slapping faces and making acquaintances

Alex waited on the seat at the corridor' side. Ten minutes later, the door open, letting the man behind appears to Alex.

"Evans-sama? I'am Furi'ichi, Tokimori-sama attendant. Tokimori-sama and the counsel await you if you would follow me, please?" The mayor' attendant said, after bowing slightly and show Alex the way through a hand sign.

Passing the man, he waited for him to close the door before walking him to the room the meeting would take place.

-Counsel? They were never words of counsel in the memo you were given.- mentally frown CS at the attendant words.

'There shouldn't', Alex confirmed, the barest of frown showing on his face while his gaze fixes the path they took. 'I wasn't aware of the political inclination of the man before this, but it may make things slightly more difficult for us, at least until they push too far and I slap them in the face with the added documents.'

-Do you mean..? Ah, I see, *sigh* there always that type of people no matters the world, do they?- CS sighed while passably angry at the man they have yet to know but already categorised as an opponent.

'Regretfully, no matter the world, they would never lack morons and greedy pigs; let just see which one the mayor of this city fall into.'

~~~

After the mayor attendant took the lead, the duo passed a short office with a desk bearing 'Furi'ichi' tag' on. Pass the office through a door on the left side; Both men crossed a small corridor leading to the rest of the mayor office.

The left side was a simple wall with large windows giving on the park on the side of the town hall, while the right had a series of doors with different brass signboards, describing the office purpose and their actual affiliate worker's head.

After three simple doors, they stopped in front of a double one, where low muffled voices could be heard behind, but too low to be comprehensive for humans.

Silence immediatly fall as Furi'ichi knocked on it two times before opening.

As he lightly pushes both doors, the attendant slide to the right, designating the only left seat for Alex to take. As he enters, the attendant silently grabs both handle and close the door's back.

Taking a second to look at each occupant present, Alex didn't let their stoic face affecting the less before immediatly seating.

While he knows little of the language, he had the time to read through the old customs, and ever if wizarding ones, they took root in the same social circle before the establishment of the statue of secrecy. He had seen enough from their mannerism to know that they had a similar one here that the Japon of his past world.

CS smirked and chuckled evilly at the slight ticks he caught on corner' lips or eyes. Once seated, he gazed at them in order, starting from his right to his left.

The one immediatly on his right was a gruff man with an unkept mope of dark-greying hair. From the slightly mismatched and tighter suit, the callous on his hands, Alex could easily deduce that the man was more of a worker than an official. The few documents he saw confirmed his thoughts.

On the man' right, an overweight, balding man wearing a pair of thick glasses. Through his external appearance, man Alex thinks of the generic ntr villain scum; his appearance was far off. The man wore a finely cut brown pinstripe suit, white dress shirt and light blue tie. His beady eyes were unable to hide the greed and loathing he bore to Alex. Alex passing legitimacy prob gives him the confirmation of his hypothesis along with the man' name.

'So it's him, Shido Ichirou. Look like the typical shady businessman or politician.' I thought him disgruntled at the man idea and already on-going plan. Regretfully for the man, all would come to a stop today.

At the right of Ichirou was the actual mayor, seated face to Alex.

Like Ichirou, the man looked like a cliché personnage. The slight fleeting, anxious gaze and the barely seeable constant shaking was all Alex need to be sure that he was granted a new Fudge, with Ichirou as his new Malfoy. Not losing time over the city's head' with ass cheek's ready to take all his 'friend' would felt gracious to give him, Alex looked at the man he felt the more important.

-Seems that you will have a chance to know where we are, cannon-wise rapidly.- Commented CS, as both looked seriously at Takagi Souichiro. Like his manga counterpart, the man was a no-nonsense, intimidating man. His lean, muscled frame and predatory gaze gave Alex all the reason to trust that he was also an active bushido practitioner by it as a way of life or weapon management.

As Souichiro left, was the last man. Unlike the one he was facing, this one had a cleanly cut dark-grey stripped suit. From the header of the document, the man was a representant of a real estate agency.

~~~

The oppressing silence that fell on the room for the last minutes seems too heavy and uncomfortable for Tokimori to bear any longer, as the man broke in through a squeaky throat cleaning.

"You must be mister Evans, Alexender?" Asked the man, impressing Alex slightly to not Sutter and his adequate if shaky English. "We weren't waiting for you until tomorrow..." Added him uneasily, throwing a fleeting glance at Ichirou before returning his attention to Alex.

The Evans only raised a brow at the man word before taking his best imitation of Snape drawling voice.

