November 10, Aoyama Xiu Xin returned to Sapporo.
Only this time, he was accompanied by an additional person.
Twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, of average build, with a "three-to-seven" ratio hairstyle, he wasn't particularly handsome, but his eyes were lively. He was none other than the president of the Takashita Group, Takashita Kanji.
The competition in Tokyo was too fierce, and unable to secure a foothold, Takashita Kanji decided to follow Aoyama Xiu Xin and shift the development focus of the Takashita Group to Hokkaido.
After researching his background, Aoyama Xiu Xin found nothing amiss and decided to grant him the opportunity he wished for, bringing him back to Hokkaido to give him some work and see how capable he was. If he proved satisfactory, he would nurture him; if his performance was lacklustre, he would give him some benefits as a reward for killing Tanaka Noriaki and then be done with him.
