Chapter 22: Lin Xiuyi's suspicions
"I'm going to access all the files related to Kuroda in the Tokyo subway bombing!"
After ending the call with Shoji Kuroda, Lin Shuichi immediately returned to the Metropolitan Police Department. Now that Shoji Kuroda has opened a new condition, Lin Shuichi has to try it anyway. So the documents related to the Tokyo subway bombing, which has always been classified as top secret, have become something that Lin Xiuyi needs to investigate.
"This is impossible, these are all state secrets, and they are only qualified to inspect them with the authorization of the Public Security Commission......" The head of the General Affairs Division of the Public Security Department rejected Lin Xiuyi's request.
"Listen, Shoji Kuroda personally told me to investigate why he dealt with the police? I haven't had any dealings with the Metropolitan Police Department since he was extradited back to Japan, so I think about it, and the problem is most likely to be the Tokyo subway bombing that year......" Hayashi Shuichi patiently communicated with the head of the Hijikata Division.
"No, no matter who you are, as long as you don't have the authorization of the State Public Safety Commission, you must not be able to view such a confidential document!" said the head of the Hijikata Division.
"Okay! I'll ask Councilor Ando for advice right now!" Lin Xiu immediately took out his phone and dialed Keiko's mobile phone as soon as he finished speaking.
"Xiu Yijun, how's the progress?" As soon as Keiko received the call, she immediately asked about the progress of the matter.
"Just now, Shoji Kuroda took the initiative to contact the Metropolitan Police Department and asked us to investigate the Tokyo subway bombing case that year, and I want to check all the files related to Kuroda!" Lin Shuichi asked on the other side of the phone.
"Shuichi-kun, this is impossible, such a confidential document can only be accessed with the authorization of the Public Security Committee, although Councilor Ando fully supports you, but we can't guarantee that other members can also support you, do you understand?"
"Hey!"
"Got it, keep concentrating on finding the whereabouts of the bomb! you're running out of time!" Keiko urged, a little anxiously.
"Hey!"
Keiko then hung up.
Lin Xiu glanced at the head of the earthwork section who was waiting for a reply, and then he continued to say to the phone that had been hung up:
"I know, don't make an example, thank you Senator Ando for me, yes, I will definitely seriously investigate the information about the bombing case back then, excuse me, goodbye!"
Lin Xiuyi then pretended to hang up the phone, but in fact, he turned off the screen of the mobile phone.
"The head of the Hijikata Division, Congressman Ando, said that if you still have any objections, you can directly confirm with the National Public Safety Commission, and from now on, I have been authorized by the Public Safety Commission to access all the information on the bombing case of that year......"
Lin Xiu announced to the head of the earthwork section without changing his color and heartbeat, and even handed over his mobile phone to the other party, in fact, he did not get the other party's authorization at all. Lin Xiuyi bet that the thirteenth earthy party would not dare to really consult the authenticity of the authorization from the State Public Security Commission!
The head of the earthwork section hesitated for a long time, took a few steps closer to Lin Xiuyi, slowly raised his hand, as if he wanted to take the phone, Lin Xiuyi's heartbeat began to become faster and faster, just when Lin Xiuyi thought that the earthwork thirteen really wanted to call to confirm, the earthwork section chief suddenly beckoned to Lin Xiuyi, and then said: "Follow me!"
Lin Xiuyi looked at the figure of the head of the earthwork section turning away, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he slowly put down the hand holding the mobile phone, and followed the head of the earthwork section to a computer. The head of the Metropolitan Police Division then logged into his account on the Metropolitan Police Department's internal information network, and immediately retrieved all the relevant information about the Tokyo subway bombing. The head of the Hijikata Division, a senior police officer of the Ministry of Public Security, was also involved in the investigation of the Tokyo subway bombing. So he naturally has access to these highly classified contents.
Lin Xiu thanked the head of the earthwork section, and then began to look up all the information about Kuroda.
According to the transcript of the police interrogation at the time, the direct maker of the bomb in the Tokyo subway bombing was not Kuroda Shoji, but the middle-level cadre of the emerging religious organization Doomsday Trial, Yoshii Kazuhashi. According to the police transcript, because Kazuji Yoshii did not have enough knowledge to make the semting bombs that could easily evade security checks, the design of these bombs was handled by Shoji Kuroda, who had considerable experience in explosives, and the two were in contact through the Internet.
The transcript contains a complete exchange record between Kazuaki Yoshii and Shoji Kuroda, in which Kuroda completely taught all the processes and precautions for how to make Semtin 1A, as well as the location of the security explosives during blasting, such as how to use the minimum amount of explosives to destroy the overall structure of the building to the greatest extent, and the content taught is very professional. It can be seen from this exchange record that Yoshii Kazuzhao had great respect for Shoji Kuroda, and he called Kuroda his beloved Master Kuroda.
Lin Xiuyi roughly skimmed through all the relevant information. It wasn't until he finally began to check the police interrogation transcripts and Yoshii's trial records that Lin Xiuyi noticed that something was wrong.
In the police interrogation record, when the interrogating police officer asked Yoshii and Kuroda about the record of their last conversation, Yoshii replied: "Master Kuroda asked me not to use too many explosives at one time, because Semtin was so powerful, and he told me that the bombs in the Lockerbie air crash were only more than 100 grams!"
In court, when the judge asked the same question, Yoshii replied, "Master Kuroda told me not to use too many explosives at once, because Semtin was so powerful, and he told me that the bomb in the Lockerbie air crash was only about 280 to 400 grams!"
When Lin Xiuyi flipped to these two paragraphs at the same time, he immediately sensed something unnatural. Why did the interrogation record say something as uncertain as "more than 200 grams," but in court it said with certainty that "it's only about 280 to 400 grams"? Could it be that Yoshii re-examined the relevant data while in custody? Would he have been allowed to read such a thing in the Tokyo detention center? How could it be?
Lin Xiuyi then checked the relevant information about the Lockerbie air disaster from the Internet, and the information showed that the bomb used by the terrorists did weigh about 280 to 400 grams. In other words, the data Yoshii said in court was correct. But if it is really wrong, why not when it is time to go to court, isn't people's memory becoming more and more blurred with time, how can it be reversed and become clearer and clearer?
Of course, there may be a possibility that Yoshii's testimony in court was not true, but was deliberately arranged. The Tokyo subway bombing case, such a big case, the public security will not use some shady means, right?
