Chapter 770: The Fall of the Amaterasu Statue

The caretaker of the shrine next to Sensoji Temple was stunned when he saw the statue of Amaterasu collapsed with an internal arrow. 『』【No pop-up novel network baoly】

As soon as he waited for Yano Ken to leave, he hurriedly called the police, and then called the shrine main hall.

At the police station, the police officer who answered the report immediately felt that the matter was serious, and did not dare to delay, and immediately reported Yanagida Mei, who was reading the information in the office.

When Yanagida Mei heard this, she was also shocked, the collapse of the statue of Amaterasu was a rare dangerous event, and now it is within the jurisdiction of the police station where she is located, which is a very strict matter.

Without further ado, Yanagida Mei immediately reported to Inspector Oe, and then led a dozen or so policemen to the shrine.

The shrine near Sensoji Temple is not very large, and not many people usually come, but as soon as the statue of Amaterasu inside collapsed, it suddenly became a place of focus.

By the time Yanagida arrived, reporters from all walks of life had already surrounded the caretaker of the shrine and the special representative sent by the Shinseki Agency, Watanabe Masakachi, and asked him to express his opinion.

"As we all know, Shintoism is the state religion of our Toei country, Amaterasu is our supreme god, my emperor, is his son, for thousands of years, Amaterasu has blessed the sons and daughters of our Toei country, so that our Toei country prospered, and now, there are people who dare to damage the guardian god of our country, this is absolutely not allowed, we will urge the police to do their best to solve the case and bring the criminals to justice."

Watanabe Shoichi is about forty years old, his hair is half bald, and his speech is very sonorous and powerful, and he is not at all stunned under the many flashing lights.

"Mr. Watanabe, do you think the government will change the law because of this matter, you know, since the shrine was stripped out of the jurisdiction of the government, the shrine has been damaged, and the government will not take the shrine back into the hands of the government because of this matter" A female reporter saw Watanabe talking eloquently, and threw out the long-standing controversial topic in society and in the Diet.

Originally, these shrines in the Eastern Ei Province were previously managed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the Imperial Palace, and later, they were delegated to the government, and after the war, the Constitution of the Eastern Ying Kingdom stipulated the separation of church and state, so the original management personnel registered a religious corporation called the Shrine Headquarters, which was responsible for the management of thousands of shrines in the Eastern Ei Kingdom.

However, in recent years, there has been a trend of right-wing thought in the Eastern Ei Kingdom, which strongly demands that the shrines be nationalized, and in this way, it is necessary to revise the Constitution.

Watanabe Shoichi frowned when he heard this female reporter's question, this question is very tricky, and now, he is the official voice of the shrine headquarters, if he agrees, it is obvious that the opinions in the government will not be unified for a while, and he will be offside.

However, the answer to this question in his mind was clear, and he agreed to take the shrine back to the state, so that Shinto would be able to secure its position as the state religion in the eastern kingdom.

Watanabe Shoichi pondered for a moment and said, "The shrine is the symbol and protection of our Toei Kingdom, and of course we support the return of it to the state, and it is also a justification for Shintoism." ”

When these reporters heard Watanabe Shoichi's words, they couldn't help but feel shocked, and the flashing lights and microphones in their hands were all aimed at Watanabe Shoichi, the spokesman of the shrine headquarters, and the weight of his words was not light.

"May I ask Mr. Watanabe, at this time, your own opinion still represents the opinion of the shrine headquarters," another reporter hurriedly asked.

"I think most of the people in Dongying Country think so." Watanabe said vaguely that no matter how bold he was, he would not dare to make a decision on behalf of the authorities.

Just as the reporters were asking questions around Shoichi Watanabe, they suddenly saw Mei Yanagida arrive with the police.

The reporters hurriedly left Watanabe Shoichi and went to Yanagida Meiwei.

Yanagida Mei frowned, these reporters are like flies, if they are surrounded, they will not be able to get out for a while.

Thinking of this, Yanagida Mei ordered two policemen to block the reporter, and she led several policemen to rush into the temple.

The two policemen stopped the menacing reporters and said: "Our police inspector has just come here, and the situation has not yet been clarified, please calm down, and when you have an eyebrow, we will definitely report the matter to you."

However, these reporters listened to the police's obstruction, and one by one they held up cameras, cameras, and microphones and kept asking questions.

Watanabe was relieved to see the reporters running to the police, so he wiped his sweat, showed his ID, and came to one of the policemen at the door, saying, "I'm from the shrine headquarters, and I'm asking to go in and see the scene." ”

When the policeman saw that it was from the shrine headquarters, he knew that it was the top superior of the shrine, so he let the gap open and let Watanabe Shoichi enter.

When Yanagida Mikachi entered the shrine, she saw that the statue of Amaterasu had been shattered to the ground, and her head had been broken, and the colorful clay sculptures were scattered all over the ground.

Yanagida Mei frowned, although she didn't care as much about this statue as right-wingers, but after all, this was a religious place, and being destroyed like this made her heart very heavy.

The administrator of the shrine was sitting on the side, and when he saw Yanagida Mei coming, he hurriedly stood up and said to Yanagida Mei, "Miss Inspector, you are here." ”

Yanagida Mei nodded, didn't speak to the shrine administrator, just commanded a female policeman to take pictures and take pictures of the scene.

Then, Yanagida Mei ordered another policeman to write down the damage to Amaterasu in detail, and then walked to the shrine keeper.

At this moment, Watanabe Shoichi also hurried in, and as soon as he saw Yanagida Mei, he hurriedly walked over.

"Hello, Inspector Yanagida." Watanabe Shoichi stepped forward and stretched out his hand to greet Mei Yanagida.

