I teach kendo in Tokyo

Back at Sakurada Gate, Kazuma and others borrowed a conference room to discuss the case - there were too many people in the office, and the discussion of the case might be overheard.

Kazuma is now envious of the Japanese drama "Aibo" that he watched in his last life. The special life department to which the protagonist belongs has a separate office - although there is no door in that office. Outside is the large office of the Life Safety Department. There is always a life safety department in the drama. The detective watched the two protagonists curiously.

Detective Shiratori: "For a series of silence cases, an investigation headquarters has been established in normal times. Now only the four of us are investigating. Mostly because the dead people themselves have stains."

Kazuma: "The woman who was shot first was a bartender and might have been involved in illegal immigration. The two Charlies who died next... don't laugh!"

"But, when I heard you say Charlie, I wanted to laugh." Asano covered his mouth, but still couldn't hold back his laughter.

Kazuma looked helplessly at Asano, who was still holding back his laughter, sighed and continued: "The last Maeda who died was Maeda who had been prosecuted for human smuggling and smuggling, but was found not guilty due to lack of evidence. Police Won't the agency set up a search headquarters for this group of people...?"

Shiratori nodded: "There are still people who think that these people died well. Even if reporters heard about it, they would only gloat. It is impossible to establish an investigation headquarters for such a case."

"It's really a reality." Kazuma was stunned, "If I were a public relations officer, maybe I could guide the reporters in the direction of their reporting."

"But you are no longer the public relations officer."

After Shiratori finished speaking, the Minister of Criminal Affairs Noriaki Hanagi suddenly opened the door of the conference room and rushed in.

Kazuma and others quickly stood up and saluted Hua Mu Noming, after all, he had a high police rank.

"I'm here to tell you that Maeda is going to deal with it by being drunk and falling into the water."

Kazuma frowned: "Why? His pockets have obviously been searched!"

"Maybe some people just want to keep their driver's license in their inner pocket because they are afraid of losing it, can't they?" Hanaki Noriaki said, taking a step forward and approaching Kazuma with his face in an arrogant manner.

Because Kazuma is tall among Japanese people, Noriaki Hanaki came closer, and their posture was very subtle, as if they were about to kiss.

Hanaki Noriaki poked Kazuma's chest with his hand: "Don't think that solving a murder case is a big deal. Every criminal policeman in the Investigation Section has solved a murder case. It is not uncommon for people to solve major cases with more than three victims. !”

Kazuma: "What about the 300 million yen robbery?"

"It's just a fluke! Looking at the files you investigated, you concluded that Muto was a criminal just because you saw that Muto had learned kendo, which was different from the summary of the case. Such nonsense reasoning will not be admitted in this class! You It’s just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse!”

Kazuma: "Don't worry about my process of solving the case, as long as I solve it, it will be fine."

"You can't always be so lucky! If you make a mistake, the reporter can make the Metropolitan Police peel off its skin! As the Minister of Criminal Affairs, I cannot approve your method of solving cases! This time, too, it is full of your Take it for granted!”

Just as Kazuma was about to retort, Noriaki Hanaki suddenly raised his voice: "Also! Don't be ungrateful! With your current identity, the more cases you solve, the more dangerous your position in the criminal department will be! Learn to read the air!"

Kazuma asked back: "What is my identity? I am a criminal police officer of the Metropolitan Police Department. My duty is to detect cases, punish criminals, and give justice to the victims!"

"No! The duty of the criminal police is to uphold the dignity of the law! We are responsible for the law, so your method of solving cases is not good. Fortunately, several prisoners cannot afford a lawyer with your method of solving cases, otherwise you will suffer! But the government-appointed lawyers are selected in a round-robin manner, and you will eventually get the chance to be a barrister."

Japan will assign public lawyers to criminal suspects, and these lawyers are rotated by lawyers registered with the Bar Association, so even if the criminal suspect has no money, he or she will be lucky enough to get a barrister.

"You should go to the police college to learn criminal investigation! Understand the detection methods that comply with legal procedures!" Noriaki Hanaki almost stabbed Kazuma's chest.

Kazuma: "I am currently learning the detection methods that comply with legal procedures with my senior Detective Shiratori. However, Senior Shiratori also recognized my statement!"

"A good team of detectives is not good at criminal investigation! In short, there is insufficient evidence to determine Maeda's death as homicide. From now on, we will continue to proceed with the work as if we fell into the water unless you can find evidence of homicide. For example, eyewitnesses What!"

After saying that, Hanaki Noriming snorted heavily, turned around and left the conference room.

Asano: "I hate this guy. Your goal in the Kiryu Police Department is to become the Police Director, right? Then be the Chief of Criminal Investigation first."

