Chapter 961: Chapter 102: Not HonestNext, Li Yifei and his party continued westward, stopping and going, perfectly embodying the look of tourists, never in a hurry to rush their journey, and surprisingly encountered several inspections along the way, all of which they passed smoothly.
Suzuki Kawako felt somewhat dissatisfied after encountering several checks, saying, "Whatâs going on? Why are there so many police officers?"
Aoki Reiko then said, "It seems like thereâs some issue, and theyâre especially thorough with foreigners. The two cars that were inspected with us just now passed through very quickly, but as soon as they found out Mr. Mu Fei and his group were Taiwanese, they immediately inspected very closely."

"What is this all about? Mr. Mu Fei, our country doesnât have any special treatment for foreign investors. I guess it must be something special that happened, related to some foreigners, thatâs why."
Li Yifei nodded and said, "We can understand that point, and it doesnât affect our sightseeing. Itâs right for us to cooperate a bit."
The day finally passed, and Li Yifei knew that the next day would probably be even harder. Today it was just identity checks, with Suzuki Kawako providing proof, without an inspection of the vehicleâs contents. If they encountered an inspection of the items inside the vehicle tomorrow, it would probably not be so easy to bluff their way through.
What made Li Yifei relieved was that the military wasnât involved on this side, judging that Japanâs authorities were probably more focused on the port area. After all, to get things out of Tokyo, the fastest way to transport goods was to take them from the nearest coast. And as for them carrying goods openly while sightseeing in Japan, it wouldnât attract much attention.
The next day, Li Yifeiâs party traveled even slower, taking detours to sightsee in scenic areas, which meant they covered less distance in a day and encountered fewer inspections.
By the third day, even if Li Yifei and his group encountered the police, they were no longer inspected because the two campervans didnât seem suspicious at all. The police had already shared their information, and the two campervans had become exempt from inspection.
However, Li Yifei did not dare to be careless and did not speed up the journey, continuing leisurely sightseeing and traveling.
From east to west, Japan is only three hundred kilometers, and of course, Li Yifeiâs group didnât travel in a straight line. Even so, their total distance wouldnât exceed five hundred kilometers. Normally, if just rushing through, they could traverse from Tokyo to the West Coast in less than a day, but it took Li Yifei and his group a full four days, averaging just over a hundred kilometers per day.
Such expenditure was still worth it, as they didnât encounter any troubles.
Li Yifeiâs objective this time was to ensure the safe return of the goods to his home country. If an accident occurred and they clashed with Japanese police and military forces, that would be a whole heap of trouble, and it would be uncertain whether he could bring the goods back.
The two campervans stopped on an open space by the roadside, below which was a beach. Li Yifei, Suzuki Kawako, and Aoki Reiko sat on the beach, around a bonfire, with a grill set up above it. The aroma of grilled meat, grilled fish, and grilled vegetables was very appetizing.
Li Yifeiâs four companions were also having a bonfire nearby, grilling food enthusiastically. They were all in good spirits; tonight, the goods would be moved onto the ship. If they werenât discovered once on the ship, then there would be no issues at all.
Aoki Reiko and Suzuki Kawako were in high spirits too, having had a lot of fun these past few days. Although Suzuki Kawako had expressed her affection for Li Yifei several times, and Li Yifei had clearly stated that he didnât wish to have a girlfriend, which somewhat disappointed Suzuki Kawakoâa man like him was really quite captivating to women.
"Mr. Mu Fei, I know you donât fancy me, I am not pretty enough, and my figure isnât great either, but Reiko has both looks and figure; havenât you really considered it?"
Aoki Reiko gave Suzuki Kawako a push, saying reproachfully, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Li Yifei smiled softly and said, "In my eyes, you are both lovely Japanese girls. Being able to travel with you for these past few days has made me very happy. Havenât you noticed? Friendship often makes for the most comfortable company. If there were other thoughts involved, it wouldnât be so comfortable."
Aoki Reiko nodded repeatedly, saying, "Exactly, exactly. Mr. Mu Fei, I wholeheartedly agree with what you said. Iâve never met a man who could interact with me like this; it really made me feel relaxed. I havenât had such an easygoing time in a while."
Suzuki Kawako pouted and said, "Seems Iâm the only bad one here."
Li Yifei handed Suzuki Kawako a grilled meat skewer, saying with a smile, "Kawako, youâre really a good girl. I appreciate you, and we can always remain friends."
Suzuki Kawako laughed as she took the meat skewer, replying, "Alright, then you eat one too."
