Chapter 231 Farewell to President Takiya!
When Zhang Hao and his friends came downstairs, all the brothers from the Chunshang Club had gathered.
Standing on the far right is Kenichi, and behind him are the thugs in suits standing straight, the elites under Kenichi.
To the left are Xiong Hao and others, followed by other members of the Chunshang Society.
Some family members of the Chunshanghui members were watching nearby, with concerned expressions on their faces. They had obviously heard some rumors, and the most important one was that the news that the guard team had been wiped out had spread throughout the city.
Zhang Hao walked up to the crowd, stood in front of them , and cleared his throat.
"Brothers, time is running out. I'll make it short. The guards were completely wiped out. If the Tanaka Group takes action next, our Chunshang Club will be the biggest obstacle. They will definitely target us!"
Zhang Hao stopped and looked at Takiya Harukami, who motioned for him to continue.
Zhang Hao nodded and continued: "So I'm going to evacuate Shinjuku!"
There was an immediate buzz of discussion off the field, and Zhang Hao signaled for everyone to be quiet.
He said: "I know that many of my brothers have lived in Shinjuku Itabashi for generations, and it is unrealistic to ask you to leave, so I respect your decision!"
After Zhang Hao finished speaking, Jianyi, Xiong Hao and others still stood there motionless.
The young man who had just gotten married raised his hand cautiously and said softly, "President, my mother-in-law and father-in-law are in Shinjuku District and cannot evacuate with you..."
Zhang Hao smiled and nodded, then said to Jiu Meizi, "Write down the names of those who are going to stay."
Kumiko nodded and took out her cell phone to operate it.
With someone taking the lead, more and more people stood up. Although they were extremely reluctant, they still stammered and expressed their thoughts, and were determined to stay in Shinjuku District.
From beginning to end, only the black-suited elite behind Kenichi had a blank expression.
Finally, Jiu Meizi walked up to Zhang Hao and whispered, "About 6 out of 10 people are ready to stay." He handed the phone to Zhang Hao, "Here is the statistical list."
The brothers below were all looking at Zhang Hao. They were convinced of Zhang Hao's tenure as the new chairman of the Chunshang Club. The group who had just expressed their intention to stay and not evacuate with Zhang Hao looked as if they were sorry.
Zhang Hao smiled in response and said, "Brothers, I respect your choice." Then he looked at Takiya Harukami.
Takitani Harukami stood up from his wheelchair and tapped the ground lightly with his crutches, and the scene instantly became quiet.
It seems that the old president's credibility is much higher than Zhang Hao's. After all, he is the only founder of the Spring Association.
Takiya Harukami spoke gently, completely different from the calm but slightly intimidating look he had when he was the president. Now he looked more like an elder who was enjoying his old age.
"Many of you have been with me for almost 20 to 30 years. Over the years, I have tried my best to conduct business in a formal way for the Spring Festival Club, so many of you have your own businesses. Although I am reluctant to let you stay, I am also relieved."
The people below shouted one after another: "It is because you, Boss Takiya, set the stage for us that we have this opportunity."
"Yeah, if I hadn't joined the Harukami Society, I would have died in a gang street fight!"
Takitani Harukami nodded in greeting.
"I appreciate your kindness, but the Tanaka Group is doing evil things right now. If the Harukami Association continues to exist, I'm afraid it will be the first to suffer a catastrophic disaster. So Chairman Zhang plans to withdraw from Shinjuku District, and I support it!"
After hearing what Takiya Harukami said, those who were planning to stay lowered their heads. Even Boss Takiya was preparing to withdraw from Shinjuku District, which made them feel that they had betrayed the Harukami Society and Takiya Harukami.
Takiya Harukami waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't think too much, brothers. I just asked Meiko to compile a list of people who want to stay. I roughly looked at it and found that as many as half of them..."
Takiya Harukami glanced at everyone, as if he was making a difficult decision.
After Takiya Harukami was silent for half a minute, everyone fell silent, waiting for the old president's next words.
Takiya Harukami finally made a decision and spoke slowly.
"So I'm going to disband the Harujo Association!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was in an uproar, especially those brothers who were preparing to evacuate Shinjuku District were even more anxious. Once the Harukami Club was disbanded, what would they do...
Takiya Harukami calmed the situation with his palms down.
"If I don't disband the Harujo Association, if the Tanaka Group takes action, they will still be the first to target the Harujo Association. Then, those of you who plan to stay will probably be in trouble!"
Those people thought about it and felt that what Takiya Harukami said made sense. As the saying goes, the monk can run away, but the temple cannot. As long as the Harukami-kai's sign is still there, the Tanaka Group will not give up!
Takiya Harukami said: "Only if I personally disband the Harukami Association and make it public, I think that old guy Tanaka Kame will be truly relieved and will not cause trouble to you guys anymore!"
Those brothers who were willing to evacuate together stood up and said, "President, what about us? Don't you want us anymore?"
Takiya Harukami looked at this group of people. He knew in his heart that most of those who were willing to follow him had no family. The only people who truly regarded the Harukami Club as their home were the most loyal to him!
He said: "From the moment you joined the Harukami Club, you are my family of Takiya Harukami. Although the Harukami Club is disbanded today, the connection and feelings between us will not be interrupted. As for the brothers who are willing to evacuate together, President Zhang will make arrangements, so you don't have to worry."
After hearing what Takiya Harukami said, the group of people all looked at Zhang Hao again.
Zhang Hao said: "Brothers who are willing to evacuate together, I have already communicated with Bu Liangren. He will go to Tokyo to help us smooth out the relationship and may be incorporated into the Tokyo police system!"
Hearing what Zhang Hao said, the crowd was excited! What! Police system! They, who were involved in gangs, could become police officers one day!
Zhang Hao still explained: "It's just the police system. It's not certain whether there is a system or not! It may just be auxiliary police, just like these people you help maintain the law and order in Shinjuku District!"
The brothers below don’t care about all these things. Whether there is a position or not, it is a serious job. They didn’t expect that President Zhang would find such a good job for them!
Seeing the satisfied look of his brothers, Zhang Hao also smiled. Of course, he knew that Bu Liangren didn't have such a big face, and he had to add the huge wealth of the Chunshang Club! But he didn't think it was necessary to tell them!
Takiya Harukami finally said: "Because we don't know when the Tanaka Group will take action, whether you are staying or evacuating together, you can prepare now. As for the news of the disbandment of the Harukami Association, I will arrange for someone to announce it!"
After saying that, Takiya Harukami slowly sat down and let Kumiko push him back to the room.
Kumiko pushed her father and turned away.
The crowd at the back, which had been noisy just now, suddenly became quiet, and a few seconds later, everyone shouted in unison!
"Farewell, President!"
"Farewell, President!"
Jiu Meizi saw that her father's eyes were slightly moist...
