Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 377, Uesugi is here!
Upon hearing the name Uesugi Muneyuki, Watanabe Eiji's expression was quite amused; the Superintendent General of Police was both cautious and pleased.

After a series of major cases, Uesugi Muneyuki's name was etched into the minds of people all over Japan, or at least in the Kanto and Tohoku regions (Kansai people naturally like to do the opposite of Kanto people, while the Tohoku region is a conservative stronghold of the Han Chinese). Therefore, when they encounter any problems that they cannot solve, or believe that the existing results are not the truth, the first name that pops into their minds is Uesugi Muneyuki. Only Uesugi Muneyuki, because his repeated impartial enforcement of the law, fearlessness of the powerful and the pressure, has already won the affirmation of half the country.

Even when Suo Masao thought the Metropolitan Police Department's preliminary investigation results were not what he wanted, his first thought was to find Uesugi Muneyuki.

Call Uesugi! Call Uesugi!
However, as Superintendent General of Police, Eiji Watanabe had his own concerns.

The Special Missions Unit was a special department that he personally built and trained, but now it seems to have become too big to handle. Not to mention, it's already crammed with a lot of people, and after the new year, the son of Managing Director Nango of Mitsubishi UFJ Bank will also be joining the company. This department was easy to set up, but now it's almost impossible to shut it down. Watanabe Eiji's control over the Special Missions Unit is limited to his father-daughter relationship with Watanabe Minami and the personal loyalty of his adopted son, Uesugi Muneyuki.

So, to what extent is Uesugi Muneyuki's loyalty? That's hard to say.

Eiji Watanabe couldn't help but recall the past in South Korea—after the May 16 coup, Park Chung-hee, in order to undermine the existing parliamentary system, formed the Yushin Government, establishing a prime minister and various departments. To undermine the prime minister and various departments, he established a chief of staff. To undermine the chief of staff, Kim Kye-won, he established the Central Intelligence Agency. To decentralize the power of the head of the Central Intelligence Agency, he established the Capital Security Bureau, the Special Operations Bureau, and the Security Office. To undermine the head of the Central Intelligence Agency, Kim Jae-gyu, he established the Security Office. In the end, the head of the Security Office, Cha Ji-cheol, became the one closest to Park Chung-hee among all the layers of undermining and consolidation—but Cha Ji-cheol himself was a rough, illiterate, and reckless man.

This is why Watanabe Eiji pretended not to know that Uesugi Muneyuki had many lovers and chose to ignore it. The Superintendent General of Police has begun to realize that he cannot completely suppress Uesugi Muneyuki himself and needs to change his thinking. Cooperation and a close alliance between adoptive father and adopted son is the right way.

For police officers, solving cases is the only truth; nothing else matters.

But he can control the Special Missions Department, and the next Superintendent General will have a headache dealing with this unwieldy behemoth.

But upon closer reflection, Watanabe Eiji wondered, "Is this bad news? Isn't this good news for me?"

Well, let's trust in the wisdom of future generations!
Eiji Watanabe's prolonged silence made Masao Suo feel somewhat guilty.

Did the Metropolitan Police Department find out that I was the mastermind behind the "Weekly Bunshun" attack?
That's impossible! The only person who knew about this, the Special Commissioner of Shinjin, has already died of heart failure caused by a myocardial infarction!
"What's wrong, Director Watanabe? Is there a problem?" Suo Masao's attitude was slightly firm: "Or do you think my son is not good enough for the Special Missions Division?"

"No... Lord Suo, the thing is..." Watanabe Eiji was very shrewd, and he said tactfully, "But... the current state of Uesugi Forensic Inspector..."

Eiji Watanabe slyly stated that Muneyuki Uesugi has resigned from Tokyo University of Medical Science and Dental College, but has not officially joined the university yet, so the Special Missions Department is currently inactive, and there's nothing I can do about it!

Sure enough, upon hearing this news, Suo Masao also felt that the situation was troublesome.

Yes, in the eyes of the members of Congress, only Uesugi Muneyuki has the ability, the willingness, and the courage to continue the investigation.

After thinking for a long time, Zhou Fangzhengxiong asked in a low voice, "So if Tokyo University lets Uesugi, the forensic officer, process the enrollment and onboarding procedures tomorrow, can the Special Missions Department immediately join the Special Investigations Headquarters?"

“Of course!” Watanabe Eiji’s eyes lit up.

"Alright, then have Uesugi Muneyuki go to Tokyo University tomorrow morning to complete his enrollment and onboarding procedures! I want to see him at the Special Investigation Headquarters by tomorrow afternoon at the latest!"

After hanging up the phone, Suo Masao remained silent for a long time before calling the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare: "Minister Shimazaki! I have no choice but to ask for your permission!"

A moment later, he immediately called Hamada, the executive director who was about to take over as president of the University of Tokyo: "The Suo clan in the west is going to die out!!!"

That very evening, Uesugi Muneyuki immediately received a call from the president of the University of Tokyo, Komiyama.

"After unanimous approval by the University of Tokyo Board of Trustees, Uesugi-kun, you have been officially admitted to the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Tokyo as a direct-entry doctoral student and will also serve as a part-time clinical research physician in the Department of Forensic Medicine at the University of Tokyo Hospital. Your annual salary is 700 million yen, and your tuition is fully waived. This may seem obvious, but I still have to ask you: are you willing to accept this offer?"

“I accept the appointment!” Uesugi Muneyuki said earnestly.

