Dragon Raja: Starting with Deadpool, Evolving Through Devouring

Page 116

Five billion yen?

There's no such thing as a coincidence in this world.

The exorbitant bounty incident a couple of days ago caused quite a stir in the entire underworld and mixed-race circles, and Su Enxi and Jiu De Mai were naturally aware of it as well.

When they heard that the wanted person was Cao Han, the two of them were quite gleeful. Some were happy that these people were so foolish as to accept the bounty, while others were happy about Cao Han.

The 5 billion yen that Herzog offered as a bounty for Cao Han is currently inside the Paradise House.

Kazama Ruri originally intended to give the money to Cao Han, but when Cao Han declined, she resorted to a "roundabout" tactic, saying that she would contribute it as development funds for the association.

To be honest, a stable and sufficient source of funding is essential for an association to develop in the long term.

We can't expect all members to work for the association out of pure passion and pay out of their own pockets.

Look at the guild's current members...

They are all incredibly capable, but if you're going to let them use this money for investment, it's more reliable to just find a top-notch broker.

What Cao Han didn't expect was that when one door closes, another opens; Su Enxi's actions were exactly what he wanted.

Fortunately, 5 billion yen is nothing to Su Enxi. The total amount of global investments she controls is an astronomical figure that is unimaginable to most people.

What are your expectations for investment returns?

"Expectations? Hopefully, it will generate stable returns with low risk."

"That makes things much easier." Su Enxi was still a little worried that Cao Han might ask for exorbitant returns, such as many times the initial investment. "If we're talking about low-risk, stable-return investment methods..."

Real estate, please!

Use this money to buy office buildings, commercial buildings, shops, and the like.

At present, with both the Japanese economy and real estate market at their peak, it's no longer a good time to buy. My suggestion to you, my friend, is to consider real estate in first-tier cities in China.

Judging from the current situation, subletting these properties could generate a substantial and stable income, and their value is expected to at least double within the next five to ten years!

Domestic real estate!?

After hearing Su Enxi's suggestion, Cao Han suddenly realized that he had forgotten about this.

Even in the world of Dragon Raja, the motherland is still the same motherland, and the crazy rise in the housing market is still fresh in our minds.

"Understood!"

Seeing that Cao Han had completely taken her advice to heart, Su Enxi wondered when this guy would finally leave.

Having someone in your life who can control your fate at any moment is torture.

When are you planning to go back to China?

"But...it might take some more time."

"I might have to go back to school in a few days. How about you help me bring some gifts back to China for Mingfei?"

"Hahahaha..." Su Enxi chuckled dryly a few times, "Helping to bring gifts back to China is no problem, but who is Mingfei?"

Pack!

Keep pretending!

Cao Han didn't expose Su Enxi's poor acting skills, but continued to say, "If you say you don't know them, then you don't know them. I'll send you their contact information and address via text message. Just deliver it to me."

Mai Shude, who remained silent, could only cheer for her sister in her heart.

Their dedicated team of nurses has a clear division of labor. If it's a field mission requiring assassination, exploration, or fighting the enemy, then Mai Shude will naturally take charge. However, she's really not good at communication.

"Since you all seem so nervous, then it's settled. I'll have someone deliver the gifts to you later."

As for the souvenirs and gifts for Lu Mingfei and the others, Cao Han had already thought of them.

Lu Mingfei, in particular, was the easiest to understand and satisfy; he simply presented a large gift package of electronic products, including mobile phones, tablets, laptops, game consoles, and more...

For wealthy young masters like Chu Zihang and Chen Hao, it was a bit more mentally taxing, but Cao Han could handle it all.

The former directly sent a complete set of "Slam Dunk" manga, complete with the author's handwritten additions to the ending and his autograph.

A gift that is one of a kind in the whole world!

As for how he got his hands on it, Cao Han said that was not important.

An author, who was tied up by a group of burly, tattooed men, thought he was going to die, but they handed him a pen and asked him to complete the ending of the comic and then sign each and every one of the comics.

Even when he was sent back to the original place, he was still somewhat dazed and incredulous.

What's wrong with this world?

Now kidnappers aren't asking for money anymore, they're asking for the ending of a comic book and an autograph?

Cao Han probably never expected that he would inadvertently cause a global frenzy among Slam Dunk fans, because the author immediately announced the very next day that he would be drawing the final ending.

As for Chen Hao in the end...

At Fingel's suggestion, we got him a complete set of genuine DVDs featuring the "one cry, two tantrums, three elegant gestures" routine.

Cao Han only hopes that young people will be more restrained after receiving this gift and will not become addicted to it.

"Norma, help me dial Genji's number."

"Ok."

To be honest, using artificial intelligence can be quite addictive; Cao Han had already become completely accustomed to having "Norma" on his phone.

"Commissioner Cao Han, there is an email in your inbox from Executive Director von Schneider. Would you like to view it?"

"Oh? My advisor actually emailed me." Cao Han was a little surprised, and at the same time, he immediately noticed something was amiss.

