After passing the verification, Tawanna told Charlie Wade that Mitsui Yoshitaka’s younger brother, Mitsui Yoshiyasu, was being controlled by Hattori Hanzo and the Iga ninjas. She and Trevor had followed Mitsui Shinmei back to the Mitsui family manor.
While updating Charlie on the situation, she also expressed her gratitude to him once more. After hearing her thank yous, Charlie said, “After everything we’ve been through, make sure to get some good rest tonight.”
Tawanna had hoped to chat more with Charlie on WeChat, but since he didn’t seem interested, she wisely replied, “Okay, Mr. Ye. You should also get some rest. Today has been really busy. Thank you so much.”
When Charlie returned to the hotel, he found Dong Ruolin and Xiao Churan scrolling through social media in their room. They noticed many police helicopters flying nearby and guessed something unusual was happening, as it wasn’t normal for so many police officers to be around.
Seeing Charlie, Xiao Churan quickly asked, “Husband, did something happen at the dome? Social media is saying there are a lot of helicopters there, and they have videos showing many planes flying over. It’s pretty scary.”
Dong Ruolin chimed in, “Some people are saying there might have been an assassination attempt. They think someone was trying to assassinate Tawanna.”
Charlie smiled and replied, “That can’t be true. I was at the scene, and I didn’t see anything like that happening.”
Dong Ruolin then asked, “But what were all those police officers doing there? You must have seen them since you were right there.”
“Exercise.” To avoid worrying anyone and to keep the situation from escalating, Charlie Wade decided to lie. “The police are doing some kind of anti-terrorism exercise. I don’t have all the details since I was just talking to Mr. Mitsui about Feng Shui and came back as soon as we finished.”
As he spoke, he pretended to be curious, saying, “Is what people are saying online really that outrageous? I’ll go take a look.”
Charlie checked a few social media platforms and was surprised to see that news about the event was already spreading. Although no gunshots were heard, the large presence of police, including helicopters, made it hard to hide what was happening. Some people even recorded videos of the special police helicopter coming down from a nearby building.
Charlie realized that even if there was no solid evidence about Tawanna’s assassination, he couldn’t let people speculate on social media. While most didn’t know about the underground network, those connected to it would understand the situation. If someone leaked information anonymously, it could lead to a massive debate online. Regardless of the outcome, it wouldn’t be good for Tawanna.
So, he sent a message to Fei Kexin on WeChat, asking her to inform Mitsui Yoshitaka. He wanted Mitsui to issue a statement with the Metropolitan Police Department, saying that there would be an anti-terrorism drill at the Tokyo Dome that evening.
After all, the Tokyo Dome is the largest concert venue in Tokyo. Almost all top stars choose this place for their shows, making it a potential target for terrorist attacks.
It was common for anti-terrorism drills to take place in the area, of course.
Soon, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department shared the news about the exercise on TV and online. TV Tokyo, which was airing a variety show at the time, quickly interrupted with an emergency report: “We have an important update. At 10:35 PM tonight, the Tokyo anti-terrorism police held a rapid response drill at the Dome. This exercise involved simulating a situation where the Dome was hijacked or attacked by terrorists during a large performance. No one was informed ahead of time, including the special police officers involved, making the drill feel very realistic. The Tokyo Special Police successfully demonstrated their ability to respond quickly to emergencies, and the exercise concluded with the officers evacuating the site in an orderly manner. The Police Director praised the exercise highly and reassured the public not to be overly concerned!”
The video aired in multiple languages for about ten minutes. After seeing it, Dong Ruolin put her phone down, disappointed, and said, “What? I thought there was going to be some big news! I was ready for a juicy story, but it turned out to just be a drill.”
Xiao Churan smiled and replied, “It seems like Tokyo’s public safety is good, so the chances of something serious happening are low. Plus, we shouldn’t wish for bad things to happen to others.”
Dong Ruolin laughed and said, “That’s true! It’s not that I want something to happen; I just love gossip!”
As she spoke, she added, “By the way,
Charlie Wade, your video complaining about Tawanna went viral today! What you said made a lot of sense, and even some of Tawanna’s fans agree with you. People are now calling you ‘the man who educates Tawanna’ online. Many are curious about who you really are. If you showed your face and did live broadcasts now, you could become really popular! With millions of fans, you could even start live streaming.
Charlie smiled and replied, “I don’t want to be in the spotlight. It’s better to stay low-key. Besides, many so-called human rights organizations operate in extreme ways. I don’t want to get involved with them in real life.”
“That’s true,” Dong Ruolin nodded. “I think some environmental protection groups in Europe are pretty extreme. They stop all the cars on the road, even blocking ambulances. Don’t they realize that if someone gets sick, you need to call an ambulance?”
“Exactly,” Charlie said with a smile. “Most extreme environmentalists aren’t true environmentalists. They simply use it as a way to make a living. There’s usually money behind them. For example, if European investors want to promote nuclear power, they get environmentalists to attack coal plants. If they want to push for new energy sources, the environmentalists will go after traditional energy. And if they want to promote lab-grown meat in the future, you can bet these same environmentalists will protest against traditional farming.”
Dong Ruolin agreed, “That makes sense. Most of them are just a bunch of…”
The news on TV quickly grabbed everyone’s attention, putting an end to the gossip that had been swirling around. Instead of discussing the rumors of a violent battle that resulted in one or two hundred deaths, people found it easier to accept the official story of a training exercise.
Once officials clarified the situation, the chatter and doubts online faded away, and the issue was quickly put to rest. Soon after, Tawanna’s team began sharing a lot of official photos and videos from her performance.
Tawanna is a major star, and when her stunning videos and photos were released, her fans quickly made her performance the top story on major platforms. This shift in focus also meant that the public’s attention was diverted from the special police incident.
Charlie Wade couldn’t help but admire Tawanna’s incredible influence. Just a few photos and videos from her performance were enough to capture most people’s interest. If she were to collaborate with Changying Automobile for a concert in China, it would likely boost the brand’s recognition like never before!
