Tokyo Detective

Chapter 396 I almost killed myself
Before the two women could continue their conversation, Naoki Hanyu, who had been being dragged, suddenly grabbed them both, one in each arm, and ran quickly into the house, his speed astonishing everyone else.

The first clone, who was standing on the wall, put down his sniper rifle and started talking to his companion through the communicator.

"Only when you become the enemy do you realize how difficult it is to kill the main body. Not only is the skull too hard, but the Kennedy necklace also defends against three headshots. The internal organs only suffer penetrating wounds and recover quickly."

The second clone next to him coldly pulled out a rocket launcher.

"I don't care if he lives or dies, I'll just eat my fill first."

The third clone spat out a curse.

"Reducing the gunpowder makes it difficult to kill the main body. Are you such a coward that you don't dare to take a direct hit? I'm just being discriminatory."

Before the third clone could finish speaking, he was hit in the neck by a bullet and fell to the ground.
.
Inside the mansion, seeing that her senior was alright, tears of joy streamed down Fujiwara Mai's face.

"Senior, weren't you shot in the chest?"

Naoki Hanyu pulled out a pistol and fired a shot at his fully armed clone.

“Being shot is being shot, and dying is dying; these are two different things.”

Before Fujiwara Mai could press further, a sense of crisis arose in Hanyu Naoki's mind. He instantly threw the two women away, followed by a terrifying explosion that destroyed the wall and swallowed Hanyu Naoki.

The explosion even caused Naoki Hanyu to lose consciousness, but before he fell into a coma, he cursed his clone's ancestors for eighteen generations, saying, "What the hell, now they're using a rocket launcher?"

Naoki.

"senior."

Seiko Akimoto and the others hurriedly dug through the soil and soon unearthed a man covered in blood and unconscious.

This scene directly damaged the morale of the resistance team. Now, not only is the fate of Naoki Hanyu, one of the core members, unknown, but the enemy also has such a deadly weapon as a rocket launcher.

Now, how are we supposed to fight? They only have a few pistols.

Just as some people were considering whether to escape, Shiratori Ten'ei and his son suddenly took out a batch of weapons from their home, including submachine guns and automatic rifles. The group of people who had been given the new equipment were dumbfounded.

Does your family own an arms shop?
Shiratori Ten'ei offered a cold explanation.

"These weapons are approved."

The high-ranking police officer fired an automatic rifle at the "criminals" outside. He was furious, not only because his birthday had been ruined, but also because his junior colleague had been seriously injured.

For a moment, it seemed like the two sides were at a stalemate, but of course this was just an illusion; the clones were retreating as they fought like the sea.

Of course, everyone thought this change meant that the enemy was not confident of taking down the enemy before the police arrived, so they retreated directly, leaving behind no one of their killed comrades.

Less than two minutes later, the sound of police sirens came from outside, which relieved the survivors. Although several people were hit by bullets, none of them were in fatal positions. With current medical technology, they would recover in at most half a month. The only seriously injured person was Naoki Hanyu.

Furthermore, this firefight can be considered a merit, and some people might even get promoted, since the enemy is a vicious thug equipped with rocket launchers.

Police and ambulances arrived quickly, and cordons were set up. The ambulances took the injured to the hospital, which was the Matsumoto Family Hospital, not far away, the hospital of Naoki Hanyu's father-in-law.

This large-scale assassination of high-ranking police officials shocked the entire city of Tokyo and even Japan. Not only did the Metropolitan Police Department and the National Police Agency work overtime, but the cabinet was also alerted because the case was so heinous.

One of the three leaders, the Superintendent General, was injured; the Deputy Superintendent General died; and Shiratori Tensei sustained minor injuries.

There were even more ministerial-level deaths: the newly appointed Minister of Public Security died, the Minister of Home Affairs and Safety died, the Minister of Security was injured, the Minister of Regional Affairs was injured, the Director-General of the Crime Suppression Headquarters died, and the Deputy Minister of Criminal Investigation was seriously injured and fell into a coma.

With only about 500 police superintendents nationwide, the fact that seven have been killed or injured is the worst police killing case in Japan since the 1960s.

The cabinet meeting began at midnight, and the Commissioner General of Police and the Superintendent General of Police were specifically summoned.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Takamori Masada, still in charge of process coordination, began to hold the two police chiefs accountable.

"Both of you are pillars of the police system. I wonder what your thoughts are on the heinous incident that occurred tonight. Chief Inspector Uemura, you can speak first."

With his arm wrapped in bandages, Koichi Uemura knew he should speak tough and convince the cabinet that the Metropolitan Police Department was capable of redeeming itself. However, when he learned that even Naoki Hanyu was seriously injured, he had absolutely no confidence.

