Create MYGO second creation, but make them cry

After that acquisition, this guy started to make a name for himself, practically riding on Kumamoto and Kumamoto's coattails to climb the ladder.

"It's been years, yet you seem to know me inside and out," Uncle Kumamoto said with a smile.

Immediately, a hint of gloom appeared on Endo's face. Just then, the other members of the agricultural cooperative gradually arrived, and Endo left with a smug look on his face.

Uncle Kumamoto also noticed that not far from Katsutoshi Endo, there was an elderly man in a tailcoat standing there calmly, whose demeanor seemed quite different from that of the somewhat arrogant members of the agricultural cooperative.

Then, the old man met his gaze.

At that moment, Katsutoshi Endo spoke up, saying that because transportation costs had increased in the past two years, the agricultural cooperatives needed to renegotiate the purchase price of Ikeda rice.

"Damn it! Our rice sells so well elsewhere, and you still want to lower the price!"

"We've only had a few years of peace, why are you always like this?"

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean? Transportation costs are so high now, plus storage costs, the agricultural cooperative is losing money to help you sell your rice, otherwise your rice would just rot on this land!" Endo Katsu shouted unhappily.

"Isn't that because you won't allow other buyers to purchase our rice?!" someone shouted.

"You can't just say things like that. The Agricultural Cooperative wouldn't do something like that. What does it matter to us if other buyers don't come? Okay, enough nonsense. After a meeting, the Agricultural Cooperative decided that for the next five years, the price for purchasing one year's worth of Ikeda rice will be..."

Upon hearing the price, everyone wore expressions of disbelief.

Farmers in Japan don't earn much money to begin with, and if they were to buy at this price, none of them would survive.

Uncle Kumamoto frowned slightly, then said, "This price is exactly the same as the price your agricultural cooperative quoted five years ago. Endo, stop playing these tricks."

At this point, some people belatedly realized what was happening and looked at this pretentious fellow with some resentment.

Endo Katsu laughed and said, "Really? What a coincidence. I know the price is a bit low, but what can we do when times are tough?"

However, I am also from Kumamoto, and in fact, I am classmates with several of you here. I can't bear to see you toiling in the fields all year round without earning a single penny.

Now, there's something important here, or rather, something good for you.

Then, Endo Katsumi signaled to the other members of the agricultural cooperative to distribute the arrest warrants.

When the people of Kumamoto saw the boy in the wanted poster, they couldn't help but show surprised expressions, and some people subconsciously looked at Uncle Kumamoto.

"A major case has recently occurred in the county. The wanted poster lists a juvenile offender involved in theft and human trafficking. The higher-ups are very anxious. If anyone can provide clues about him, or if he has any connection to anyone..."

Endo Katsu made no attempt to hide his glance at the Kumamoto uncle sitting below.

"As a reward, the agricultural cooperative can provide additional subsidies, not only by offering a higher purchase price than this year, but also by awarding the whistleblower a reward of 10 million yen."

Opportunities like this, which are both righteous and profitable, are rare, everyone. I worked really hard to get this for you.

Everyone looked on in astonishment, and Ikeda immediately turned furious: "Damn it, using such methods? Have you forgotten that you're a bear yourself?!"

Katsuaki Endo deliberately said this to everyone, using the promise of profit to induce them to betray Kumamoto.

This is exactly the same tactic used back then, where they compromised on the acquisition price and sacrificed Kumamoto, who was still in the hospital.

"Haha, what's so great about this lousy place? I've always thought how much better it would be if I were born in Tokyo. It's all this wretched place's fault for hindering my development."

"Hey, Kumamoto, I heard your daughter also wants to be a Tokyoite."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Kumamoto, who had remained motionless until now, slowly stood up.

Ikeda exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, Kumamoto."

However, Uncle Kumamoto seemed not to hear him and slowly walked to Endo Katsu's side. Faced with the oppressive presence of the limping middle-aged man in front of him, Endo Katsu's expression became somewhat stiff.

