Below the rostrum, reporters from various TV stations and foreign countries were all there, witnessing this new historical scene.
This man, who entered politics right after graduating from university and has fought again and again despite repeated failures for more than 40 years, finally became the interim prime minister today.
Although, the term is only for a little over a year.
"How are you going to teach him a lesson?" Shiraishi Nagimitsu asked while looking at the TV screen after handing the ordered menu to the waiter.
"You'll see it soon." Abe Nojaku sneered.
Just after the Prime Minister concluded his speech with great momentum, the media reporters began to ask questions.
Suddenly, a media reporter said: "Mr. Prime Minister, I just received the latest news:
Professor Hirota Ueno of the University of Tokyo has submitted a letter of complaint and evidence to the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office, alleging that you, Prime Minister, understated the revenue and expenditure section of your 2024 income and expenditure report by a total of 2800 million yen, and that you are suspected of violating the Political Funds Control Act. Do you have any comments?
As soon as the reporter finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar.
All the reporters present ignored the order in the venue and made phone calls and sent messages to the local procuratorate and various channels to verify the facts.
Will this newly appointed Prime Minister step down on the first day because of the political black money incident?
Whose handiwork is this?
Shiraishi Nagimitsu looked at the chaotic conference hall on the screen, frowned, and looked at Abe Noja.
Using black gold to attack is a very common method. Not long ago, I even went to the special search team because of this.
It was later discovered that it was Abe's counterattack against the previous prime minister who had already resigned.
In this round of counterattack, all the underwater alliances in Japanese politics were completely broken up.
But the result is that the newly appointed interim prime minister is the biggest winner.
After the underground alliance was gone, this lonely man who was not loved by his grandmother, uncle and everyone despised him became the candidate with the highest number of votes.
Successfully elected.
The Prime Minister looked at the chaotic meeting place with a gloomy face. Someone came to disrupt the meeting on the first day.
And this moment.
Abe no Suku sneered while eating sushi.
"How about it, Councillor Shiraishi? I invited you to dinner today. This wonderful show was worth it." Abe Noja put down her chopsticks, wiped her red lips elegantly, wiped her palms with a wet wipe, and said with a smile.
"Congressman Abe's tactics remain as sharp as ever, but I don't think things are that simple," Shiraishi Nagimitsu frowned as he watched the TV. "Our Prime Minister has been in politics for over 40 years and is a veteran of ours. He won't be defeated so easily."
"Oh? Really?" Abe Noja nodded. "I want to see what other tricks he has up his sleeve."
Chapter 219 A Date between Two Beautiful Women
Abe Nozaki rested his right hand on the dining table, leaned sideways, and looked at Prime Minister Shigeki Shiba on the TV screen with an expressionless face.
A black dress paired with purple stockings.
This combination of heavy colors and a bit kitsch looks strangely sophisticated on her when paired with her makeup.
Kneeling on the tatami, her plump buttocks were pushed out by a pair of full and strong wine glass-shaped thighs.
Honey-colored skin, thick eyeshadow, bright red lipstick, still European makeup, simple copper earrings.
"Congressman Shiraishi, if... it was you in this position, what would you do?" Abe Nojaku stared at the interim Prime Minister Shigeharu Shiba on the screen, but asked Shiraishi Nagiko.
"Is Congressman Abe asking about the present? Or the future?" Shiraishi Nagimitsu also looked at the screen without turning her head, and answered with her red lips slightly parted.
Mei Shiraishi next to her couldn't understand or hear anything at all. She yawned, her little face looked a little tired, and she wanted to sleep.
I waited for that man from last night until the early morning, and now I am so sleepy.
Moreover, after the two exchanged pleasantries, they kept talking around the bush. Don’t people involved in politics ever say anything direct?
I keep spinning around and around until I feel dizzy.
"What will you do now?" Abe Nojaku turned around and smiled at Shiraishi Nagimitsu. "What will you do next?"
"If we take the current situation, I don't think this incident is a problem. Without the prosecutor's office intervening, I have plenty of time to manipulate the accounts and even find a scapegoat. But no matter how I make amends, it's a blow to the Prime Minister's credibility in the polls." Shiraishi Nagiri continued, looking at the screen.
