Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 65, Uesugi's Promotion

Two flowers bloom, each with its own beauty. After finishing the case, Uesugi Sosetsu and Ikeda Erena can go back to rest, but the Metropolitan Police Department has more things to consider.

"Aren't you going back with us?" Minami Watanabe, the face of the Metropolitan Police Department, looked at Inspector Okada beside her in surprise.

"Miki wants to eat Shiba Ukai's moon tofu, so I'm going to buy it for her." Inspector Okada apologized sheepishly, "I won't go back with you guys."

"Eh? It's already this late." Watanabe Minami narrowed her eyes slightly, but still smiled.

Inspector Okada, whose full name is Okada Masayoshi, was from the professional team and was a family friend of the Watanabe family. Watanabe Minami had always regarded this family friend, who was a few years older than her, as her brother.

However, Inspector Okada, who graduated from Keio University, did something puzzling last year - he met a supermarket saleswoman in Hachioji City while on a field mission and they got married quickly, causing a stir in upper class society at the time.

However, she did not say much, but readily agreed to release the person, and then followed the Metropolitan Police Department's car back to the Sakuradamon headquarters.

It was already past three in the morning, and the Metropolitan Police Department was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Total victory!

Superintendent General Watanabe Eiji, who had already prepared his bedding and was planning to spend the night in the office, sat behind his desk with a smile on his face and listened to the report.

The Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Chief Mori and the Chief of the First Investigation Division Mikasa stood in front of the table, nervous and excited.

"Well done. This time, the department has given the director a face." Watanabe Eiji nodded slowly, a smile appearing on his solemn face. He turned around the computer screen on the desk.

All major news websites, newspapers, magazines, and search engines were reporting on the Fuji TV building closure incident. Among the top ten results, nine were searched for keywords such as "Fuji TV Live Broadcasting", "Metropolitan Police Department", "Host Mai Shirakawa", "Odaiba Building Closure", "Muneko Uesugi", "Dead Body of Female Anchorman Found", "Judo Policewoman", "Arashiyama", and "Forensic Commentary".

"This is all thanks to the Director's quick judgment and good execution!" Criminal Minister Mao Li smiled: "If it weren't for your decisive judgment, how could we have achieved such a great victory? Not only did we solve the case in one day, we caught the criminal, and the criminal even confessed his guilt!"

"Now, our Criminal Division has finally suppressed the Public Security Department. Even the National Police Agency and the District Prosecutors Office have nothing to say, right?" Section Chief Mikasa also responded with a smile: "To be honest, the time given by the insurance company was too tight. At that time, I thought it was all over."

"Haha, you all have to thank Uesugi Munen. If he hadn't found the body, at your search speed, it would have been daybreak by the time you reached the underground area, right?"

Watanabe Eiji took out a document from the drawer and threw it in the faces of the two men: "Keep it, don't let the local prosecutor take advantage of it."

This document is an official letter from the Metropolitan Police Department to the Tokyo Medical and Dental University School of Medicine requesting that Uesugi Sosetsu be urgently dispatched to cooperate in the search, and both parties have stamped it.

The head of the Criminal Division and the head of the First Investigation Division's eyes sparkled, thinking that he was worthy of being the director, as he did things perfectly.

"Uesugi Muneyuki and the local female patrol officer's self-initiated search for the body was an illegal search. Why didn't you report it?" Watanabe Eiji stood up from his seat, put his hands behind his back and walked slowly in front of the two people. "If my daughter hadn't told me about this, it would have been troublesome if the district prosecutors had used this to make a fuss."

"I'm sorry!" Minister Mori and Section Chief Mikasa admitted their mistakes sincerely. They really wanted to avoid trouble, but they overlooked the fact that Uesugi Sosetsu's search was illegal from the beginning.

"I have already asked the district prosecutor to show leniency to what happened today," Watanabe Eiji continued with his hands behind his back.

"Huh?" The two thought to themselves, isn't what Uesugi Souji did legal?

"Because, Kashiwagi Ren from the Third Department detained the deceased's fiancé Shimagawa as a suspect!" Watanabe Eiji turned his back to his two subordinates, his face calm and expressionless: "Shimagawa Ren has already contacted Nishimura Asahi Law Firm and joined forces with several associations in Minato to send a lawyer's letter to the Criminal Department... There is no other way, we can only ask the District Prosecutor for help."

When they heard the name of Nishimura Asahi Office, the Chief of Criminal Investigation and the Chief of Investigation Section 1 trembled, put their hands down on the trouser legs on both sides and bowed 30 degrees together.

"We finally won the District Attorney's Office match last time thanks to Uesugi Sosetsu, but we had to give it back before we could even enjoy the fruits of victory." The Superintendent of Police still had his back to his two subordinates and spoke slowly.

The two subordinates bent even deeper, bowing at a forty-five degree angle, not daring to say a word.

