Her words were so eloquent and logical that even Gillespie, standing nearby, was somewhat bewildered, as if Nami truly were a shrewd and calculating financial manager.
Zhou Ye finally spoke.
"So you mean you don't plan to touch a single penny of those 10 billion-dollar gold and jewelry?"
Nami immediately put on a pitiful expression.
"No, it's just that it takes time."
Zhou Ye ignored her performance and walked straight outside.
"gone."
Nami quickly followed.
Saeko Busujima nodded slightly to the three people who remained, and then followed them out.
I hailed a taxi when I got to the street.
The numbers on the neon-lit taxi meters were jumping rapidly.
Nami rested her chin on her hand, watching the street scene rushing past the window, then glanced at the ever-increasing sum of money.
"Boss, are we experiencing life like this?"
"Or is it that you suddenly want to make a significant contribution to Japan's GDP?"
Zhou Ye sat in the passenger seat, looking completely at ease.
"Just for convenience."
He pointed to an inconspicuous ramen shop on the street corner.
"That tonkotsu ramen is pretty good; I used to come here occasionally."
Saeko Busujima sat quietly in the back seat, her sharp gaze sweeping across the pedestrians and buildings outside the car window, feeling the pulse of the city.
She had little concept of money, but was slightly curious about Zhou Ye's mention of "the past".
The taxi slowly came to a stop outside the gates of Komao Academy.
It was peak time for students to go to school, and students in various school uniforms walked towards the school gate in twos and threes.
The car door opens.
Zhou Ye got off the bus first, dressed in a school uniform.
Next up was Nami, who was wearing her school uniform today. Her tight-fitting top accentuated her amazing curves, and her long, straight legs were visible beneath her short skirt. She wore a nonchalant smile on her face.
Finally, there was Saeko Busujima. She had changed into a Kuoh Academy uniform, with her long hair tied back. Even so, her dignified aura was hard to conceal.
The trio instantly attracted the attention of all the students around them.
Whispers came like a tidal wave.
"Hey, isn't that Zhou Ye from the third grade?"
"Who are those two women next to him? They're so pretty, especially the one with orange hair, she has such a great figure!"
"The other one with long, straight black hair also has a strong presence; she seems like someone you shouldn't mess with."
"Why did they come to school together? Are they transfer students?"
Several girls covered their mouths, but their eyes were fixed on Nami and Saeko Busujima.
Some of the boys were so engrossed in watching that one of them accidentally bumped into his companion.
Zhou Ye ignored these discussions, as if he were uninvolved.
He determined the direction and walked straight towards the teaching building.
Nami looked around at the students casting all sorts of glances with great interest, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Boss, looks like we're popular."
Saeko Busujima frowned slightly; she wasn't used to being stared at like a rare animal.
Zhou Ye did not turn around.
Asking for flowers
"Find someone."
His goal is clear.
He walked through several corridors and stopped at the door of a classroom.
Class 2B
He knocked on the open classroom door.
The noise in the classroom suddenly stopped, and everyone's eyes were focused on the doorway.
A handsome blond boy was sitting by the window, holding a book in his hands. Noticing the movement at the door, he looked up and cast a gentle gaze over.
It was Kiba Yuto.
Upon seeing Zhou Ye, Kiba Yuto gave a polite smile, but then his gaze fell on Nami and Saeko Busujima behind Zhou Ye, his smile carrying a subtle hint of scrutiny.
Zhou Ye spoke directly.
"Kiba-kun, I need to talk to you about something."
Kiba Yuto closed the book, stood up, and slowly walked over.
"Good morning, Zhou Yejun."
His voice was as gentle as a spring breeze.
"Who are these two?"
He looked at Nami and Saeko Busujima, his gaze carrying just the right amount of question.
"my friend."
Zhou Ye's words were concise and to the point.
"I want to see Rias Gremory, now."
His tone was calm, yet carried an uncompromising air.
Kiba Yuto's smile faltered slightly.
He sized up Zhou Ye, then glanced at the two women with very different auras behind him.
"Minister Rias... should be in the club room of the old school building right now."
Kiba Yuto pondered for a moment.
"Does Zhou Yejun have something urgent to discuss with the minister?"
Nami chimed in from the side, her voice sweet and cloying.
"Of course it's urgent, otherwise would our boss have come all this way himself, handsome?"
She winked at Kiba Yuto.
A barely perceptible blush rose on Kiba Yuto's cheeks, but he quickly regained his composure.
Saeko Busujima remained silent, but her sharp eyes never left Yuto Kiba. It was a swordsman's instinct—his swordsmanship!
Zhou Ye looked at Kiba Yuto.
"There are some things that need to be explained to her face to face."
His deep gaze made it impossible for Kiba Yuto to refuse him easily.
Yuto Kiba thought for a moment.
"Alright, I can take you there."
"However, the minister is currently very busy."
Zhou Ye nodded.
"It doesn't matter."
Kiba Yuto smiled apologetically at the students in the classroom, then led Zhou Ye and the other two out of the classroom.
Kiba Yuto, who was walking ahead, was actually full of doubts.
He had some impression of Zhou Ye; he was Zhu Nai's childhood sweetheart.
However, Zhou Ye is usually quite low-key at school and has almost no presence.
Today, they suddenly showed up at my door with two powerful women, specifically asking to see Rias. There must be more to this than meets the eye.
Especially those two women, one alluring and charming, with subtle energy fluctuations, and the other like a drawn sword, its sharpness fully revealed.
They are no ordinary people.
"Zhou Yejun, these two friends of yours don't seem to be students of Kuoh Academy?"
Yuto Kiba tried to probe indirectly.
"Yes, they just arrived at Kuoh Academy and are planning to transfer here."
Zhou Ye casually replied.
Nami replied with a grin.
"We've come to join our boss."
"I might need Kiba's help in the future."
Kiba Yuto responded politely.
"You're welcome."
He was secretly on guard.
Zhu Nai's childhood friend suddenly brought two powerful women of unknown identity, which made him think a lot.
Soon, the group arrived at the old school building.
Unlike the new and bright main school building, the old school building appeared somewhat gloomy and exuded an old-fashioned atmosphere.
Yuto Kiba stopped in front of an inconspicuous door.
