Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 462, The Mastermind!
As mentioned earlier, in Japan, yakuza groups are currently in a very awkward position.

Many people like to say that Japan is the only country that recognizes the legality of yakuza groups, but this is actually wrong. Japan does not recognize "legal gangs," but rather is forced to recognize "freedom of association" under its constitution, thus making it impossible to forcibly designate yakuza groups as "illegal organizations." After all, yakuza groups won't openly tell you that they are yakuza groups. So what? Kakuei Tanaka can form the Koshiyama-kai, but I can't form the Sumiyoshi-kai?
Under these circumstances, yakuza groups were legal organizations, but with the enactment of the Yakuza Countermeasures Law, these people were also forced into the sewers.

When the Metropolitan Police Department's Special Operations Division appears and immediately issues a red alert against yakuza groups under the pretext of "assisting fugitives" and "harboring criminals," the Metropolitan Police Department's heavy-handed crackdown is also legal.

According to Articles 103 and 104 of the Japanese Penal Code, police can conduct lawful searches and make temporary emergency arrests if they suspect any executive or member of a yakuza group of failing to report such activities.

Japanese police must presume innocence for ordinary people, but for the Yakuza, they can presume guilt outright.

Moreover, once a violent group is involved in a case, the police can immediately "instruct" all banks, real estate developers, construction companies, hotels, convenience stores, and even markets that have business dealings with the organization to immediately sever all transactions with them.

This behavior is completely legal, and the violent groups cannot gain any sympathy from society.

The police will not negotiate with violent groups, because that would be tantamount to acknowledging that the violent groups are "legitimate self-governing bodies" qualified to engage with them, nor will they "cooperate" with the violent groups. The police will only hint to the violent groups, "You'd better do what you want," through the two methods mentioned above.

Sumiyoshi immediately informed the Metropolitan Police Department of Kurosaki Ryuji's whereabouts through a third-party lawyer. They also provided evidence showing that Kurosaki Ryuji was just someone who liked to come to their store and was not a member of their organization. They said that they had behaved themselves and asked to be let go. Then, the chairman, the young leader, and the younger brother leader respectfully escorted the police inspector from the gang to the door.

And so, the Metropolitan Police Department's operation began.

It was early morning, and the sky was just beginning to lighten.

The shop was filled with smoke, and the gamblers lay trembling on the floor in fear. Ryuji Kurosaki sat at a mahjong table in the corner, a pile of banknotes in front of him, a cigarette dangling from his lips, his face contorted with rage.

When the police officers suddenly appeared and pinned him to the ground, handcuffing him behind his back, he was initially shocked, but then erupted into a furious struggle and curses.

"Damn it! What are you doing?! What have I done wrong?!" Ryuji Kurosaki roared, like a trapped wild beast: "I came here to play mahjong, what do you want?"

"Kurosaki Ryuji! You are suspected of murdering Okada Miki and Koizumi Ryosuke at XX Apartment and robbing them! You are now under arrest according to the law!" Kashiwagi Jin shouted sternly, his voice filled with suppressed anger.

Upon hearing his crime exposed, Kurosaki Ryuji's struggles paused for a moment, a ferocious glint flashing across his face before he broke into a twisted laugh, a crazed laugh born of despair.

"Ha! So what if I did it?! Those two bitches deserved it!" He struggled to lift his head, his gaze sweeping over the angry police officers around him, especially Kashiwagi Jin and Inspector Shimano from the Fourth Division: "That gold-digging bitch forced me to do this! I just wanted to get back the money she owed me! Not only did she refuse to pay, but she even dared to send that pretty boy to deal with me?! Bah! They forced me to do this! I didn't want to kill anyone! I just wanted the money!"

His words were full of shameless self-justification. Then, as if he felt it wasn't provoking these police officers who were defending their "heroic" colleagues enough, he revealed an extremely lewd and malicious smile, licked his lips, and deliberately shouted at the top of his lungs:

"But... that 'hero inspector's' wife... tsk tsk tsk... tastes fucking amazing! The expression on her face before she died... hehehe... worth it!"

This sentence was like lighting a powder keg!
"You beast!!" "Shut up!!" All the police officers at the scene instantly had their eyes wide with rage! Especially Kashiwagi!

Thinking of the injustice and suffering that Okada Masayoshi endured, the tragic state of Okada Miki before her death, and hearing Kurosaki so vulgarly insult the dead and desecrate the wife of his comrade, Kashiwagi Jin's pent-up anger could no longer be contained!

The police officers exchanged glances and came up with an idea.

In the brief, dark corner before Kashiwagi roughly escorted Kurosaki out of the shop and shoved him into the police car (avoiding the main angle of the body camera), several strong detectives could no longer hold back. Several precise and heavy punches and knee strikes, delivered with thunderous fury, landed heavily on Kurosaki Ryuji's abdomen and ribs!
“Baka yarou, I’m coming too!” another policeman couldn’t resist.

"You bastard! If it weren't now... if it were before, if this were the United States... you wouldn't have gotten away with this so easily!" Several police officers took turns delivering several stabs to your face.

