Chapter 37: Negotiations with right-wing bosses (Part 1)
The east bank of the Obetsu River, the Takajo family's residence
Like many cities in Japan, Yodo City was a Yodo domain of the same name before the Meiji Restoration, ruled by the daimyo family surnamed Takagi. This building complex built on the high ground in the city center was the residence of the Takagi family, who lost their status as lords and nobles after the abolition of the feudal lordship and the establishment of a prefecture.
At the same time, this is also the headquarters of the Japanese right-wing extremist group "Kokugoku Isshinkai" organized by the Takagi family.
Even though they lost their status as lords and nobles, the Western-style mansion of the Takagi family is still extremely luxurious.
——The Victorian-style wrought iron railings, the square in front of the house paved with neat stones, the well-proportioned Western-style garden, the white marble statues hidden among the green trees and flowers, and the gurgling fountain all day long, all indicate the owner's strong financial resources and Deep foundation.
However, on this turbulent and chaotic night, the luxurious courtyard of the Gaocheng family's mansion was full of people jostling each other.
——A person who looks frightened and doesn’t know what will happen tomorrow.
——Forcing calm and whispering comfort to the crying relatives and friends.
——A person who is irritable and restless, and glares nervously at others just because they come a little closer.
——A person who is dejected, holding his knees, eyes dull, and has completely lost confidence in the present and the future.
……
Although the current governor of the Takagi family, Takagi Soichiro, the president of the right-wing group "Concerned for the Country Isshinkai" mobilized his men - many strong and burly men with stern faces like soldiers, holding sticks and scolding to maintain order, but These refugee citizens still look like a mess. But having said that, under the simple conditions where most people only have a plastic sheet to sit on the ground, and only a few old, weak, women and children have tents to block the wind, there is no way to ask these ordinary citizens who have just experienced daily collapse Everyone, obey orders like soldiers!
——In the early 21st century, these highly degenerate and otaku-oriented Japanese are no longer the fighting nation they were in the militaristic era.
"...No matter how you look at it, they are all a bunch of rabble... Can you make these people obey the instructions next?"
Standing on the balcony of the Gaocheng family's residence, frowning and looking down at the messy living beings in the courtyard, Wang Qiu couldn't help but mutter.
"...Don't worry! This should be just a temporary depression! After all, they are also Japanese, and they are a tough nation tempered by earthquakes, typhoons and fires for generations!" Duo, who was looking at the satellite surveillance screen, La Meng is quite confident about this.
——Alas, Mr. Doraemon, the Japanese in this era who have become cute are not necessarily as tough as their ancestors!
Wang Qiu glanced at him and complained in his heart. At the same time, he changed the subject, "...Has the police isolation zone in the Gobetsu River collapsed?"
"...Yes, under the impact of the massive zombies, it completely collapsed. The police and firefighters all fled."
Doraemon sighed and pulled up an overhead photo of the Gobie Bridge from the screen. You could see that on the messy bridge, apart from abandoned vehicles and mutilated human corpses, there were only a few stumbling remains. The staggering zombies and the policemen who were still there in the evening have disappeared now. Traces, "...But even if they can still hold the Obetsu River defense line, it is meaningless now. Because the zombie groups from Ibaraki Prefecture in the north and Chiba Prefecture in the south have poured into the eastern part of Bedlord City from behind - starting tomorrow From now on, this place will officially become a city of the living dead!”
"...City of the Living Dead...? Oh, I really don’t know what to say!"
Although he had known the final outcome of this land for a long time, Wang Qiu could not help but feel deeply sad when the cruel destruction truly came.
——The seemingly brilliant and splendid human civilization is actually such a fragile thing when faced with a catastrophe that destroys everything!
At this moment, a waiter in black came over and said to Wang Qiu and Doraemon respectfully:
"...Both of you, could you please excuse me? President Gao Cheng has something to do and would like to invite you two to come over and discuss it."
Doraemon and Wang Qiu exchanged a look with understanding.
——The real drama is finally here!
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
The place where Soichiro Takagi held private talks with Wang Qiu and Doraemon was a traditional Japanese room.
——Antique paper sliding doors, tatami mats exuding the scent of straw, scrolls of flowers and birds on the walls, colorful porcelain decorative vases with flowers in the corners, samurai swords and gorgeous armors displayed on wooden shelves, and exquisite furniture with ukiyoe patterns carved on the surface. ……
Wang Qiu and Doraemon sat on their knees on the tatami out of boredom, looking at the luxurious decorations in the room while waiting for their master to arrive.
——Since visiting Nobi’s house frequently, Wang Qiu has gradually learned the Japanese way of kneeling on the tatami. Although it would be too much for him to maintain the standard kneeling and sitting posture for a long time, but if it was only for a few minutes or ten minutes, he could barely hold on.
"...Oh, why hasn't Gao Cheng's father come yet?" Doraemon said boredly, "...Isn't he preparing for a tea ceremony for us!"
"...tea ceremony?!!" Wang Qiu suddenly trembled, "...it's better not to do it! I don't like exchanging saliva with men!"
Well, Wang Qiu once experienced the seemingly elegant Japanese "tea ceremony" with a Japanese student in school, and the impression left on him by that experience was definitely unforgettable—— Although the Japanese international student repeatedly boasted about tea beforehand, Taoism is not only an excellent pastime for "cultivating one's character, cultivating one's sentiments, putting aside the troubles of the world for the time being, and experiencing the elegant artistic conception". It is also an important way to practice Zen and comprehend the profound meaning of the so-called "peace and tranquility". It is a cultural treasure of their island country... But what actually happened?
