“Yes!” the girl affirmed, continuing, “They’re all part of the runaway group. The gentleman saw the bumpy road and ended up injuring several aggressive individuals. When the runaway members were hit by the car, one of them pulled out a knife. Because of my presence, the gentleman disarmed him, and I was saved.”


    “Then, as the violent group was trying to escape, the gentleman pursued them, which led to one of them being struck by a car. You know the rest of the story.”


    Zara was taken aback after hearing this. She hadn’t anticipated such a quick turn of events! The rebellious young man she had just seen was actually trying to protect an innocent girl from the runaway group’s clutches. What’s more, that girl was a fellow Chinese!


    Zara could only imagine that had it not been for the man’s intervention today, this young girl in a foreignnd might have suffered at the hands of the Japanese thugs, possibly facing abuse! No wonder the man had acted so fiercely! If it were her, she would want to put an end to those thugs too!


    Takahashi Eiji was still shouting angrily at the other party, even sending a dozen bodyguards to surround them. Given the circumstances, it wouldn’t be excessive to have those thugs dealt with severely!<fn21de> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? FindN()vel</fn21de><h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    In that moment, Zara’s anger towards Charlie faded awaypletely.


    Turning to the girl, Zara inquired, “Do you know which group they belong to? What runaway group is it?”


    The girl quickly responded, “It’s the Bunkyo Runaway Group, thergest violent organization in Bunkyo District!”


    “Bunkyo Runaway Group?” Zara shot a cold nce at Takahashi Eiji, asking, “Isn’t the Bunkyo Runaway Group an external entity rted to your Takahashi family? They’re extorting money from street performers and forcing others intopliance. Isn’t that uneptable?”


    Takahashi Eiji’s expression turned to shock and then embarrassment as he stammered, “Miss Banks, where did you hear such rumors? Our Takahashi family has no connection with the runaway group…”


    Zara retorted, “Mr. Takahashi, I’ve done my homework beforeing here. Your family originally thrived in the gray market, and although youter distanced yourselves from the underworld, your transformation was quite sessful!”


    She continued, “I’m aware that more than half of the runaway groups in Tokyo and its surroundings are under your family’s influence. However, you’ve cleverly avoided direct involvement, instead opting to use distant rtives with different surnames to manage them, right?”


    Takahashi Eiji looked embarrassed as he replied, “Well… Miss Banks… These runaway groups are indeed managed by our foreign rtives, but our Takahashi family has long ceased to be involved in this business…”


    Zara scoffed, “Mr. Takahashi, we’re all adults here. Don’t underestimate my intelligence! The events of today, including the loss of your arm, are entirely the result of your family’s tolerance toward the chaos instigated by the runaway group!”


    Hideki Takahashi was at a loss for words, wanting to argue but unable to find a valid point to counter. Zara pointed to the Chinese girl and addressed Takahashi Eiji, saying, “Mr. Takahashi, this youngdy is innocent in this matter. I hope you will not cause her any trouble in the future. Can you agree to that?”


    Realizing his error, Hideki Takahashi didn’t dare to offend Zara and nodded solemnly, “Miss Banks, rest assured, I will not make things difficult for her in the future…”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
