The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1791

As Charlie and Nanako strolled hand-in-hand in the quiet snowy night of Kyoto, Tokyo was still in turmoil.

At this moment, Machi was at home, anxiously waiting for news from the Fujibayashi ninjas. 1

The Fujibayashi family was even more anxious than h e was because up till now, they had lost ten ninjas, which were mostly from the younger generation of the family. 1

Ten ninjas might not seem to be a lot, but a family with ten male young descendants could be regarded a s a rather large family. 1

First of all, these ten young adults had at least one or two older generations above them, consisting of their grandparents, parents, uncles, and aunts, which added up to at least ten people. 3

Secondly, the ten young adults were all men. There were hardly any families who had all-male offsprings. If the ratio of men to women offsprings was one to one, there would be at least ten female descendants. 1

Thirdly, at least half of the ten male young adults were married and had children of their own. 2

In this way, a family must have at least fifty to sixty people before it could produce ten young male descendants. 3

Now that all the younger male members had been involved in this battle, the family’s self-defense ability had been drastically reduced. 4

Under these circumstances, their hands were tied to even protect themselves, let alone to allocate more manpower to protect Takahashi Machi. 2

Therefore, there was not a single ninja in Machi's house except for some bodyguards. 1

It was late at night, but Machi was not sleepy at all.

On one hand, he was still grieving the tragic death of his son, Eikichi. On the other hand, he was still waiting to see if he could get in touch with the missing Fujibayashi ninjas. 2

Subconsciously, he knew that the possibility of the Fujibayashi ninjas who had been sent to Kyoto being assassinated was very high. Still, deep down, he held a glimmer of hope.

He felt that he had yet to see any corpses lying around, so there was still a chance to turn the table, and perhaps, if he waited just a little longer, the ninjas would contact him.

At the same time, Yahiko had just fallen asleep when h e heard a knock on the door. 4

Agitated, he asked, "Who is it? What’s the matter at this late hour? If it's not important, let’s talk about it tomorrow!”

Hiroshi quickly said, "Ito-san, the police officer has come again, saying that they need to bring you in to d

o another round of questioning at the station regarding some cases. 3 "Another questioning?" Yahiko yelled angrily, "I've said all I have to say, and there's nothing more to say!" 3

Hiroshi explained, "Ito-san, they said that the Schulz family has been putting pressure on them regarding the kidnapping of their children and it might turn into an international diplomatic crisis, so they hope for your cooperation." 6

"An international diplomatic crisis?" 3

Upon hearing this, Yahiko cursed in exasperation, "D* mn, this is so annoying!"
