"We are currently investigating the truth about this matter. I hope you can understand, counselor." Facing this senior police official whose police rank far exceeded hers, Miwako Sato had no intention of compromising.
Everything is done in accordance with the rules and regulations, and it is reasonable and no one can find fault.
If Uno Tadayoshi wanted to use his power to make money, then Sato Miwako felt that he might have come to the wrong place. Maybe other places will agree, but it won't work here in the third series.
"I have already said that someone is framing her, and someone is framing me." Seeing that Miwako Sato refused to accept this trick, Uno Tadayoshi's face suddenly darkened. He put one hand behind his back and pointed at the ground with the other and said sternly: "There is no way Yoshiko has any financial transactions with Kenzo Masayama, and neither can I!
"I don't know what you found, but I'm sure it's definitely a forgery."
"I understand, Counselor Uno."
Miwako Sato nodded in agreement: "We all believe you, so this is just a routine investigation."
"..."
Facing the unreliable Sato Miwako, Uno Tadayoshi was so angry that his fingers were trembling, but in the end he restrained his temper that wanted to explode.
Tolerance, unwillingness, anger and restraint.
Several emotions flashed alternately in the man's eyes, and his ulterior gaze fell on Sato Miwako, as if he didn't know what to say for a while, and he stopped talking.
"Go and tell Megure Thirteen that I will be waiting for him here in the third department. I want to see what results you can find in the end." After taking a deep breath slowly, Uno Tadayoshi did not hide his dissatisfaction and raised his head. He walked towards the lounge.
Miwako Sato, who bowed slightly and watched the senior official leave, also breathed a sigh of relief.
If Uno Tadayoshi really wanted to toughen up, she really had no right to end it. After all, he was a senior official in the Criminal Division, with a higher police rank than the chief of the 1st Investigation Section. Fortunately, he did not do so.
"Sato, I-huh? What's wrong with you? Why do you look like this?"
Not long after, when Shiratori Rensaburo happily returned to the three series with the information, what he saw was Sato Miwako's relieved expression, and he was suddenly confused.
"The Megure Police Department brought the wife of Counselor Uno back, and the counselor is here too."
After seeing her friend return, Miwako Sato leaned on her desk with her elbows bent. She put one hand on her hips and tilted her head. She briefly explained the future context: "It seems that what he has done so far is worthy of the police badge. At least Not using force to overwhelm others——
"Forget it, let's not talk about him for now. What about you, have you discovered anything?"
Hearing this, Shiratori's face immediately nodded seriously and said, "That's about it. Didn't Uehara ask me to use my family's connections to investigate Kenzo Masayama before, so I discovered something very interesting."
"Interesting thing?"
"Well, look at this."
Shiratori handed the document bag in his hand to his friend, coughed a few times in the latter's doubtful eyes and said: "Here are some information that I can find. According to the contacts in my family, Kenzo Masayama He did have an encounter with Counselor Uno during his lifetime.
"But what's interesting is that I saw another name among the people who had contact with Masuyama Kenzo..."
Following Shiratori Rensaburo's words, Miwako Sato opened the document bag and took out the documents. The first thing that caught her eye was a group photo of a private banquet list, including the first section chief Wada Saburo and Masayama Kenzo.
"Professor?"
Rubbing the edge of the photo, Sato Miwako frowned: "He also knows Matoyama Kenzo?"
"In fact, it's more than just acquaintance."
Shiratori Rensaburo looked around, leaned in and whispered: "According to the news in the circle, Section Chief Wada will be hired by Masato Kenzo's group after his retirement."
"……you sure?"
"I'm sure." Shiratori nodded extremely solemnly: "Not many people in the small circle of the consortium know about this matter. My dad only found out about it when he was chatting with someone at a dinner party. Rumor has it that it was Kenzo Masama. We’ve even prepared the contract and will hand it over as soon as the section chief retires.”
"..."
Shiratori has brought up his father as a guarantee. The credibility of this news is undoubtedly very high. Miwako Sato fell into deep thought: "How did they know each other? I am referring to Section Chief Wada and Kenzo Masatoyama."
"A lot of people in this circle know about it."
Shiratori Rensaburo unreservedly revealed the information he had gathered from his contacts: "In fact, Counselor Uno treats his subordinates very well. He has privately helped many old subordinates introduce some retirement jobs with extremely generous benefits. , Section Chief Wada, as a subordinate who has worked with him for many years, is naturally no exception.
"Judging from the current situation, Counselor Uno has introduced several entrepreneurs with considerable financial resources to Section Chief Wada, including Kenzo Masuyama.
"It was also at this time that Section Chief Wada got in touch with Kenzo Masuyama. Because the contract offered by Kenzo Masuyama was the most lucrative among these entrepreneurs, the section chief chose him in the end."
