated approaching slowly...

A moment later, there was a knock at the door, Xiao Tian proceeded to open the door, and sure enough, it was Sugai Yasuaki.

”Mr. Xiao, thank you so much for the help over the past two days!” Sugai Yasuaki expressed sincere gratitude upon meeting.

He then smiled apologetically, ”With all the running around over the past two days, I haven’t worried about you, how has your stay been? Comfortable?”

Xiao Tian did not respond to the question, instead asking, ”Today’s your wedding day, isn’t it?”

Sugai Yasuaki showed a surprised expression and replied, ”Mr. Xiao, it’s very considerate of you. Today is indeed the day of my wedding, and I invite you to come along with me.”

Xiao Tian responded quite straightforwardly this time, ”Then let’s go, don’t let your big day be delayed.”

However, Sugai Yasuaki furrowed his brow, ”What about your girlfriend? Won’t she be coming along?”

Deep down, Xiao Tian cursed Sugai Yasuaki for not relaxing his guard and fully understood that Sugai Yasuaki was merely making excuses, not genuinely allowing Adison Claire to accompany him.

Internally amused, Xiao Tian explained, ”Oh, she’s in the bathroom now, in that case, we’ll wait a bit.”

With this, he moved aside, gesturing for Sugai Yasuaki to enter.

Coincidentally, the sound of the shower emerged from the bathroom, signaling a moment of visible relaxation in Sugai Yasuaki’s eyes.

”Mr. Xiao, maybe we should leave and send someone for your girlfriend later. What do you think?” Sugai Yasuaki feigned a troubled expression while internally pondering what excuse to employ later?

But for now, it’s about taking one step at a time; as long as Adison Claire stays behind, there’s little Xiao Tian can do...
