Conan: Another Famous Detective

Hearing the knock on the door, Gao Shipingcang immediately sat up from the bed a little irritably, and said impatiently: "I need to rest now! If you have anything else, wait until I wake up!"

The person who knocked on the door at this time could basically only be his secretary. There had indeed been occasions when he was getting ready to take a break when something came to his door.

Sometimes he would deal with it immediately if he was in a good mood, but if he expressed that he needed to rest, he would postpone the matter and the secretary would not disturb him again.

After all, he is a member of the House of Representatives. Whether the secretary has something to do or someone else contacts the secretary to find him, he will always give himself some face.

However, this time the secretary did not accept the order and leave as usual. Instead, he said in a cautious tone: "Congressman, the secretary of a very important person called and conveyed his wish to speak to you."

"Secretary of an important person?" Takaichi Pingkang frowned: "Which important person is it?"

"The other party claims to be Mr. Junichi Tanida, the chairman of the Cabinet Committee on Public Security, requesting to speak to you."

"What? Junichi Tanita? Are you sure!?"

"Yes." The secretary replied.

"Bring your phone in and give it to me!" Gaoshi's attitude towards closing his position suddenly changed 180 degrees.

As a member of the House of Representatives, it is naturally impossible for him not to know who Junichi Tanida is.

Especially at this time, this name suddenly appeared, which made Gao Shiping's heart tighten.

He and Junichi Tanita usually don't have much contact. If he contacts me at this time, I'm afraid...

Shaking his head slightly to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, he came to sit on the sofa in the lounge and took the cell phone handed to him by the secretary who came in.

In order to prevent himself from being disturbed while resting, he would give his mobile phone to his secretary for safekeeping during his nap.

This is not because he is crazy and lacks a sense of confidentiality.

This secretary has been with him for many years and has helped him do a lot of shameful things. He and he have a mutually beneficial relationship. The phone itself has been encrypted, so it is not that easy to obtain the information inside.

That's why he handed the phone to the other party with confidence.

After taking the phone, he glanced at the screen and found that the phone was still in call mode.

Gao Shipingcang took a deep breath and put the phone to his ear: "I am Gao Shipingcang."

"Hello, Councilor Gao, I am Narita, the secretary of Chairman Tanita. Is it convenient for you now? Chairman Tanita would like to have a phone call with you."

"I have time now and can talk to Mr. Tanita at any time." Takaichi Pingcang replied in a flattered tone.

"Okay, please wait a moment." After Narita finished speaking, the other end of the phone went silent for the time being.

Takaichi Pingcang guessed that the other party should inform Junichi Tanita.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, a steady and determined male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Councillor Gao, this is Gu Tian, ​​please forgive me for interrupting."

"You're so polite, Mr. Tanita!" Takaichi Pingcang quickly replied: "It's my honor to be able to talk to you. How can I be intrusive?"

"As long as Councilor Gao doesn't mind," Junichi Tanita replied, without any emotion in his tone.

In this way, the high market closing position, which has been paying attention, becomes more and more uncertain.

He laughed a little awkwardly, and Takaichi Pingcang asked: "Excuse me, Sir Tanita, do you have any business with me? If there is anything I can do, I will be very happy to help."

"It's nothing." Junichi Tanita said calmly: "I heard that one of your friends was arrested by the police for a case. For this reason, Councilor Gao, you called Hakuba directly, right?"

Takaichi Hirakura's heart suddenly sank. Sure enough, it was because of [Endo]'s incident!

After thinking quickly in his mind, Takaichi Pingcang replied: "That is indeed the case, because I have been old friends with Mr. Endo who was arrested for many years. I couldn't believe it when I heard that he was arrested. of."

"You also know that although I am far inferior to Mr. Gu Tian, ​​in my position, I will inevitably get into trouble. I am also afraid that someone with ulterior motives will frame me, so I called Director Baima directly to inquire about the situation."

"If it's a misunderstanding, then of course it's best. If my old friend does commit a crime, I will never condone it and respect the police's decision!"

"Previously, I only cared about you and caused chaos. If there is any overstep, please don't mind, Mr. Gutian."

High market position closing has already expressed several meanings in these few sentences.

First, admit that you did make the call, and the other party has already come to investigate, so denying it is meaningless;

Second, explain the reason for calling the police chief's office directly - an old friend has been arrested, care is confusing, and it is suspected that someone with ulterior motives is deliberately targeting him.

This reason is indeed reasonable, because as long as the police conduct a little investigation, they will know that [Endo] has a considerable interest relationship with him.

If his political opponents want to target him, they have every motive to attack [Endo].

Third, he expressed his apology and said that he had absolutely no intention of intervening in the police's handling of the case and respected the police's decision.

Yes, it's "respect", not "support"

The hidden meaning is that if all police procedures are in compliance and the evidence is conclusive, he will not say anything, but if there is anything wrong with the police's handling, he will not turn a blind eye.

Just because I respect your decision doesn't mean I won't do anything.

The reason why Gao Shi plays this word game here is because he has no choice but to do so.

He knew that such a level of word play would be impossible to hide from Junichi Tanita, but he still had to reveal this attitude.

He did not forget that he still had the task of bailing Endo out, and this task was entrusted by the [funder] behind him, and he could not just ignore it.

"That's it." Junichi Tanita, who was opposite, replied with a sudden tone: "If something happens to an old friend, it's understandable that you will be confused if you care."

After a pause, Gu Tian changed the topic: "However, it is indeed inappropriate to call Baima directly. The police handle cases, follow procedures, and pay attention to evidence."

"If your friend really has a clear conscience, the police will naturally not wrongly accuse a good person."

"But if you make this phone call, it will cause misunderstanding!"

Gao Shi felt a little shuddered in his heart and immediately expressed his attitude: "What Mr. Gutian said is that I didn't think it through well. It's really a sin to bother you to call and ask about this matter in person!"

"It doesn't matter. Since it's just a misunderstanding, let's just talk it out." Junichi Tanita's tone softened slightly, and then said: "Member Gao, please rest assured that I will help pay attention to your friend's matter, and I will definitely handle the matter fairly. !”

Gao Shipingcang twitched the corner of his mouth slightly. The other party said he was helping to pay attention, but in fact he was saying: "I'm taking care of this matter. You'd better be more sensible and stop reaching out randomly, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences".

Gao Shi felt bitter in his heart when he closed his position, but he had to smile and said: "With your words, I feel relieved."

Afterwards, after a few more pleasantries, Junichi Tanida hung up the phone.

Gao Shi closed his position and put it on his mobile phone. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, with a complicated expression on his face.
