In Tokyo, a criminal

Chapter 422: The Price of Being Overly Cautious: Gaining Trust
About half an hour later, Inoue returned home.

Seeing two police cars parked outside the door and the door open, he strode in.

Looking at the room full of police officers and the mess on the ground, his originally expressionless face suddenly became terribly gloomy.

Before he could even react, the frightened and angry Mrs. Inoue pounced on him, crying and scratching him.

"How could you hit the principal! Now they've called the police, what are you going to do? And you've lost your job, how are you going to live in the future? Wuuwuwuwu."

Not all housewives are obedient to their husbands, especially when their husbands do not earn enough money.

"That's enough. You and your son will starve to death." Inoue grabbed his wife's wrist and said coldly.

Meeting her husband's cold eyes, Mrs. Inoue's breathing paused for a moment and she dared not say anything more.

It was the first time she discovered this side of her husband.

It's scary.

But at the same time, I feel a little moved...it's just cheap!

"Handcuff him and take him away." Having waited for more than half an hour, the impatient police captain stood up and gave the order.

Two police officers immediately walked towards Inoue.

"Wait." Inoue said, looking at the inspector meaningfully, "Officer, I have something to say to you. Can you please move over and talk to me?"

"It's inconvenient!" The police captain rejected his request without hesitation, and exposed his idea with a mocking tone, "You want to go to a more private place and pay me? Who do you think I am? I am a police officer who defends the law and justice! Not one of those corrupt officials who disregard the law! Take him away immediately!"

If this was assigned by the director himself, it meant that this guy must have offended the director or the director's relatives or friends somewhere. How could I show favoritism to him?

Moreover, as a chemistry teacher, he could not see how much money the family could afford to bribe him, so he chose to stick to the bottom line as a policeman and strictly enforce the law!

Hearing their superior's order again, the two police officers who had stopped because of Inoue's words were no longer polite. They rushed forward like wolves and tigers, roughly held Inoue and forcibly handcuffed him.

Inoue was completely stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would not give him any chance to bribe him.

"Wait! Let's talk! I will give you a hard work fee that will satisfy both of you! It's just a small thing!" Inoue said directly.

"Pa!" The police chief raised his hand and slapped him in the face, threatening: "Shut your mouth now, or you will be charged with bribery."

"Then let me make a phone call, can you please let me make a phone call?" Inoue could only settle for the next best thing.

The police inspector sneered, reached out his hand and patted his face in an insulting manner, saying, "It's okay to make a small request like making a phone call, but it's not okay for you. The director asked us to treat you well, so you have to be treated differently from ordinary people!"

Otherwise, how could he report his work to the Director?
"Bakayarō!" Inoue couldn't suppress the anger in his heart anymore and started cursing in frustration.

"Pa!" The inspector raised his hand and slapped him again. "You may have to stay in jail for a few more days for insulting law enforcement officers. Seal his mouth and take him away."

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked out first.

Two police officers sealed Jing's mouth with tape while he struggled, then dragged him out of the door and pushed him into a car.

Then two police cars drove away with sirens blaring.

Mrs. Inoue was at a loss throughout the whole process. She just watched and then sat on the ground crying.

After arriving at the police station, Inoue, a commoner, was beaten without even a chance to speak. There was no interrogation procedure at all and he was directly thrown into the detention room.

The new chairman of the Miyazaki family, the creator of a new type of ice poison, the ruthless man who caused countless casualties and had blood on his hands was taken to the police station.

"The chief specifically ordered that no one is allowed to visit this guy, and he is not allowed to make phone calls." The police chief who arrested the man gave specific instructions to the guards before leaving.

The guard replied respectfully, "Hi!"

After the inspector left, the guard who had just been bowing and nodding straightened his back and said to the people who were locked up in the same detention room with Inoue in a domineering manner: "You guys teach him the rules here."

Those who are detained in the detention room are generally those who have committed minor offenses, as well as prisoners who have not yet completed the interrogation process. There are all kinds of people in the detention room.