He hadn't received a single tip about the large-scale assassination attempt that happened tonight, and the high-ranking officials were almost wiped out without him even realizing it. This made him doubt his own abilities, feel exhausted, and even have the thought that retiring now might be a good thing.

"I don't know the perpetrator's motives, and I have no idea who the suspect is. I'm really sorry, it was my dereliction of duty."

These words caused everyone present to frown; this was no ordinary case of lazy governance.

The newly appointed Minister of Agriculture and Forestry, Jiro Ogura, is even more dissatisfied with this. He is the son of Ichiro Ogura, the prime minister in 08.

Prime Minister Kitahara Takashi rebuked him in a deep voice.

"Do you know what nonsense you're spouting? Everyone else is carrying out assassinations using rocket launchers, and you don't even have a suspect? How did you become the Metropolitan Police Department's superintendent?" Koichi Uemura bowed again.

"I'm really sorry."

Kitahara Takashi didn't know whether to be happy or angry when he saw that the Superintendent General of Police had really backed down. He was angry because it showed that Uemura Koichi was incompetent, but he was happy because this way he could control Uemura Koichi and even replace the Superintendent General of Police.

"Commander Ohno, what's your opinion?"

Police Chief Yoshino lowered his head.

"Our police department has not discovered anything about this case either, but according to our intelligence, we have received some information that this case is likely the work of terrorists."

Regardless of whether it was done by terrorists or not, the final result can only be that it was done by terrorists.

After hearing what Yoshinaga Ohno said, the cabinet discussed the matter and made a decision.

"The case is being handled by the National Police Agency, with the Metropolitan Police Department providing full cooperation. We must catch the real culprit."

Koichi Uemura had no objection to this; even the Metropolitan Police Department's Dragon was seriously injured, and none of his subordinates were confident they could solve the case.

The next morning, when Naoki Hanyu opened his eyes, he saw the familiar ceiling, which he had seen far too many times.

"A hospital?"

Just as Naoki Hanyu was about to get up, he realized someone was lying on top of him. It was Seiko Akimoto, who had fallen asleep on him, wearing the same clothes as yesterday.

Naoki Hanyu reached out and touched his girlfriend's hair, frowning as he felt excruciating pain, as if he had been dismembered.

An hour later, Seiko Akimoto woke up from her sleep and was delighted to find Naoki Hanyu staring at her.

"You're awake. I'll go get the doctor now."

"No need to rush, thank you for staying with me tonight."

"It wasn't just me, Mai was there too, but I sent her back. How are you feeling?"

Naoki Hanyu carefully sensed the situation and found it to be better than he had imagined.

"You're in great health, you're absolutely fantastic."

Just then, the familiar sound of high heels came from outside the door, and the next second, Mitsuha Jingu walked in, dressed in a doctor's uniform, with dark circles under her eyes as well.

"Of course you think it's great, but I had to come over and work 7 hours to remove all the little fragments from your body, a total of 31 pieces."

"So many?"

To act, Naoki Hanyu didn't use any special abilities; he simply endured the attacks with his bare body. Unexpectedly, his clones were also incredibly ruthless.

Jingu Mitsuha sat down in the chair and stared at Akimoto Seiko for a few seconds.

"No outsiders were involved in this surgery, so you don't have to worry about anyone knowing your secret. I clearly said a long time ago that I didn't want to perform the surgery on you. The skin and muscles there are hard and difficult to cut, and the recovery is very fast. It really made my back ache."

"Thanks a lot."

Jingu Mitsuha stood up again and patted her bottom.

"No need to thank me. After all, our relationship is what it is. I'm going back to sleep. I'll leave the rest to my girlfriend."

"."

Akimoto Seiko's eyes turned cold. What did she mean by "legitimate" or "illegitimate"? Was this a direct challenge to her?

Naoki Hanyu pretended to ignore the cold gaze, but thankfully Mitsuha Jingu arrived and left quickly, otherwise he would have faced a new battleground.

“Holy Son, I’m hungry.”

"Okay, I'll go get you some food now. Oh, and if you can get out of bed the day after tomorrow, you can attend the memorial service."

Memorial service?
Naoki Hanyu found it strange that a murderer would attend a victim's memorial service, and not just one.

As Naoki Hanyu's hospitalization continued, public opinion grew increasingly heated. The near-beheading of the police system in a country's capital was no less serious than the assassination of a former president.

Tokyo was immediately placed under martial law, with a large number of police searching for the perpetrator in Tokyo and the surrounding areas. The news these past two days has also been about this case.
