Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 421, Operation Code Name: Black Shield!

P.S.: I was dragged to another blind date today, and I'm speechless. This blind date was absolutely terrible. The funniest thing was that the other person was supposed to arrive at 6 pm, but they didn't show up until 7 pm. They booked the hotel, set the time, and even suggested the blind date. In the end, my dad happily paid the bill, thinking he was making a good impression, while I didn't even get to eat my fill... The other person wasn't serious at all either; they came in slippers and without makeup. Ugh, I'm speechless.

PS2: Due to unforeseen circumstances, today's update will be a combined 4600 words, only one chapter. I'm exhausted, frustrated, and irritable. I'm so angry!

Uesugi Muneyuki proposed a very dangerous plan.

His meaning was to let Meisa Kashiwagi go find the Yamato armor, while he would go find it himself.

Why are you looking for Yamato armor?
They threatened Yamato Armor with the claim that their bulletproof vests were faulty, demanding money!

This is a suicidal mission, and there is no doubt that the icy, half-blood beauty will have to take a huge risk for it. But how can you catch a tiger cub without entering the tiger's den? And if she doesn't try her best to save herself, how will Uesugi Muneyuki protect her?

After such a big incident, can Meisa Kashiwagi, as the head of the Equipment Management Department, just deny it by saying "I don't know"?

How could that be? She can't escape such a huge burden, but she can't carry it either. Not to mention Kashiwagi Meisa, even Watanabe Eiji wouldn't dare to take on such a huge burden.

However, they don't have much time left, because as the Metropolitan Police Department begins to inspect the bulletproof vests, more and more people will know that there is a problem with the vests. Even with Eiji Watanabe's control over the Metropolitan Police Department, he said he could only control the situation for a maximum of 72 hours, or even just 48 hours.

Meisa Kashiwagi understood what Muneyuki Uesugi meant, and she knew that she had to do something at this time, but she also needed Muneyuki Uesugi to give her a guarantee.

What made her believe that Uesugi Muneyuki and the Metropolitan Police Department behind him wouldn't use her and then discard her? Wouldn't they cut ties with justice after things went wrong? Wouldn't they throw her away like trash?

“I will prove it to you.” Uesugi Muneyuki nodded with a smile. “Do you need me to prove it to you now, Madam?”

Meisa Kashiwagi's breath hitched for a moment, a hot and complex feeling instantly spreading throughout her body. She fully understood his intention. This was not only a promise to her, but also the most direct and naked expression of his love for her, a "proof" that cornered her, making her chest feel tight and her heart pound.

For the sake of benevolence... For the sake of benevolence!

He agreed, he promised that he would not take a single penny for all the credit for this bulletproof vest incident, but would instead give it all to her husband, Inspector Kashiwagi Jin, the head of the Second Division of the First Investigation Section of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department!

The operation known as "Black Shield" was directed by Jin. The plan to obtain clues by negotiating alone was also planned by Jin. In the end, it was also Jin Kashiwagi who exposed the conspiracy of the Yamato armor to the whole of Japan and even the world!
This would be a monumental achievement, no less significant than Uesugi Muneyuki's personal arrest of the ghost in Ikebukuro. It would not only allow Kashiwagi Jin to escape the shadow and punishment of the previous Fujitsu case, but might even allow him to advance further!
Uesugi Muneyuki willingly relinquished such a great achievement just to gain her... and her full cooperation.

Meisa Kashiwagi realized that she had no room or right to hesitate. Any hesitation or resistance would render the previous humiliation and the carefully designed scheme by Uesugi meaningless, and would completely close the door to that faint hope.

"Understood." Kashiwagi Meisa's voice remained steady, though she couldn't help feeling a little shy. She didn't look into Uesugi's eyes, but instead focused her gaze on the far end of the archives. The icy, half-blooded wife trembled uncontrollably: "Then... then prove it to me, okay, Uesugi?"

She turned and walked to the corner of the archives, where there was a single sofa chair for visitors.

"Yes, we need to hurry..." the icy beauty said timidly, her voice filled with sorrow and shame. "If we stay away for too long, people will suspect something!"

"Oh, madam, you are simply an angel!" Uesugi Muneyuki easily put his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear, "What about our agreement from last time?"

“This time, this time can be an exception…” Kashiwagi Meisa’s voice trembled as she tried to conceal her anticipation and eagerness: “After all, it’s all for Jin!”

"My dear wife, you are truly a good wife who thinks of her husband!"

"Ugh, stop talking, please, Uesugi, stop talking! If you want it... just hurry up!"

————This is the exception that applies this time————

Forty-five minutes later.

Uesugi Muneyuki gave Kashiwagi Meisa some more instructions on what to do before leaving. Before leaving, he assured Kashiwagi Meisa that he would protect the safety of the couple and promised not to sever ties with her afterward.

"Operation code name: Black Shield! It's up to you, Mingsha. After it's done, I will protect you and Kashiwagi. I swear to Vaishravana."

