Chapter 63: Drunken
"President Suzuki, haha, long time no see."
"President Fujiwara, thank you for coming. Please, take a seat in the front. You must have a couple of drinks tonight."
Today, the largest hall of a luxury hotel in Fukushima Prefecture was contracted as the venue for the engagement ceremony of the eldest son of the Suzuki family.
Many local and foreign partners came to participate in this invitation.
As the time approached, Mitsuhiko Suzuki looked at his watch and found that an important guest had not arrived yet.
"Mitsuhiko, come up quickly, are all the guests here?" his wife came over and asked.
"Nicholas hasn't arrived yet." Suzuki took out his phone and dialed, but no one answered.
"That foreigner from Tepco? Then we won't wait for him. We can't postpone the banquet just because of him." Mrs. Suzuki said unhappily.
Suzuki Mitsuhiko didn't say anything. He looked at the door again and confirmed that the other party had not arrived yet, so he had to go back and sit down.
The engagement ceremony was held on time. With people's blessings, the newlyweds exchanged engagement rings and greeted this moment with the sweetest smiles.
"Kiss me! Kiss me!"
The man and woman’s friends started to make a fuss.
The bride-to-be on the stage was reserved for a moment, but they finally kissed.
"Woo-ah!" Ghostly howls were heard from the audience.
Mitsuhiko Suzuki and his wife watched this scene with a smile. They turned back inadvertently and found that the door had been closed at some point.
There was clearly a waiter standing there watching, waiting for the ceremony to end and for the guests to be seated.
But he didn't pay much attention to it until someone suddenly appeared in front of him and raised his glass to toast him.
"Congratulations, Mr. Suzuki."
"Haha, thank-ah!"
Suzuki Mitsuhiko subconsciously looked over with a smile, ready to respond with the polite words he had said countless times.
But when he turned around, he saw a face that looked like an evil spirit standing less than thirty centimeters away from him. He was so frightened that his body shuddered, goose bumps appeared on his body, his waist and legs became weak, and he fell straight off the chair to the ground.
"You, you are - Ito Seiji!" Suzuki's horrified scream drowned out the noise of the crowd. Everyone looked at the fallen Suzuki, wondering what he was shouting. Only Mrs. Suzuki broke through the ability of [Anonymity] and followed her husband's gaze, looking at Ito in shock.
"It seems you know me too, Mr. Suzuki."
Ito's words passed by lightly.
"Then you don't have to introduce yourself."
In an instant, with him as the center, a strong and fierce fire tornado quickly covered a large amount of combustible materials in the area.
Many people were pushed aside by the heat wave and bumped into various scene arrangements.
The curtains, foam boards and wooden frames were ignited, forming a raging fire that surrounded the guests.
"Ahh! It's on fire!"
"Ahem, help!"
At the engagement scene, which was engulfed in flames, people were avoiding the fire like blind flies, trying to find a way out.
The fire spray above our heads seemed to be stuck with something. Only a few of them could be successfully activated, which was a drop in the bucket.
After finally gathering around the door, they discovered that they couldn't push it open, as if it was locked from the outside. After listening to the noises and looking at the gaps, they realized that the door was tied with a large iron chain, and it took some time to break the door handle.
"Help! Let us out!"
"Window, go to the window!"
As the fire and smoke grew, they couldn't wait that long and started jumping out of the windows.
This place is only three floors above the ground, so the chances of survival are still very high.
However, the Suzuki family lost consciousness early under Ito's targeting. When Suzuki Mitsuhiko slowly woke up, he found that his hands and feet had been tied, his mouth was sealed, and he was put in the car.
It was his wife's car, a business nanny car.
Suzuki drowsily recalled everything that had happened. Everything happened so suddenly and so bizarrely like a dream, making it difficult for him to accept the reality all of a sudden.
All I know is that this was done by the internationally wanted criminal Makoto Ito, but as for why he wanted to target me, I have no idea.
He also found his wife and younger brother in the car, both still in a coma. There were other people in the back seat, but he couldn't see who they were. He probably guessed that they were his eldest son and daughter-in-law.
I looked towards the driver's seat with difficulty, and could only see a hand covered with mottled scars through the intermittent street lights.
Not long after, the car stopped.
Ito got out of the car, dragged everyone in the back seat out, and threw them to the ground. No matter whether they were awake or not, they were all woken up now.
With their hands and feet tied, they were like maggots. They could only lie on the concrete floor and try hard to make humming sounds, as if trying to awaken the conscience of their kidnappers.
Suzuki Mitsuhiko first looked at everyone, his wife, eldest son, daughter-in-law, and his younger brother who held an official position.
This is the worst situation, all the core members of the family have been arrested.
His heart slowly sank, and in order to obtain more information, he began to look around. The most eye-catching thing was the giant white tank buildings in front of him, standing side by side in a continuous line.
Suzuki suddenly had an idea and he remembered that this was the Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant!
He looked at his younger brother again, and the latter also turned his head to look at him.
Obviously my brother also knew where this was.
Could it be that the person he met was an extreme environmentalist? But the nuclear leak and even the drainage plan had nothing to do with the Suzuki family.
If he was killed because of this, it would be too unfair.
And why is it so quiet here today? Didn’t I hear that Tokyo Electric Power Company recruited a large number of outsourced foreign employees?
While they were daydreaming, Ito Makoto had just used a forklift to bring two blue buckets over one meter high and placed them less than two meters in front of them.
Then he got out of the car and tore off the sealants on their mouths one by one.
"Mr. Ito! Whatever you want, let us go and I can give it to you!" Suzuki Mitsuhiko ignored the pain and said impatiently the moment the sealing glue was torn off.
Ito ignored him and continued to tear off the sealing tape of other people.
"Ahem, huh, yes, Mr. Ito, even if you want to go abroad, we can do our best to help you. You don't have to go to this extent." Suzuki's younger brother also said.
The newlyweds looked at each other, shut their mouths and said nothing, leaving the scene to their father and uncle.
In fact, the current wanted warrant for Ito Seiji does not reveal the fact that he is the Tokyo Fire Giant, but only treats him as an accomplice of a terrorist.
The Suzuki family naturally knew more than ordinary people. Countless people had died in the opponent's flames. They must not use threats, as that would only anger him.
In the dim light, Ito casually opened the lid of one of the blue buckets and then slammed it over.
With a thud, the full bucket of water splashed on their clothes and faces, but that was nothing. What was heartbreaking was that, accompanied by a strong stench, a bloated corpse was thrown in front of them, and almost had close contact with Suzuki's daughter-in-law.
"Ahhhhh!!"
The daughter-in-law was so frightened that she screamed and cried, twisting her body, trying to get away from the unrecognizable corpse.
Although Suzuki was also frightened, he had experienced a lot after all, so he was able to keep his mind steady and even identify who the body belonged to.
Soon, he determined from the foreigner's face and watch that this was Nicholas, one of the senior executives of Tokyo Electric Power Company who was currently in charge of the work of the Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.
No wonder I couldn’t attend the banquet today. It turned out I was full from drinking too much water.
"He said the treated water wouldn't kill people, but he died." Ito looked at the others expressionlessly.
Everyone is in tears. The way you drink water by stuffing people into buckets can kill people with mineral water!
