Chapter 16 Chapter 16: Cooperation
Two days later, a piece of news appeared in the hot topics, but its popularity was average, not even as high as that of a celebrity who suddenly came out. And not many people cared about the news that the chairman and president of Huajin Group was seriously ill, which was related to this information, except for the group's creditors and some partners.
Apparently under great pressure in this regard, the heir of the group quickly came out to clarify that this was a false report. His father was in good health and handled affairs until one or two in the morning every day. How could he be seriously ill?
However, the mainstream media still believed that it was a fact that the head of Huajin Group was seriously ill, and there were slightly more reports, but apart from relevant practitioners, there was still little attention.
"The chairman of a group with terminal cancer?"
While browsing his phone, Shiraishi Hang clicked on the relevant information to learn more about it. The media also kindly summarized the history of the Hananishi Group and the achievements of Hirosue Nobuo, allowing Shiraishi Hang to have a basic understanding of the group.
This is a company that started out as a chain hotel operator and is also involved in hotel design, hotel management service personnel training, winery operations and other aspects.
However, there was a period of decline. After Nobuo Hirosue took over, he carried out drastic reforms and barely brought the group back to the second-tier conglomerate team, but it was obviously unable to launch an impact on the first-tier.
It is not a good idea for the Holy Infant Society to always hide at the bottom, so Bai Shihang has been looking for a consortium to make a wave of interest exchanges so that the Holy Infant Society can continue to develop and come out from time to time to make its presence felt.
In Bai Shihang's eyes, the chess piece of the Holy Infant Society has actually achieved its goal of testing the waters, and it is already a profit as long as it still exists. As long as the timing is right, he can even let the Holy Infant Society cooperate directly with the official to gain more support.
However, the time is not yet ripe, so the group that protects the Holy Infant Society should not have any major interests involved with the official authorities. It is best if the family has the final say, and the group should not be too strong.
After finding some more information about this group, Bai Shihang felt that Huajin Group was suitable. So he decided to contact them.
Two days later.
At two o'clock in the morning, Nobuo Hirosue arrived at the company parking lot.
He has maintained this schedule for the past few days, just to wait for the contact that might come. If he is tired, he will sleep in the office for a while and leave work when the time comes.
Today, he waited for it.
He came to the car, but the driver did not come out to open the door to greet him as usual. Instead, he lay on the steering wheel as if he had fallen asleep.
The rear window is one-way, so you can't see what's inside from outside the car.
Nobuo Hirosue tried to calm himself down, reached out to open the back door, and a stranger appeared before him. He looked ordinary and was wearing an ill-fitting office shirt.
"Are you 'the protector'?" He had seen the president's photo, and this person was very different from him in both figure and appearance, so he thought of another person whose name he only knew but whose appearance he didn't know.
"It seems you know me." The Ninth Protector said with interest. The Nobuo Hirosue in front of him was not much different from the appearance photos found on the Internet. He was a typical elderly executive - meticulously dressed, a hairstyle that he tried hard to maintain, and a short beard.
He doesn't look like he's seriously ill at all.
Nobuo Hirosue nodded, got into the car and closed the door.
"In order to get in touch with the Holy Infant Society, I had to use a little trick." Hirosue Nobuo said openly and frankly.
The Ninth Protector actually didn't realize that this was their invitation to contact him. After all, the news was not very eye-catching. If he hadn't had the habit of reading all the top 20 hot topics, he probably wouldn't have paid attention to it. At the same time, he became more interested in the person in front of him. Since the other party did this, he must have some confidence. I don't know how he deduced it from.
"That's a very clever idea." The Ninth Guardian nodded. "Then how much do you know about the Holy Infant Society?"
"The punishment from heaven is coming. Only by believing in the Holy Infant can one obtain salvation and enjoy the redistribution on earth after the punishment from heaven." Hirosue Nobuo blurted out. He had been reading this information over and over again in the past few days. He did not memorize it deliberately, but he had already memorized it.
"Then are you willing to join the Holy Infant Society?" The Ninth Protector asked directly.
"My son and I are willing to join." Nobuo Hirosue did not hesitate and even brought his son along, as if he was willing to dedicate the rest of his life and descendants to the company.
"Yes." The Ninth Protector did not ask if it was okay, but instead asked, "Who came up with this contact information?"
Hirosue Nobuo finally hesitated and said, "My granddaughter."
The Ninth Guardian opened the car door and handed him a note from his pocket: "Tomorrow, go to this nursing home to pick this person up and arrange a safe place for him."
Hirosue Nobuo read it several times, memorized it in his mind, and crumpled the paper into a ball: "Understood, Lord Protector."
The nine guardians left.
Nobuo Hirosue glanced at the still unconscious driver, got out of the car and made a phone call.
Soon, someone came over, strangled the driver with wire, put him in the back seat, and drove away.
In a few days, his family will receive a large compensation as compensation for the driver who bravely fought against robbers to protect the company's property but eventually died.
The next day, Hirosue Hideyasu drove a business car to the hotel under the group at noon. It seemed like just an ordinary inspection. No one noticed that he, who had disguised his appearance, drove a prepared car and came to an unknown nursing home.
Using the excuse of a family member's birthday, he took an old man named Goro Furui away.
It has to be said that Nakai Shun felt that he made the right decision to go to South Korea for further studies. His makeup skills were an accompanying training program and have been used many times so far.
"Since you have passed the test of the guardian, we must hold the initiation ceremony as soon as possible." Nakai Hayabusa had received the notice from Shiraishi Kou yesterday. He also hoped to get rid of living in a nursing home as soon as possible. Every day, he not only had to disguise his appearance, but also his personality, and communicate with a bunch of old guys about boring things. It would be better to deal with the investigation team again.
Ahem, after feeling the beauty of power, his way of thinking was gradually led astray.
However, the last incident still taught him a lesson. He was not aware of many of the methods used by the investigation team. If he was surrounded again, he could not be sure that he would be able to escape.
"President, I wonder what we need to prepare in advance for the initiation ceremony?" Hirosue Hideyasu asked cautiously.
"Everything should be kept simple now. You don't need to prepare too many things. They are just ordinary items. However, your first priority now is to protect all the members of the club without exposing yourself."
"Yes, we will definitely complete the membership mission perfectly."
