"But Grandpa, the position of Director is so crucial and the situation so urgent, is there anyone suitable to replace Renping Kuniaki?" Xiu Xin asked.

Yanchuan Shilang glanced at him and said indifferently, "Let Asai Youki act temporarily."

Asai Youki was originally the Deputy Director, and it's reasonable for him to take over the position after a probationary period.

More importantly, the Asakai family and the Yanchuan Family have been family friends for generations, and Asai Youki is Xiu Xin's future father-in-law, so there's no chance he will betray the Yanchuan Family.

"Alright! Since Grandpa has decided to get rid of the traitor, Renping Kuniaki, I will carry out the task immediately," Xiu Xin said calmly.

Asai Youki is truly lucky. He had just been promoted to deputy director not long ago, and his superior is already about to meet his demise.

Yanchuan Shilang nodded, then added coldly, "Tell Renping Kuniaki, I regret it."

"Understood!" Xiu Xin responded, realized there were no further instructions, bowed, and left.

Yanchuan Shilang did not rest but called his secretary, instructing him to inform some high-ranking members of the Yanchuan Faction to have breakfast together the next morning.

Since it's about striking fear into others, one must let his people know why Renping Kuniaki died.

After leaving Yanchuan Shilang's home, Xiu Xin called Asai Ayumi, instructing her to gather four trusted aides from the sex crime division to stand by.

He then called Yamakawa Ichiro, asking him to immediately arrange for a controllable woman to go to the Police Headquarters and report that she had been raped by Renping Kuniaki.

As soon as he arrived at the Police Headquarters, Asai Ayumi, having received the news, found him and asked in a low voice, "What is going on? A blonde woman just came looking for me by name, claiming she was raped by Director Renping. Was this your arrangement?"

She had a hunch that the people Xiu Xin wanted her to prepare were likely aimed at dealing with Renping Kuniaki.

"Where is she?" Xiu Xin did not answer her question, instead asked one in return.

"She's been restrained, no interrogation yet."

"Alright, no need to interrogate her yet." Xiu Xin nodded. He hadn't even finished drafting that woman's testimony. He then asked, "Are the people ready?"

"Ready, four people, all members of the sex crime division," Asai Ayumi replied, then asked, "Why are you doing this? One woman's accusation alone isn't enough to bring down Director Renping, it will only provoke him to retaliate against you fully."

From Xiu Xin's demeanor, she already confirmed that the woman was arranged by Xiu Xin, and the people she prepared were going to deal with Renping Kuniaki.

"Dead men have no chance to retaliate, they can't even defend themselves." Xiu Xin said.

Asai Ayumi was taken aback, glancing around to ensure no one was around, then widened her eyes and questioned in a low voice, "Are you planning to kill Director Renping? Are you insane? He's the director of the Police Headquarters, not some criminal you've dealt with in the past!"

"I'm not the one who wants to kill him." Xiu Xin shook his head and exhaled, saying, "It's Grandpa."

Hearing this, Asai Ayumi was stunned. Her expression gradually calmed. If it were Yanchuan Shilang, then indeed, he could forcibly kill Renping Kuniaki with this kind of method.

"But why would he do this? Isn't the Director working for him?" Asai Ayumi was puzzled.

Xiu Xin did not hide it from her, "Renping Kuniaki betrayed Grandpa. I handed the evidence to Grandpa myself. Grandpa instructed me to eliminate him tonight, and after his death, your father will act as the Director."

"How could Director Renping... how could he be so foolish!" Asai Ayumi couldn't understand Renping Kuniaki's betrayal. She didn't feel pleased that her father would gain a huge advantage, instead, she worried about Xiu Xin's situation, "If you force Director Renping to death tonight, his two sons abroad will hate you to the bone, it'll be a never-ending vendetta."

Originally, Renping Oshiro and Nipponjiro were forced overseas by Xiu Xin, with existing grudges between them, now adding their father's murder, it's imaginable that those brothers would want to devour Xiu Xin alive.

"I have no choice; Grandpa's orders cannot be refused. If I don't dare to do the dirty work for the Yanchuan Family, what's the point of my existence?" Xiu Xin shook his head, slowly exhaled, and his gaze turned cold, "Besides, his betrayal not only harms Grandpa but also undermines my interests."

Stopping for a moment, he laughed with relief and said, "As for the revenge from Renping Oshiro and Nipponjiro, it's fair. They originally have the right to take revenge. Let them come at me, and let's see who's the stronger. Everyone should pay for what they've done; it's just a matter of whether they have the capability to make me pay the price I owe."

When will the cycle of revenge end?

It's a pity Renping Kuniaki's sons are not in the country.

If they were, he could have eliminated them at the root, preventing the hatred from passing down generation after generation.

"You have great ambitions, but as far as I know, those who do the dirty work and have blood on their hands have never climbed very high. I fear you'll just drift further from your aspirations," Asai Ayumi said worriedly.

Although Yanchuan Shilang supported Xiu Xin relentlessly, his clearly defined role was to handle the dirty work and to protect the Yanchuan Family.

If the Yanchuan Family were to fall from power one day, Xiu Xin would inevitably face attacks, revenge, and exclusion from all sides; if the Yanchuan Family remained powerful, Xiu Xin would be nothing more than a tool serving Yanchuan Xianyou.
