Chapter 17
The information that Toru Amuro brought was more abundant than expected.
The information about the establishment time of the Charity Ambassador Organization, including the details of its founder, was quite detailed. Tsujimoto even suspected that the other party had used his connections in the black organization to inquire about this information.
It’s just strange that this [Charity Ambassador] organization seems to have been established earlier than I thought.
From the founder to the establishment process, everything is very detailed. Daigo Ueda's resume is also very clean. It can be seen that the person who whitewashed the company is quite good at washing coal briquettes.
Shigetsu Tsujimoto closed the documents and fell into deep thought.
There are too few things that can be found openly, so we have to continue the investigation through other means.
"If the information is not enough, I can..."
"It's okay. Amuro-kun has helped me a lot. I already know what to do." Tsujimoto Shigetsu shook the other's hand.
"I think that's enough. I don't need to bother you any more."
"Officer Tsujimoto!"
Conan poked his head out from the corner of the room, looking bitter.
"So when can we take this dog away? If we keep staying here like this, Dr. Agasa's house will be torn down!"
"I remember this is a golden retriever, not a husky..."
Shigeto Tsujimoto opened the door curiously and soon saw a big golden retriever jumping up and down and suddenly jumped out. He subconsciously turned sideways and saw that the golden retriever knocked down Morofuku Kagemitsu who was beside him.
"Hey! So this person is Amber's owner?" Yoshida Ayumi asked curiously.
"That should be the case. It seems to be so anxious these days. It's only behaved when it's with classmate Huihara." Mitsuhiko was also helpless.
"Thank you for your time." Tsujimoto Shigetsu and Dr. Agasa thanked them.
"I will handle the rest by myself, so don't let the children get involved. And -"
Shigeto Tsujimoto looked at Morofuku Kagemitsu who was caught by the golden-haired creature behind him and continued,
"If possible, could you help me take care of this child for a while? I have other cases to handle later, so it may not be convenient for me to take care of him."
"Of course!" Dr. Agasa rubbed his hands, "I'm glad I can help you!"
"good."
Tsujimoto Shigetsu half-knelt down and gently rubbed Morobushi Keimitsu's soft hair, speaking in a gentle tone,
"Well, wait for me here and don't run around, okay?"
"good."
Morofu Jingguang nodded in a pretentious manner.
There's no way he would listen.
It’s not that he’s unwilling to obey...it’s mainly because the man behind him won’t let him sit here and wait for his death.
Shigetsu Tsujimoto had other plans. As soon as he was released, he called Inspector Furutani and asked for a few days' leave.
"Because it's an important matter, I want to take a leave temporarily." Shigetto Tsujimoto looked at his watch.
"That's it. If possible, can you tell Matsuda and the others that I'm on a mission? No... I'm not going to do anything dangerous. I know what I'm doing."
"That's it. Thank you, Inspector Furuya."
The call was disconnected.
The information provided by Amuro mentioned how to join this organization. The qualifications required to join this organization are still very high. Unless you are an internal employee, it will be difficult to infiltrate.
He could ask Yuma to help him disguise himself, but if Yuma knew that he wanted to sneak in directly, there was a 99% chance that he would not agree, and might even set a trap for him.
Well... although he didn't think the other party wouldn't know if he didn't tell them.
"Officer Tsujimoto?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in his ear. Shigeto Tsujimoto raised his head and met a pair of familiar eyes.
"Who are you??"
Looking at the other person's handsome face, Shigeto Tsujimoto's brain paused for a moment and began to think about where he had seen him before.
"It's me, Hanyu Ibuki."
The young lawyer coughed awkwardly and adjusted his tie.
"I was just planning to look for you, but I bumped into you... What are you planning to do?"
"Did you hear what I said on the phone just now?" Shigetto Tsujimoto looked at him in surprise.
"I heard it, but I won't tell anyone about it. Officer Tsujimoto, please rest assured!" Hanyu Ibuki said seriously.
"That's good. What do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's like this. I heard that Mr. Amuro seemed to be helping you find relevant information about the charity ambassador organization. I thought that a lawsuit I recently took over seemed to be related to this matter, so I wondered if I could help a little..."
Hanyu Ibuki took out a thick stack of documents from the briefcase at his waist and handed it to the other party.
"It seems like she is a girl who is looking for her brother. According to that lady, her brother died inexplicably after joining a charity, but it was treated as an accident. The lady is planning to sue the Charity Ambassadors Organization. If you are interested, would you like to go with her?"
"Okay." Tsujimoto nodded.
"Then let's go now."
"That's great! It looks like I can help Officer Tsujimoto a little bit!"
Hanyu Ibuki smiled happily. He quickly opened the car door and motioned the other party to get in.
"Are you happy to be able to help me?" Shigetto Tsujimoto glanced at him.
"Yes, after all, I am a fan of Officer Tsujimoto."