Yanagida Mei nodded, this Watanabe Shoichi often deals with her father, so she is also familiar with this person.

"Inspector Yanagida, this is a very strict incident, if it is not handled well, the impact on society will be great." Shoichi Watanabe continued, intending to put pressure on Yanagida.

Yanagida Mi had already known from her father that the people in the headquarters of this shrine were all very difficult, and when she heard this person speak, she didn't care, but said lightly: "Mr. Watanabe, don't worry, we will definitely do our duty as a policeman." ”

Yanagida Mei said such a sentence, which was a very skillful diplomatic rhetoric, which made Watanabe Shoichi very dissatisfied, but he was helpless.

After saying to Watanabe Shoichi, Yanagida Mei walked in front of the shrine administrator and said, "It's you who called the police, let's tell me what happened." ”

The caretaker of the shrine stood up and said, "I came together this morning and started cleaning. ”

When Yanagida Mei heard that the shrine administrator was going to start from the beginning, she said impatiently, "Don't start from the beginning, you start with who came in." ”

The administrator of the shrine nodded, straightened out his thoughts, and said: "This morning, it was normal at the beginning, but there were no tourists, and there were no problems that I had encountered in these years. ”

Yanagida Mei nodded, of course she understood why there were no visitors to the shrine today, because, the three major samurai families were holding a samurai conference at Sensoji Temple, and for this, they had already received an application from the three samurai families.

"Later, at about eight o'clock, a group of big men came, there were more than 20 of them, and as soon as these big men entered the shrine, they asked me if there was no passage to enter Sensoji Temple behind, but I saw that they didn't look like good people, so I didn't tell them, but these big men didn't pay attention to me, and they went directly into the backyard and climbed over the wall into Sensoji Temple." Said the shrine administrator.

At this point, the shrine keeper paused and stopped talking.

"What's the matter, they climbed over the wall and it was over, then, who smashed this idol" Yanagida Mei saw that the shrine administrator was no longer talking, and couldn't help but wonder a little, so she asked.

"Yes, these big men climbed into the wall, and they didn't come out again, and the idol was smashed by someone else." Said the shrine administrator.

Yanagida Mei almost died of anger when she heard the administrator's words, and a policewoman next to her, who was making a note, almost laughed.

This shrine administrator is also too stupid, it's just speechless, can't he explain it when he speaks?

"Alright, let's start with the man who smashed the idol." Yanagida Mei was helpless and said to the shrine administrator.

The shrine administrator nodded, and then continued: "After the gang of big men left, after a while, two more people came in. ”

"It's two people this time," Yanagida asked.

"Yes, this time it's two people, as soon as these two people entered the house, they were also asking me about the way to enter Sensoji Temple, and I replied that I didn't know, so he was furious, and then he broke in, and I said no, he said that the people of Shinrikyo do things, and no one dares to say no."

When Yanagida Miichi heard the words "Shinrikyo," she was shocked and thought to herself, just one statue being damaged is an extremely difficult matter, and now that she has joined Shinrikyo, I am afraid that this matter cannot be handled by a police officer like herself, and she must let the state security department come out to solve it. “

Watanabe Shoichi was shocked when he heard the shrine keeper say that he was a member of the "Shinrikyo religion".

First of all, the subway was poisoned, so that the head of the sect, Masao River, was imprisoned, and Shinrikyo continued to make trouble, and the parliament quarreled over the constitutional amendment to prohibit Shinrikyo.

Thinking of this, Watanabe Shoichi couldn't care about Yanagida Mei beside him, so he hurriedly asked, "The god statue is the Truth Religion, how did these two people destroy it?"

The keeper of the shrine nodded and said, "Yes, this idol was destroyed by these two truth-cultists, and the truth-cult person, after saying that no one dared to stop the truth-believers from doing things, with a wave of his hand, he destroyed this idol." ”

Yanagida Mei heard the shrine administrator say that Shinrikyo destroyed the idol with a wave of his hand, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, is this magic or witchcraft

However, the shrine administrator is speaking upside down, and he can't be trusted, so it's better to ask.

Watanabe Shoichi was next to him, but he didn't think as much as Yanagida Mei, he had always known that this Shinrikyo was weird, and the disciples all practiced a strange kung fu, anyway, it was very evil in society, and now it seems that this Shinrikyo does have a headache.

"Are you sure that the Shinrikyo was useless for anything, just destroyed the idol with a wave of his hand," Yanagida continued to ask the shrine administrator.

"It's true, I can swear to the idol, everything I say is true." When the shrine administrator saw that Yanagida Mei didn't believe what he said, he couldn't help but be very anxious, and hurriedly swore an oath.

Yanagida Mei believed that what the shrine administrator said was true, she pondered for a moment, and then said to Watanabe Shoichi: "Mr. Watanabe, you heard it, this case, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to handle it." ”

Watanabe nodded his head, and then said: "Inspector Yanagida, don't worry, I will put pressure on the government through various channels, and I want them to send the most elite national security personnel to help you handle this case." ”

Yanagida Mei nodded, she knew that Watanabe Shoichi had the ability to put pressure on the government.

"So, Mr. Administrator, tell me what these two people look like," Yanagida Mei turned to the shrine administrator and said lightly.

"One of them, very thin, in his thirties, and the other one, younger." The shrine keeper struggled to recall.

After asking the shrine administrator, Yanagida Mei sent someone to apply for a search warrant, and she was going to take someone into Sensoji Temple to search.

At this time, Shen Lang and the others had already evacuated Sensoji Temple, not to mention the Yano-kun who left first
