Tokyo Detective

Chapter 319 You are no longer of any use.
Five minutes earlier, Superintendent General Koichi Uemura was having tea and playing chess in his office with his old friend, the Director of the Health Bureau of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. Both of them were members of the opposition party and were discussing who should take over as the head of the Criminal Investigation Department.

Shiratori Ten'ei has been promoted to Vice Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Department, so he wants to appoint a trusted confidant as the head of the Criminal Investigation Department.

The Superintendent General of Police said calmly.

"I plan to appoint Kuraki. He has been the head of the Second Investigation Division for more than ten years. He has enough reputation and connections, and he also has a good relationship with Shiratori Ten'ei."

"Hehe, so that means two of the Metropolitan Police Department's three top officials have agreed, and the remaining deputy commissioner has nothing to say. But old friend, aren't you afraid the cabinet will be dissatisfied?"

Koichi Uemura gave him a reassuring look.

"Don't worry, I'm confident I can bring it up, and the entire Metropolitan Police Department won't have any objections."

Just then, the Third Counselor of the Director rushed in and told the two elderly people some bad news.

"Director, there has been a prison break by criminals at Arakawa Bridge. Our escort team has been blocked on the bridge by a large truck and a firefight has broken out. The criminals are very powerful."

Health Bureau Director Shinta Asuka stopped what he was doing.

"Looks like you'll be busy. Let's call this a draw."

"I'm not a sore loser. I did lose, but today is definitely not a good day for chess."

Just as Koichi Uemura was about to take command himself, another chief advisor brought him bad news.

"Director, all 17 members of the escort team have been killed, and the prisoner has been abducted by the criminals."

"What? This is Tokyo city proper, and criminals have kidnapped prisoners here?"

Koichi Uemura was so shocked that his blood pressure spiked and his body swayed a few times. This was the first piece of bad news he had received in the six months since he became the Superintendent General of Police. Was this the kind of pressure that the previous superintendent had often faced?

Koichi Uemura took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"Has the security headquarters notified the special forces to be deployed?"

"We've already notified them, but even if we take a helicopter, it will still take 12 minutes to get there."

Hiroshi Uemura nodded.

"Let Vice Commander Shiratori take charge of this operation."

"Yes."

Soon another phone call came in, causing Koichi Uemura's expression to change drastically once again.

"Two teams are clashing, the Emperor Squad, a unit directly under my command?"

"Bullshit! I've never heard of any Emperor Squad. Are you out of your mind? Would the word 'Emperor' even be used by our Metropolitan Police Department?"

What right does a director have to have a direct counter-terrorism team? Besides, calling himself "Emperor" is just a way of making sure others know he's plotting a rebellion. Whose rebellion? The Locust King or the Prime Minister?
"."

At this moment, Koichi Uemura's heart sank to the bottom. This meant that there was not only one group of thugs in Tokyo, but also another group with equally powerful firepower.

"Can the special operations team really handle this?"

The special attack squad in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo, has only about 50 members. Although their numbers are greater than those of the criminals, their weaponry is questionable.

"Block all roads in Arakawa Ward. I want to make it impossible for the thugs to escape. Also, contact the Tokyo Bay Defense Force."

"This"

Koichi Uemura didn't care about all that. He wanted to be different from his predecessor, and besides, as long as he called on the defense team, they could share some of the responsibility.

The defense team responded quickly.

"No."

"."

Three years ago, if the Metropolitan Police Department had wanted the defense force's help, those idle strawberry soldiers would have agreed long ago.

The world has changed, and everyone is afraid to take on a job.

The new defense minister does not want to become the second person to kneel down.
.
Mai Fujiwara and her partner Miyuki Kobayakawa are handling a stabbing case.

Miyuki Kobayakawa noticed that her partner seemed to be in a good mood today, and couldn't help but ask her out of curiosity.

"Mai, did something good happen to you today?"

"Hehe, I received a notice this morning that I'm now a semi-professional."

Exemption quota

Miyuki Kobayakawa couldn't help but show envy. After all, the other party was the boss's apprentice. However, even they, as direct descendants, might not be unable to obtain exemptions from the exam.

