POV Nemuri

"Your office is quite impressive, Miss Kayama

" Gao said with an accent. I expected nothing more… even though she was an old hag she knew how to appreciate art. Good for her…

"Thanks for the compliment… so, what can I do for you, Madame Gao?

" I said with a brilliant smile on my face. I hated to call her Madame but small sacrifices like this must be made for business.

"Miss Kayama, from your name can I assume that you are of Japanese ancestry?

" Gao asked with a small smile on her face… oh… I have seen this smile a lot of times. The best example would be Ol Dumbles… he smiled like this when he pulled that caring grandfatherly act.

Gao seems to be doing the same, well, I shouldn't have expected anything less from an ancient hag like that. But I had to keep up the act… can't let her know. So, as soon as I heard her question I slightly frowned.

"Yes, I am from a Japanese family

" I said in a slightly defensive tone.

"I don't understand what does that have anything to do with business?

" I said and Gao's smiled widened slightly and she smiled at me caringly.

"You misunderstand me, child. I didn't mean any offense… I was just curious. Sometimes old people like us get slightly curious

" Gao finished and looked at me with care-filled eyes.

Sure, boomer, two can play the game…

"Sorry, I also reacted impulsively

" I said sounding really regretful, and nodded at her respectfully and used Legilimency to probe her slightly… I wanted to check if she had any kind of special mental barriers or not…

Surprise, surprise… she doesn't have any kind of special mental barriers. Now, that I confirmed that she only had her normal barriers which every human did, I decided to use passive Legilimency on her. Can't have the ancient hag swindling me.

"Of course, child. It wasn't anything major

" Gao said in a dismissive manner and smiled. Since I was reading her thoughts I knew that was all an act and she was happy that her act was working.

"So, Madame Gao, what can I do for you?

" I asked her once again but this time I kept my voice softer and started to release a colorless and odorless scent. This scent will loosen her inhibitions and make her drop her guard… she would speak more openly. I kept the effect mild so that she won't notice it…

"Child, I wanted to propose a business venture along with your company… the Kayama Industries currently own all the major import and export companies… I would like to strike a business deal with you regarding those services

" Gao said smoothly… tsk...!! Nice… nice… at first act like a caring grandma and then ask them to smuggle drugs into the country.

Well, I honestly don't give a flying ** what kind of harm drugs can do… nor do I care that it ruins families but what I do care about are children… this isn't something unknown that most drug addicts are introduced to drugs even before they turn 18.

No matter how much I change… I can't bring myself to hate children. Before everything, I am a teacher. I might have stopped teaching some decades ago but that doesn't mean that I have started hating children.

If her business would have been anything like weapon smuggling or prostitute management, only adult prostitutes though, then I would have happily helped her with it.

Well, I would have helped her at the beginning and then slowly acquire the business for my own. After all, Gao is really old and I would have loved to send her to the next great adventure. But her drug business needs to stop…

I am not a naïve fool that I would think that killing Gao would stop this business… as soon as Gao's business disappears someone new will pop up. Honestly, people are stupid and they would never stop buying drugs… if the old seller is not available then they would find a new seller.

So, what I can do mostly is manage and monopolize the market. If I take over Gao's business then I could at least stop drugs being sold to minors. It will be hard but let's see what can be done… I haven't taken over anything yet.

"Madame Gao, would you mind if I think about this? I need to check everything… I just can't sign a deal without checking everything

" I said hurriedly, it would be nice to show her that I hate rejecting her idea but my hands are tied.

"Yes… yes, of course

" Gao said in a slightly disappointed tone but her smile returned afterward. Though she wasn't actually disappointed in the truth. She was rather happy that I could hold my own if we started a business venture together.

"Child, it has come to my attention that you recently became the major shareholder of Rand Enterprises. I wanted to know what you plan to do with that company

" Gao asked me sincerely.

"I haven't planned anything yet but I didn't know that you also own a part of the company?

" I asked her curiously. Oh, yes, I obviously knew what she did there but I needed to hear it from her so that I can finally meet with her subordinates who were my target.