The next moment, Uncle Kumamoto grabbed his collar tightly and lifted Endo Katsu up.

"Eek!" Endo Katsu let out a sound of fear.

"Hey, what are you doing? Put down the vice chairman!" someone from the farmers' association shouted immediately, and then tried to rush over.

"Behave yourself, kid!"

As a result, Ikeda and others from Kumamoto approached the two, and the agricultural cooperative confronted the farmers of Kumamoto, suddenly turning the atmosphere into one of fierce confrontation.

However, Uncle Kumamoto raised his hand, signaling everyone to calm down. He coldly said to Endo Katsumi, whom he had pulled up, "Endo, do you still remember the code of conduct that I told you about back then?"

"You...you...what do you want to do? Don't do anything rash! If anything happens to me, you'll all be eating dirt!" Endo Katsu shouted in a trembling voice.

“If someone helps the Xiong people, the Xiong people will help him in return. This is the Xiong people’s morality, and it is also the reason why we can make a living on this barren land.”

After saying that, Yutenji Kumamoto put Endo Katsu down and turned to leave.

Looking at that limping figure, Endo Katsu's expression grew even more ferocious.

"Just you wait, just wait and see, those farmers who are currently protecting you will stab you in the back again this time!"

Hahaha, what kind of morality does a bear have? How stupid!

***

In the hotel early in the morning, when Yutenji Wakana's face contorted slightly as she received a call from her mother, she slammed her hand heavily on the table and shouted in a low voice, "What kind of morality does this bear have? How stupid!"

"What happened, Youtian Temple?" Xiangzi asked.

Yutenji Wakana looked somewhat anxious, but still maintained a calm demeanor towards the two of them, saying, "Wakana, you take them to Oura Risa's wedding. I have some urgent business to attend to and need to go back first."

"Yutenji Ruomai." But before Xiangzi could finish speaking, Ruomai left the room.

Seeing this, Banai chased after her, grabbed her hand, and called out, "Hey, Meowmee."

Meow Dream turned around and said, "Hanami, let's say goodbye here."

After you attend the wedding, you will leave Kumamoto, and I will return to Tokyo.

I wish you and Toyokawa Shoko happiness.

After saying that, Miaomeng gently shook off his hand and left.

I'm sorry, Hanami, yesterday... I actually secretly followed Toyokawa Shoko and... overheard what you were saying in the bathhouse.

Those people are after you and Toyokawa Shoko. If you come back with me, you'll fall into their trap. Even if you manage to escape, it will cost a lot of cat coins. That would take you further and further away from the "happy ending" you mentioned.

So please, absolutely do not go back.

Chapter 58 Banami: Have you forgotten that I'm also a bear?

Although Nyanmu sincerely didn't want the two to go back, she didn't say anything to Banami and Shoko.

But she forgot that her younger sister, Ruohui, was with the two of them.

"Please, Xiaosui, tell us what happened!" Xiangzi pleaded.

Ruo Sui looked troubled. She already knew what was happening in Kumamoto from her classmates, but her older sister had just clearly told her not to tell the two people in front of her.

"I...I don't know either," Ruo Sui said softly.

The two looked at each other, feeling a bit awkward. Just then, the innkeeper opened the door and called out, "Xiaosui, is the agricultural cooperative causing trouble for your people again?"

Ruo Sui couldn't help but widen her eyes as she looked at the hotel owner, who was acquainted with her father.

Banami looked at her and said, "It seems that having too many connections has its downsides. Kosui, please tell us."

In the end, Banami and Shoko learned the whole story.

Yutenji Wakaho packed up her sister's luggage as well and said to the two of them, "I'm sorry, Shoko-neechan, Hanami-kun, I... I have to go back too."

Although... although I'm useless, I can't abandon my father.

But I think there must be more to my sister's reasons for not wanting you to go back.

So please leave here as soon as possible.

After saying that, Ruo Sui also left with her luggage, leaving only the two of them in the room.

