Tokyo Detective

Chapter 82 Promotion Examination (Please read it tomorrow)

It was Monday, midsummer, and the weather was sunny.

Naoki Hanyu drove to the Metropolitan Police Department headquarters. Today was the day of the promotion exam.

Candidates from various Metropolitan Police Department stations arrived early in the morning. In fact, Hanyu Naoki did not feel too much pressure on whether he could pass the exam and believed in his own abilities.

The rank of Inspector is the beginning of mid-level police officers in the National Police Agency. The examination is held every three months, and if you fail, you have to wait 12 months before you are eligible again.

Only someone like Naoki Hanyu had to rush to prepare for the exam because of a sudden notice. Generally, the notice is three months to one year in advance to give candidates ample time to prepare.

Thinking about it this way, Naoki Hanyu felt that the person who recommended him was full of malicious intent, and if he was rejected, he would have no hope of promotion within 12 months.

Soon, Naoki Hanyu entered the examination room and sat down in the seat according to his examination number.

The number of people taking this exam is close to 200. Although the number of examinees is large, the success rate is only one-third at most, and it may even be as low as one-fifth.

The ages of the candidates range from 23 to 50 years old, including the young semi-professional group and the generally middle-aged and above non-professional group. As for the age close to retirement, there are different ways of judging.

The morning session is the written test round, which will cover the Constitution, Administrative Law, Police Law, Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure Law, Police Affairs, Community, Life Safety, Criminal Law and other police content.

Next is the practical test, which simulates the actual operations of the police in various important occasions.

The last part is the physical fitness test. The Metropolitan Police Department will divide it into male and female categories, and the intensity will be determined by different departments, some of which are more inclined towards liberal arts, some towards military, etc.

Naoki Hanyu also spotted Akimoto Seiko not far away, but she was closing her eyes and waiting for the exam, like a swordsman waiting for a duel, so he did not disturb her.

In the afternoon, Naoki Hanyu walked out of the physical fitness test site with ease. The test was finally over. Apart from the pressure from the written test, the rest was not a problem at all.

His current physique is really strong. Even he was shocked by the test data.

He is 1.86 meters tall, 1 centimeter taller, weighs 85 kilograms, and can carry 350 kilograms, which makes him one of the top strongmen in his previous life.

With the bonus of C-level fighting skills, his punching power reaches the peak strength of a boxing champion, 700 pounds.

Unknowingly, his physique has reached the limit of humans in his previous life, and it has developed in a hexagonal manner. His endurance is 10 points stronger than his strength and speed.

However, it is still not enough in this world. Let me set a small goal first, to surpass Ryoma Sakata in strength.

Just as Hanyu Naoki was about to drive to find a place to eat, an ordinary black car parked on the side of the road came into view. Akimoto Seiko opened the hood of the car and was looking at it with a serious face.

Hanyu Naoki asked as he stopped the car.

"Son, do you want to help?"

Akimoto Seiko looked at her relaxed partner suspiciously. She had never heard that Hanyu Naoki could repair cars, but judging from his expression, he should have done well in the test.

"Can you fix it?"

"Don't worry, I've done some research on this, and at least it won't make the situation worse."

A moment later, black smoke billowed from the engine.

"."

The two looked at each other, and Hanyu Naoki said with a sunny smile.

"If you mess up, I'll call a tow truck for you. Don't worry, I'll pay for it. I'll pay for it."

Akimoto Seiko shook his head and refused.

"No, I'll do it myself."

"Okay, I'll take you wherever you want to go."

"I'm going back to my hometown in Yokohama. It's too far."

"It doesn't matter. It's just that short distance."

In the SUV, Akimoto Seiko, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly asked.

"The case is closed, what do you think?"

"What can I do? I've been kicked out of the task force. Whether I get married or not has nothing to do with me."

The task force closed the case two days ago, and the result was that they found evidence from the Jianghe Club that the president hired assassins twice. It was a bit far-fetched to say that such a major case that shocked the whole country was taken over by a medium-sized underworld organization. However, all the police involved knew that the person behind it was definitely not just a gangster.

