Sotakuya knew that Odagiri Toshiro must have something to say, so he did not interrupt and quietly waited for his next speech.
“However, less than three days after the identity of the deceased was released, another member of the Genji Hotaru thief gang was killed in Kyoto.
The Yoshitsune, which proves his identity as a member of the thieves group, and a treasure map were found in the ancient art store he ran. "
Sotakuya sort of guessed what Odagiri Toshiro meant when he called him.
Not long after the police in the three places held a press conference, the murderer committed another crime.
Strictly speaking, it can be regarded as a provocation to the police in the three places.
Especially when the newly established investigation team, which is also the leading party in the search headquarters, is still the Metropolitan Police Department.
The police must respond resolutely to such provocative behavior. As the Minister of Criminal Affairs, Odagiri Toshiro will naturally not contact Megure Thirteen who is on the front line.
So Odagiri Toshiro called himself.
Sotakuya asked tentatively: "Do you need me to ask Officer Megure to speed up the investigation?"
To Zong Takuya's surprise, there seemed to be some problems with his guess just now.
"No, I'm afraid I need to trouble you to make a trip to Kyoto, Inspector Zong."
"?"
“In the Kyoto case, high school detective Detective Hattori Heiji, who provided important clues to the police, was just attacked by a murderer and is now hospitalized.
Osaka hopes to find the murderer and bring him to justice before the case expands its impact. "
That's it, that's it.
Zong Takuya finally understood.
The high school detective who provided the police with important clues, and the Osaka side hopes to catch the murderer as soon as possible.
To put it bluntly, Hattori Heizo felt sorry for his son's injury and hoped to catch the murderer quickly to avenge his son.
But he, the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters, could not directly participate in the investigation headquarters, and even Ginjiro Toyama, the head of Osaka Prefectural Police Criminal Affairs, could not participate.
Once they join the search headquarters, it means that the level of the search headquarters will be infinitely higher.
And Genji Hotaru herself was not up to the level of the investigation headquarters headed by the police inspector, so she approached Sotakuya in a roundabout way.
"I understand, Minister Odagiri. I will rush to Kyoto immediately to preside over the investigation of the case."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
After seeing Sotakuya understanding the meaning of this action, Odagiri Toshiro hung up the phone.
Not long after Odagiri Toshiro hung up the phone, Hattori Heizo and Toyama Ginjiro called Sotakuya respectively.
Hattori Heizang expressed on the phone that for Sou Takuya's help this time, the Hattori family owed Sou Takuya a favor.
As for Toyama Ginjiro, he asked Sotakuya to help take care of his daughter, Toyama Kazuha, after arriving in Kyoto.
The murderer of the serial murder case was so frantic that he started attacking Hattori Heiji, who had nothing to do with Genji Hotaru, so there was no guarantee that he would not target Toyama Kazuha.
What's more, Hattori Heiji's rescue this time was due to Toyama Kazuha.
If Toyama Kazuha hadn't followed Hattori Heiji and cleverly defrauded the gangster at the last moment, maybe the Hattori family's only family would have been lost in Kyoto.
So Takuya naturally agreed to the call from the two Osaka Prefectural Police bosses.
Whether it is presiding over the investigation of the incident or taking care of Toyama and Ye, it is always an easy task for Sotakuya.
If the three-region joint investigation headquarters still cannot find the murderer, the case of Hotaru Genji will be placed on Sotakuya's desk sooner or later. It would be an unexpected blessing to have Hattori Heizo owe a favor.
After the two-hour phone call ended, Sotakuya returned to the living room from the balcony, rubbing his ears.
After realizing that Miyano Shiho was still sitting on the sofa, he smiled apologetically: "Sorry, there is a temporary case at the headquarters, so I have to rush back."
Miyano Shiho shook his head coldly: "It doesn't matter. If you are going to Kyoto, would you mind taking me for a ride?"
"ah?"
After Miyano Shiho found a pair of gloves and put them on, he took out a small jar from the laboratory, took out one pill of the temporary antidote Type I of Drug A, put it into a small bottle and packed it separately.
"It seems that our voluntary drug testers can no longer endure it. In this case, it is better to start clinical trials in advance.
I also stopped by Kyoto to observe my 'guinea pig' up close. "
"In this case, let's set off quickly."
After calling Reiko Akiba to explain the current situation, Sotakuya took Miyano Shiho and rushed towards Kyoto.
.
After the two arrived in Kyoto, they parted ways.
So Takuya came to the Kyoto Prefectural Police Headquarters.
In a conference room, Zong Takuya met the main persons in charge of the three joint investigation headquarters-Megure Shisan and Shiratori Rensaburo of the Metropolitan Police Department.
Goro Otaki of the Osaka Prefectural Police, and Fumimaro Ayanokouji of the Kyoto Prefectural Police.
As soon as he entered the conference room, Zong Takuya unceremoniously took over the leadership of the search headquarters.
Most of the police officers present had the rank of police officers, so it was natural for Sotakuya to be the dominant police officer.
"Let's talk about the latest developments in the case." On the way to Kyoto Prefecture, Sotakuya had asked Sawada Hiroki to send him information about Genji Hotaru for review.
Regarding the case of Genji Hotaru's internal strife, Sotakuya already had a rough outline in his mind.
As expected, the report by Megure Thirteen and others did not go beyond the scope of the information given by Sawada Hiroki. After listening to a few words, Sotakuya interrupted Megure Thirteen:
"What I want is not these bulk goods. Before I came here, the head of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters contacted me and hoped that we could solve the case as soon as possible.
So, let's say something useful. "
"."
No matter whether it is Megure Jusan who is experienced in world affairs, Shiratori Rensaburo and Ayanokouji Fumimaro, who are from well-off families, or Otaki Goro who is a former Osaka Prefectural Police officer, they are not surprised that Hattori Heizo contacted Sotakuya.
His own son was attacked for no apparent reason. No father would be able to treat it as nothing happened.
The silence in the room at this moment was not because they wanted to confront Sou Takuya, but because the murderer's method this time was so neat and neat that he didn't leave any useful clues about the outcome.
The only achievement made by the Investigation Headquarters these days is the identification of four suspects based on the murder that occurred in Kyoto not long ago.
Great value, choose one of four.
"By the way, I remembered!" Otaki Goro broke the silence in the conference room and said excitedly to Sotakuya with a slap in the palm of his hand: "I visited Heiji after he woke up.
From him I got some new clues about Genji Hotaru! "
Genji Hotaru's gang of thieves disappeared eight years ago.
Eight years ago, the Genji Hotaru gang went into hiding after committing the last theft. According to Hattori Heiji's investigation, the target of Genji Hotaru's theft eight years ago was probably the treasure of Sannoji Temple in Kyoto Prefecture - the Yakushi Glass Buddha Statue. .
The treasure map found in the ancient art shop of Sakura Shozo, the latest deceased, is likely to be where the Buddha statue was hidden eight years ago.
Most of the internal strife among the members of Hotaru Genji's gang was over this Medicine Buddha statue.
