Chapter Eighty-Seven: Great Passivity
Endo followed suit: "Then what should we do now?" Even if we know that Mitsubishi's Matsumoto did it, we don't have any evidence, so everyone will suspect us! ”
Tang Ning soothed: "What are you afraid of, the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth, and it is not so easy to wronged me Tang Ning, not to mention that I didn't do it, even if it was really me, I have to bite it to death and not admit it." By the way, is it the director of the Metropolitan Police Department who came to inquire today? ”
Endo shook his head: "It's not the head of the Metropolitan Police Department, it's not even a few section chiefs we are familiar with, but a police officer named Kido." ”
Tang Ning snorted coldly: "It seems that this is Mitsubishi's dog, hmph, a small police officer dares to investigate me?" You go and let Higashino see him, and by the way, find out everything he knows, and then call me Okubo and Matsuda, and the matter must be investigated in the shortest possible time, and then I can report it to the family board of directors. ”
After nearly an hour, Higashino, who was full of solemnity, walked into the study, first saluted Tang Ning, and then said hello to Okubo, Endo, and Matsuda Yoshiko, before he spoke: "Boss, things are really a bit troublesome, Jerry and Tom died near a remote house in Shinjuku District, and there was another deceased person present, who was Miss Akiko's brother, and found some information about our factory on him, although it is not a secret, but it is not something that ordinary people can know." In addition, the police learned from other sources that Jerry's purpose of this trip was to take over your property, so the police suspected that he was trying to buy unfavorable information from Akiko's brother, and you killed him.
Of course, I have firmly denied this matter as you instructed, and asked the police not to harass you without reasonable evidence. ”
Okubo said a little depressed: "They are very well arranged, at first glance it is really reasonable, and it is really easy to be bluffed if it is thrown to someone who does not know the inside story." By the way, Mr. Higashino, did you ask the police how they learned about the conflict between Mr. Jerry and his boss? ”
Higashino frowned and replied: "Why didn't you ask, but this guy named Kido doesn't know where he got out, it's stinky and hard, and he doesn't say anything, just asking us to cooperate with them, and it's almost the boss who sent someone to kill Jerry." ”
Tang Ning waved his hand: "This is normal, this guy is obviously a dog raised by Matsumoto, otherwise how can a small police officer have the courage to investigate me, Higashino, you immediately go to Director Kobayashi of the Metropolitan Police Department and ask him to help obtain police information; Okubo and Matsuda, you should start investigating this matter now, and try to get the evidence in the shortest possible time, so that I can report it to the family board of directors. ”
Unfortunately, Downing's reaction was still a step slower, or rather he was too cautious to delay the time, and he received two telegrams from New York that afternoon. One was sent by the family board of directors, and the wording was extremely harsh, requiring Downing to immediately begin an investigation into Jerry's death and be responsible for the matter, and the board of directors would send someone to Tokyo in the near future to follow up on the progress of the matter.
In fact, the board of directors also knew that this matter should not be Tang Ning's doing, but once someone died, no matter how confused and outrageous Jerry did before, he was not guilty of death, especially if he died so miserably, he was very favored by several elders within the family, and he couldn't help him speak because he did too wrong before, but now that he is so dead, these people have a reason to jump out, so in order to appease the emotions of Jerry's parents and these elders, Tang Ning must be blamed.
Second, that is, as Downing mentioned before, he is also a member of the family, even if Jerry's death has nothing to do with him, he can't run away from a crime of poor care, and his parents don't have anyone else in Tokyo, so who will go if he doesn't let him investigate this matter?
Third, the board of directors was a little surprised by the speed of Downing's development in Tokyo, and felt that this little guy was a little out of the family's control, so they took advantage of this incident to give him a good beating.
And the other telegram is a playboy from the DuPont family, Jimmy now has a lot of eyeliner in the Downing family, he naturally knew this kind of major event for the first time, he would never believe that Downing would kill Jerry, because Jerry has been almost rectified by him and Downing, and there is no need to kill him at this time, so his telegram is to tease Downing, and secondly, to tell him that the cause of Jerry's death is because a Japanese policeman sent the death investigation report to the Downing family board of directors this morning, And the telegram contains insinuations that Downing is the murderer of Jerry, so that Downing pays more attention to this policeman named Kido.
This incident made Tang Ning very annoyed, because isn't this the first thing the wicked person sued, he knew that he should report the matter to the board of directors as soon as possible, originally he wanted to investigate the matter clearly before reporting it, but now it's good, the other party has made himself very passive this time.
The things that annoyed Tang Ning didn't stop there, that night Mingzi cried and cried in front of him all night, asking him to help her brother avenge her, it turned out that Mingzi also learned about it through her parents, and under the prodding of her parents, she came to Tang Ning to cry with Tang Ning's favor. Although Tang Ning was very irritable about this, after all, Mingzi's brother suffered from the pond fish, and Mingzi was also a victim, so he could only comfort him with gentle words and accompany him for one night.
At this time, Matsumoto was triumphant, and with the feedback of information from various places, his prior calculations were confirmed, especially when he learned that Tang Ning broke several teacups after reading two telegrams from the United States. Although his inside line could not penetrate Tang Ning's study for the time being and check the specific content of the telegram, he also roughly guessed that it couldn't be a good thing after all, otherwise Tang Ning wouldn't be angry like that.
As everyone knows, in fact, this is the false information that Tangning sent to Matsumoto through Roskova, because this kind of information meets Matsumoto's expectations, so he is convinced, and from Tangning's point of view, it is easy for Matsumoto to be so angry that he has lost his calm and reason, but it is easy to sin Matsumoto in the next arrangement.
The two of them are intriguing, but the director of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, Kobayashi, is as big as a fight at the moment. The death of two Americans is already a big deal, and what is even more troublesome is that these two people are still very special, they are not only good friends of Mitsubishi Group, but also the same clan of the big boss of Tangning, and the relationship inside is even more complicated, making people confused, one side clearly stated that it must be used in the shortest possible time to thoroughly investigate the matter and catch the murderer; The other side kept hinting that this matter could be delayed, and the longer it was delayed, the better. But he can't afford to offend both ends, which makes Director Kobayashi in a dilemma!
