In Tokyo, a criminal

Chapter 411: Catch! Stay in Sapporo in peace (asking for monthly pass)

After hanging up the phone, Aoyama Hidenobu immediately conveyed Fujimoto Takaei's instructions, and a team of police officers followed the route up the mountain and indeed found a hidden cave.

The cave is deep, dark and damp, with many twists and turns inside. There is an independent power supply equipment, as well as an operating table and a large number of surgical instruments. There is also a blackboard on the wall with photos of seven victims, each with a red cross on it.

After receiving feedback and confirming that the cave had indeed been found, Aoyama Hidenobu immediately asked people to stay at the scene to collect evidence, while he personally led the team to the hospital.

Fujimoto Takaei was a meticulous person. Since the case was originally in charge of Aoyama Hidenobu and he was the one who found the key clues, he gave him the final finishing work. He did not personally lead the team to arrest people and reap the fruits of victory just because Matsushita Toyohiro directly asked him to expose Matsushita Hideyoshi's crimes.

With this kind of structure, it is no wonder that the Hokkaido Police Headquarters can be run like an iron barrel, holding both the black and white worlds in their hands and acting as the rule maker.

Although Aoyama Hidenobu, this traitor, has always wanted to seize power from Fujimoto Takayoshi and replace his dominant position in both the black and white worlds of Hokkaido, one has to admit that he does have some personal charm.

"Aoyama Police Officer Shizheng! It's Aoyama Police Officer Shizheng!"

"Qingshan police officer, may I ask if the police are conducting such a large-scale search of the mountain in order to round up fugitive criminals?"

"Or are you looking for the victim's body?"

When the reporters who were waiting outside saw Aoyama Hidenobu getting out of the car through the car window, they immediately rushed forward to block the car and asked questions one after another.

In this situation, Aoyama Hidenobu did not get off the car.

Instead, he opened the skylight and leaned out, saying to the reporters, "With our police's unremitting and full investigation, we have made a major breakthrough in the serial dismemberment case. We searched the mountain because we received reliable information that the murderer's den where he imprisoned and killed the dismembered victims is in the mountain. We have found it now. I am going to arrest the murderer now. Please make way."

Since they wanted to use the solving of the serial dismemberment case to reduce the heat of the shooting case, of course they had to reveal more information to reporters so that they would rush to report it.

The public's concern about hot events depends entirely on what the media reports. When everyone's attention is on the solving of the serial dismemberment case, last night's shooting will naturally be ignored.

For Aoyama Hidenobu, by condoning last night's shooting he disrupted the originally stable structure of the Hokkaido underworld and made it chaotic so that he could fish in troubled waters in the future. At the same time, it would be enough to leave a bad impression of Fujimoto Takayoshi's incompetence to his superiors.

As a member of the Hokkaido Police Headquarters who shares the same honors and disgrace, he does not want reporters to keep focusing on the shooting case until there is evidence to catch Miyazaki.

And after catching Miyazaki Isami, there will be no need for reporters to keep an eye on him. He will take the initiative to hold a press conference to publicize his contribution.

"Has the serial dismemberment murderer been found?"

"Can Superintendent Masaru reveal his identity?"

"How did the police find the clues..."

All the reporters present were surprised and delighted to hear such a breaking news suddenly, and then a new round of questions was thrown at Aoyama Hidenobu one after another.

"Don't ask any more questions. Everyone, make way. Let Inspector Qingshan catch the murderer before he runs away!"

Suddenly a reporter shouted at the top of his lungs.

The originally excited reporters reacted instantly after hearing this. They could follow Aoyama Hidenobu's car and go directly to the arrest scene. Wouldn't the news value they would get then be greater than asking questions here?
So everyone dispersed again, made way for the road, and ran towards the parking lot.

"Drive." Aoyama Hidenobu got back into the car.

About a few minutes later, three police cars were speeding on the road with sirens blaring and lights flashing, followed by a bunch of private cars of various kinds, some of which had the logos and slogans of their respective newspapers printed on their bodies.

When Aoyama Hidenobu arrived at the hospital, Matsushita Toyohiro, who looked haggard, was already waiting at the gate.