"Hey! Officer, don't worry. We will definitely make him adapt to life here as soon as possible! As roommates, this is our unshirkable responsibility!"

"Yes, yes, yes. I promise that he will stay there obediently until the term is up and he will not cause you any trouble."

The other detainees responded with a smile.

The detention room is not like a prison. There are no activities like going out for fresh air here. People are locked in the room every day. There is a lack of entertainment activities, and torturing new prisoners is one of their few pleasures.

So Inoue suffered a lot.

Inoue, who was beaten dizzy and thrown to the ground like a dead dog, now regretted that he was too cautious. Even when he was detained, no one rescued him.

For safety reasons, he always used an assumed name when engaging in criminal activities, and would not let his subordinates know his home address, so now he cannot contact the outside world, and people outside cannot contact him.

But fortunately, Aoyama Hidenobu asked Fujimoto Shizuka to arrange people to monitor the Inoue family during the day.

So when Inoue was arrested, the police officer in charge of surveillance reported to Fujimoto Shizuka immediately.

And Fujimoto Shizuka reported it to Aoyama Hidenobu.

"Inoue was arrested by the police?"

When Aoyama Hidenobu received the news, he was at Fujimoto Takaei's house looking over the information of the six core members of the investigation team with him, and he was completely confused.

"No, which department did this?"

Baka! Is there anyone who dares to steal my case?
Besides, I haven’t found any definitive evidence to catch Inoue yet, but that group of people have already found it?
When Fujimoto Takaei heard this, he put down the documents in his hand and looked at Aoyama Hidenobu with a frown.

Regarding the identity of the "teacher", Aoyama Hidenobu reported to him after confirming it from Nobi Kura Ken.

Currently, only three people in the entire police headquarters know about this: Aoyama Hidenobu, Fujimoto Takaei, and Fujimoto Shizuka.

Aoyama Hidenobu turned on the speakerphone so that he could hear clearly. "It's a police car from the Sapporo Kita Police Station, but I don't know which department it is," said Fujimoto Shizuka.

Just as Aoyama Hidenobu was about to order him to investigate, he saw Fujimoto Takaei raise his hand and immediately changed his words, "Then let's do this first. The people in charge of surveillance don't need to withdraw yet."

As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Fujimoto Takaei picked up the landline and called the director of the North Office. After the call was connected, he said, "This is Fujimoto Takaei."

"Hi! Good evening, Mr. Director. Are you calling me so late to give me instructions?" The Director of the North Branch's tone was very respectful. I guess he would be slightly bent over to answer the phone even if he was on the other side of the city.

Fujimoto Takaei asked calmly, "Did your department arrest a chemistry teacher named Inoue?"

"Inoue? Chemistry teacher?" The director was a little confused at first. It took him a while to remember who this person was and why he was arrested. He immediately asked nervously, "Do you... know him?"

Damn it, the director actually called to inquire about it personally. No wonder a mere chemistry teacher dared to beat up the principal. It turns out he must be a powerful person with a background.

"Now I'm asking you." Fujimoto Takaei did not answer his question, "Why did you arrest him?"

"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. I was also entrusted by someone..." The director did not dare to hide anything and quickly told him everything the principal had asked him to do.

After hearing this, Aoyama Hidenobu and Fujimoto Takaei were relieved but also speechless. How could a gang leader be detained for beating someone?

If word gets out, the rival gangs will laugh at him for a year.

"Release him immediately." said Fujimoto Takaei.

"Wait!" Aoyama Hidenobu suddenly spoke up, and said in a deep voice, "We can't just let him go like this."

He suddenly thought of a good idea that would allow Nobi Kura Ken to gain Inoue's deep trust.

That night, the director of the North Police Station, following Aoyama Hidenobu's suggestion, ordered his subordinates to take better care of Inoue without increasing the price, causing him to be tortured and humiliated in the detention room with no one to turn to.

As a teacher who is powerless.

