Chapter 29 Coordination Meeting

"A coordination meeting for the Shibuya Halloween parade?"

Hearing the report of Section Chief Adachi, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but look at the other party with some puzzlement.

"Ah! As I told you before, regarding the security of the Shibuya Halloween Parade, it is customary for us at the Shinjuku Central Office to coordinate with the Shibuya Central Office every year to see how we can ensure that the Halloween event is carried out in an orderly manner...... That's one of the reasons why the Shibuya Central Office has been asking us for help!"

"Ah...... I'm really embarrassed, Mr. Adachi, but I don't have any experience with security issues related to large-scale events, so ...... Can you please sort out the security plans from previous years, so that I can have another general understanding?"

"Huh...... Hi...... Hey, sure, but ...... About the Coordination ......"

"Oh...... I'll be on time!"

……

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's words, Section Chief Adachi's hanging heart finally relaxed. Since the last Director's Cup event, Deputy Director Hayashi Shuyi of the Shinjuku Central Police Department has suddenly become a figure that the chiefs of the major central police stations are reluctant to mention. The reason for this is actually because Lin Xiuyi has broken a set of systems and conventions that have been formed by the Central Police Station in terms of personnel promotion over the years.

For people who don't fit in, isolation is inevitable. However, this meeting was a rare opportunity to repair the relationship between the Shinjuku Central Agency and the Shibuya Central Agency. After all, the jurisdiction of the two central administrations borders each other, and it is simply inevitable that the case will be handled across the border, and if the relationship is too stiff, it will not matter who it is...... It's all a very troublesome thing.

When the head of the Adachi Division walked out of the director's office, he didn't walk a few steps past the temporary office space rented by the Metropolitan Police Department's Organized Crime Countermeasures Division 5. When Adachi passed by the door, he couldn't help but stop and look at the chief of the main hall who was working inside, and for a moment, he couldn't help but feel some envy in his heart.

"Alas...... It would be nice if I had the opportunity to work in this department when I was young, although the Central Agency is much better than the average police station, but it still can't be compared with the elites of this agency who come into contact with big and important cases every day, I'm afraid that even if I retire, I won't have the opportunity to shoot!"

When Adachi stood outside the office for a while, the people inside gradually noticed him. Seeing someone look at themselves with a wary look. Adachi immediately realized that his actions might cause misunderstanding, so he bowed his head and saluted the colleagues in the room, and then quickly walked towards the office of the criminal division.

……

After lunch, when Hayashi Shuichi rode his car with Adachi to the Inaribashi area of Shibuya Station, where the Shibuya Central Police Station is located, the car drove straight into the underground parking lot of the police station building. Then, without waiting for Lin Xiu to get out of the car, the bureaucrat in charge of reception at the Shibuya Police Station opened the car door for Lin Xiuyi early, and then said to Lin Xiuyi enthusiastically:

"Director Hayashi, welcome to Shibuya Central Office for the first time! We, Director Kagawa, are already waiting for you upstairs!"

Seeing such a warm reception from the other party, Lin Xiuyi had no choice but to say a few polite words to the other party, and then, he and Section Chief Adachi were led by the other party to an office upstairs in the Shibuya Central Police Station. At the same time, an older police officer sitting next to him stood up and greeted Lin Xiuyi warmly:

"Lin Police Department, you are finally here, we will wait for you this coordination meeting!"

"I'm really sorry to keep the two seniors waiting!"

……

Just after Lin Xiuyi finished saluting Director Kagawa, who was a senior, the bureaucrat who had been sitting in the middle suddenly raised his head, and then asked Lin Xiuyi with some suspicion:

"You are Lin Xiuyi?"

"Hey, I haven't asked yet...... You are ......"

Hearing the other party call out his name, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but ask the other party with some doubts:

"I'm Shinzo Asano, a counselor at the Public Security Department of the Metropolitan Police Department, and I've heard about you at the Metropolitan Police Department before, but ...... It's the first time we've met!"

"Excuse me, excuse me...... Isn't it a meeting held today to coordinate security matters regarding the Shibuya Halloween parade?"

"That...... I would like to ask Counselor Asano to explain the specific situation to you!"

Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart when he saw Director Kagawa's somewhat embarrassed expression, but ...... He quickly sat down in the seat next to him, and then asked Counselor Asano with a calm expression:

"Excuse me...... Why is this security coordination meeting being attended by the public security department of this department?"

"Lin Police Department, there seems to be some unusual relationship between you and Kuroda Shoji!"

"Excuse me...... Are you referring to ......"

Hearing the other party suddenly mention Kuroda Shoji, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but feel even more curious.

"Hehe, it's just a joke, but...... For this Shibuya Halloween parade, we at the Ministry of Public Security really need the full cooperation of the two central police stations under our jurisdiction......"

After Shinzo Asano finished saying this, he immediately took out two pieces of information with the word "confidential" from the briefcase beside him and handed them to the two of them, and then sat there quietly waiting for the other party to read the information.

Lin Xiuyi turned the first page with some curiosity, and then saw a blurry photo, as well as the faces of the people in the picture after the photo was enlarged and processed.

"It's ......"

"This is the last time we found Shoji Kuroda to show up, and there is definite information to show it...... Shoji Kuroda seems to be buying dangerous explosives from a yakuza group of Korean descent......"

"Explosives?"

Hearing the words of the other party, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but be taken aback.

"Hey, but according to our information, this batch of explosives has not yet been delivered to Kuroda. ”

"Wait a minute, can I ask what kind of explosives it is, with what I know about Kuroda, if he really plans to make bombs, he doesn't need to buy dangerous explosives from other people, as long as he wants, he can even use civilian chemicals to make the explosives he wants......"

"I'm sorry Lin Police, but the information that our public security has ...... There's absolutely no way you can go wrong!"

As soon as Lin Xiu finished speaking the question in his heart, Counselor Asano unceremoniously interrupted him.
