Chapter Eighty-Nine: Authority
Maybe it's because the big enemy is gone, maybe it's because Yuichi Kudo is still young after all, and his attitude is good, so the faces of the people on the field are a lot better.
Hearing Yuichi Kudo say this, someone couldn't help frowning and speaking.
"Sorry for the interruption, Kudo-kun, thanks to you this time..."
"But, this kind of thing, are you going to make a decision here?"
"Besides... The person you want to talk about is probably the director of Kudo Police, right? ”
"You have to understand that there is no precedent for Director Kudo to already take charge of the Metropolitan Police Department, and then serve as the deputy head of the National Police Agency."
The person who spoke spoke in a calm tone, and he was also well-behaved, and his wording was rigorous, and he didn't offend anyone to the house, and there was obviously no hostility, but he didn't want to see the birth of a situation where the Kudo family was dominant.
Yuichi Kudo is also smiling.
"Mitsui-san, don't be impatient, of course it's not my father, my father often tells me that I'm old and can't do anything, just the Metropolitan Police Department is enough for him to be busy, and if he takes over the affairs of the Police Department, won't he be tired to death?"
"As a son, I have to have a little filial piety, so I can share it for him."
Hearing this, the uproar below was even louder.
The middle-aged police officer known as Mitsui was stunned for a moment, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
Since he had already spoken, he was not only submissive, but said bluntly: "Listen to Kudo-kun... Are you going to take the position left by Yamamoto? ”
“...”
"Kudo-kun, it's not that I'm ungrateful, I just got saved by you, and I went against you, this... It's not in accordance with the rules. ”
"Your age, your qualifications... Even the academic qualifications are too bad. ”
"If you were in this position in ten years' time, I would never say anything about it, and now... Some..."
He didn't say the rest, but it was self-evident.
Yuichi Kudo didn't look impatient to be refuted, just continued to shake his head.
"Seniors, I have been very good in the Collectibles Association, and I have no idea of changing careers for the time being, I am a teenager, and it is impossible for me to sit in such a high position, I still have this self-knowledge."
"I just want to be fair."
"I have a proposal for the position of deputy director of the National Police Agency - how about letting Ishida-senpai take the position?"
Soon, everyone's eyes were on a middle-aged man sitting in the front row, wearing a suit and leather shoes, with gray hair and a face that did not look old.
Just when Yamamoto was fierce, he was born blatantly and angrily reprimanded him, not to mention anything else, his courage was first-class.
This Ishida, in the Yamamoto faction, is regarded as Yamamoto's deputy, and the General Affairs Department and the Police Department are basically his Yiyantang, and they are also considered to be high-ranking and powerful, but the restriction of his background makes him only subordinate to others, although he is considered a Yamamoto faction, but the relationship with Yamamoto Xiong is not so harmonious.
Now he is the head of the Ministry of General Affairs, and he is also counted below one person and above 10,000 people in the National Police Agency, but it is difficult to go any further.
He didn't expect that this good thing would come to him.
Don't look at it as just a verbal statement, if the young master of the Kudo family said this, coupled with his accumulation of connections, in the case of Yamamoto Yu's fall, this would not be much different from the holy decree.
No matter in that department, there are only a few people at the pinnacle of power.
Ishida lowered his head and didn't speak, apparently acquiescing.
Kudo Yuichi smiled shallowly, and the conversation changed.
"The rank or something, the people present are not laymen, that doesn't matter."
"Actually, the position is not important, the situation in Japan is like this now, and what you say has to be effective, depending on the party and the chaebol behind it."
"Why is Yamamoto so domineering? He has the support of the MZ Party behind him, and the Yamamoto family has been the eagle dog of the MZ Party for generations, and this family is a nail in the police system of the MZ Party. ”
"As for how much chaebol support there is behind the MZ Party, it's complicated, and it's not something I can speculate."
"So, there's one thing I can be sure of."
"The deputy director of the National Police Agency, the rank of police inspector, in the eyes of the big men of the MZ Party, is not worth mentioning."
"But the position of the member of the National Public Security Commission is different."
"This is an important position to participate in the cabinet's deliberations, it can vote, it represents [the right to speak], and it is absolutely impossible for outsiders to interfere."
