Getting the best from Tarkov

After taking photos of the important information in the file with his mobile phone, Liao Fan put the file back into the briefcase.

He turned his head and looked at Tang Yunong next door. She was almost drowsy at this moment, but he himself was exceptionally energetic.

According to Tang Yunong, this was just an ordinary banquet, and the other party's family should be very friendly to Chinese people, but why is this different from the information he found?

First of all, there is the bride's father, Sato Ryohei. He was actually qualified to go further and even join the cabinet, but a plan he had actively participated in almost ruined his political career.

That was to build a nuclear wastewater treatment plant in Suttsu Town, but it was boycotted by a large number of people and eventually came to nothing, or it was dumped into the sea in a fit of anger.

When something goes wrong, someone has to take the blame. The bride's father, Ryohei Sato, is one of the main scapegoats in this incident.

As a local official who does not care about the lives and safety of the people in his hometown, one can imagine how unscrupulous he can be in order to climb up.

In addition, the other person that Liao Fan cares about the most is his "great-grandfather" named Sato Shigeru. According to intelligence, this man once served in the 23rd Infantry Company of the 6th Division of the Kwantung Army.

I think everyone should know which team this is.

As for the soldiers serving in this unit, even the lowest-ranking lieutenants or even non-commissioned officers are probably people who have been deeply brainwashed by militarism, not to mention the ordinary soldiers whose hands are stained with blood.

Even if he died in the end, his extreme thoughts would surely have some influence and be inherited by his descendants.

For example, those well-known right-wing extremists in Japan exposed in today's society, three generations ago, are more or less related to that war.

On the contrary, most of the former civilians later became anti-war activists.

As a guest of this banquet, given the family's background and composition, it was hard for Liao Fan not to doubt that he and Tang Yunong would have a safe trip.

Fortunately, I was prepared when I came here. Not only did I bring conventional defensive weapons like the Glock 17, I also brought two 200g TNT gunpowder bricks.

"What are you thinking about?"

Just when Liao Fan was wondering whether this trip would be dangerous, a pleasant female voice suddenly came to his ears.

When I tilted my head, I saw a pair of big, watery eyes right in front of me.

Liao Fan was suddenly startled by such a pair of big eyes. He subconsciously shrank his neck and then saw who it was.

This is a very petite and cute girl, who is definitely not 20 years old. The clarity and agility in her eyes reveal the innocent character of her owner.

After seeing the face clearly, Liao Fan's eyes involuntarily began to look down along the neck.

Since Liao Fan was in a half-lying position at this time, the girl, although very petite, should... maybe... seemed... like an adult, so she naturally bent over and leaned close to Liao Fan.

As a result, Liao Fan looked down like this, Wuhu... This person is definitely an adult, and why is he so white!

As if sensing Liao Fan's gaze, the girl's face turned red, and she subconsciously covered her chest with her hands, then straightened up and took a step back without leaving a trace.

Liao Fan also knew that he was being rude, so he smiled sheepishly to hide his embarrassment: "Hello, what can I do for you?"

Hearing Liao Fan's words, the girl was stunned for a moment, then said in a somewhat obedient tone: "Hello, my name is Okatani Aoi. I just overheard you chatting with your friends. Are you going on a trip to Hokkaido?"

"Yes, my name is Liao Fan, I'm Chinese. What can I do for you?"

"Look, I'm an exchange student from Shanghai Normal University, and I'm also going to Hokkaido. Can we go together?"

"Hmm? I don't understand. We don't seem to know each other. Besides, I have companions. I don't understand why you want to go with us?"

"Hehe, if I'm not mistaken, you and your friends are going to attend Sister Xingzi's wedding."

Hearing the girl's words, Liao Fan's heart immediately went on alert. It was not because he was too sensitive, but because he had been thinking about some very dangerous things in his heart just now.

