Chapter 450: Wrong Direction

Taro Tanaka, believing that he was close to solving the case, brutally tortured the owner of the grocery store, hoping to pry open his mouth and get him to explain how he assassinated Masao Kobayashi and what his motive was for assassinating him.

The owner of the grocery store was an ordinary person, who had never seen such a situation, was tortured and passed out several times, and he really couldn't stand the torture of the Japanese, so he began to make up all kinds of lies in order to delay the time of being tortured again.

According to the confession of the grocery store owner, Taro Tanaka also asked the Japanese military police to run around the city many times, but found that the other party's confession was completely fabricated, so he could only continue to intensify the torture.

In the end, the grocery store owner couldn't stand it anymore and could only beg Taro Tanaka and ask him what he wanted him to say.

Taro Tanaka was half angry, but he didn't dare to torture the owner of the grocery store to death, so he could only lock him up and wait for the next day to continue the trial.

At this time, it was already evening, and Yukio Fujita also returned to the special high class, and Taro Tanaka immediately went to Yukio Fujita's office to report that he had caught the murderer of Masao Kobayashi and was being interrogated, and the suspect had not confessed for the time being.

At this time, Taro Tanaka actually didn't know the real mission of Masao Kobayashi to come to Stone Town, but Yukio Fujita knew about the economic war counterfeit money plan.

After listening to Taro Tanaka's report, he was overjoyed and said, "Tanaka-kun, Kobayashi-kun came to Stone Town with a special mission. His murder is inevitably linked to the ambush of the Imperial Army truck on the main street of Longwang this morning, and you must make sure that the suspect confesses to being an accomplice. If you succeed in solving this case, I will recommend to the Governor that you be awarded a medal! ”

At this time, Yukio Fujita was agonizing about how to investigate the ambush on the main street of Ryuomi, because he knew that this matter would definitely attract the attention of His Excellency the Chief of the Agency and the 'Matsu Agency', and it was very likely that the head of the Office would think that he was incompetent as the head of the Stone Town Special High School.

Now this report of Taro Tanaka is like a life-saving straw in front of Yukio Fujita, and of course he will hold on tightly.

But Tanaka Taro didn't have much confidence in breaking through the grocery store owner who was caught, because he basically used all the means, but he felt that the other party was tortured and still didn't tell the truth, and even pretended to be crazy and stupid when he couldn't stand it, but it was very much like a person with strong beliefs, which gave him a great headache.

Therefore, Taro Tanaka reported to Yukio Fujita in frustration: "Your Excellency, I have used countless methods against this suspect, but he has not confessed, even if he was tortured but fainted to death, he still played tricks when he woke up. For this kind of person, to be honest, I feel that it is not easy to break through his psychological defense. ”

Yukio Fujita was not angry but happy, he laughed out loud and said to Taro Tanaka: "Tanaka-kun, you didn't go to the scene on the main street of the Dragon King Temple, so you don't know the situation. After inspecting the scene, Yan Sang of the Stone Town Branch of the Secret Service Headquarters had a basic judgment that the operation of smashing the Imperial Army truck was most likely planned and carried out by the underground party organization of the Communist Party. Because he had seen the Communists in Shanghai in his early years, they had used similar methods to punish their traitors. Now this suspect you have caught is very much like a person with strong beliefs, and we all know that if it weren't for strong beliefs, basically no one would have survived our torture. Now I am more and more interested in this person, as long as we can both break through him, then these two cases will inevitably be solved, and it is even possible that through his confession, the entire underground organization of the Communist Party in Stone Town will be cracked! This is our only chance, Tanaka-kun, and you have to find a way to grasp this God-given opportunity. I think that sometimes torture doesn't always work, and you can consider using soft methods against him, women, money, or whatever he wants, and sometimes it works wonders. ”

Tanaka Taro saw that Yukio Fujita attached so much importance to this person, and a trace of ambition rose in his heart, Fujita Daisa was right, maybe he could succeed with a different way of thinking.

Thinking that if he succeeded in getting this suspect to confess, he would immediately have a golden path to promotion, Tanaka Taro couldn't help but be eager to try, he immediately bowed to Yukio Fujita and said, "Thank you for your advice, I will immediately interrogate that suspect." ”

Yukio Fujita is very satisfied with Taro Tanaka's work attitude: "Hello, this matter is up to Tanaka-kun." ”

As soon as Taro Tanaka left Yukio Fujita's office, the phone at Yukio Fujita's office rang with a 'jingle bell'.

Yukio Fujita immediately picked up the phone: "Moxi Moxi? ”

A very angry voice came from the other end of the phone: "Fujita-kun, what did you do?" Why are all the counterfeit fiat currency banknotes that are transported to you by the 'Pine Agency' burned by the anti-Japanese elements? Also, I heard that Masao Kobayashi, the 'Matsu Agency', was also poisoned by anti-Japanese elements? This economic warfare operation of the 'loose organs' is a special operation that the military department attaches great importance to, but you have screwed up! Now I have reason to think that you have a problem of gross negligence and malfeasance! You need to give me an explanation! ”

Yukio Fujita immediately stood up, held the telephone receiver with a straight body and replied: "Your Excellency, I really have caused you trouble, and I also know the seriousness of these two incidents. I am indeed responsible for the burning of counterfeit banknotes and the poisoning of Kobayashi-kun, and I cannot shirk this. However, I also have a little work progress that I would like to report to you. ”

The other end of the phone snorted and said, "Say, I want to see what you write about the progress of your so-called work!" ”

"Your Excellency, the first thing is that we have successfully captured the suspect who poisoned Kobayashi-kun, and we are currently interrogating, this person is untruthful in the face of our torture, and we are trying to find a way to break through his psychological defense, the purpose is to pursue it. I think there is an inevitable connection between the poisoning of Kobayashi-kun and the burning of counterfeit banknotes, after all, Kobayashi-kun has always appeared in Stone Town as an imperial merchant, and his true identity and mission are strictly secret, and few people in Stone Town know about it. I guess the anti-Japanese organization must have learned about Kobayashi-kun's identity and mission through some channel, so they poisoned Kobayashi-kun and burned those counterfeit banknotes at the same time. Yukio Fujita reported respectfully.

"Yaga! This is what you call work progress?! If you say that the suspect confesses, you may be able to say that the investigation has progressed, but I don't see anything happy in your words at all. The head of the 'Mei Agency' on the other end of the phone roared.
