Naturally, I refuse meeting with suspicious people from the beginning. Or should I say that I don’t meet with people without any introducer at all? That’s the safest way Jii-chan said.
But then again, there are those peculiar referrals Peculiar?
People from the nobility and managers of other companies ask me saying they’re this kind of person, meet them, but of course, even with such introductions, I don’t meet with overly suspicious people. However. What?
There are a lot of complex cases. Some make plans to meet me by getting to know my acquaintances. It’s not overly suspicious, but it’s not a clear identity either. Even if I refuse, I would have to do it in the face of the referrer so I can’t just say no for no reason There’s no definite proof that they’re suspicious people, but since there’s a referrer, then he’s forced to meet them.
In such cases, it would be difficult to refuse
Umu, I can understand that Old man Kira nodded.
In such cases, what do you do, Kira? Jii-chan asked the white-haired monk.
In my case, I first have my secretary meet them instead of me. My secretary will check on their character, and if they’re worthy to meet with me, and if they are, then we can meet up I wonder if this old man is from a nobility? Or maybe, he’s an owner of an enterprise.
Anyway, if they can show results when talking to my secretary, then that saves the face of the referrer The old man said. Jii-chan.
That’s how I basically do it too. However, I give that role, not to my secretary but Yazawa Yazawa-san’s the one meeting with people in place of Jii-chan. He makes the decision whether they’re worthy of meeting with Jii-chan.
Meaning, to the Kouzuki house, this role is the job of Kouzuki SS One of the duties of Jii-chan’s guards.
So, I want to pass Yazawa’s job to you, Kou To me?
That said, the people who want to meet with me are in this hotel. You’re going to meet with those people, and make your decisions on whether they’re worthy to meet me or not I’m checking people?
Of course, you can’t just say good, or bad. You’ll have to be clear with what made you decide whether you pass or reject them from meeting me
Umu, indeed. If you can’t verbalize how you feel from the other person, we won’t be able to understand Old man Kira told me. Chapter 1181. Short Series A Human Success Part 4 Chapter 1181. Short Series A Human Success Part 4
So far, you only evaluate people based on your instincts, saying that the other person is suspicious and the like Jii-chan speaks to me.
Of course, instinct is valuable. I don’t trust people who my instinct says that they’re different, and I don’t let them get close to me again
Umu, that applies to me too Kira, the old man who’s already 80 years old and is a monk, and yet, his white hair is still thick, nodded.
However, if it’s a person that’s introduced to you, then you need a clear reason to reject them. The referrer won’t accept the reason that you felt that they’re suspicious Oh, I see. There’s the honor of the referrer that says please meet this person to Jii-chan.
You have to make it clear to the other party why Yazawa did the meeting instead of me, and why he judged that they’re not good people. The referrer could’ve been deceived by that person as well after all Oh yeah, bad guys could just go after Jii-chan’s acquaintance in the nobility, or enterprise managers and deceive them. Then, expanding from that, they could make Jii-chan their next target.
You have to make it clear and easy to understand when conveying the problem with a person Jii-chan said.
Otherwise, if the other party is a villain, they’ll spread their self-serving stories such as The Kouzuki house are hard headed-people, or The person in charge was incapable of understanding my proposal, or They were jealous because I was too competent For bad guys, being able to contact the Kouzuki house can be used to advertise their skills. Even if Jii-chan didn’t meet them and Yazawa-san kicked them off. They can tell people around them that the Kouzuki house is stupid, they can’t understand what I’m proposing
That’s why your assessment has to be distinct. It felt suspicious, can be translated as It just happened that the person in charge in the Kouzuki house wasn’t feeling well I see.
It’s the same when it comes to subordinates Old man Kira speaks up.
If you’re to own the Kouzuki SS, then you need to be clear with your instructions to the people in the company. Saying That person is suspicious, will only confuse your subordinates. You have to be clear what’s that suspicion you’re feeling
Indeed. If your instructions are unclear, your subordinates will ask What do we do? and become unable to decide Jii-chan said.
Yeah got it I replied.
By the way, the meeting time will be in fifteen minutes. Don’t take more than that. If the other party just wants to talk, then it’s a waste of time.
Umu, Kouzuki’s right. You can see what kind of person the other party is when you talk to them for fifteen minutes. No, you have to
If you don’t set a time limit like that, you’ll end up spending your life listening to people all the time The two old men told me.
For now, you can sit together with Yazawa during the meeting. Whatever the circumstances may be, I won’t ask you to go in there alone Oh, that helps. It’s a little scary to have me, a high-school boy meet with people who want a meeting with Jii-chan by myself.
Please take care of me, Yazawa-san I bow my head to Yazawa-san.
Please do, Yazawa
Yes, Kakka Yazawa-san replied to Jii-chan
Then, go to the lower floor. There’s already a visitor requesting to meet me today
Umu, we’ll be watching here Jii-chan and old man Kira said. Normally, this is left to Yazawa-san. Jii-chan doesn’t go watch on the cameras. I knew it. It’s a test.
Then, let’s go Yazawa-san called me.
Yes, let’s I bowed to the two old men and stood up.
Where are you going? Agnes looked at me from the table near the window and said.
We’re about to eat parfait
I’ll go meet some guests on the lower floor. I’ll be back soon I said.
Then, Agnes won’t eat parfait and wait Err.
You’re only on the lower floor for fifteen or twenty minutes, right? So, we’ll predict the time the room service comes in so we can eat when you come back Katsuko-nee said with a smile.
It’s not delicious unless we’re all together! Agnes.
You want to eat the deluxe parfait too, right? Oh, should I ask for hot tea instead? It’s Shige-chan’s treat after all Katsuko-nee asked Jii-chan jokingly.
Whichever pleases you, I’ll ask for coffee
Then, I’ll take coffee too Old man Kira said.
Yes, certainly. Then let’s order together Katsuko-nee goes to the phone in the room.
Sensei, should Luna and I go with you? Yomi asked worriedly. Well, having the girls with Miko power will be reassuring, but. This is my test, so.
Thanks, But, you girls should stay here I refused Yomi.
Uhm, Kuromori-sama. Good luck Koyomi-chan told me.
Don’t be surprised, okay? Hmm? Oh right. Koyomi-chan already knew who Jii-chan’s making me meet up with. Meaning, the other party is someone famous enough that this 12-year-old girl knows them?
Don’t. Koyomi-chan. That’s enough hints. Don’t hinder the fun of the two old men Katsuko-nee says while taking the phone.
Anyway, we’re going. We’ll be back I told everyone, then bowed to Jii-chan again. Then I left the room with Yazawa-san.
Still, you look so normal and yet, you’re so absurd Yazawa-san smiled at me when we entered the corridor.
From our investigation, the girls with the blood of the Takakura shrine maidens are all mentally unstable. And yet, you stabilized them completely Huh?
Seki-kun’s reporting to me periodically. So Kakka decided to sponsor those mentally stable girls, and that’s why he’s here today He’s talking about the old man.
If not, that cautious man would never want the shrine maidens to be in the same room as him. It seems that he’s amusing himself with you Meaning, that old man Kira came over just to watch this test? Oh, I shouldn’t think about it now. Let’s focus on what I have on hand. Even this could just be a trap from Yazawa-san to distract me. Yazawa-san’s coming with me to do the meetup with the person who wanted a meeting with Jii-chan, but. He’s not my ally here. Yazawa-san is also one of the examiners.
