Chapter VI Gentlemen's Agreement
Shinagawa Tsunashi is indeed no ordinary police detective, since his fiancΓ©e died ten years ago, he is very unusual.
Although the police had long concluded that Yoshieko Sakuragi had died in a traffic accident and had nothing to do with murder, Shinagawa Tsunashi could not believe this conclusion anyway, because a month later, the driver who killed Yoshiko Sakuragi drove drunk and fell into the valley, and the police only found a body that was burned beyond recognition.
What's more, Ryoko Sakuragi has been searching for her long-lost sister and has found some clues.
Just as she was about to find out about the orphanage run by the Brotherhood, a car accident occurred.
There is absolutely no such coincidence in the world.
Afterwards, Shinagawa Tsunashi felt very guilty. If he had put more effort into helping his fiancΓ©e find his lost relatives at that time, instead of focusing on his career, maybe there would not have been this tragedy.
From then on, Shinagawa Tsunashi no longer acted according to the rules.
He insisted on surviving in order to find the murderer of Yoeko Sakuragi and stab the enemy. Unfortunately, the matter involves the Brotherhood, and the only clue is also ended with the perpetrator, so he cannot track it down, and the Metropolitan Police Department's superiors will not let him pursue it.
When he met Liu Wei, Shinagawa Tsunayoshi found an opportunity.
This guy is indeed extraordinary, and it can be seen at a glance that Liu Wei is not the master who keeps to himself, and is attached to the Brotherhood, just to achieve his personal goals.
If Shinagawa Tsunagara was an ordinary police detective, I am afraid that he would have pointed the finger at Liu Wei a long time ago.
Because he was not an ordinary police detective, he decided to use Liu Wei, or make a deal with Liu Wei.
Facing the enemy, it only took five minutes for Shinagawa Tsunara to vent the resentment that had accumulated for ten years, so that his resentful fiancΓ©e could look under the nine springs.
When he wiped the blood from his hands and walked out, his expression was as calm as usual.
"Do you need me to help you find that lost wife and sister?" Liu Wei handed over a cigarette.
Shinagawa Tsunagara was not polite, took the cigarette and took two puffs, and said, "No, I will be satisfied if I can make Ryoeko blind." β
"It's over, want to open a little."
Shinagawa Tsunashi shook his head with a smile and said, "You are a trustworthy person, and I will also fulfill my promise, but I must know what you are going to do next." β
"Kizaburo was ambushed by the ship company, what do you say I'm going to do?"
"To Osaka?" Shinagawa Tsunara frowned.
"Don't worry, I'll keep the impact to a minimum."
"What am I worried about? Osaka is not my territory, you can do whatever you like, but you deal with the boat company for the Brotherhood, it's better to distinguish the good from the bad, and don't implicate the innocent. β
"Of course."
"What do you want me to do?" Shinagawa Tsunara asked very directly.
Liu Wei smiled and said, "Dispose of Xi Saburo's body and let the police know that he was killed in the attack, and it was his assistant who escaped." β
Shinagawa Tsunashi immediately frowned. Liu Wei's meaning was very clear, and asked him to exchange the corpse.
"It's not me who killed him, and if you really want to find it, you can't find my head, right?"
"You ......" Shinagawa Tsunagara gritted his teeth, because it was he who killed Kizaburo, not Liu Wei.
At this time, Mobei Wolf came over with a bucket of gasoline.
"Don't use gas, use diesel." Shinagawa Tsunara hurriedly stopped the Mobei wolf. "The bulletproof car has a diesel engine, and if the body is burned with gasoline, the police will be able to find out quickly."
Mobei Wolf smiled and went to change the barrel of diesel again.
"I promise to help you do this, and we will not owe each other anything in the future."
"Detective, this is not to help me, but to help you." Liu Wei smiled and grabbed Shinagawa Tsunara's shoulder, "But you don't owe me anything, I just did a small favor to my friend, and I don't need anything in return." Now I can also give you a chance, a chance to make a great contribution. β
"What chance?"
"Do you want to know how Wu Teng Xiong'an died?"
Shinagawa Tsunagara was taken aback and looked at Liu Wei in disbelief.
"I can help you find the killer and bring her to justice."
Shinagawa Tsunagara was taken aback again, and immediately asked, "Wu Tenglan?" β
Liu Wei nodded. He uses "she" instead of "he" when he says this.
"It's a pity that I'm not a police officer in Osaka."
"Is the Iwataya attack closed?"
"You...... You mean......"
"Since the case is not closed, you have a reason to go to Osaka to investigate, right? If we can find out who killed Wu Tengxiong'an when investigating this case, will it be a great achievement? β
Shinagawa Tsunagara nodded thoughtfully, indicating that he understood what Liu Wei meant.
"Take care of this side and come to Osaka as soon as possible."
"Wait......" Shinagawa Tsunashi came back to his senses violently, "Liu ...... Why are you doing this? β
"How? Dealing with Wu Tenglan and the ship club? Liu Wei glanced at Shinagawa Tsunagara and said, "Hashimoto-kun promised to marry Yumi Xu to me, and I will be in charge of the brotherhood until Yumi becomes an adult." Xi Saburo plotted to usurp power, colluded with Wu Tenglan, and found someone to assassinate Yumi, I will never let him go, let alone Wu Tenglan. Only by defeating the shipyard can the Brotherhood live a stable life for a few days, Yumi's safety can be guaranteed, and my interests can be guaranteed. Don't think how noble I am, in front of interests, everyone is the same. β
"You...... Do you think that after taking out the Boat Society, the Brotherhood will have no enemies? β
"Of course there is, there are a lot of them, but one less is better than one more." Liu Wei let out a long breath and said, "Do you know why Hashimoto-kun chose me as his grandson-in-law?" The Brotherhood is already one of the five heroes of the Kanto region, and it is also ranked in the top 10 in the whole book. Going down this road, sooner or later there will be a confrontation with the authorities, and the outcome can be imagined. There is only one way out for the fraternity, and that is to change careers as soon as possible and run a legitimate business. β
"That's what you think?"
