In Tokyo, a criminal

Chapter 325: Edogawa Jinshu assists, arrogant and domineering Aoyama Hidenobu (ask for monthly votes at the beginning of the month!)

In the evening, the Tono family was having dinner.

There are only two people in the huge restaurant, Higashino Gen and his son Higashino Jiecheng, because Higashino Jiecheng's mother died of complications during childbirth. Although Higashino Gen has no shortage of women around him, he never remarried.

Because he concentrated all his love for his wife and son on Dongye Jiecheng, and because he was too busy with business to pay attention to his education, Dongye Jiecheng developed his current arrogant, lawless character.

The empty villa seemed a little deserted. Every night during dinner, the father and son felt the loneliest and had no desire to talk.

The only sound in the silence was the occasional clinking of cutlery.

"Dad, have you found the right person to mediate?" Dongye Jiecheng broke the silence. He only stayed at home for one day today, but he felt a little overwhelmed. He really can't sit still.

Even if you can order takeout to your door, although the service is attentive, it is still not as enjoyable as going out to eat yourself.

Higashino Gen answered his son's question while eating, "I heard that Aoyama Hidenori has a good relationship with the family of the president of the Supreme Court. I plan to ask Hashimoto Miki to come forward. Women are easier to deal with."

"That's good, let's do it as soon as possible. I'm going crazy if I stay at home any longer." Dong Ye Xuan let out a breath.

Dong Yexuan snorted coldly, "You can't stand it after just one day. This is home, not a den of dragons and tigers."

"No, Dad. I'm mainly worried that not going to school will affect my studies." Dongye Jiecheng said with a wry smile.

Dong Yexuan sneered, "With your academic performance, is there any room for improvement?"

Dong Ye Jiecheng's face turned pale and blue. He wanted to refute this, but in the end he lowered his head dejectedly.

He is a son and he doesn't talk back to his father.

"Sir, people from the Metropolitan Police Department are here." At this moment a bodyguard walked in quickly and reported.

"Metropolitan Police Department!" Dongye Jiecheng stood up instantly when he heard this, very nervous, "Dad, they are not coming for me, are they? What should I do now?"

"What's the hurry? Sit down! Calm down!" Dong Yexuan glared at him unhappily, then calmly ordered the bodyguard, "Please let them in."

He didn't believe that Aoyama Hidenobu had found evidence that Higashino Kazue was involved in the case so quickly. He was just trying to intimidate and pressure him to make him lose his composure.

"Hi!" The bodyguard turned and left, and a moment later walked in with five policemen including Edogawa Jinshu.

Dong Yexuan continued to concentrate on eating, without even raising his head, and said, "Just tell me if you have anything to say."

"President Higashino, excuse me for disturbing you." Edogawa Jinshu bowed politely, then looked up at Higashino Yusei and said, "We have found out that your son Higashino Yusei is involved in a murder case, so we are here to ask him to go back and investigate. Please cooperate with the police."

"Is there any evidence?" Dong Ye Xuan asked calmly.

Edogawa Jinshu smiled slightly, "How can we get evidence if we don't investigate? According to the law, we have the right to ask any citizen to assist in the investigation for 24 hours, and citizens are obliged to cooperate with our police unconditionally in handling the case."

Higashino Gen's face darkened. It was indeed as he thought that the police had no evidence. However, what was different from what he thought was that he thought Aoyama Hidenobu just sent someone to put pressure on them.

I didn't expect that they would really take his son away for investigation.

"Please come in, Mr. Higashino Yusuke." Edogawa Jinshu looked at Higashino Yusuke and raised his hand to make a gesture of invitation.

Dongye Jiecheng looked at his father, "Dad..."

"It's okay, isn't it just 24 hours? Go with them." Higashino Gen said, looking at Edogawa Jinshu threateningly, "I won't let them go even if you lose a single hair on your body."

"President Higashino, don't worry. We will take good care of your son." Edogawa Jinshu said meaningfully, then turned around and walked out.

Two subordinates stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, to protect Dongye Jiecheng as he walked out, while Dongye Jiecheng looked back every three steps, and followed them out with a reluctant look on his face.

At this moment, a bodyguard walked in hurriedly, "Sir, there are a lot of reporters outside."

Dong Yexuan's face suddenly turned gloomy when he heard this.

If those reporters report tomorrow that Higashino Yutaka was taken away by the police, the share price of Higashino Construction Co., Ltd. will definitely be affected.