How cruel was this experience for him?
If he hadn't been holding his breath and was even more afraid of being shot, he would have wanted to confess that he was the creator of the new type of ice poison in exchange for better treatment.

He didn't know how the night passed.

I opened my eyes in a daze and it was the next morning.

"Inoue, come out, you can go now."

The door of the detention room was opened by the guard, and a word like the sound of nature fell into his ears.

He, who was originally a little confused, woke up instantly, his slightly closed eyes widened, and he didn't care about the pain that felt like his bones were falling apart, and he didn't even have time to think about why he was let go. He crawled out.

He didn't want to stay in this damn place for even a quarter of an hour.

"Teacher! Teacher, how are you?"

A young man with a crew cut rushed forward and supported Inoue.

"You...you are..." Inoue recognized this man as Nobi Kura Ken's subordinate, but could not remember his name.

"Brother Nobi is here too, but he can't come in to pick you up because of his status." The crew-haired young man whispered, and then he looked at the wounds on his body and couldn't suppress his anger, "How did you get hurt like this! These bastards!"

As he said this, he was about to let go of Inoue to settle accounts with other prisoners in the detention room, but was stopped by Inoue.

"Go first." Inoue said gritting his teeth.

Although he had many doubts in his mind, being able to escape was already a pleasant surprise, and he didn't want to create any more trouble.

The young man with a crew cut could only glare at the prisoners indignantly and help Inoue walk out.

The two men walked out of the North Police Station and got into a white six-seater SUV with deep window film at the door. Nobita Ken and two other brothers hid inside.

"Teacher! How did he get injured like this!" Looking at Inoue's bruised face, Nobita Ken's eyes widened, as if he was asking the king to humiliate his subject and let him die, he was shocked and angry.

"Let's not talk about it." Inoue shook his head and didn't want to talk about the humiliation of last night. Instead, he asked the question in his heart, "Nobi, how did you know I was here?"

Logically speaking, no one in the Miyazaki family would know that he had been arrested and was being held here.

"It's a coincidence that this happened. You can tell the teacher about it." Nobita Ken looked at the young man with a crew cut.

"Hi!" The crew-haired young man responded, and then slowly said, "Big brother took us to a restaurant for breakfast. Unexpectedly, a group of police officers came in and sat down not far from us. While they were chatting, they mentioned a person they had arrested last night. One of them described his appearance and Big brother thought he looked a bit like you. After leaving the breakfast restaurant, he immediately called you, but found that he couldn't get through no matter what. Big brother became more certain of his guess."

"Based on the police car parked in front of the breakfast shop, we knew they were police officers from the North Police Department. I went in to investigate and finally confirmed that it was you who was arrested last night. But because it was just assault, which is not a serious crime, my brother paid to bail you out."

It sounds a bit coincidental, but it is just a coincidence.

If the young man with the crew cut had not heard the policemen's discussion with his own ears, he would not have believed it.

"I see. Fortunately, fortunately." Inoue sighed, this is really a blessing in disguise. Then he looked at Nobita Ken and sighed, "You must have spent a lot of money to save me."

He knew very well that he was detained not simply because of beating someone, but because the principal used his connections to retaliate against him. To get him out, Nobita Ken must have spent more than just bail money, he also had to bribe the police.

The money used for bribery was not a small amount. After all, the police chief who arrested him didn't even give him the chance to pay to avoid disaster. It was obvious that he had to bribe higher-level leaders.

This incident taught him a lesson, that is, he cannot be too cautious and must have a trustworthy confidant. If it had not been for chance that Nobi Kura Ken rescued him, the consequences would have been disastrous.

As for the selection of confidants...

Inoue looked at Nobita Ken in front of him with burning eyes, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, "Thanks to you this time, let's go to my house, I will cook for you to make up for the fact that you didn't have a good breakfast today."

Among the current senior executives of the Miyazaki family.

Nobita Ken is a wanted fugitive with an outstanding record and does not take drugs. This time he saved himself by chance, so he is completely trustworthy!
