CHAPTER 2022 SCORPION BEAUTY

“Master, what's wrong?” Yuri immediately asked when she noticed the change of expression on Jared's face.

“It looks like we have a guest,” Jared uttered with a smirk.

“A guest?” Yuri followed Jared's line of sight and turned her head to the door with a puzzled look but saw no one.

“I don't see anyone by the door, Master,” Yuri said, looking confused.

“Our guest should be arriving in no time!” Jared said.

All of a sudden, he reached out and released an invisible burst of energy at the wall.

A figure suddenly appeared on the once-empty wall, and with a quick leap, he landed on the ground and retreated at lightning speed!

“We have an intruder here!” Yuri exclaimed.

Upon noticing that, members of the Watanabe family gave chase to the figure. Ryosuke knitted his brows and ran after the intruder.

Not long after, Jared heard the sound of fighting, and before he knew it, Ryosuke appeared, escorting a man in a tight-fitting suit.

Despite being in captivity, the man remained composed and displayed no signs of fear at all.

“Who are you? Why did you sneak into the Watanabe residence?” Ryosuke asked while staring at the man.

The man gave Ryosuke an icy glare but did not utter a word. He tilted his head, revealing a tattoo on his neck.

It was a tattoo of a scorpion with a long tail that seemed to have been carved deep into the skin.

Ryosuke's expression changed when he saw the tattoo.

“Scorpion? You work for Mieko?” Ryosuke was taken aback.

The man sneered, “Are you not going to release me now that you know who I am? Otherwise, you'll face the wrath of Ms. Harumi.”

Jared was repulsed by the man's arrogance.

He turned to Ryosuke and asked, “Ryosuke, who is this Ms. Harumi?”

“Master, Mieko Harumi heads the intelligence department at Thousand Crane Shrine, overseeing the collection of intel from families beneath the shrine. The department employs highly-skilled individuals as spies, all of whom bear a scorpion tattoo. Mieko is known for her ruthless demeanor, but her striking beauty also commands attention. As a result, she's earned the nickname Scorpion Beauty among those who know her,” Ryosuke explained in detail.

“It looks like the shrine already has begun to suspect you,” Jared said with a faint smile.

“I guess so.” Ryosuke nodded in response.