"Baka! That bastard Aoyama Hidenobu!"

But this time, Higashino Gen wrongly accused Aoyama Taikun. He was completely unaware of this. It was all Edogawa Jinshu who acted on his own. He was completely innocent.

Reporters outside the door had already started taking photos frantically and were excitedly pointing the microphones in front of Dong Ye Jiecheng.

"May I ask why you took Dong Ye Jiecheng away?"

"Is the East Ye group suspected of committing a crime?"

"Mr. Higashino Yusei, please say a few words!"

"We are just asking Higashino Yutaka to go back and cooperate with the investigation as a routine matter. We have no specific information to share. Please don't stop us from handling the case," said Edogawa Jinshu.

It seems that he said nothing, but it is this ambiguous attitude that is the most intriguing, and it allows reporters to use their imagination to the maximum extent and write about it in detail.

Listening to the noisy questioning outside, Dongye Xuan's face in the villa was gloomy. He must quickly get Dongye Jiecheng out and then quickly clarify the matter to the public. He couldn't let him be locked up for a whole day.

So he immediately began to contact Hashimoto Miki through his network of connections, intending to settle the matter even if it meant spending a huge amount of money on his own as long as Aoyama Hidenobu didn't want the shares, and not to cause any more trouble.

Aoyama Hidenobu was enjoying his sister-in-law's hands, feet and mouth at home. He was already drowsy from the comfort, but was awakened by the sudden ringing of the phone. He could only open his eyes and answer the call while cursing, "Moshimoshi."

Haruko Aoyama did not stop. Her fair and tender hands and feet wrapped in black stockings were massaging rhythmically. Her face was slightly red and her forehead was sweating from exhaustion, but she was still very focused.

"Master, Higashino Gen just met me and asked me to mediate the conflict between him and you, and promised me a generous reward." said Hashimoto Miki.

Aoyama Hidenobu chuckled, rolled his eyes and said, "If there is a sucker who is eager to give you money, don't refuse it. I will buy you a few more new clothes to please me. But of course things can't go as he wishes. If you do this later...ah! Hiss~"

"What's wrong, Master?" asked Miki Hashimoto.

Aoyama Hidenobu glanced at his sister-in-law who looked a little jealous and said, "It's okay, let's just leave it at that."

The sister-in-law just kicked him a little hard.

After hanging up the phone, he pinched his sister-in-law's slender calf and teased, "What's wrong, are you jealous?" "No, not at all." Haruko Aoyama snorted.

Aoyama Hidenobu looked at his brother with pity and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so cruel. I have been swollen from that kick just now. Look, it is so big that it is about to ooze pus. Why don't you blow on it quickly to reduce the swelling and suck out the pus?"

Haruko Aoyama was amused and gave him a coquettish look, then leaned over to check his injuries.

"Hiss~Sister-in-law, you are so nice, I love you."

At this moment, the man can blurt out any sweet words without hesitation, and Mr. Bean is the boss.

After the swelling on his side subsided, Hashimoto Miki called again, and this time she spoke seriously.

"Inspector Qingshan, I hope I am not disturbing you. I wonder if I could invite you out for a drink."

Obviously, Higashino Gen was by her side this time.

"Since Judge Hashimoto has invited me, Hidenobu naturally cannot refuse." Aoyama Hidenobu agreed without hesitation.

After giving an address, Hashimoto Miki hung up the phone and looked at Higashino Gen on the other side and said indifferently: "Aoyama Hidenobu's idea is very correct. I can only say that I can mediate, but I may not be able to convince him. President Higashino should be mentally prepared in advance and don't have too high hopes for me."

"Judge Hashimoto just needs to do his best. Whether it succeeds or not, you will be rewarded handsomely." Higashino Gen said politely. In his opinion, the other party's words were just modesty. Would Aoyama Hidenobu dare not give her face?

After all, not to mention their friendship, the identity of Hashimoto Miki's husband alone is enough to overwhelm Aoyama Hidenobu.

He can't be so ungrateful.

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

At 9:30 in the evening, Aoyama Hidenobu, wearing a black kimono and wooden clogs, came to a high-end izakaya in Chiyoda Ward. After giving his name as Hashimoto Miki, he was led to a private room by the waiter.

When Aoyama Hidenobu pushed open the camphor door and saw Higashino Gen inside, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"Mr. Aoyama is here, please take a seat." Miki Hashimoto greeted him warmly with a smile as beautiful as a flower.

Dong Yexuan nodded slightly, "Inspector Qingshan."