"Want to grab a drink tonight?"

"Sure, shall we have a women's club?"

"Okay, should we call them Senior Saint Child and the others?"

Fujiwara Mai hesitated.

"It seems very impolite not to greet them."

"Yes."

Suddenly, a message came through the car radio.

"Notify all police officers that a fierce firefight has broken out on the Arakawa Bridge connecting Arakawa Ward and Adachi Ward. The perpetrator is armed with submachine guns, automatic rifles, Gatling guns, rocket launchers, sniper rifles, and other weapons. All officers, please be on your guard."

"Arakawa Bridge, Gatling gun, rocket launcher?"

Miyuki Kobayakawa's expression changed slightly.

They were currently in Arakawa Ward, and in this situation, turning back was not an option; they had to get to the scene first.

"Miyuki Kobayakawa and Mai Fujiwara from the 8th Investigation Team of the First Investigation Division are on their way."

Mai Fujiwara took out two bulletproof vests, an MP5 submachine gun, and a Benelli M3 shotgun from the storage box.

"Give."

Miyuki Kobayakawa took the shotgun and nodded; hearing that the thugs possessed a rocket launcher made her extremely nervous.
On the contrary, Fujiwara Mai felt somewhat calm. Although it was her first time fighting a Gatling gun, she was not afraid because she had experienced many major cases.

Take a deep breath and relax.

Senior, I really wish you were here with me right now.

The police car arrived at the intersection near Arakawa Bridge, only to find it almost completely blocked by vehicles that had changed lanes. Fortunately, traffic police managed to clear the way for the police car to enter.
Just then, an ambulance that happened to be passing by was temporarily requisitioned. Two paramedics were treating the wounds of the police officers who had been shot and were also providing first aid to the seriously injured.
The injured person grabbed the paramedic's arm

"Save me, I don't want to die!"

Male paramedics comforted the patient
"Don't worry, you won't die since your wound didn't hit any internal organs."

An ambulance driver was also making a phone call and shouting.

"This is the Arakawa Bridge area. Please send all the ambulances from the hospital here."

"This is not in accordance with the rules? Come and see the tragedy at the scene. There are nearly a hundred dead and injured. Please send an ambulance here immediately."

Cries of pain and shouts filled the air as two policewomen got out of their vehicle with heavy hearts and spoke with the patrol officers at the scene.

"Hello, this is Mai Fujiwara from the First Investigation Division. How is the situation at the scene?"

The policeman, his clothes stained with blood, spoke in a dejected tone.

"I am Mukai, the head of the traffic division of the Arakawa Police Station. The Emperor Squad is currently attacking the thugs on the bridge, and they need our help to evacuate and treat the wounded."

"The Emperor Squad?"

"Yes, I heard it's an anti-terrorism team directly under the director."

Mai Fujiwara had been at the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters for several months but had never heard of the Emperor Squad. Although the two policewomen were full of doubts, they still participated in the task of building a cordon and evacuating residents.

The sound of bullets exploding on the bridge was incessant, truly comparable to the battlefields of the Middle East and Russia.

As the gunfire subsided, one by one the criminals jumped into the river, boarded speedboats, and left. A phone call shocked all the police officers and even the reporters who had rushed to the scene.

"There is no such thing as the Emperor Squad; they are all fake."

"."

The entire Metropolitan Police Department has been played for a fool. Being fooled in front of reporters is an absolute disgrace.

Seeing that the so-called Emperor Squad members were still jumping into the river, the police officer in charge finally realized the problem.

"We can't let all the criminals leave."

The surrounding police officers looked embarrassed.

The on-site commander doesn't care what others think. If he lets the other party leave, there will definitely be trouble, and he might even take the blame, since he is the only police officer on site.

"Everyone, follow me." Fujiwara Mai had no objections, and after confirming that her submachine gun was working properly, she followed.

"Don't move, or I'll shoot."

