Conan's First Love is a Profiler

Chapter 233: Falling into Crisis (Return)

"You must not rush in. Try to negotiate with the prisoner."

"The prisoner has no intention of negotiating. He has reached his limit. In order to save the hostages, we have no choice but to rush in."

"Then let SIT attack," said Kanbe Yuya, "SIT has also been trained."

"But the SAT has already been arranged. Now switching to the SIT, there is no time to prepare."

Kobe Yuya understood what she meant, "Are you planning on taking the SAT?"

After hesitating for a moment, Qinghai Chuantang finally made the final decision: "Yes."

The other party was also silent for a while.

"As the head of the command headquarters, I think the SIT should go. But if you insist on letting the SAT rush in, then I will not interfere with your judgment."

After saying that, the other party hung up the phone again.

Qing Hai Chuantang came to the monitor and said into the microphone: "From now on, the command of the scene will be handed over from SIT to SAT."

Time passes minute by minute
"boom--"

There was another gunshot.

This is the fourth time the other party has fired a bullet.

"Captain Fenggu, I'm Qing Haichuan."

She used the microphone to convey the order: "Permission to attack and shoot."

"attack--"

The other party almost immediately issued orders to the SAT members of his own team.

At this moment, everyone's hearts seemed to be lifted up in an instant.

Every minute and every second seems to pass like a year.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, Fenggu's voice was heard again.

"Success. Two hostages, safe and sound."

Everyone present couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If the operation is successful, the front-line headquarters should naturally be disbanded.

Members of SAT and SIT will also leave.

Qinghai Chuantang stood in the corridor, looking at the parking lot outside the window through the glass on the second floor.

At this time, there was the sound of someone running.

"Well done, thank you for your hard work."

She turned and looked at Fenggu and said sincerely.

However, the other party lowered his head and did not answer.

As a profiler, I naturally have some knowledge of psychology.

"what happened?"

"It's a pity. The prisoner has just been confirmed dead."

This is not news to be celebrated.

With today's media, anything black can be turned into white.

If this information is used by someone with ulterior motives, both she and Kobe Yuya will be implicated!

After coming outdoors.

The prisoner's body had been put into a bag and carried onto the ambulance on a stretcher.

"Director!"

Nishigami Chengyi seemed to have discovered something.

He ran towards Qinghai Chuantang with a gun.

"Look at this."

After that, he removed the magazine, showed it and said, "There are no bullets in the prisoner's gun."

Blank bullet?

"what happened?"

"The criminal used up all the bullets." Xi Shangcheng said, "That means there were only four bullets in the gun at the beginning."

if it is like this.
The news from the Metropolitan Police Department that there were more than ten bullets was false information!
In other words, they shot and killed unarmed prisoners.

"Is the gun blank?"

After arriving at the rooftop of the police station and listening to Qinghai Chuantang's narration, Kobe Yuya was very surprised.

"Yes."

Qinghai Chuantang nodded, "The prisoner has used up all the bullets, there is not a single one left in the gun."

"what happened?"

He looked puzzled, "I heard the prisoner still had more than ten bullets."

"That intelligence was wrong."

“Oops, that’s a problem.”

Logically speaking, now that the hostages are safe, they should assume their due responsibilities as police officers.

Kobe Yuya put his hands in his trouser pockets, looked into the distance and said: "But no police officer sacrificed his life for this. If the police shot an unarmed criminal, it would cause a commotion in the media."

"You mean, it would be nice if someone had to sacrifice themselves?"

"I didn't say that," Kanbe Yuya glanced at her, "I was just thinking about public opinion."

After saying that, he raised his hand and glanced at his watch, then continued, "Anyway, let's put tonight's press conference on hold for now."

After hearing this, Qinghai Chuantang took a step forward and kept parallel with it.

"You want me to hide the truth?"

"It will take another thirty minutes. It's better not to tell anyone before the release deadline."

Kobe Yuya turned around and looked at her and said, "Now, we should think about countermeasures. Our enemies are not just the media."

After returning to the director's office, Kobe Yuya ordered the door to be closed with a serious look on his face.

"I have something to tell you."

He turned his back to the others and said, "There are no bullets in the gun held by the prisoner."

Naoji Koshiyama was a little confused, "But the report from the Investigation Section 1 said that there were ten bullets in the criminal's gun."

"The information is wrong."

Kobe Yuya turned around and looked at them: "The criminal's gun only had four bullets from the beginning."

Everyone looked surprised.

"In short, don't let the media know about this. Keep it a secret until the press conference at nine o'clock tomorrow. Do you understand?"

Day two.

"Director, this is bad!"

Early in the morning, Kitai Nosuke hurried into the director's office with a newspaper.

"what happened?"

"It's reported in the newspapers every morning!"

As he said this, he quickly handed the newspaper to the other party.

Then he picked up the remote control on the coffee table and turned on the TV, which was playing the news.