Seeing Liao Fan's expression suddenly become very alert, Okatani Aoi immediately realized that she had been a bit abrupt and hurriedly explained, "I'm sorry, please don't misunderstand me. I didn't mean to spy on you. I just accidentally heard the name of my childhood playmate, so I paid a little more attention."

"A childhood playmate?"

“Yes, our Okaya family and the Sato family have been family friends since our great-grandfather, and even before that.

This friendship has continued to our generation. I and Sato Anko, whom you just mentioned to your friend, grew up together as playmates, and my brother and she are childhood sweethearts~"

"How can you be sure that the Sato Anko you know is the same person I'm talking about?

I have the impression that Sato is a very common surname in Japan, so there should be quite a few people with the same name."

"That's right, but what a coincidence, I came back to China just to attend Sister Xingzi's wedding.

You just mentioned that you were attending a wedding, so I think the person you are talking about is the same person I know."

After listening to Okatani Aoi's explanation, Liao Fan did not let down his guard, but he did not show any hostility either. He just asked back.

"So what? We just met today. Why would you want to go with us instead of looking for your own friends?"

After hearing what Liao Fan said, Okatani Aoi seemed to have something to hide and didn't say anything for a long time.

Just when Liao Fan felt a little bored and was about to go back to thinking about what had just been interrupted, he heard the girl next to him continue: "It's like this, I came to China as an exchange student, not just to deal with it casually.

I plan to work in China after graduation, so I need to expand my network in advance. After all, as a Japanese, it is inherently difficult for me to make friends in your country."

After hearing what the girl said, Liao Fan believed in his heart that this was not regional discrimination or confrontation, but the resistance that was ingrained in the Chinese people.

However, Liao Fan now has a rough idea of ​​what is going on.

I guess she heard something when I was chatting with Tang Yunong just now, such as his net worth of hundreds of millions.

This cannot be blamed on Liao Fan's loss of money. I really didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.

However, those who can sit in first class should not have easy tasks. After all, it is only a flight from China to Japan, and the total flight time is only a few hours.

Seeing that Liao Fan was still indifferent, Okatani Aoi once again made what she thought was a very attractive proposal: "You don't need to pay for any expenses for this trip.

I can also serve as an interpreter for you and your friends. I am familiar with both Hokkaido and Tokyo. I spent half of my childhood in Tokyo.

You are still too young. Trying to get close to others like this will not win you friendship.

Ordinary people would just find it troublesome, and some people with dirty minds would take the opportunity to take advantage, after all, the scale is really grand.

"Okaya さん, private Japanese language ではないと思いますか. (Miss Okaya, do you think my Japanese is not standard?)"

After hearing Liao Fan's answer, Okatani Aoi was stunned at first, and then she couldn't help feeling frustrated. Is it still not working?

Why is it that during this time in China, apart from those who coveted my body, no Chinese person wanted to be friends with me?

This is true for both male and female students, even if they have tried their best to please the other party.

Seeing the girl return to her seat with a depressed look on her face, Liao Fan couldn't help but change his expression. It seemed that this woman was not completely useless.

"Ms. Okatani, you said you and Ms. Sato Anko were childhood friends. Could you tell me about the Sato family? I'm quite interested in my friend's future family."

Hearing Liao Fan talking to her again, Okatani Aoi seemed to be greatly encouraged and immediately cheered up and said, "Mr. Liao Fan, what do you want to know?"

"Well, I don't know either. After all, I don't know some of your traditions and customs. Even my Japanese was learned by watching videos and recordings, and I haven't practiced speaking with other people."

"Wow, Liao Fanjun, you're amazing! Do you know how standard your spoken English is? If I were you, I'd probably mistake you for a Tokyo native.

As for the customs you mentioned, I actually think there is no obvious difference from China. As for the traditions, I really can't explain them to you clearly in a sentence or two.

But you must be a friend of the groom."

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Then you don't have to worry. This banquet won't embarrass you. You just need to enjoy the food."

