Detective Conan: Knifeman? I'm a good citizen of Beihua

Today is the first day of registration.

Jinpei Matsuda, who is usually lazy, got up early for a rare occasion and went to the Metropolitan Police Department to report with Kenji Hagiwara.

Investigation Section 2 was right next to Investigation Section 1. When Hagiwara Kenji arrived, he smiled and waved to Matsuda Jinpei, "Little Jinpei, be friendly and get along well with everyone~"

Matsuda Jinpei was still wearing his Bking sunglasses, his arms folded, his posture relaxed: "Don't worry, Hagi."

The two of them went to their future office areas.

Even at this early hour, there were already people working in the office area.

Several police officers with dark circles under their eyes sat at their desks, smoking cigarettes and drinking strong tea, completely absorbed in their own cases, paying no attention to Matsuda Jinpei. Several other unshaven officers, covered with their coats, hunched over their desks, eyes closed, resting, unfazed by the intense discussions going on nearby.

The police officers were walking back and forth in a hurry, and the entire office area was in a state of high-intensity work.

This is the search class, a place that is on the front line and where the lights never go out.

There are too many criminals in this world, and it is all thanks to them that we are able to guard this place, working tirelessly and moving forward courageously.

Jinpei Matsuda took a deep breath.

Such a working environment actually aroused his fighting spirit.

He stepped into the office area and looked around at the police officers, trying to find someone with whom he could connect with the work.

Because he had worked in the Investigation Division for some time before, he had come into contact with several police officers, but when he looked around today, he didn't see any familiar people.

But that's normal.

Jinpei Matsuda casually walked around the office area, intending to get to know the situation there first before waiting for Megure Juzo and the others to arrive.

In the corner, two people, out of tune with the busy atmosphere, were chatting happily.

"Tsuneda-senpai is so unlucky. Just because he didn't help Megure Jusan handle that case, he even lost his job. It's too tragic."

"Who says not? I thought Megure Jusan was quite upright, but I didn't expect that when something went wrong, it was his subordinates who took the blame."

"Originally, Megure Jusan wanted to do a favor, but in the end, Senior Tokita was just enforcing the law impartially and failed to help Megure Jusan's friend handle the case. Now, Megure Jusan is holding a grudge against him. Sigh—"

"And I heard that the case is related to Shirakawa Akira, the guy we scolded when we were in the police academy."

"Ah, it's him? Why is Megure Jusan still favoring such a guy..."

"I'm hooking up with Detective Mori now. Doesn't Megure Jusan still have to look at Detective Mori's mood? Now I'm different——"

The police officer was chatting when a pair of strong hands suddenly appeared, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up from his seat.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

The police officer was shocked when he saw the stern face behind the sunglasses. He then pulled the man's sleeve and shouted, "Who are you? Who allowed you to run wild in the search section? Let go!"

Matsuda Jinpei's eyes were icy, with a sarcastic smile on his lips: "What? You have nothing to do so early in the morning, so you join others in spreading rumors? Does Officer Megure know that you are talking about him like this?"

The police officer was stunned, and immediately realized that his words had been heard by the other party. His face turned pale, but thinking about these things, he became confident and said: "I was just casually talking to my colleagues. We all know what the situation is. It's none of your business!"

Jinpei Matsuda sneered endlessly.

He just learned the whole story from Shirakawa Akane yesterday. He was already furious about Tokita Ryozo's shameless behavior. Now, when he heard this idiot distorting the truth, Matsuda Jinpei's fists suddenly stiffened.

"Will you bark again?"

"none of your business!"

The fist came straight at the police officer with the wind, but ultimately did not land on the police officer's face.

The police officer didn't expect the other party to be so tough, and he was so scared that he closed his eyes.

Jinpei Matsuda turned his head and saw the serious face of Ko Ida.

Date Ko pulled the arm that Matsuda Jinpei was punching and said in a steady voice, "Matsuda, calm down for a moment. What's going on? Explain it clearly first, and don't jump into action."

Other police officers who heard the noise also gathered around and looked at the situation in surprise.

Jinpei Matsuda shook his arms and slowly lowered his fists.

In fact, he didn't intend to really punch the other person in the face, he just wanted to scare him.

Such a guy doesn't know how to work seriously. He only knows how to gossip about his boss. He has no courage at all when encountering something. When a fist is handed to his face, he dare not even fart.

He, Jinpei Matsuda, didn't even bother to bully such a wimp.

The police officer casually let go of the collar and fell heavily back to his seat.

Matsuda Jinpei took off his sunglasses, looked at the people around him with a cold gaze, and said in a chilling voice, "Where's Inspector Megure?"

—

After a busy night, Megure Juzo returned to the Metropolitan Police Department tiredly.

Then he realized that the sky had fallen.

"What? Who told you that?"

Megure Juzo grabbed the police officer's collar and asked loudly in disbelief.

The police officer's legs went weak under Megure Jusan's glare. His eyes wandered and he whispered, "I'm just telling the truth—"

"Can you say that again?"

Megure Jusan felt that if he wasn't usually so easygoing and fat, he might have been so angry that he almost fainted, so he rolled up his sleeves.

Takagi Wataru awkwardly comforted Megure Jusan: "Inspector Megure, calm down for a moment——"

Seeing the crowd standing around watching, the police officer curled his lips. Unsure where he got the courage from, he said loudly, "That's right. The last case clearly had nothing to do with Senior Changtian, but you forced him to resign. Who in our Investigation Section doesn't know about this?"

He looked around and pointed at a few people at random - "Weren't you talking about this a few days ago? Why don't you stand up and speak out now?"

Because the incident was rather ugly, the surrounding police officers did not disperse, but stopped to watch. Now, when the police pointed at them, several people avoided looking and quietly lowered their heads without saying a word.

Megure Jusan also looked over and met those evasive gazes.

Mu Mu Thirteen: "..."

Megure Jusan was struck by lightning.

Ryozo Tsuneta did resign on his own initiative.

Because of Ryozo Tokita's negligence, a mentally ill person stabbed people indiscriminately. This incident was naturally considered an internal scandal, so after Megure Juzo reported it, the higher-ups decisively fired Ryozo Tokita.

After learning about this, Ryozo Tokita pleaded with Juzo Megure, hoping that he could save some face and resign on his own initiative.

Megure Juzo agreed because the other party had followed him for many years and let Tokuda Ryozo go on his own without making his affairs public.

What he never expected was that it was because of his kindness that he saved Tsuneta Ryozo's face, allowing Tsuneta Ryozo to throw dirty water on him before leaving and whitewash his mistakes.

The police officers who had a good relationship with Ryozo Tsuneta were all brainwashed by him, and had a strong opinion of Juzo Megure, and secretly spread the "truth" of the matter to other colleagues.

Before this, Megure Juzo had been completely unaware of this.

If Matsuda Jinpei hadn't exposed this matter now, the rumor might have spread for a long time before it reached Megure Juzo's ears.

By that time, although Megure Jusan would be able to clarify immediately, he would still be affected.

Even so, Megure Jusan still felt a chill in his heart.

Although Tokita Ryozo's behavior was shameful, his lies were actually able to deceive some people, which was something Megure Jusan could never have imagined.

He has been in the Metropolitan Police Department for many years. Don’t they know what kind of person he is?

When did their interior become like this?
