Tokyo Detective

Chapter 56 Being targeted
July 5th, Saturday.

Today's Tokyo is sunny and the traces of the typhoon have long disappeared. Even the congressman Jiro Kawatani, who died on the day of the typhoon, was said to have died when his house collapsed during the typhoon, and he was buried in the ruins along with his son and grandson.

The reason why the Kawatani family case was suppressed by the government was that no ordinary people knew about it on the day it happened, and the special attack team was also issued a gag order, so the absolutely sensational news was hidden silently, and the six major TV stations were also ordered not to be involved in the investigation of Kawatani Jiro.

The news that a congressman and his entire family were killed, along with 13 security guards, was too serious, not to mention that given previous experience, it was likely that the murderer would not be found. The subsequent terrible impact made the ruling party and the opposition party tacitly work together to conceal the matter.

Only the highway bridge, which is still under repair, is telling the world about the progress of Typhoon Golden Monkey.

12 noon, Meguro Ward, Meguro River area.

Naoki Hanyu walked out of the mall carrying a big bag of things. He had just moved into his new home on his day off, so he was buying some new daily necessities. As for the old ones, he had thrown away everything.

New home, new life.

As Hanyu Naoki was walking, a poster on a nearby public service billboard caught his attention. There were three freshly-released posters from the Metropolitan Police Department, and they looked very familiar.

The first poster shows him saluting, looking handsome and majestic in a neat police uniform, with a slogan that reads "Serve the People, Servant of the People".

The second poster shows Seiko Akimoto, who squats down and gently comforts a lost child. The smile on her face is full of maternal love, which would really make people who don’t know the truth mistakenly think that she is a good woman.

"Everyone's friend, I will stand firm to protect your smiling face."

The third one is a poster that entices young people to become police officers, and beautiful female police officers appear quite frequently in the poster.

Hanyu Naoki shook his head and held back his complaints. This poster was extremely ironic. Not to mention that he himself was not a good person, Akimoto Seiko would not want to protect your smiling face. The selection of the guys had terrible vision.

By the way, Akimoto Seiko will soon no longer be a member of the Hanaka Police Station. She will take the promotion exam in more than 10 days. She has now been transferred to the special task force to help, and her future career looks promising.

The so-called special task force was the gangster task force that was re-formed to investigate the death of Kawatani Jiro. Although the number of people was nearly half of the last time, only about a hundred people, the quality was definitely better than last time. After all, a congressman and a gangster were too different in weight.

As for why he was not transferred as well, Hanyu Naoki believes there are two reasons.

The first one was that he fell out of favor because he rejected Shiratori Tenrong last time, saying that even he couldn't do it, and no one else could. In terms of the results, it was not wrong, and the investigation team did not make any progress, but it was too crazy.

The second reason, which Naoki Hanyu believes is the most likely, is that the task force believes that he is also a suspect.

He had recently had a lot of grievances with both victims and was one of the most suspicious targets.

Although there was an alibi when the madman committed the crime, it is still suspected that he was an accomplice of the madman. Bazooka climbed onto the rooftop before anyone else that night, which can be understood as supporting the murderer. Yesterday he found signs that he was being investigated.

Of course, all of this is speculation, and the task force probably still had no clues on that day.

In fact, if he were in charge, let alone looking for clues when there was no progress, even if there was a direction for investigation, he would arrange people to follow up and investigate this kind of person who kept jumping around.

Cast the net wide, catch as many fish as possible, and choose the best.

Therefore, Naoki Hanyu is very clear that he can no longer jump around and must stay calm in the near future.

As for asking Akimoto Seiko for information, it is even more impossible because the policewoman will not leak information to "outsiders".

At this moment, a familiar voice was heard. Hanyu Naoki turned his head and found a familiar figure appeared in his sight.

Wearing a white T-shirt and tight jeans, her long fiery red hair is still beautiful. She is none other than Arimura Takako, with whom she once had a one-night stand.

The other party was also holding the hand of a 7-year-old girl, who also had fiery red hair, cute facial features, and a very sweet smile.

Charming mother, lovely child, people who don’t know the situation would think they are real mother and daughter.

Is this her stepdaughter Arimura Reiya?

The two chatted and laughed, and Arimura Takako soon discovered Hanyu Naoki's presence. She was a little surprised by their sudden encounter. "Hello, Mr. Hanyu, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Hello Ms. Arimura, I moved to live nearby and came to buy some daily necessities."

When Arimura Takako heard that he lived nearby, she couldn't help but show a hint of panic on her face.

"Moving here to live?"

"Yes, it's at No. 11 Songfeng Street."

At this moment, a middle-aged man came out of the mall and picked up Arimura Reiya with a smile on his face. The man was about 40 years old, tall and strong, and a very charming womanizer.

"Takako, is this gentleman your friend?"

Naoki Hanyu had investigated Arimura Takako and of course recognized that the man was Arimura Takako's husband, the wealthy Arimura Danzaburo.

It owns a group called Future Academy, which specializes in operating private schools. It owns more than 10 private schools, ranging from kindergarten to high school.

But meeting him in person was really surprising. He turned out to be a red-named person. He looked well-educated and polite. It really shows that you cannot judge a person by his appearance.

Naoki Hanyu reached out to say hello.

"Hello, my name is Naoki Hanyu, and I'm a police officer."

"Hello, my name is Arimura Danzaburo, Takako's husband. Oh, I remember, you are the police hero who saved people in the news. You are such an admirable hero."

Naoki Hanyu looks humble.

"No, no, I'm just a policeman doing my best. I just moved to the nearby area today."

Arimura Danzaburo was a little surprised to hear that they were moving nearby. How could a small policeman afford to live there?
Meguro Ward is a wealthy area, and this area is the most expensive in Meguro Ward. The average house price is as high as 150 million per square meter. Only some places in the core three districts are more expensive than here. Even renting is a huge pressure for ordinary middle-class people.

"So we are neighbors. We should get to know each other better."

As the two men chatted, Naoki Hanyu realized that Arimura's house was actually not far from his own, only a few hundred meters away on the same street. It was really a fate.

Arimura Danzaburo suddenly extended an invitation.

"There will be a barbecue party at my house at 5pm. It's a gathering for people who live on the same street. I hope Mr. Hanyu can attend. It's a good opportunity to meet future friends."

Hanyu Naoki glanced at the woman who was hesitant to speak, and finally nodded in agreement. Although he really didn't want to disturb the other person's life, he couldn't not go to the neighbor's party on the same street.

After all, this street is a rich street. The cheapest house is his at 1.8 million yuan, while the other houses are at least 2.5 million yuan or more, and some top-of-the-line houses are even worth more than 10 billion yuan.

After both parties said goodbye, the two men's expressions changed immediately.

Arimura Danzaburo held his quiet daughter in his arms and spoke coldly to his wife who was only in name.

"I don't care about anything else, just don't let others affect the family, understand?"

"I see."

Arimura Takako couldn't help but clench her fists. It would be fine if the other party questioned her, but this kind of ignoring was what she hated the most. The man had been treating her like this since the day of their wedding.

As for the daughter, Arimura Reiya was very nervous, not sure whether she was aware of the relationship between her parents or because she was being held by her father.
