Chapter Seventy-Six: Difficult
"What did you say!"
The Son of Heaven couldn't help but raise his voice. "Mr. Satomi, he ran away?"
"Yes, on the way to the courthouse, it should have been a planned attack on the prisoner cart in order to escape. At present, the three jailers in the same car are not yet conscious, so the details are not clear."
Half of the report of the staff of the Holy Communion after the salutation is in the left ear and out of the right ear.
The Son of Heaven understood that his face was completely bloodless.
How so. The confiscation of the license from him for self-protection has become the fuse that made him get out.
So what should you do?
As the head of state of the Tokyo area and holding public office, the Son of Heaven cannot treat anyone differently because he is equally cared for.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that someone had put his hand on his shoulder and shook it vigorously.
"Lord Son of Heaven, please cheer up."
It's Kikunojo.
"Forgive the courtier, that guy will run away means he's too weak. As long as you do what you should do. β
The Son of Heaven woke up suddenly, and she closed her eyes, trying to calm herself.
"Have the police been dispatched?"
She tried to pretend to be calm and barely squeezed out this sentence, and the clerk straightened his back and replied in a dantian voice.
"Yes, it shouldn't be long before all of them are arrested in general."
"Soβ"
"--Can you leave this matter to your subordinates?"
"Who is it?"
Hearing someone interject from the side, the Son of Heaven looked up in surprise, only to hear the hard soles of his shoes tapping on the floor of the Holy House, and a man came over from the dark depths at the other end of the corridor.
Nearly sixty years old. The shaved head has a slanted scar, and the guide zhì is bare. His bags under his eyes were thick and droopy. Sharp eyes give off an aggressive glow.
"Cabinet Director."
The person who answered was Kikunojo, who was on the side.
The inspector of police came to the Holy Son of Heaven and bowed respectfully.
"I'm sorry I overheard the conversation just now. It's been a long time since I've come to say hello, Lord Son of Heaven. β
"It's been a long time. Cabinet Director. But why are you here? β
"I found it."
Ju Zhicheng, who answered in this way, glanced at the Holy Son of Heaven and continued: "After the guard officer who was supposed to protect His Majesty was disbanded due to the gaffe incident, only one person was left to protect His Majesty, so this situation is disturbing. Therefore, I would like to ask Your Majesty XiΓ to agree to borrow someone from the Police Protection Division to serve as a security officer. β
The cabinet added inwardly: "From what I said just now, although it is not entirely a dereliction of duty on the part of our police organization, please rest assured that I have the right person to quickly arrest the despicable fugitives." β
"Who's the right person?"
"It's a dog. Although the dog is not good, he still has some ability. It doesn't take long for a fugitive like that to be apprehended. β
I slammed the door shut, and the sweltering night breeze drifted into my nose with the smell of earth.
I don't know where it came from, but the scene of the van dumping was crowded with a large number of noisy reporters, and the flashing lights that lit up the night sky made people feel very dazzling.
Flashing police cars and ambulance lights can be seen all over the vicinity. A blockade was also put up.
Shigetoku Tadajima pushed away the approaching reporters and bent over the blockade when a familiar voice shouted, "Director." β
He glared at the source of the voice, and the detective, whose face was still very immature, covered his mouth with his hands as if he was speechless, and muttered, "Ah, I have been promoted." "This man is his subordinate Yoshikawa.
"Where's the scene?"
Tadajima ignored the other party's question, "Here." Yoshikawa led the chief to the van that was still burning.
Tadajima glanced at the inside of the van with four wheels facing the sky and a collapsed roof, stared at the brake marks on the mud and asked, "What was the situation?" β
"On the way back from escorting the prisoner, a little girl suddenly rushed to the front of the van in which the defendant was traveling. The driver had to hit the steering wheel hard to guide the van to overturn. The other two people in the car were taken to the hospital with broken bones. The driver, who had only minor injuries, is now conscious and is being questioned. β
"Little girl? Did the policeman's starter run to save him? β
"No, it doesn't look like it should be. It is said that Satomi Rentaro voluntarily resigned from his position as a police officer after meeting the Son of Heaven a few days ago. At the same time, the license is returned. IIS0's staff arrived at the Tiantong Civil Security Company.,Ready to forcibly take away the little girl who lost her partner.,But the chairman of the red-eyed demon school came forward.,Refuse to continue as the starter as a student of the school.γ This time. IIS0 is still arguing with the Red-Eyed Demon Academy over this. β
"In other words, the initiator of Satomi Rentaro has a full alibi?"
"Yes."
"So who the hell is that guy?" Tadajima sighed.
Tadajima fanned himself while sitting on the trunk of a nearby fallen tree and looking up at the stars in the sky:
"Hmph. I didn't expect that kid to really be sued. β
"Why does the chief of the unit still say such things? Does the Chief think that guy is innocent? β
"No, I just think that after all, he is the hero of the 'Third Kanto War', and the people above should be desperate to help him cover up his crimes."
