Chapter 1015: Chapter 679: All that’s ever wanted is the truth (Part Six)

It was indeed as clean as the rumors suggested, but Mu Lin couldn’t bring herself to like this place; perhaps she had listened to too many of Jing Grandfather’s stories, along with her own recent experiences.

There was really no way she could; she had already heard and seen their exceedingly perverted deeds. How could she like them? But it’s undeniable that quite a few people did like coming here, because there were not a few who spoke the same language as Mu Lin.

This was the first destination for Mu Lin and Jing Chen after their arrival.

Otani Masao looked at the outstanding man and woman before him, the smile on his face obvious.

"I’m very happy to represent everyone in welcoming the two of you," although he couldn’t be sure whether the couple in front of him were friends or foes.

However, Mu Lin merely glanced at him indifferently, "Let’s skip the formalities in front of us. Both my husband and I are straightforward people. It’s best to speak plainly." It was too superficial, and uncomfortable to listen to.

The husband and wife duo.

Jing Grandfather said he liked this title.

Mu Lin: Grandfather, your focus seems a bit off.

"Alright," Otani Masao looked at Jing Chen, who had an adoring look on his face, smiled, and nodded.

Women didn’t hold much status, although he would sometimes listen to his wife’s opinions. Still, he couldn’t do like Jing Chen, handing over all authority to a woman, letting her take full charge while he himself didn’t utter a word.

It wasn’t that he looked down on women; it was just the norm. Men were responsible for making money and providing for the family, while women managed the household.

Otani Masao had originally thought Mu Lin would be the submissive type of woman but was surprised to realize he might have judged a book by its cover.

There’s an old saying, "Appearances can be deceiving, and the sea can’t be measured," which must be about the girl before him.

After a brief pause, Otani Masao led Mu Lin and her companion to the reception area couch to sit down, and looked at them, "I wonder, what is the purpose of your secret visit here to see me?"

In reality, it was his computer that had been hacked, and then he received an invitation email. Although it was a clandestine visit, Mu Lin and Jing Chen didn’t conceal their identities in front of him.

After all, if they were to cooperate, of course, they wouldn’t hide.

Mu Lin looked at him, "I think Otani has already seen our message, so you should have looked at the ’good’ stuff we sent you, right?" They were here to collect a debt this time.

Yet, after listening to Mu Lin, the other party just smiled elegantly, "Then I believe, you should also know that this matter has nothing to do with us." So they must have approached the wrong person.

Indeed, when he saw that material, Otani Masao was also shocked, not expecting that even now, the issue from decades ago that had been denounced by many hadn’t been abandoned, and moreover, even moving the base to... That was exceptionally bold.

"Indeed, it has nothing to do with you. If it did, we wouldn’t be looking for you," Mu Lin lifted the corners of her lips into a smile, that faint curve dazzled the eye for a moment, and Otani Masao felt a flicker of astonishment in his heart, but the next moment he experienced a cold breeze that made him shiver involuntarily.

Looking up, he saw Jing Chen’s unwavering icy gaze and subconsciously let out an awkward cough.

It was indeed embarrassing to have been caught staring at someone else’s wife, even if it was just for a moment.

Sitting in his position, Otani Masao felt he had seen many beauties, but indeed, he had never encountered someone like Mu Lin — a beauty that could eclipse the moon and shame the flowers, and moreover, a formidable one.

After thinking for a long time, the only phrase that came to Otani Masao’s mind was ’eclipsing the moon and shaming the flowers.’

Mu Lin turned her head to look at Jing Chen with a helpless smile.

Her husband was jealous, even of this.

He chuckled to cover up his earlier embarrassment, looking at Mu Lin, "What would Mrs. Jing like me to do?" He couldn’t figure out what he could do for them. Why were Mu Lin and her companion seeking him, laying everything out in front of him? What was their purpose?

"I truly do enjoy working with smart people." Mu Lin found herself impressed by Otani Masao’s straightforwardness.

"I hope this will be my honor." The struggle between the left and the right has persisted for many years; in fact, even after Otani Masao had obtained the data, he was taking a gamble, yet he didn’t know what he was gambling on.

Mu Lin continued, "I can help you control Anu Toji, and there’s only one thing you need to do."

"What is it?" Otani Masao immediately asked.

"Announce to all the media the atrocities committed by a certain troop seventy-two years ago. I believe you know that our people have been waiting for your apology," Mu Lin’s gaze turned cold, "but instead, you made us wait for yet another human experiment!"

Then, hearing Mu Lin’s words, Otani Masao hesitated, "You should know that it’s not just a matter of my will to be able to do it."

"I believe that if you want to do it, there’s nothing you can’t do; Otani, you should feel fortunate that I’m not forcing you to apologize, but just to make it public."

"What we’ve always wanted is nothing but the truth." And this truth, for all the people, is tantamount to an apology; it’s something the higher-ups dare not admit, dare not record in history. She wanted them to confess it themselves.

To be honest, Mu Lin held in utter contempt this cowardly behavior of doing things and then not owning up to them.

Otani Masao’s face showed difficulty, as if he was hesitating.

"This is your only chance." The only chance to bring the right down beneath your feet—it all depends on whether he dares to cooperate with her or not. "Actually, some things can just be blamed on the right, can’t they? When the time comes, your supporters will only increase."

"Actually, this is a good thing." Mu Lin looked at him indifferently, "I believe you are different from Anu Toji; moreover, even if you don’t want to, at most I will just find another way to get what I want."

The left is, after all, a representative of benevolence; do not let her down.

"Your presence here today, does it represent your intentions?" For some reason, the other side suddenly asked this question.

"That depends on how you want to interpret it, Otani," Mu Lin neither confirmed nor denied; sometimes, this approach was best, a tactic quite favored by many.

Without speaking, Mu Lin calmly looked at Otani Masao, leaning back slightly with a relaxed and languid posture.

Time fell silent, as if a long while had passed, and finally, just as Mu Lin was about to yawn from the wait, the other side had finished contemplating.

"I agree," Otani Masao said earnestly to Mu Lin, "as long as you can do what you’ve declared, then I will agree. However, I cannot be the one to carry this out in my name, but I will arrange for someone under me to do so." It was the only requirement he could agree to.

Honestly, controlling Anu Toji would mean that within the entire R Country, he would no longer be controlled by others and could act according to the dreams in his own heart. The temptation was too great; he really found it hard to refuse.

The Anu Toji that Mu Lin referred to was none other than the highest decision-maker on the right, the person with the most power on the right.

How could Otani Masao not be tempted! And he was also curious about how exactly Mu Lin and Jing Chen were going to control—Anu Toji.

At this moment, Otani Masao did not realize that he had already fallen into a pit that Mu Lin had specifically dug for him, a pit that wasn’t very deep but was quite solid.

"Working with a smart person is simple!" Mu Lin slowly stood up and offered her hand to Otani Masao, "I hope we have a pleasant cooperation."

Well, her first step seemed to be settled; of course, what comes next would be—the next step!

Looking at Mu Lin’s exquisite hand, as delicate as a piece of art, Otani Masao reached out his hand, but the next moment, what he held was a pair of hands with a few calluses, yet exuding a convincing strength.

He lifted his eyes and saw the man in front of him, Jing Chen, and behind him, Mu Lin, whom he had protected.

Mu Lin looked at Otani Masao and said with a smile, "Actually, shaking hands with our master is the same; we are pleased to cooperate."

"Pleased to cooperate."

It looked like Jing Chen from the renowned Jing family was indeed an extreme—the biggest jar of vinegar.