"So... In this position, Ishida's seniors are a little humble, right? ”
Hearing this, Ishida raised his eyes slightly, his eyes were deep, and he didn't have much malice, after all, he had just made a big bargain, and what Yuichi Kudo said was the truth, he had nothing to refute.
"Whatever Master Kudo wants to say, just say it."
"Don't worry, I'm not someone who can't judge the situation, and I'm not an insatiable person."
"I'm well aware of my abilities and won't do stupid things."
"But..."
"With all due respect, Master Kudo, you Kudo family... It's very close to the new chaebol, and it's not the same as the MZ Party, so if you want to get your hands on this seat, I'm afraid it's going to be difficult..."
These words are not leaky, and there is a faint taste of thinking about Kudo Yuichi, which is worthy of the speech of a politician.
Yuichi Kudo obviously didn't appreciate it, just shook his head slightly.
"Of course, I know."
"The Kudo family didn't want to occupy this position either."
"There are only five positions in the National Public Security Commission."
"My father has already occupied a pit, and if I occupy another one, there is absolutely no possibility of success."
Speaking of which, in fact, it is necessary to mention the so-called State Public Safety Commission.
In a sense, it can be equated with the National Police Agency because it has the functions of governing the National Police Agency.
Originally established to protect against political pressure and to ensure the neutrality of the police system, the committee is responsible for the administration of the National Police Agency and has the power to appoint or dismiss senior officers.
However, by now, this committee has long been infiltrated by all parties, and the so-called guarantee of neutrality is a big joke.
These are all tools for politicians to seize power.
But the importance of this seat really does not need to be mentioned, "the right to appoint or dismiss senior police officers" is already a great right, and it is subordinate to the Cabinet Office, and its status is transcendent.
Therefore, Ishida is also confused.
Yuichi Kudo didn't let him wait too long, he couldn't help but laugh a few times, took a few steps back, slapped the table, and lowered his voice.
"It's your turn, my... Friend. ”
"We've got it done... Is that right? ”
The man in a suit sitting in the middle of the small group of the Kudo family suddenly raised his head and showed a somewhat haggard face.
He looked at the remains of the corpse in the center of the room with complicated eyes, looked at Yuichi Kudo again, nodded slowly, and stood up, allowing almost everyone to see his face.
Some faux puffs of exclamation gradually sounded, and Yuichi Kudo returned to the podium with some pride, and his tone became hurried.
"This incident was committed by Yamamoto Xiong alone, and it has nothing to do with the Yamamoto family, the National Police Agency, and of course, it has nothing to do with this Yamamoto Ryosuke."
"Thanks to Young Master Yamamoto contacting me in time, killing my relatives in righteousness, and reporting Yamamoto's madness, I was able to prepare early and destroy this conspiracy."
"That's a big deal!"
"Young Master Yamamoto's age, education, and qualifications, I don't need to say more, right?"
"And... His surname is Yamamoto! ”
"I propose that Ryosuke Yamamoto take over the seat of Yamamoto as a member of the National Public Security Commission, and I will immediately report it to the chairman of the committee, and before that, I will seek everyone's consent."
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think?"
When Yuichi Kudo said this, he actually only looked at the opinions of two people.
One is Ishida, and the other is Hidezo Otomo.
One is the core figure of the Yamamoto faction that should not be underestimated, and the other is the current top governor of the National Police Agency, although he has no real power.
Otomo Hidezhong nodded indifferently, didn't open his eyes, and said casually: "I have no opinion, Kudo-kun just decides." ”
A look of no quarrel with the world.
Ishida's reaction was a little bigger, his complexion changed several times, and he weighed the pros and cons in his mind for a long time, and finally nodded reluctantly with a bitter face, frowning.
He can't help it, the MZ party will never give up a well-boiled eagle dog to use him, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to be a dog.
It's hard to say, but that's the truth.
In Japan, the culture of retainers is deeply ingrained, and a single surname can decide many issues.
At this point, Yuichi Kudo breathed a sigh of relief.
Not to mention anything else, his plan has succeeded today.
From today onwards, the authority of the Japanese police system is in the hands of the Kudo family!
