Hiro was also startled for a moment, then laughed heartily, "Our Little Sister is here too! Oh, the construction site really can't do without you, Songzi. Those new young brothers can't even carry ten bricks at once."
Yuna chuckled, "That's right, I can carry 15 bricks at once. I'm the strongest in our group."
Haruko listened to the two of them acting in concert and finally couldn't help but interject, "Brother, if one brick is 5 centimeters thick, 15 bricks stacked up would be half as tall as me. You carried them all at once with one hand?"
"Uh..." Yuna was speechless for a moment and said awkwardly, "We were talking about the time when your brother was still full of vigor. Brother isn't educated, he just has a lot of strength."
Haruko sighed helplessly and said sweetly into the phone, "I'm Haruko. Thank you, Hiro, for taking care of my brother. He's quite simple-minded and has always caused you trouble, Hiro."
Dutiful, sensible, and soft.
Regardless of what he did, the words of thanks and concern were very sincere.
Hiro was also stunned for a while after hearing this, and then sighed with emotion, "Songzi, you must cherish a sister like this. If I hadn't made mistakes back then, my daughter should be in junior high school now, the same age as our sister."
Yuna gave a simple laugh, "Hiro, you've been so good to me, we're brothers. Didn't my sister call you Hiro? She's our Little Sister together."
Hiro's hearty voice sounded again, "Alright, let's not dwell on the past, you two big men. What's up? Why did you call me?"
"It's like this, Hiro." Yuna awkwardly explained what happened, "So... I just wanted to ask, how much spare money does Big Brother have..."
Asking Big Brother for ten million yuan was something only a straightforward boy like Yuna could say.
If Big Brother had even a hint of suspicion or distrust towards him, their relationship would be over.
No matter how you looked at it, it seemed like he was going to abscond with the money.
For an ordinary gang involved in underground activities, ten million was definitely not a small amount.
Even Haruko thought Brother was impulsive.
With their relationship becoming this strained, how could he continue in the gang?
However, Hiro just laughed heartily, "I was wondering why the Yamato Family's forces and industries on Shibuya City's side were all in chaos. Turns out it was you, kid."
"Well done!" Hiro's voice was excited, "Originally, the brothers were being obstructed, but about a week ago, for some reason, the Yamato Family's forces hastily tried to pull out."
"We can't get ten million, but five million is possible."
Yuna was very moved by this, "Five million is enough! Thank you, Hiro. I'll figure out a way for the remaining five million!"
"How can you say that? Last time I checked the organization where you paid for our Little Sister's medical expenses, I found out they were indeed scammers. Brother took the time to go to your hometown and bust them, and I helped you recover 5 million. This money added up is just right."
Brother was scammed out of 5 million?
Haruko looked puzzled but didn't say anything.
She just heard Hiro continue, "Actually, Songzi, even if you hadn't called, I was going to look for you. Through the Si family's connection, Second Young Master Ya found me and said we could cooperate."
"This ten million will be considered borrowed from Brother as a stepping stone to Second Young Master Ya. When Brother swallows up all of the Yamato Family's industries in Shibuya City, I'll give you double the money back!"
Surprise turned into pleasant surprise.
If this ten million had been given directly to Sento, Haruko would have felt terrible no matter what.
Now, giving it to Hiro as startup capital to connect with Second Young Master Ya, and then sending Brother back to Shibuya City, with Hiro's ability, he could definitely establish a firm foothold in Shibuya City.
Brother simultaneously cultivating his own forces is equivalent to my, Haruko's, forces!
Maybe one day, if her body double's fake death plan succeeds, she can even run off to Shibuya City, let Ichiko grow freely for a few months, and then make a grand return.
Haruko immediately became excited.
Just as she expected, Hiro indeed continued, "But Songzi, you might need to come back quickly. There aren't many people Brother can fully trust here, and you're one of them!"
Hearing this, Yuna's blood immediately boiled, and he directly shouted, "No problem, Hiro! I'll go back tomorrow!"
"Hahaha, no need to be so anxious. Stay and keep your Little Sister company for two more days."
Haruko's eyes darted around, and she said sweetly to Hiro, "Hiro, it's 'our family's' Little Sister~"
