Chapter 394 Investigation Target: Mud Gathering
Makoto Kusakabe is investigating the bombing case that Rei Furuya is willing to drop everything to investigate.

He noticed that the bombing case currently being handled by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department was suspected to be committed by the same perpetrator as the bombing cases three and seven years ago, and thus confirmed the identities of the two police officers who died in the line of duty at those times.

Kenji Ogihara, a member of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Security Division.

Jinpei Matsuda, Inspector of the First Investigation Division, Criminal Investigation Department, Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

The cause of death of these two people made Makoto Kusakabe's brow twitch and a hint of anger appear in his eyes—because Kenji Ogihara and Jinpei Matsuda died from the same cause: they were killed by a trick played by the bomber.

The bomber would deliberately prepare two bombs. He would intentionally let the police officers enter to disarm the first one, and then tell the officers that if the bomb was not disarmed, the full name of the next explosion location would be slowly revealed in the last three seconds.

Kenji Ogihara and Jinpei Matsuda were killed in the explosion because they were waiting for the name of the explosion site to be transmitted at the last second.

—No, how could these two truly good people be related to the inherently evil Furuya Rei?

Makoto Kusakabe frowned and began investigating the files of the two men.

Then, he was startled again because he noticed that the two people were from the Onizuka Class of the Metropolitan Police Academy, and that class had five members, two of whom were Kenji Ogihara and Jinpei Matsuda.

The remaining three are Rei Furuya, Kagemitsu Morofushi, and Wataru Date.

Makoto Kusakabe had dealt with Rei Furuya and had also met Hiromitsu Morofushi. He knew that Morofushi had died in the line of duty, so he couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "How come all the good police officers are dead?"
They then turned their attention to the case of Air Ida, and subsequently discovered that Air Ida had died in a traffic accident.

However, there seems to be something wrong with the traffic accident that led to Date Wataru's death, because it involves the chairman of the Mud Sankai, Kido Natsufusa, who was at the height of his power at the time and whose connections with the Metropolitan Police Department's Fourth Investigation Division were only deeper than they are now.

It's likely that Date Wataru was murdered by Oni-do Natsubo because he was investigating Oni-do Natsubo, and the matter was hastily resolved.

—The death rate at the police academy isn't that high, is it? How could four out of five people in a class die?

Makoto Kusakabe's brow furrowed slightly.
He was thinking about how to make Furuya Rei look bad, but as he pondered, his focus shifted to the Muddy Sand Association, because he felt that the Muddy Sand Association seemed to deserve to die more than Furuya Rei, if Date Wataru really died at the hands of the Muddy Sand Association.

At least Furuya Rei is still doing some work, but this Muddy Association isn't doing anything at all.

Originally, Makoto Kusakabe had been targeting organized crime, but before he could even deal with the Muddy Sankai, Futakaba was arrested. Later, he partnered with Chen En to fight against organized crime as well.
First, he took down the Ghost Tiger Group, then cooperated with Chen En to eliminate the Steel Society, and the Mud Ginseng Society undoubtedly fit his target criteria.

"...It's time to activate the assistants."

Makoto Kusakabe said in a low voice.

He sent Chen En a message.

------

Chen En received the message.
He glanced at the document concerning Kusakabe Makoto's request for him to investigate the Mud Conference, and his eyelids twitched involuntarily when he saw the attached file on Date Wataru's death nail and the suspicious points circled by Kusakabe Makoto.

—Compared to the other organizations he dealt with, the Mud Ginseng Society was too weak and had too little presence.

Even though Chen En knew that the Mud Ginseng Society was one of the three major underworld forces supported by a mysterious force to deal with him, he didn't focus much attention on it. After all, his energy was limited.

Some things can't be solved by drinking coffee; he has to prioritize the tasks he needs to do.

However, now that it can be confirmed that Date Wataru's death is most likely directly related to the Muddy Sand Association, then the Muddy Sand Association does indeed need to be dealt with. But he doesn't need to take action himself, because as long as Furuya Rei knows about this, there is no reason for Furuya Rei not to take action himself.

—The Black Organization's identity and mission are certainly important,

However, Rei Furuya would even arrest fugitives wanted by the Japanese Public Security Bureau for Yuya Kazami during his normal time, which shows that Rei Furuya actually has a lot of free time, enough to earn him the title of "King of Part-Time Workers." But not now.

Let's do it a little later, a little later still. Rei Furuya has things to do right now.

------

Furuya Rei was filled with rage.

He knew his emotions shouldn't be controlled by anger, but that's just the kind of emotional person he is. He could choose to confront the almost identical rye whiskey head-on, even when the Ferris wheel was in imminent danger of being destroyed.
He harbored deep resentment towards Rye Whiskey because Morofushi Kagemitsu used the Rye Whiskey gun to commit suicide.

Now, realizing that his former friends Kenji Ogiwara and Jinpei Matsuda had both died at the hands of this group of bombers, he couldn't control his rage and decided to act alone, determined to eliminate the bombers directly.

Anyway, Kazami Yuya is available whenever needed, even when there are no concerts.

In the end, it will simply be said that Kazami Yuya solved the case, and the credit will be given to Kazami Yuya. The high-ranking officials of the Japanese Public Security Bureau will not say anything about it, because those high-ranking officials have all degenerated.

Otherwise, he would have been discovered long ago to have abandoned his investigation mission in Nishitama City, violating regulations and discipline.

"Tell me, where are the other bombs planted?"

Rei Furuya's voice was cold.

He lifted the criminal in front of him with one hand, making no attempt to conceal his malice. The other three bomb-wielding criminals in the room were already lying on the ground, and if it weren't for the rise and fall of their chests, people might have thought that Furuya Rei had just killed them.

The only explosives criminal in the room who could still speak normally was the one held by Furuya Rei, but he was also bruised and battered.

"No, there are no other bombs."

The criminal said,

"There was none from the beginning. We were not the perpetrators of the bombing three years ago. We just used their names to carry out the explosion in order to get an opportunity to rob the post office!"

"There's no other reason. Those other bombs you mentioned simply don't exist!"

—Does it not exist?

Rei Furuya froze, then released his grip, letting the criminal fall to the ground.

He then covered his head with his hands, feeling that the psychological impact of the black mask had not completely faded. Was it because of the trauma he had experienced, or because his anger had completely clouded his judgment?
Rei Furuya was puzzled until a message appeared on his phone.

Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers have set up a perimeter at the post office and apprehended all the bomb-related suspects. They're now heading in your direction. Should I give them a heads-up for you?

[Sender: Yuya Kazami]

Rei Furuya remained silent for a moment, but still replied to the message.

【it is good. 】
