Tokyo Detective

Chapter 321 We've Caught a Big Fish

"Longgao Group?"

"Yes."

Although Naoki Hanyu had suspected Longgao Group, a large company in the chemical and pharmaceutical fields, and even sent his clones to investigate twice, he ultimately shelved the matter due to a lack of leads.

Anyway, he had been eyeing Takamura Yamato for a long time. Rather than searching aimlessly, he might as well get the inside information from this guy, just like now.
.
The whole story is that Longgao Group has a project to find rare and precious materials from myths. Although 99.99% of myths are false, some of them are based on real events.

As a result, Longgao Pharmaceuticals had dozens of investigation teams, and the project that Mukai Saiichi was in charge of was the Legend of the Divine Tree.

This unfortunate man enlisted the help of a folklorist friend to investigate. After more than a year, they finally found some clues. However, the deeper they went, the more they felt that the story might be true, and in the end, they both lost their lives.

Sure enough, in bizarre events, curious people and folklorists often meet a terrible end.

Although the person later died, there was a record within the Longgao Group, not to mention that Mukai Saiichi's death was too strange.

The team then followed the clues and found the sacred tree in the mountain. Just as they were about to take action, the police led by Naoki Hanyu beat them to it, which led to the case of the body robbery.

Originally, Yamato Takamura could have directed from a distance that day, but he was too confident and participated personally, so he was caught and became the first high-ranking executive of the Ryugao Group to be arrested, a terrible flaw.

The mastermind behind the Ryugao Group is Makoto Nagase, a 90-year-old man who has always longed for immortality.

The group has a large, highly secretive biological research institute in the mountains of Kawauchi, Fukushima Prefecture, which is also in cahoots with the local government and contains the group's top secrets.

Yamato Takamura was unaware of the situation at the Biological Research Institute, but he did have a job related to it, which involved collaborating with certain hospitals or yakuza groups in Tokyo.

The collaboration with the hospital involved stealing newborn babies and transporting them back to the research institute. The parents were told that the baby was stillborn, since the doctors and nurses inside were all their people, and no one would testify for the families who lost their children.

As a result, there are 13 hospitals associated with the Longgao Group, 132 cooperating doctors and nurses, and 4 cooperating underworld organizations.

Naoki Hanyu looked at Yamato Takamura's intelligence report with a somewhat serious expression.

"You guys really deserve to die."

Upon hearing this, Takamura Yamato panicked.

"No, no, you promised you'd let me go if I told the truth."

"Don't worry, I mean what I say."

Naoki Hanyu then pressed the mercenaries for answers, but seeing that they were still stubborn, he gave up and decided to wait a bit longer.

Next, he will verify whether what Yamato Takamura said is true, and use the police system to check the number of babies born and the number of pregnant women in 13 hospitals.

Naoki Hanyu indeed noticed something slightly off; it wasn't that these hospitals had low birth rates, but rather that they were similar to hospitals outside of Tokyo.

However, these 13 hospitals are quite good in Tokyo, with higher technology and better doctors than hospitals outside of Tokyo.

The fact that a woman can have her baby and give birth in such a hospital, yet the birth rate is the same as in third- or fourth-tier cities or even towns, already indicates a problem.

The light from the computer screen illuminated the contours of Naoki Hanyu's face.

"It wasn't for nothing that I waited for more than a month; I finally caught the little chicken foot."

It was evening at Tianyang Hospital.

Just as the obstetrician named Minami Bunta was about to leave work, a beautiful nurse suddenly rushed out from around the corner, pulled him to a corner, and pressed her whole body against him.

This woman is a midwife, which is a nurse who is specifically responsible for the delivery of pregnant women. She is more qualified than a regular nurse, and her name is Yao Reiko.

"Dr. Wentai, Dr. Wentai, is there any news from over there?"

Nanri Bunta frowned as he faced the woman's urgency.

"Reiko, you're too hasty. There's still no news from them. You know a lot has happened in Tokyo lately, so they're probably worried too."

Reiko Yao became even more anxious upon hearing this.

"But Mrs. Miki and Mrs. Oe are due to give birth this week, and they are the only ones with the blood type they need. There are no suitable candidates available for the next three months."

"Then let's wait until next time."

"I can't wait until next time, I can't wait until next time."

Nanri Bunta's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

"You're not still gambling, are you?"

Reiko Yao couldn't help but show a guilty look.

"No, no."

Well, this woman still can't quit gambling.

"How much is owed?"

“20 million, that’s not much. I can get it by selling five babies. Otherwise, those loan sharks would kill me.”

Seeing the madness in the woman's eyes, Nanri Bunta regretted introducing her to the money he earned from selling babies. He blamed himself for not being able to resist having a relationship with her and even becoming her lover.