"It can be said that your attack, whether successful or not, has achieved its effect. This incident has also dealt a heavy blow to his international prestige. Many countries that were watching will probably wait and see for a while, aside from sending congratulatory messages, and will not cooperate much in the short term."
"What happens next?" Abe Nojaku stared closely at Shiraishi Nagimitsu. "How will you recover this loss?"
"Is Congressman Abe testing me?" Shiraishi Nagiko looked back at Abe Noja with a smile.
"I can't say I'm testing. I just want to see if Councillor Shiraishi and I have the same idea." Abe Nojaku said lightly.
"We Japanese, from ancient times to the present day, have learned many valuable things from our neighbors." Shiraishi Nagimitsu turned his head back to the screen, not directly answering, but speaking to himself: "These things have benefited us immensely over the past millennia, permeating every aspect of our lives. However, there is one most precious thing that the vast majority of Japanese have abandoned."
"That means respecting and learning from history." Shiraishi Nagimitsu turned around and looked at Abe Nosuke. "There's an old Chinese saying: 'Learn from history.'"
“History is our teacher. Almost everything we don’t know how to do can be learned and concluded from history.”
"So..." Abe Noja nodded and gave up looking at Shiraishi Nagiko: "I think I know your answer. It's exactly what I thought..."
"After World War II, then-Prime Minister Yoshida Shigeru first did this, and since then, other prime ministers have continued to follow suit."
"But I wonder, would he dare to do this on his first day as Prime Minister?"
"I have no doubt about that." Shiraishi Nagimitsu shook his head. "What would a Prime Minister without any faction dare not do? And what could be more beneficial to him than doing this?"
"You have a point." Abe Noja looked coldly at Prime Minister Shigeki Shiba, who was constantly answering reporters' questions on the screen. "Then let's see how this Prime Minister performs."
"Dear media friends, we have answered enough questions about the Prime Minister's political black money incident. This is just a statistical misunderstanding. Soon this misunderstanding will be confirmed by the official Procuratorate. Now it is up to Prime Minister Shiba to issue the first Prime Minister's decree after taking office." The host said after suppressing the media who were still asking questions and taking back the microphones from their hands.
what?
Issuing a Prime Minister’s Order right after taking office?
The media was in an uproar.
After the noise, the entire press conference fell silent, waiting for the Prime Minister's speech.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I now issue my first decree as Prime Minister." Prime Minister Shigeki said solemnly, "I declare that the Japanese National Diet will be dissolved immediately and a new general election will be held!!!"
After the entire venue was shocked, there was another uproar.
All the videos, sounds, and text reports from the scene were instantly spread around the world through the Internet and appeared in major news media around the world.
Japan's new Prime Minister Shigeki Shigeki dissolved the National Assembly on his first day in office, marking the start of Japan's next parliamentary election.
Prime Minister Shigeki broke the record for the fastest dissolution of the National Assembly since World War II.
Abe Nojaku looked at the screen with a gloomy face.
really.
Although I thought of this, I didn't think that this new prime minister, who was a fence-sitter and a stab in the back, would be so decisive.
Dissolving the National Assembly and holding early parliamentary elections is tantamount to pushing oneself to the other side of all parties.
Would Prime Minister Shigeki Shibata, a veteran in politics, do this?
But, apparently he dared to do it.
"He really dares." Abe Nosuke shook his head: "It seems that this old man has risked everything."
"This is the best choice for him," Shiraishi Nagimitsu said with a smile. "His election this time can be considered a surprise. Once all the factions in his party realize this, they might unite and impeach him as party leader."
"Once he loses his position as party leader, he will naturally lose his position as prime minister. If a prime minister who has just taken office is impeached and removed from office immediately, he will probably become a laughing stock around the world."
"Although his move was hated, it effectively resolved all the crises before him. He broke the record for the Japanese Prime Minister dissolving the National Diet, which is more glorious than breaking the record for the fastest prime minister to step down."
"With this order, lawmakers will be busy preparing for elections again. Once the National Assembly stabilizes again, I'm afraid not all of the factions within the party that want to target him will be elected."
