In Tokyo, a criminal

Chapter 332: Ito Makoto forces his way to power, the real murderer surfaces

Compared to the Maritime Self-Defense Force and the Air Self-Defense Force.

Aoyama Hidenobu attached more importance to the Ground Self-Defense Force.

Because they have more people and more guns, they have stronger mobility on land. Whether they are used for military coups or to suppress resistance, the effect they can produce is better than that of the Maritime Self-Defense Force and the Air Self-Defense Force.

Therefore, the focus of the work of the three armed forces of the Self-Defense Forces is definitely the Land Defense Force, followed by the Navy and the Air Defense Force.

"I am naturally very happy that Mr. Aoyama is so concerned about us, but I cannot make decisions for everyone, so please allow me to go back and gather everyone to discuss it." Ito Makoto said with a reserved smile.

Aoyama Hidenobu nodded, "I understand."

He believed that other officers in Lu Wei would agree.

These people have large sums of money in their hands, but because the military is relatively closed, they don't know how to invest or manage money and can only make a living by corruption. Now that there is an opportunity to make money, they will definitely not miss it.

If you think about it carefully, all the corrupt officers actually have a lot of cash in their hands, but lack reliable investment channels or money laundering channels.

And I am fully capable of taking on this role.

From now on, help the military make money and launder money through investment, and then go into politics in the future to help the military speak out and fight for their interests, step by step becoming a representative of interests that is closely related to the military and shares the same interests with them.

If this goes on, the entire army will be corrupted by myself. Who will dare to touch me in the future?

Who dares to touch the army’s purse?

Then the army dares to use guns!
An army that is polluted and corrupted by money means that the government has lost control over it.

Although his life was already very comfortable, Aoyama Taikun never forgot his original intention and was always thinking about a coup to seize power, because he could not bear to see the powerful oppressing the Japanese people and riding on their heads and doing whatever they wanted.

The Japanese people should be oppressed by him!
As they were both heading towards the destination, Aoyama Hidenobu and Ito Makoto had a great conversation. The dinner did not end until midnight, when they said goodbye to each other reluctantly.

Although we chatted until late, we didn't drink much.

Makoto Ito's mind was still clear. He did not go home to rest, but went to the Army Guard's Staff Office. On the way, he called the secretary and asked him to notify all the Army Guard officers above the rank of lieutenant colonel in Tokyo to hold an emergency meeting.

When he arrived at the General Staff Office, some officers had already arrived and stood up to salute him.

He returned the greeting and sat directly on the main seat that should have belonged to the chief of staff, but no one said anything.

This in itself is a temptation.

Makoto Ito was very satisfied with the result of the test.

After waiting for about ten minutes, some generals who lived far away also arrived, and the conference room was filled with generals.

"Gentlemen, I believe you all know what Lu Wei has been through in the past two days. I know that you are all indignant about this and are inevitably worried, but starting tonight you can put your minds at ease."

The reason why Makoto Ito held an emergency meeting was because he knew that this matter had caused panic among the people inside, so he wanted to announce the good news quickly to stabilize people's hearts first.

Otherwise, once people's hearts are in chaos, they are likely to do irrational things in order to avoid possible disasters.

"Wow!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the conference room.

The originally somewhat gloomy and depressing atmosphere was instantly broken, and everyone was surprised, happy and incredulous.

"What Vice Minister Ito meant by this is... have the account books been retrieved? Is... is that so?"

"Did General Ito really find the account book?"

Ito Makoto raised his hand and clenched his fist. Everyone in the audience fell silent, but still looked at him eagerly, waiting for an answer.

"Yes, I got the account book back." Ito Makoto smiled and took out the account book from his arms.

The huge rock pressing on everyone's heart collapsed in an instant.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

God knows that some of them have already arranged to escape or are preparing to surrender. The psychological torture they have endured in just two days is more than that in the past year.

"Si Guoyi! Vice Minister Ito, how did you do it? How did you get the account book back so quickly?"

"Yeah, isn't that bastard Kudo dead? Did he hide the account book at home?"

When the sense of crisis disappeared, everyone wanted to satisfy their curiosity and asked questions one after another.