"..And, why, do tell, that you were waiting for me tomorrow, when we clearly had a meeting scheduled from today, a private one, unlike this." Ichirou snorted before opening his mouth, only cut by Alex. "I don't think I asked you something, clearly, the vaulted Japanese education had been lacking in your early years for you to not only crash in a meeting you had no needed presence but also try to interrupts someone speaking to sprout disparaging comment. Do keep your thought in your mind, Shidou." Harshly said Alex in a calm voice displaying nothing more than disgust for the man but still keeping neutral.

Alex caught a flicker of appreciation in the Ultra-nationalist gaze while snorting at the mayor's cowering form.

-A spine less-coward, better slap them with it now and be done.- Said CS, and Alex agreed quickly, unwilling to lose more time with those people.

"I was about to kept things civilised between us, Tokimori-sama, but your evident lack of manners and disgusting behaviour leaves me no choice." Said Alex while slapping a document on the table and sliding it to the man.

~~~

All four other men looked from Alex to Tokimori with a different sentiment, but all wanted to know the document's content. Those feelings only rose when they saw the man turn pale and started to sweat and shake.

"As you could see", All gaze returned to Alex, two of them not liking the light smirk drawing on the boy's face. "Since I have inherited the lands of my great-granduncle, I have to be contacted before any decision was to be taken as of the future of those land. Durimaki-san, you and your agency will shortly communicate the charges you fall under, along with there are penalties for them.

As for you, Shido, the Minister had already been warned. You and your cabinet will fall under the government's jurisdiction until all the light on this situation could be done.

Chidori-san, you and your enterprise aren't needed anymore. Any on-going works and material already brought and done will fall on the last to pay."

The silence was rapidly broken by Ichirou angry overtake of the documents still present in the shaking mayor hands before his eyes rapidly run through it. The loud, slapping sound of his meaty hands on the table resounds in the room as he raised and pointed a shaking finger at Alex.

"Your dispectable scum! How dare you steal Japanese land! You're no..."

Equally raising, Alex poured all his presence in the man frame, erasing all sentiments of self rigours Ichirou tried to channel to hide his anger. The penetrating gaze and oppressing presence were rapidly eroding the man pride while Alex spoke in a still neutral voice.

"Meprisable, me? I'm not the roach that tried to poach my inheritance with the help of your buddy from the Furin real estate agency. As I have double nationality, I have all right to ask for those land, now mine, to fall under the Act of 1986, signed from both the nation I held from.

As of last month, the totality of the land I inherited is considerate as the British government's ambassador. Your illegal take over will be judged on the international court, as your country is unwilling to enter into war for the clear declaration of war you made in invading my propriety."

~~~

Alex world threw a cold in the heating meeting. Souichiro widens slightly at the new of what Ichirou had nearly started for his greed. He was aware that the man had made hostile attempts to take ownership of the newly vacated land from their rightful owner.

Until then, no one had heard of the man having any existing family; the state had thus naturally started to process the needed procedure to open the land to purchase.

Ichirou interest had been known for harbouring the need to signify his serious entry into the minister cabinet's candidature. An ultra-modern complex had started to raise off the ground. This new district was planned to be an economic boom for the island and city, and if an innocuous vila were to raise on the side of the mountain, few would complain, right?

Souichiro interest was much different. While separated from the mainland, those lands are actually hosting one of the country's oldest shrine. While not in perfect condition, the site was a historical relic that was now lost to the country. If it weren't for the fact, that not only, Ichirou political career was dead and six feet underground, but even is future as a free man more than threatened, Souichiro would have diced the man up in bits.

As he looks back at the young foreigner, Souichiro thoughts became muddled; only the fact that he was also Japanese was a win for the man.

'At least the shrine will not be totally gone from our country if I could somewhat convince him to either sell the land its sit on or extract a promise of keeping alive the historical relic.' Breaking out of his thoughts at the sound of the opening door, Souichiro looked at them, barely catching the vanishing sight of the young he wanted to speak off.

Hastily raising from his seat, as he knows today meeting was over and shouldn't even happen in the first time, he rapidly strides to the exit, surprised to see that he was already out of sight.

~~~

As he was about to exit the Town Hall, Alex attention was called by a strong and deep, measured voice.

"Excuse me!"

Stopping and turning around, Alex saw Souichiro Takagi walk briskly at him. Stopping at a respectable distance to him, the man slightly bows, presenting himself, even if he already know him, not that the man was aware.

"I'm Takagi Souichirou, Leader of the ultra-nationalist party of this city. I would like to talk about a certain point of your propriety." Said Openly Souichiro, looking for Alex to present himself.

"I am Alexander Evans, souichiro-san. What is the point on which you would like to spoke to me?" Responded him, while the older man led him outside, toward a car and men already waiting for him. When Souichiro men saw their leader conversing with a stranger, they immediately open the door, allowing the two some privacy, while the car inserts itself into the circulation and rapidly zoom back to the Takagi Estate.
