Ke Xue: The thief Cao is actually myself

Chapter 498 The privilege of genius! (Monthly ticket requested!)
"besides……"

Taking in the expression on his face, Bai Ye's eyes flashed with a strange color, "Look at their hand movements. Although they seem to be pushing the crowd in front of them like everyone else, trying to break through the police line to see 'Okino Yoko' who is suspected to be in the car, the hands of the three of them are always intentionally or unintentionally reaching out to the window of the van, as if they are waiting for some opportunity, or sending some kind of signal."

Officer Megure stroked his chin, thought for a moment and then said, "Brother Bai Ye, your analysis does make sense, but who was the signal sent to? You know, there was no one else in the van except the escorting police officer and Moriya Teiji."

It couldn't be that those people were sending signals to the personnel accompanying Moritani Teiji?

Can't you?
Even though the policemen in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department are useless, they are not enough to collude with a murderer!
Moreover, when carrying out the mission, he also specially arranged several police officers who had never come into contact with Moritani Teiji to escort him, in order to avoid the possibility that someone would secretly harm him because of anger at Moritani Teiji's previous actions.

He had considered everything he should have considered, so he really didn't think that those three people were sending signals to his subordinates.

Well, the problem is coming.

If those three people were not passing signals to the police officers in charge of the escort, then who were they passing signals to?

Bai Ye smiled slightly, dragged the screen forward a little, pointed at the van in the screen and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the signal is likely to be sent to Moriya Teiji himself. As a well-known architectural designer, although what he did this time is outrageous to both humans and gods, and is intolerable to heaven, there are always some people who don't want to see him die."

Voltaire, known as the "King of French Thought" and "The Conscience of Europe", once said a famous saying: "True geniuses can make mistakes without being blamed. This is their privilege."

This sentence seems somewhat arbitrary, but if we use it to describe the great figures in history, it does make some sense.

For example: Tian Khan Li Shimin launched the "Xuanwu Gate Incident" and killed his brother Li Jiancheng, but it still did not affect his glorious image of "a wise ruler"; the empress Wu Zetian killed countless people throughout her life, even her own son and daughter were not spared, but during her reign, social productivity developed steadily, so she can still receive the most pertinent evaluation from later generations; and Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, his emperor's "rice bowl" was basically snatched from his own nephew, but Zhu Di was indeed one of the few emperors with great talents and strategies in the 276 years of the Ming Dynasty; and so on, there are of course many more cases like this.

Of course, a character like Teiji Moriya can never be compared with those great men with great talents and strategies.

However, although he cannot compare with those historical celebrities, in Japan, the title of Teiji Moriya, professor of the Department of Architecture at Touto University and a famous architectural designer in Japan, is still quite useful.

Therefore, it is not impossible that someone would save him from the police because they value his talent or have some connection with him.

"Besides, aren't you curious about how an ordinary person like Moriya Teiji could steal so much gunpowder from the heavily guarded Japanese gunpowder depot and turn it into a powerful plastic bomb?"

After hearing this, Inspector Megure couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Brother Bai Ye, what do you mean..."

Although the police are useless, the security measures and monitoring system of something as important as the Oriental gunpowder depot must be very strict.

So the question is, as an architect, how did Teiji Moriya bypass these security measures, steal gunpowder and make bombs?

This is indeed a question worth further exploration.

Touching his chin, Bai Ye boldly made a guess: "First, we can assume that Moriya Teiji did not act alone, but with an accomplice. For example, he may have received help from an insider in the Oriental powder depot. This person may be familiar with the security measures of the powder depot, and may even be involved in the maintenance or design of the security system. It was with his help that Moriya Teiji was able to steal gunpowder from the heavily guarded Oriental powder depot so easily."

"Secondly, as an architectural designer, Teiji Moriya has participated in the design of many well-known buildings. His professional skills are likely to be used to cover up his true actions. For example, he may have used his professional knowledge to design an unknown passage or method near the Oriental Gunpowder Depot to bypass surveillance and guards."

At this point, Bai Ye paused, his tone somewhat inexplicable, "Besides that, we cannot rule out the possibility that Moriya Teiji may have connections with some illegal organizations. These organizations may have provided him with the necessary resources and information to help him complete this action."

Officer Megure frowned upon hearing this: "Brother Bai Ye, are you saying that there might be a bigger conspiracy behind Moriya Teiji?"

After Bai Ye said this, he also felt that there was something wrong with the fact that Moritani Teiji stole so much gunpowder from the Japanese gunpowder depot.

It's hard to say, it's really like Bai Ye said, there is an insider in the Toyo Powder Depot who is in collusion with Moriya Teiji, or Moriya Teiji is in collusion with some evil organization. With the help of the other party, he successfully bypassed the surveillance and security of the Toyo Powder Depot and stole a large amount of gunpowder from it.

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain how one person could steal so much gunpowder from the Japanese gunpowder depot, and make it into plastic bombs, and install them in Green Park, Beihua Station, and the Toudou Loop Line!
Bai Ye nodded gently, his face serious: "Yes, I think that the theft of the Oriental gunpowder depot by Moriya Teiji is probably not just a simple crime. It may also involve a deeper criminal network. Therefore, we need to further investigate Moriya Teiji's background, including his social circle, financial dealings, and his recent behavior patterns. Maybe his murderer is among these people."

Officer Shiratori sneered and said, "Mr. Bai Ye, this is all just speculation. Just based on these ambiguous so-called 'clues', you can conclude that those three people are related to the murder of Moriya Teiji, and that Moriya Teiji's theft of the Japanese gunpowder depot was a gang crime? Maybe everything is just a coincidence!"

