He looked at the lights that lit up as the night fell. As he listened to the noise in the house, Yamaguchi Naoya’s face that was facing the night sky revealed a trace of vulnerability and a trace of loneliness.
A few days ago, he was still a flower that his grandfather had raised in his greenhouse.
Although he had been raised by his grandfather, his grandfather had protected him very well. His grandfather had always felt that he was still young and was not old enough to come into contact with the dark side. Therefore, his grandfather had taught him everything that he thought was useful to him, but he had never brought him along to allow him to see the dark side with his own eyes.
Therefore, he was the young master of the Yamaguchi-gumi, but he still retained his innocence.
However, from the moment his grandfather fell, his innocence had never returned. He had to face the reality. He had to face the side that his grandfather didn’t want him to touch.
And after his grandfather fell, he had been pretending to be strong, shouldering everything that his grandfather left behind, not letting the things that his grandfather left behind be taken away by others.
However, in these few short days, his body and mind were so tired that he often found it hard to breathe at night.
During these few days, he saw the bright smile that accompanied him growing up more and more in his sleep.
“Boss, the car is here. Should we go back, or?” The military advisor that Yamaguchi Takagi had left for his grandson had changed his attitude towards him after seeing Yamaguchi’s transformation and growth. That was why Yamaguchi Naoya didn’t leave him behind and kept him by his side.
“Let’s go back.” He had settled most of today’s matters, so he needed to go back and have a good rest. He still had to continue fighting with Kazuo Watanabe.
Yamaguchi Naoya was really tired. After getting into the car, he leaned against the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and closed his eyes.
“No, this isn’t the way back to the Yamaguchi-gumi,” the military advisor sitting in the front passenger seat said warily as he looked at the road that was different from usual.
Yamaguchi Naoya heard the military advisor’s words and opened his eyes warily. Then, he became alert.
The driver seemed to have not heard the military advisor’s words. He did not even turn his head and continued driving. The scenery outside the car window became more and more desolate.
The military advisor, who thought that something was wrong, reached out to grab the steering wheel from the driver. “Stop the car.” The military advisor tried to make the driver stop the car, but under the military advisor’s interference, the driver drove unsteadily, he had no intention of stopping the car.
Yamaguchi Naoya drew his gun and pointed it at the driver. “Stop the car, or I’ll shoot.”
However, the driver did not seem to hear his words at all. Instead, he stepped on the accelerator and sped up.
He did not know what the driver was planning to do and where he was taking them. However, he knew that the driver was up to no good. He knew that if the driver succeeded, things would not end up well.
With that thought, he took a deep breath and pulled the trigger. With a gunshot, the driver fell to the ground. It was too late. At that moment, the military advisor’s hand was on the steering wheel, preventing the car from losing control.
The car slowly came to a stop.
This was the first time he had killed someone. His hands were shaking, and he couldn’t even hold a gun. Large beads of sweat dripped down his forehead. However, he didn’t regret it. He didn’t regret not firing the gun.
He knew that reality was cruel. Today, either the driver died or he and the advisor died.