Von Schneider adopted a largely hands-off approach towards Cao Han, never interfering with his operations in Japan, but simply providing him with various forms of assistance.

For example, equipment provided by the Equipment Department, etc.

For ordinary matters, there's absolutely no need to use such a formal method as sending an email; a simple phone call would suffice.

Therefore... something may have happened at Kassel College that he was unaware of.

"Norma, just read the contents of the email to me."

"Ok."

As Norma's emotionless voice blared from the phone's speaker, after reading the entire email sent by von Schneider, he finally understood.

In short, shortly after the headmaster of Kassel College, Angers, attended a meeting of the board of directors, an investigation team appointed by the board of directors forcefully moved into the school.

The investigation was ostensibly aimed at Principal Angers, but according to von Schneider's observations over the past few days, the focus seemed to be more on his newly admitted student, Cao Han.

The investigation team repeatedly reviewed materials including, but not limited to, onboarding training, 3E test videos, professor interviews, and various related reports, as if trying to find some problems in them.

With Principal Angers away attending a board meeting and Vice-Principal Night Watchman unable to attend to other matters at a critical moment in the Nibelungen Project, it can be said that the only person at Kassel College who can make decisions right now is von Schneider, the head of the executive department.

While everyone at Kassel College may seem to be moving toward the same goal, it is never a monolithic entity, and there are different factions among the various professors.

The timing of the investigation team's entry into the school was perfect. Relying on the investigative authority granted by the board of directors, they were incredibly arrogant and domineering.

He completely ignored Minister von Schneider, doing whatever he wanted and investigating whatever he wanted.

Today they summon a professor for questioning, tomorrow they seek out a student, and they even scrutinize the principal's various expenses.

The phrase "malicious intent" perfectly describes the investigation team!

The seemingly ordinary task progress query in the email sent to Cao Han by his mentor, von Schneider, was actually intended to reveal information to Cao Han, and it also seemed to suggest that he stay in Japan for a while longer to avoid the investigation team.

The thought that the investigation team was backed by the so-called school board members...

"I haven't even gone looking for trouble with you yet."

Cao Han recalled the broken alchemical bullet he had put away, and the words Fingel had reminded him of.

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, the implication that the mastermind was pointing directly at the Board of Trustees made me snort coldly.

He had originally planned to spend a few days having fun in Japan after finishing the final cleanup work.

After all, this was Cao Han's first time visiting Japan across both lifetimes. Putting aside the country's and people's inherent flaws, there were still places worth exploring.

The promised otaku mecca, Akihabara, has yet to materialize due to various factors.

It seems that some people don't want him to do this!

"Norma, please send an email back to my advisor."

What was the reply?

"Just reply with 'Received, don't worry.'" Since he had made up his mind to set off for school as soon as possible, Cao Han felt there was no need for a long reply.

"Okay." With Norma's help, the email was sent across the ocean to Schneider, and the next second, she proactively asked, "Commissioner Cao Han, should we continue to call Yuan Zhisheng?"

"need."

This reminder made Cao Han realize that he had almost forgotten his important business.

"Moshi moshi~ This is Sakura." The phone rang with Sakura Yabuki's cheerful and clear voice, accompanied by various chaotic and noisy sounds.

Where is Genjiro?

"Young Master is currently engaged in battle with the enemy," Sakura Yabuki reported truthfully.

In her field of vision, Genjiro, dressed in a long black trench coat, was surrounded by hundreds of yakuza thugs, making his way in and out of the area seven times, each move completely taking down one of them.

You can tell he was controlling his strength the whole time; otherwise, if he had thrown a full-force punch, the rescue process would have been unnecessary, and it would have been simpler and faster to just take him to the crematorium for cremation.

Having only been in the position of head of the Snake Clan for less than three days, Genjiro's true colors were revealed; he couldn't possibly sit still in that position.

After leaving his "brain trust" crow to handle official business in the office, he took Yabuki Sakura out to carry out the mission himself.

These gangsters all came from a gang called "Red Flag" because they recklessly sold white flour in the territory of the Snake-Headed Eight Families, and were directly exposed to the Snake-Headed Eight Families by their competitors.

Having nothing better to do, Genjiro learned of this and personally went to the headquarters of the Red Flag.

Thus, the scene before us, where one person takes on a hundred, came about.

"Enemy? Who? Do you need backup?"

“No need.” Sakura Yabuki had been observing from the outside for a long time. Most of the members of this Red Flag were unscrupulous young people who didn’t know their own limitations, what is commonly known as hotheads.

There were no mixed-race individuals among them. With the young master's strength, in less than ten minutes, this gang called Red Flag would cease to exist in Japan.

"Mr. Cao Han, please wait a moment!"

Thinking of the relationship between Genjiro and Cao Han, Sakura Yabuki immediately raised her phone, shaking it and shouting loudly, "Young Master, Mr. Cao Han is calling for you~~~"
