When Sanzenin Arashi uttered his first words, Izumo Yoru's expression vanished, and he stared at him stiffly, his expression remaining unchanged until he finished speaking.

 "This...this matter, I'm investigating it, and I've also entrusted the Tokugawa group with it. I was robbed on their territory..."

 "Izumo, you want me to throw you into Tokyo Bay, don't you?"

 Izumo Night was suffocating.

 He remembered something.

 The Maeda Group in Tokyo suffered a devastating blow when half of its members died, and the group leader's sole heir was rendered vegetative and remains hospitalized.

 "No, absolutely not!"

 Sanzenin Arashi crossed her legs and said, "Then explain it to me?"

 Izumo Yoru swallowed hard, feeling like he was walking a tightrope, while also marveling at the president's kindness.

 Haha, you find that all the contracts have been lost at other companies?

 One was fired, the other was ruined.

 It's impossible to sit together and talk calmly like we do now.

 "This was my oversight... The result is already like this, there's no point in explaining further," Izumo Yoru said, forcing a smile.

 He breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that Sanzenin Arashi was just staring at the table and not saying anything.

 call……

 "I want to make amends for this blunder with my performance in the future." Izumo Yoru took out his bag.

 Under Sanzenin Arashi's gaze, he unzipped his pants and...

 He pulled out a knife!

 A knife for cutting meat.

 The blade has a snowflake-like pattern on its surface and an exceptionally sharp edge.

 pat.

 The knife was placed on the desk, and then Izumo Yoru took a breath and pushed his arm forward.

 A sharp knife was placed in front of Sanzenin Arashi.

 "The loss of the contract is a very serious business crisis. I will talk to each of my subordinates in detail to try to salvage the situation," Izumo Yoru said slowly. "If I can't do it, I'll chop off my hand."

 Sanzenin Arashi glanced at Izumo Yoru, pursed her lips, and nodded. "Okay, you can go ahead and do your work."

 ……

 Sanae Tokugawa glanced at the dance studio from the doorway before heading to the women's restroom.

 She went into a private room, closed the door, took off her handbag, and took out a laptop from it.

 It's considered the most high-end netbook currently available. The Tokugawa family is wealthy, so naturally they would buy the best.

 It's not very big, just enough to fill a handbag.

 She placed the laptop on the toilet seat, lifted the screen, and pressed the power button.

 A fan started making noise, and the computer turned on.

 Strange things happened.

 Two minutes later, the computer was still in a read state.

 Originally, a high-end laptop equipped with an SSD should have a boot time of less than twenty seconds.

 However, it's currently stuck on the boot screen and won't move.

 Sanae Tokugawa pursed her lips, her expression perfectly calm, showing no surprise whatsoever.

 It's as if... they already knew about this.

 She took a lipstick out of her bag and applied it to the corner of her mouth.

 Then, a little person appeared on the screen.

 This little figure has golden hair and is dressed in a sailor uniform.

 If Sanzenin Arashi were here, she would definitely call out a name.

 Riko Mine.

 "It seems you've already believed what Riko said," the girl said to Tokugawa Sanae. "Riko can help you win over Aoyama Arashi, you know. Haven't you had a crush on him for a month?"

 Sanae Tokugawa blushed slightly.

 "Is it really possible...?"

 "Trust Riko's words. Just do as Riko says from now on, and there won't be any problems," Riko said with a charming smile. "Also, Riko has something to ask of you. We're business partners."

 "What?" Tokugawa Sanae immediately became alert. "I won't do those dangerous things."

 As expected of a yakuza heiress, she really knows the ropes—that's what Mine Riko thought to herself, but then she said, "I just wanted to ask you to prepare a server room for me. I'd like to find two people."

 "What are you going to do to those two?" Tokugawa Sanae frowned. "I will not assist others in killing."

 Riko Mine laughed. "No, Riko has her own reasons for talking to those two people. The person who brought me here, and my rival. Riko has a lot to say to them, and I really don't mean any harm."

 Sanae Tokugawa breathed a sigh of relief.

 This Riko Mine... is actually an AI.

 It took the girl most of the day to accept this idea, from last night until now.

 This AI wants to find someone, and it doesn't mean any harm.

 Sanae Tokugawa did not believe it.

 "Don't you want to be with the man you like?" Riko blinked. "Riko can help you."

 Just a little? How about we hear it first? — Tokugawa Sanae couldn't refuse this offer.