Kazuma: "Okay! I'll be the Minister of Criminal Affairs first. It's such a happy decision."

"Yeah!" Asano shouted.

Asakura glanced at Shiratori and asked, "Does Police Chief Kiryu have this kind of character?"

Shiratori: "After all, he was the one who said five years ago that he would become the police chief. It's normal for his self-confidence to explode. But now we have to solve the case.

"Witnesses, etc. According to the testimony of the masonry lady, he left the pine house very late. When he left the pine house, he was walking. Plus the time it took to walk to the river, it is unlikely that there are witnesses."

Kazuma: "Let's think about it from another angle, why does Horon Aikawa need Maeda? Those stowaways are non-existent black households for the Japanese government and are particularly suitable for experiments."

Asakura was shocked: "Experiments? Using people? Human experiments? Did it suddenly turn into such an exciting development?"

Kazuma ignored him and continued following his own train of thought: "Before, Horon Aikawa had been experimenting with the Japanese, so I noticed them. For example, the first time I played the Jade Dragon Flag, I encountered someone using them. A whole team of people trained in the method.”

Shiratori said: "I also got the title of Apple Sword Master by the way."

"That's not important! After that, Shimo Inaba was turned into something unknown and appeared in front of me."

Asano: "Shimo Inaba is the surname of the police chief. Are you talking about the third son?"

Kazuma nodded: "Yes. He attacked my teacher Masago Kamizumi, but was defeated. Later he was struck by lightning and died. The whole process had nothing to do with me."

"You don't need to emphasize this point when you tell me." Asano sighed, "But you emphasized this point so nervously, and I began to suspect that it had something to do with you."

Kazuma glanced at Asano and thought that this guy's intuition was really sharp. It was true that Inaba was killed by me with a Raikiri.

But Kagoshima definitely couldn't admit this: "It was an accident. The Kagoshima Prefectural Police's investigation report was very clear."

Shiratori said at this time: "Continue to express your thoughts and don't be interrupted."

Kazuma nodded and continued: "I originally thought that in the remaining three years of college, I could continue to catch clues about welfare technology, but they suddenly disappeared and looked like a normal person selling physical therapy equipment.

"Except for their junior year, when they launched hostile takeovers of several listed companies of the Nanjo Consortium because affiliated companies of the Nanjo Consortium robbed them of nearly half of the physical therapy device market, they basically didn't do anything."

Shiratori looked at Kazuma and said, "Do I remember the hostile takeover, or did you sense the clues first and then warn Nanjo?"

Kazuma nodded. The hostile takeover was very similar to a documentary literature "Barbarians at the Gate" that Kazuma had read in his life, so Kazuma reminded Nanjo Hiroshi through Honami.

So the Nanjo Consortium prepared a large amount of cash in advance and forcibly pushed up the stock price after the hostile takeover began, causing Aikawa Horon to suffer heavy losses.

After that incident, Nanjo Hiro invited Kazuma to have tea every once in a while, intentionally or unintentionally bringing Kazuma and Honami together.

But Honami is devoted to politics and has no such worldly desires.

Asano: "Wait a minute! Did the police department also intervene in the hostile takeover by the Nanjo Consortium? Is that also related to Aikawa Horon? Isn't this Aikawa Horon selling physical therapy devices?"

Kazuma shook his head: "He is the leader of the angle. In my first year of college, I encountered a series of suicide cases related to him. At that time, many rock musicians walked into the refrigerator and froze themselves to death."

Asakura's mouth was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear: "Isn't this too nonsense? Detective novels don't even dare to do this."

"Then why don't you catch him?" Asano shouted.

"Because there is insufficient evidence, there is no way to prove that he is related to these incidents." Shiratiao said solemnly, "We have been working hard to collect evidence over the years, but he has become more and more oily and powerful."

Kazuma sighed: "Yes, even members of Congress have joined the membership club of Welfare Technology. Entertainment stars and the like are not ranked in his club. In the past few years while I have been studying hard, he has gradually turned into a hand The guy who covers the sky.

"I have thought more than once, how about simply storming into his official residence, beheading him and making the documents in his office public. But among his connections are many people who are over 70 in kendo. I mean, people who are good at kendo. , I can’t beat it.”

Shiratori was speechless: "You didn't rush over because you couldn't beat them. I'm still wondering why you didn't just kill them like Tsuda-gumi did that time."

"One cannot be defeated, and the other is my apprentice Amao who persuaded me to use procedural justice to bring Aikawa Horataka to justice. In addition, Tamamo believes that to defeat Aikawa Horataka, one must have his own power .”

