Conan: I'm a zaibatsu in Tokyo

"Are you going to call the police?"

"Yes."

Inspector Megure looked at Masakazu strangely.

What a wind is blowing today! It blew Masakazu to the Metropolitan Police Department, and now he's going to call the police.

"Tell me," Inspector Megure said, watching Masakazu with caution and distrust.

Zheng Yi is not someone who likes to use the law to deal with his opponents.

Therefore, you must be careful of Zheng Yi and not let him take advantage of you.

Inspector Megure adjusted his hat.

The claim that the Metropolitan Police Department is a lackey of the Japanese government has been misunderstood by the public for a long time, and he must not allow the public to continue to misunderstand.

Zheng Yi said, "My company's property has been illegally seized by my employees."

"These are the pieces of evidence I've collected."

He placed a pile of documents on the table.

Inspector Megure glanced at the documents on the table and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Zhengyi!"

Inspector Megure said casually, "Economic crimes are not under my jurisdiction; this falls under the Second Investigation Division."

"Oh?"

Inspector Megure explained the division of responsibilities to Shoichi.

The First Investigation Division is responsible for violent crimes, including murder, robbery, and assault.

The Second Investigation Division is responsible for economic crimes, fraud, and theft.

The Third Investigation Division is responsible for street crimes such as theft and pickpocketing.

Inspector Megure said, "These are all Inspector Nakamori's duties."

"I see." Zheng Yi nodded.

Inspector Megure stood up and said warmly to Shoichi, "How about I take you to the Second Investigation Division?"

He showed unusual enthusiasm, helping Zhengqi to his feet.

He even eagerly gave Zheng Yi directions and opened doors for him, acting just like a lackey.

"You're too kind," Zhengyi said with a smile.

"Of course, of course, it's for the citizens," Inspector Megure said earnestly.

As a police officer, this is what I should do.

"Brother Nakamori!"

"Officer Megure?"

When Inspector Megure arrived at Nakamori's office, he shook Nakamori's hand with a smile.

Nakamori felt a chill on the back of his hand and quickly withdrew it.

"Is there something you need?" Nakamori asked, looking at Megure with suspicion.

I have a feeling this person has ill intentions.

“This is Mr. Shoichi, you should know him, right?” Inspector Megure said, pointing to Shoichi.

Nakamori nodded.

Inspector Megure said with a smile, "Mr. Shoichi's company has had its property illegally seized by its employees, so he's here to report the case."

You must help with the investigation seriously.

Finally, I don't need to worry about Zheng Yi's case anymore.

Megure looked at Nakamori with satisfaction.

Finally, someone took over his responsibilities.

Now the media won't just target me to smear him anymore; my brother Nakamori also needs the media's attention.

"This……"

Nakamori wanted to refuse.

Many police officers in the Metropolitan Police Department do not want to be associated with Masakazu.

Because they don't want to become someone's lackey.

They became police officers for justice!
But his duty left him no choice but to comply.

"cough cough"

Nakamori cleared his throat and said to Masakazu, "Mr. Masakazu, what evidence do you have?"

"Of course."

Zhengyi handed over all the evidence he had collected to Officer Nakamori.

Inspector Nakamori took the evidence materials from Masakazu and began to read them. "Then I'll be going now," Inspector Megure said.

Inspector Nakamori opened his mouth, but didn't know how to stop him, so he could only watch Inspector Megure leave his office with a beaming smile.

Only Nakamori and Masakazu remained in the office.

Nakamori felt extremely uncomfortable.

He walked to the door, opened it halfway, and then returned to his seat.

"There's a smell of smoke in the office, let's get some fresh air out," Officer Nakamori said.

I don't know who I'm explaining this to.

Masayuki nodded, not paying any attention to Inspector Nakamori's actions.

"Ahem~" Officer Nakamori coughed again.

With the door closed, and Zheng Yi in the same office, who knows what the police officers outside will guess.

The door must be open.

He is open and honest, has a clear conscience, and is willing to accept the supervision of all police officers, so that he won't be like some bloated police inspector.

After doing all that, Nakamori finally began to seriously examine the materials.

He made a phone call and summoned a professional police officer.

After reviewing the documents, the officer nodded to Officer Nakamori, indicating that the materials were in good condition.

“Mr. Zhengyi, there is nothing wrong with your materials,” Officer Nakamori said.

"Oh." Zheng Yi nodded.

"Then let's follow the police procedures and not treat me any differently because of my identity."

"Our Metropolitan Police Department will absolutely treat everyone equally!"

Officer Nakamori's voice suddenly rose as he shouted at Masakazu, "If the police confirm that this evidence is true, they will arrest your employee in accordance with the law, absolutely fairly and justly."

Zheng Yi picked at his ear.

Why are you yelling so loudly?
“I still hope for the maximum sentence. What I hate most is a traitor,” Zheng Yi said.

Embezzling company assets.

This is a blatant betrayal of Zheng Yi.

He betrayed Zheng Yi's trust in him, and Zheng Yi hated people who betrayed him the most.

But it's different from Gin.

Zheng Yi is a law-abiding citizen who will only use legal means to arrest the criminal.

The police officer who had been called over by Nakamori said:
“Mr. Zhengyi, if your materials are true, your employee could face up to 10 years in prison.”

"Only ten years?" Zheng Yi frowned.

Although this decade may be longer than imagined, Zheng Yi is still not satisfied.

If the sentence is so lenient, what if other employees follow suit?
Zheng Yi asked, "Can't we use the death penalty?"

"Will not."

The officer stated, "Only when the crime is particularly heinous, the amount involved is exceptionally large, and the impact on society is severe will the court consider imposing a maximum sentence of nearly 10 years."

As for the death penalty…

The officer didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant: the death penalty was impossible.

Zheng Yi rested his arm on the table, clearly dissatisfied with the officer's answer.

“Mr. Zhengyi! The police are only responsible for collecting evidence. How to determine the sentence is the job of the court,” Officer Nakamori said loudly.

After making sure the officers outside could hear him, Nakamori lowered his voice.

He then called over several police officers.

"Mitsui, go to Mr. Masakazu's company to collect evidence and confirm whether these materials are authentic."

"Takeshita, go and summon the prisoner."

"Tanikawa, go and apply for a search warrant, and then search the offices and residences of the employees involved."

Yes! Yes! Yes!

"Mr. Zhengyi, you can wait here," Officer Nakamori said.

"it is good."

Zheng nodded and watched as Zhongsen made himself a cup of tea.

The hands of the clock on the wall have completed one and a half revolutions.

"Beep, beep, beep~"

"Hello? This is Officer Nakamori."

"Inspector Nakamori, something terrible has happened! The employee who embezzled Mr. Masakazu's company property has died in his office!" (End of Chapter)
