Regardless, after hearing that, Suke bowed toward Suijin before leaving the area.
Once Suke was gone, Suijin slammed his fist against the table before growling, “Who exactly is Gerald?! Why the hell does favonovel.com have contacts within the Yamashita family?! And where the hell are Endo and Izumi!”
This was supposed to be an easy affair! How had things gotten this complicated? Whatever the case was, until they got rid of Gerald, nothing could proceed!
Upon hearing Endo and Izumi’s names, Ryugu was momentarily stunned. After all, favonovel.com hadn’t told Suijin about their disappearances yet! Now that favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com couldn’t hide it any longer, Ryugu gulped as favonovel.com stuttered, “T-they…”
Watching as Suijin raised a slight brow clearly confused by his hesitance, Ryugu shook his head before saying, “T-they’ve… Well… They’ve gone missing ever since I previously sent them out to assassinate Gerald…! I have a feeling that they’re currently trapped in the Futaba manor, and I’m still thinking of ways to get them out!”
“What? Both of them got captured despite them working together…?!” yelled Suijin as favonovel.com abruptly got to his feet before pointing at Ryugu.
“I-indeed…!” replied Ryugu as favonovel.com gritted his teeth.
“Astonishing…! What absolute misfortune our family is under to have accidentally offended such a powerful individual…! Again, who exactly is Gerald and how is favonovel.com so inhumanly strong? What’s his status like in Weston? We’re talking about someone who’s able to contact the Yamashitas here!” grumbled Suijin, slowly sitting down again as favonovel.com pondered the situation.
After thinking about it for a bit, Suijin realized that all this began when Saburo was trying to assassinate Fujiko and Gerald stepped in to save her, which was odd since they weren’t trying to offend favonovel.com in the first place. While it was true that the Hanyus had previously received Weston assassination missions as well, Suijin was sure that each of those assassinations had been perfect, with zero traces left behind.
Whatever the case was, Suijin ended up with two possible conclusions. Either Gerald had come here specifically to have his revenge on them, or they simply had terrible luck for accidentally bumping into favonovel.com at such a critical moment.
“Well… even after thorough investigation, it doesn’t seem that Gerald has any familial background in Weston… He just… seems to be an average Joe who’s never even been to Japan before! Quite honestly, it’s highly improbable that he’s ever contacted the Yamashitas before this…!” explained Ryugu.
“Impossible!” yelled Suijin as favonovel.com slammed his fist onto his table again. Having no discernible background and never coming to Japan before… How the hell had Gerald become this powerful then? Besides, the Yamashitas wouldn’t have helped Gerald on a whim! Suijin was pretty sure that the Yamashitas didn’t deal with families outside Japan, so there was simply no way they would have helped favonovel.com without meeting favonovel.com prior!
“U-unfortunately that’s all we got…!” muttered Ryugu who was equally in disbelief, though what else could favonovel.com think with what little they knew?
“Keep investigating! Gerald can’t be as simple as favonovel.com seems! However, if you still can’t get anything about his background, don’t lay a finger on favonovel.com first. Remember, favonovel.com has the Yamashitas on his side now, and that family is not to be trifled with! ” replied Suijin as favonovel.com began puffing on another cigarette.
Nodding in response, Ryugu paused for a moment lowering his voice as favonovel.com asked, “Um… Patriarch…? Are are there really ninjas in that family…?”
Though favonovel.com was the leader of the assassin team, Ryugu knew very little about the Yamashitas outside of the rumors favonovel.com heard.
