In Tokyo, a criminal

Chapter 222 I really can’t tell the difference! Yanchuan Laodeng is shocked

There was a faint smell of smoke in the interrogation room.

The smell of smoke filled the entire narrow space.

Aoyama Hidenobu shook off the ash from his cigarette and met Hasegawa's disdainful gaze, "Hase-kun follows Takei around, have you ever heard of Nohara Financial Co., Ltd."

Hasegawa Sawa's eyes flickered. Although Takei Baoxiong never told him about business matters, he often heard about this company from Takei Baoxiong's phone calls to others and knew that it was a powerful enemy of Takefuji.

"It seems that Hase-kun knows." Aoyama Hidenobu confirmed this from his reaction, took a puff of cigarette and continued, "I am a member of Nohara Financial Co., Ltd., and I invented the automatic loan machine. Mr. Takei once came to see me to discuss patent licensing."

As Takei Baoxiong's personal bodyguard, Hasegawa Sawa was inseparable from him. Naturally, he remembered that Takei had met Aoyama Hidenobu before, but he was waiting outside in the car and had no idea the purpose of their meeting.

But I still remember that Mr.'s face was ashen when he left the Aoyama family. Now it seems that the patent licensing issue was obviously broken down at that time. If Aoyama Hidenobu is really from Nohara Financial Co., Ltd., then there is a fundamental conflict of interest between him and Mr.

Then the death of Mr.

"In that case, it was you who instructed Sakai Ryosai to kill the gentleman!" Hasegawa Sawa's eyes were grim.

Yes, you are right.

But Aoyama Hidenobu certainly wouldn't admit it. He frowned and took out the cigarette from his mouth. "Why should I kill him? In the conflict between Takefuji and Nohara Financial Co., Ltd., we were always invincible. Was there any need to kill him? Besides, he was already blocked at the time, and there were so many murders on his body. If he was arrested, he would never be able to turn over in his life. Was there any need to kill him?"

When Hasegawa Ze heard this, a look of confusion appeared on his face. Yes, Aoyama Hidenobu was always the winner, and the gentleman was about to be imprisoned, so he had no motive to kill the gentleman.

"Why did he die? Don't tell me he was killed by a stray bullet in a firefight. That's just bullshit! When I left, the people sent by Yokoyama Ryohei had already withdrawn, and the gunfight was over!"

"Misfire." Aoyama Hidenobu spat out two words.

"Misfire?" Hasegawa Ze was furious as if he had heard a joke, "Do I look like a fool?"

"Sakai Yoshitsugu said it was an accidental discharge, but who can be sure whether it's true or not?" Aoyama Hidenobu spread his hands.

Hasegawa Ze heard something different from this sentence and frowned, "He's not yours?"

"In name, yes, but in reality, who can be sure of completely controlling another person? After all, I'm a superintendent, and what I can give him is more than what others can give." Aoyama Hidenobu said with a self-deprecating smile.

He started to deceive honest people again, deliberately leading the way in the direction that Sakai Ryosai was bribed by Yokoyama Ryohei, so it would seem that Yokoyama Ryohei killed Takei.

Hasegawa Ze's face changed and he said nothing.

Aoyama Hidenobu continued, "Afterwards, the fact that he accidentally fired the gun was even suppressed, and the Metropolitan Police Department reported to the public that Takei Baoxiong was killed by a stray bullet. Do you think I can do this?"

Hasegawa Sawa had no idea that this was a decision made by the police in order to avoid causing panic among the public, conceal the existence of a third-party gunman, and maintain their own face.

So after hearing what Aoyama Hidenobu said, he really felt that Sakai Yoshisai was most likely bribed by Yokoyama Ryohei and killed Takei Baoxiong to silence him.

"No! If Sakai Ryosai is Yokoyama Ryohei's man, then he has already captured me. Who are those gunmen who came to rob me?"

Hasegawa Ze suddenly raised his head and questioned.

