Tokyo Police

v17 Chapter 53: condition

"It can't go on like this, more and more people are dying! But... we haven't made any progress at all!"

In Lin Xiuyi's office, Section Chief Matsuda said these words to Lin Xiuyi in front of Lin Xiuyi's heart. And Lin Xiuyi held the report that Miki and Urashima handed over to him, frowning, and couldn't help but feel a little hard to choose.

"Listen to me, immediately order the whole city to search for the whereabouts of Akio Kuroda, otherwise we can only sit and wait, what are we waiting for..."

Seeing that Lin Xiuyi was still indifferent, Section Chief Matsuda couldn't help but feel a little anxious and reminded him. Being in charge of such a big case, once it fails, it means that the Metropolitan Police Department will no longer have a place for Lin Xiuyi. Now, the situation can no longer allow Lin Xiu to continue to delay again and again.

"Senior, do you know what this report in my hand means? It means that Masashi Hojo, who was once detained in the Tokyo Detention Center, was probably poisoned to death. In just two years Over time, his physical condition has suddenly deteriorated extremely, and the death record does not mention his illness. And a series of recent events cannot avoid this deceased former congressman, you know this What does it mean? Akio Kuroda... Intentionally leading us to investigate the matter of Masashi Hojo, whether it is the case that happened in Ginza twenty years ago, or the death of Masashi Hojo a few years ago, everything is Full of doubts. Then...the truth behind it...what is it?"

"So...what are you going to do now?"

After being silent for a long time, Section Chief Matsuda could not help but ask Lin Xiuyi helplessly:

"Of course, we will continue to investigate, but...not to investigate the whereabouts of Kuroda Akio, but to investigate the death of Hojo Masashi, and the truth of the case at the Ginza Imperial Hotel."

...

After Lin Xiuyi said this, he suddenly stood up and said to Miki and Urashima who were sitting beside him:

"I remember... During the trial of the Ginza Imperial Hotel case, the mother of the club to which the dead waitress belonged, Sang, testified in court, right!"

"Eh? Police watch, but... the other party has moved to the United States!"

"It doesn't matter, I think... my friend Sean will definitely have a solution for this kind of thing!"

...

As soon as Lin Xiu thought of this, he took out his mobile phone and sent some basic information about the mother Sang to his friend. Immediately afterwards, he stood up again and said to Section Chief Matsuda and his subordinates:

"Maybe... After we investigate the matter about Masashi Hojo, things may turn around. So next, I want to go to the Tokyo Detention Center to ask those detained who know Masashi Hojo. Prisoners. Let's see if they have any impression of Hojo's health back then..."

"You're still going! So... what about us? What are we going to do next?"

When Miki heard that Lin Xiuyi still wanted to investigate the matter of Qi Shi Hojo regardless of her own situation, she couldn't help but feel a little worried about him.

"You? If possible, I hope you can find more clues about the death of Qi Shi Hojo. In addition... I also want to ask you to investigate the social relationship of Qi Shi Hojo to see if anyone is the object of suspicion. As for the seniors, if possible, can you rely on your past friendship to inquire with Takayama Jianshi of the Sumiyoshi Society to see if there was anything unusual before Fukuda Haruyuki was killed!"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's request, Section Chief Matsuda nodded in agreement without hesitation! Lin Xiuyi picked up his jacket and left his office at the Shinjuku Central Police Station.

...

When Lin Xiuyi returned to the Tokyo Detention Center again and again, as soon as he explained his purpose, the detention center immediately agreed to Lin Xiuyi's request. Soon, a conflict occurred on the day of the escape to attract the criminal officer in the prison to notice that one of the two criminals was brought to Lin Xiuyi.

"For the first time, I am the investigator in charge of investigating the prison escape this time - Lin Xiuyi. If possible, I would like to ask you a few questions, what do you think?"

"Ah... I'm sorry! If you want to ask Mr. Sakurai's whereabouts, I think... I can't meet your request! Because... I don't even know where they are now!"

"Sorry, you may have misunderstood what I meant. I came here today to inquire about Mr. Masashi Hojo's life. For example... Regarding the case that happened at the Ginza Imperial Hotel twenty years ago, Mr. Hojo Have you ever disclosed anything about this before your death?"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's question, the prisoner sitting opposite him couldn't help but look at him with some doubts. At this moment, Lin Xiuyi noticed that the other party hesitated several times, and it seemed that he still had difficulty making up his mind.

"I think...you should be able to answer my question! After all...the reason why you would do this kind of thing is to make people pay attention to the matter of Masashi Hojo!"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's straightforward statement, the suspect was extremely surprised at first, and then slowly recovered after a long time.

"Mr. Police, may I ask... are you really willing to investigate Mr. Hojo's matter?"

"I said that I am the investigator of this case, so... as long as it is related to the case, I will investigate it one by one!"

"If that's the case, then I'll tell you, Mr. Hojo has never hurt anyone, so...he is definitely not a murderer!"

"Sorry~lightnovelpub.net~ Your statement doesn't help me much. And...I've heard similar statements from Sakurai Goro's statement. So...if there is no evidence, The testimony of a few of you alone cannot prove anything!"

"Mr. Police, do you want evidence?"

"Yes, I must obtain sufficient evidence to prove the innocence of Beijo Qi Shi, in order to overturn the judgment of that year!"

Lin Xiuyi met the other party's gaze and answered unabashedly.

"Then please prove your sincerity first, otherwise, how could we put such an important thing in the hands of an untrustworthy stranger!"

"So...what do you want me to do? How can I earn your trust?"

"Mr. Police, please find out the murderer of Mr. Hojo first. When you find that guy, the evidence... will naturally be delivered to you!"

After the suspect finished speaking, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Immediately afterwards, the suspect raised his hands, signaling that he wanted to leave here.