From what I know about Gao… there is a chance that she might break out of Imperius using her Chi powers or whatever they are but her subordinates won't be that lucky. I am not sure if Gao could break out of my Imperius or not but I don't want to take a chance with her… I can't have her finding out what I am doing.

Then I would have to use brute force and even though I have a lot of raw power I hate using brute strength from the get-go… it kind of goes against my principles. First, manipulate, then if manipulation fails then try subterfuge, if subterfuge also fails then try assassination, most of the time I get things done with assassination…

Till now, I didn't have to use Brute Strength… well, the Riddle Graveyard doesn't count. I was helping Reo to off scum on Earth. So, I am going to takeover Gao's business through her underlings and when the time comes I will off Gao…

Well, not off Gao after all she can be resurrected by the other members of Hand so I will Obliviate the hell out of her so even if she would be resurrected she would think of herself as a newborn baby. Yeah… that would work nicely.

"No… I am not a Board Member. We are just involved in a particular business venture

" Gao said and smiled, ah looks like the scent has filled her brain up to the brim.

Most of her thoughts were kind of fuzzy now, but she definitely thought that I was trustworthy and she could tell me things which she would have never told anyone. Till now, she hasn't doubted that anything is going wrong with her brain. She was thinking that I have brought her whole act of being a caring grandma.

"Ah… sure, you can continue the business. I won't intervene there but I would like to meet some of your associates if you don't mind

" I said and my smile widened when I noticed that Gao nodded her head.

"Of course… of course, after all, from now on you are the owner of Rand Enterprises

" Gao said with a smile and nodded her head once again like any other granda. Yup… hook, line, and sinker… the ancient hag took the bait.

For the last time, I checked her thoughts and found that she was rather happy with herself thinking that her plan worked and it won't be long before she can get me under her thumb. Hehe… Majestic Fox 1 and Ancient Hag 0.

After that, I talked with Gao some more and she finally left. I decided to walk her out and found that two guards were waiting for her… after two quick waves both of them were under Imperius and my first order for them was to stay serving Gao as they have done till now.

"I am going to call it a day…

" I said to the receptionist, she nodded her head and I decided to walk to the parking lot today for a change. I arrived in the parking lot and entered my car, with a huge smile plastered on my face I drove back to Knox.

After I parked my car in Knox I Flash Stepped to our house in Elysium and found that Reo was eating Ice Cream on the couch while watching TV with Momo. I lunged into Reo's arms and kissed him hungrily…

"Get off you horny fox!!

" Momo shouted but I didn't back out.

"Oh, yes, I have been a bad fox. You must punish me

" I moaned while staring into Reo's eyes.

"So, what got you so excited?

" Reo asked me with a smile and pulled me into his lap, I leaned on his chest and sighed in content.

"Must have been something really nice

" Momo said and leaned on Reo's right shoulder and she started to run her fingers through his hair.

"Oh, yes, it was… let me tell you…

" I said and started to tell them what has happened since morning. First I told them about the Detectives and the FBI Agents and then I told them about Madame Gao and my plans for her.

"If you need you can always call me

" Reo said with a smirk.

"Oh, yes, but first let me go forward with this plan… if something goes awry then you are the first person I am going to call

" I purred.

"So, Reo what do say? Should we accept Nemuri's offer and punish her for being a bad fox?

" Momo asked and licked his ear. Reo shivered in excitement…

I was already grinding my hips in his lap, I could also feel his excitement poking me. Nothing could be better than this… manipulate people throughout the day and then getting **ed silly by Reo's man meat. Ah… I couldn't ask for anything more…

But suddenly Reo's phone started to ring… all three of us groaned in annoyance. Reo waved his hand and his phone flew into his hand. It was Nat… even though I wasn't happy with it but I could understand that it might be something important. Reo accepted the call.

'Reo, something has happened with Logan, he went nuts and started attacking everyone. Eric and Emma were able to put him down… quickly come to the infirmary' that is what Nat said and cut the call.

All three of us looked at each other and all three of us said the same thing at the same time…

"The Fuck!!??

"
