"Please ...... please forgive this gentleman, he hasn't done anything these days he's been coming to the store, he's just flipping through comics and being polite to me! I ...... I didn't expect it to be like this, this gentleman really ...... just came here to sit down, please give him a chance!" True trembled and bowed deeply.

Sakura gave her a cold look. She had expected this, and it was a small punishment to scare True a little, that's not how the hotline of this family works.

"Although there is a plea from the subject, it can not be so easily dismissed." Sakura threw the short knife on the table, "Seeing as you are so young, cut your finger to thank you. As for the real also will have punishment, exaggerate on the phone."

"Come sit in a toy store and have to cut your finger? Then what Lu Mingfei has done adds up to long overdue harakiri, right?" Caesar was surprised, too.

"Why should I cut my belly?" Lu Mingfei was also shocked.

"You do all the nerdy things and download pirated comics."

"If you don't give a little face to the street punks, they won't know how to respect the family. One day some of them will rise step by step to the position of the club leader, then they will face the bloody and cruel side of the underworld, scare them before it is too late so that they have some fear not to abuse violence, is for their future good. Just like when you were a child, your mother taught you that doing bad things will be caught by the police and put in jail." Sakura whispered, in the Chinese language that neither Shin nor Nodasu understood.

Lu Mingfei looked at the side of Sakura's face in awe, and only then did he realize that there was some tenderness in the girl's sternness. From the time he knew that the Yakuza family was a yakuza, Lu Mingfei had always been somewhat in awe of Sakura, a ninja-trained woman in the yakuza, always wearing inconspicuous black suits to wrap herself up tightly, like a black poisonous flower. But these words are like a sister, let him remember that Noor later the price of the suit ironed to give him, Lu Mingfei looked at the price tag a little afraid to accept that such expensive clothes I can not wear, Noor said casually that every boy will one day wear valuable formal wear doing important things, early practice to prepare for that day is always good.

I think the strict family rules of the Serpentine family are not without their gentle side.

"Sakura is so gentle!" Lu Mingfei exclaimed, almost wanting to applaud.

Rarely, did Sakura's bloodless face shows an embarrassed look. She had to digress, "Please cooperate with all the distinguished guests, you now look as if you are watching a comedy."

The Caesar panel suddenly became serious, and blackness rose like an evil dragon. Caesar smiled coldly and squeezed his bones to click, Chu Zhang's eyes were like hungry wolves about to eat people, really regretted, compared to these real gangsters Nodasu was just a high school student hanging around on the street, she was the one who led the wolf into the house. More frightening than Caesar and Chu Zhang is Lu Mingfei ...... Although I do not know why this home cadre speaks Chinese, that momentary vacant momentary cheap momentary fierce gaze is called from the bottom of the heart fear, must be a nervous beast.

Noda Shou stared at the blade of the short knife green, this is a real weapon used to kill people, not the kind of street gang in the hands of the toys thrown around, its vicious blood groove is designed to quickly bleed from the enemy's body so that the enemy lost the strength to fight to the death, and the slightly curved blade is to cut into the enemy's body when not stuck in the bone ... ... ...This was the first time Nodasu had faced a real murder weapon, and he breathed in the sinister scent of it. He realized his naivete... No wonder the men of Kabukicho are reluctant to mention the cadres of the house... If the men of Kabukicho are proud beasts then the cadres of the house are merciless gods of death!

Sakura saw big drops of cold sweat falling from the corners of Nodasu's forehead while Makoto was helplessly plunged into a chair clutching a tea tray and shivering, she felt that the intimidation had done its job and was ready to call it quits, after all, it was just two children of eighteen.

"It's all my fault! It has nothing to do with Miss Makoto!" Noda snapped his head up and yelled, "I was the one who demanded protection money, and I did say the rates were going up! Miss Makoto just said what I said as is! I'm willing to ...... thank the Hongs!"

This time it was the turn of the cadres of the Honghu family to be surprised, both the raging foreign mercenary Caesar and the bloodthirsty cold swordsman Chu Zhang subconsciously looked at Sakura. Noda knelt on the ground, pulled out a white handkerchief from his pocket and fiercely wrapped it around the pinky finger of his left hand, and slowly grabbed the short sword on the table. The future third generation of the Noda group, the eighteen-year-old Nodasu decided to use a part of his body to give thanks to the family, his brow was written with determination and pain, his eyebrows tightened and the corners of his eyes twitched, his lips were tightly pursed.

"Hey hey, think of something." Lu Mingfei said in Chinese, "I see this kid is very frothy, this is going to be a real cut."

But Sakura didn't say anything, just coldly watched Nodasu's every move. Cutting fingers is highly ritualistic in the yakuza, and Nodasu had a few things to do before cutting down.

"I cut my fingers voluntarily to thank the family, no one forced me, I knew I had violated the family rules and was willingly punished!" Noda said loudly with his head held high.

"Even if you cut your finger, the traces of your fault are still there, and you are still a wrongdoer in the eyes of the family," Sakura said coldly, "Do you understand?"

"Yes! Men live in this world to make mistakes is nothing! The key is to take responsibility! I can still hold a bat if I've lost one of my tail fingers, and a man who holds a bat can stand up straight in the streets of Kabukicho!" Noda looked resolute.

"Stand up straight in the streets of Kabukicho? It's hard to say whether a man who has made mistakes can still be the third generation of the Noda group."

Nodasu's cheek muscles twitched slightly: "A man who is afraid to admit his mistakes is even less worthy of becoming the third generation of the Noda group!"

"You said Miss Makoto did not exaggerate it was you who threatened her with a protection fee increase?"
