A super great writer in the second dimension

　All the other relatives had died, except for those who had separated from the family... This old man hoped to have many children and grandchildren, and he was hoping to achieve this through his grandson.

　Touching her lower abdomen, Hisako Shinoto thought...

　This place will surely give birth to the children of the Sanzenin family in the future.

　..

255. Best buddy for life

　Hisako Shinoto doesn't know where this child will end up.

　Having lived as a servant since childhood, she had no resistance to this matter. She wanted to form a united front with Erina Nakiri and help the young lady gain the most advantageous position in this battle.

　Not only that, she also had a little expectation in her heart about what kind of child she would give birth to.

　Is it the same pinkish-purple hair as mine, or a head of dazzling blonde hair?

　……

　Jingmu Publishing House.

　Sanzenin Arashi looked at the four-story building and twitched her lips. This was too shabby. Could anyone really live in a place like this?

　The walls of the building are made of wood.

　Although cement was applied to the outside of the wood, a piece was missing from one corner, exposing the wood underneath.

　And then there are those glass windows, so vintage that you can tell at a glance... This is definitely the style of the last century.

　The style of a rural primary school in China.

　“I think 50 million is too much for this publishing house.” Sanzenin Arashi opened the car door and couldn’t help but click her tongue. “Where does Kyoki Zensui get the confidence to offer 500 million yen? But he’s right… if you can deduce the cause from the effect, there must be some trick to it.”

　Nishikawa Hayato scoffed, "I think this Kyoki Zensui is just arrogant. This price is simply outrageous. I think he's gone mad, a complete lunatic..."

　Sanzenin Arashi shrugged and walked into the publishing house.

　A strong smell of rotten wood wafted towards me.

　Sanzenin Arashi felt the temperature around her drop several degrees, and the atmosphere was somewhat eerie, like a graveyard. As soon as she entered the publishing house, she could feel an aura of death.

　“Holy shit.” He shook his head, realizing there was no elevator in the building, and started walking upstairs.

　There were no employees along the way, but the ground was clean enough.

　Nishikawa walked with his eyes looking left and right, afraid of stepping on the wrong spot and sinking into the floor.

　Upon reaching the fourth floor, Sanzenin Arashi discovered an old man sweeping the floor in the corridor.

　He was wearing a fairly decent suit, and his white hair was meticulously styled, making him look very energetic. However, one of his ears looked like it had been castrated, and the skin on it was necrotic.

　"Mr. Kyoki?" Sanzenin Arashi asked tentatively.

　The old man put down his broom, turned around and looked over. "You really are a young man. I am Jingmu Shanshui, the controlling shareholder of this publishing house."

　"Shall we go inside and talk?" Sanzenin Arashi pointed to the office door expressionlessly.

　“Mr. Kyokaki, I need a reason for the price of 500 million, a reason that can convince me.”

　After sitting down on the sofa, Sanzenin Arashi didn't touch the tea that the other party had served, but went straight to the point: "We are all businessmen, not playing house. I heard from my subordinates that Mr. Kyoki wants to sell this publishing house. So you don't even have an asset appraisal report, and you don't even accept our asset appraisal, but directly ask for a price of 500 million yen?"

　The office only has a table, a sofa, and a computer.

　Kyoki Zensui took a sip of tea, sighed, and said, "Of course there's a reason. Five hundred million yen is a very reasonable price."

　Sanzenin Arashi smiled.

　He looked at Kyōki Zensui, trying to keep his tone calm, "A publishing house with a financial deficit, whose offices are in disrepair for years, what's reasonable about that?"

　"They even checked our financial statements. Young man, you must be someone important."

　"However, what I must say is..."

　Sanzenin Arashi interrupted him, "One hundred million yen, that's my bottom line. Fortunately, your land is still usable and can be used for something else, otherwise my price would be even lower."

　Sanzenin Arashi has no intention of respecting the elderly or caring for the young.

　He is the heir to a chaebol, not a philanthropist.

　……

　There's something fishy about this.

　By the time she realized what was happening, Shizuku Nishikino had already packed her bags and was ready to go back.

　Thinking back on yesterday's events, the first suspect should be Aoyama Arashi.

　Shizuku Nishikino covered her forehead; she was currently very upset.

　With family discord and this kind of thing happening now, she had previously suspected Sanzenin Arashi because of her daughter's situation, so she hadn't considered this possibility.

　But now that she's calmed down, she's realized that this whole thing... is full of suspicious points.

　If it really was that little man who took advantage of her... Shizuku Nishikino even considered committing suicide.

　He's the same age as his daughter!

　Nishikino Shizuku took out her phone three times, wanting to dial Sanzenin Arashi's number, but she refrained from doing so each time.

　"Mom?" Maki Nishikino's voice came from the side, "Is Dad going abroad?"

　Shizuku Nishikino nodded. "Yes, I probably won't be back for a long time."

　“Oh…” Nishikino Maki replied, then lowered her head to continue reading.

　Shizuku Nishikino sighed. Anyway, she was going to meet Mr. Aoyama tomorrow, so she might as well talk to him in person.

　She went outside, found Nan Lingyin, and pulled her best friend to sit in an empty room.

　She plans to talk to her friend about this...

　Nan Lingyin frowned as her friend suddenly pulled her aside.

　Seeing that Shizuku Nishikino looked preoccupied, she couldn't help but ask, "Shizuku, what happened?"

　Shizuku Nishikino said with a complicated expression, "I got really drunk last night, and then when I woke up this morning, I found..."

　Hearing her friend suddenly stop talking, Nan Lingyin stretched her neck.

　The next second, Shizuku Nishikino lowered her voice and whispered in Suzune Minami's ear, "I found out I was raped..."

　Nan Lingyin's first reaction was to call the police.