“…”
Shigeto Tsujimoto did not make any comment on this, but just leaned back quietly in his seat, waiting for the destination to arrive.
The Hanyu Office where Hanyu Ibuki works is quite famous in Tokyo. It has a high winning streak and many people hire people from their office to fight lawsuits. They have even reached a settlement with people in official circles and even made the news.
Of course, Tsujimoto only found out about this after searching for information belatedly. After all, he seldom reads the news. However, he became suspicious after learning that the other party was also a well-known lawyer.
I can't tell that his enthusiasm is fake, but why would such a famous lawyer come to me?
Even though the two lived in the same orphanage when they were children, they had never met each other. They were completely out of touch with each other.
Or does he really worship himself?
Shigeto Tsujimoto put his finger on his chin, feeling that there was something fishy about this matter.
"We're here, Officer Tsujimoto." Hanyu Ibuki backed the car skillfully.
"Well, just call me by my name, no need to use any honorifics." Shigetto Tsujimoto unbuckled his seat belt.
"Really? Hahahaha... I feel so embarrassed."
"Then just follow your habit." Tsujimoto Shigetsu got out of the car, his tone helpless.
"I'm actually not used to people complimenting me. It makes me feel a little bit..."
disturbed.
But does this uneasiness really come from the compliment? Or does it come from the person himself?
Shigetsu Tsujimoto had some ideas in his mind, but after thinking about it, he quickly suppressed the idea.
It's better to take it one step at a time.
Hanyu Ibuki's office has three floors, and there are many people busy on each floor. People of all kinds gather in the office to talk about cases, and it can be seen that Hanyu Ibuki has a lot of staff members.
"Please come in. This is my office on the third floor."
Hanyu Ibuki opened the door. The room was nicely decorated with lots of green plants. Sunlight shone through the glass windows onto the patterned carpet, giving the room an inexplicable feeling of peace and tranquility.
The client with long black hair was wearing a white dress. She looked short, had a pale complexion, a languid expression, and appeared to be in a very bad mental state.
...It just makes Shigeto Tsujimoto feel a little familiar.
"Ms. Chizuru Hashima, this is Officer Tsujimoto whom I mentioned to you before. He also happens to be investigating matters related to the Charity Ambassador Organization. I think you two could exchange some information, which will be beneficial to the development of both of us." Hanyu Ibuki introduced.
"Officer Tsujimoto... Are you that Officer Tsujimoto?!"
Chizuru Hashima's eyes suddenly lit up.
"I've heard about you!! As expected, you are also investigating the Charity Ambassador Organization! That's great... I said the police in Nagano Prefecture are useless! We still have to look to Tokyo to get things done!"
"Have you called the police before?" Shigetto Tsujimoto sat on the sofa and continued to ask.
"I called the police! It was useless!" Chizuru Hashima's tone suddenly became excited.
"The police officers in Nagano couldn't find anything! After all this time, I have to do it myself!"
“Are you from Nagano Prefecture?”
"Yes!" Chizuru Hashima nodded vigorously.
"My brother's death was not an accident at all! He was murdered! Absolutely!"
"Why are you so sure?" Shigetto Tsujimoto asked curiously.
"Before that, my brother called me and said that this institution was a bit strange. There were no children at all... There were even few people in the building, and there was no office..." Chizuru Hashima looked a little panicked.
"After that, he suddenly stopped contacting me. I thought he was busy and didn't bother him. As a result... I got the news of his death."
"I, I don't have any evidence from anyone else... But I really think this matter is not that simple, and I don't know what to do."
“…”
This does sound wrong.
"I understand. I will find a way to resolve this matter." Shigeto Tsujimoto turned off the recorder and his expression became serious.
"Do you mean you will help me collect relevant evidence?" Chizuru Hashima was a little surprised.
"Yes, but it may be a little troublesome."
His face didn't look suitable for infiltration, but he didn't know much about disguise...
"If Officer Tsujimoto needs my help, I can help you too!"
Chizuru Hashima suddenly smiled, and she elegantly put her long hair behind her ears. That smile made Shigeto Tsujimoto feel more familiar.
"Like... changing your identity or something?"
Disguise?
In an instant, the vast universe appeared in Shigetsu Tsujimoto's mind. He was dazed for three minutes until the other party curiously stretched out his hand and waved in front of him, then he reacted.
Oh, this familiar feeling...
It must be him.
"Thank you. Thank you for your help."
Shigetsu Tsujimoto had a blank expression on his face. At the same time, he activated the message editing system on his hearing aid with one hand and quickly sent a message to a certain unscrupulous gay friend.
