"It's a demonstration; it can't fly, and it can't shoot."
"Wait, if they can't fly or shoot, what can you make them do? They can't just be looked at like giant figurines."
[Shinomiya Un'taka's mood was like a rollercoaster, going up and down.]
The senator certainly won't be satisfied if his drones don't perform well.
[They might even feel like they're fooling him, like tricking someone into buying an unfinished building.]
"I can have them salute you and the senator and say 'thank you for your hard work,' like during military training."
"What's the use of this, Qiuyue? This is different from what you promised me before."
[Akizuki Kozo ignored Shinomiya Un'taka's words and instead looked at an optimized and enhanced electric whip on the table.]
This electric whip is noticeably thicker and larger than the previous one. The flashing blue arcs on its surface clearly indicate its increased power, much like the difference between 4G and 5G internet speeds.
"First you told me you could make an Iron Man suit, then you said making drones would be even better, and now you're saying drones can only be used for a salute and a thank you for your hard work."
"I'm not running a toy store, I'm running a weapons business."
Because the senator was still nearby, Shinomiya Un'taka could only speak in a low voice, but one could still hear the rekindled dissatisfaction and anger in his deep voice.
"Everything will be alright."
[Akizuki Kozo only gave a perfunctory answer to Shinomiya Un'taka.]
"What I want is..."
Before Shinomiya Un'taka could finish speaking, Akizuki Kozo hung up the phone.
On the golf course, Shinomiya Un'taka's face darkened as he watched the phone call end, but remembering the senator was right there, he quickly composed himself.
"Alright, alright, Akizuki Kozo, when I come to see you tomorrow, you'd better have something of value to offer, or I'll throw you into the sea to feed the fish."
Kaguya Shinomiya felt quite pleased to see Untaka Shinomiya's discomfiture, even though Untaka was nominally her brother.
But let alone her nominal older brother, Shinomiya Un'taka, even her father, Shinomiya Kaguya, didn't like her much.
After all, the concept of "family" doesn't exist in the Shinomiya family.
The following day, Shinomiya Un'yō, accompanied by two bodyguards, headed to Akizuki Kōzō's workplace. His face darkened, and he walked exceptionally fast, his leather shoes clicking loudly on the ground.
【“Beep beep beep.”】
[Shinomiya Un'yō walked to the room that Akizuki Kōzō had brought, took out his access card, swiped it on the door, and opened the door to find Akizuki Kōzō relaxing on the bed.]
"They hung up on me yesterday, pretty quickly."
"Take his coat, shoes, bed, and everything else."
[Shinomiya Un'yō said to the two bodyguards, "Akizuki Kozo is just an ordinary person, so naturally he won't put up a fight."]
"I took your things. How do you feel? Is it difficult? That's how I feel right now."
[It's only because Akizuki Kozo still has value that things have changed. Otherwise, given what happened yesterday when he hung up on him, if it were anyone else without value, Shinomiya Un'taka would have had them eliminated by Naizutsu.]
"What you promised me before is completely different from what you said on the phone yesterday. If all you can do is salute and say a few words, aren't you just a big toy?"
[Shinomiya Un'yō said to Akizuki Kōzō, who was lying on the bed with an indifferent expression.]
"I saved your life."
"At first, I asked you to make me a combat suit, but you didn't. Then you said you'd make a drone, but it turned out to be just like a toy."
"I don't know if you're a genius or a fraud, but it doesn't matter now, because I've just encountered something really good."
"I've acquired a device from Zhuge Cong myself. Now all your drones will just be supporting characters to me. Do you know what that means?"
"I have to go now. I'll come back after the expo and we can discuss your future plans properly."
"See these two? They're your nannies. It's best not to mess with them, but you can try it if you want."
"I hope I'll come back in a good mood, and that you'll be able to cooperate well with me instead of being like this now."
"Otherwise, you'll go back to where you started, a dead man."

After finishing his sentence, Shinomiya Un'taka turned and left.
Throughout the entire ordeal, Akizuki Kozo remained completely silent, displaying an indifferent expression. After Shinomiya Un'taka left, Akizuki Kozo glanced at the two "nannies" and gave a slight smile.
"Just a foil; you'll see what that is in time."
