Nagata-cho, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, under the guidance of the Chief Cabinet Secretary, eagerly came to the office of the Prime Minister in the official residence. As soon as he entered the door, he could not restrain his excitement, and then reported to the Prime Minister himself:

"Prime Minister, we have just learned from the ambassador of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the UK that Mr. Ulyanov, the former Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of the Soviet Union, will arrive in Japan in the near future. It is said that ... it is for the engagement of the youngest daughter!"

"What, there is such a good thing..."

Hearing the report of the subordinate, the Prime Minister could not help but stood up in surprise, he couldn't believe his ears. Unexpectedly, Mr. Ulyanov, who has been retired for many years, would come to Japan for personal affairs. Although he is an iconic figure in the former Soviet Union, he himself has a strong political and business power in Europe and the United States. In addition to his personal connections, several foundations under his control have unimaginably huge financial resources. If nothing else, the Gorky Aerospace Foundation under his name controls and operates the legacy of the former Soviet Union. The crystallization of human technology and the Mir orbiting space station. This huge expenditure alone is enough to show how strong his strength is.

Although Mr. Ulyanov has decided not to hold any government positions due to his advanced age, his two-term global political and business connections are an existence that no politician can ignore. So when the Prime Minister heard that such a big man would visit Japan for the sake of his little daughter, the Prime Minister immediately realized what an important opportunity this would be.

"Wait a minute, have you investigated Ulyanov's daughter? Is she in Japan now?"

"Hey, according to the information we got from the Immigration Bureau of the Ministry of Justice, Mr. Ulyanov's youngest daughter came to Tokyo about a year ago, and since then...she has been in Ginza. Working in a gallery, although we still can't determine who she is dating, but...we have reason to believe that her engagement partner is likely to be a Japanese!"

"Nani? That's...that's a lot of fun, so...do you know when Mr. Ulyanov arrived in Japan?"

"It is said that it has taken off from London, and it is expected... It should arrive tomorrow!"

"Help me arrange it, I will go to the airport to meet you..."

...

Almost when the Prime Minister was feeling agitated by the arrival of Mr. Ulyanov, Lin Xiuyi, who came to Yuanzhizhu's house for the first time as a guest, was staring at the sturdy ginkgo tree in his room. The tree is amazed. It is not uncommon to grow plants at home, but it is a bit special to place such a tall tree in your living room, especially in the high-priced hemp platinum area, Owning such a luxurious apartment is even more enviable.

"I really can't believe...the living room can be arranged like this!"

"Lin Xiuyi stood by the tree trunk, raised his head and looked up at the top of the canopy. Looking up from below, he could see the blue sky outside through the skylight at the top of the canopy. It seems that even the skylight above is for this purpose. It was specially designed for the lighting of a ginkgo tree!”

"Is there anything strange? This ginkgo has been planted in the courtyard of my house since I was very young, and then it suddenly showed signs of withering for unknown reasons, so... I transplanted it into my new plant. The apartment is here. At that time... it was a waste of time!"

"What an amazing idea! But...if it was me, maybe I would choose another method, such as grafting into smaller ones and planting them in flower pots!"

...

Just when Lin Xiuyi was still thinking about this big tree, Yuan Zhizhu handed him a glass of whisky. The whisky that had been diluted with ice water after the entrance had a faint aroma of wine, and it was just fine to drink. Throat. This can't help but remind Lin Xiuyi of the kind of whisky he drank in the flower cage house of the Ginza Club when he was investigating the case of Toshima Construction. It seemed to be the same way to drink it at the time. The faint taste of wine was mixed with a lot of ice. Although water is also drinking, the wine is only used to moisten the throat. Basically, no matter how you drink it, you will not get drunk.

"It's a special way to drink, I thought you would like pure!"

"Let's talk about business first, and if you want a drink later, I'll accompany you at any time..."

When Lin Xiuyi and Yuan Zhizhu slowly walked to the position of the sofa, and then sat opposite each other, Yuan Zhizhu said to Lin Xiuyi with an embarrassed expression:

"Speaking of which, this engagement is really hasty, I'm not sure about the family's attitude towards Katya, and Katya has always been reluctant to tell me about his family, so if possible, I would like to ...I think... Could you please ask Kirishima-san first, at least, help me ask what kind of people Katya's parents are, so that I can explain to my father and mother!"

"You called me here, so it was for this!"

Lin Xiuyi stood up with some understanding, and then happily said to Yuan Zhizhu:

"Don't worry, I'll go to Lifan right now and ask you what's going on at Miss Ekaterina's house! By the way, when will his father come over! Do you want to follow Miss Ekaterina ahead of time? How about meeting him?"

"Eh... this, do you think it's appropriate?"

"There shouldn't be anything inappropriate, it's the etiquette to take the initiative to visit the other party!"

"Um... well, but I better be prepared!"

When Lin Xiuyi finally left Yuan Zhizhu's house, he took out his mobile phone as soon as he got in the car and found Li Fan's number, and then called the other party's number.

"Moses Moses?"

"Uh...it's me, Lifan! Do you have time today? I'm afraid I have something to discuss with you!"

"Me too~lightnovelpub.net~ classmate Xiuyi! Just now Katya was still asking me if I should come to you for consultation, may I ask... Do you have time tonight? If it's convenient, come and sit here in Ginza. Sit down!"

"Well... no problem, I'll go right now!"

Hearing that Li Fan also had time to meet with himself, Lin Xiuyi could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. No matter what, he and Li Fan still had a certain friendship. Judging from the face of his former classmates, Li Fan should reveal something about Katya to himself. thing!

... When Lin Xiuyi drove Gen Zhizhu's car slowly out of the underground parking lot of the apartment, he drove the car onto the main road leading to Ginza. At this time, Lin Xiuyi, who was thinking about how to ask Li Fan about Ekaterina's family situation, may never have imagined that the secret that he and Mingmei had kept for a long time was being discovered bit by bit by two reporters. And soon, it will bring them a big trouble.