"Isn't it?" Liu Wei asked rhetorically and said with a smile, "It's a pity that Kizaburo and Kenjiro don't understand this truth, even if Yumi can understand it, it will have to wait until a few years later." Kantaro can't afford to wait, so he has to find someone to lead the boat company to the right path for him. β
"So he chose you?"
Liu Wei nodded and said, "With the threat of the ship club eliminated, the Brotherhood can at least enjoy a short period of peace." During this time, we will try to bring the Brotherhood on the right path. β
"Looks like you're pretty confident." Shinagawa Tsunagara also laughed.
"Isn't that what you cops are for?"
"If that's the case, I'm afraid a lot of police officers will lose their jobs."
"At least you won't be unemployed."
Shinagawa Tsunashi shook his head with a smile and said, "If you can do what you say, no matter what you do in Osaka, I won't interfere." As you said, if the Brotherhood can turn positive, at least the Kanto region will enjoy peace, and we won't have to work hard to solve the case all night and night. β
"Then you can't sit idly by."
"Oh?"
"There is more than just a fraternity in the Kanto region."
"You ......" Shinagawa Tsunara was stunned for a moment and said, "You still want to ......"
"If you want to protect your old friends and women, you have to do something, and not like in the past, treating the symptoms rather than the root causes. As for what else I want to do, I can't say it now, and I can't say it clearly. When that day comes, I hope you will hold your ground. β
Shinagawa Tsunashi hesitated for a moment and said, "If you can guarantee that the brotherhood will be turned into a regular member, I will definitely help you." β
"Shinagawa-kun, do you think you can maintain order by relying only on the police?" Liu Wei smiled and said, "The police are indeed the main force in maintaining social order, but not all. Even if other societies are eradicated and the Brotherhood is turned into a regular membership, new societies will emerge to fill the power vacuum. Only when the two forces strike a balance and establish common rules of the game can social order be maintained to the greatest extent. I also know that Shinagawa-kun must understand this truth, otherwise he has been acting according to his own rules all these years. β
"You ......"
"Do you know the Korean flag?"
"South Korea?"
"Think about the pattern on it."
Shinagawa Tsunagara was stunned for a moment, then understood.
"I can give you a guarantee, that is, I will do my best to unify the major communities in the Kanto region, and even the entire underground forces of the Zoben. In the meantime, I'll create enough opportunities for you to become a sought-after figure in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and even help you achieve things you couldn't have imagined before. β
"What do you want?"
"Nothing."
"Nothing?"
Liu Wei nodded and said, "Because you have long understood that no matter how hard the police try, they will not be able to eradicate the underground forces, so you will try to establish a balanced situation that is acceptable to both parties." β
Shinagawa Tsunara nodded and said, "You are indeed very confident, and I also believe that you have this ability." β
"Then it's a deal."
"It's a deal."
The two said yes, and Liu Wei let the Mobei wolf go in and burn the corpse.
After letting Dianbin stay to assist Shinagawa Tsunayo, Liu Wei rushed to Osaka with Mobei Wolf.
At this time, Kizaburo Hashimoto was ambushed on his way to Yokohama, and the news of the temporary cancellation of the engagement ceremony by the Hashimoto family had spread.
Although the police have not released the results of the investigation, no one believes that Kizaburo is still alive.
Yasutaro Hashimoto will definitely seek justice for his younger brother who died tragically, and the first thing to bear the brunt of is the boat company that has repeatedly made a fuss about the death of Taketo Yugishi.
Wu Tenglan soon received the news and knew that Yasutaro Hashimoto had managed Juno Yamano and Noh Watanabe.
As long as the authorities turn a blind eye, Yasutaro Hashimoto will be desperate to retaliate against the funaku.
An all-out war between the two societies is on the verge of breaking out.
Because the ship's cause of death will not be announced until after the funeral, and Kisaburo's death is a foregone conclusion, the situation is very unfavorable to the shiphold. Even if Wu Tenglan produced evidence that the Brotherhood had killed Wu Teng Xiongan, the assassination of Kizaburo would be considered a retaliatory act without warning.
In this case, this kind of "undeclared war" behavior is certainly unpopular.
The question is, was it really the ship company that sent someone to ambush Kizaburo Hashimoto?
After Wu Tenglan learned the news, the first thing he did was to ask Sakura Ogata to find out if anyone had taken the lead to assassinate Kizaburo without permission.
The conclusion is clear, no one has done it since her.
It's really the boat company's doing, and it can only be Kazuo Wu Teng and the Kondo family who colluded with him.
Now, things are complicated.
In the afternoon of the same day, Wu Tenglan put aside her troublesome affairs, ignored the funeral to be held the following day, and rushed to the "Sakura Garden" on the shore of Lake Biwa with her bodyguards to meet the patriarch of the Ogata family and her father, Kogoro Ogata.
Whoever ambushed Kizaburo, the shipyard couldn't get out of it.
At this time, the only one who can support Wu Tenglan is Ogata Kogoro.
