"It can't go on like this, more and more people are dying......! We're not making any progress at all!"

In Lin Xiuyi's office, Section Chief Matsuda said such a thing to him in front of Lin Xiuyi. And Lin Xiuyi frowned and held the report handed to him by Miki and Urashima, and couldn't help but feel a little difficult to choose.

"Listen to me, immediately order the whole city to search for Kuroda's whereabouts, otherwise we will have to sit back 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. is 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.

"Section Chief, do you know what this report in my hand means? It means that Hojo Saishi, who was once detained in the Tokyo Detention Center, is likely to have been poisoned to death. In just two years, his physical condition suddenly deteriorated dramatically, and the death record did not mention his illness. And a series of recent events, all of which are inseparable from the deceased former congressman, do you know what that means? Shoji Kuroda...... Whether it was the case in Ginza twenty years ago or the death of Hojo Saishi a few years ago, everything was full of suspicions. So...... The truth behind it...... What the hell is it?"

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

After being silent for a long time, Section Chief Matsuda couldn't help but ask Lin Xiuyi a little helplessly:

"Of course, I continued to investigate, but ...... Instead of investigating the whereabouts of Shoji Kuroda, it is investigating the death of Kishi Hojo and the truth about the case of the Imperial Hotel in Ginza that year. ”

……

After Lin Xiuyi said this, he suddenly stood up and said to Miki and Urashima, who were sitting on the side:

"I remember...... At the time of the trial of the Ginza Imperial Hotel case, the mother of the club to which the deceased hostess belonged testified in court, right?"

"Eh, but ...... The other party has already moved to the United States!"

"It doesn't matter, I think...... My friend Sean will definitely have a way to do this kind of thing!"

……

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

"Perhaps...... When we investigate the matter of Hojo Saishi, things may turn around. So next, I would like to go back to the Tokyo Detention Center and ask where the prisoners who know Hojo Saishi are being held. Let's see if they have any impressions of Hojo's health back then......"

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

Miki couldn't help but feel a little worried about him when she heard that Lin Xiuyi still wanted to track down Hojo Qishi despite his own situation.

"If you can, I hope you can find more clues about the death of Hojo Saishi, and ...... I would also like to ask you to investigate the social relations of Saishi Hojo and see if anyone is the object of suspicion. As for the seniors, if you can, can you rely on your past friendships to inquire with Takayama Jianshi of Sumiyoshikai and see if there was anything unusual about Fukuda Harushi before he was killed!"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's request, Section Chief Matsuda nodded and agreed without hesitation, while Lin Xiuyi picked up his coat and left his office at the Shinjuku Central Police Station.

……

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

"When we first met, I was the investigator in charge of investigating the prison escape this time - Lin Xiuyi. If I may, I'd like to ask you a few questions, I wonder what you think?"

"Ah...... Sorry if you want to inquire about Mr. Sakuraba's whereabouts, I would like to ...... I can't meet your requirements......! I don't even know where they are now!"

"I'm sorry, you may have misunderstood what I meant, but I'm here today to ask about some information about Mr. Saishi Hojo during his lifetime. Like what...... Regarding the case that occurred at the Ginza Imperial Hotel 20 years ago, Mr. Hojo was ...... before his death Did you reveal anything about that?"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's question, the prisoner sitting opposite him couldn't help but look at him with some confusion. At this moment, Lin Xiuyi noticed that the other party wanted to speak several times, as if it was difficult to make up his mind.

"I want to ...... You should be able to answer my question! after all...... The reason why you did this kind of thing is probably because you want to make people pay attention to Hojo's affairs!"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's straightforward statement, the suspect was extremely surprised at first, and then it wasn't until a long time later that he slowly came back to his senses.

"Mr. Policeman, may I ask...... Are you really willing to investigate Mr. Hojo's affairs?"

"As I said, I'm the investigator in this case, so ...... As long as it is related to the case, I will investigate it clearly!"

"In that case, I'll tell you, Mr. Hojo has never hurt anyone, so ...... He's definitely not a murderer!"

"I'm sorry, but your statement doesn't help me. And...... I've already heard something similar from Goro Sakuraba's statement. So...... If there is no evidence, the testimony of a few of you alone will not prove anything!"

"Mr. Policeman, you want evidence, right?"

"Yes, I must get enough evidence to prove the innocence of Hojo Saishi in order to overturn the verdict of that year!"

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

"Then prove your sincerity, or how can we put such an important thing in the hands of a stranger who cannot be trusted!"

"So...... What do you want me to do? What do you want me to do?

"Mr. Policeman, please find out the murderer of Mr. Hojo first, and when you find that guy, those evidence...... Naturally, someone will deliver it to you!"

As soon as the suspect said this, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Immediately afterward, the suspect raised his hands and signaled that he wanted to leave.