Meisa Kashiwagi did not answer. After Muneyuki Uesugi left the archives, she slowly stood up, took out a pair of brand-new 5D gray Wolford pantyhose from the package left behind by Muneyuki Uesugi, tore open the packaging, and found that the brand-new pantyhose were as thin as cicada wings and almost weightless. She lifted her leg and carefully put the amazingly thin pantyhose on her toes, then slowly smoothed them up. The thickness of 5D was almost equivalent to a second layer of skin. After putting them on, the color and fine texture of her leg skin were fully revealed, only reflecting an extremely faint, almost imperceptible silky sheen at certain angles.

The moment she put them on, she knew these stockings were top-of-the-line. They perfectly hugged every curve, highlighting the mixed-race, aloof housewife's leg advantages in a more subtle and dangerous way.

She then put on high heels, with black patent leather covering her feet.

Meisa Kashiwagi felt an unprecedented sense of peace.

Because Uesugi Muneyuki's proof was truly powerful and forceful!
Just now, Uesugi Muneyuki proved with his actions that he would not abandon her. Kashiwagi Meisa personally experienced his "honesty" and "determination" with her own body. Under Uesugi Muneyuki's powerful sincerity, the icy beauty chose to believe him.

She was still a little unsteady on her feet, but following Uesugi Muneyuki's instructions, she immediately contacted Yamato Armor.

This was not difficult for Meisa Kashiwagi, because as the head of the Equipment Management Department, she was qualified to liaise with Yamato Armor, and the other party readily agreed to the meeting.

Meisa Kashiwagi then told her husband, Jin Kashiwagi, about it.

Sure enough, the moment Kashiwagi Jin received the news, an indescribable joy welled up in the heart of the Metropolitan Police Department's star inspector!

We're going to get rich!

Oh no, I'm about to perform a monumental feat!
Inspector Mingxing, holding the report, trembled with excitement: "Mingsha! Where did you get this?"

"I got it from the forensic department." Seeing her husband's ecstatic expression, Meisa Kashiwagi's heart sank to the bottom.

She knew it.

Uesugi Muneyuki's judgment was entirely correct. Her husband was a slave to honor. He would not let go of any opportunity to gain fame and prestige, even if it offended many people or brought him greater disaster. But Kashiwagi Jin's justice was unwavering. He was not afraid of being smashed to pieces, and naturally, he cared even less about the people around him and those who supported him.

"Forensic department? That's strange. Didn't the forensic department report this to Uesugi and the others?" Kashiwagi Jin excitedly jumped up and down a few times in the hallway. "It actually ended up in your hands?"

“The forensic department is full of forensic experts, but they don’t know anything about firearms, so they came to me with this.” Kashiwagi Meisa nodded, her lips pressed together until they were pale. Finally, she managed to squeeze out a dry voice from her throat: “Jin, you should know how complicated this is. Please help me, save me, okay?”

"Of course! Such a big thing, you did a great job, Mingsha! Well done!" Kashiwagi waved the report in his hand excitedly, both angry and happy: "You've done a great job! Damn it! The bulletproof vest really had a problem! How did the country become like this? This department is really rotten from top to bottom!"

"Bulletproof vests are 'partners' for us police officers, someone we can entrust our lives to! But...it's a murder weapon! What...what is our police organization doing?"

"But don't worry, Meisa, the darkness within the police organization will begin with you and me, to be completely eradicated!" Kashiwagi Jin excitedly held up the report. "I'm going to find Chief Sugishita Ukyo right now!" Who is the silver bullet to destroy the dark organization? I am the silver bullet to destroy the dark organization!
If you, Uesugi Muneyuki, can turn the tide and capture Ghost, then I, Kashiwagi Jin, can also start with this bulletproof vest incident and wipe out the darkness within the organization!
Righteousness prevails! Justice is served!
With Kashiwagi in the First Division and Uesugi in the Special Mission, we, the two unparalleled heroes of the Metropolitan Police Department, carry the weight of the entire Tokyo Metropolitan Area's 23 wards, 26 cities, 5 towns, and 8 villages on our shoulders! Even Hachijojima Island basks in our glory!

"Great!" A hint of tenderness finally welled up in Kashiwagi's eyes as he looked at his wife.

This wife has finally come in handy! Hayakawa was right, she's a good woman, but...

Seeing her husband's excited expression, Kashiwagi Meisa could only manage a wry smile.

She didn't know how dark the police organization really was, but she had just experienced how bright it could be.

They're all inside her belly.

"Wait! Jin!" Kashiwagi Meisa said, following Uesugi Muneyuki's instructions, "A report alone is useless!"

"Hmm? Why didn't it work? With this report, the problem of the substandard bulletproof vests... Ah, I see, there must be someone in the headquarters connected to Yamato armor, hmm, this is troublesome!" Although Kashiwagi Jin was hot-blooded, impulsive, and had a strong sense of justice, he was still a graduate of the University of Tokyo's Gold Watch Division and wasn't entirely stupid. He immediately made a connection: "Is it Section Chief Ijuin (equipment section chief)? Or Inspector Sasaki? Department Chief Tanaka? Don't worry, we have the evidence. I'll go confront them right now and make sure they have nothing to say!"

After saying that, Bai Muren prepared to charge.

