Chapter 1203: Don’t Leave
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“That’s impossible!”
Shoko Nakajima stood up and explained,
“Once he’s in a hypnotic state, everything he says will be true. There’s no way he’s lying.”
Kenji Takayama frowned slightly. “But just now, I got someone to check the hotel. He searched every corner of the room, but he didn’t find the black box. So there must be a mistake here. I need you to hypnotize him again. You’re not allowed to make another mistake.”
“That’s impossible.” Shoko Nakajima said.
“If I want to hypnotize him again, I have to wake him up. I have to do it when he’s awake, but he won’t give me another chance, so 1 can’t do a second hypnosis. I can only wait for another opportunity to do this.”
“When will he be leaving? Have you found out about this?” asked Kenji Takayama in a low voice.
“The day after tomorrow.”
“Are you confident that you can gain his trust again within these two days and perform a second hypnosis?”
“No.” Shoko Nakajima said with certainty.
“He has the strongest willpower of anyone I’ve ever met. He won’t be swayed by beauty. He is not attracted to me. Unless a miracle happens, it’ll be difficult to hypnotize him a second time.”
Kenji Takayama’s expression changed. He was caught in a dilemma.
From the looks of it, it was impossible for Shoko Nakajima to enchant Lin Yi.
The chance of a second hypnosis was also very slim, so there were not many opportunities left for him. He could only use unconventional methods.
“You can leave first. I’ll handle this matter.”
Shoko Nakajima’s body trembled. She had already guessed what Kenji Takayama was going to do.
“Mr. Takayama, can you give me another chance? There are still two days left. Perhaps 1 can do it.”
“I don’t want to gamble on this, so you can go out for now. 1’11 handle this.”
“Got it, Mr. Takayama.”
Shoko Nakajima bowed and quietly walked out of the room.
However, the moment she closed the door, her gentle gaze landed on Lin Yi. Her eyes were complicated and conflicted.
She knew very well that after she left, the next time they met, they would be enemies.
After Shoko Nakajima left, Kenji Takayama said to his subordinates behind him.
“Bring everyone over. He’s very skilled. The three of us might be at a disadvantage here.”
“Yes, Mr. Takayama!”
To be able to become Yushi Mitsui’s bodyguard and driver, Kenji Takayama was more meticulous than most people.
He knew Lin Yi’s strength very well. Even Eliza was not his match, so he had to be more prepared.
However, after more than ten minutes, there was no movement outside at all. Takayama Kenji frowned with a hint of anger on his face.
“What the hell? Where did he go? Why haven’t they come over after such a long time? Go out and check. Tell them to get a move on!”
“Yes!”
The other subordinate bowed and replied, then turned around and walked out.
However, before he could open the door, he unexpectedly heard voices.
“Don’t look for them. They won’t be coming over any time soon.”
In an instant, Kenji Takayama and his subordinates trembled.
There were only three people in this room.
Neither of them said anything!
Then the only possibility was Lin Yi!
Kenji Takayama’s gaze landed on Lin Yi, his eyes filled with wariness and fear.
Slowly, Lin Yi sat up from the ground. He supported his head with one hand and looked at Kenji Takayama with a smile.
It was as if he was looking at a prey waiting to be slaughtered!
“How is that possible? You’ve already been hypnotized. How could you wake up?”
Although he was full of questions, Kenji Takayama subconsciously stepped back.
He knew that he had lost control of the situation in front of him.
He didn’t know what would happen next.
“How can you be so sure I was hypnotized?”
“Don’t tell me you…?!”
Takayama Kenji’s face was deathly pale, and he looked even uglier than a dead person.
“You faked all this. You weren’t hypnotized at all!”
“As expected of someone who Yushi Mitsui chose. You’re not stupid.”
“You know who 1 am?”
“I found out a long time ago.” Lin Yi smiled.
“From the moment you entered the casino, 1 could all but confirm that you were about to make a move.”
He had learned about Yushi Mitsui and Kenji Takayama’s identities from Caie Mitsui.
However, when he asked about this, Lin Yi didn’t reveal anything about the ore.
He only said that he was asking these questions because he wanted to prevent Yushi Mitsui from trying to rope him in. He never thought that he was looking to gain anything.
“In that case, there’s nothing more to say.”
Kenji Takayama tried to calm himself down. He said,
“Mr. Lin, we don’t want to hurt you. We just want the Bass ore. 1 hope you can give it to me.”
Lin Yi shrugged. “Sorry, I’m not sure what you’re talking about.”
“Mr. Lin, it’s already come to this. 1 hope you can be more honest. If 1 wasn’t completely confident, I wouldn’t have come here today.”
“Then your methods are very interesting.” Lin Yi smiled.
“Let’s not talk about the fact that that ore is not even in my hands. Even if it was, you shouldn’t have tried to get it directly from me.”
“But this thing doesn’t belong to you to begin with. We’re only taking back what belongs to us and not holding you responsible. This is a benefit we are extending you.”
“Then you can ask around and find out who this thing originally belonged to. Answer me once you find out the truth.”
“Could it be that Mr. Lin doesn’t want to cooperate?”
Kenji Takayama’s voice was very low as he looked at Lin Yi. “1 know that you have a lot of power in Huaxia, but this is Sunrise Land, not your country. If you insist on going against me, it won’t do you any good.”
“I don’t even know what you’re talking about. How can I cooperate?” Lin Yi pointed at the three of them with a teasing expression.
“Or do you think you can hurt me with just these few people?”
“1 know that you have a good relationship with Caie Mitsui. I’m sure you came forward to snatch this thing to help her.”
“But what 1 want to say is that we’re all smart people. We’re all gathered together for benefits. You don’t have to take such a big risk because of her. She’s a vicious woman. She’s not worthy of your sacrifice.”
“If you’re willing to work with us, we’ll be allies from now on. We’ll bring you greater benefits than working with Caie Mitsui. I hope you can consider it carefully, Mr. Lin.”
“Heh…”
“An alliance?”
Lin Yi sneered. “I don’t even like the Mitsui family, so why would 1 like a rogue organization like yours? You think too highly of yourself.”
“In that case, 1’11 have to apologize for troubling you.”
Kenji Takayama didn’t insist. He bowed to Lin Yi and prepared to leave.
However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw three women appear outside!
They were Qiu Yuluo, Ning Che, and Jiang Qing!
