Tokyo Detective

Chapter 354 Divine Palace. Sudden Death?
Inside the apartment, Jingu Eizai waited quietly for Jingu Genpu and the others to arrive, but the agreed time had passed, making him very anxious.

"Something happened to them?"

Just then, the doorbell rang, startling Jingu Nagato, who hid behind the door with his phone in one hand and a knife in the other.

"Ding dong, ding dong."

The doorbell kept ringing. Jingu Nagashi checked the security camera footage on his phone and saw a deliveryman wearing a mask. He had indeed just ordered takeout.

"Sir, your takeout has arrived."

The door opened, and Jingu handed the money to the deliveryman. As their eyes met, the deliveryman suddenly spoke.

"boom"

The door was violently broken down by Naoki Hanyu, and a team of police officers armed with submachine guns and automatic rifles rushed in.

"No one's in the kitchen."

"The restroom is empty."

"No one is in the bedroom."

Naoki Hanyu frowned immediately. Where did they go? Did they run away beforehand?

Just then, a takeout order caught his attention. He picked up the order slip and saw that the order was placed 20 minutes earlier, meaning the person had only been gone a short while.

Naoki Hanyu asked Seiko Akimoto via walkie-talkie, and she told him that her team had gone straight to the apartment's security room to prevent this from happening again.

"Holy Son, look where the target in room 418 has escaped to."

“He ran upstairs four minutes ago.”

"You continue tracking him. Everyone, get him!"

Naoki Hanyu took the lead and ran upstairs, not waiting for his subordinates who were slower; this was a time when every second counted.

"He ran up to the 8th floor."

"13nd Floor."

"Rooftop."

Upon hearing this, Naoki Hanyu ran up to the rooftop, immediately shifting the eagle's gaze.

An eagle soared 80 meters in the air, taking in the 13-story apartment building. Sure enough, it spotted a figure leaping rapidly between the rooftops of the various buildings.

"Got you."

Naoki Hanyu sped off and gave chase.

"Lei Bu"
.
Jingu Nagashi was moving through the towering buildings, thinking he had escaped the police, until he heard a notification through his earpiece from the person who had just tipped him off.

"Be careful, someone's chasing us. They're very fast. It's Naoki Hanyu."

Jingu Nagai looked down at the route he had just taken to escape, then his pupils contracted and locked onto a figure.

"Naoki Hanyu?"

Without hesitation, Jingu charged forward at full speed, leaping 30 meters away and smashing through the tempered glass of the adjacent building to hide inside.

Naoki Hanyu jumped more than 20 meters away and 6 meters high, landing at the spot where Jingu Eigahara had been.

"I won't let you escape."

Leibu
Naoki Hanyu jumped 30 meters away and crashed into the shattered window like a missile.

Thousand-mile ear activated

Soon, exclamations and footsteps rang out.

23 degrees

Naoki Hanyu started running again, this time taking a shortcut to catch up—a straight shortcut.

"Full muscle control"

Its body swells to 2.1 meters tall, with its arms crossed in front.

"Lei Bu"

A white-collar woman was holding a coffee and heading back to her office when a steel door flew past her in the next second, followed by a figure flashing by.

Within a few seconds, a series of impact sounds were heard.

The woman was so frightened that she spilled coffee on her chest.

"what's the situation."

Naoki Hanyu took the shortcut very smoothly, smashing through both glass and steel doors with a single blow.

The company staff who had borrowed the office were so shocked that they rushed out to check, but they only saw a figure from behind.

Naoki Hanyu quickly pushed the car to the other side of the building, and through the window he could see the building next door.

He turned his head and saw Jingu Nagashi at the same angle as him; their eyes met.

Jingu no Eiji muttered a curse.

"damn it."

With a burst of strength from his legs, he smashed through the glass again and landed on the rooftop of the building, which was 15 meters higher than the ground. Naoki Hanyu, of course, jumped down as well.

Just as Naoki Hanyu landed, he felt a strong sense of danger and immediately raised his hand to block.

The next second, the blade sliced ​​into the arm, just one centimeter away from hitting the bone; it was Jingu Nagata who did it.

When Jingu Nagare saw that his sure-kill attack had been blocked, he immediately cursed angrily.

"What kind of monster are you?"

These muscles feel like cutting into steel; they're a damn monster.

Jingu Nagashi managed to pull the katana out of his muscles and swing it again, but this time it was blocked by a fist, leaving Jingu Nagashi in disbelief.

His modern-day sword, capable of cutting through steel, was caught by the palm of a mere mortal.

The fist was already there, and Jingu barely dodged it, but a piece of the concrete railing next to him was knocked off instantly.

“Being strong is not a skill.”

"Snake Killer".

The blade slashed at the enemy's throat with incredible speed and a tricky angle, but stopped a few centimeters away from the throat.

Naoki Hanyu gripped the blade with one hand, rendering his opponent immobile, his expression full of confidence. Meanwhile, his opponent's veins bulged from the force of the pull, and his expression turned ferocious.

"Gotcha, you slippery eel." Lei Bu
A clap of thunder was followed by a kick that struck Jingu Nagashi squarely in the abdomen. He flew thirty meters like a missile and crashed down the building, the sound of the impact still audible.

Just as Naoki Hanyu was about to collect the body, a sense of crisis surged into his heart again, and his body instinctively dodged.

Half a breath later, a barrage of bullets struck the concrete ground. A private helicopter appeared in the distance, and a gunman with a light machine gun was aiming and firing continuously.

"Damn, the new guy arrived so quickly, there must be a mole tipping him off."

