Hot Blood: Dominate the World with Your Fists

Chapter 183: Confess Everything, Harada Noboru Returns

In Yamato's slightly shabby motorcycle repair shop that exudes a mechanical atmosphere, Cobra and other members of the Sanno Federation are pacing back and forth anxiously in the shop, hoping that their misguided companions will arrive soon.

A short while later, Harada Noboru slowly walked into the repair shop, filled with memories and anticipation. When he saw the familiar, haunting figure of Miho Hirata Kaoru, his eyes instantly lit up, and a deep, urgent cry erupted from the depths of his throat—"Miho!"

Then, he rushed towards Miho recklessly, his speed so fast that it seemed as if he wanted to pour out all the thoughts and concerns that had been accumulated in his heart for a long time. The moment he hugged Miho Hirata Kaoru tightly in his arms, his body trembled violently, and he was so excited that he couldn't say a word. He just hugged her tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear again if he let go.

Miho Hirata Kaoru was equally unable to contain the surging emotion within her. Her arms seemed to come alive as she tightly embraced Harada Noboru, tears streaming down like a flood, soaking both of their clothes. In that moment, time seemed to stand still, with only the sounds of their heartbeats and breathing intertwined, revealing the deep and sincere feelings between them.

After a long while, immersed in this warmth and touching feeling, Harada Noboru suddenly seemed to remember something important. He quickly lowered his head and asked Miho Hirata Kaoru carefully, "Miho, where have you been recently? I've been looking for you everywhere recently. I'm really worried about you."

Miho Hirata Kaoru raised her head slightly, tears glistening in her eyes. Without any hesitation, she said frankly: "I...my family borrowed high-interest loans. I had no choice but to work for the Doubt organization to repay the debt. Every day I live a life worse than death." She told Harada Noboru everything she had experienced without reservation.

"So you're in Doubt. I was wondering why I couldn't find any information about you." Harada immediately understood. No wonder he couldn't find Miho. So it was in this place.

Doubt, while not a subsidiary of the Ie-mura Association, is its black glove. The Ie-mura Association's Red Rams are trafficked through Doubt. Furthermore, the high-quality women captured are carefully selected by the Ie-mura Association's top brass before being sold. That's why he couldn't find any information about Miho.

The top brass of the Iemurai Association had known about this for a long time, but they had deliberately concealed the news. Perhaps their efforts to find Miho made him look like a clown. Realizing this, Harada Noboru was furious, even harboring murderous intent towards the top brass of the Iemurai Association.

After the two of them calmed down a little, Cobra and Yamato came up and said in unison: "Aden, come back. This is your home."

Hearing Cobra and Yamato's words, Harada's thoughts returned to his childhood, when he was most lonely and helpless, when Cobra and Yamato helped him. And after years of brotherhood, Harada finally decided to confess everything to Cobra and the others.

"So, Arden, you joined the Iemurai Society to find a way to protect us while searching for Miho?"

After Harada Noboru roughly explained why he joined the Ie-mura Association, Cobra, Yamato and others immediately believed him, including Atan who almost lost his life, because he was his brother after all.

"I'm sorry, but after I entered the Ie-mura Association, I realized it was too large. You were no match for me. I was just trying to protect everyone." Harada Noboru said as he walked up to A-tan and bowed to apologize: "I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been discovered at all."

"Yeah, it's okay, hahaha." A Tan didn't know what to say and could only respond with laughter.

"So, you won't leave again this time?" Cobra said.

"Everyone, can you still accept me?" Harada Noboru asked with his head down.

"Of course!" Yamato was the first to speak. The others also nodded in welcome.

Harada Noboru raised his head and smiled brightly, "Everyone, I'm back."

"Haha, Arden. Come to my house and eat the rice balls my mother made. You haven't eaten them for a long time." Yamato immediately greeted Harada Den.

"Although I want to go too, I have some things to do here." Harada Noboru said, "Do you know any news about Chiharu?"

"Hmm? Chiharu?"

"That bastard disappeared a long time ago, and I can't even get through to him on the phone!"

"I guess he ran away!"

When it comes to Chiharu, the Sanno Federation is full of complaints, and even Yamato is a little dissatisfied. After all, Chiharu is just a replacement for Harada Noboru, and their relationship is far less than in the original.

"He's dead. His body was found by the village council." Harada Noboru revealed Chiharu's whereabouts.

"What?" Even A Tie, who always disliked Qian Qing, was surprised.

"Well, I sent Chiharu to the factory on Wuming Street to look for evidence that Shiwan had secretly diverted the village association's funds. I also wanted to stir up trouble between Sanwang and the White Demon. But I didn't expect her to disappear forever."

"Later, I found out that in addition to the information about the Red Rams, the SD card also contained transaction information about Kawada, a veteran of the Ie-mura Association. That's why the Ie-mura Association was so anxious."

"When I found out, I wanted to delete the message in advance, but I didn't expect you to find it."

After hearing what Harada Noboru said, Cobra and the others just sighed, no one felt sorry for Chiharu's death. After all, no matter what, Chiharu's betrayal of Sanno was a fact.

. . . . . . . .

The next day, in Naomi's cafe.

Dongye Huanglong came here on a motorcycle.

"You're here." Naomi saw Higashino Arairyu and came up to greet him happily.

"Ah, I'm here. Are you free to go out and play later?" Dongye Huanglong also greeted and then asked.

"Okay." Naomi agreed readily.

"Oh, their relationship is so good?" Yamato was a little surprised.

Cobra, Harada Noboru, Atan Atan and the others all noticed something was wrong. How could this relationship be better than that with Yamato? However, they all kept silent, after all, this was Yamato's own business.

"It seems that you have left the village association." Higashino Arairyu noticed Harada Noboru who was present.

"what."

"You have to be careful, Jiacun will not let you go easily." Dongye Huanglong reminded.

"I understand." Harada Noboru also understood this and nodded.

"Okay, Cobra, what do you want to tell me?" Dongye Huanglong looked at Cobra.

Cobra took a deep breath, "We have thought it through. We, the Sanwang Federation, will join your forces."

"Well. Let me be frank with you. Since you have joined my forces, you must never betray me." Dongye Huanglong said in a serious tone.

This is not an exaggeration. In the original work, Cobra and Yamato are labeled as members of the Infinite Organization. Who knows whether they will turn against Amber when fighting.

"I've thought it through. I won't betray you." Cobra said firmly.

"Then welcome to join us." Dongye Huanglong smiled and extended his hand.
