Tokyo Detective

Chapter 23: Bronze Sparrow Tower

Naoki Hanyu tells you his plan in full.

"I don't intend to procrastinate, I will directly attack the Tongque Tower now."

Akimoto Seiko was stunned. Was he planning to act on his own?

"Not to mention whether you can command other detectives, Section Chief Shiratori and the deputy director will not let you do whatever you want. Without accurate evidence, it is difficult to forcibly search the Tongque Tower."

To search a private place, the general procedure is to find conclusive evidence and then apply for a search warrant from the court or police department. This is the normal procedure.

Otherwise, even if it is a police officer, it may trigger the crime of illegal trespass.

Of course, there is another way to get around this, which is to enter a private place without permission if you find any lawbreakers there.

Akimoto Seiko instantly thought of the second method. Based on her understanding of the man in front of her, he could definitely do it.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course I have. My heart of justice is beating."

"."

Even Seiko Akimoto doesn't want to complain. Naoki Hanyu's performance in the past year is definitely one of the best in the police force, but justice is hard to say.

After being partners for more than half a year, she actually sensed the possibility of some kind of frame-up, but she just didn't say it out loud.

Akimoto Seiko's guess was correct. Hanyu Naoki had just condensed a three-star sin tonight, and he didn't want to stop.

Naoki Hanyu reported his next actions via the walkie-talkie.

"This is police officer Naoki Hanyu. We have discovered a human trafficking site through the criminal's confession. We are now going to block the target entrance and exit to prevent the suspect from transferring the trafficked people. I request a search warrant immediately and request support from all squads."

Naoki Hanyu wouldn't be stupid enough to search his private areas. It would be better to find an excuse to block the entrances and exits first, and then things would be much easier after contact.

The two drove a police car to the Tongque Tower in the Seyada district and soon arrived at a large courtyard villa full of ancient atmosphere. Under the night sky, various lights made the building look magnificent.

Just looking at its appearance, no one would have thought it was a place where filth and dirt were hidden.

The appearance of the police car attracted the attention of the security personnel of Tongque Tower, but they did not pay much attention to it until two police officers set up a cordon and police cars appeared one after another.

First, it was his colleagues from the Ota Ward Police Headquarters, and then the police officers nearby.

For example, Miwako Sato of the First Investigation Division, and Shio Miki, the head of the Seventh Department of the First Investigation Division.

The police officer, who was one of the highest ranking at the scene, immediately got out of the car and rushed up to Hanyu Naoki to question him.

"Naoki Hanyu, what right do you have to command the task force to surround a private place?"

Naoki Hanyu spread his hands.

"Inspector Miki, you can go and read the witness's statement. I have good reason to prevent the victim from being transferred. Also, I didn't rush in and search randomly. Now everyone is just waiting for a search warrant."

"you"

Miki Shio was very angry at the arrogant newcomer in front of him. A mere non-professional guy actually snatched the first credit today and dared to command a group of seniors who were in higher positions than him.

"I will file a complaint with the Metropolitan Police Department for overstepping your authority."

Naoki Hanyu still smiled and ignored the accusations of his "senior". Instead, he greeted Miwako Sato who had arrived nearby.

"Inspector Sato, is everything going well over there?"

"Sufficient evidence has been found."

Soon, more than a dozen police cars blocked the entrance of Tongque Tower, and the red police lights gave people a sense of pressure as if a storm was about to come.

The management of Tongque Tower was finally alarmed by the gathered police and began to report to the person behind the scenes.

A car belonging to Tokyo TV was parked not far away, and two reporters approached with eating utensils.

They were called here by a man to avoid being silenced by some big shots afterwards, so that they would not be able to reveal the truth of the incident.

Ota Ward Police Headquarters, Task Force Command Room.

Shiratori Tianrong had just received a reply from the court that the search warrant he applied for was not approved, which made him fall into deep thought.

His subordinates had originally applied for a search warrant, and he thought that he might be able to find more by following the clues, but he didn't expect the court to reject it. Shiratori Tianrong asked his colleague who was doing nothing.

"Deputy Director Sakata, do you know this place called Tongque Tower?"

"Isn't Tongquelou a high-end club located in Shinjuku?"

Shiratori Tianrong shook his head.

"No, the Bronze Sparrow Tower we want to search is located in the Seiyada District."

"I do not know then."

Suddenly, both of their cell phones rang at the same time. After answering, one was from a superior at the Metropolitan Police Department and the other was a secretary of a politician.

What both parties meant was probably that the task force should stop at the right time and must not search the Bronze Sparrow Tower.

The two senior police officers looked at each other and could see each other's surprise.

It seems that this time we have really stirred up a hornet's nest, and we have even persuaded the court, senior officials of the Metropolitan Police Department, and politicians to take action.

Who is behind the Tongque Tower?
At the same time, the door was pushed open, and the director, who had not appeared all the time, finally appeared.

This is a kind old man who is almost 60 years old. His name is Kento Nitta. He holds the rank of Superintendent of Police. There are only more than 500 Superintendents of Police in the country.

"Longma, Tianrong, it seems that you have given me a difficult problem."

Sakata Ryoma asked with a serious expression.

"Director, what should we do now?"

Shiratori Tenei added.

"Uncle Nitta, according to the information we received, at least a dozen abducted girls are hiding in there."

When Kento Nitta heard him address him as uncle, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that the younger generation was trying to play the emotional card.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, Tianrong, you still hate evil. Otherwise, with your family background and ability, you should at least have the same police rank as me. Give it up. Even if they report it to the deputy minister or the official chief, they will ask you to give it up."

Upon hearing this, Shiratori Tianrong clenched his fists and gave orders expressionlessly.

"Notify the task force, everyone retreat."

At the same time, the security chief of Tongque Tower was bringing two security guards to contact the police.

Naoki Hanyu took the lead and bumped shoulders with a security guard on the way. He was followed by Shio Miki and others, who were not willing to let a junior represent them.

"We have received intelligence that there is a missing girl hiding in your Tongque Tower. We need to go in and search."

The security chief sneered.

"Mr. Police Officer, please don't make any claims without evidence. If you want to search, you can. Where is your search warrant? Otherwise, please don't hinder us from coming in and out."

Naoki Hanyu looked at the guy who was relying on others for power with cold eyes.

"Are you so sure we can't get in?"

"Of course, I'm sure. And Mr. Police Officer, your shoulder is dirty. I'll pat it for you. I hope it won't cost you your rank."

Naoki Hanyu did not stop the other party from patting his shoulders. Since they wanted to die, he didn't mind giving them a ride.

There were three people, two with red names and one with dark grey name. It turned out that they came to the right place.

Miki Shio suddenly said.

"Minister Hanyu, the superiors have already ordered a retreat, so don't act on your own."

Naoki Hanyu ignored him and pointed to the man's waist instead, while his other hand reached for his gun, shocking everyone present.

"Please sir, lift up your clothes and let me see your waist."

"???"

The familiar method reappeared, giving Akimoto Seiko, who was silent on the side, a strange sense of déjà vu.
