Son of the Stars

Chapter 71 Premonition of Failure

Watanabe is a professional, and not just any "professional".

The job of this middle-aged widower from Dongsang is the Chief of the Investigation Section [-] of the General Investigation Bureau Headquarters - Serious Commercial Crime and Fraud Investigation Section.

Watanabe himself is actually not very good at combat, especially not good at close-range shooting and indoor melee.Unlike other Dongsang people who worked in the General Investigation Bureau, Watanabe was not a physical faction from a sports team.Rather than sweating, he personally prefers to use his own brain to deal with problems.

Investigating fraud and uncovering elaborate hoaxes is Watanabe's day job—and his passion.

Watanabe's greatest hobby is to expose the conspiracies and tricks of those criminals who think they are clever.Then I watched them sweating profusely, nervous and desperate, and even swearing in embarrassment.

And the reason why he started to deal with Lu Chen and others was because of a misunderstanding - the United Insurance Company determined that the serious damage to the collider and its ancillary buildings was intentionally caused, so it went directly to the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau on the day of the explosion reported the case.

Therefore, Watanabe sent his fellow countryman and subordinate Fujimoto Eiji to Chuo University to investigate.His task should have been to conduct careful investigation and research to determine whether Tang Qinglong and other senior leaders of the Institute of Physics deliberately caused the accident or even planned the explosion in this accident.

When being questioned by Fujimoto, Tang Qinglong did not directly inform him that Lu Chen was involved in it—Old Tang wanted to save the student's boyfriend from being tormented, but Fujimoto believed that Tang Qinglong was covering up the biggest suspect.

Fujimoto quickly implemented surveillance and other investigative methods on Lu Chen, and discovered that they seemed to be related to the demonstration hospital bombing that just happened.This serious crime that caused thousands of deaths may be related to Tang Qinglong and Lu Chen who he "instigated".

The situation is urgent, and Lu Chen already has the expectation that "he will be detained by the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau for questioning".In order to prevent Lu Chen, Tang Qinglong and others from destroying evidence and obstructing the investigation, Fujimoto quickly came forward, directly verbally summoned and arrested Lu Chen, Yang Weimin and others.

Due to Tang Qinglong's special status, Watanabe himself took over the investigation of him.And Lu Chen was handed over to a few investigators who had just joined the job to "grind their temper".

Only then did I repeatedly ask questions and record repeatedly all night, but it was a "torture journey" that did not allow me to rest.

On the second day, Lu Chen met Watanabe who had completed the investigation, and Watanabe brought him into his field of vision.

In fact, even the contact between Li Xiaohui, Lu Chen and others was not entirely for the purpose of studying the pathogenesis of the Great Crash.Li Xiaohui is the youngest chief physician of the National Mental Health Center, and has a huge advantage in the field of research and judgment of mental state.

At the same time, Director Li Xiaohui is also an in-staff consultant of the Second Division of the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau, who is responsible for training and assisting the work of various departments of the Second Division of the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau.

[Is it appropriate for you to tell us this kind of thing now? 】Lu Chen interrupted Watanabe's "self-report", he typed on the screen and asked, 【Is this the internal information of the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau? 】

【Your level of secrecy is high enough now, and only I can answer these things. 】Watanabe replied,【The operation of transplanting back to the body is still risky, this is my plan to fight against risks. 【

Watanabe's body is receiving supportive treatment, although it is very difficult, but with the assistance of the simulated machine, the body does maintain biological activity-and began to repair itself.

Watanabe, who had just regained his sobriety, sent a warning to the North American Comprehensive Investigation Bureau through Lu Chen and Tang Qinglong, and suddenly changed the subject and started talking about the "story" between them.

[There have been disputes about you within the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau, but they were all disputes out of a responsible attitude towards work. 】Watanabe continued, 【This is also a common problem of intelligence agencies - we don't understand technology, but we understand people's hearts.Now that you have come up with concrete evidence, there is no need to worry about the attitude of the Comprehensive Investigation Bureau. 】

[As long as you don’t bring a bomb openly and plan to blow up the academic committee or the joint government headquarters building, everyone will do their best to support you. 】Watanabe's "typing" speed slowed down, and he said after a while, 【I feel a little strange. 】

【Is there anything uncomfortable about you? ] Lu Chen quickly became tense. He subconsciously lowered his head to look for the vital signs monitoring equipment, and then realized that there was absolutely nothing wrong with Watanabe's body.

Now he doesn't have a body to "suffer" at all.

[I'm... indifferent, indifferent. 】Watanabe tried to convey his pain, 【I am discussing something closely related to you and myself.But I can't feel my emotions change.I'm not angry, I'm not sorry, I'm not struggling, and I'm not embarrassed. 】

[I feel like an efficient machine now, like an AI with an independent personality, like everything except a human. 】Watanabe's expression is clear and direct, and there is a hint of "shudder", 【Theoretically speaking, I should feel nervous or even scared now.But what I'm thinking about is how to take advantage of this state of indifference. 】

【for example……? ] Lu Chen asked cautiously, 【How do you make use of your indifferent state? 】

While chatting with Watanabe, he slightly raised the level of adrenaline in the artificial blood.

[I estimate that the North American branch's arrest operation will be a complete failure.The officers involved in the arrest suffered a large number of casualties, and Anton will probably be dismissed or even sentenced for this. 】Watanabe said,【Such casualties are regrettable, but at the same time it is a good thing. 】

[Can this be a good thing? ] Yang Weimin took the keyboard and asked, 【Our strength has been weakened, how can this be a good thing? 】

[The North American Division is the only regional department that is not directly under the General Administration. 】Watanabe's answer was concise and to the point,【This department has a long history of hundreds of years, as well as its own style of doing things.And the confidence to ensure that they can maintain a distance and difference from the General Administration is their own strength. 】

[The North American region and its branches here have been outside the coalition government management system for too long, to the point where some people have begun to have adventurous ideas that they shouldn't have. 】Row after row of white text appeared on the screen. Looking at these words, Lu Chen felt a chill rising up behind him.

[I have already reminded them, although I am sure that such a reminder will not have any effect. ] A line of words was reflected in Lu Chen's retina, and the retina converted the light signal into a bioelectrical signal that the nervous system could understand, and then formed a cold sentence in Lu Chen's brain. [Their failure will eventually become a harbinger of North America's true integration into the coalition government. 】