Shiratori: "So you came to be the police chief?"

"yes."

"Wait a minute!" Asano interrupted Kazuma and Shiratori loudly, "I can't keep up with the rhythm. Let me sum it up. So there is a angled leader named Aikawa Horon. He is a series of events. He is the culprit, but he is so powerful that he can only cover the sky with one hand. Even if the power of the Nanjo Consortium is used, he cannot be brought down?"

Kazuma: "The Nanjo Foundation does not have a deep relationship with politics. They originally hoped to deepen their ties, but I disrupted the marriage between Honami and the second son of a congressman."

Asano: "Ah, so it's your fault!"

"Also," Kazuma continued, "don't say that Aikawa Horon is the leader of the oblique angle. His legal team is very powerful. Just these words of yours can sue you for defamation. His personal lawyer Shibauda Hisashi is now also a famous barrister, and on his resume, all the cases are related to Aikawa Horon."

Asano: "So powerful?"

"It's so powerful, so I might be able to catch Aikawa Horon's little tail this time. I won't give up."

Asano: "Back to the case, the police department just told you that Horon Aikawa might have used smuggled criminals for experiments? Wouldn't it be better to start from the smuggling side and check the whereabouts of the smuggled people?"

Kazuma: "The last time Maeda was prosecuted, he was acquitted due to lack of evidence. I'm afraid it's not that easy to find the truth on this line."

Japanese law has the principle of "no prosecution for the same case". After Maeda was found not guilty, he could not be prosecuted for human smuggling.

Therefore, the prosecutor must be fully confident before prosecuting the case, but it is a pity that the opposite team of lawyers cheated.

Kazuma frowned: "Lawyers, is there any mention in the file who was Maeda's lawyer when he was sued?"

"I remember it was Lawyer Owada, and he was also a famous lawyer." Asakura replied.

When Kazuma heard the name Owada, he thought of the Owada executive and the famous scene in the Japanese drama "Naoki Hansawa".

He waved away the unwarranted associations arising from his name and said, "This Owada lawyer should be investigated to see if he has anything to do with Aikawa Horataka."

Asakura questioned: "Is this based on the fact that Horon Aikawa is related to this incident? But according to the masonry lady, Maeda had already lost his speech at that time, and it might be Noraka Aikawa."

Kazuma was about to respond when someone knocked on the door.

"Come in." White Bird said.

Then Detective Ida opened the door and came in and said: "The information desk downstairs said that there is a woman looking for Kiryu Kazuma."

Asano: "She's a woman. She's not here to deliver lunches to the police department, right? She's a caring person."

Kazuma scolded: "How is that possible! The girls I know well are all busy right now. Tamamo is busy at the prosecutor's office, Honami is probably giving a speech on the street to canvass for votes, and Haru and Chiyoko are in class. Unless the British monkeys suddenly come back, otherwise There’s no way a woman could come to me.”

Detective Juda: "But the information desk asked the woman to write down her name, so I'm pretty sure she's looking for you."

Japanese names have too many homophones, but if you write down the Chinese characters, you can be sure.

Kazuma stood up: "Okay, I'll go down and take a look. Come with Asano."

"Eh? Isn't this inconvenient?"

"Stop talking nonsense and follow me! I want you to see clearly that I am not someone who messes around with men and women."

Asano muttered "I know" and stood up, following Kazuma who had left.

**

Waiting at the front desk was a woman who had no impression of Kazuma, and she was still a golden retriever.

Judging by his face, he may be of European ethnicity.

She said to Kazuma in less than fluent Japanese: "Hello, Kiryu Police Department, I am Mary who works for an NGO. I have entered the country legally with a passport!"

Kazuma: "I didn't say you entered the country illegally."

"But your partner from the police department looks like he's a stowaway."

Kazuma turned around and patted Asano on the head: "Control your expression."

"I was wrong, I'm sorry!" Asano apologized loudly.

Kazuma: "So, Ms. Mary, what do you want from me?"

"Well, we have a donor named Vera, and we just received a package from her."

Kazuma frowned: "A package? When is the delivery time?"

"yesterday."

Asano: "The day he was killed!"

"Why did you think of giving this package to me?" Kazuma asked, "I'm not the criminal police officer who visited the NGO, right?"

Mary looked directly at Kazuma: "Because you are the hero of Osaka. I remember that in the report about the Osaka incident, it was said that you were at the scene and read the poem "Horatius on the Bridge". I I feel that you are a hero, even if you are a stowaway, you will uphold justice for her."

Kazuma nodded: "Yes, even if you are a stowaway, I will uphold justice."

Asano: "Additional to the police department, what you just said was a bit cool."