——On a hot summer day, seven or eight burly men were crowded into a paper tea room with a total area of only four and a half tatami mats. Their feet were next to each other, shoulder to shoulder, and they were chatting casually. While talking about irrelevant topics, surrounded by scorching body heat, they took turns drinking tea from a large pottery bowl, letting their lips touch indirectly through it... Is it a bit similar to a couple sharing a glass of wine on a date?
That’s right, it’s so gay, it’s really so gay! It’s so gay as hell!
Not to mention that what they drank was still the kind of green "paste" that was boiled with powdered tea, which looked frothy and unappetizing... In short, since that erotic experience, Wang Qiu became obsessed with Japanese tea ceremony. I have a phobia and think that even playing mahjong is healthier than this thing.
Well, back to the subject, as a practical leader of the right-wing group, Takagi Soichiro, although he prides himself on being a traditional samurai, is not bored enough to play tea ceremony at such a moment. After opening the paper door and entering the house, he just They knelt down and sat down across from each other. At the same time, they bowed slightly and said, "...Sorry, there was something unexpected and trivial just now, which delayed me a little bit, so I am late. Please forgive me."
——From the appearance point of view, Takagi Soichiro is definitely a standard pure man with a copper skin and an iron frame... nothing like his beautiful daughter.
"...I have heard from Shaye what happened in the past two days. My daughter has been taken care of by you all the way - I know her awkward character, so I really thank you for your hard work. Also, what did you just do? I would also like to express my deep gratitude to the cadres of this association for their help..."
Takagi Soichiro once again bowed slightly to express his thanks, "...if it weren't for you, several of my old subordinates would have lost their families forever."
——About a few dozen minutes ago, several high school students at Fujimi Gakuen used [tray bags] to drag their parents over one after another, thereby reuniting the family. After that, the Takagi family's "Concern for the Country" Several cadres were also very jealous, so after the high school students finished using it, they also borrowed the [Retrieval Bag], hoping to use it to rescue their lost wives and children.
As a result, some of them got what they wanted, but some of them got nothing at all - it can be seen that their families either fled far away from the urban area of the bed owner, or they have died in the zombie catastrophe... The worst thing is that several of them got through [Take Bag] The family members of the rescued cadres were unfortunately bitten by zombies on the way to escape, and they even started to vomit blood and become dizzy. They were not far from the stage of corpse transformation!
If this situation were encountered in other places, in order to avoid the zombie crisis of "infecting a group of people" from breaking out in the shelter, I am afraid that the unlucky cadre would have to hold back his tears, kill his relatives out of justice, and use an iron rod to smash the bodies of his wife and children with his own hands. Head...
But in the Takagi family at this moment, there is no need to stage such a human tragedy - Nobita Nobita took out the [automatic medical kit] when he saw this, and after automatically diagnosing these infected people, he used the syringe inside to inject everyone After one injection, these patients were pleasantly surprised to find that they no longer vomited blood, their legs were no longer weak, their heads were no longer dizzy, and they could walk up to the fifth floor without difficulty... In short, the medicine cured the disease, and they recovered immediately after one injection. !
In this regard, those infected people who escaped death were certainly overjoyed, and Soichiro Takagi even saw the extraordinary significance contained in it!
——Since the outbreak of the zombie craze, why has the global human society been retreating and falling apart in just a few dozen hours?
Why are governments with powerful armies and countless weapons helpless in the face of disasters until the country falls?
The key to the above problem has never been how much terrifying combat power the zombies have - as the spirit of all things, modern humans are not even afraid of top beasts such as lions, tigers and polar bears, but regard shark fins, bear paws and tiger whips as delicacies. It's delicious, and even when you encounter a dinosaur, you won't necessarily flinch. On the contrary, you will most likely be greeted by a hunter. How could you be so scared by a few putrid moving corpses that you would lie down?
The real trouble lies in the rapid death toll of zombie infection and the incurability of cure - this is the root cause of the instant collapse of societies in various countries.
On the other hand, if there are specific drugs for the disease, then the zombie craze that could have destroyed the world will become an ordinary epidemic. With the experience and common sense accumulated by modern humans in dealing with various plagues for thousands of years, we can definitely come up with a hundred or a thousand ways to save the world!
The only trouble is that this "golden key" that can solve the current crisis for all mankind is in the hands of a group of visitors from another world... Although I grew up in Japan, the world's largest animation country, for this kind of fantasy novel-like The setting is still a bit difficult for Soichiro Takagi to accept.
Well, okay, for Doraemon, who is the national idol of Japan, and his four elementary school friends, although Soichiro Takagi feels a little bit mentally broken, he can still treat it relatively rationally. But the remaining *** people - since the slogan of "Down with Chinese imperialism" has become louder and louder, the real upper-class right-wing elements in Japan have stopped shouting "China people" - he feels A little bit awkward.
Of course, it's just a little awkward - as a leader, he has long passed the age where he can do things based solely on his personal likes and dislikes.
Therefore, after chatting for a while, Soichiro Takagi asked a sensitive question: "...With all due respect, Wang Qiujun from China, before we talk about business, could you please answer one of my questions? Question - What do you think of the right-wing faction in Japan? ”
