Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 148: Daily Life of the Special Mission Department

The layout of the Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Division's Special Investigation Division office is different from that of the Investigation Division 1.

The office of the Special Mission Department is located next to the Second Organized Crime Countermeasures Office. It has a superior geographical location. The office is no more than 40 to 50 square meters in size. Department Head Minami Watanabe sits alone at a large curved workstation, while Acting Department Head Masayoshi Okada sits next to her at an L-shaped workstation. As for the seconded Ikeda Erena, her workstation can only be placed in the corner of the office.

Sosetsu Uesugi's workstation is in a small room in the office, which is less than 20 square meters. Watanabe Eiji did fulfill Sosetsu Uesugi's request for an independent office, but it was not big enough, so he also specially sent a coffee machine.

Miss Minami bought several bags of the best Blue Mountain coffee beans. There is hot water in the Special Mission Department so that coffee can be made at any time. If the police from the Investigation Division 23 and the 102nd Precinct in the rd District of Tokyo need help from the Special Mission Department, they must come to the Special Mission Department in person to seek help. If Miss Minami disagrees, it will be difficult for them to meet Uesugi Sosetsu in person.

Only a direct order from the superior Criminal Department or a higher level Metropolitan Inspector or above can bypass Miss Minami and let Uesugi Sosetsu take the initiative to carry out the mission.

The establishment of the Special Mission Department lived up to expectations, and Uesugi Sosetsu solved a major case right from the start.

There were four nurses who graduated from the same nursing school, were roommates, and worked at the same hospital in Nerima.

Three of them were married and one was unmarried. The four of them were closely connected. The oldest senior among the four and also the "leader" found out at a gathering of four sisters that her husband had seduced her bestie, so she wanted to kill him. She said to the other three nurse classmates: "I didn't expect my husband to be such a frivolous scum. He is really hopeless. I might as well buy him insurance and kill him."

The four nurses discussed it and thought there was a way, so they first bought a high-value insurance for the husband of the oldest senior. The husband was known to be an alcoholic, so they mixed sleeping pills into the wine to make the husband fall asleep, and then injected a lethal dose of 596 ml of high-proof vodka directly into the husband's stomach through a syringe.

The husband cooperated and died of acute alcohol poisoning, and the four of them shared the insurance money worth 2000 million.

But the money was not enough, so the second sister's husband came into their sight.

This time it was sleeping pills again. Since the second husband usually did not drink and was unlikely to suffer from acute alcohol poisoning, the four sisters used a syringe to inject air into the victim's veins. When the air enters the cerebral blood vessels, it will cause cerebral infarction. Sure enough, the second husband suddenly fell into a critical condition. Not long after, as they wished, the victim died. The deceased was diagnosed with "acute heart failure" and "death of illness."

The four sisters shared the 2800 million yen insurance money as they wished.

The money was not enough to spend and was squandered after a few months.

It's okay. Three of the four sisters are married, and there's still a husband! It's time for him to contribute his value.

The old routine, sleeping pills mixed into the wine, and strong whiskey injected into the syringe.

As a result, the third husband had an accident. This husband had a high alcohol tolerance and he died of alcohol poisoning from a liter of high-proof whiskey. After several hours, it was almost dawn, but the husband was still alive.

The four sisters were a little panicked and decided to make full use of their medical knowledge. They injected water into their husband's body, causing hemolysis of his red blood cells. He soon became critically ill and was rushed to the hospital in emergency, where he died shortly afterwards.

However, this time, they did not get the insurance money.

Because of the continuous similar incidents that puzzled Nippon Life Insurance and the local police station, the continuous sudden illness deaths of the husbands attracted the attention of the insured company Nippon Life Insurance Company. Moreover, this time the four sisters felt that the previous insurance coverage was too low, and the few million each time was not enough to spend, so this time they bought 200 million yen of insurance for the third husband in one go.

The local police station was suspicious and classified the cause of death as "unnatural death", so Nippon Life Insurance proposed to come to the Metropolitan Police Department to ask Uesugi Sosetsu to perform an autopsy.

Autopsy, we only recognize Uesugi Sosetsu!
Uesugi Sosetsu was ordered to go out, and he immediately saw the problem through deduction and the Dead Soul Contract.

According to Uesugi Sosetsu's judgment, the police investigated the matter backwards and found that there was something fishy about the deaths of the previous two husbands. However, the four sisters were all nurses and had connections inside the hospital, colluding with the doctors to issue death certificates. The previous two husbands were cremated at the speed of light, leaving no evidence.

However, thanks to Uesugi Muneyuki's sharp judgment and his insistence that there was something fishy about the two previous sudden deaths from illness, the police followed these clues all the way back, and the doctor at the hospital where the death certificate was issued finally admitted it after being questioned. The truth of this joint serial murder case was revealed, shocking the entire Tokyo, and all the front-page headlines of the day were about this bizarre case.

These four good sisters were called the "Four Sisters of Revelation" by the Asahi Shimbun. They face the maximum sentence of death or life imprisonment.

The new Special Mission Department dealt a heavy blow to everyone. In addition to the four Apocalypse sisters, at least five doctors had their medical licenses revoked.

The Metropolitan Police Department immediately promoted this incident as a major selling point and held a press conference. Since then, the Metropolitan Police Department's Special Mission Unit has begun to enter the vision of Tokyo residents.

Oh! It turns out that Dr. Uesugi has officially joined the Metropolitan Police Department!

