Chapter 58- The time is ending.

The first two days heading Yomitan govnt were easy for Hoshiyomi. Few things to do, and only one free trade agreement to sign;

-Is unbelievable how Mr. Yomi can handle this task, it's so boring...

An employee from Yomitan's geography and statistics department arrived in the room;

-Oh, good morning, I'm Oniguri and I would like to speak with Mr. Yomi.
-Good morning, Oniguri. Mr. Yomi's is travelling and I took his duty temporarily. My name is Hoshiyomi and you may dealt with me.
-Ah Mr. Hoshiyomi. I have come to deliver our annual reports on the demographic, geographic and economic situation of our city and country. May I leave this reports with you?
-Sure Oniguri, you can leave it at my table.
-Thank you Mr. Yomi, have a nice day, I'm going out.
-No problem.

Hoshiyomi takes the reports and analyzes the graphs that were plotted;

-Oh my lord, Yomi has been doing a great job!

According to the report, Yomitan population has reached 4 million people, with an average addition of 2740 new residents per day, injecting in the economy more than 2 million dollars, daily. In the country, the growth was much smaller, highlighting only Miyang, which now has a population of 700 thousand, an increase of only 20 thousand people in a year. The gross domestic product of the city stood at U$130bn, a per capita of U$32,500, an expressive increase of 14% past to the previous year.
The lack of strict fiscal control, implemented to reduce social inequality in the city, seems to be working. It allows to conclude that these numbers are not totally reliable because they comprise only the formalized part of the economy, especially the big and medium companies. Informal establishments and small businesses exist in profusion in Yomitan (who earned the nickname of small business mecca), and are legally permitted. Since Yomi doesn't require everyone to do their accounting because he simply don't care about, these numbers may actually be even better.
Tsukiyomi enters the room, and goes to Hoshiyomi, observing the graphics:

-Oh my honey, what's this?
-Good news for Yomi, the city now has 4 million people and our economy has grown well over the past year.
-How good! Yomi is doing a really good job.

Tsukiyomi massages Hoshiyomi's shoulders;

-Mr. Yomi's tasks looks so monotonous... and you're too hard, my love ...
-Yes, it's pretty annoying... almost nothing happens.
-I think you should rest later, my lord...
-With you I will go for sure…

Koenma enters the room;

-Excuse me, Hoshiyomi.
-Oh, Mr. Koenma, good evening!
-Good evening. Do you know when Yomi will came back exactly?
-Yes, Koenma, tomorrow, possibly late afternoon. There's something urgent?
-No, I'm just curious to know how he will return from this trip, it seems to me that Kurama is acting in an unusual way, his energy changed a lot yesterday.
-Oh really? It worsened?
-No, quite the contrary, I have seen something like that when he and Botan were together.
-Botan went too, maybe this is the reason it happened.
-True, that may just be my mistake. Well, are you going to sleep next? I'm already going, I've spent a good part of the day writing reports to Mr Enma Daioh, whom I'm going to visit tomorrow, and I'll tell you, it's a pain ...
-Yeah, we're going soon. I just wonder how silly Mr. Enma is now. Did you think he has been forgotten Kurama's judgement? I think it would be tomorrow...
-It is true! Did they suceed?
-I didn't saw any reaction from Mr. Enma about it, very likely he wouldn't even remember, he has never tested anyone for such a long time.
-I hope they pass...
-I'm suspicious about Yomi, too. Enma Daioh was not emphatic about approving him this time, possibly he lied to test him again in secret.
-I think that's not a problem for Mr. Yomi, he didn't changed after knowing the result.
-Yes, Yomi is just the same, maybe even better. Well, I'm going to bed soon. Good night to you!
- Good night to you too!

Koenma goes to his bedroom quickly. He takes off his pacifier and undresses himself, taking a quick shower before going back to bed to sleep;

-What did my father required from Kurama? And why would he go back on Yomi's case, if his decision was apparently an ultimatum? I think all this is strange and disconnected, I think I'll have to fight him again, I don't want all my work to be wasted, but I don't fucking want to fight him... -Koenma thinks.
