Chapter 475: The Patrol Team Captain’s Remorse

The Kujo Family's villa area.

A black stretch limousine was parked on the roadside.

Kujo Kazuya opened the car door and respectfully stood aside.

Controlling Caesar, Zhou Huai fully immersed himself in the role of Kujo Koji, only glancing at that car out of the corner of his eye.

He quickly made arrangements.

"Kujo Kazuya, you are responsible for driving."

"Kalen, sit in the front."

"Ms. Polina, you will sit in the back with me."

Kalen's brow instantly furrowed into a knot.

He looked at Polina beside him, whose Aura was still somewhat weak.

"On what grounds?"

"On what grounds should I sit in the front? Polina needs someone to take care of her!"

Zhou Huai gave him a look as if he were looking at an idiot.

"I am Kujo Koji now."

"Do you think the head of the Kujo Family would sit in the front passenger seat?"

This single sentence choked Kalen, causing his face to instantly flush red.

He opened his mouth, wanting to retort, but found that he couldn't say a single word.

That's right.

How could the head of the Family act as a driver for others, and how could he sit in the front passenger seat?

Wouldn't that make him a bodyguard?

Kalen held it in for a long time, and finally managed to squeeze out a single word from between his teeth.

"You…"

He resentfully glared at Zhou Huai, but ultimately pulled open the front passenger door, plopped inside, and then slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

Zhou Huai didn't look at him, instead turning around to open the car door for Polina and making a gesture inviting her in.

The four of them got into the car.

The black sedan started smoothly and drove toward the manor's main gate.

The atmosphere inside the car was oppressive.

Kujo Kazuya tightly gripped the steering wheel, his palms sweating.

Kalen in the front passenger seat looked out the window with a dark face, giving off a "don't mess with me" vibe.

Right at this moment, Zhou Huai moved.

He very naturally extended his arm, wrapped it around Polina's shoulders, and with a slight exertion, pulled her into his arms.

Polina's body stiffened.

But she quickly reacted, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

She no longer struggled, instead obediently adjusting her posture and gently resting her head against Caesar's broad chest, like a docile cat.

A faint fragrance, mixed with perfume and a woman's natural scent, drifted into Zhou Huai's nasal cavity.

The delicate body in his arms was soft and warm; through the thin clothing, he could even feel its astonishing elasticity.

Zhou Huai's mind couldn't help but ripple slightly.

As expected of the SS-rank Dominator of Lust.

The physical attraction alone was enough to make any man fall.

He tried his best to restrain himself, but his heartbeat still skipped a beat.

This scene clearly fell into Kalen's eyes through the rearview mirror.

He exploded with a "whoosh."

He abruptly turned his head and glared furiously at Zhou Huai.

"Hey! What are you doing!"

"Where are your hands touching!"

Zhou Huai was expressionless, not even lifting his eyelids.

"Turn back around."

"Remember, I am Kujo Koji now."

"If you want to get out of here smoothly, obediently act according to my instructions."

"Otherwise, I don't mind throwing you out of the car right now and letting you figure out how to face the Kujo Family's inescapable net on your own."

Polina also slowly opened her eyes at this moment, her alluring eyes carrying a smile.

She spoke in a soft voice.

"Kalen, listen to him."

"Right now, all of us must listen to the arrangements of this Ever-changing Star Lord."

After saying that, she deliberately squeezed further into Zhou Huai's arms, rested her head in a more comfortable position, and closed her eyes once again.

Her submissive appearance pierced into Kalen's heart like a needle.

"Hmph!"

Kalen let out a heavy huff, abruptly turned his head back, and stared fixedly at the scenery rapidly retreating outside the window without saying a word.

His violently heaving chest exposed his extremely unhappy mood at the moment.

Kujo Kazuya, who was driving, didn't speak, but his knuckles gripping the steering wheel turned white.

His occasional glances at the rearview mirror were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

The car drove smoothly along the manor's road.