If it were any other ordinary person, the police would absolutely not dare to do such a thing.

But in Yakuza... even in the marginal Yakuza, the gray areas in law enforcement are much larger. To put it bluntly, if there are no cameras and you want to report the Metropolitan Police Department for violent law enforcement, the lawyer will take the case and see...

Oh ho, Yakuza, oh ho, murder, oh ho, and the victim was a police officer's family member.

Sorry, I can't answer.

"Ugh—!" Kurosaki's maniacal laughter instantly turned into painful groans and coughs, his body curling up like a shrimp. Kashiwagi grabbed his hair and, in a voice only the two of them could hear, growled coldly in his ear: "Scum! Get ready to go to hell!"

This is an unrecorded but tacitly understood "extra hospitality" provided by disciplined forces in a fit of extreme anger to the most despicable individuals.

Many people witnessed this scene, but no one thought the police had done anything wrong, and none of the police officers intended to speak out.

This is the tacit understanding within an organization.

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

After being arrested and taken to the Metropolitan Police Department, Ryuji Kurosaki initially tried to argue his way out of trouble. However, as the Metropolitan Police Department presented evidence and inferences, Kurosaki muttered a few curses, admitted his bad luck, and had no choice but to confess.

It turns out that Ryuji Kurosaki was Miki Okada's ex-boyfriend! The two first met at night school in a telecommunications high school. The combination of the cool boy and the spirited girl was a match made in heaven. In particular, Ryuji Kurosaki owned a very cool and beautiful motorcycle and was willing to spend money, which made Miki like him very much. Their relationship was normal.

However, after Okada Miki graduated, because she was very beautiful and soon had the opportunity to experience the prosperity of Tokyo, the "ghost boy" persona became less appealing, so she took the initiative to break off contact with Kurosaki Ryuji.

As a member of the Oni-Spark Motorbike Gang, Ryuji Kurosaki possesses considerable counter-surveillance and fighting skills. He has always harbored feelings for Miki Okada, and like a venomous snake, he has been lurking in the shadows, relentlessly searching for her. Okada Masayoshi's injury and Miki's disgrace have given him an unprecedented opportunity for a "big deal." His goal is not merely to extort money, but to control Miki, his "cash cow," indefinitely.

Of course, in order to keep him in check, Miki had sex with him several times that day and afterwards.

The hero inspector's wife is amazing! She's so wonderful to Kurosaki, much better than the young, frivolous girl he used to date. Just thinking about how she's now the inspector's wife makes Kurosaki incredibly happy.

Since Okada Masayoshi's rescue was exposed, Kurosaki followed and observed the apartment building to find out the location and blind spots of all the surveillance cameras in and around it. He paid particular attention to the surveillance coverage of the emergency staircase, back door passage and garbage collection point.

"I didn't want to kill anyone! Not at all!" Kurosaki complained sharply. "I just came to ask for money! Miki promised to give me five million, but she hasn't given it to me yet! So I thought I'd go to her that morning to ask for the money!"

"So you discovered that Okada... uh, Mrs. Okada and bartender Koizumi were having an affair?" Kashiwagi Jin sat opposite him, asking in an equally stern voice, "Did they threaten you? Or did they take action?"

He understood, he understood everything!

Authentic mystery is the best!

"That's right... After I opened the door using special methods, I found that bitch Miki was having an affair. Heh... Hero Inspector is really... Well, anyway, I'm here to collect the money." Kurosaki said disdainfully to Kashiwagi Jin, "Miki is telling me that the money hasn't arrived yet, but that Koizumi is already scared out of his wits. While I was talking to Miki, he probably went to the kitchen to get a knife, intending to..."

I understand, I understand everything!

Kashiwagi understood again.

Koizumi, the bartender, displayed a cowardly hysteria at the crucial moment. He was so afraid of being discovered that he instinctively wanted to kill Kurosaki to silence him!
But Kurosaki, a fringe member of a yakuza group and a former biker gang fighter, was not afraid of this. He casually grabbed a brass ornament from his home and smashed it into the back of Koizumi's head, killing him instantly.

"He killed someone!" Okada Miki exclaimed in shock. She took out her phone to call the police and threatened him to stand still. Kurosaki was enraged. Seeing the fruit knife that Koizumi had dropped on the ground, a vicious plan to frame him was instantly formed.

He quickly killed Miki with a fruit knife, staged the scene as a fight between lovers, collected a little cash, and quietly left the garbage room again, avoiding all surveillance cameras.

After leaving the building, he found a secluded, unmonitored riverbed and sank his canvas bag, along with his jacket, shoe covers, gloves, and brass ornaments inside, into the water. These items made it difficult to trace him back to himself.

Unexpectedly, Okada returned at that very moment!
Instead of pretending to be an adulterous couple locked in a life of love and hate, they ended up framing Okada Masayoshi himself!
At this point, the truth behind this case of two deaths in one family has finally come to light.

However, Uesugi Muneyuki, who was present at the scene, realized that there was something wrong with it.

There are two crucial parts that Kurosaki didn't explain clearly!
