"Are you free?"

"Oh, here you are, Section Chief Matsuda!"

"Have you heard? There was an explosion in a Jiaofan in Arakawa District last night, and all the people in the department were sent there. I heard that the evidence from the scene search alone is full of trucks!"

"Is there such a thing?"

"Hey...Although I haven't been to the scene in person, but just thinking about the evidence in that car, I know that this case is definitely not easy to handle!"

"How many victims are there?"

"This... It is said that there was only one victim, the police officer who was on duty over there at the time. Eh? You are not interested in this case, are you! In this case, the evidence of that car alone is not your special investigation department. These people can handle it!"

"It's natural, but..."

Just when Lin Xiuyi wanted to inquire from Section Chief Matsuda about last night's bombing, the voice of Counselor Zhongyuan suddenly came from outside the door.

"Lin Xiuyi, come with me to the minister's office!"

"Hey, hey!"

Seeing the Counselor Zhongyuan who was standing in front of the door personally coming to him, Lin Xiu quickly apologized to Senior Matsuda, then picked up his jacket and walked outside.

"Well... Now I have an important task to give you. The specific situation will be explained to you by Minister Sato himself!"

Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when he saw the tone of the counselor Zhongyuan talking to him suddenly so polite. He followed behind the counselor in confusion, and while walking, he carefully put the suit jacket on his body.

...

"Dong Dong Dong!"

"Minister! Lin Xiuyi came with a sling. Excuse me... can we come in now?"

"Please come in!"

When Minister Sato's response came from inside the house, Lin Xiu stood outside the door and adjusted his suit a little, then pushed open the door and walked straight in.

"minister!"

Lin Xiuyi stood opposite Sato Masayoshi, first bowed his head and saluted, then stood there waiting for Sato Masayoshi's orders.

"Well! Sit over there and talk!"

"Eh?"

Seeing Masayoshi Sato reaching out and pointing at the sofa beside him, Lin Xiuyi couldn't believe his eyes!

"Please sit down, Xiuyi-kun! I just made a pot of tea. Since you are here, let's sit down and have a drink together!"

"Uh, no no no! I'll just stand here. Excuse me... what are your orders?"

...

Seeing Lin Xiuyi still standing respectfully in the same place, Minister Sato couldn't help but glance at Counselor Nakayuan who was standing by the side, and then Counselor Nakayuan coughed first, and then returned to his usual tone and asked Lin Xiuyi. :

"Lin Shuichi, I heard that you and Keiko Nagao, the policy evaluation reviewer of the Chief of Police's Office, have always maintained a good personal relationship in private, and... It is said that you were lovers before. Excuse me... Is this the case? ?"

"Wait a minute, why did you suddenly ask such a question?"

"You answer first, is there such a thing?"

"That, lovers or something, it's really nonsense. Judge Nagao and I only know each other because of our relationship with neighbors in the past. As for the good personal relationship you mentioned, I think it's just ordinary. Work relationship!"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's explanation, the criminal minister Sato and the counselor Nakayuan looked at each other again, and the room fell into silence again.

...

"Xiu Yi-kun, you should understand that you are the person who was trained in the first lesson of the search!"

"Hey, is this natural?"

"Then you should also know that as a member of the organization, you should always put the interests of the organization first!"

"This... Minister, what are you trying to say?"

"Inspector Nagao Keiko from the Chief's Office of the National Police Agency, you've been meeting her often lately!"

"Hey...but most of it is because of work! We are just acquaintances in private!"

In the face of the counselor's pressing question, Lin Xiu quickly explained to the other party.

"Then, you should know that the bureaucrats of the Metropolitan Police Department and the National Police Agency seem to be in harmony, but in some respects, they have irreconcilable differences!"

"For example... Regarding the jurisdiction of public security affairs in Tokyo, we will never accept other departments to point fingers at us, especially for officials of the National Police Agency and the Ministry of Justice, in the process of communication, they have to fight. Get twelve points of spirit."

"So, you mean to let me reduce my contact with Inspector Nagao?"

Lin Xiuyi felt as if he asked clearly.

"No! On the contrary, we need you to earnestly win the trust of the Nagao Inquisitor, and at the same time report all the other's movements at any time."

"Eh...what do you mean?"

"Of course it is for the benefit of the organization! Xiu Yijun, you should understand that you are a bureaucrat of the elite group! As an elite in the organization, you will naturally be cultivated by the organization, and correspondingly, you should also do your best to contribute to the organization. The only way to do it is to use your own strength~lightnovelpub.net~ Nagao Keiko is a bureaucrat sent by the Ministry of Justice to exchange talents, and is not ours. In addition, in the judicial system, our police system has always been under the control of the Ministry of Justice. status, so it is natural to be wary of these untrustworthy characters..."

After hearing the explanation from the counselor and the criminal minister, Lin Xiuyi finally understood what the other party meant.

"You mean, let me approach Inspector Nagao and monitor her every move?"

"Basically, that's what it means! However, I don't think the word surveillance is appropriate. We just want to be wary of people who can't be trusted by the organization. Although there is nothing shameful about the Metropolitan Police Department, But we don't want to be spied on all the time!"

After Counselor Nakaen made an explanation, Minister Sato continued to add:

"There is a famous saying that if a police car follows 500 miles, you can always find a reason to issue a ticket! I think you, as a law enforcement officer, should be able to understand the meaning of this sentence!"

"I understand, but... please forgive me for not being able to accept your order this time!"

"What did you say, are you going to refuse Minister Sato's request in person?"

Just when Counselor Zhongyuan heard Lin Xiuyi's answer and planned to reprimand him severely, Minister Sato suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Counselor Zhongyuan from speaking. He looked at Lin Xiuyi blankly, then slowly leaned back on the chair behind him, and said to Lin Xiuyi in a solemn tone:

"For this matter, I can also tell you very clearly that the person who wants to tell you to do this is not me. It's Matsumoto, the police chief of the Metropolitan Police Department! If you really plan to refuse , please be prepared to be abandoned by the organization!"