The guards on the roadside bowed in salute when they saw the car.

Soon, the manor's main gate was right in front of them.

Several guards in black suits with bulging waists stood straight at the entrance like javelins.

Seeing this unfamiliar sedan approaching, the leader of the Patrol Team made a gesture.

The vehicle slowly came to a halt.

The guards stepped forward as usual, preparing to conduct an inspection.

When they saw the man sitting in the back row, resting with his eyes closed, the expressions of several guards changed instantly.

They almost subconsciously bent over, bowing at a ninety-degree angle, their expressions extremely respectful.

"Lord Koji!"

The captain at the head also had a face full of respectful smiles.

But deep within his eyes, a hint of suspicion was hidden.

He carefully approached the rear car window, lowering his voice to a whisper.

"Lord Koji, why are you riding in this car today?"

"Why didn't Lord Akiyama follow you today?"

The Akiyama in the captain's mouth was Kujo Koji's personal bodyguard, an S-rank powerhouse who was almost inseparable whenever he went out.

Yet this time, not only did Lord Koji not bring Akiyama, but there were also two strangers in the car.

Moreover, these two people didn't look like people from Sakura Country at all, and they looked very suspicious.

Especially that woman.

Such a beautiful woman—if she had ever appeared by the Family head's side, it would be impossible for him not to have an impression.

The more the captain thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

Zhou Huai slowly opened his eyes, those arrogant and indifferent eyes belonging to Kujo Koji quietly looking at the captain outside the window.

He didn't answer the question.

He just slowly spoke in a tone devoid of any emotion.

"Since when has my situation needed to be reported to you?"

The voice wasn't loud, but it was like a basin of ice water poured instantly over the captain's head.

That captain's body stiffened abruptly, and the smile on his face froze instantly.

A chill rushed straight from the soles of his feet to his crown.

He only felt an invisible, mountain-like pressure tightly shrouding him.

"Thump!"

The captain's legs went soft, and he actually knelt directly on the ground, his forehead pressed tightly against the cold ground, his body trembling like a sieve.

"This subordinate wouldn't dare! This subordinate wouldn't dare!"

"This subordinate deserves death a thousand times over!"

How could he dare have the slightest doubt anymore? Only fear deep into his bones remained.

The Family head's majesty could not be provoked.

Today, he had committed a major taboo.

"Open the door!"

The captain used all his strength to roar at his subordinates behind him.

The two guards were also scared out of their wits, hastily operating the controls in a flurry as the heavy alloy gates slowly slid open to both sides.

Kujo Kazuya took a deep breath and restarted the car.

The vehicle slowly drove past the captain kneeling on the ground.

Just at the moment when the car window was about to roll up completely, Zhou Huai's cold voice drifted out once again.

"You don't need to come tomorrow."

"I don't hope to ever see you anywhere in the Kujo Family in the future."

After saying that, the car window closed completely.

The black sedan sped away, quickly disappearing into the night.

Leaving only the captain kneeling on the ground, collapsed and limp as if all his strength had been drained away.

His complexion was as pale as paper, his eyes hollow, muttering unconsciously in his mouth.

"It's over…"

"It's all over…"

He knew very well what Lord Koji's words meant.

He had not only lost this lucrative and prestigious job.

But he was also completely expelled by the entire Kujo Family, and even the upper class of the entire Sakura Country.

There would no longer be any Family or guild daring to hire someone personally ordered to be expelled by Kujo Koji.

His life had been completely ruined in those short dozen or so seconds just now.

Why?

Why did he have to say that extra sentence?

Tears of remorse, mixed with cold sweat, silently slid down his face.

However, just when he was doubting his life,

another black sedan slowly drove over from the distance.

That was a more luxurious custom-made vehicle with a greater Aura.

The license plate number was one he couldn't possibly be more familiar with.

That… that was Lord Koji's true vehicle!
