Chapter 82: Gen Chisei: Pops, that’s genius!
Faced with Lu Chen’s question, Erii actually shook her head. Her eyes were fixated on the two Disneyland discount coupons on the plates. This was sent by Burger King after they had spent a certain amount of money. Burger King always loved to engage in this sort of intermodal advertising.
With this coupon, they could even get 20% off the food in Disneyland.
“Disneyland?” Lu Chen picked up a coupon and took a look. He had heard of this place and heard that little kids really liked it, so he didn’t go.
Huh? No matter how much I want to experience various new entertainment facilities within this world, how could I, Lu Chen, go to a place where children played!
“You want to go?” He looked over at Erii.
Erii paused a bit before she began to write in her little notebook, “It’s hard to get out, I want to take a look.”
Erii had seen Disneyland on TV commercials multiple times, but she was never able to be this close, until now, where she was close enough to have two discount coupons with Disneyland designs on them placed in front of her.
“Then let’s go. It’s just I heard the line is long,” Lu Chen packed up the two coupons. He considered this taking a kid to play at Disneyland, not play there himself!
When the two went to return the plates, the waiter’s eyes bulged out in shock. He had thought that the young couple would get takeout. Who knew… they’d finish all of it!
Before exiting, Lu Chen turned around and asked, “Say, why is it so hard to come out? Is your home really strict?”
He thought, are young mistresses from Japanese traditional families usually grounded like Erii is?
“If I come out, I will give Big Brother trouble. Big Brother will not be happy,” Erii held up the notebook. As if thinking of something, for an instant, Lu Chen saw the despondency within her eyes.
“How could he say that? If I were your big brother, I’d carry that pressure myself and let my sister play to her heart’s content,” Lu Chen lightly spat, but Erii raised her notebook, “Big Brother has been trying very hard.”
And thus, this topic ended. Lu Chen hailed a taxi and they went straight to Disneyland.
If he knew the taxi fare in Japan, he would… still call a taxi. After all, he was bad at finding the way.
He and the principal had talked about this, and the latter revealed that, as long as you’re strong enough, spend the Secret Party’s money as you like!
Money spent on stuff like hailing a taxi, having a meal, or going to the amusement park, compared to the money the principal spent flying around in his private jet, was like sprinkles of water.
Lu Chen usually did not swipe the card spontaneously, just in spirit of his values of never excessively wasting.

“Chisei, calm down,” said the Yamata-no-Orochi clan leader, Tachibana Masamune, to the young man in front of him.
“Pops…” Gen Chisei also realized that he had panicked a bit on the way here. Erii was taken away by Lu Chen, which was obviously something out of their control.
“No need to panic. Guess where Lu Chen has taken Erii?” Tachibana poured a cup of tea, his voice smooth.
“Where?” Chisei was a bit confused about what his old man meant. Could it be that that kid, Lu Chen, was bold enough to take Erii directly back to the Peninsula Hotel!?
“He and Erii went to the arcade, played games all morning, and after having lunch, are now preparing to head to Disneyland,” Tachibana paused, then added, “through the clan members’ observations, they concluded that Lu Chen also seems to be having a good time.”
Gen Chisei started to somewhat understand what his old man meant, “Pops, so you’re saying… that Lu chen does not know Erii’s real identity, that this really was just a chance encounter? He was just literally just looking for someone to hang out with?” Tachibana nodded, “That is a possibility.”
After thinking about it, Chisei felt a bit uneasy. Couldn’t this be a step-by-step plan to have Erii’s good graces?
But then he thought, based on yesterday’s meeting with Lu Chen, the teenager did not look like the sort of calculating kind of person, but rather like a steadfast ronin of the Sengoku period.
“Pops, so what should we do now? Should I go and bring Erii back?” In any case, it was dangerous for Erii to stay with the people from headquarters for an extended amount of time, in every sense of the word.
“No,” Tachibana shook his head, and Chisei, momentarily confused, sat back and waited for his old man’s esteemed opinion.
But who knew Tachibana would just sigh and say, “Since that child wants to go out and play, let her play, otherwise, there will come another time just like this. When she’s played to her heart’s content, call her back, which is why I’ve already sent people to notify the people at Disneyland.”
Gen Chisei finally relaxed. His old man’s arrangements were always appropriate, and at the same time, also to his liking. He truly hoped that Erii could go out and play like a normal girl.
But as he thought again, he hesitantly asked, “But… since Lu Chen and Erii’s ages are so similar, and if they played for a few more days, wouldn’t they…”
17-18 year old teenage girls are in a restless state. If they played together for a few days, what would happen if sparks started to fly?
Even if he conceded that Erii still had a very immature state of mind, likely not knowing what love was, Lu Chen was different. If Lu Chen were to coax Erii, what would they do?
“Chisei, I have said many times, you are the one who is going to succeed me, as well as the current director of the Execution Bureau. Don’t stutter, else your subordinates look down on you,” Tachibana’s demeanor was serious as he lectured.
“Yes,” Gen Chisei bowed his head, but he was really only like this in front of his old man.
Tachibana Masamune looked at the leaves that were sticking out from the tea and said, “In the case of young people, it’s sometimes good to let nature take its course. Lu Chen has no father nor mother—he is all alone.”
Chisei instantly understood what his old man meant. Yes, they truly didn’t have to worry about this matter. If one day the Yamata-no-Orochi had to find a “son-in-law” for Erii, who better to have than Lu Chen?
Lu Chen himself had no attachments, it may even be possible for him to expand under the Yamata-no-Orochi.
But then he shook his head and laughed, thinking that it was unlikely. Cassell College was full of beautiful women, and the girls lining up to pursue the Lionheart Society president could fill up a whole building. What girl hasn’t the other person seen?
Erii was also born beautiful, but her ability to beguile a man, it couldn’t even be zero… it was even less than that.
Desiring to steal the S-grade ace agent’s “heart” was undoubtedly a fool’s dream.
He should just think of it as Erii going out to drive away her cares, which should be good for her stability.