"This involves the second matter I want to discuss with you tonight." Ito Makoto put the account book back into his arms and glanced at everyone. "I didn't get the account book. It was given to me by Inspector Aoyama Hidenobu of the Metropolitan Police Department as a gift for Lu Wei."

"Aoyama Hidenobu? I know this person. He is the best detective in the Heisei era. He has great abilities and background."

"I heard that the Coast Guard cooperated with him to smuggle materials. Now everyone is rich."

"As far as I know, the head of the General Affairs Department of the Haiwei Staff Supervisor has a close relationship with him, and the two sides have had many exchanges."

Aoyama Hidenobu was famous, active, and most importantly, wealthy, and everyone present had heard of him.

Rumor has it that Aoyama Hidenobu does business with people not for money, but only for making friends. He can be called Japan's timely rain, Tokyo's Hu Baoyi, and the Metropolitan Police Department's Little Song Jiang.

"It seems that everyone knows about Superintendent Aoyama." Ito Makoto smiled and said, "My family Shanmu has a good relationship with Superintendent Aoyama. After learning about this, he felt very sympathetic towards us Lu Wei and lamented how miserable we must be to be forced to embezzle military funds!"

"So he wanted to lend a helping hand and invited me to invest in some of his businesses. You and I are all in the same boat, so we can't just think about ourselves when we have something good to do. So I asked him to bring everyone along. What do you think? If you agree, I will go to Inspector Aoyama to work out a charter and discuss the details."

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became heated. No one expected that Lu Wei, who had suffered for most of his life, would be able to have such a good thing for the first time. Everyone was in high spirits.

"Since Inspector Aoyama has such intention, I have no objection. I fully support Ito-kun's opinion."

"It's the same for me. The economy is bad and the government can't provide money. Soldiers like me should raise funds ourselves to solve the funding problem and take the initiative to share the country's worries!"

"Promise, I must promise. I can't let down Inspector Aoyama and General Ito for their kindness!"

The example of the Coast Guard is right there. How can we push away money that is delivered directly to our door?
"Okay! Since everyone agrees, I will make an appointment with Inspector Aoyama to discuss further on another day." Ito Makoto nodded, and then his expression gradually became serious.

Seeing this, the originally enthusiastic and joyful atmosphere in the conference room began to dissipate, the smiles on everyone's faces slowly faded, and the atmosphere became heavy again.

I know the highlight of the night is coming.

Ito Makoto exhaled, and scanned the crowd with a sharp gaze, "One last thing. I personally think that the Chief of Staff is too old to be competent for the current job. Considering the future of our tens of thousands of soldiers, I plan to ask him to retire early. What do you think?"

He had to take advantage of the fact that his chief of staff was derelict in his duty and everyone was dissatisfied with him, so that he could turn the tide, rally the people's hearts and gain the upper hand, and seize power in one fell swoop.

"Mr. Ito is right. Although the Chief of Staff has made great contributions to Lu Wei, he is no longer as energetic as before as he gets older. This is also for the sake of his health. I am willing to take the lead in petitioning and persuade the Chief of Staff to consider the overall situation." A major general stood up to express his opinion. "I agree." A lieutenant general slowly stood up and said, "I believe that with Mr. Ito leading everyone, Lu Wei's future will be brighter."

"I agree. I support Vice Minister Ito!"

The rest of the people raised their hands to show their approval.

The chief of staff’s absurd behavior almost killed everyone this time. Why should he continue to lead us in the future?
"Very good, thank you all for your kindness. Ito will definitely live up to everyone's expectations!" Ito Makoto bowed deeply.

The inferiors rebelling against their superiors is an old tradition in the Japanese military.

There is no time to lose, otherwise things will change. After reaching a consensus in thought, Ito Makoto took all the junior officers in Tokyo to find the chief of staff overnight to force him to abdicate.

The chief of staff was nearly 60 years old and had already gone to bed at this time. Living alone, he was woken up by the nanny.

"What's the matter?" the chief of staff asked in a daze.

The nanny said respectfully, "Sir, General Ito and a group of Lu Wei officers are here to visit us for urgent matters."

The chief of staff sat up instantly, thinking that there had been some new developments regarding the account book. He hurried downstairs without even bothering to wash his face. The huge living room was now full of people, all in military uniforms.