"Really? That's fine. I don't want to ruin my friend's wedding because of my ignorance."

"Liao Fanjun, don't worry, it won't happen. But... I'm telling you in secret, don't show any strangeness when the time comes."

"Oh? What do you want to say?"

"It's like this. Although my great-grandfather and Sister Xingzi's great-grandfather were comrades-in-arms, they seem to have many different ideas. So although our two families have always been old friends, we are not actually as close as other families with old friends.

I don't know the details, but when you get to Hokkaido, I can introduce you to my brother, who has been doing business with the Chinese."

After listening to what Aoi Okatani said, Liao Fan felt more and more that something unusual was happening here.

However, seeing the other party's evasive look, I probably didn't know how to start the conversation. Since the other party said he wanted to introduce my brother to me, then let's get to know each other.

As for your grandfather who was in the Kwantung Army, I can only say that he saved you and your sister in peacetime.

Next, Liao Fan and Okatani Aoi talked about some other topics, such as her alma mater, some attractions or interesting things in Tokyo.

Through communication, Liao Fan also let down his guard against him.

This is just a little girl with little social experience.

The reason why he came over so rashly was just as I guessed, he thought I was some hidden boss, and the other party's excessive initiative was not intentional.

She told me that she had never made any friends at Huaguo University, but there were many boys around her who were courting her, and she didn't know how to refuse, so her reputation gradually became polarized.

The boys who pursue her think she is gentle and pretty, but many girls think she is pretentious, fake and artificial.

Liao Fan guessed that it was because this girl was too enthusiastic that many loser men misunderstood her. And because of her excessive enthusiasm, no one dared to make friends with her.

After all, if someone rushes in like this from the start, anyone would be worried.

Coupled with her incredible figure and legitimate loli face, as well as her inability to refuse the licking dogs that surround her, she has become a complete green tea in the girl circle.

It would be strange if you could make friends after all this trouble.

According to her description, her brother, Masao Okatani, is engaged in import and export trade and is also a collector, a passion that has been passed down from generation to generation.

Her family is very well off, which is why she was able to fly first class when she returned home. You know, first class on such international flights is not cheap.

As for Liao Fan... who would refuse a loli with breasts almost as big as her head? It's not like he has anything to lose.

Unknowingly, time passed slowly as the two of them whispered to each other. When they got off the plane, Liao Fan woke up Tang Yunong, took the hand of the chairman who was still a little dazed, and followed the others into the shuttle bus.

During this period, Okatani Aoi followed behind him like a good girl, very quietly, and took the initiative to do some trivial things within her ability.

This made Liao Fan feel more deeply the obedience deeply embedded in the bones of Japanese women.

However, the only thing that was a bit distressing was that along the way, Liao Fan had to endure Tang Yunong's teasing gaze, as if he was a wretched uncle who was deceiving an ignorant girl.

But Liao Fan was also wronged. Although the girl looked like a loli, she was a serious college student.

Legal loli is so unreasonable.

It was not until he checked into the hotel he had booked in advance that Liao Fan was able to officially escape the siege of the two women.

Tang Yunong naturally had to stay in a room of her own, and in order to facilitate Liao Fan and the others' schedule, Okatani Aoi stayed directly in the hotel instead of going home directly.

This actually made Liao Fan feel a little embarrassed, but the girl's words made Liao Fan speechless.

"It's okay. My brother gave me a lot of pocket money, and I still have a lot left this time. I'll go shopping with Yunong-chan tomorrow. I'm very familiar with this place."

That’s right, just on the way back, the two girls became familiar with each other, calling each other Yunong-chan and Kui-chan, which gave Liao Fan goosebumps.

However, this saved Liao Fan a lot of trouble. He was originally worried about Tang Yunong's safety.

Now that I have a local as my guide, I can have a good rest. After all, I don’t know what I will encounter on this trip to Hokkaido.