"After that, I will have to kowtow and explain to Shimagawa, the National Police Agency, and the Cabinet why I suspected him. I was detained on the spot as a suspect even though I lost my fiancée. If Shimagawa publicly criticizes me in the media about this issue, I will have to apologize publicly."

The two subordinates' waists were bent to 90 degrees and they began to sweat.

"Don't think that I will unconditionally condone the actions of the Criminal Department just because I also came from the Criminal Department." Watanabe Eiji raised his hand high, but gently put it down: "Well, in short, the Criminal Department did a great job in today's incident. It maintained the reputation of this department and allowed all citizens to see the ability of this department."

"Thank you for your hard work, both of you. Thank you to all members of Section 1." Watanabe Eiji turned around and smiled again: "This night in the Kanto region belongs to our Metropolitan Police Department!"

Cheers finally broke out in the room, spreading throughout the entire floor and then to the entire Sakurada Gate!

This is all thanks to that man, Uesugi Sosetsu!

After the two subordinates left, Watanabe Eiji began to make the bed. The Superintendent had to go to work the next day, so he might as well spend the night in the office.

"Come in." The door opened, but Watanabe Eiji didn't even raise his head.

"Dad." The face of the Metropolitan Police Department, Minami Watanabe, pushed the door open and came in. She had a sweet smile on her face, which was different from her previous image of an icy beauty. She rushed forward in small steps, walked quickly to her father and saluted, "Congratulations, Director Watanabe!"

"Haha, which Director Watanabe are you congratulating? You little rascal!" Watanabe Eiji has always doted on his daughter. Seeing his daughter so excited, he was also very happy: "Anyway, it's finally a good result, otherwise I might have set a new record for the fastest resignation of the Superintendent General."

"If the guys from Section 1 really continue searching, my father will have to apologize to the cabinet in person at dawn." Watanabe Minami leaned over with a smile and helped Watanabe Eiji spread out the bed in a very ladylike manner. She said nothing, but her sweet eyes were filled with anticipation: "How is it? Director Watanabe of the Personnel Department is no worse than Director Watanabe of the Metropolitan Police Department, right?"

Watanabe Eiji showed an indulgent smile and ruffled his daughter's hair. "Okay, this time you have helped your father, truly helped your father."

"Hehe, then, how does father plan to deal with Uesugi-kun?" Watanabe Minami got the answer she wanted. Although it was expected, she couldn't help but smile brightly. She tilted her head and said in a sweet voice, "He is a talent I discovered. Today's on-site autopsy of Uesugi-kun is super cool!"

"What? Didn't you have no plan to get to know him so soon?" Watanabe Eiji was a little surprised. The majestic leader of 80,000 Tokyo police officers had no dignity in front of his daughter.

"Plans can't keep up with changes!" Watanabe Minami said coquettishly, "Anyway, he will be taken in by the agency sooner or later. I discussed it with him and he agreed."

"Yes, so you are proud, Inspector Watanabe." Watanabe Eiji teased his daughter.

"I didn't!" Watanabe Minami helped her father make the bed, sat down, and held her cheeks with her little hands: "So, how does father plan to arrange for Uesugi-kun to enter the Metropolitan Police Department?" "Well... give him a part-time job as a field consultant in the Forensic Division of the Metropolitan Police Department, and the salary will be based on the Tokyo minimum wage standard." Watanabe Eiji thought for a while and gave his opinion.

"That's too stingy!" Watanabe Minami pouted, "Uesugi-kun helped you and me, and the entire Metropolitan Police Department!"

"Don't be so ridiculous! Minami, Uesugi Sosetsu already has two salaries. The Tokyo Medical and Dental University gives him a fixed salary of 28 yen a month, and the Metropolitan Police Department gives him a minimum salary of 15 yen. He also does autopsies for local police stations. He earns at least 30 yen a month from this. If you calculate, after deducting taxes and the three pensions (national pension, employee pension, and enterprise pension), his salary is close to 60 yen a month, which is higher than yours!"

Watanabe Eiji was both angry and amused: "This guy conducted an illegal search and forced us to clean up his mess, and now you are still defending him?"

"But he's really amazing!" The Metropolitan Police Department muttered, "Compared to him, those guys in the Forensic Science Department look like they're from Kanagawa."

"That's true." Watanabe Eiji also watched the live broadcast and had nothing to say about Uesugi Munesetsu's autopsy ability, but Uesugi Munesetsu himself was not in the system. He was a full-time employee physician at the hospital. Although the Superintendent of Police had a high rank, he could not control Uesugi Munesetsu himself. "Anyway, let's handle it this way first. This way, the people in the department and the other side will have nothing to say. In the future, the department can legitimately ask him to assist in the search, and this kid will no longer conduct illegal searches."

"Then...how about I represent this office in handling Uesugi's affairs from now on?" Watanabe Minami pursed her lips and asked tentatively.

"That's how it should be."

With her father's consent, Watanabe Minami was satisfied.