[Shizuto Tsujimoto: Tell me, are you a fan of cross-dressing, Yuuma? ]
[Yuuma Tsujimoto: I don’t understand what you are saying~]
[Shigetto Tsujimoto: Dear Ms. Chizuru Hashima, could you please expose yourself a little more thoroughly? ]
[Yuuma Tsujimoto: Well, hey, I didn’t expect to be recognized…]
[Shizuto Tsujimoto: Why did you get involved in this? So the Charity Ambassador Organization is indeed related to the Black Organization, right?]
【Yuuma Tsujimoto: Guess? 】
[Shigetsu Tsujimoto: The Mystery Teller Gets Out of Beika Town.JPG]
[Yuuma Tsujimoto: It's as if you can't go back if I say it's okay.]
[Shizuto Tsujimoto: So you plan to dive in as well? ]
[Yuuma Tsujimoto: My route is different from yours. Although I thought about preventing you from leaving the house, it seemed difficult, so I gave up~]
[Shizuto Tsujimoto: Don’t say such horrible things in such a serious manner…]
[Yuuma Tsujimoto: I can help you disguise yourself and get in, but I warn you in advance that there are certain risks and you may even die.]
【Shizuto Tsujimoto: Yes.】
[Yuuma Tsujimoto: Forget it. You won’t listen to me anyway. I can’t do anything if you insist on doing this~]
[Shigetsu Tsujimoto: Won't your disguise be exposed? ]
[Yuuma Tsujimoto: If it were me, then no. If it were you... I'm not sure how long I could hold on.]
[Yuuma Tsujimoto: Generally speaking, if your emotions don't change much, you won't be exposed. But since you are so natural, there will definitely be no problem.]
[Shigetsu Tsujimoto: That’s settled, thank you Yuma. [Tuzki’s affection.JPG]]
【Yuuma Tsujimoto: Yes, of course, just this once.】
…
Yuma Tsujimoto, an avid cross-dresser.
Shigeto Tsujimoto silently tagged the other person, but still felt that this world was unreal.
But he was surprised that Yu Tsujimoto was willing to help him.
Is it because you are sure to win? Or do you have other plans?
Shigetto Tsujimoto fell into deep thought.
·
So the next step is to go stealthily.
Hanyu Ibuki also said that he could help, but Tsujimoto Shigeto refused.
The person in front of him made him feel too uneasy, and he didn't want to trouble others too much.
Yuma Tsujimoto provided excellent after-sales service and even designed an identity for him. Yuichi Mitsu, a top student who had just graduated, wanted to become a member of the charity ambassador organization because he longed for it.
Even the internal connections have been established in advance, so there is no need for an interview at all.
Shigetto Tsujimoto, who used his connections to gain entry to the company, looked at the long queue outside with mixed feelings.
In this inward-looking world, relationships are really important.
…Although this importance doesn’t seem to be a good thing.
After the new disguise, Shigeto Tsujimoto has a simple short black hair, but his face is still above average. Yuma Tsujimoto seems to be very keen on face-pinching, so Shigeto Tsujimoto followed his lead.
The supervisor was very enthusiastic about Shigeto Tsujimoto. He introduced the general internal environment of the company in a relaxed tone and took Shigeto Tsujimoto to visit various offices.
Contrary to the information provided by Yuma Tsujimoto, there seemed to be many offices here, and even everyone had a happy smile on their face.
“It’s a newcomer!”
"The new guy is very handsome!"
"Please take care of me in the future!!"
Logically, such a cheerful workplace atmosphere should make people feel happy.
But Shigeto Tsujimoto always felt a little uncomfortable.
Their smiles were so strange that it seemed as if the corners of their mouths were tilted upwards.
Shigeto Tsujimoto immediately opened the paradox simulation and began to investigate the people in front of him.
[Paradox Simulation] Although only the preliminary state can be analyzed, at least the abnormal state can be seen.
A yellow warning sign popped up above the heads of every person who was stuck. Clicking on the warning sign showed that they were all in an [abnormal state].
Abnormal state? In other words, they didn't show this expression voluntarily? Or were they forced into a certain state by someone?
As for the people around me...
Shigeto Tsujimoto looked at the smiling supervisor and clearly saw the marked words extending from the other person's head.
[Identity: Black side, Belmode]
Tsujimoto Shigetsu: “…”
He is actually a member of the Black Organization? ?
Ah, but luckily it wasn’t Gin. After all, he had offended him not long ago, and he didn’t want to be pushed on the head by Bretta.
"Mr. Mitsu? What are you looking at?"
The voice in my ear suddenly stopped. Just as Shigeto Tsujimoto finished the paradox simulation, the supervisor next to him asked curiously.
"No, the infrastructure here is pretty good." Tsujimoto shook his head.
"What should I do next?"
"Let me take you to visit the rest area first. Our rest area here is quite special. It's all in the underground area. Do you want to visit it first?" The smile on the supervisor's face deepened.
"OK."
Shigeto Tsujimoto agreed.
He really wanted to see what the other party was going to do next.