[Akizuki Kozo thought to himself.]
"It's estimated that the drones that Shinomiya Un'taka took to the Zhuge exhibition site have all been tampered with by Akizuki Kozo."
"At that time, I estimate that all those drones will be remotely controlled by Kozo Akizuki."
"Yesterday, Akizuki Kozo also said that because he knew that Shinomiya Untaka would not allow something that was almost like a toy to be shown to the senator."
"Is it to avoid being exposed, or is he thinking of giving Shinomiya Untaka a big surprise? After all, from beginning to end, Akizuki Kozo never really wanted to work under Shinomiya Untaka."
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka stared at the light screen, completely unaware of what the embellishments he had brought were.
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka knew that with this move, Akizuki Kozo's main goal was to deal with Zhuge Cong, but he could also take the opportunity to ruin Shinomiya Un'taka's career.
After all, what can a large group of runaway drones do?
Moreover, Shinomiya Un'yō is no longer the head of the Shinomiya family. Although it is unknown who has succeeded as the head of the Shinomiya family, as long as Shinomiya Un'yō is not the head of the family.
Then Shinomiya Yunying will definitely fail, because the Shinomiya family will choose to ignore Shinomiya Yunying and kick him out to protect the reputation of the Shinomiya Industrial Group.
After all, the Zhuge Exhibition will certainly attract many celebrities from all walks of life, and some young masters and ladies from large corporations may also come to join in the fun.
"Trying to control a crazy person for your own benefit without having the corresponding ability to manage them is digging your own grave."
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka thought as he looked at Shinomiya Un'taka on the light screen.
"Sir, you've received a call from an unknown number."
[Zhuge Cong answered the phone directly. If it was a scam call, he would just play along, and then check the IP address to catch them all.]
"Who is it?"
"Zhuge Cong, are you alright? I doubled the rotation speed."
Instead of the expected questions about debts, I heard a deep male voice.
[Zhuge Cong remembered that the voice belonged to Akizuki Kozo, who had attacked him.]
But wasn't Akizuki Kozo already dead in prison?
"Akizuki Kozo, weren't you dead? You're still so energetic."
"Same to you."
"I haven't even seen you die yet. How does palladium poisoning feel?"
"I did double the RPM as you said. You yourself said that doubling the RPM would result in more power, which is indeed a good suggestion."
[In the small room, Akizuki Kozo sat on the floor making a phone call to Zhuge Cong, while two "nannies" listened in.]
"Tracking him."
[Zhuge Cong gave the instructions to Jarvis.]
"Yes, sir."
"The Zhuge Group is about to be overthrown."
"Has Jarvis found out where Akizuki Kozo is?"
[Zhuge Cong did not respond to Akizuki Kozo's words but was talking to Jarvis.]
"Tracking in progress."
"Fine, let's see how you try to overturn this. Let's have a fight offline."
[Zhuge Cong wanted to stall Akizuki Kozo for the other party to discover that he was being tracked by his address.]
"Of course, I hope you're ready too."
[Akizuki Kozo hung up the phone just before Jarvis pinpointed his location. A few more seconds and he would have been able to track him down, but now he knew roughly where he was.]
150: Hachiman Hikigaya, start!
Zhuge Cong had a vague feeling that something bad was about to happen.
[I saw an advertisement flashing on the screen in front of me. The advertisement featured Shinomiya Untaka with his arms crossed, and behind him were the words "Maintain Peace" in large characters.]
"Jarvis, could you check if Shinomiya Un'taka owns any property at the address we traced back to when we were tracking Akizuki Kozo?"
[A series of ideas suddenly popped into Zhuge Cong's mind, and he immediately spoke to Jarvis.]
"Yes, sir, we are initiating the inquiry."
"Inquiry complete, sir. There are three properties in this area owned by Shinomiya Un'ei."
After listening to Jarvis's words, Zhuge Cong roughly guessed that the news report he had seen about the death of Akizuki Kozo was probably just a scapegoat, since he had been blown to pieces.
The real Akizuki Kozo was secretly taken out of prison by Shinomiya Untaka, who probably had his eye on Akizuki Kozo's abilities.
[Then Zhuge Cong directly picked up the new miniature arc reactor from the side and installed it into his chest.]