As the helicopter drew closer, the gunman tried to find an angle to kill Naoki Hanyu.

"bang bang bang"

The bullet was completely embedded in the cement.

Naoki Hanyu remained calm, controlling his eagle to swoop down and grab the gunman who had fired the shot. The two claws, sharp as blades, pierced into flesh and blood, and then he yanked him away forcefully.

"what"

The gunman fell from a height of 200 meters and looked to be nothing more than a meat patty.

"Damn it, what's going on?"

The white driver, who spoke English, was unaware of the situation, but since the gunman wasn't there, he didn't need to stay.

Unfortunately, before he could escape in his helicopter, a sniper bullet pierced the fuselage, along with his body.

"Bastard, what's going on now?"

The helicopter lost control and crashed on the rooftop of a building, the explosion startling ordinary citizens below.

Naoki Hanyu put away his sniper rifle and went to the edge of the building to try to find Jingu Nagashi's body. It was dozens of meters high, and he had been kicked by Raibu. He must have died after falling down.
As for who shot down the helicopter and how many people it killed, Naoki Hanyu will never admit it. He will simply say that someone fired the shot somewhere unknown.

Naoki Hanyu quickly frowned, because Jingu Hisashi's body was gone, and now they didn't even know if he was dead or alive.

"Are there any other accomplices?"

At the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters, when Naoki Hanyu returned with his team, the three leaders of the Metropolitan Police Department had been waiting for a long time.

Director Koichi Uemura pressed for more information.

"So, did you catch him?"

"Sorry, I kicked the person down from more than ten stories high, but we couldn't find the body later. I guess his accomplices took it away."

Koichi Uemura was somewhat disappointed. According to Genpu Jingu's testimony, Eisei Jingu was one of the masterminds, and now that his fate was unknown, it wasn't quite perfect.

"Alright, the situation is already out of control. Now it's just a matter of how to handle it. Naoki, keep up the good work."

"Yes, Director."

Koichi Uemura patted his junior on the shoulder affectionately.

"From now on, you can just call me Uncle Shangcun in private. I'm almost 60, so I'm old enough to be considered, right?"

Naoki Hanyu wanted to say that it wasn't enough, that he didn't want to acknowledge any more elders, but unfortunately he couldn't say it out loud.

"Yes, Uncle Kamimura."

Shiratori Tensei remained silent to the side, and there was a strange sense of déjà vu about it.

Back then, he also called Naoki Hanyu "uncle" in an attempt to build a closer relationship. Well, the price for that "uncle" was quite high.

Several times I almost lost control of the situation, only to be dragged into it by this guy.

Hopefully, Director Uemura won't regret his actions today; the title of "uncle" is not easy to bear.

Just then, Kenichi Kitano asked.

"Yuzuru, did you shoot down that helicopter?"

"No, from what I observed, it was shot down by heavy weapons, either heavy machine guns or sniper rifles, indicating the involvement of a third party."

Kitano Ken nodded.

"That way we can claim the helicopter crash had nothing to do with the Metropolitan Police Department. So, someone called the police claiming a figure was causing trouble at their company, and..."

Uemura Koichi interrupted Kitano Kenichi.

"The deputy director need not be mentioned. The most important thing now is to let Naoki continue his investigation."

"Yes."

Koichi Uemura gave another instruction to Naoki Hanyu.

“I have already reached an agreement with the Chiba Prefectural Police Headquarters. They will allow the Metropolitan Police Department to conduct law enforcement operations outside the prefecture. You should go and talk to the special task force of the Metropolitan Police Department. If you don’t like it, the Metropolitan Police Department can do it on its own.”

"I understand."

It's surprising that Koichi Uemura had already informed the Chiba Prefecture headquarters beforehand; it seems he's really going all out.

Fortunately, it's Chiba Prefecture, which is next door; otherwise, the Metropolitan Police Department's influence wouldn't be very effective.

Chiba and Kanagawa prefectures are both close to Tokyo and have close economic ties with Tokyo. They even frequently exchange police forces, so some local departments in Tokyo can still have influence in these two prefectures.

Try saying you want to carry out large-scale cross-regional law enforcement in another county, and they'll absolutely ignore the Metropolitan Police Department.

What's wrong with us? We're all local police agencies. Although the Metropolitan Police Department is actually superior, I have reasons to ignore you.

Next up is the Sakura family. With the testimonies of Yukiko Muromachi and Genpu Jingu, it is indeed possible to launch an investigation into the Sakura family.

That evening, Naoki Hanyu served Ryoko Yakushiji like a servant. After all, he needed to ask her about the details of the case, and he wasn't a member of her team. Logically speaking, telling her would be considered leaking secrets, and he would be punished if others found out.

While rubbing those supermodel-long legs, Naoki Hanyu asked ingratiatingly.

"Does Your Majesty find the force sufficient?"

"Not bad, continue."

Ryoko Yakushiji watched with a smile as the man offered his unsolicited favors. An hour later, she sprawled on the sofa like a serpent, asking with a seductive expression.
"You need something from me, right?"

"There is indeed something going on. I've seen you investigate for almost 10 days with no progress at all. Can you tell me about it?"

Ryoko Yakushiji tapped the man's chest with her toe.

"I don't remember you joining the task force."

"Your Majesty, please let me explain."

After Naoki Hanyu finished explaining the Superintendent General's arrangements, Ryoko Yakushiji finally sighed.

"You've definitely run into trouble. Perhaps it would be better for your Metropolitan Police Department to act alone."