"The Holy Son of Heaven, who has a habit of cleanliness, hates this kind of thing the most. That majesty must have been in a state of mind with tears and slashing horses. β
At this time, the two sides suddenly closed together, and Tadajima took out the cigarette case from his breast pocket, gently knocked out a cigarette, and lit the fire. Yoshikawa on the side muttered, "Is that guy really a murderer?" β
Tadajima inhaled the purple smoke into his chest hard, and then spit it out into the sky: "God knows." β
He glanced at the officers who were hurrying back and forth at the scene, then stood up, took a breath, and prepared to give instructions. But at this moment, out of nowhere, the word "Who is in charge here?" Questioning.
On the other side of the flashing warning lights, the forensic cordon, and the glare of a large number of reporters, a slender man walked straight to the place.
It was a man in a suit with a straight back and silver-rimmed glasses. Haven't seen this person before.
The man came to Tadajima and saluted: "I'm Atsuro in the counter, the police officer of the main hall. Are you the site leader? β
Hearing that the other party's class was relatively high, Tadajima hurriedly threw away the cigarette and folded his legs in return.
"The subordinate is the Tadajima Motoku Police Department of the Ogada Police Station. That's right, I'm the site leader. β
Because he doesn't pay attention to health, Tadajima, who looks round when his body develops horizontally, salutes face-to-face with tall and slender men, and it looks like a spoof illustration of low-level fun. Let the former feel inferiority inexplicably.
"Another guy who passed the guΓ² exam." Yoshikawa in the back muttered a little disdainfully, and Tadajima pushed him with his elbow a few times to shut up.
"I'm sorry, but I'm in charge of the next search in this case."
"This is an incident that took place under my jurisdiction. Besides, why should the police come to the messy crime scene in person? It is enough for the search operation to be handed over to us. β
Although the attitude seems to be very respectful, there is still a sense of doubt in the conversation.
However, the fair-skinned man pushed the frame with his middle finger and said indifferently, "Tadajima Police Department, I'm sorry I can't do that." The situation is much stricter than you think. In this case, it has been decided to establish a Special Investigation Headquarters. The headquarters is located at the Metropolitan Police Department instead of the Ogada Police Station and is under the personal command of the Governor. From now on, the people of the Ota Department will obey our commands. β
Tadajima was surprised: "Even the director was dispatched? β
The cabinet shrugged and responded, "Hmm." Because it was a gaffe for all the police. It is hoped that this case will be prosecuted as soon as possible. β
"Damn!"
Something must have happened. Tadajima couldn't help but want to scream. The Metropolitan Police Department will only set up a special investigation when it encounters a major incident. It's definitely not a good thing to mobilize all the fugitives just for the sake of one fugitive.
"Police Department, how long has the defendant been on the run?"
"It was about an hour ago."
"So I shouldn't have run far."
The frames between the cabinets are shiny.
"Police, can you tell me about Satomi Rentaro? I read the basics on the way over. He is 174 centimeters tall and weighs 62 kilograms. It seems to be the first stage of the fist technique of Tiantong Flow. But that's not what I want to know. The police department seems to be an old acquaintance with the defendant, but from your point of view, what kind of character is that Satomi Rentaro? β
"It looks casual, but it's very strong. Policeman, please forgive my subordinates. You're not going to catch that guy. β
The corners of the cabinet with a surprised expression rose slightly:
"Oh, it seems that the police department still has a high opinion of him."
Tadajima's back felt chills for some reason.
The cabinet clapped its hands, and the investigators at the scene paid attention.
"Well, guys, in order not to let the fugitives run away. We need to set up checkpoints within a radius of 25 kilometres. The fugitive is named Ryotaro Satomi. He is a medium-sized male who is a student and a former promoter of a civilian security company. The photos will be distributed later. I repeat - the fugitive is Satomi Rentaro. β
Let's get to workβand after another high-five, the searcher, who was supposed to be his subordinate, shrewdly dispersed.
Tadajima asked cautiously behind the cabinet: "So what are you going to do next?" β
"Satomi Rentaro's connections are not that wide. It's easy to imagine the first person he'll turn to. After all, I know that person, too. Let me talk to each other. The police department is reassured. Your predictions will be missed. This matter can be resolved tonight. β
After escaping, Rentaro was indeed the first to think of asking Kigen for help, however, Yang Xi's reminders kept echoing in his mind. Make him hesitate.
Running away is easy to say, but without anyone's help, it is really difficult to carry it out on your own.
At least, as long as Rentaro is still in the Tokyo area, it will be almost impossible to move an inch.
He had to face not only a lack of food, but also a place to live. Especially it didn't take long for the streets and alleys to be plastered with wanted notices with his photo, and even on the news. Not if you don't have someone to help!
Even though there was a danger in his life, Rentaro made a decision. (To be continued......)
