I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World - Chapter 1337

Chapter 1337 – Nip It In The Bud

Since the bankruptcy of Takeda Pharmaceutical, the Mitsui Consortium had fallen from grace and turned from a first-class consortium to now a second-rate consortium. If it weren?t for the ancient family name, the head of the Mitsui family would not even be qualified to sit at the banquet with Jiang Chen.

However, when Mitsui Hiroto was auctioning off Takeda Pharmaceutical, he hid some tricks under his sleeve and bought the servers with a shell company. At that time, he didn?t think too much; it was just an attempt to hedge for the future. After all, Takeda Pharmaceutical spent a lot of money on research and development for these formatted virus materials.

But not long ago, the CIB found him and suddenly asked about those servers.

After he considered the recent international situation, Hiroto Mitsui immediately understood the CIB?s intentions, so he gladly stated that he was the owner of those servers, and at the same time graciously expressed that he was willing to donate these servers. He was even willing to help the CIB, who was now in an awkward position in Nippon, ship these servers out of the country.

Taking refuge in the CIB was a gamble.

Just as he put his bet on Jiang Chen at that time and believed that Celestial Trade could completely eradicate the Kurofune, he did not hesitate to hand over the list in exchange for a promise from Jiang Chen.

If he chose to side with the UA on this matter, with the support of the Capitol, the Mitsui family could make a potential comeback. What?s more, he himself was very disgusted with what the current authorities were doing now. He was a staunch supporter of the UA-Nippon alliance. He was also an extremely right-leaning supporter. Otherwise, he would not invest in Tanaka?s project to help the development of the ?T-virus?.

Early the next morning, Mitsui Hiroto called the CIB.

?…Last night, I saw Sumitomo Kenichi get into Jiang Chen?s car??

?Yesterday? Fu*k! Why did you just call me now!? The man on the other end of the phone was very angry, as he interrupted Mitsui Hiroto. ?You let Sumitomo Kenichi be with that man all night!?

The person on the phone was in charge of the CIB operations in Nippon and his name is Frank. Under normal circumstances, the CIB kept Sumitomo Kenichi under surveillance, but last night was an exception. Where Jiang Chen appeared, Ghost Agents would definitely be on standby nearby. Therefore, it would have been no different than a suicide mission to request someone to go to the New Otani Hotel, so he asked Mitsui Hiroto.

As the owner of the Mitsui Group, it was not an issue for Mitsui Hiroto to attend the state banquet, and he could even sit at the same table as Jiang Chen and Sumitomo Kenichi. What?s more, Mitsui Hiroto was also involved in the smuggling of servers.

Mitsui Hiroto was a little embarrassed when Frank called him out.

Last night, he did want to call the CIB to inform them of the intelligence. However, he suddenly received a call from the company on his way home, so he had to change his itinerary at the last minute to deal with the matter. Unfortunately, he ended up forgetting the matter and only remembered this morning.

?He didn?t stay for too long, I followed them for some distance, and finally Sumitomo Kenichi got out of the vehicle midway,? Mitsui Hiroto coughed to hide his awkwardness, ?Maybe he didn?t reveal the secrets of those servers. As the heir of the Sumitomo Foundation, there is no need for him to risk it for something that has nothing to do with him.?

After a pause, Mitsui Hiroto continued.

?And as I just said, he didn?t ask Jiang Chen to take him home last night. If he stupidly chose to inform, he would definitely not get out of the car and take a taxi home without a bodyguard. They probably just chatted about business matters. At the banquet, Sumitomo san stated that he planned to import medical drones.?

As Mitsui Hiroto attempted to excuse his mistake, Frank was about to explode. His hand holding the phone couldn?t stop shaking, and he almost smashed the phone against the wall.

You followed Jiang Chen

When did you become 007

I need you to analyze the situation

There was no need to guess at all. Jiang Chen already confirmed Mitsui Hiroto?s link with the servers. He wouldn?t even be surprised if this phone call was being tapped. Regardless of how far the little mouse hired by Sumitomo Kenichi had gotten, once the Ghost Agents were on the case, they would definitely follow the lead from Mitsui Hiroto.

The only reason why he was not captured by Ghost Agents on the spot was for this very reason.

What a dumba*s teammate!

Frank scolded the old man countless times. He finally took a deep breath, calmed his mind and tone, and continued.

?… It?s hard to say whether Sumitomo Kenichi has leaked the information. We can?t take this risk. To continue waiting would only force us to be in a more awkward position. We must ship the servers out of the country as soon as possible. I already have a plan, but we need your cooperation… Come to Ginza immediately, and we will meet in the same place.?

?I will leave now.? Mitsui Hiroto nodded.

Frank didn?t hesitate after he hung up the phone. He immediately looked at the assistant beside him and said coldly.

?Hiroto Mitsui has been tracked by Ghost Agents, sent someone to take him out. He is a bit sensitive, so remember to do it cleanly.?

?Yes!? The assistant nodded and immediately walked out of the office.

After Mitsui Hiroto hung up, he left his office immediately and called his butler.

?Get the car immediately, I need to go out.?

The bulter quickly prepared the car.

Without the time to eat breakfast, Mitsui Hiroto rushed to the garage in the basement. Before the bodyguard opened the door for him, he opened the door himself and sat in.

At this moment, all of Mitsui Hiroto?s thoughts were on the servers. He didn?t even notice that just as his car left his mansion, a black car followed him.

Gill maintained a safe distance behind Mitsui Hiroto. She freed up her right hand holding the steering wheel and pressed lightly on her collar.

?Target has left the residence, Group B and Group C follow up.?

?Roger that.?

Two clear replies came into her ear.

The cars that were waiting on the next two streets also started their engines slowly and trailed Gill?s vehicle.

Perhaps to prevent being tracked by Celestial Trade, Mitsui Hiroto drove a fuel-powered car without a magnetic levitation function. Gill and the others did not activate the magnetic levitation device on their cars as they mixed with the sparse traffic on the street.

Gill?s eyes were locked on Mitsui Hiroto. She gestured to her teammate next to her to release the drone. The drone jetted along the bottom of the magnetic levitation lane to prevent losing Mitsui Hiroto.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened…