Looking at the face of the Metropolitan Police Department who was as elegant and beautiful as a butterfly in the room, Watanabe Eiji showed a hint of regret on his face. He was already fifty years old and had only this daughter in his life.

Watanabe Minami is excellent in every sense. If she were a boy, the joke of "Director Watanabe" might actually work.

It's a pity that she is a girl. In this country, a strong family must be supported by men.

Ok?
A strange thought suddenly popped up in Watanabe Eiji's mind.

————I am the dividing line of strange thoughts————

At half past ten the next morning, Uesugi Sosetsu woke up from his bed in his student apartment. He ignored the obvious bulge on the quilt, picked up his cell phone, and his heart trembled.

All missed calls.

Damn it, I slept too soundly last night. First, I overused my strength, and then it was filled up by Hironaka Mariko's spirit. I was in a state of excitement and fatigue, and couldn't wake up at all.

Now that he's awake, Uesugi Sosetsu just feels like he's madly wanting to find someone to connect with Princess Connect.

The Dead Soul Contract was triggered twice in a row yesterday. The aftereffects were too strong!
Wandering around and washing up casually, Uesugi Sosetsu checked the types of missed calls while brushing his teeth, and first called his father Uesugi Yuken.

Yukenori Uesugi answered almost immediately.

The father first congratulated his son on his great achievement. He told Uesugi Munesetsu that all the family members had watched the live broadcast and were all proud of Uesugi Munesetsu.

"You're famous now! People are talking about you on the Internet and in the news. You are indeed the descendant of Lord Kenshin! Haha!" My father's proud and arrogant words came from the phone: "The Record of the Clearance of Wrongs of Yonezawa Uesugi, it's being serialized!"

Uesugi Sosetsu smiled.

The identity of the nobility was considered a wealthy family eighty to one hundred and fifty years ago. After the war, the entire nobility system was shattered by Emperor Go-Star Mai with one punch. In other words, the descendants of these daimyo and feudal lords were able to live well and call themselves famous families because they were tied to the culture of local historical celebrities and owned some real estate. However, if they really fell into poverty, they would not only lose their halo, but might even become the laughing stock of society.

"Okay, Xuesong, your reputation is something that Dad will help you cash in." Uesugi Yuken heard his son didn't respond, until he realized that he didn't care about it, so he continued: "I have already discussed it with that old guy Ukai, Xuesong, you are going to be promoted!"

"What?!" Uesugi Sosetsu was stunned.

Can this be promoted?

Uesugi Sosetsu is currently a medical student at Tokyo Medical and Dental University, but he has already passed the qualification exam and entered the forensic pathology department as an intern as a junior trainee.

Due to the previous attack and the fact that no one was willing to work as a forensic doctor, Uesugi Sosetsu's two-year internship and regular training were shortened to three months. He is now a formally practicing physician, and although his title is still junior, he is already a full member, and this level is called a "certified doctor."

If a doctor wants to be promoted further, he will become a "specialist doctor", at which point he will be qualified to prescribe medicine on his own. If a "specialist doctor" is promoted further and passes the medical examination, he can be promoted to a "specialized doctor", at which level he can obtain the qualification of attending physician.

In Japan, when you reach the level of attending physician, your annual salary will basically exceed 10 million (but you will basically not have much hair left).

The next level up is the "supervising physician", also known as the "professor". At this level, one is qualified to lead students and host major projects, and serve as the "head" of the medical department, such as Professor Zaizen of the First Department of Surgery and Professor Okouchi, the mentor of Uesugi Sosetsu.

I haven't even graduated yet, and I'm going to be promoted to specialize in medicine?

"But you won't graduate until April next year." As expected, Uesugi Yuken said, "So I've discussed with Dean Ukai, and when you graduate and pass the exam next April, the Tokyo Medical and Dental Conference will immediately promote you to a specialist doctor."

It can be considered a good thing, Uesugi Sosetsu curled the corner of his mouth. There is no one competing with him in his line of work.

"Oh, yes, yes, there is one more important thing I want to tell you." Uesugi Yuken said proudly, "Xedonmaru, it's almost time for you to move out of that student apartment."

"what?"

"I'm serious, Xuesong. You're going to graduate next April and be promoted to a medical major. What's the point of living in a student dormitory?!" Uesugi Yuken said with an unquestionable decisiveness: "You're a celebrity now, so you should have matching accommodation conditions."

"Our family happens to have a tower building in Bunkyo-ku whose lease has expired. It's ready for you to live in. You should prepare to move in in the next few days."

After talking to his father for a few words, Uesugi Sosetsu put down the phone and looked at the student apartment where he had lived for more than four years with some nostalgia.

Moving to a new home?
　Regarding Japan's doctor levels and medical system, I consulted a medical student who studied in Japan, but the information may not be completely accurate and may be slightly outdated. I hope you can be a little more tolerant. I don't think you will be interested in reading a too complicated and lengthy article.