Naoki Hanyu was speechless as he looked at his apprentice pointing a submachine gun at him. This was truly the first time he had ever done this. What a disobedient disciple!

Naoki Hanyu thought for a moment, then suddenly turned and rushed toward the police, because his avatar had arrived.

"shot."

"bang bang bang bang"

The bullets hit the armored car without leaving any survivors. Naoki Hanyu knocked several policemen away, but he had held back and only caused them serious superficial injuries.

A police car was lifted up by Naoki Hanyu, which startled the police officers, who retreated repeatedly. The two-ton police car was lifted high like that. Is he even human?
The police car crashed into another ordinary car, and the collision unexpectedly caused an explosion. The flames and thick smoke made the police afraid to take another step forward.

[Ding! Intentionally damaging private property has accumulated 6 stars of sin.]

I finally got 6 stars.

The police officer in charge was so shocked that he was speechless.

"Is this a movie shoot? Do we need a superhero?"

Just as Naoki Hanyu was preparing for his final performance, he suddenly felt a slight pain in his lower back. Looking down, he saw that a piece of armor had fallen off his kidney area during the battle, exposing a two-centimeter-wide weak point. The person who fired the shot was none other than his good apprentice, Mai Fujiwara.

"court death."

Naoki Hanyu roared and charged at Mai Fujiwara. He first held back and punched the ground, then launched several more attacks, which were "barely" dodged by Mai Fujiwara. This scene was captured by a reporter's camera.

A beautiful policewoman battles a steel monster. Whose subordinate is this, so brave?

As Naoki Hanyu pursued and tested her, he gradually became satisfied. Over the past two years, this silly girl had been training with him and learning martial arts, and her physique had exceeded 20. Now it seemed that her practical combat experience was also quite good.

But that's it.

The next second, Fujiwara Mai felt a steel hand suddenly press against her abdomen. The attack she expected to be fatal or seriously injured did not occur. Instead, she was pushed several meters away by a strange, gentle force.

Although my abdomen is very painful, it doesn't seem like any internal organs are damaged.

"This is?"

Before Fujiwara Mai could even wonder what was happening, a huge shadow had already enveloped her—it was Naoki Hanyu.

Just as Iron Man reached out to grab the policewoman again, his steel arm was suddenly grabbed by someone who was actually dressed in a police uniform.

With a punch, Naoki Hanyu staggered back several meters in a fit of impotent rage.

"You damned bastard."

Unmoved, he first took off his coat and loosened his tie, then rolled up his sleeves, appearing completely unhurried.

"bring it on."

The two figures collided, and what happened next shocked the police and even the reporters. The police hero "Naoki Hanyu" and Iron Man were locked in a fierce battle, their strength evenly matched.

As they fought, the two Naoki Hanyu noticed the silhouette of an airplane in the distance, so they finally stopped pretending to fight and instead flew back a few meters looking injured.

The true form looks down upon the incarnation from a superior position.

"You're even stronger than me? I'll call you the strongest in Japan."

The next second, the main body carried the prisoner and jumped into the sea.

"senior."

Fujiwara Mai hurriedly ran to the incarnation's side.

"It's nothing, just a minor injury. Go and help."

"I understand."

Fujiwara Mai hesitated for a moment but did not object. After all, Hanyu Naoki had a strong recovery ability. Even if he was shot, he would recover in a day. Moreover, he only had a little bruise and swelling.

Soon a group of police officers arrived at the scene. Shiratori Ten'ei, as the commander of this operation, first arranged for several helicopters to search for the whereabouts of the criminals' speedboat along the Arakawa River.

They also deployed a water police force to block the river in speedboats in an attempt to find the perpetrators.

Half an hour later, Shiratori Tensei was disappointed; the thugs who had initially escaped by speedboat had vanished without a trace.

Although it's snowing and satellite tracking is impossible, the fact that the police can't find any trace of them suggests that the perpetrators have powerful inside contacts in Japan; otherwise, this wouldn't have happened.

Furthermore, the Emperor Squad that jumped into the river was not found either. Naoki Hanyu had his clones take the prisoners out through the sewers. He had already arranged an escape route, which infuriated Ten'ei Shiratori.