"It seems that Judge Hashimoto asked me out tonight for more than just drinks." Aoyama Hidenobu took off his clogs and walked into the private room, saying with a forced smile.

Higashino Gen was a little surprised. Was Aoyama Hidenori so arrogant? Even if he was unhappy, he shouldn't have spoken to Hashimoto Miki in this tone.

Aren’t you afraid of offending the other party?

Hashimoto Miki still smiled and poured a glass of wine for Aoyama Hidenobu. "I know that Aoyama-kun and President Higashino have some conflicts, but you are all my friends. It is better to resolve the feud than to create it. Just talk it out."

"Splash!" Aoyama Hidenobu directly picked up the glass of wine she had poured and poured it on her face. He glared at her with a cold face and said, "You want to be a peacemaker, but did you inform me in advance? Do you not take me seriously?"

Higashino Gen was stunned by the scene, his head was buzzing, and he felt that Aoyama Hidenobu was crazy.

But what made him even more confused was yet to come.

After being splashed with wine, Hashimoto Miki not only did not lose her temper, but she knelt down and bowed deeply to Aoyama Hidenobu, "Aoyama-kun, please calm down. I thought it was just a small conflict and didn't know the inside story, so I made the decision on my own. Please don't hold it against me for the sake of my husband, Red Bean Paste Private Marseille!"

Dongye Xuan opened his mouth wide and was dumbfounded. This matter developed completely differently from what he had imagined.

How could this happen! His brain was about to short-circuit.

"If you want to be friends with me, then you can't be friends with this old guy. It's your choice!" Aoyama Hidenobu snorted coldly and put down his wine glass, showing his arrogance.

Without hesitation, Hashimoto Miki turned around and bowed to Higashino Gen, "President Higashino, I'm sorry."

Higashino Gen opened his mouth and seemed to be hesitant to speak, and suddenly realized that he seemed to not know Aoyama Hidenobu enough.

Could it be that his true strength was stronger than she knew? Otherwise, how could Hashimoto Miki be so humble and bring up her husband just to ask for forgiveness?

She just had a glass of wine poured on her!
This is a great humiliation!
At the same time, he suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Aoyama Hidenobu dared to ask for such a high price. It was not because human greed was unbearable, but because he really had the confidence!

For a moment, he broke out in a cold sweat. If he didn't realize this and continued to confront Aoyama Hidenobu head-on, would there be any good ending?

Thinking of this, he regretted it so much that he said to Aoyama Hidenobu in a hurry: "Superintendent Aoyama, please do not blame Judge Hashimoto. I called her here today just to let her be a witness. I hope to exchange 10% of the shares of Higashino Corporation for your forgiveness and release my good-for-nothing son from the Metropolitan Police Department as soon as possible."

Since Aoyama Hidenobu is so awesome, fighting with him will only result in a bloody nose. It is not worth it even if both sides suffer losses. It is better to just bow your head and admit defeat.

Being able to allow such a capable person to become a shareholder of one's own company will be more beneficial to the development of the company.

Sai Weng lost his horse, how do you know it is not a blessing?
"Is that so?" Aoyama Hidenobu showed an interested smile and mocked, "I thought you wanted Judge Hashimoto to pressure me and force me to reconcile with you by giving me some excuses."

"I dare not, I dare not, I dare not, I have never thought about it!" Higashino Xuan's scalp tingled and he shook his head to deny it repeatedly. Seeing that Hashimoto Miki took the initiative to pour wine for Aoyama Hidenobu, his attitude became more respectful.

Qingshan Hidenobu snorted coldly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and said: "You are smart, otherwise you may not be able to keep 10% of the shares. I will arrange someone to contact you. After the contract is signed, your son will be able to go home soon. If you have nothing else, leave first."

"Hi!" Dong Ye Xuan bowed his head, bowed again after standing up, and then hurried away with his head lowered.

After the door was closed, only Aoyama Hidenobu and Hashimoto Miki were left in the private room. After a moment's silence, the two looked at each other and burst into laughter, enjoying themselves to the fullest.

"Madam, you helped me a lot tonight."

Aoyama Hidenobu pounced on Miki Hashimoto and pressed her down on the tatami, licking the wine off her face.

"Then how is the master going to reward me?"

Miki Hashimoto smiled foolishly with seductive eyes.

"Of course, with sticks!"

Then there were sounds of laughter and playfulness in the private room.

The couple were in high spirits after they had cheated someone.