"Very good, report to the University of Tokyo tomorrow! And complete the onboarding procedures for the Department of Forensic Medicine at the University of Tokyo Hospital!" University of Tokyo President Komiyama said meaningfully, "Some things can't wait!"

"Yes!"

Uesugi Muneyuki put down the phone, a strange sense of absurdity washing over him.

Because he was a troublemaker, the University of Tokyo had always had doubts about his admission and employment. In the end, it was unexpected that Suo Masao would use all his connections to get him in.

Does this guy even know that Mai-senpai and I did this together? I'm investigating myself?
How the hell am I supposed to check this?
Uesugi Muneyuki found it quite strange, and there was an indescribable dark humor to it.

"What's wrong?" Miss Minami was at home today, wrapped in a large, bright red chunky knit turtleneck dress that reached her calves, creating a gentle curve. The turtleneck accentuated her delicate jawline and swan-like neck, adding a touch of serene elegance. To ward off the January chill, Minami had chosen thick, dark gray wool-blend tights. The thickness of over 120D ensured absolute warmth, while the dark gray conveyed a sense of composure, creating a soft contrast with the bright red knit dress and visually making her legs appear even more slender and delicate.

A loosely draped shawl was draped over her shoulders, the cuffs casually rolled up a few times, creating an effortlessly lazy atmosphere. A thin, dark brown leather belt was gently tied around her waist, outlining her waistline and preventing the overall look from being too bulky. On her gray silk feet were a pair of fluffy light gray plush slippers, softly wrapping around her ankles and seamlessly connecting with thick tights, extending warmth from her feet to her entire body.

"The University of Tokyo notified me to go and complete the enrollment and onboarding procedures tomorrow," Uesugi Muneyuki complained after hanging up the phone.

"Pfft!" Miss Minami was amused: "You're all all talk and no action, Muneyuki, guess what it is?"

"Isn't it all about setting up the Special Investigation Headquarters?" Uesugi Muneyuki couldn't help but laugh. "The Special Missions Division is about to start operating again! Commander! Give the order!"

"Yoshi~~" Minami exclaimed, "Ikeda, the junior officer! Reorganize the troops and make an imperial assessment! Asuka, the concubine, hand over your duties as a sankin (attendant), no written notice required!"

"What nonsense!" Uesugi Muneyuki grinned mischievously as he swept Minami-dono up in his arms and placed her on his lap. "I think you deserve the Shogun's judgment! Minami-dono, your audiences always last a quarter of an hour?"

"Ugh!" Minami cried out in alarm, quickly curling up in Uesugi Muneyuki's arms, crouching down and begging for mercy, while stuffing a pair of gray-stockinged feet with pink nail polish into Uesugi Muneyuki's hands: "Here, take these first, we'll talk about the rest after dinner!"

Uesugi Muneyuki, of course, had no intention of coming right now; he smiled and nodded in agreement.

Minami is delicate and afraid of the cold, while Erina is strong and afraid of the heat. Asuka, born in Hokkaido, is actually quite cold-resistant, but she has a painful memory of the cold. Her own home is truly a place where many women are involved.

However, given this incident, it seems our trip to Disneyland will have to be postponed for now.

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

At 8:00 AM the next morning, in Shibuya Ward, Tokyo, under pressure from Masao Suo, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Ebisu High-Class Gym Heavy Equipment Accident Special Investigation Headquarters was officially established.

Sugishita Ukyo, the head of the First Investigation Division, was personally ordered to serve as the head of the Special Investigation Headquarters and personally arrived at the scene to begin the search. Of the 200 police officers dispatched by the Metropolitan Police Department, Inspector Kosaka of the First Division, Inspector Kashiwagi of the Third Division, and Inspector Itami of the Fifth Division were responsible for the main search, while many police officers transferred from local police stations were responsible for peripheral searches.

The Special Investigation Headquarters was packed with people. Sugishita Ukyo, the head of the Special Investigation Headquarters, looked at the preliminary results with a puzzled expression.

A report from the University of Tokyo Hospital stated that the doctor wrote in the "mechanism of injury" section: "A skateboard-shaped heavy object struck the perineum from below."

Pathology Department Note: "Trace amounts of dimethyl silicone oil (a component of lubricants used in fitness equipment) were detected at the wound site."

Forensic examination revealed Kobe beef sauce in the patient's wounds, and indicated that high alcohol levels and the presence of performance-enhancing drugs were detected in the bodily fluids.

After reviewing all the reports and intelligence, Section Chief Sugishita Ukyo concluded that this was most likely an accident!

However, around 11 a.m., Masao Suo, who arrived at the scene, refused to believe it. He grabbed the biomechanical graph and tore it to shreds: "Torque? My son is not a car part!"

"Someone is definitely behind this! Absolutely! Someone, someone is afraid that Ryohei will become prime minister in the future!"

"When will the Special Missions Unit arrive? Where is Uesugi? Where is the Special Missions Unit? I don't trust a single one of you! I want to see Uesugi! Bring Uesugi here!"

Just then, the congressman's secretary suddenly pushed open the door of the Special Investigation Headquarters. He ran at full speed, stumbled a few times in a flustered manner, and finally tripped over the cables on the ground. He ended up sliding down the floor tiles and kneeling down in front of the congressman.

"Uesugi is here!!!"

With this call, Uesugi Muneyuki, the Special Missions Department forensic officer who had officially completed his enrollment and onboarding procedures at the University of Tokyo, and the rest of the Special Missions Department staff made their official entrance.

With Uesugi Muneyuki and Watanabe Minami entering together, a strong signal was sent throughout the entire Japanese police force.

Special Missions have officially returned to an active state from an inactive state!
