His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Yagi Seiryo paused for a long moment before speaking up.

"Ayumi is dead." He said with a heavy tone. 

Kaito looked nonchalant after receiving this fresh piece of news, but he was not completely unaffected. He had long grown tired of Ayumi and her antics. Furthermore, he never planned to forgive her for the things she said about flaying Akira. He had blacklisted her in his mind. 

And with a chance in the Crown, he would have killed her.

Still, he mourned for her death. 

However, he also knew that it was inevitable for Ayumi to have a bad ending. She had not only offended him. She had caused a big mess in both the Shadow Brotherhood and the general underworld in Tokyo, especially after realising Venom and the rest of them. 

Kaito saw the evidence collected from the deaths of the people who had opposed Ayumi and gotten killed by those prisoners. As an assassin, he had seen a lot, but he could not deny that the scene photos caused his stomach to churn. 

Retribution always came. No one could escape the cycle of karma. 

"I see," Kaito said. 

"Are you not going to ask what happened?" Yagi asked with a strange look in his eyes. 

"It is not difficult to guess," Kaito responded. 

He could already deduce that the people who wanted to deal with Ayumi were from the Shadow Brotherhood. As soon as Ayumi lost control of Venom, Spider and the rest of the prisoners, she became a vulnerable sheep. 

In Yagi's territory, she could hide peacefully. As soon as the yakuza leader kicked her out, they probably took her out immediately. 

"She offended quite a number of people in the recent past, so her death was particularly painful." Yagi tried to bait Kaito so that he would ask for more information. 

"I am more interested in your presence here. What do you want?" Kaito did not want to dwell on the gruesome end of Ayumi. 

Moreover, he had a lot of business to handle. He wanted to return to Mountain Ridge as soon as possible. 

It was strange. He moved to Mountain Ridge on a whim. He did not like the Takahashi family, and he did not have a lot of ties to the city. However, because of Akira, he came to think of Mountain Ridge as his home. 

He smiled a little before his face resumed its cold appearance. 

Yagi looked at the assassin and decided to speak his mind.  "I have been looking for an opportunity to repay your kindness." 

The strange words triggered genuine surprise. Kaito looked at Yagi and wondered if there was something weird going on in the man's head. Repaying kindness? That sounded like a joke from an alternate world. 

"I did not know you owed me any form of kindness. If I am not wrong, we met for the first time just a few hours ago." Kaito said with an intense look in his eyes. 

He was extremely cautious of people who were solicitous without cause. Furthermore, he did not believe that the leader of the Yakuza was the kind of person who would look for someone to repay a random thing with such care. 

Kaito could not help feeling suspicious. 

"This matter is related to my family," Yagi said. "We were almost forced to extinction some year back, but your actions changed everything. They also allowed me to understand the situation, find a chance to counterattack and save my family. Naturally, I am a man who repays my debts." 

Kaito understood the gist of Yagi's story. 

"You are related to the old leader, Ochi?" He asked. 

"Yes. He is my father." Yagi said. "I know that his half-brother wanted you to take him out about seven or so years ago. He wanted to take over the business, and he would have caused a lot of harm. However, you chose not to take my father's life." 

Kaito frowned. "That was merely a business decision. I found the job to be troublesome, so I decided to reject the work. There is no need for you to repay any kindness. If this is the reason you want to keep appearing before me, rest assured that I did not help your father." 

Yagi was not offended by the complete denial. He had expected as much from the mighty assassin. Sometimes, even as a great leader in the underworld, he felt inadequate in comparison to Kaito who lived an epic life. 

At that time, seven years ago, he was twenty years old and still going through his rebellious phase. He did not want to do anything but have fun with his lackeys who followed him around because he had a lot of money. 

However, after meeting Kaito, his outlook on life changed. 

"Thai is not the issue I am referring to," Yagi said. "You saved my niece, even when you did not have to. You were not paid for this, so it can be considered an act of kindness. Naturally, as her uncle, I would like to thank you." 

Kaito's face did not change. "I do not have the habit of saving anyone without payment. If it happened, I do not have any recollection, or it was an accident. Once again, Mr Yagi, you do not owe me any debt of gratitude." 

"And if you did, you are causing more trouble for me right now. I do not have time to play around with you. If there is anything further to discuss, let us do it at a more appropriate time." 

Without waiting for Yagi to speak again, Kaito pressed a button on the intercom, and the formerly drunk mercenary from the cafeteria appeared at the door. Kaito indicated at Yagi without a hint of politeness.

"Shadow, see our guest out," Kaito said. 

Shadow was happy because the big boss had finally called him by his name. Even though he did not give a good first impression, it looked like there was hope for recovery. He held the door open for the yakuza leader with enthusiasm. 

"Mr Yagi, please."