Aoyama Hidenobu led his men out of the car to greet them, and bowed politely, "Dean Matsushita, nice to see you again. I really admire your ability to distinguish right from wrong and to help our police solve the case for the sake of justice."

No matter what considerations Matsushita Toyohiro had in betraying his son, judging by his actions rather than his intentions, he did help the police, so on the surface we should still affirm his behavior.

As he got out of the car, a team of police quickly set up a cordon outside the hospital gate to prevent reporters who arrived later from rushing in.

"Why is it Dean Matsushita? Could the murderer be a doctor in the hospital? Deputy Minister Aoyama, please answer!"

"President Matsushita, please say a few words too!"

The reporters who were stopped outside the cordon stretched their necks and held the microphones in their hands, shouting at the top of their lungs.

Seeing so many reporters, Matsushita Toyoyu's face suddenly turned ugly. He ignored the reporters and said in grief: "It was all because of my poor parenting that he made such a big mistake. Because of my profession, I forced him to study medicine. I didn't expect that he would use the anatomical techniques he learned in this kind of thing. Thinking about the innocent victims makes me feel heartbroken. I raised a demon with my own hands."

At this point, tears rolled down his eyes. It was unknown whether he was in pain because of the crime his son had committed, or because he felt guilty for betraying his son. He closed his eyes, wiped away his tears, and said, "Let's go, Qingshan Police Officer Shizheng, I'll take you to catch this rebellious son."

"President Matsushita could have avoided it. It's human nature and understandable," Aoyama Hidenobu advised.

Matsushita Toyoyu shook his head, his eyes painful but stubborn and determined, "It was my negligence in educating him that made him become like this. I am sending him off for the last time."

Now that you have decided to establish yourself as someone who puts justice above personal interests, you must carry it through to the end.

Did he have feelings for Hideyoshi Matsushita?
Of course, and it’s very deep.

But he now has a little son, a healthy little son. In order for this little son to thrive, he must maintain his glorious and respectable identity as the dean. Therefore, he can only sell Matsushita Hideyoshi so that he can avoid criticism from public opinion.

Otherwise, considering the impact, his superiors would definitely ask him to make a public apology and then resign voluntarily. Moreover, there are many people inside and outside the company who are eyeing his position as dean, and these people will definitely add insult to injury.

"In that case, please come in, President Matsushita." Aoyama Hidenobu nodded and raised his hand in a gesture of invitation.

Matsushita Toyoyu led the way silently.

"Good job!" After arriving at the door of the ward, the two policemen in charge of guarding Matsushita Hideyoshi immediately saluted and greeted him.

Aoyama Hidenobu nodded in response.

Matsushita Toyoyu pushed open the door and walked in first.

Matsushita Hideyoshi, who had been waiting anxiously, was overjoyed when he saw his father and couldn't wait to say, "Dad, you are finally back! How is it? Is it settled? Can I stay in Sapporo or go abroad?"

"Stay in Sapporo." Aoyama Hidenobu led his men in, met his stunned look and said calmly, "Stay and be buried in peace."

"Why are you here!" Matsushita Hideyoshi yelled in panic, then looked at Matsushita Toyohiro anxiously and asked repeatedly: "Dad, what's going on?"

"Alas, it's my fault that I didn't teach you well." Matsushita Toyoyu sighed heavily, and said with a sad face: "Hideyoshi, face the reality. Since you have done something wrong, you must take responsibility. Take the initiative to explain everything to Superintendent Aoyama and leave calmly and decently."

"What do you mean? What do you mean?" Matsushita Hideyoshi was struck by lightning, looking at Matsushita Toyoyu with disbelief, roaring with red eyes, "I regarded you as my lifeline, but you betrayed me? I am your own son! How could you do this to me!"

Faced with his son's accusations, Matsushita Toyoyu couldn't help but burst into tears, but he pursed his lips and said nothing.

"Ah! Speak!" Matsushita Hideyoshi was hysterical, crying and yelling, "You don't care about me anymore because you have a little son! You wish I could die so that you can make room for your family! Even if I become a ghost, I will haunt you forever!"

Matsushita Toyoyu clenched his fists, his heart aching.

"Take him away." Aoyama Hidenobu waved his hand.

