Chapter 227: The Collapse of the Hoodlum

"Impossible!!"

Kengo Bito furiously stood up from the gaming chair, he shouted at Senichi with  eyes red, "You can't possibly defeat me, I won't accept it! Let's go again!!"

"First, fulfill the bet," Senichi said calmly.

"Who cares about that! Let's have another round!!" Kengo Bito impatiently roared, "If you don't agree, then don't expect me to fulfill the bet!"

"Hey! What's wrong with you!" Sonoko showed dissatisfaction, "We agreed on it before!"

"Hah, little girl, get out of the way!" Kengo Bito said impatiently, "Who cares about you!"

Sonoko wanted to say something else but was stopped by Ayako. She looked at Sonoko, who was furious, and smiled, "Don't be angry. Trust Senichi and let him handle it."

Sonoko was taken aback by her words and then her eyes gradually narrowed, "Onee-chan~, I didn't expect that you haven't even married yet, and you've already been taken away by brother-in-law~"

"Nonsense!" Ayako was a little embarrassed and quickly covered her sister's mouth, "I just know that Senichi-kun is not the reckless type. He never does things without assurance."

"Hehe, I didn't expect my sister to know my brother-in-law so well," Sonoko teased Ayako, who seemed a bit helpless to fight back.

While the two were fooling around, Senichi had already agreed to Kengo Bito' request.

Then, when Sonoko and Ayako turned their attention back to the outcome, they saw the exact same victory screen as before.

This time, it was even faster than the last time.

Although Senichi's gaming experience couldn't compare to Kengo Bito, but his talent was simply extraordinary.

And by defeating Kengo Bito this time, Senichi's gaming skill had even improved by two points, reaching D Rank.

This was truly the skill that Senichi upgraded the fastest...

"Impossible! Let's go again!!" Kengo Bito looked at the result, which was even faster than the previous one, with a ferocious expression on his face, "Again!!"

"Hey!!" Takayasu Shimizu looked at Kengo Bito, who was in a desperate and angry state, and couldn't help but say, "You've already lost, it's time to fulfill the bet!!"

"Get lost!" Kengo Bito replied impatiently, "I don't have time to deal with you!!"

"You..." Takayasu Shimizu glared at him for acting like a sore loser, his fists clenched as if he was about to punch him in anger.

"Calm down, don't be impulsive," Senichi appeared behind him at some point, patting his shoulder, then looked at Kengo Bito and said, "I won two games against you, it's time for you to fulfill your promise."

"Hah, even if I don't fulfill it, what can you do? The initiative is in my hands," Kengo Bito taunted, "Let's see what you can do to me!"

"You scoundrel! How can you be so shameless!!" Takayasu Shimizu roared in anger.

"Hah, even if you win, so what? I won't admit it. Let your sister keep helping me pay off the debt until she dies!"

Kengo Bito looked at the furious Takayasu Shimizu and couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. He looked at Ran and the others who were angry and burst into laughter.

"Well, if you're asking for trouble, don't blame me later," Senichi said meaningfully, glancing at Kengo Bito.

"Huh?" Kengo Bito heard Senichi's words and provocatively looked at him, "I'd like to see what you can do to me!"

Upon hearing this, Senichi remained silent and took the angry Takayasu Shimizu away with a smile, saying, "Don't worry, leave the rest to me."

Then, under everyone's gaze, Senichi made two phone calls and then sat patiently with the others in a nearby beverage shop.

When everyone had finished their drinks and desserts, there was a commotion in the distance, and a group of men in all black clothes lined up and walked towards Kengo Bito.

And then...

The once arrogant Kengo Bito, wearing a servile smile, tried to please the apparent leader of the group, but in the end, he was taken away by the burly men with a sound of despair and misery.

The sound of his pitiful cries was heartbreaking and brought tears to the listeners.

Later, the man with a face full of smile greeted them, assuring Senichi that he would help Kengo Bito find a easy and legitimate job to earn money and repay his debts. These words made the corners of Senichi's mouth twitch.

"Brother-in-law, what's going on?"

"Senichi-san, they don't look like good people..."

"Senichi, is this okay..."

After they left, everyone swarmed around Senichi, wearing worried expressions.

"It's okay, it's okay. I just exchanged some greetings with friends," Senichi quickly waved his hand to explain, "I have no direct connection with them; they contacted me through some acquaintances."

Senichi briefly explained who he contacted with those two phone calls.

One call was to the Organized Crime Countermeasures Division, which is responsible for dealing with violent organizations, drugs, and firearms—three things often related to yakuza.

During his time on the Moonshadow Island, Senichi did a big favor for them, which was like selling a significant favor. Later, several cases he encountered involved drugs, and he shared some of the credit with the Organized Crime Countermeasures Division.

So, the relationship between the two sides was pretty good. When they learned that Senichi needed help, the Organized Crime Countermeasures Division, which owed him a favor, acted without hesitation.

After investigating the yakuza organization that Kengo Bito was in contact with, the members of the Organized Crime Countermeasures Division paid them a visit for routine inspection and questioning.

Well... they really just went to have a friendly chat...

Because yakuza activities are still legal in Japan, and considering the era they were in, the Anti-Violent Group Act had not yet been enacted, the relationship between the two sides is... quite delicate.

Well... those who understand, understand. In fact, many bigshots know each other.

Then, after learning about Kengo Bito' situation, including his debt situation, and putting some pressure on the organization behind him, Senichi made another phone call.

The person he contacted was the parent of one of the children he saved during "the Clown" Case, who happens to be the owner of a financial company.

Since Kengo Bito owed a large sum of money, Senichi found a big shot from a financial company and asked him to contact the financial company that Kengo Bito owed money to.

Most small financial companies are usually associated with the yakuza and rely on high-interest loans to operate.

That financial company didn't intervene earlier because they didn't want to provoke conflict with the organization behind him, and also because Kengo Bito' girlfriend had been repaying the debt, so they turned a blind eye to it.

But now, with the organization behind Kengo Bito dealt with and the opportunity to obtain some business that big shots weren't interested in, it became enticing.

Thus, with the vital support removed, Kengo Bito' situation turned into a tragedy.
