Chapter 99 Combating Corruption: Execution
This guy is clearly here to kill him!
Before Tanaka Shiyo could get up, the wooden door to the office slammed shut and fell to the ground.
Bai Yexiu walked in expressionlessly, his gaze locking onto the greasy, fat, 50-year-old man sitting on the floor. Following closely behind him into the office was Amuro Tooru, who had some scratches on his body.
“Not opening the door immediately is an even bigger offense.” Bai Yexiu walked slowly to Tanaka Shiyo, arms crossed. “What are you still sitting there for? Do you want me to help you up?”
"you……"
Terrified, Tanaka Shiyo collapsed to the ground, feeling embarrassed at being scolded by a mere teenager. After all, he was the head of the Human Resources Department! His relationship with the boss had lasted far longer than this kid's!
Perhaps it was Bai Yexiu's seemingly frail appearance that gave Tanaka Shiyo a strange sense of confidence. He stood up somewhat awkwardly, raised his head high, and demanded, "What does Jundu want? If you want to cause me trouble, you should at least have the boss's orders. You've come here so aggressively, are you trying to rebel?"
Bai Yexiu's expression remained unchanged, but a mocking look appeared in his eyes.
"First, I'm here to read out your charges." With that, Bai Yexiu gestured to Amuro Tooru to subdue Tanaka Shiyo.
Amuro Tooru understood immediately. Ignoring Tanaka Shiyo's loud shouts, he grabbed his arm and forced him to kneel on the ground facing Byakuya.
"Secondly, I now have the right to execute you, you traitor." Bai Yexiu pressed a gun against Tanaka Shiyo's forehead.
After seeing Tanaka Shiyo's terrified expression, Bai Yexiu tucked the submachine gun back into his waistband, walked slowly to his desk, and pulled out several suspicious boxes from under the desk.
"This is almost 10 billion, isn't it... You old man, you're really bold." Bai Yexiu looked at the several boxes of banknotes lined up in front of him.
"No! These are..." Tanaka Shiyo tried to argue, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Shiroya.
"Shut up, did I say anything to you?" Bai Yexiu threw a warning look at him.
"..." Tanaka Shiyo's lips drooped.
Bai Yexiu easily opened the safe and pulled out a large, thick notebook: "What... is this?"
Tanaka Shiyo's pupils slowly dilated, she sweated even more, and began to stammer, "I...I..."
Opening this notebook, one is greeted by a list of names and amounts; the notebook is already half-filled.
Tanaka Shiyo was soaked in sweat, and even Amuro Tooru frowned in disgust.
"It seems you've been itching to do this since six years ago, accepting bribes to put shady people into the organization. I was wondering why the action team couldn't kill all those useless undercover agents every day; it turns out you were secretly 'stocking up' for the organization." As he spoke, Bai Yexiu's tone became much harsher, making Tanaka Shiyo so frightened that she buried her head in her chest like a quail.
Amuro Tooru watched all this calmly, but a thin layer of sweat had already formed on his forehead.
He had never seen Jundo so imposing, almost like Gin when he was angry. Jundo usually seemed harmless; it seemed he still had a lot to learn about this kid.
Furthermore, he had an unusual level of disgust for this oily man under his command. He felt that everything his hand touched was wet, and if Jundu hadn't told him not to let go, he would have thrown this guy aside long ago.
Bai Yexiu rolled the notebook into a tube and stuffed it into his trench coat pocket before slowly walking forward. The surroundings were eerily quiet, and the sound of his thick-soled Doc Martens footsteps echoed in Tanaka Shiyo's heart, filling her with fear.
Then, the boots came into Tanaka Shiyo's view as he looked down, but before he could raise his head, he was hit by a huge pressure on his shoulder—a boot stepped on his shoulder and neck.
The next second, Tanaka Shiyo fell sideways to the ground. Amuro Tooru felt his hand suddenly go empty and was somewhat at a loss.
"Weren't you quite arrogant when you were trying to sarcastic me because of your high status? Right, esteemed 'higher-ups'?" Bai Yexiu began to speak sarcastically, his tone full of schadenfreude.
Tanaka Shiyo, relying on her position as the head of the organization's human resources department and a "high-ranking" member, targeted and looked down on Bai Yexiu, who was only a teenager. She even suggested to the boss that this so-called "adopted son" be abolished. As for the reason for targeting him, Bai Yexiu had a pretty good idea of it—the organization wouldn't give his son, who had been an outer member for more than 10 years, a code name.
It was inevitable that Tanaka Shiyo's son wouldn't get a codename. The higher-ups in the organization all said that her son had no brains, no skills, no special talents, and no talent. He was just a spoiled 20-something good-for-nothing who sponged off his parents. Even the title of peripheral member was given to him by Tanaka Shiyo through connections, not through normal selection.
In conclusion, Tanaka Shiyo was jealous.
The once high and mighty Tanaka Shiyo is now groveling at the feet of the teenager she once looked down upon.
He only told Gin, Pei Nuo, and the boss about Aptx4869; the news is still kept secret within the organization. However, Bai Yexiu's status in the organization has risen another level, and he has even obtained a privilege that only the boss possesses—executing high-ranking members.
The privileges held by the organization's secretive and special position, "Executioner," are reserved for high-ranking members, not the top brass.
Seeing that Tanaka Shiyo was too guilty to speak, Bai Yexiu smiled and continued, "Also, Pei Nuo is a very important research talent for the organization. What are you and Yamauchi Enta trying to do? Trying to harm an important researcher, even the boss will not forgive you. If Pei Nuo hadn't told me this morning, I would still be in the dark."
"Um... I can give all my possessions... uh!"
Before Tanaka Shiyo could finish speaking, Byakuya Xiu stepped on his chest.
"Bourbon, you can go out now. While you're at it, pack this thing up for the whole floor. Then wait for me outside. I'll be out in five minutes." Bai Yexiu tossed the small black box he was carrying to Amuro Tooru and waved for him to leave.
Amuro Tooru took the box and obediently went out. As soon as he closed the door, a heart-wrenching scream came from inside. It was clear that Tanaka Shiyo was enduring great torture. Although Kundo was acting impartially, he was somewhat driven by personal grudges.
However, judging from what Kundo said, Tanaka Shiyo seemed to be a high-ranking member of the organization. Amuro was quite shocked - he did not expect that Kundo would have the power to execute high-ranking members, so Kundo's position in the organization might be higher than he imagined.
Upon opening the box, Amuro Tooru realized that besides the two submachine guns, there were also a large number of miniature bombs hidden underneath. He guessed that Kimi intended to blow up this floor, but Amuro Tooru was still worried about what would happen if people on the adjacent floors were affected.
The building is very tall, with the rooftop just two floors above. However, Amuro Tooru, a public security officer, is still worried about the passersby who might be accidentally affected, even though most of the employees on this floor have already left work at this time.
After gritting his teeth and engaging in a mental struggle, Amuro Tooru still chose to plant fewer bombs to ensure that the shockwave would not spread to too many floors.
He quickly planted the bomb, and screams echoed throughout the office. Finally, just five minutes later, the sound of submachine guns continuously firing came from inside. After a few seconds of silence, Bai Yexiu emerged carrying four black suitcases and a stack of checks in his pocket; the amount was unknown. It seemed he had thoroughly ransacked Tanaka Shiyo's office.
Amuro Tooru reached out and took three of the black boxes, then took the elevator downstairs with Byakuya Shu.
Just before we arrived at the Mazda, the three tallest floors of the building behind us exploded, sending flames soaring into the sky and billowing black smoke into the dark night.
