After all, Kudo Yusaku had a lot of connections in the Metropolitan Police Department and helped a lot. After the gossip about him in the interrogation room spread, many colleagues called Sotakuya to plead for mercy.
After all, the Kudo family didn't do anything wrong. They just appeared in the wrong place at the wrong time wearing inappropriate clothes.
It was really a coincidence that all of this happened. If Hideharu Tsugawa had not chosen to settle down at the Rice Krispies Hotel, it would have been harmless for Yusaku Kudo to do so.
As for that vial of ether...
To put it bluntly, it's not a big deal. In Tokyo, a place where guns and cyanide are rampant, things like ether are quite unpopular.
After recording the embarrassment of the Kudo family, Sotakuya called back to Megure Jusan. During the phone call, he strongly condemned Kudo Shinichi's false news.
What kind of filial son does it take to think that your father is a member of an underground organization and say it is extremely dangerous?
Sotakuya didn't know whether Conan understood the value of his phone call, but he knew that Kudo Yusaku was in a hurry when he left the Metropolitan Police Department.
The well-mannered Kudo Yukiko gritted her teeth when she left.
So Takuya has no sympathy at all for Conan, who is about to encounter a disaster. He is obviously a UR-level informant, but the first time he drops information, it turns out to be false information.
If the informant book hadn't accumulated enough credibility with Sotakuya before, he would have doubted whether there was something wrong with the rating of the informant book this time.
The anecdotes of the Kudo family and his son can only be used as a rare diversion from work, and Hideharu Tsugawa who was interrogated by Kitaoka is the real main course of Sotakuya and the others.
After Zong Takuya was arrested, the Metropolitan Police Department immediately issued an announcement. From the issuance of the wanted order to the issuance of the investigation report, the prisoner was arrested in less than four days.
Such an efficient arrest operation is a victory worth writing home about for the Metropolitan Police Department, which is scolded by taxpayers all day long.
This has nothing to do with Sotakuya, it is the task of the propaganda department.
It's just that Sotakuya understands that if the Metropolitan Police Department wants to use Tsugawa Hideji's arrest to reverse the reputation of the Metropolitan Police Department, it is really thinking blindly.
At his desk, Sotakuya carefully read the confession handed over by Kitaoka Tsunekazu. Tsugawa Hideharu did not resist after being arrested, but was very cooperative with Kitaoka Tsunekazu's interrogation.
This completely different performance from other arrested drug traffickers made it impossible for Kitaoka Tsunekazu to use his abilities at all. To be honest, Tsunegawa Hideharu can be regarded as the most cooperative suspect that Kitaoka Tsunekazu has encountered in his life as a police officer.
During the interrogation process, not only did he tell the truth without any concealment about the issues raised against the police, but he sometimes even provided evidence to prove his guilt.
The entire interrogation process only gave Kitaoka Tsunekazu one feeling, that is, Tsunegawa Hideharu really wanted to go to prison and eat a big bowl of prison food. Such abnormal behavior also puzzled Zong Takuya:
"I don't know, did Tokyo's prison treatment improve a lot? Why is this guy so impatient?"
Sotakuya's eyes met Kitaoka Tsunekazu's, and the experienced Kitaoka saw confusion in Sotakuya's left eye and confusion in his right eye, and his whole person showed a lack of understanding.
Kitaoka was not surprised, because he had been in Sotakuya's current state for a long time, and the more he interrogated Tsukawa Hideharu, the more numb he became to the feeling of confusion.
Let’s just say that if you were so cooperative, why did you run away from the apartment in the first place? Wouldn’t it be better to come to the Metropolitan Police Department and surrender?
After looking through the confession interrogation records, Sotakuya suddenly asked Kitaoka: "Didn't you ask where his subordinates are?"
"There is no police department yet. I found that the situation was a bit too bizarre and I quickly reported it to you."
Kitaoka Tsunekazu shook his head. This unreasonable cooperation made him, an old man, feel on pins and needles. At this time, it would be better to seek information from his superiors.
Of course, there are some other situations in the record. Kitaoka has arranged for the police officers in the classroom to go and verify. Whether this Tsugawa Hideharu is really honest or is being cunning will be verified in a short time.
"Come on, let's go meet with this underground drug lord in Miwa Town and see what this guy is up to!"
...
When Sotakuya saw Tsugawa Hideharu again, he could no longer feel the shock and panic when he was raided by the police.
On the contrary, Sotakuya found that Tsugawa Hideji actually had a rare feeling of peace of mind in this interrogation room.
The joke that a drug dealer would feel at ease in an interrogation room is not funny at all. Judging from Tsugawa Hideharu's calmness at this time, if someone suddenly stood up and said that Tsugawa Hideharu was actually an undercover agent sent by the Metropolitan Police Department.
Zong Takuya had to think hard about whether this was true.
"Director Jinchuan? We were supposed to meet in the library last week, but unfortunately you were not at work at that time, which is a bit regrettable."
Sotakuya sat across from Tsugawa Hideji and used the library as the starting point for their conversation.
"There's nothing to be sorry for, police officer. The reason why I wasn't in the library last week was because the last batch of goods was sold out. Even if I went there, it would be of no use."
"I simply gave myself a rare vacation. I have already told the Kitaoka police officer about this matter."
Zou Takuya nodded: "Yes, there are really not many suspects who are as cooperative as Director Jinchuan. He is truly worthy of being the director, and he has great respect for us."
"Since Director Tsukawa has so much power over us, why not tell us where your subordinates are?" Sotakuya adjusted his sitting position:
"Or where should I find those people who have been helping you maintain the Rice Krispies Market? Please, Director Tsukawa, you can't convince me that the drug dealers from other areas don't enter the Rice Krispies Market."
"Is it because your charisma impressed them deeply?"
After Sotakuya finished speaking, he suddenly found that Tsugawa Hideharu, who had seemed very relaxed in the interrogation room, became nervous again, as if this question made him feel deeply uneasy.
It's like a life-threatening talisman is about to be attached to your body.
When Sotakuya asked this question, Tsugawa Hideharu stopped cooperating and fell into accomplished silence. Without saying a word, he didn't even look in Sotakuya's direction.
Now Hideji Tsugawa looks more like his colleagues who were captured.
"Oh, Director Tsugawa, don't be like this. You were so cooperative when Kitaoka-senpai asked you questions, but you were so silent when I was here. You will make me think that you are targeting me."
Sotakuya knew that he had hit Tsukawa Hideji's weakness, and there was no telling that Sotakuya would catch a big fish after he opened his mouth.
"Well, it seems that Director Jinchuan has some small opinions on me, but it doesn't matter. I like to repay kindness with kindness."
"Although you are targeting me, I am not angry. Even though you do not answer my questions, I will not pursue them. I will follow the procedures."
"For example, Director Jinchuan, we will take you to the places you mentioned to identify the scenes. Fortunately, you have explained enough scenes and we have enough time."
"You're going to be spending the next month outside the Metropolitan Police."
"This is a rare freedom for a person like you who is about to be imprisoned. How about I still be a good person?"
As soon as Sotakuya finished speaking, he saw Tsugawa Hideji's eyes full of shock and disbelief. In the end, he gritted his teeth and said with extreme fear: "You devil, you devil!"
"You will definitely go to hell!!!"