"Of course it was Yokoyama Ryohei's man." Aoyama Hidenobu had already thought of an explanation. He put out the cigarette butt in his hand and said, "Sakai did catch you, but there were other policemen in the car at the time. He couldn't just hand you over to Yokoyama Ryohei, right? So it would only make sense that you were robbed in the middle of the journey. If no one tipped off, why do you think those gunmen showed up so punctually to rob people?"

"Also, the battle was so intense with bullets flying everywhere, but even so, Sakai Ryosai was not injured at all? He was so lucky."

Aoyama Hidenobu did not think that Sakai Ryosai was really lucky, but that the group of gunmen had no intention of killing him at all. After all, their purpose was to kidnap people, and the matter had already become a big deal. If they killed a police officer, the matter would be even bigger.

Ryohei Yokoyama still wanted to control the situation as much as possible.

This is a common problem among almost all bureaucrats, who always want to keep conflicts within a controllable range.

The doubt on Hasegawa Ze's face gradually dissipated.

Yes, right after he was arrested, the group of gunmen arrived. Someone must have tipped him off.

And it is true that Ryosai Sakai was not injured throughout the entire process.

"Tell me, or it will be too late. Yokoyama Ryohei will not sit still and wait for death. If he asks a higher-level department to transfer you on the grounds that you are involved in other confidential cases, I can't refuse."

Aoyama Hidenobu began to put pressure on him, raising his wrist to look at his watch, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

Hasegawa Sawa pursed his lips, feeling extremely conflicted.

Reason told him that Aoyama Hidenobu's analysis was reasonable, but his hunch told him that there must be something wrong, although he couldn't find out what it was.

"Hase-kun! Don't you want to avenge Mr. Takei? Yokoyama Ryohei is our common enemy! Please help me defeat him!"

Aoyama Hidenobu suddenly stood up, put his hands on the table, leaned over and stared at him, and spoke earnestly.

"The thing is in the toilet tank of the master bedroom bathroom on the third floor of Villa No. 124, Shimogyo District, Kyoto."

Hasegawa Ze blurted out, then let out a long breath, closed his eyes, leaned his head back on the chair, and his chest continued to rise and fall.

"Thank you, Hase-kun!"

Aoyama Hidenobu was overjoyed, turned around and left, giving orders to Sakai Ryosai who had been guarding outside the door.

"Sakai, you go to Kyoto immediately..."

Separated by a door, Hasegawa Ze's eyes turned red as he heard the words. He realized that he had been deceived. His surging anger rushed straight to his head and veins on his neck bulged.

“Ahhh! Aoyama Hidenobu! Ahhh!”

The intense anger at being deceived made him struggle constantly to break free from the restraints on his body. His face was hideous and he let out hysterical roars, his voice sharp and piercing.

Who does Sakai Ryo belong to?

How much truth is there in Aoyama Hidenobu's words?
Who is actually working for Ryohei Yokoyama?

He can't tell the difference, he really can't tell the difference!

Listening to the roar behind him, Aoyama Hidenobu admired his loyalty and walked in again.

Hasegawa gritted his teeth and glared at him.

"I just lied to you, but there is one thing I didn't lie to you. I got those things to deal with Yokoyama Ryohei. Hase-kun, I admire your loyalty, which is rare in this society." "Anyway, thank you very much for your help!"

After Aoyama Hidenobu finished speaking, he bowed deeply and solemnly to him, then turned and left.

Hasegawa's emotions gradually stabilized. Although he was still very angry about being deceived, at least Aoyama Hidenobu was really trying to deal with Yokoyama Ryohei. In any case, he had avenged Mr. Takei.

"Please rest in peace, Mr. Takei."

Hasegawa closed his eyes and muttered to himself.

....................................

Office of the Minister of the Autonomous Province.

Juro Hikokawa is writing on a report.

With a head full of silver hair, at the age of seventy, he has not coveted the family happiness that belongs to ordinary old people. He still sticks to his post, unwilling to give up the responsibilities on his shoulders, and works hard to serve the people. It is really touching.

"Dong dong dong!" There was a knock on the door.

Without even looking up, he said, "Come in."

"Sir, Director Yokoyama of the Cabinet Legal Affairs Bureau is here to visit you." The secretary pushed the door open and reported.

