Chapter 1738

Charlie replied seriously, “I just feel that something is wrong. When I went out for a walk just now, it seemed as though I inexplicably heard someone fighting behind me and there were sounds of weapon collision too. However, when I turned around to take a look, there was nothing at all.”

Isaac thought for a moment before he said, “Young master, I think that you are being a little too sensitive. Perhaps you were having auditory hallucinations too.”

“Something really seemed off.” Charlie smacked his lips together as he said, “The movements that I overheard were very chaotic and it seemed as though several people had been fighting for quite some time. And then, it seems as though someone was struggling and whimpering after getting his mouth covered. After walking towards the direction of the sound, I found a pool of blood on the ground and also a shoe. The shoe was also damn weird…”

Isaac said, “Young master, the blood could possibly belong to an animal too. As for the shoe, what can be so weird about a shoe?”

Charlie replied very seriously, “Can you believe that there was a dagger coming out from the tip of the sole of the shoe? It is similar to what we see in the movies. It was abnormally wicked!”

Isaac exclaimed, “What? There is a dagger at the tip of the shoe? That is really weird, right?!”

When the three people in Masatetsu’s room heard what Charlie had just said, they were terrified!

Abit frightened, second junior said, “Senior, the shoe that he is talking about seems to be Aota’s ninja shoes!”

Masatetsu also became nervous as he frowned and said, “According to what he had just said, is it possible that Aota has been harmed by some other people then?”

Third junior chimed in at this time, “It could very likely be some other ninja too!”

On the other side, Isaac asked Charlie, “Young master, do you think this could be the legendary Japanese ninja then?”

Charlie nodded in agreement and said, “I think that might be possible too!”

Isaac asked curiously, “Do you think that you happened to encounter a ninja fighting with another ninja then?”

Charlie hesitated as he muttered, “I feel that it cannot possibly be so coincidental. I have a faint feeling that this matter might be somehow related to me.”

“It cannot be, right?” Isaac blurted out, “If you say so, does it mean that someone was trying to harm you but he failed to sense a greater danger while doing so?”

Charlie replied, “Who knows? That could be possible too. That is the reason why I feel that Nagoya is a little weird. We should wrap up our business here soon so that we can leave this place as soon as possible then!”

Isaac hummed slightly before he said, “Young master, I will start making all the necessary arrangements now. The medicinal herbs and materials will be arriving at the airport in the middle of the night. Trial production will start at the pharmaceutical factory early in the morning. As long as the trial production runs smoothly, then we will be able to leave this cursed place as soon as possible!”

“Okay.” Charlie sighed and then angrily muttered, “This is really damn annoying. I have been constantly worried ever since we arrived in Japan. If we do not leave this place in a hurry this time, then we might eventually get involved in the disputes of the wealthy and influential Japanese families.”

After that, Charlie waved his hand and said, “Alright then. You can go back first. Tell everyone to stay alert and be on their guards so that they can avoid making any mistakes!”

“Okay!”

After Isaac was done speaking, he left Charlie’s room.

At this time, Masatetsu could not help but feel slightly bewildered.

Masatetsu and his two juniors felt that Charlie was telling the truth.

There were four main reasons for this.

Firstly, it would be completely impossible for Charlie to retreat unscathed from a fight with Aota unscathed.

Secondly, it was impossible for Charlie to detect the bugs in the room. So, he had no reasons to lie or put on an act inside his room.

Thirdly, Charlie mentioned Aota’s ninja shoes and he even mentioned the hidden dagger at the tip of the sole of the ninja shoes! This was a very secretive feature for the ninja. Based on their understanding of Aota, it would be completely impossible for Aota to resort to using this last resort unless he was desperate, fighting for his life!

Fourthly, Charlie also mentioned that he heard many people fighting at that time. If Aota was all alone, this could only mean that he had been ambushed by a group of people. This could also explain the reason behind his sudden disappearance too.

After analyzing all of these points, Masatetsu gritted his teeth and said, “All of these point to a single fact. That is, we have already been targeted by another group of ninjas!”

At this time, second junior asked, “Senior, who do you think it could be then?”

Masatetsu thought for a moment before he said seriously, “We have not offended any other ninjutsu families. So, I guess the person who dealt with Aota is most likely an enemy of the Takahashi family!”

Third junior slapped his thigh immediately as he said, “Damn, could it be the Ito family then?”