Shiratori Rensaburo spoke very slowly, as if he was afraid that his friends would not be able to hear him clearly if he spoke too fast. Miwako Sato frowned and subconsciously raised her eyes in the direction of the lounge. Uno Tadayoshi's previously restrained anger appeared in front of her again.
Suddenly, a possibility came to her mind.
"Shiratiao, I'm going out for a while, you watch here."
"Okay, no problem, I have to work overtime tonight anyway."
Watching her former crush put on her suit jacket and hurried out of the office area, Shiratiao glanced at the files she placed on the desktop, shook her head, and a wry smile appeared on her lips.
Perhaps Sato herself didn't realize it, but some of her actions were becoming more and more similar to Katsuki Uehara's, especially the posture of leaning on the back of a desk chair while still speaking with one hand on her hips.
Miwako had never done this move before, but Katsumi Uehara often did it like this.
"Forget it, Chiba is right, it's good for them to be together." Shiratori Rensaburo returned to his work station with some melancholy, picked up the cup and took a glass of water and started to deal with the work accumulated on the eucalyptus head.
Nominally, he is the leader of the three lines in the absence of Megure Thirteen and Uehara Katsumi.
……………………………………………………
"Uehara, where are you now?"
"Me? Oh, I'm on my way to Rice Krispies Center now. After asking Reina Mizuno about Oikawa Kunihiko, I feel that Miyano Shiho's injury may be a little strange. Now I suspect that the two of them took the same kind of medicine. What’s wrong with the medicine?”
"Shiratori found out something about the section chief. I think the direction of our investigation may be a little biased."
"Off the way? What should I say?"
At the intersection in Mika Town, Katsuki Uehara, who was waiting for the red light to pass, pressed the speakerphone and threw the phone into the hand of Conan in the passenger seat. The latter rolled his eyes at him, but he still acted like a human being. Telephone.
"The connection between the section chief and Kenzo Masayama may be deeper than we thought..."
After explaining what Shiratori had found out, Miwako Sato finally came up with a conjecture: "Uehara, I'm wondering if there is a possibility that the high-level insider in the Metropolitan Police Department has not existed for a long time. But it was bought recently.
"The reason why the other party wants to bribe is also easy to understand. I just went to check and compare. The time when Masayama Kenzo came into contact with the section chief was after Director Odagiri completed the internal purge of the Metropolitan Police Department.
"In other words, it is very likely that the winery had to choose to bribe a new informant because the insider was removed, and use him to start developing new downlines."
"..."
"..."
Katsuki Uehara was startled when he heard this, and then turned his head, just in time to meet Conan's gaze as he raised his eyes. He didn't even step on the accelerator when the green light came on.
"Sato, see you at Mihua Central Hospital. Let's chat over dinner."
After the vehicles honked their horns one after another, Katsuki Uehara stepped on the accelerator and said, "Oh, by the way, you are out, and the Megure Police Department is not here either. Who is in the third department now?"
"White Bird, I let him stay."
Miwako Sato, who also drove out of the investigation site, buckled her seat belt, started the car and said, "I will be at the hospital in about twenty minutes."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, the two cars drove directly to the same destination.
When it was dinner time, in the office area of the Third Department of the Metropolitan Police, Shiratori Rensaburo, who had been busy for a long time, was alone eating sushi for delivery. After solving his personal stomach problem three times, five times, five times and two times, he returned to his busy work.
When he looked up again, the hands of the clock on the wall were already close to zero.
"Is it already so late~"
Bai Niao stood up and stretched his waist, looked at the time, smiled and shook his head. When he was about to pick up the cup to drink water, he found that the cup was empty, and then turned around and left the work station.
"Hey, White Bird, haven't you gone back yet?"
"The work has just been done. You can go first while I take a sip of water."
"Good job……"
After saying goodbye to the other police officers working overtime in the third department, there were only two or three kittens still working overtime in the huge office area. The next second, Shiratiao, who was lamenting the difficulty of life as a police officer, heard the crisp beating sound of electronic music——
Um?
Shiratori Rensaburo lowered his head and took a sip of the warm water he had just poured. In his confusion, he saw that the clock on the wall had already reached midnight——
Under his unbelievable eyes, the corner of the third department office area exploded with a bang!
"Everyone! Let's go! Let's go!!!"
Shiratiao, who was shocked, turned his head and shouted angrily, with veins popping out on both sides of his forehead: "Get out of here quickly!!! Quickly!!!"
Before he finished speaking, the three-series wall at midnight was blasted through by several bombs that were not too powerful! ! !
boom!
boom! !
Bang bang bang! ! !
The huge Metropolitan Police Department fell into unspeakable turmoil in an instant! ! !