Bai Ye smiled slightly, not angry, but responded calmly: "Officer Shiratori, I just put forward a possibility. As for the truth of the matter, it needs further verification. But in the process of solving the case, not letting go of any seemingly small anomalies can often find the truth, right? Moreover, when coincidences occur frequently, is it really still a coincidence?"

There is no coincidence, no meeting, and there are always coincidences between people and things. Coincidences seem to be unrelated at first glance, but they are terrifying when you think about them carefully. There must be a cause and effect behind the coincidence. There must be an invisible thread that connects the two things that are completely unrelated, and this is cause and effect. Any coincidence is inevitable in chance. If we use this philosophical theory to explain it, when the coincidence can only produce a unique result, it is inevitable. In addition, from the perspective of probability, the probability is very small.

In particular, if it happens once or twice, it is still reasonable, but if there are too many so-called coincidences, then it is not tenable to use the word coincidence again. There is no reason and it is not logical!

Miwako Sato pursed her lips and joined the discussion: "I think Bai Ye is right. It is possible that they took the risk of killing Moriya Teiji because of uneven distribution of the spoils or because they thought that if Moriya Teiji fell into the hands of the police, his existence would be exposed. Therefore, we need to investigate those organizations that may be connected to Moriya Teiji."

At this point, Sato Miwako paused, her expression somewhat serious and cautious, "If they really exist, then the bomb explosions that occurred before are likely just the tip of the iceberg."

If there really is an evil organization that is in collusion with Moriya Teiji, then the other party would have gone to great lengths to help Moriya Teiji steal so much gunpowder from the Oriental gunpowder depot. It is impossible that they did it on a whim. It is possible that there is some conspiracy hidden in it that is detrimental to their Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and even the entire country.

After hearing Bai Ye and Sato Miwako's analysis, Officer Shiratori's face became extremely gloomy, because even though he didn't want to believe it in his heart, he had to admit that Bai Ye and Sato Miwako's speculations made sense, and might even be the truth of the matter.

After taking a cold look at the extremely gloomy Officer Shiratori, Officer Megure was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. He directly cast his gaze to Bai Ye beside him, his eyes full of inquiry, "So, Brother Bai Ye, where should we start investigating next?"

It's not that without his brother Bai Ye, he, Megure Jusan, the inspector of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, would be unable to do anything. The main reason is that there are too few talents available in the entire third investigation department. He finally caught Bai Ye, a "tool man" with extraordinary wisdom. No matter what, he must seize this rare opportunity.

Moreover, he also believed that in terms of criminal investigation, the suggestions put forward by Bai Ye, a smart man, would definitely be more useful than those put forward by these stupid people.

Bai Ye pondered for a while, then said, "First, we need to conduct an in-depth investigation of Teiji Moriya's personal background, including his family, friends, colleagues, and anyone he has recently come into contact with. Secondly, we need to investigate those evil organizations that may be connected to him, especially those who have the motive and ability to help him. In addition, we may need to investigate the security personnel of the Oriental Powder Depot to see if there is a possibility of internal leaks in the previous theft of gunpowder from the Oriental Powder Depot. After all, we cannot rule out the possibility that the person who killed Teiji Moriya did so because of an uneven distribution of the spoils or to silence him."

Officer Megure nodded in agreement. "Okay, I understand, Brother Bai Ye. I will arrange for someone to investigate Moriya Teiji's background. At the same time, I will also contact the person in charge of security at the gunpowder depot to see if there is any internal problem in the theft of the gunpowder."

Although the police had investigated Moritani Teiji's interpersonal relationships after the plan was issued, they had not thought of the possibility of a gang crime at that time, so some important clues might have been missed. At present, they need to investigate again.

However, before sending someone to investigate, he still needed to ask Bai Ye again.

That is to see what else needs to be done in addition to these preparations.

"By the way, besides these, is there anything else we need to do?"

Bai Ye glanced at Inspector Megure and Sato Miwako, then touched his chin and said, "In addition, we need to confirm the identities of the three people who appeared in the video to see if they have a criminal record or other suspicious backgrounds. Secondly, we need to investigate their relationship with Moriya Teiji, and whether they may have access to information about the escort of Moriya Teiji, and who passed the message to them. Finally, we may need to conduct a more detailed investigation of the scene at the time to see if there are any clues that have been overlooked!"

Officer Megure nodded slightly. "Okay, I will immediately arrange for someone to investigate the identities and backgrounds of these three people. At the same time, we will also review the evidence at the scene to see if there are any omissions."

At this point, he hesitated for a moment, then turned his gaze to Officer Shiratori standing beside him: "Officer Shiratori, you are responsible for contacting the traffic department to see if you can find more surveillance videos, especially those that are not blocked by the crowd. If you can find them, maybe our police may have new discoveries."

Generally speaking, he would assign tasks like this to his subordinates like Officer Takagi.

However, this time, he planned to let Officer Shiratori, the deputy inspector, do the job.

The reason is simple.

This was because a certain Coral Head police officer and his brother Bai Ye did not get along, and had repeatedly made things difficult for and slandered each other.

Although, with him and Sato Miwako mediating, the two did not completely fall out.

But no matter how good-tempered a person is, he can’t stand being naughty all the time!
He was really worried that if he allowed a certain Coral Head Police Officer to continue to get along with his brother Bai Ye, the other party would repeat the same old tricks and target him again.

If something like this really happened, he really didn't know how to face his brother Bai Ye.

Although Officer Shiratori was somewhat reluctant to leave at this time, since his superior Officer Megure had said so, he had no choice but to accept the task: "Understood, I will do it as soon as possible."