But there is nothing we can do. There is decisive evidence, and the higher-ups don't want any more trouble. If there is another fierce street fight, the country's image will be ruined. So they closed the case hastily, at least to give the people a perfunctory explanation.

Or maybe kicking him out of the task force was planned by some people. After all, he was really good at causing trouble, and there was a possibility that other troubles would arise.

By the way, Ito Shushin has been away from Tokyo for many days. He is sometimes in Kanto and sometimes in Kansai. Hanyu Naoki can't find a chance to visit him.

"Shengzi, after the promotion, the director asked me to be the head of the Criminal Division. What are your plans?"

"Maybe I'll be assigned to the headquarters, or maybe I'll stay at the Daejeon General Office. Anyway, everything will depend on passing the exam. I might get rejected."

"Don't count me out, I'm full of confidence."

The two chatted and came to Akimoto Seiko's hometown, Isezaki Chojamachi, Yokohama City.

Yokohama City is a city with a population of 23 million, second only to Tokyo's 380 wards. Although it belongs to Kanagawa Prefecture, it often plays with Tokyo and is regarded as Tokyo's own outer port.

His relationship with Kanagawa Prefecture is like that between Suzhou and Nanjing, and his relationship with Tokyo is like that between Suzhou and Shanghai.

Akimoto Seiko's hometown is located in the city center. It is a large house covering an area of 400 square meters. Hanyu Naoki couldn't help but look at the pretty face of the policewoman. He didn't expect her family to have some background. As for visiting, forget it.

When Naoki Hanyu put Seiko Akimoto down and was about to leave, a middle-aged woman suddenly appeared. Although time had left traces on the woman's face, she still had charm and looked very similar to Seiko Akimoto.

The woman's name is Akimoto Mako, and she is the mother of Akimoto Seiko.

"Son, who is this gentleman?"

"Mom, he is my partner, Naoki Hanyu."

Since I met Naoki Hanyu, I couldn't just leave, so I could only get out of the car and say hello.

"Hello, Auntie. My name is Hanyu Naoki. I'm a friend of Seiko. I just happened to be passing by to send her back."

When the lady heard the word "friend", she immediately perked up and greeted him with a smile on her face.

"It's Naoki-kun. I've heard about you from Shengzi a long time ago. We just finished cooking, why don't you stay and have a quick meal?"

Naoki Hanyu refused instinctively.

"No, I have things to do."

Mako Akimoto grabbed her daughter's colleague's arm.

"It's just a simple meal. It won't take up much of your time. The Holy Son hasn't brought friends back for a long time."

Naoki Hanyu really wanted to refuse, but Mako Akimoto's hands holding his were so strong, like steel. Were they women's hands?

Facing the look from her partner, Seiko Akimoto explained in tacit understanding.

"My mother was the head of the third violence department of the fourth investigation section. She was not only a sixth-degree black belt, but also an eighth-degree kendo master. She once knocked down dozens of gangsters with a water pipe."

Huh? A water pipe? Knocked down dozens of people?

Is the eighth degree in kendo so powerful?
Although Hanyu Naoki didn't practice kendo much, he knew that one had to be over 55 years old to master this skill. Although his skills had reached the pinnacle of kendo, his strength should have declined.

Besides, Akimoto Mako is actually 55 years old, but she doesn’t look like it. Is she an ageless woman?

Just by looking at her partner's eyes, Akimoto Seiko had roughly guessed what he meant.

"My mother is 49 years old this year. Kendo doesn't actually require a certain age as you outsiders imagine. As long as you are strong enough, you can defeat a few more old men."

Upon hearing this, Naoki Hanyu silently raised his thumb, awesome.

When Akimoto Mako, who was standing by, heard her daughter talking about her privacy, she immediately complained angrily, acting like a girl.

"How can you, Holy Son, tell my mother's age? Others say you and I are like sisters."

"."

　Tomorrow is the day I decide to try to push for promotion. Although it is probably hopeless judging by the number of collections, I am still here to ask for follow-up reading tomorrow.
