Chapter 512 - THE YAKUZA



After the conversation, Kaito walked around the building and found that the situation was as the drunk man said. The building was in a mess. Things seemed to have been abandoned in a hurry, and a lot of offices and hallways looked like they were scenes of fights. 

The anger in his heart continued swelling. Despite his intentions to close down the Shadow Brotherhood, he never wanted things to come to this ugly point. He hoped that his mercenaries would part in peace and find fulfilment elsewhere. 

Now, it seemed like there was no hope. 

Except for the few people who remained in the building, it was unlikely that he would find the whereabouts of the rest without a search. He could call them all back with his authority, but he was not ready to make the decision yet. 

If he called them for a meeting, he did not know what he would say. Would he express his anger and disappointment at their destructive behaviours? Would he tell them calmly that the Shadow Brotherhood was no more because he was no longer interested in being an assassin? 

He also did not have a plan for helping those who were lost like that drunk man. While they were grownups with their own minds, he felt a little responsible towards them because they were his subordinates. 

He could not leave them in a lurch. 

Until he figured out what to do with the remnants, he would just let the situation marinate. For now, he needed to deal with Ayumi. He took out his phone and dialled the number of one of his people in the city. 

"Where is she?" He asked coldly. 

Kaito did not need to explain who he was talking about. With his deep anger, the person on the other end knew that his boss was looking for Ayumi. He knew the situation in the Shadow Brotherhood because he was responsible for keeping an eye on things in the city. 

"I will send you the location right away." The man replied. 

Kaito ended the call and walked to his car. Just as he started it, his phone pinged, and he found that his subordinate had sent a location pin. He looked at it before putting the device away. He drove out with fierce fury. 

The vehicle headed to another side of the city like a sleek bullet. The specific area was in the downtown area, and it was quite popular for those looking for fun and excitement. However, the members of the Shadow Brotherhood avoided it because it was associated with organised crime groups. 

Organised crime groups like the yakuza were different from mercenaries, and they played by different rules. It was not a wise thing for anyone to cross them because of the unique principles and practices related to their members. 

Kaito had come into contact with some of the local yakuza when they wanted to hire him for a job. However, after some investigating, he found some problems related to the work. One of the leaders of the individual families was trying to control a larger zone, and he thought the best approach was to take out a rival leader. 

Being involved in the infighting of mafia-type families never ended well for anyone. Therefore, he turned them down and never took up a job from them. He essentially blacklisted them so that he would not have to be embroiled in a feud.

While the two sides were active in the underworld, the situations were different. He had always had a clear mind when carrying out his official tasks, and he never liked being involved in overly crooked things. Moreover, he did not want a friendship with unpredictable groups like the yakuza, regardless of their power. 

He was a little surprised that Ayumi, the current albeit lacking leader of the Shadow Brotherhood, would venture into the yakuza territory. After he made it clear that he did not want anything to do with their world, the relationship became a little tense. 

No one caused trouble for the other party, but they were not friendly. Ayumi moving to the yakuza territory in that part of town meant that she was on good terms with someone in the crime family. However, he did not jump to conclusions. He wanted to see the situation with his eyes. 

Finally, his car pulled up outside a high-rise hotel with a rooftop nightclub called Crown. Ayumi was in the nightclub and often came there during the evenings over the past month. He looked at the building for a moment through the windshield of his car before stepping out into the parking lot. 

His eyes swept over the property with keen eyes before he walked in. He could see several security cameras, and he noticed a lot of people watching from the shadows. It was likely that the hotel was a major base for someone in the underworld.

He did not care about the observation. He wanted to see Ayumi and understand her thought processes before deciding how to deal with her and the Shadow Brotherhood. 

Although as things stood, he could not muster even a shred of good feelings towards the woman.

Once he entered the hotel, he got a warm welcome from the customer service staff. They explained that the nightclub was a popular haunt, so there were some restrictions on entry. Since he was not a hotel guest, he could not get into the club directly. 

The hotel staff were mostly ordinary people, but they did not judge and act rashly. They were not familiar with Kaito, but they were respectful, perhaps because they perceived him as a rich second-generation young master. 

Therefore, once he paid the cover charge for the club, he was able to go to the rooftop club. 

When he entered, he found Ayumi right away. It was not hard because she was not trying to conceal herself. She was stretched out comfortably on a seat in the best VIP section of the club. She was looking at the people dancing with an apathetic dullness in her eyes while sipping on an amber-coloured liquid. 

If one did not know better, they might assume that she owned the place and was evaluating her asset.