Because they can't find the person, they can't give an explanation. You have to know that as the deputy director, he has the responsibility of being the spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police Department. That is to say, if a major case occurs, he will have to come out and embarrass himself.

Just then, Naoki Hanyu, who had switched back with his incarnation, also came over.

"How is Uncle Tianrong?"

"Can't find it. What's wrong with Tokyo? Major cases keep happening. This time, 88 people have died or been injured. This has never happened before."

Indeed, Naoki Hanyu would try to minimize civilian casualties in his crimes, and this incident, with 88 dead and injured, is definitely the most serious in three years.

Shiratori Ten'ei said angrily.

"Yuzuru, this case is not your responsibility. The perpetrators in this case are all foreigners. Let's hand it over to the security department."

Naoki Hanyu didn't care about that; he was more curious about who would take on the role of Chief of Criminal Investigation.

"Hasn't the higher-ups decided who will succeed the minister yet? It's been almost five days."

"We'll have an answer in a few more days at most. I'll guess it's Kuraki. By the way, you'll be attending the press conference later too."

Naoki Hanyu's face fell upon hearing this. He only wanted prestige and didn't want to be questioned, but he had no choice but to agree since his superior had spoken.
A few hours later, the latest evening news aired, reporting on today's tragedy, the press conference, and so on.

Although this incident brought shame to the entire Metropolitan Police Department, with two gangs of criminals fighting to the death on the bridge while the police stood outside watching the whole thing, it greatly displeased the citizens of Tokyo.

However, not all police officers have a bad reputation. At least the popularity of Naoki Hanyu and his apprentice has risen rapidly. It seems that to be remembered, you need other people to make you stand out.

Mai Fujiwara has also received several online nicknames.

The most famous are Criminal Leopard and Metropolitan Police Department Milk Dragon.

After all, her master's title of "Dragon of the Metropolitan Police Department" is already widely known, and as the Dragon's apprentice, she also has a pair of ample breasts that are the envy of women, so it was only a matter of time before people associated her with "Milk Dragon".
.
That evening, in Yorii Town, Saitama Prefecture, a small town built against the mountainside, five people were sitting in an abandoned factory in the empty mountains, with a body and two injured people on the ground.

They were the remaining members of the Berserker Squad. One of them died on the way back, two others were seriously injured, and the remaining five had some injuries.

Bright, who was the core member of the team, lost his entire arm, and the wound became infected, causing him to have a persistent high fever.

The other person was not only shot in the abdomen, but also had his femur shattered by the bullet, making it impossible for him to walk normally.

The other five people all sustained some kind of injury.

Yesterday they were all members of a top-tier mercenary group, but now, after the battle, only 5 of them remain with fighting ability, making the atmosphere extremely tense.

A man named Jingu Nagashi suddenly stood up.

"Everyone, we're going our separate ways from now on."

Chris quickly tried to persuade him to stay.

“Shrine, we must unite more than ever at this time.”

"No, I joined the team at the boss's invitation. Now that the boss is in grave danger, there's no need for me to stay here."

Chris frowned upon hearing this. Others might be after money, but the five core members were definitely after becoming stronger.

Now that they've lost their leader, Morgans Group probably won't give them the valuable opportunity to transform the company, so Jingu has no reason to stay.

Without a word, Jingu opened the door and left, leaving behind four members and two critically injured men.

"Vice Captain, what should we do? The doctors and medicines they promised haven't arrived. Are they planning to let us die here?"

"Don't rush."

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

Several vehicles delivered the doctors and medicines that Longgao Group had promised.

After the team members had administered anti-inflammatory and antibiotic drugs, the two doctors suddenly used scalpels to slit the throats of the two seriously injured patients, which immediately enraged the rest of the team members.

"What are you doing?"

The doctor did not respond, but hurriedly retreated. A series of rapid footsteps came from outside, and more than thirty armed thugs stormed in.

The middle-aged man in the lead said coldly.

"You are no longer of any use to me."