Special mission department? Super department!
This is our super forensic doctor Uesugi-san! He is so kind and shining. Do you have such a Uesugi? In the Special Mission Department, Miss Minami was handling official business. Inspector Okada was holding a cup of coffee. From a distance, he saw Ikeda Erina checking the price of a Toyota commuter car online, so he smiled and said, "Ikeda-san, don't hesitate. Toyota cars are quite cheap now. A Corolla only costs 250 million yen. Buy it."

"... Let me see if it's really necessary." Ikeda Erena spends most of her time in the office in a daze or playing on the computer. She knows nothing about clerical work and she's totally out of her league with receiving people. But she doesn't need to worry about these things. Miss Minami positions her as Uesugi Sosetsu's bodyguard, driver, assistant and...bed partner.

She has completed these tasks very well. Since she came into being, Uesugi Sosetsu has not gone out to find anyone to connect with for five months. All his energy has been focused on her.

Ikeda Erena herself is quite proud of this. She can feel Uesugi Sosetsu's infatuation with her, and she is deeply immersed in the joy of this double harvest of career and love. Ever since she and Uesugi Sosetsu got together, her temperament has changed with time. Her tall and sexy figure has become more magnificent, and the arrogant and indifferent iceberg seems to have melted. The Iberian hotness flows secretly between her lively brown eyes. The women's suit of the same color as her short black hair and the black stockings under the uniform trousers are like a solid armor to hide the passion and pressure when she is alone with Uesugi Sosetsu in private. The sharp sound of her commuter high heels stepping on the floor always makes every policeman nervous about her arrival.

What’s even more interesting is that before she had a relationship with Uesugi Sosetsu, all the male police officers in the Metropolitan Police Department hated her, feared her, and stayed away from her.

However, after Miss Minami spread the word that Erena was specifically assigned to the Metropolitan Police Department by Uesugi Sosetsu, which was almost a clear statement that the two were having an affair, Erena was able to greet and make friends with people from the Metropolitan Police Department normally. Those male police officers were no longer afraid of her or stayed away from her and could communicate with her normally because she already had a "master".

The same goes for Inspector Okada. When he first joined the Special Mission Unit, he was terribly afraid of Erena. But since he learned about the relationship between Erena and Uesugi Sosetsu, he is not only no longer afraid, he even dares to joke with Erena.

"Ikeda, if you buy it, it's just right for picking up Uesugi to go to get off work every day." Miss Minami is the main person in charge of handling various paperwork, reports, coordinating various departments, and helping Uesugi Sosetsu review various assistance arrangements. She is still dressed in the standard spring police uniform, flesh-colored stockings and high heels. Hearing the two people joking, she poked her head out from behind the computer screen.

"Uesugi won't give me the key...I can't enter the tower!" When talking about this, Ikeda Erena's lips immediately pouted.

Four months have passed. The little girl from Hokkaido has been living with Zong Xue for four months! Do you know how I have been living these four months? Every time I go to his house, I have to see that little face that is full of black air and looks unwelcome! When he and I were making out in the bedroom, there was an extra person in the house!
He just wouldn't give me the key!

"Hehe~" Seeing that the former troublemaker, police killer Ikeda Erena was completely subdued by Uesugi Sosetsu, Miss Minami and Inspector Okada both laughed. For a moment, the Special Mission Department was filled with a happy atmosphere.

"If you want it, come and get it yourself, based on your performance." Uesugi Sosetsu came out of the office and said with a smile, "You already know this rule."

"I knew you would say that. Just wait, I will use my performance to make you hand over the key obediently. I promise." Ikeda Erena really wanted that key.

"Then I'm looking forward to it." Uesugi Sosetsu smiled, then he looked at Miss Minami.

"We found a member who died of unnatural causes in Sumida District." Miss Minami selected tasks for him: "It's possible that he was murdered."

"Okay."

…………

At the same time, the Metropolitan Police Department searched the office of the first section chief.

"The professor's wife from the University of Tokyo is missing?" said Kenzaburo Oshima, the new head of the Investigation Section 1, in surprise.

Kenzaburo Oshima was tall and slightly fat, with a slicked-back hair. His cheeks were sagging due to his age, and he had a pair of big ears and small eyes, which made him look similar to a large dog called the Neapolitan Mastiff (also with sagging cheeks and a pair of big ears and small eyes). Therefore, he was nicknamed "Shar-Pei" (in fact, Shar-Pei and Neapolitan Mastiff are not the same breed, it was purely a wrong name, but it cannot be changed now).

"Yes, his wife is missing, and Professor Tsuda and his daughter came to our office in person to report the case, so I think it may be necessary for our office to intervene." Section Chief Terai opposite bowed respectfully.

"Since this is a matter related to the University of Tokyo, we must take it seriously." Section Chief Oshima nodded with great interest: "I understand. I will arrange for someone to investigate. Thank you, Terai!"

"Thank you very much!"

"You're quite clever, Terai, for coming to tell me about this to give me face!" The Shar-Pei said happily, "Sure enough, only our non-professional group can appreciate each other like this!"

"It's what we should do." Section Chief Terai was also excited.

"Let's assign this matter to Xiangsaka from the First Department." After careful consideration, Section Chief Oshima said seriously, "The First Department is the face of our First Investigation Division. If we don't make some progress, the limelight of our First Investigation Division will be taken away by the Special Mission Department!"

"This time, it's our turn as the non-professional team to put up a good fight!"
