You were asked to keep a low profile and lie low, so you became the chief of a special high-tech dep

Ichiro Sato couldn't help but complain in his heart. He was a little anxious because the interrogation of Jiang Yifan was obviously stuck here. It was meaningless to continue the interrogation. Besides, there were more than a dozen people waiting to be checked and interrogated.

So, Sato Ichiro stood up, looked at Jiang Yifan and said:

"I will trust you for now. Once I review it, I will come back and talk to you in depth."

After Sato Ichiro finished speaking, he turned to look at Kuiike Rikuto and ordered: "Captain Kuiike! You stay here and continue to talk slowly with Shimabashi Shinichi!"

In fact, everyone understood what that meant. They were just afraid that Jiang Yifan would take the opportunity to escape.

"Hayi!"

After hearing this, Jiang Yifan and Kuiichi Rikuto stood up and bowed to Sato Ichiro in reply.

Then, Ichiro Sato and Daiki Kumagawa left the office.

"Chief of Staff Sakata! I'm sorry! I'm also acting on the orders of General Kimura. I hope Chief of Staff Sakata will forgive me!"

Ichiro Sato and Daiki Kumagawa walked into Chief of Staff Sakata's office, sat down opposite Chief of Staff Sakata, looked at Chief of Staff Sakata and spoke politely.

"Commander Sato, please don't be polite. This is a business matter and I must obey your review."

Chief of Staff Sakata was very cooperative and described in detail the entire situation after General Kimura announced the order. Finally, he said with certainty:

"I didn't even leave the Expeditionary Force Headquarters building. General Kimura, Secretary Honda Shigemune, and the guards at the headquarters entrance can all testify to this."

After listening to Chief of Staff Sakata's powerful report, it can be said that it was flawless without any loopholes.

Sato Ichiro looked at Chief of Staff Sakata and asked in embarrassment:

"Excuse me, Chief of Staff Sakata! Who do you think is the most suspicious person in our expeditionary force headquarters?"

Upon hearing this, Chief of Staff Sakata immediately shook his head like a rattle, looked at Sato Ichiro and replied:

"Commander Sato Ichiro! This is not something you can just speculate about. Let's base it on facts!"

Sato Ichiro saw this scene and answered tactfully:

"Then I won't bother Chief of Staff Sakata anymore. You're busy, I'll look somewhere else."

So, Chief of Staff Sakata sent Ichiro Sato out of the office.

Immediately afterwards, Ichiro Sato and Daiki Kumagawa walked into Honda Shigehiro's office and chatted for a while. He still did not step out of the expeditionary force headquarters office building alone.

The only difference was that he was ordered by General Kimura to go to Laoliu Delicatessen with Jiang Yifan, and Captain Miyazaki Longjing and several others followed him along the way.

Jiang Yifan also reported this truthfully, and they were completely consistent with each other, without any discrepancy.

Ichiro Sato also gained nothing and returned empty-handed.

Next are some staff officers. There is even less reason to be suspicious about them. They all hide in an office and never leave the office building except for eating, sleeping and going to the toilet. And basically, there are witnesses to prove their guilt.

This forced Sato Ichiro to once again focus all his attention on Jiang Yifan.

He had a premonition that this time, even if Shinichi Shimahashi had wings, he would not be able to escape this disaster.

So, Ichiro Sato went to Jiang Yifan's office again, and it happened that Takao Osawa and Muye Fujii also came back from investigating.

The two of them recounted the entire investigation in the corridor. Although everything was as Jiang Yifan had said, Sato Ichiro was still confident in his own judgment - Shimabashi Shinichi must be the lighter!

So, Ichiro Sato asked Takao Osawa and Muye Fujii to go back to Jiang Yifan's office first, and he and Daiki Kumakawa went straight to General Kimura's office.

"Why are you here again?" General Kimura looked at Sato Ichiro and Kumagawa Daiki and asked in surprise.

"Report to General Kimura! We have basically investigated and ruled out other suspects. Now only the whereabouts of Shimahashi Shinichi remain a mystery. We have also investigated what he said and found it to be completely true. The only thing missing is that there is no witness to testify."

Ichiro Sato looked at General Kimura and reported truthfully.

"So what are you going to do?" General Kimura's face immediately became serious, and he asked Sato Ichiro and Kumagawa Daiki.

Sato Ichiro looked at General Kimura and said frankly:

"Excuse me for being blunt, but there is only one way now, but it may not necessarily get the desired result, and that is to force a confession through hard work. Otherwise, it is simply impossible to obtain evidence that Shimahashi Shinichi is the traitor or the lighter in a short period of time.

I mean, either give it a try, after all, we have suspected him for so many days, or let him go, think long and hard, and continue looking for evidence. "

After hearing this, Daiki Kumagawa felt a chill down his spine. It seemed that Ichiro Sato wanted to identify Shinichi Shimahashi as the lighter and he couldn't wait any longer.

So, the two of them shifted their gaze to General Kimura's face again.

General Kimura was silent for a long time and did not dare to make a decision easily. Instead, he handed the telegram from the military headquarters to Sato Ichiro.

After Sato Ichiro took the telegram and read it, he asked Kumagawa Daiki to read it again.

Then he handed it to General Kimura.

"After reading this telegram, do you still insist on torturing Shimahashi Shinichi?"

General Kimura looked at Sato Ichiro and Kumagawa Daiki and asked again.

"Report to General Kimura! I am just giving you another suggestion. For now, only Shimahashi Shinichi is the most suspicious. If we want to identify him, we can only use severe torture to get the result we want. Only then will Shimahashi Shinichi be able to confess. Otherwise, the investigation can no longer proceed. Please make the decision, General Kimura!"

After reading the telegram, Ichiro Sato knew that the person behind this was Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Yamato Hosaki, who was protecting Shinichi Shimahashi.

Faced with this behemoth, he could only throw this hot potato to General Kimura again.

This is not an easy job. If things go wrong, I might fall down before Shinichi Shimabashi does.

The key is that there is no real evidence.

"What do you think? Chief!"

When General Kimura heard that Sato Ichiro had thrown this hot potato back to him again, he couldn't help but look at Kumagawa Daiki with some disappointment and asked.

"Reporting to General Kimura! I think we should go and hear what Shimahashi Shinichi thinks about this matter. Maybe he can give us a surprise!"

Daiki Kumagawa looked at General Kimura and told the truth.

"surprise?"

After hearing what Daiki Kumagawa said, General Kimura and Ichiro Sato looked at Daiki Kumagawa at the same time and asked curiously.