Although this woman was really sexy back then, and had a fantastic figure, I should have avoided her if I had known she was a gambling addict. Now she's become an inescapable problem.

Reiko Yao grabbed the man's hand and slipped it inside her clothes, pleading in a seductive tone.

"Can you lend me 2000 million? I'll repay you." "No, I don't have that much money."

Despite her best efforts, Reiko Yao remained unmoved by the man's advances, and in a fit of anger, she uttered words she shouldn't have.

"Wenta, we're in this together. If something really happens to me, do you think you can stay out of it?"

Nanri Bunta's eyes sharpened.

"Are you threatening me?"

Reiko Yao finally came to her senses and quickly tried to deceive him by acting cute.

"No, I just meant that they've always served you wholeheartedly, and if something happens to them, you won't get that service anymore."

"Really?"

"real."

Nanri Bunta suddenly smiled and kissed and nibbled at the woman, pinching her in many places with his hands.

"Wait for me at home tonight. I'll have the 2000 million ready for you."

"Really? I love you so much, darling. I'm going home to wait for your good news."

As Nanri Bunta watched the woman's figure disappear, his expression turned sinister and filled with murderous intent.

Not long ago, his contact there informed him that this period was very dangerous and that he should prepare himself and not leave any loopholes. Now, this damned gambling woman dares to threaten him. It seems that Yao-wei Reiko is the real loophole.

"You forced me to do this, so you can't blame me."

Nanri Bunta turned and headed to his office; he needed to prepare some medicine.

Late at night, Reiko Yao lay in bed wearing a sexy nightgown; her alluring body was a great source of male hormones.

But now she was filled with fear, and in front of her stood a man who was completely different from usual.

"Bunta, I feel like I can't control my body. What's wrong with me? Please call an ambulance for me."

Nanri Wentai gave a cold explanation.

"Of course you'll be unable to move after ingesting rocuronium bromide."

"What? Rocuronium bromide was in the drink just now? What are you trying to do?"

Rocuronium bromide, a non-depolarizing muscle relaxant, is a drug used in clinical anesthesia to block neuromuscular signal transmission, leading to skeletal muscle paralysis.

Using it alone can cause conscious paralysis, just like Reiko Yao is in this state.

Nanri Bunta picked up the pillow from the bed.

"You stupid woman, you're just a risk of being exposed to me, so what am I supposed to do with you?"

"No, don't kill me, I love you, Bunta, I'll never do it again, I'll listen to whatever you say, sob sob."

Reiko Yao cried her heart out, but the man in front of her remained unmoved.

His plan was to have Reiko Yao drink an excessive amount of rocuronium bromide. After taking the drug, she would experience limb weakness 20-30 minutes later, then gradually become unable to move, and finally suffer respiratory failure.

If someone is smothered to death with a pillow in such a situation, the autopsy will show "acute respiratory failure," which can easily be misdiagnosed as heart disease or stroke.

As an obstetrician who has performed many surgeries, he is absolutely adept at using medications.

Time passed second by second, and Yao Reiko's voice became almost inaudible, and she was having some difficulty breathing. Nanri Bunta knew it was time to make his move.

Just as he was tightly covering the woman's face with a pillow, his expression becoming increasingly ferocious, his body was suddenly thrown out and crashed into the wall, while the nearly dead Yao Reiko gasped for breath.

Nanri Bunta felt as if his body was falling apart, and he was terrified of the dark shadow that enveloped him.

"Who are you? Are you here to collect a debt from this stupid woman? I don't know anything. I'm leaving now."

"No need to go any further, I came here specifically to ask about the price of the baby."

Nanri Bunta's face turned pale instantly. The other party was actually coming for the baby. He was doomed.

"I"

Before Nanri Bunta could finish speaking, he was knocked to the ground, and next came the woman on the bed.

Seeing that the other party was about to knock her out, Yaoi Reiko quickly shouted with all her might.

"Don't knock me out. I drank a large amount of muscle relaxant, which caused my respiratory muscles to become paralyzed. If I faint, I will suffocate and die."

Are muscle relaxants really that powerful?

Naoki Hanyu really didn't know this kind of knowledge, so he grabbed the mountain peak with one hand and squeezed it tightly. Seeing that the woman was still having difficulty breathing but didn't seem to be in any pain, he finally believed her and didn't knock her unconscious.

Even if you don't knock her unconscious, you can't make Reiko Yao make a sound. Just rummage through the cabinet, take out a pair of stockings, and stuff them into her mouth.

"Today is truly a bumper harvest day."

Naoki Hanyu just loves the feeling of solving cases extremely quickly; he finds the drawn-out, tedious process of going to court too troublesome.