"What a brave girl," Xiangzi said in a low voice.

Then, she looked up and asked Banami, "Now, what do we do?"

If we consider our own interests, we should heed Yutenji Wakana's advice and leave now. The Toyokawa family, who were a step too late, will only continue to chase after them and will most likely not continue to make things difficult for the people in Kumamoto or Uncle Kumamoto's family.

but……

"The things I should do, and the things I want to do..." Suddenly, Banami said.

"What?" Xiangzi asked in confusion.

With a calm expression, Banami said, "It's just a line from an anime I watched before."

Now, what the two of them should do is leave Kumamoto, but...

Suddenly, Xiangzi also smiled: "A happy ending, the happy ending you spoke of, Banai, is it just me?"

Upon seeing this, Banami smiled knowingly.

This is probably what they call a soulmate.

***

The next day, the agricultural service station was still bustling with people.

Endo Masaru remained standing on top, while Uncle Kumamoto remained seated below, silent.

The purchase price of Kikuchi rice has not yet been agreed upon by both parties.

For some reason, despite the large number of people, the atmosphere today was strangely eerie and quiet.

Just then, several people in police uniforms walked in. They came to Uncle Kumamoto and said, "Yutenji Kumamoto, someone has reported you for harboring a wanted criminal. Please come with us to the police station."

Endo Katsu, who was originally on top, burst into laughter, clutching his stomach: "You guys don't actually think I'm here to negotiate prices with you, do you?"

I just want you to see with your own eyes the ending of Yutenji Kumamoto.

Yutenji, do you know who came to me yesterday to report you? Let me tell you, it wasn't just one person; everyone's attitude... was extremely proactive!

Immediately, the farm office became bustling with activity.

This scene is reminiscent of the time when Yutenji Kumamoto stood up for everyone.

But in the end, he could only end up with a limp.

Immediately, the angry bear began to look at its neighbors and relatives with suspicion.

In particular, Ikeda shouted, "Who, who betrayed Kumamoto? That bastard! He's helped us so much all this time! He's despicable... he's despicable..."

"Yes, who betrayed us?"

Some people stood up, while others remained seated, but the atmosphere of mutual suspicion intensified.

The guilt that everyone felt for Kumamoto-san's compromise back then has now turned into hostile gazes towards others.

Sitting on top, Endo Katsu revealed a sinister smile.

But at that moment, Uncle Kumamoto stood up, and everyone looked at him.

Then, the tall, composed man said, "Ikeda, I know your mother. She's in the hospital waiting for a bone marrow transplant."

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise, and they looked at Ikeda. Could it be that Ikeda was the one who reported it, and that what happened just now was all a staged performance?

“Ikeda, Kumamoto has lent you money several times over the years, how could you…”

"Kumamoto, I..."

But before Ikeda could finish speaking, Uncle Kumamoto said, "But every time new rice comes out, you always bring it to me first. You always feel ashamed in front of Wakame and feel sorry for me."

You, a fool like you, how could you be smart enough to betray someone?

"Kumamoto..."

Then, Uncle Kumamoto turned to the woman beside him and said, "Mrs. Oda, your son recently got into a university in Kyoto. It must cost a lot of money for him to leave here, right?"

"Kumamoto..."

"But you're the kind of person who'd be quick to pay back even the salt money you owe the convenience store, how could you possibly betray me?"

Then, Kumamoto went to each of these villagers to prove his innocence.

"Kikuta...Goto...Ishikawa..."

After his mouth became dry, he took a deep breath. At that moment, everyone in the entire farmhouse looked at the lame man.

"Take me away with you. I believe no one will betray me."

A complex mix of emotion and admiration appeared on everyone's faces.

Nobody really knows if anyone betrayed Uncle Kumamoto.

But Uncle Kumamoto doesn't want to know, nor does he need to know.

Even before the police could make a move, he put on the handcuffs himself and then limped out, just like any other day.