“Instead of playing a game where the outcome is uncertain for him, it’s better to just overturn the table and start over.”
"Our interim prime minister has been working in Japanese politics for over 40 years and has finally waited for this opportunity. He won't fall so easily."
"Whatever he does," Abe Nojaku's expression returned to a relaxed state. She raised a cup of sake in her small hand and elegantly toasted Shiraishi Nagimitsu, "Anyway, our seats as members of parliament are as secure as a rock, and our vote bank is as strong as a rock. It has nothing to do with us."
The two beauties clinked their glasses gently and then each elegantly brought the glass to her red lips.
Shiraishi took a sip of sake, smiled and said nothing.
Abe Nojaku said it well.
For legislators like them who have stable and strong vote bases and are also representatives of special legislators, all they have to do is spend two days visiting their constituencies and showing their faces.
They are already so familiar with each other.
Just after the two of them finished the sake in front of them.
On the TV screen, the new Prime Minister Shigeru Seba continued to explain his governing policies.
The first thing is to announce the latest cabinet members, which is a normal replacement of cabinet ministers for successive prime ministers.
Some veteran cabinet ministers, such as Home Minister Hiroshi Kojima, still hold their positions firmly, and their administrative abilities will be needed no matter who comes to power.
Secondly, several cabinet ministers who represent political family power have not been rotated.
However, nearly half of the cabinet members were replaced by the new prime minister.
The second thing is about domestic policy. Since the Prime Minister has just taken office and has not yet discussed with cabinet members, economic and financial management will continue the policies of the previous government.
The latest policy will be issued in a few days and then submitted to the new National Assembly for discussion and vote.
The third thing is the diplomatic policy. Shi Pomao glanced at the many cameras in front of him and stated his diplomatic stance word by word.
"I will urge Washington to amend the Japan-US Security Treaty to correct the 'asymmetry' of the Japan-US alliance. Since the United States has troops stationed in Japan, the Japanese Self-Defense Forces can naturally be stationed in Guam."
There was silence.
After he finished speaking, the entire venue was extremely quiet.
It was so quiet that it was a bit solemn.
As for Abe Noja and Shiraishi Nagiko, who were outside the screen, they frowned, looked at each other, and said nothing.
What exactly does this new prime minister want? Isn't he a Protestant? Why did he attack the United States as soon as he took office?
What on earth is he planning?
They couldn't understand.
And what exactly does this newly appointed Prime Minister want to do?
He knew that this idea was impossible to succeed, so why did he have to provoke Washington's anger?
Or is it that they want to gain more political benefits in Japan and attract more people's attention while Washington has not yet elected a new president?
He is not satisfied with being the interim prime minister for just over a year and wants to be re-elected?
"Mr. Shiraishi, what do you think?" Abe Noja's face flushed a little.
Before they knew it, their faces were flushed from drinking so much.
"It's hard to say right now." Shiraishi Nagimitsu shook his head. "Perhaps he's being so rude and direct just to establish himself as a tough Japanese Prime Minister, to attract the public's attention and win their support. After all, the US military stationed in Japan has caused a lot of trouble recently."
Abe Nosuke's face froze.
Most of the recent large-scale outbreaks of U.S. troops stationed in Japan were orchestrated by her.
Unexpectedly, all his counterattacks gave the interim prime minister more opportunities.
"Perhaps he has a trick up his sleeve." Shiraishi Nagimitsu frowned. "Let's wait and see what the Prime Minister is going to do. Perhaps he's just retreating to gain some political leverage."
Inside the TV screen.
After a brief silence in the venue, all the media reporters immediately became excited again.
If the dissolution of the National Assembly just now only caused an uproar, his foreign policy seemed like a bomb.
A news bomb.
Everyone who works in the media likes bombs like this.

U.S. Yokota Air Base in Japan.
The headquarters of the Fifth Air Force.
The Commander-in-Chief of the US Forces in Japan, Air Force Lieutenant General Ricky Rupp, was watching the Prime Minister's speech on the screen with Saeko.
After listening, the two looked at each other.
In front of them was the investigation report just sent from North America.
