Chapter 96: Protecting Shigehiko Tunkou

While Higashino Ning was washing up, Huihara Ai also prepared breakfast.

After a quick meal, I went out to work.

It's cloudy today.

But this does not affect Dong Ye Ning's sunny heart.

When he arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department, he went straight to Megure Jusan and spoke.

"Inspector, did you know that the next door is investigating Councillor Tunkou?"

Megure Jusan was still yawning. He wiped his tears and said, "Well, this is a huge bribe. Maybe the House of Representatives will be reshuffled this time."

Dong Ye Ning naturally pulled over a chair and said, "Inspector, there is a group of people who want to get rid of Councillor Tunkou. I have requested that the First Investigation Division intervene in the investigation and protect him."

This news was a bit too loud in the early morning.

Megure Jusan was stunned for a moment and his eyes widened, "Where did you get this information? Is it true?!"

At this time, the office door was pushed open again.

Shiratori Renzaburo, holding a stack of documents in his hand, patiently closed the door and lowered his voice, "Yesterday, Higashino-kun had already asked me to confirm the investigation."

He placed the document on the table. "I talked to Inspector Morishima of the Investigation Section 2. Councillor Tunkouchi is indeed hiding something other than bribery. He is acting quite frightened and there is a possibility that he is being threatened."

As he spoke, he pulled over another chair and sat down. "Then I did a brief investigation on my own. The surveillance cameras near Councillor Tunkou's home captured several suspicious persons lurking and monitoring."

Dong Ye Ning had already discussed these matters with Shiratori Renzaburo on his way to work.

Dong Ye Ning was quite surprised when he heard the news at first, but then he felt that it was reasonable.

After all, Shigehiko Tsuguchi is a human being. He has something hidden in his heart and is at risk of death. It is basically impossible for him not to be discovered when facing police investigation.

As for those suspicious persons captured by surveillance cameras, it is even more reasonable.

The people who do these things cannot be codenamed members like Gin, and if they lack the ability, they will naturally leave traces.

This would be fine if it happened in an ordinary case, but this time the police's target of investigation was Tunkou Shigehiko, so not only did they conduct a thorough and intensive investigation, they also compared the investigation results repeatedly based on the principle of prudence.

This also shows that the simple words that Shiratori Renzaburo gave him yesterday afternoon were not made up out of thin air but were targeted.

The police are garbage in the setting, but we still can't completely underestimate them.

...

After hearing what Shiratori Renzaburo said, Megure Jusan began to think with a serious expression.

Soon, he took the documents and flipped through them. "Since even you, Brother Bai Niao, say so, it seems that this matter does need to be taken seriously."

"Well, I'll go report this matter now and then talk to Inspector Morishima."

Megure Jusan looked at Tono Ning, "Brother Tono, there aren't many cases recently, so we have enough manpower."

"If we really need to intervene in the protection investigation of Councillor Tunkou later, then you can come with me. The subsequent continuous protection will be left to you and Brother Gaomu."

Dong Ye Ning nodded, "Okay, no problem."

Things were arranged quickly. Megure Jusan was always decisive in his work, so he went out directly to find his superior.

Dong Ye Ning and Shiratori Renzaburo looked at each other and then parted ways.

From then on, apart from private meetings, the two of them relied more on tacit cooperation, and it would be best if there was no mobile phone communication.

What Tono Ning didn't expect was that Takagi Wataru was also arranged to be included.

Logically speaking, in order to facilitate police investigations, Megure Jusan should have kept a younger brother by his side as a backup, and Takagi Shigeru has been working with him for many years, so Takagi Shigeru should be the best candidate.

But now Megure Juzo plans to let Takagi Wataru join him in the action of protecting Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi.

"Maybe he wants Sheshe to improve with me. It's good to show up more in such high-level activities."

But... there are dangers everywhere.

From the pure nature of the situation, the risks of this operation far outweigh the benefits.

Without a system and without reaching an agreement with Shiratori Renzaburo, it would be impossible for Takagi Shigeru to achieve promotion through this action.

Dong Ye Ning still wanted to wait until he climbed up before helping his brother.

Unfortunately, he doesn't even have the right to make suggestions on personnel arrangements, which is really helpless.

I went back to my workstation and waited for almost two hours. Near noon, Megure Juzo finally came with news.

"Brother Dongye, I will lead a team to the home of Councillor Tunkou this afternoon. Starting tonight, the actual responsibility for the security work will be handed over to you. Can you accept this?"

Dong Ye Ning naturally would not refuse and nodded firmly.

Megure Jusan showed a relieved smile on his face and lowered his voice to the lowest level, "Very good, I can't completely leave my post here either."

"If things get out of hand, remember not to rush in too aggressively. Protecting yourself is the most important thing. The Investigation Division cannot afford to lose an excellent officer like you."

"As for Congressman Tunkou... he can die if he wants. More than 90% of the members of the House of Representatives are not good people anyway."

Dong Ye Ning said that the boss saw things clearly.

But Tsunoguchi Shigehiko really cannot die, as my promotion depends entirely on him.

Dong Ye Ning nodded and became curious, "What about Gao Mu?"

Megure Jusan coughed twice and said, "Let's follow the original arrangement. You will be the main one and he will be the auxiliary one."

"I always feel that Brother Gao Mu is not as reliable as you. If something goes wrong, he might just rush in headfirst. You should keep an eye on him."

Ok?

If it weren't for the following sentence, Higashino Ning would have thought that Megure Juzo had also heard the news and knew that he was going to be promoted while Takagi Wataru had no hope of promotion.

But now it seems...Megure Jusan doesn't know anything at all.

"Oh... So Inspector Morishima is also from the Shiratori family?"

"And the day before yesterday when he told me that I was being transferred to Investigation Section 2, was he hinting that I should seize the opportunity and get on board?"

Damn...it turns out that no one who plays politics is a simple guy.

Still need to hone...

He hadn't tasted it until now.

After Megure Juzo left, Higashino Ning took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Haibara Ai.

[I have a mission today and in the next week so I can't go home. You have to behave yourself at home. If you are afraid of living there, stay at the doctor's house for a few days.]

At this time, Haibara Ai should be in class.

Speaking of which, today is Friday again, and Haibara Ai will have a day off after this class.

pity.

Being a policeman means you won't be able to spend much time with your family.

Now Megure Jusan doesn't bet with him anymore, so he can't get any vacation.

correct!

He quickly grabbed his phone and sent another text message.

[I think I will be absent from this garden party, sorry. I will ask for leave for you after the mission is over and take you out to play.]

Half an hour later, the little Lolita's reply text message came.

[Okay, I'll wait for you. Remember to take care of your tummy while you're on a mission outside.]

Huh~~

Overlapping words, disgusting.