Regarding meat skewers, Li Yifei preferred those that were sizzling with fat, biting into them and having the oil run down his lipsâthat was how to enjoy eating. But the meat skewers Suzuki Kawako prepared had at most two small pieces of meat, interspersed with green peppers and mushrooms, which although nutritionally balanced, lacked that satisfying taste.
Aoki Reiko complained, "You two are ignoring me."
Li Yifei laughed and gave Aoki Reiko another skewer, saying, "Of course weâll take care of you. Hereâs a skewer for you."
With a beaming smile, Aoki Reiko accepted it. After spending the past two days with Li Yifei, she truly came to regard him as a friend. The typical wariness she had towards people had completely vanished, something that even she found very odd. But it seemed to be a wonderful thing, and she did not want to live a life that even scared her. Being able to return to normal made her happier than anything, so she was in high spirits at the moment.
After eating two skewers, Aoki Reiko couldnât eat any more meat, so she picked through the veggies and mushrooms in the middle and left the meat behind. She loved eating vegetables, and within a short time, she had downed six or seven skewers, each left with two pieces of meat.
"Hey, arenât you being a bit wasteful? Youâre not eating the meat," Li Yifei chuckled as he teased her.
With a smile, Aoki Reiko replied, "I only like vegetables. I really canât eat any more meat."
Suzuki Kawako let out a light laugh and said, "Mr. Mu Fei, Reiko loves vegetables, and you love meat. You two complement each other perfectly. Why donât you eat all this meat?"
Aoki Reiko hurriedly protested, "How can that be okay? Iâve already nibbled on some."
Li Yifei smiled and said, "Itâs fine, I donât mind." He then took the remaining meat skewers from Aoki Reiko and quickly cleaned off the meat.
Aoki Reikoâs eyes widened in surprise. For a girl, giving a man the food she had already touched, even leftovers, was something unimaginable since her lips would have come in contact with it.
"Mr. Mu Fei, you..." Aoki Reikoâs face flushed, too embarrassed to know what to say.
Li Yifei understood this point, but tonight he had to get rid of that "thing," which would require swimming quite a distance out to sea. That would definitely consume a lot of energy, so he had to eat his fill, and although there seemed to be a lot of meat skewers prepared by Suzuki Kawako, there wasnât actually much high-energy meat available. Hence, Li Yifei didnât care about such details at that moment.
Suzuki Kawako was also surprised by Li Yifeiâs actions, but she burst into laughter and teased, "Mr. Mu Fei, you are eating Reikoâs saliva. Doesnât that mean youâve kissed Reiko? Reiko still has her first kiss saved up. Now you have to take responsibility for her."
Li Yifei chuckled, "Reiko, youâre not that traditional, are you?"
With embarrassment, Aoki Reiko said, "Mr. Mu Fei, you really are too crude."
Li Yifei laughed softly and apologized, "Sorry, but I am really quite hungry tonight. Seeing all that meat and not eating it would have made me drool."
Suzuki Kawako laughed and said, "Thatâs fine, weâll give all the meat to you today. Iâll give you the meat from my skewers too." Having had a boyfriend before and having gone to bed with him, she wasnât so mindful of such things. Moreover, she did really like Li Yifei, and doing this felt sweet to her.
Taking the meat-only skewer that Suzuki Kawako passed over, Li Yifei ate with gusto. Having a partner meant Aoki Reiko wasnât as embarrassed. Most importantly, Li Yifei didnât look a bit sleazy while eating the meat, which made her feel more at ease.
After eating another skewer, Aoki Reiko hesitated a moment but finally handed the rest over to Li Yifei, her face flushed as she said, "Here, you can have it."
Li Yifei thanked her and took it, eating without any hesitation.
Watching Li Yifei, Aoki Reiko suddenly felt a burst of sweetness in her heart. For a girl who had never had a boyfriend, sometimes it was just such a moment that touched her heartstrings. Now, she felt like the distance between her and Li Yifei had closed, with a mysterious emotion stirring within her.
Li Yifei didnât expect such a small gesture to make Aoki Reiko fall for him; otherwise, he really couldnât have taken the leftover meat from her.
Everyone was enjoying their meal when suddenly two jeeps sped over, and several soldiers, guns in hands, quickly jumped out and surrounded Li Yifei and the others.
These people appeared so abruptly and with such targeted action that Li Yifei immediately understood that they were in trouble, and this was not going to be an easy situation to resolve.
