Tokyo Police

v9 Chapter 20: Democratic Party Headquarters

The murderer is likely to be a woman, which means that Jingzi's suspicion is even heavier. Although judging from the wounds of the victim, the murderer held the knife with his left hand when he committed the murder. But it's just a simple stabbing action. Even if the dominant hand is right-handed, with a little practice, you can still stab the victim's body with a knife in your left hand.

However, if the murderer is really Jingzi, then what is Jingzi's motive? What kind of purpose did she have to kill Hamada Taichi? This is what Lin Xiuyi wants to figure out next.

But things are not so simple. Just last night, Minister of Justice Ando Nobuko had a secret talk with him. In this conversation, Nobuko Ando revealed when Keiko and Hamada would meet because Hamada Daichi had something Keiko needed. Judging by the level of concern that Minister Ando has for this matter, these things are obviously what she desperately wants. So, in this way, could these things have caused the death of Hamada?

The police did not find the important things that Minister Ando said in the place where Hamada was killed. Therefore, there is another possibility, that is, the murderer killed Hamada Dadi for these things. Reminiscent of the strange behavior of Senator Hamada's sudden resignation. Lin Xiuyi had to suspect that these things might have something to do with politics.

"Police, the forensic department has found the place where the murder weapon was sold. The willow ninja buns were bought at a knife shop near the Tsukiji fish market. More than 50 buns of the same style have been sold. But only a few of them have been sold. The knife can be traced to the exact bottom route. For the rest, the store did not leave the buyer's information!"

Miki, who went to get the materials from the forensics class, returned to the office as Lin Xiuyi reported. And Urashima reported to Lin Xiuyihui:

"The police department, the surveillance video obtained from the cameras near the Imperial Palace Square has been collected by Aizawa-senpai and Hanagata-senpai, and they are carefully looking for other suspects that may exist in the video. However, the identification of the footprints on the scene is really a little different. too optimistic..."

After hearing the bad news reported by Miki and Urashima, Lin Xiuyi thought it was acceptable. After all, this kind of evidence like finding a needle in a haystack has a lot of luck in it. If it really goes well, then it should be suspected that the murderer is setting up suspicions!

"Urashima-kun, go prepare a car, we'll go out in ten minutes!"

"Hey, I'll make arrangements now!"

Urashima got Lin Xiuyi's order and left the office immediately. Miki, on the other hand, looked at Lin Xiuyi curiously, wondering where the police department was going to take everyone.

"The Police Department? Shouldn't we seek a breakthrough in the confession of Miss Jing Zi now? Could it be that you still have trouble with Miss Jing Zi?"

Miki reminded Lin Xiuyi in a low voice. From the current point of view, Jingzi is still the only suspect in this case, so everyone's main job is to find evidence that Jingzi killed Hamada. If it is possible to avoid the investigation of Jingzi, it is inevitable that the senior officials of the criminal department will not be unhappy. If that is the case, the police department will probably be thrown into the cold palace again.

"I understand Miki, but last night, someone who I can't reveal my identity personally told me. Keiko went to the Imperial Palace Plaza to retrieve something from Hamada. But when the police arrived at the scene At the time, we didn't find anything of value. From this point of view, if Jingzi killed for these things, then we must find these things to prove Jingzi's motive. But there is also a possibility, that Before Keiko arrived at the scene, someone had already taken this important thing by killing Hamada Dadi. If this is the case, then this mysterious person who had arrived before Keiko was probably the one we were going to find another one suspects."

Lin Xiuyi used the existing objective conditions to explain Miki. I heard Lin Xiuyi mention something important that Hamada is likely to carry with him. Michito didn't doubt the truth of what Lin Xiuyi said, because she believed that the police department was not the kind of guy who turned black and white in order to help friends.

"So your decision of the police department is..."

"Go to the headquarters of the Democratic Constitutional Party. I remember that Hamada Dadi suddenly announced his resignation from all his positions before he was killed. Only the post of Congressman remains! I am a little curious, why did he do this?"

...

Just when Lin Xiuyi and Miki discussed about it, Lin Xiuyi also received a call from Urashima. The Urashima side has already prepared a vehicle for travel. As a result, Lin Xiuyi and Miki also left the office. Go to the third basement to meet Urashima. Immediately afterwards, the Special Search Department drove away from Sakurada Gate and went straight to the Democratic Constitutional Party headquarters building in Marunouchi.

The distance from Sakurada Gate to Marunouchi is not too far. It takes a few minutes to get there by car. However, it was only when Lin Xiu and his group arrived at the headquarters of the Democratic Constitutional Party that he realized that it was completely different from what he had expected.

"Sorry, we can't open the office of Senator Hamada to you! Please forgive me for this."

"why?"

Lin Xiuyi felt a little strange and asked back.

"Mr. Hamada is a member of Congress, and we cannot show you his office for information security reasons."

The staff of the Democratic Constitutional Party headquarters responsible for the reception of the special search department shied away from Lin Xiuyi. Lin Xiuyi is still prepared for this kind of thing~lightnovelpub.net~ Since Hamada Dadi's office and documents are not open to the police. Lin Xiuyi felt that it would be better to ask who has worked with Senator Hamada. Maybe these people know some inside information about Senator Hamada.

"I don't know it's that gentleman who is the policy secretary for Senator Hamada. The policy secretary is arranged by the state. I don't think we need the approval of the Democratic Constitutional Party to go to him, right?"

Lin Xiuyi retorted to the other party unceremoniously.

"Mr. Police, if you're looking for a policy secretary, I'm afraid you'll have to go to the Congressman's Hall in Nagata Town."

The staff of the Democratic Constitutional Party headquarters also unceremoniously issued an expulsion order to Lin Xiu.

Just when Lin Xiuyi and the staff at the Democratic Party headquarters in charge of receiving him were arguing. Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the reception room.

"excuse me, you are……"

"Ah... You are Officer Lin Xiuyi, right? I am a staff member next to Mr. Shiroyama. At the invitation of Mr. Shiroyama, I would like to invite you and your colleagues to his office, is that okay?"
