Fujibe Tatsuno leaped and jumped down. The loud thud made Geng Yi's heart sink to the bottom under the bridge.

She quickly ran to the balcony and looked down. She saw Tengbian Daye lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, his bright red blood flowing all over the place. It was so glaring.

She shouted, "Fujibe-kun!" and then fainted!

Today, dozens of successful people like Yamaguchi Kurino and Fujibe Tatsuno have chosen to end their lives. They could not bear the fact that the business empire they had built with countless efforts was lost overnight, and they were even heavily in debt. What's worse, they will be severely punished by the law!

They are all successful entrepreneurs, leaders from prominent families, such as Koizumi Muyu, Harano Tatsumi, Takahashi Zhenmei, and many more!

Then some students may ask, why do they all use place names as surnames?

I read through countless books and finally saw the record in an ancient book called Today's Something.

It turns out that over 180 years ago in Japan, during the Warring States Period, eight nations were at war! Two of them, among them, began to fight over the ownership of a river. By the end, the entire nation's men were nearly wiped out. It was more like a fight between two villages than a war between two nations.

The king came up with a plan: all women of childbearing age were forbidden to wear cumbersome clothes. Instead, they were required to wear a blanket and a pillow and go out to look for men, as some men had gone into hiding to avoid the war.

The king said, so you must find them, and once you find them, no matter where they are, you must execute them on the spot.

All the girls, shine for our country and our nation. It's time to show your charm!

The girls were like chickens with blood pumped up, running around everywhere, in the fields, at the foot of the mountain, by the small springs, by the vines, finding one man after another who was fleeing the war...

The king watched the girls go off to war, his heart overwhelmed with emotions, tears streaming down his face. He hummed an old ballad: "To fulfill that dream, you gambled your lifelong love, wrapped in blankets and carrying pillows..." Later, the girls finally completed the task given by the king and gave birth to children.

But a new problem arises: the child is born, but their father's surname is unknown. What should we do? The child cannot be without a surname, right?

A clever woman said, "There's a solution. Even though we don't know the children's father's surname, we can just give them the surname of the place where the task was completed!" Everyone agreed, "Hmm!" This was a good idea, and they all agreed.

So there are surnames containing place names, such as Yamashita, Qiaobian, Yamaguchi, Fujibe, Watanabe, and the one I admire most is the ancestor of the surname Inoue. It is extremely difficult!

Okay, the origin of Japanese surnames and the origin of kimono have been explained clearly. Students, please take notes, as they will be tested in this final exam.

Back to the point, Japan was severely damaged this time. A large number of social elites died, and a large amount of gold, jewelry, and foreign exchange were lost. Industrial machinery and lathes were all lost. Most importantly, many warships, submarines, and aircraft were lost.

The trouble is, the thieves haven't been found yet! People are complaining, factories can't operate, and banks can't provide funds. Everything has left Japan's leadership helpless.

The United States has been furious, demanding that Japan must find the thief, otherwise it will have to compensate the United States double for its losses!
