Coroner Coroner

After returning to Tokyo.

Lin Xinyi received a bad news:

Minister Odagiri asked him to work overtime at the Metropolitan Police Department.

Moreover, his tone on the phone was very serious, as if something serious had happened.

Lin Xin had to ask Belmod to send Xiao Ai home, hurried to the Metropolitan Police Department building, and reported to Minister Odagiri's office.

"Officer Lin, you're here."

As soon as the door was pushed open, Minister Odagiri's solemn face came into view.

He sat alone in front of the wide desk and meditated, and he was slightly relieved when he saw Lin Xinyi pushed the door open:

"You came back just fine."

"I have a case in hand, and I hope it can be handed over to you."

"What case?"

Lin Xinyi didn't say any polite words, but just asked questions straight to the point.

Moreover, he was not used to the custom of standing and discussing work with the leader, so he found a chair and sat down naturally as soon as he entered the door, which seemed very natural.

Minister Odagiri was also indifferent to his overstepping.

A capable person doing this is not called ignorance of the world, it is called outstanding.

This kind of spirit of "I'm an undercover agent anyway, I'm more happy to fire me".Not only did he not offend the leaders, but on the contrary, this Minister Odagiri, who is determined to reform and enterprising, admired Lin Xinyi even more:

"Lin, have you read the newspapers for the past two days?"

"No, I'm on vacation in Izu."

Lin Xinyi answered generously,

He was on vacation every day this week, and he visited Osaka, Snow Mountain, and Izu all over the place, and he was very arrogant in fishing.

But he was able to solve major cases as soon as he went out. He solved 4 cases in a week and arrested 5 murderers, 3 of which were serial murderers.

Even the Osaka Police Superintendent personally sent a commendation, boasting that he is the current Ryoma Sakamoto in the police force, and faintly revealing the idea of ​​wanting to poach him to work in Osaka.

In this way, no one would be ashamed to say that Lin Xinyi was playing fish.

If he was fishing, wouldn't those colleagues who went to and from get off work on time every day but only solved few cases, all be vegetarians?

Sure enough, Minister Odagiri didn't care at all when he heard that Lin Xinyi had gone out for vacation again.

He just took out a newspaper with a heavy expression and went straight to the topic:

"Look, this matter has caused a wave of public opinion:"

"In the past two days, two police officers of the Metropolitan Police Department have been killed."

"The Narazawaji Police Department of the First Search Division was shot dead in the street in front of the telephone booth."

"Ichiro Shibayo, the inspection chief of Seongnam Police Station, was shot dead in the underground garage of his apartment."

"Through bullet trace analysis, we have confirmed that the murderer who shot and killed the two police officers is the same person."

"This…"

Lin Xinyi's expression couldn't help becoming serious:

The serial killings were all serving police officers of the Metropolitan Police Department.

No wonder Minister Odagiri was so eager to ask him to come back to take charge of the investigation... This is a major case that can shock the Metropolitan Police Department and arouse strong social repercussions.

However, this kind of shooting in the street...

Calling him doesn't seem to work, does it?

Because of the good law and order in his previous life, he lacked practical experience in handling shooting cases.

And this kind of "gin-style" killing method of shooting in the street, killing and running, simple and rude, without tricks, is also the most troublesome forensic doctor.

In such a case with simple techniques, clear facts, and clear cause of death, it is often not the forensic doctor who plays the key role, but...

"Did the camera catch anything?"

Lin Xinyi immediately asked.

"No." Minister Odagiri blocked his fantasy with one sentence: "There were no cameras installed around the scene of the two cases."

"The last time you proposed to install cameras in a large area of ​​Tokyo, it was also rejected in the parliament."

"According to those politicians, this is to protect the privacy of residents."

Lin Xinyi: "..."

Residents have privacy...

It's a pity that the murderer followed suit.

Moreover, there are no cameras installed in the city, so if he is wronged by some strange woman and turned into a moron, wouldn't he not even have a chance to prove his innocence?

Lin Xinyi couldn't understand these persecuted delusional patients at all.

In their mouths, it seems that there are a little more cameras on the street, and "Big Brother" is watching you.

"never mind…"

He is powerless to change the status quo and can only accept the facts helplessly:

"What about the investigation of the social relations of the two police officers who died?"

"Is there any connection between them?"

"Is this a random act of terror purely against the Metropolitan Police Department, or is it revenge against these two officers in particular?"

Lin Xinyi's thinking is very clear.

Without surveillance cameras, social relations with the deceased are of secondary importance.

First find a way to lock potential criminal suspects, and then conduct targeted investigations around a few suspects.

"That's where the problem lies."

Minister Odagiri sighed lightly.

He took out a stack of thick documents and handed them to Lin Xinyi:

"The two police officers who died, Nara Sawaji and Shibayo Ichiro, as well as the current police officer Miwako Sato from the first search section, were once subordinates of the late Tomounari Nobukatsu."

"Last year, under the leadership of Youcheng Police Department, they jointly investigated a case."

"That case was closed as a suicide and then dropped."

"And recently, under my arrangement, the three police officers Sato, Nara, and Zhiyang who handled the case at that time secretly re-investigated the suicide case last year."

"But this secret investigation has just restarted not long ago..."

Minister Odagiri paused slightly, pointed to the newspaper and said:

"Nara and Zhiyang were killed."

"This..." Realizing the intricate background of this case, Lin Xinyi's brows furrowed deeper and deeper:

The two officers who were killed had worked together on a suicide investigation last year.

And that suicide case was obviously strange.

That's why Minister Odagiri restarted the investigation a year later.

But when Nara and Zhiyang were ordered to restart the investigation, they were killed.

So, the murderer who killed the two police officers...

"It is very likely that he is the suspect in the 'suicide case' last year?"

"He was afraid that the truth that he killed himself and pretended to commit suicide a year ago would be revealed, so he acted preemptively and killed police officers Nara and Zhiyang who were familiar with the case back then?"

"It's very likely."

Minister Odagiri nodded silently.

"Then who was the suspect in the 'suicide case' last year?"

Lin Xinyi couldn't wait to ask.

Minister Odagiri was silent for a while.

After a long silence, like an old tape recorder, he said with some tape:

"There was only one suspect back then..."

"It's a rock singer, Toshiya Odagiri."

"Toshi Odagiri?"

"The name sounds familiar..."

"That's my son." The Minister of Criminal Affairs, Toshiro Odagiri, replied.

Lin Xinyi: "..."

Good guy.

The suspect back then was Minister Odagiri's son?

No wonder they said "closed the case in a hurry"...

The son of the immediate boss has been found out, so can the case not be closed?

Many dark thoughts suddenly popped up in Lin Xinyi's heart.

And Minister Odagiri seemed to be able to see something from his subtle expression.

The atmosphere became a little awkward.

But Lin Xinyi quickly reacted:

"No, it can't be that Minister Odagiri is deliberately covering up."

If Minister Odagiri had the heart to protect his son, he would not have restarted the investigation a year later and reopened the "suicide case" that had been sealed.

What's more, he now took the initiative to transfer Lin Xinyi back to lead the investigation.
