Chapter 94: All Rejoice
"Below...... Recently, the Metropolitan Police Department and the District Public Prosecutor's Office jointly cracked the case of collusion between five major construction companies and the murder of the executive director of Toshima Construction, creating a successful example of judicial cooperation between the Ministry of Justice and the National Police Agency......"
Looking at the packed reporters in the audience, although he was sitting on the stage near the corner, Lin Xiuyi still felt very restrained.
"Excuse me...... Regarding the arrested former Vice Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Seiichi Mori, what charges will the prosecution prosecute?"
"Sorry, the case is still under investigation, and we can't disclose this for the time being......"
"Is it convenient to disclose the specific details of this case, and what kind of evidence does the prosecution currently have?"
"In this regard, we have relevant recordings of the suspects discussing collusion and leaking trade secrets, as well as eyewitnesses at the scene, and we believe that the trial of the case will be very smooth......
……
"Got a recording?"
"And witnesses?"
"It seems that this time the former bureaucrats are really going to be doomed!"
Hearing the prosecutor's confident answer, the reporters in the audience couldn't help but cause a heated discussion, but out of consideration of the conflict of news, there will still be people at the scene who will continue to question it.
"Excuse me, is the source of the recording you are talking about legitimate?"
"Hmm...... The procedure is completely legal, after all, the District Prosecutor's Office only agreed to the police's use of the recording as evidence out of careful consideration of the case of Naobi Kogi. However, I didn't expect to accidentally discover the collusion alliance formed by the five major construction companies in secret......"
"Wait a minute, did you just say that the source of the information was from the police investigation?"
"Hey, it's Lin Xiuyi's police department sitting over there, and it's he who accidentally discovered clues about the collusion case in the process of investigating the murder of Xiaomu Zeng Zhibi......"
As Jingzi pointed his finger at Lin Xiuyi, who was sitting in the corner, the flash in the venue was aimed at Lin Xiuyi is a critical hit. This made Lin Xiu, who had always been a little low-key, feel a little uncomfortable for a while.
"Excuse me...... Forest Police Department, how did you find out that Seiichi Mori was the mastermind of the collusion case......"
"It is said that the wife of the deceased Kogi Zeng Naobi was also involved in this case, what is the secret behind this?"
"Today, it is rumored that Toshima Construction has successfully sold the contract rights for the built-in high-speed rail project to a competitor in a neighboring country, but is President Hosokawa, who played a major role in this crisis, also involved in this case?"
"Forest Police Department!"
"Forest Police Department!"
……
Looking at the questions pointed at him from the audience one after another, Lin Xiuyi's forehead couldn't help but break out in a layer of cold sweat, he looked at the expectant eyes in the audience with some restraint, and was silent for a long time but couldn't say a word.
……
"Metropolitan Police Department Detective Pulls Out Trillions of Collusion Cases"
"The former deputy secretary of affairs was defeated at the hands of the police department"
"The Ministry of Justice's Talent Exchange Program Gets Off to a Good Start, Elite Bureaucrats Join Hands with Detectives to Solve Strange Cases"
"The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism is in turmoil due to the new National Police Agency's new councillor"
……
"Why, why are the newspapers full of photos of Lin Xiuyi and the woman from the police department?"
Sitting at his desk, Masayoshi Sato checked the newspaper reports over and over again about the collusion case and the murder of Naobu Kogiso, only to find that the protagonist was only Lin Shuichi except for the scheming woman in the police department. As the Minister of Criminal Affairs, Masayoshi Sato was not even mentioned in the newspaper.
"This ...... I'm sorry, but the press conference was hosted by the National Police Agency, and we really couldn't be fully prepared!"
"Idiot, it's rare to be able to crack such a big case, and all the limelight in the Criminal Department has been stolen by that woman and Lin Xiuyi. ”
"Hey, but minister, although there are some regrets, but Lin Xiuyi is also from our criminal department, this time, we can't say that we have nothing to gain!"
Counselor Nakazono originally wanted to comfort Minister Sato, but as soon as he saw the minister's solemn face, he immediately swallowed the next words back!
"What do you know...... This incident was originally the credit of our Metropolitan Police Department, but now all the limelight has been stolen by the National Police Agency and the Ministry of Justice, and now how can I explain it to the Metropolitan Police Director's side, what a headache!"
"But Minister, wasn't this case meant to offend people? Why, you ...... now?"
"Idiot, don't you see that the trend of public opinion has changed now? Those guys from the five major construction companies have now been completely abandoned, and it is rare to have such a good opportunity for our criminal department to publicize it, and we missed it in vain, what a pity!"
"Minister, what are you going to do with that Lin Xiuyi now, do you want me to find a chance to go and knock him again?"
"Don't you see that he is very close to that woman now? Who doesn't know now that behind that woman is the Minister of Justice Nobuko Ando, and now is the time when he is in the limelight, do you want to be transferred to beat him at this time?"
"I'm really sorry, it's my subordinates who are stupid and ill-considered!"
"Hmm...... Forget it, since this Lin Xiu has always been dissatisfied with management, then let Nagao Keiko have a headache about him, the special search department, don't give them any important work for the time being, cool them down first, and wait until this limelight passes, and then you will not be too late to knock them......"
Hearing Minister Sato's instructions, Counselor Nakazono hurriedly responded with a few words, and then consciously picked up the empty teapot on the minister's desk and walked out of the office in a restrained manner.
……
As soon as Lin Xiu, who had managed to get out of the press conference at the National Police Agency, walked out of the venue, he immediately received a message from Keiko.
"You're doing well, detective, remember our celebration party?"
"Of course you won't forget, so why don't you go to the house you frequented at night?"
"Hmm!"
"Okay, then we'll see you in the evening!"
Looking at the last message sent by Lin Xiuyi, a satisfied smile appeared on Keiko's face. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, Jingzi looked out at the empty Imperial Palace opposite. The mood has also become extraordinarily good.
"This cooperation with Xiu Yijun is really good! Although this guy seems to be easy to compromise, he is indeed a stubborn guy who will not give up until he achieves his goal!"
Hearing Nobuko Ando's voice from behind, Keiko hurriedly turned around and responded:
"Teacher, you have always been very accurate in seeing people!"
"This time the cooperation between you is so smooth, it seems that you must have quietly helped him solve a lot of trouble!"
"It didn't help much, Anri Namba, I just helped Xiu Yijun introduce me a little. ”
"With this shield from the Special Investigation Department of the District Prosecutor's Office, Lin Xiu should be a lot less stressed when he investigates the case!"
"Hey, but he has to be really good! Otherwise, no matter how much I help, I won't be able to help!"
"So...... The purpose of your visit to the National Police Agency is to ask him to help you investigate your father's case?"
Hearing Nobuko Ando ask about her father's case, Keiko was silent for a while, and then he turned around again, facing the direction of the floor-to-ceiling window and said in a nonchalant tone:
"That thing...... There's no value in investigating anymore!"