"During the man's hijacking, the police forcefully attacked and shot the prisoner, whose gun had no bullets."

The current situation is very bad.

Just then, Qinghai Chuantang's cell phone rang.

"I'm Qing Haichuan."

"How did it leak?"

I could clearly hear the other party slamming the newspaper on the table.

"In the newspapers every morning?"

"nonsense!"

“I don’t know where it was leaked from.”

Kobe Yuya was a little anxious, "I don't know where it was leaked from, there's nothing we can do!"

"It has already been reported, so there is nothing we can do about it."

The question now is how to deal with the subsequent remarks and the media's rush to report them.

“The police department has started to take action.”

After sitting down, Kanbe Yuya said.

"The Inspector?"

"Yes."

Kobe Yuya said: "Begin to investigate whether shooting unarmed criminals is appropriate. You and I are both subject to supervision."

She was convinced that it was right to take the SAT.

But it is also true that an unarmed prisoner was shot and killed.

Being held accountable is certain.

"I will take full responsibility."

Qinghai Chuantang said so.

At the press conference at nine o'clock -

"The report said the criminal's pistol was empty. In fact, the suspect had four bullets. In order to rescue the hostages, the SAT attack was inevitable."

Kobe Yuya's face was recorded clearly by the camera.

"The other party is unarmed!"

a reporter shouted.

The other reporters around seemed to be instigated by him and echoed his words in unison.

He couldn't help but take out a handkerchief from his pocket and wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Initially, we received information at the scene that the suspect had more than ten rounds of ammunition. When we ordered the SAT attack, we did not receive any confirmation that the suspect had run out of bullets."

After Kobe Yuya finished speaking, the reporters and media below became agitated again.

Qinghai Chuantang didn't listen any more and chose to turn off the TV.

Who leaked the secret?

"excuse me."

Naoji Koshiyama appeared at the door, walked in and said, "Director, regarding the report, the Metropolitan Police Department investigator said that they saw a detective from the branch office talking to a reporter from the Daily Newspaper at the scene."

Kitai Nosuke and Hisahara Daisatoshi were both shocked.

"Who is this criminal policeman?" Qinghai Chuantang asked in a low voice.

After hesitating for a moment, Naoshi Koshiyama finally revealed the man's name.
When Nishikami Seiichi was called into the director's office, she asked the other three to leave first.

"What happened?"

He asked somewhat puzzled.

Qinghai Chuantang walked up to him and said straight to the point: "Some people said that they saw you talking to reporters from Meichao at the scene."

As she spoke, she handed the newspaper to the other person.

After taking it and looking at the news above, he instantly understood.

"Just tell me straight," Xi Shangcheng looked at her, "You suspect that I leaked the secret."

"So please tell me the truth."

"Director, you are very direct. I won't beat around the bush."

Nishigami Chengyi's expression became very serious: "There was a reporter I knew at the crime scene, and I did chat with him for a while. But I didn't say anything about this case."

"What's the reporter's name?" Qinghai Chuantang asked.

"His surname is Jing Yuan, but I forgot his specific name."

"I understand." Qinghai Chuantang looked at him, "I will find out the rest."

After saying that, she returned to her original position.

Xi Shangchengyi did not leave just like that.

Instead, he took a few steps forward and said, "If you want me to take the blame, I don't mind."

After saying that, he threw the newspaper on the desk.

"I didn't mean to let you take the blame."

Qinghai Chuantang looked at him and said seriously, "However, the report was published in the morning newspaper. The deadline for the morning newspaper is 2 a.m. Therefore, it is very likely that someone at the scene leaked the information."

The other party's attitude is indeed not what a leaker should have.

This point can be well explained using behavioral psychology.

After listening to her analysis, Xi Shangchengyi couldn't help but laugh.

"I understand the suspect's feelings very well."

"The Inspector will not pursue these matters."

"Inspector?"

The smile that was originally on the other person's face disappeared in an instant.

"The prisoner was shot. Whether this move was correct must of course be investigated."

After explaining it clearly to him, Qinghai Chuantang softened his voice and said, "It's okay. I'm sorry to call you over."

Xi Shangchengyi didn't say anything.

He just nodded slightly and left the director's office chewing gum.

After the other party left, Qinghai Chuantang made a phone call.

"Kirishima, are there any of your friends in the newspaper office? Do me a favor."

After hanging up the phone, Qinghai Chuantang turned his chair back, only to find someone who had suddenly appeared behind him.

He took out a chair and sat down.

"Have you found the person who leaked the information?" the other party asked straight to the point.

"Not yet, what's the matter?"

"I saw Chief Inspector Fujibayashi in the news room."

Qinghai Chuantang was startled, "Chief Inspector Fujilin?"

"it's him."

Kobe Yuya himself was puzzled. "Why would the Chief Inspector of the National Police Agency come here on purpose? Aren't there enough inspectors in the Metropolitan Police Department?"