 "What should I do?" Tokugawa Sanae asked.

 Upon hearing this, Mine Riko smiled.

 This is right.

 "First of all, Riko wants you to terminate your contract with this company."

 "Wha, what?!"

 “Sanae, look at you. Right now, you’re just a newcomer, and the person you like is an idol. You can’t possibly enter his world like this. You can only be treated as a pretty face, or at most, an object for venting your desires.”

 "Why, how could this happen..."

 Riko Mine continued, "So, Riko can help you become a hugely popular idol, with an equal standing to him, and then things will be much simpler. What do you say? Will you accept Riko's offer?"

 Sanae Tokugawa fell into deep thought.

 I'll give it a try.

 After finishing her thoughts, the girl nodded.

390. Alice's Twitter~~~

 Sanzenin Arashi sat in a chair, turned on the computer in her office, and opened a software program.

 Scene after scene appeared on the screen.

 These shots include scenes in corridors, rooms, and even the entrance to a toilet.

 It was clearly the surveillance footage from this floor.

 Suddenly, a woman appeared in one of the shots.

 This woman has bright green hair and is clearly Tokugawa Sanae.

 The girl was walking towards the dance studio.

 Looking at her expression, Sanzenin Arashi felt as if she were watching a dish being stir-fried in a pot, and a feeling of seasoning from a three-star chef rose in her heart.

 Sanae Tokugawa stood at the door of the dance studio, pushed it open, and went inside. Arashi Sanzenin continued to observe the girl by watching the surveillance footage of the dance studio.

 Sanae Tokugawa placed her bag on the storage compartment by the dance studio door and then went over to say hello.

 Sanzenin Arashi hummed the melody of "Final Demon Girl," as if waiting for something to happen.

 He watched as Tokugawa Sanae greeted him, began practicing her dance, and then...

 Sanzenin Arashi suddenly stood up from his chair.

 He walked out the door and strode quickly toward the dance studio, taking less than a minute to reach the door.

 He reached out and opened the door to the dance studio, took off his shoes, and silenced his footsteps.

 He walked up to Tokugawa Sanae's storage compartment, reached out and grabbed the handbag, then stepped back.

 He put his shoes back on, returned to his office, and clicked the mouse...

 The surveillance footage from the dance studio was deleted, and then the surveillance equipment was turned off.

 Then, he took out the laptop inside.

 Open the drawer, and inside is a knife with a snow-patterned blade.

 Sanzenin Arashi raised the sword and stabbed it into the notebook!

 Swish!

 The blade traced a silver trail in the air.

 When the knife was still several tens of centimeters away from the laptop, it suddenly stopped.

 Sanzenin Arashi thought for a moment, then put the knife back and tossed the notebook into the drawer.

 He got up, took a plastic bag, and put Tokugawa Sanae's leather bag inside.

 He casually picked up the bag, took the elevator, and brought it to the first floor.

 Having found an empty room, Sanzenin Arashi took out a lighter from her pocket.

 After a while.

 The bag had been burned to ashes.

 He clapped his hands, turned around, and left.

 …………

 While Sanzenin Arashi was fidgeting in her office, Alice nervously checked her Twitter account.

 Looking at Sanae on the screen, she couldn't help but ask, "Will it really work to record with a regular microphone?"

 "Be confident! Alice is adorable. No Twitter until 6 PM, okay? We made a promise!"

 "Yes, yes, yes..." Alice nodded.

 She looked at the Twitter page, which was still empty as it hadn't been refreshed; there wasn't a single comment.

 A perfectly edited photo by Sanae is displayed on the profile picture. The cute girl in the photo strikes a "kira~" pose, and below the photo is a personal description from the Twitter user.

 【I'm Alice, starting my online idol career today! Nice to meet you all~~】

 "Alice~ Alice, it'll be six in five minutes. Sanae thinks you should check out some videos on Nico Nico Douga first." Sanae tapped the screen and said loudly, "Everyone will love Alice because she sings beautifully and dances gorgeously~"

 "Eh..." Alice buried her head.

 I'm so shy.

 "Alice~ Alice, why are you shy but still want to become an idol?" Sanae asked.

 Alice's bright blue eyes widened instantly, and her fair and delicate cheeks flushed red.

 "Because..."

 "Because? Alice, Alice, Sanae is very curious~"

 "Sanae..."

 "Alice, Alice, what's wrong?"
