"Is it that bad?"

The traditional trading company from the Showa era, Gorooka Shoji was facing bankruptcy! 

After the death of Masatos.h.i.+, his son Masas.h.i.+ has leaded the company into deficit.

The wealth acc.u.mulated over three generations has been completely lost.

This was all the result of Masas.h.i.+'s poor management.

Even the top level management was disgusted by him.

But they could do nothing but bear him, as he was the last member of Garooka Shoji.

The only reason the company lasted so long after Masatos.h.i.+'s death is due to Ohas.h.i.+ Bridge, president of a large company. He was brought up by Masatos.h.i.+.

"Mr.Ohas.h.i.+, is there no other option?'

Even at home, Ohas.h.i.+ did no have any pride in his luxurious items.

Masas.h.i.+ desperately pleaded by forcing his forehead against the expensive Persian carpet.

"Mr.Tataoka, it’s impossible for you. I think that it was good enough that you managed to reach this far"

"Please, just give me one last chance!"

"Actually, Mr.Matsuda of the Daikokuyo bank is supposed to come here today"

Masas.h.i.+ said

Ohas.h.i.+ had a strange smile on his face. But as if Masas.h.i.+ could not understand it he quickly reverted back to his same old tone.

"Are you sure Mr.Takaoka?"

Masas.h.i.+ could not hear him.

He overflowed with tears thinking about the loss of Garooka Shoji, which had been working for more than 50 years.

After his last desperate effort Masas.h.i.+ lost his voice unable to speak out.

The atmosphere turned silent, and awkward.

Within the awkward room time slowly pa.s.sed.

Finally, the door slowly opened.

"Mr. Matsuda!!!"

Masas.h.i.+ ran towards the door

"I'm sorry, Mr.Ohas.h.i.+. I contacted Mr.Matsuda"

"I got late, Mr.Takaoka, Ohahi"

Masas.h.i.+ was surprised to see Mr.Matsuda wearing a really high-end costly suit,

At this time Matsuda and Ohahi sent secret signals towards each other.

But this was gone unnoticed by Masas.h.i.+.

For Masas.h.i.+, Matsuda looked like a G.o.d of salvation.

But he didn't know that he was actually the messenger of The Devil.

The person that would lead him to his destruction.