"Wait!!! Jin!!! Can you let me finish?" The former Metropolitan Police Department's "face" had no choice but to call out to Kashiwagi Jin again. She thought to herself, how come Uesugi knows Jin better than Jin himself? "I don't know either!"

"Huh?!" Kashiwagi Jin was getting impatient after being interrupted by his wife several times: "What does someone from the General Affairs Section know? Meisha, I'm glad you told me this, but you don't understand the operating logic of our police organization at all. You're not planning to do nothing, are you? I don't like that."

“I don’t know who’s connected to Yamato Armor either.” Kashiwagi Meisa thought to herself that Uesugi Muneyuki had really predicted all of Kashiwagi Jin’s reactions. Could these two be half-brothers? “So, Jin, I’ve already met with President Yamamoto of Yamato Armor. I plan to ask them for money!”

"You want money???" Bai Muren was taken aback.

"Yes, Jin, you must help me!" After saying that, Kashiwagi Meisa whispered to her husband about Uesugi Muneyuki's plan.

"Great idea!" Kashiwagi couldn't help but applaud after hearing it. "When are we going?"

"Now."

“Okay, I’ll go with you! This time, we must make Yamato Armor tell us everything!” Kashiwagi Jin was extremely satisfied with his wife’s performance.

He truly understood that this was the optimal solution, because even with an inspection report, Yamato Armor could simply pay compensation and apologize, and find a few scapegoats to escape justice.

On the contrary, if Meisa can uncover the underlying chain of interests and evidence of collusion between Yamato Armor and the Metropolitan Police Department, she can truly bring down the darkness of the Metropolitan Police Department and Yamato Armor in one fell swoop.

Strange, how did Mingsha come up with that idea?

Jin Kashiwagi was still a little confused, but this time it was Meisa Kashiwagi's turn to leave quickly.

"Hurry up, Jin, time is of the essence, delay will only lead to complications." Kashiwagi Meisa's voice still tried her best to remain calm, but if you listened carefully, you could detect a slight tremor, which was the exhaustion she was suppressing after experiencing pleasure and despair.

Her husband never considered her at all from beginning to end.

She didn't consider what she, as the head of the Equipment Management Department, would face if this matter were exposed, nor did she consider the danger of personally going to Yamato Armor to discuss the matter.

He was only thinking about making a great contribution this time.

Kashiwagi Jin, you're always thinking only of yourself.

Meisa Kashiwagi sighed deeply. She was just a non-professional female police officer in the General Affairs Section. What could she do?

At this point, we can only trust Uesugi Muneyuki.

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

Thirty minutes later, Meisa Kashiwagi, dressed in a standard winter three-piece suit and long-sleeved work clothes, met with President Yamamoto of Yamato Armor at the members-only bar "Mirage" in Ginza.

She recalled Uesugi Muneyuki's instructions, the persona he had set for her as "a beautiful and greedy woman."

While Kashiwagi Jin waited outside, Kashiwagi Meisa met the president of Yamato Armor Company, who had rushed over.

"Um, Section Chief Kashiwagi, what exactly happened with what you said about the Metropolitan Police Department's General Affairs Director Tanaka planning to cancel the exclusive designation of 'Yamato'?" President Yamamoto, who was probably in his fifties, had a buzz cut and was not tall, but unusually, he did not have the obesity typical of middle-aged men. Instead, he was quite strong. Upon seeing Kashiwagi Meisa, he couldn't wait to ask her the question.

The Metropolitan Police Department has been cooperating with Yamato Armor for 10 years, but now it has suddenly proposed to cancel the exclusive designation of Yamato Armor.

Did the Metropolitan Police Department discover something?
Meisa Kashiwagi looked at the astonished and inquisitive expression on President Yamamoto's face, and felt a chill in her heart, thinking, "Just as I expected."

"Indeed, the forensic department discovered some minor issues during the subsequent autopsy!" Meisa Kashiwagi smiled brightly, her tone slightly playful and probing: "Actually, your company's bulletproof vests aren't bulletproof at all, are they?"

"???!!!" President Yamamoto's expression changed: "What are you talking about? I don't understand! Our company has been cooperating with your agency for 10 years! There hasn't been a single problem! What do you mean by this, Section Chief? Do you think you can undermine the unbreakable cooperative relationship between our company and your agency?"

"I didn't mean to do this, but regarding the issue of your company's bulletproof vests not being bulletproof, I'm sorry, but if this gets exposed, I'll be kicked out too. So, let's join forces!" Kashiwagi Meisa took out a voice recorder and placed it on the table: "Although I'm a little embarrassed to say it, I'm really short of money lately, so I had no choice but to come to your company. Please forgive me!"

President Yamamoto looked at the recording pen on the table, his expression shifting slightly from a hint of panic and uncertainty to a look of understanding and embarrassment.

So they've come for the money. Well, she really doesn't get a share among these people, because there's no need to give her one too.

But if all you need is money, then that's much easier.

"I want five million," Meisa Kashiwagi said carefully. "Five million per year."

"Five million? Wow, that's no small sum!" President Yamamoto thought it was a reasonable offer, but he immediately pretended to be hesitant.

"I said... I want five million dollars! Every year!"