Two police officers immediately stepped forward and forcibly held down Hideyoshi Matsushita and handcuffed him. Because of his inconvenient legs and feet, he could only be pushed out in a wheelchair.

"Let me do it." Matsushita Toyoyu's voice was hoarse.

The police officer pushing the wheelchair looked at Aoyama Hidenobu.

Aoyama Hidenobu nodded slightly, and then the police officer pushed the wheelchair to Matsushita Toyohiro and handed it to him.

"Get lost! Don't touch me! Why do you have to be so hypocritical? I am in this state now because of you!"

Hideyoshi Matsushita, who was in a wheelchair, reacted excitedly.

I almost fell down from there several times, but luckily my legs were not working well and I couldn't exert force in my lower body, so I didn't fall down.

While being pushed out of the hospital, Hideyoshi Matsushita cried and cursed Matsushita Toyohiro all the way, saying all the vicious words one could think of.

Matsushita Toyoyu said nothing the whole time, but just silently shed tears and pushed him outside.

When they arrived at the hospital gate, the reporters outside were stunned when they saw this scene. They didn't understand why a mummy was pushed out. But when they saw the handcuffs on the mummy's hands, they immediately rushed to take pictures.

"Officer Qingshan, why is the murderer in the hospital? Is he wrapped like this because of the burns?"

"Dean Matsushita, why are you crying and pushing the murderer out? Is he related to you in any way?"

Before Aoyama Hidenobu could answer, Matsushita Toyohiro said in a hoarse voice, "He is my son."

"Wow!"

Hearing this, the whole audience was in an uproar.

"Dean Matsushita, you...what did you say? Are you saying that the serial dismemberment murderer is your son?"

"Yes, it was my failure to discipline him, which caused him to be harmed by society. So I personally reported him to the police with tears in my eyes, and asked him to give an explanation to the victim." Matsushita Toyohiro said in a low voice.
The crowd exploded again.

As the director of one of the most famous hospitals in Hokkaido, Toyohiro Matsushita has extensive working experience in the local area and is a highly respected person.

It was shocking enough that his son was the serial dismemberment murderer, but it was even more shocking that he exposed his son to the police.

Aoyama Hidenobu testified on behalf of Matsushita Toyoyu and said with a serious expression: "Although we have already identified Matsushita Hideyoshi as the suspect and preliminarily determined that the first crime scene was in Nishigan Park, we still don't have an exact location. Thanks to Dean Matsushita's sacrifice of his own personal interests, we police officers have saved a lot of time."

He must explain the breakthroughs the police made on his own, otherwise the public will certainly mistakenly believe that the police solved the case entirely because of Matsushita Toyoyu's revelations.

"If a son is not well educated, it is the fault of the father. As a father, I cannot escape my responsibility. Here, I would like to apologize to all the victims and the people." Matsushita Toyohiro bowed deeply.

Matsushita Hideyoshi cursed viciously: "This is so hypocritical! How can a cold-blooded animal who can watch his own son die without saving him be called a traitor for the sake of justice?"

"The murderer has been arrested. The police will compile relevant evidence and submit it to the Procuratorate. Please wait for notification of specific information. Now please get out of the way." Aoyama Hidenobu said seriously.

Then, under the escort of his subordinates, he finally managed to get rid of the reporters and got into the car and left.

Matsushita Toyoyu did not follow. He stood quietly at the hospital entrance, watching the police car drive away with his fists clenched.

Hideyoshi, your father will definitely avenge you!
He had no choice but to betray his son, and he subconsciously tried to avoid his own behavior, unwilling to admit that he was the one who killed his son, so he pushed the blame onto the police and onto Aoyama Hidenobu, who was in charge of the case.

It was all because of Aoyama Hidenobu's meddling and his insistence on the serial dismemberment case that he was forced to betray his son and was about to kill his eldest son.

Seeing that the reporter failed to catch up with the police car and returned to interview him, he immediately showed sadness and waited to continue to strengthen his image of being a man who would sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice.

"A doctor's duty is to save the dying and the wounded. Although I am a father, I am more of a doctor. My son did not inherit my philosophy of curing illnesses and saving lives, but instead killed and dismembered people. I really cannot go against my conscience and morality and choose to protect him..."
