Chapter 55 Residents' Meeting

"Minister, Chief Cabinet Secretary of the Long Tail is here, do you want to see him now?"

"Huh, please let her in!"

Hearing the news of Nagao Keiko's visit, Nobuko Ando couldn't help but turn around from the window, and then responded to her secretary. Immediately after, Ando's secretary took Keiko out of the room.

"Teacher, it's really a bit rude to say hello for a long time!"

"Oh...... Keiko-chan is still so energetic! Do you still focus all your energy on work as you did when you were by my side?

"Teacher, thank you for your concern!"

……

After a brief pleasantry, Nobuko Ando did not return to his seat, he beckoned to Sakurako, and then called her to the window. Seeing this, Ando's secretary hurriedly said goodbye to the two, and then left the room and closed the office door with him.

"It's almost the New Year!"

"Huh, teacher?"

"Nothing, Keiko-chan! Have you ever thought about it...... One day like your father...... What about going into politics?"

"Teacher, now discuss this issue...... It's too early!"

"Yes, until the stigma of Hojo's predecessors is washed away, you can't inherit your father's political legacy, so ...... We need Lin Xiuyi so much now!"

"Teacher, you ......"

"I just sighed! Thinking of the difficulty of the "Recidivism Prevention Act" when it was passed in the Diet a year ago, I greatly admired the persistence of Hojo's predecessors back then!"

"Teacher!"

"Ah...... It's just remembering something from the past...... It's just a little emotional!"

……

Hearing Nobuko Ando praise her biological father, Keiko couldn't help but salute Nobuko Ando heartily. After the ceremony, Keiko asked Ando frankly:

"Teacher, what do you say...... Do we need to give Lin Xiuyi a police look...... How about some help?"

"Lin Xiuyi, is there any progress on his side?"

"I'm really sorry, but I'm still investigating the Sumiyoshi Kai for the time being......"

"Sumiyoshikai?"

"Hey!"

"Keiko-chan, if it's Sumiyoshikai, it's really a bit difficult to rely on the ability of the Shinjuku Central Police Station alone!"

"Teacher...... What do you mean......"

"Keiko-chan, what do you think is up to you to come forward and hold a meeting with the residents......? For the Olympics, we will affect the existing order in the Kabukicho area, but ...... After all, the Olympics will attract more tourists from overseas to Tokyo. If the local residents could share in the tangible benefits, I think it would be easier to solve the problem."

"Teacher...... I see! I'll make arrangements for the residents' meeting as soon as possible!"

"That's good, I will also instruct the Immigration Bureau to strengthen the review of foreigners' entry exemptions. I believe that in this way, it will be easier for us to win the understanding of the local residents."

……

Hearing what Nobuko Ando meant, Keiko's heart couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It can be seen that Minister Ando's biggest beneficiary in doing so must be the Sumiyoshikai, who represents the local faction. Foreign violent groups that are involved in the Kabukicho area will reduce their involvement in Kabukicho under the double blow of the National Police Agency and the Immigration Management Center.

……

"The police department, we have investigated the visitor records about the history of Hojo Saishi during his lifetime, you see...... Before his death, there was a person who visited Hojo frequently. ”

"Oh?"

As soon as Lin Xiu heard Miki's report, he immediately put down the information in his hand, and then checked it. When he saw that the visitor's name was written on it, Ando's name was written, he immediately frowned.

"Is it ......?"

"It should be the father of the current Minister of Justice, Nobuko Ando, I just investigated the relationship between the two from the Internet, and found that there was no mention in the media that there was any contact between them. But...... According to our previous investigation, it is said that Kishi Hojo once persuaded Ando to refuse to sign Shoji Kuroda's death sentence. I don't understand that......"

"Police, and we also learned from the prison administration. It is precisely because Hojo Qishi helped Kurojo Shoji get the death sentence that those felons in prison will worship Hojo Qishi as a god. In this way, it may not be difficult to understand why Hojo Saishi was able to convince the prison management to hand over the kitchen to the inmates!"

……

Hearing Miki's analysis, Lin Xiuyi quickly understood what his subordinates wanted to express.

"I see, you mean to say that the status of Hojo Saishi actually comes from the then Minister of Justice Ando Taishan, right?"

"Hey!"

"If that's the case, if there is any conflict between Hojo Saishi and Ando Taishan, then Hojo Saishi will also lose his umbrella, right?"

"Hey, so...... Do you think it can be assumed that Hojo Saishi actually had some handle about Ando Taishan, so he used this handle to blackmail Ando Taishan to use the power of the Minister of Justice in the case of Shoji Kuroda to achieve his own goals, so as to earn himself god-like status in prison......

"Miki...... There's something wrong with this assumption......"

"Huh?"

"That's why Hojo Qishi chose Shoji Kuroda, if he really wants to blackmail Ando Taishan, why don't he use his brains for his case?"

"Police? This ......"

"There is another thing we already know in this, that is, Shoji Kuroda was indeed wronged back then. If Hojo Saishi knew the truth, it was not incomprehensible that he asked Ando Tarzan about it. But...... That way, we don't have any suspicions!"

"Police?"

"Miki, according to what we know now, although Hojo Saishi's identity is a prisoner, he has a transcendent position in the Tokyo detention center, and he also has an extraordinary relationship with the then Minister of Justice, so it stands to reason that he ...... Such a big man in prison should be the object that everyone wants to please......! Who would want to kill such a big man?"

"Could it be because of political enemies or something, maybe the Imperial Hotel case that happened back then was also framed, Kuroda They wasted so much effort, didn't it just let me investigate in this direction?"

Section Chief Matsuda suddenly raised his head and said to Lin Shuichi very seriously.

"yes, I'm thinking about it, but it's been so long, unless we can find reliable witnesses, ...... The case of Hojo Saishi cannot be overturned at all......"

Lin Xiuyi said as he clicked on his FBI mailbox, and when he saw the latest unread email received in the email, Lin Xiuyi's attention was immediately attracted.