　But she quickly realized that reporting this to the police was inappropriate...it would damage her reputation too much.

　Nishikino runs a hospital and considers this kind of thing extremely important; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it's a second life.

　Nan Lingyin immediately hugged her best friend and reached out to touch Nishikino Shizuku's head.

　This feeling... is just like it was more than ten years ago, filled with nostalgia.

　In the past, when Shizuku Nishikino was unhappy, Suzune Minami would hug her and gently comfort her.

　"Shizuku, no matter what, I will always be your friend."

　"Um……"

　..

256. I told her about this myself.

　The name Jingmu Shanshui sounds very grand.

　But this person is a speculator; his publishing house couldn't possibly have sold for 500 million yen, and the authors under his wing, to put it simply, are...

　They're a bunch of losers.

　In the context of online literature, this would be considered a nobody with an average of less than a thousand subscriptions.

　Sanzenin Arashi took a pen and listed out the information that Kyoki Zensui considered secret, one item at a time, on a piece of paper.

　The old man's expression immediately became quite interesting.

　Sanzenin Arashi was already prepared to be tricked; in fact, the documents Nishikawa gave him contained very detailed investigations.

　For example, Kyoki Publishing's revenue last year was 16 million yen. After paying various taxes and distributing a share to distributors, what remains for this Kyoki Zensui...

　"Let me be frank, Kyoki Publishing had a financial deficit of 1.2 million yen last year. It's a bottomless pit that only takes in money and never gives out. I'm willing to buy the publishing house for 100 million yen. If you shake your head, I'll leave right now."

　Sanzenin Arashi banged on the table, and his words made Kyoki Zensui's eyes widen.

　"Impossible! The publishing house just updated all the equipment last year. Not to mention anything else, the actual price of this land alone is tens of millions of yen. If you need to run a publishing house, I have accumulated connections that I can give to you. You also know the actual situation in the publishing industry, right?"

　Whether it's a bookstore or a distributor, they won't just buy goods from companies of unknown origin!

　"One hundred million yen is no problem, but I'll take everything, including the equipment and personnel."

　Sanzenin Arashi raised an eyebrow. Indeed, what Kyoki Zensui said made a lot of sense; equipment and connections were the real key.

　However, he came to Jingmu Publishing House because he was interested in their land.

　Well... the land where Jingmu Publishing House is located was planned in the last century.

　Its size is higher than that of other places. After the policy change, this type of building occupies about 300-400 square meters.

　However, the land occupied by Kyokuk Publishing House is 600 tsubo (approximately 333 square meters), and it was inherited from Kyokuk Zensui's ancestors, a piece of land that he could freely trade.

　After World War II, Japan established its domestic government, and its laws were enacted under the supervision of the United States.

　One of these is a non-civilian industry standard that standardizes the floor area of ​​buildings.

　However, there is one exception, such as one's own private land.

　To put it simply, Jingmu Publishing is the best among the existing small-scale leather goods publishing houses.

　After comparing prices from several vendors, Sanzenin Arashi is definitely the best choice.

　……

　Nishikawa, a lackey of Sanzenin Arashi, immediately stood up and produced the contract. "We have absolutely no problem with that, Mr. Kyoki. We don't need to accept any resources other than the publishing house itself. In other words, Mr. Kyoki is making a profit this time. Mr. Kyoki is essentially selling a piece of land worth tens of millions for a price of hundreds of millions. In this respect... we are just doing our job for money and don't want to make things complicated. What do you think?"

　That's right, based on its size, this piece of land is indeed worth tens of millions.

　However, considering other factors, land prices can increase exponentially.

　Kyoki Zensui seemed unaware of these things, and Sanzenin Arashi did not bring them up either.

　"Hmm... I see. I'll contact a moving company right away to empty this building. Mr. Aoyama, thank you in advance." Kyokki had been ripped off, yet he was still helping Sanzenin Arashi count the money.

　"Not at all, as long as Mr. Kyoki is happy." Sanzenin Arashi used her phone to make a few adjustments, and Kyoki Zensui received the money.

　He got into Xichuan's car with a big smile and went to the commerce department to handle the various property transfer issues.

　(These things are actually very complicated to do, but I won't go into details.)

　……

　Sanzenin Arashi parked her car in front of a villa next to a large greenbelt in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo.

　This green belt is an oasis that stretches out to both sides from a small hill. Emperor Sanzenin built a small villa here for his grandson, covering an area of ​​2300 tsubo (approximately 333 square meters), and there is also a helicopter parked inside.

　Arashi Sanzenin planned to have a good chat with Shizuku Nishikino in this villa. He needed to apologize to Mrs. Nishikino for this matter. He was here today to give some instructions in advance.

　After unlocking the door with his fingerprint, Sanzenin Arashi noticed a pink figure standing by the fountain. He looked closely and then remembered the person's name.

　Hisako Nishito, Erina Nakiri's servant, was given to her as a plaything.

　Although Sanzenin Arashi did not intend to treat her as a plaything, the woman noticed that after Sanzenin Arashi entered the room, she lowered her head and did not look at him.

　"Hisako Shinto?" Arashi Sanzenin asked.

　"it's me."

　Arashi Sanzenin nodded, walked to the fountain, took out his keychain, took a key from it, and placed it in front of Hisako Shinoto.

　"This is?"

　“You can use Nakiri Erina’s house, Grandpa shouldn’t have kept you under house arrest.” Sanzenin Arashi shook his head and said, “That’s why I’m going to let you go back… It’s not the last century anymore, keeping mistresses in a gilded cage isn’t fashionable these days.”

　He sighed.

　I suspect that the old man's intention in building so many villas was to allow someone to keep more women.

　There are six villas, and one person can be placed in each one. They are several districts apart, so there is no fear of being discovered.