"Oh?" Hikokawa Juro stopped writing, showing a hint of doubt, then smiled and said, "Please come in."

"Hi!" The secretary turned and left.

Then Ryohei Yokoyama walked into the office, and without saying a word, he prostrated himself and got down from his seat.

"I beg Lord Yanchuan to have mercy on me for my hard work throughout my life, and please show me mercy for my small contribution to the country! From now on, I will follow your lead!"

Juro Hikokawa was completely confused.

At his age, what hasn't he seen?

But I have never seen such a scene before!

Although Ryohei Yokoyama did not enter the cabinet, it was only a matter of time. Moreover, at the age of fifty, he was in his prime in officialdom and had a bright future.

But now he suddenly becomes so humble.

What's going on here?
"What is Chief Yokoyama doing?" After realizing what was happening, Hikokawa Juro immediately stepped forward to help him up, and urged him, "Hurry up and talk."

"Lord Yanchuan! Please save me, you must save me!" But Yokoyama Ryohei refused to get up.

He came here today with all his heart set on going all out.

Hikokawa Juro sighed, "You need to tell me what happened. I'm still confused."

"Hey!" Ryohei Yokoyama told everything without hiding anything, because Juro Hikokawa would know the truth as long as he asked Aoyama Hidenobu.

After he finished speaking, he burst into tears, his face full of regret and self-blame, "I know that I was tempted by Takei Baoxiong's greed and made a big mistake, but now I have come to my senses. I beg Master Yanchuan to help me because we are all working for Tianhuang!"

"If Lord Yanchuan is willing to lend a helping hand, all of us will be grateful to you. From now on, we will always follow the Yanchuan family's lead and obey your orders!"

That's right, he voted directly.

Survive from death.

Rather than waiting for Aoyama Hidenobu to use Takefuji's secret accounts to deal with him, it would be better for him to take the initiative to join the Hikokawa family.

With his own leverage in hand, the Yanchuan family should trust him and accept him. After all, he and the power he holds are still worth winning over.

As a dog raised by Hikokawa Kentomo, Aoyama Hidenobu would never dare to disobey the orders of the Hikokawa family, right?

With his status and power, his role after joining the Hikokawa family camp will be much greater than that of Aoyama Hidenobu, and he will directly become one of the core members of the Hikokawa family. I will settle this series of accounts with Aoyama Hidenobu when I have the chance!
In addition, the reason why he came alone to surrender and beg for mercy today was that he wanted to unite the bureaucrats under him by being humiliated alone, and those people in the Yanchuan family will also be his supporters in the future.

Although Hikokawa Juro appears to be as calm as an old dog on the surface, his heart is actually in turmoil and he is unable to speak for a long time.

He knew Aoyama Hidenobu, who was the right-hand man of his grandson Hikokawa Kentomo, and he admired him very much.

But they never expected that a police inspector could actually pry open a group headed by the director of the Cabinet Legal Affairs Bureau and force them to come to him for help.

This… this is simply… too ridiculous.

If Ryohei Yokoyama hadn't been kneeling in front of him at this moment, he wouldn't even dare to believe that this was true.

In the past, if anyone told him such things, he would slap the person in the face to stop daydreaming.

just now……

Aoyama Hidenobu, a talent! A huge talent!

"Well, Mr. Yokoyama, there are some things I need to know more about. You go back first. We are all officials in the same court, and I will naturally lend a hand wherever I can." After coming to his senses, Juurō Hikokawa did not agree directly, but said with a smile.

Yokoyama Ryohei knew that the other party wanted to learn more about the situation and weigh the pros and cons. It would be useless for him to stay any longer, so he stood up and said, "Hi!"

After bowing deeply he turned and left.

at this point.

He has done everything he needs to do.

All you can do next is wait agonizingly.

After watching Yokoyama Ryohei leave, Hikokawa Juro immediately picked up the phone and called, "Xianyou, invite Aoyama Hidenori to your home. I'll be back soon."

He felt that it was time for him to meet the top detective of the Heisei era, Inspector Aoyama, who was capable of swallowing an elephant like a snake.