Ito Makoto sat alone on the sofa.

The rest of the people stood behind him.

Watching this scene, the chief of staff had a bad feeling in his heart, "Ito, what happened?"

"Sir, I'm here to report a good news to you. The account book has been retrieved." Ito Makoto stood up with his hands on his knees, bent down and bowed.

The chief of staff was so overjoyed that he even forgot about the uneasiness he had just felt. "Really? Yoshi! Ito-kun, you really didn't disappoint me. Where is the account book?"

He also hoped that everything would be fine once he got the account books back.

"Sir, I will keep the account book from now on to prevent it from being stolen again." Ito Makoto said seriously, and then bowed again, "There is one more thing tonight. You have worked hard in Lu Wei for decades, and it is time to rest. Please retire."

As soon as he finished speaking, the officers behind him bowed their heads and shouted in unison: "Your Excellency, please retire!"

Looking at his subordinates who were bowing in unison, the chief of staff's face gradually turned pale, and he staggered and sat down on the sofa with the help of his nanny.

"Does it have to be like this? It was just an accident!"

He argued for himself unwillingly.

Ito Makoto said: "Please consider the overall situation."

The rest of the people bowed in silence.

The Chief of Staff completely gave up, closed his eyes in pain, and nodded, "Okay, I promise you."

He was also very clear that his outrageous actions had pushed everyone to the opposite side, so he agreed to retire voluntarily so that he could at least retain some dignity and favors.

Otherwise the scene will be ugly and embarrassing.

"Thank you, sir." Ito Makoto raised his head and said sincerely, then turned around and left.

The other officers followed in silence.

The originally crowded living room was empty in an instant.

Just like the chief of staff's heart, it's empty.

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

The next morning, the sky was clear and cloudy.

Chief of Staff Riku Wei submitted his resignation to the Joint Staff Office and the Cabinet Defense Agency, stating that he was too old to perform the job and wanted to retire to treat his illness. He recommended Makoto Ito to succeed him.

The Joint Staff Office is equivalent to the headquarters of the three armed forces.

With the resignation of a powerful general, the transfer of power between Lu Wei will naturally not be completed so quickly. The cabinet still has to go through the process, and some details are unknown.

Early in the morning, Nobita Ken followed the bucktooth boy out to a cafe in the port area.

Because the person who sells bombs specifies that the transaction is done there.

The two walked into the coffee shop and saw a young man in his twenties sitting by the window looking around with a backpack at his feet.

The two looked at each other and walked over. Nobita Ken spoke first, "Excuse me, is this Miyauchi-kun?"

"Hi! It's me!" The young man stood up and bowed.

Nobi Kura Ken was a little disappointed because this person was not Oda Hiaki on the wanted list at all.

"Are you Tsuda-kun's friends?" Miyauchi asked cautiously and with some restraint.

Nobita Ken's eyes flashed. This guy was just here to deliver the goods and was not the actual maker of the bomb.

The bucktoothed boy nodded: "It's us."

"He asked me to give you this." Miyauchi handed over the backpack and continued, "He also said he left something here with you, right?"

"Wait a moment." The bucktoothed boy took it from the back, unzipped it and took a look. After confirming that it was a bomb, he handed over a small bag and said, "Here."

"Hi! Then I'll take my leave first." Gong Nei had some social anxiety, so he took the bag and left in a hurry.

If Tsuda Yu wasn't his landlord, who was very caring and enthusiastic towards him, he really wouldn't want to help deliver things as he has never been good at dealing with people.

When he returned to Tsuda Yu's house, before he could even open his mouth, Tsuda Yu asked with a smile, "Is everything going well?"

"Well, this is your stuff, Tsuda-kun." Miyauchi nodded and handed over the small bag.

After taking it, Tsuda Yu didn't rush to open it. Instead, he reached in and touched it, with a bright smile on his face.

"Thank you, Miyauchi-kun. Sorry for bothering you. Please do me one more favor and come to my room." Tsuda Yu zipped up his clothes and bowed to Miyauchi.

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the room.

"Hi!" Miyauchi nodded and followed closely.
