Chapter 196 The Bandage Monster is Too Inferior (Ch 196)

Morizono Mikio was immediately furious. He had warmly received his in-laws, but they said he was here to break off the engagement? He wanted to shout: Thirty years on the west side of the river, thirty years on the east side of the river…

“You want to cancel the engagement? Why do you want to cancel the engagement?”

Mr. Katagiri knew that what he did would definitely anger President Morizono, but he continued, “President Morizono, you should also know that Xiaofeng and Kikuto are not in love with each other.”

Mikio Morizono did not refute. At first, he thought that his son and Xiaofeng were in love with each other, so he sent someone to the Katagiri family to ask for marriage on behalf of his son. After all, Xiaofeng took the initiative to look for his son, and his son Kikuto also liked Xiaofeng, so how could they not be in love with each other?

But later, Morizono Mikio discovered that he had made a mistake. Xiaofeng was not looking for Kikuto, but for Sakuraba Yuji, the male servant of the Morizono mansion… This was embarrassing, but fortunately, facing Kikuto’s pursuit, “437” Xiaofeng did not refuse.

“Didn’t your daughter reject my son’s pursuit?” Morizono Mikio said, “And she agreed to this marriage, right? This means that she is more or less interested in my son. Although the feelings are not deep, they can be cultivated slowly after marriage.”

“President Morizono, do you really not know why Xiaofeng agreed to this marriage?” asked Mr. Katagiri tentatively.

Morizono Mikio was stunned, “Is there any other problem here?”

Lord Katagiri was very surprised. It seemed that Morizono Mikio was completely unaware of this…

“Your son came to threaten me, saying that if I didn’t agree to this marriage, he would use the power of the Morizono Group to suppress the Katagiri Group.” Mr. Katagiri said: “Later, Xiaofeng took the initiative to propose to marry Kikuto. I thought she really liked Kikuto, so I agreed to the marriage. Later I found out that she heard Kikuto’s threats and she didn’t want to cause trouble for me…”

“What?!” Morizono Kikuto was shocked and slammed his hand on the table. “That bastard actually did this behind my back! How ridiculous!”

“So I’m here today to cancel the engagement. Xiaofeng and Kikuto are not suitable for each other.” Lord Katagiri explained his purpose again.

Mikio Morizono was very angry, and he didn’t know whether he was angry at his son or at the cancellation of the engagement. “Are you really going to cancel it?”

“We must retreat…”

Morizono Mikio clenched his fists tightly, “This marriage cannot be cancelled. I have even sent out the invitations. If the marriage is cancelled, where will the Morizono family put their face?”

Lord Katagiri made a concession, “You can announce to the public that it was the Morizono family who took the initiative to cancel the engagement.”

“No, I absolutely disagree with breaking off the engagement!”

After several arguments, seeing that Morizono Mikio was determined, Katagiri had no choice but to use his trump card, “Since President Morizono is unreasonable, then I can only be unreasonable. I have evidence of Kikuto’s bribery. If you don’t agree to cancel the engagement, I can’t guarantee where this evidence will appear…”

“Lord Katagiri…what do you mean?” Mikio Morizono narrowed his eyes.

“My meaning is obvious.”

Morizono Mikio was very angry. He held it in for a long time before he said, “Give me three days. I will give you an answer before dark in three days.”

“Okay, then I’ll bring Xiao Feng here in the afternoon three days later.”

…

At the same time, Wangyue and Xiaolan were approaching the villa of the Sonoko family. The villa was built on a mountain. Wangyue parked the car at the foot of the mountain and then hiked up the mountain with Xiaolan.

“Are you tired? Do you need me to help you carry your luggage?” Wangyue saw that Xiaolan seemed to be having a hard time carrying her luggage. Because they were going to stay here overnight, he and Xiaolan both brought some luggage.

But his luggage was just for show; all the really important things were placed in the storage space.

“Thank you, I’m fine.” Xiaolan declined Wangyue’s kindness.

As they walked, Mochizuki thought about what might happen. According to Sonoko, this party was hosted by her sister Suzuki Ayako, and there were not many people, only a few college classmates were invited.

Mochizuki is probably the one who was involved in the Bandage Man case. According to the plot, the Bandage Man will deliberately show up on the way here, so that after committing the crime, the people in the villa will suspect that the Bandage Man is the murderer, but they don’t know that the Bandage Man is a guest in disguise.

So, Xiaolan and I should see the bandage monster later…

Just as Wangyue was thinking this, Xiaolan suddenly pointed to the front and said, “Huh? Wangyue, there seems to be someone over there. Could it be a guest visiting the Sonoko family as well?”

Wangyue looked up and saw a cliff in front of him, with a suspension bridge connecting the two sides. In the center of the suspension bridge stood a man in a black cloak and a hat, with his back to the direction he was coming from.

It appeared as expected!

“I don’t know. Let’s go over and ask.” Wangyue and Xiaolan walked towards the suspension bridge together…

Before the two men stepped onto the suspension bridge, the man on the bridge turned around. His entire face was wrapped in bandages, with only a pair of eyes exposed. He looked like a ghost.

“Ah!” Xiaolan screamed in fear, “He! What happened to him?” (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

“Maybe there’s a wound on his face.” Wangyue replied casually.

Seeing this, the bandaged man ran away, but it seemed that he ran too fast, and his feet slipped and he fell to the ground, and the whole person got out from between the ropes that served as guardrails on the side of the suspension bridge. Because the vertical ropes were spaced quite wide, about 30 to 40 centimeters apart, it was just enough for a person to get through.

“Ahhhh!” The bandaged man screamed in fear and instinctively reached out to grab something as he fell. As a result, he actually grabbed the rope of the suspension bridge and his whole body was hanging on the edge of the suspension bridge.

Wangyue was confused. He had never expected such an accident to happen. You are too careless, aren’t you? You killed yourself before you even committed the crime?

“Oh no! He’s going to fall!” Xiaolan was horrified when she saw this scene.

There was a bottomless canyon below, and the bandaged man was hanging on the side of the suspension bridge, holding a rope. As he was hanging in the air, there was no place to gain leverage, so he couldn’t climb up even if he wanted to.

“Help! Help!” At this critical moment, how could he care about his own plan? Saving his life was the most important thing! If he fell from here, he would lose his life, so how could he talk about revenge for the goddess?

Xiaolan is usually extremely kind-hearted. She will not stand idly by when she sees others in danger. “Wangyue, let’s go save him!” After saying that, Xiaolan took the lead in rushing towards the suspension bridge, and Wangyue followed after thinking about it.

Regardless of whether the bandage monster will attack Xiaolan later, at least it has not happened yet. Xiaolan ran over to save people, so it would not be good to be too cold-blooded.

The two men ran onto the suspension bridge, causing it to shake. The bandaged man’s voice became even more terrifying, “Help! Help!”

“Hold on!” Xiaolan said as she ran to the bandaged monster, and Mochizuki arrived shortly after.

The two men bent down, one of them grabbed one of the bandaged man’s hands, and pulled him back onto the suspension bridge. Xiaolan then collapsed to the ground and breathed a sigh of relief, “Great, he’s saved.”

The bandaged man was lying on the ground, his legs trembling with fear, and he couldn’t stand up at all.
