Chapter 517
Ken Hagiwara and his companion were well-connected and quickly obtained "that woman's" contact information through various inquiries.
"He seems to be quite famous on the 15th floor where the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department is located," Kenji Hagiwara said. "It seems he was transferred to the anti-organized crime hotline about two years ago, and I heard he always dresses like he's in mourning clothes..."
Hanchuan Shenliu nodded: "His relatives and friends died because of things related to the Yakuza, so he hates the Yakuza. It seems to be developing in this way."
“That’s what I guessed too.” Kenji Hagiwara sighed. “I can understand, but it’s really too extreme. It’s actually affecting the image and credibility of the police. I think officers should receive regular psychological counseling. Allowing officers with mental health issues to work is irresponsible to both officers and the public.”
Since the job is to help yakuza members break free from their criminal past, then do your job properly. Creating obstacles for them is already dereliction of duty!
Kenji Hagiwara felt he needed to have a serious talk with someone, so he made a phone call: "Hello, this is Kenji Hagiwara from the First Investigation Division..."
The other end: "I understand, I'll be there right away."
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Kenji Hagiwara held his phone, paused for a moment, and gave a wry smile: "They're certainly efficient..."
Han Chuan Shenliu commented: "He sounds like a very obsessive guy. I bet he was eavesdropping through a hidden camera the whole time."
Kenji Hagiwara sighed, "Let's eat first and wait while we eat..."
Although the main purpose of coming here is to drink, after this incident, no one is in the mood for drinking anymore. They just order some rice bowls and wait for the parties involved to arrive so that they can deal with the matter.
Kenji Hagiwara didn't stop during the meal, asking around about the other person, especially wanting to know who their backer was.
Yongguang Maiqiu originally worked in the juvenile department, responsible for mediating juvenile delinquency. She was transferred three years ago and joined the "de-gang call" two years ago.
"Where did she go during that year?" Kenji Hagiwara asked, puzzled. "It's said that her father died three years ago, which caused her personality to change drastically... But it seems to be a normal illness, and it has nothing to do with yakuza. Why does she hate yakuza so much?"
Matsuda Jinpei suggested, "Should we ask the personnel department?"
Kenji Hagiwara rubbed his hair: "...I'm not familiar with the people over there."
Han Chuan Shenliu continued eating with chopsticks in one hand, while quickly flipping through his phone with the other and then making a call.
"Kankawa-kun? What is it?" Inspector Megure's voice reached the ears of the people nearby.
Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda watched blankly as Shinryu Kazukawa put down his chopsticks, and then said politely but impolitely.
"Inspector, do you have the contact information for the head of the Personnel Division of the Metropolitan Police Department? Please send it to me; it will be helpful. Thank you."
Inspector Megure: "...Kanakawa-kun, can you give me a heads-up about what you're planning to do this time? Otherwise, I'm afraid the personnel department will come after me."
"I just want to know what position a police officer from a squad unit held two years ago."
"Oh." Inspector Megure visibly relaxed. "You've run into something related to the yakuza again? I'll send it to you in a bit."
Hearing that it was related to an officer from the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department, Inspector Megure subconsciously felt that it was related to the yakuza and had approached Shinryu Hanakawa... Fine, it's just asking about an officer's resume, so of course he didn't hesitate and directly sent Shinryu Hanakawa the contact information of the head of the personnel department.
Of course, Inspector Megure still added a note in the email: if asked, don't say you gave it to them yourself...
Hanchuan Shenliu politely sent an email to express his gratitude before making the phone call.
The other end answered after a moment: "Hello?"
"Hello, I am Hanchuan Shenliu."
opposite:"……?!?!"
As the head of the personnel department, he was in charge of all personnel transfers, so it was impossible for him not to know about the famous consultant of the Metropolitan Police Department, Shinryu Kanakawa.
No matter how polite the other party's words were, the head of the personnel department couldn't help but tremble.
This guy was reported even when he was still in police academy, and he was reported for every year he served. Even after he resigned, he was still reported every day. He's a big shot who no one dares to mess with will have a good ending. Why would he suddenly be looking for him?!
Don't say that he's the head of the personnel department and has a certain status. Han Chuan Shenliu is an unofficial staff member, and he has no way to control him!
The head of the personnel department, who had been sitting somewhat casually, sat up straight instantly: "Oh, it's Han Chuan-kun. Is there something you need from me all of a sudden?"
“Emiya Mutsumi,” Hanakawa Shinryu asked, “what is the reason for her hatred of the Yakuza?”
Personnel Department Head: "…………"
Oh my god! It's all because of Yongguang Wheat Mill!
He did say that he would let Yongguang Maiqiu do whatever she wanted and he would buy at the bottom, but no one told her to provoke Hanchuan Shenliu!
The head of the personnel department racked his brains, trying to figure out what kind of conflict Yongguang Maiqiu had with Hanchuan Shenliu.
"Your breathing has changed."
Han Chuan Shenliu said thoughtfully, "So, the rumored backer of hers is you?"
The head of the personnel department was practically screaming.
How did you come to that conclusion? Couldn't it be that he was just too nervous?!
But he really couldn't refute it, because it is said that so far, no one has been able to successfully lie to Hanchuan Shenliu.
Just as the head of the personnel department was silent, Hanchuan Shenliu casually continued.
"So, you're covering up all her violations? The head of the personnel department has more power than I thought. I only crossed the line and I still have to write a self-criticism."
Personnel Department Head: "…………"
Was it a threat? He did use some less-than-honorable methods, but they were all tacit favors that everyone knew about, and as long as they weren't brought up openly, it was all acceptable...
But thinking about it carefully, let alone relying on tacit understanding behind the scenes, it seems that Han Chuan Shenliu is someone who never looks into the air and just flips the table, otherwise he wouldn't be constantly being complained about and reported.
"It's a misunderstanding," the head of the personnel department quickly came up with his universal answer.
Whatever the misunderstanding is, it's still a misunderstanding. Find a way to save face first, and then quickly change the subject.
"Regarding the question you just asked—uh, I need to, I need to look it up."
Oh no, if we reveal why Yongguang Maiqiu hates the Yakuza, it will implicate his illegal operations.
The head of the personnel department was struggling with the decision.
Han Chuan Shenliu said quietly, "Section Chief, judging from the range of topics you've been avoiding, you've violated regulations quite a few times..."
The head of the personnel department was drenched in sweat.
"This, that..."
He stammered for a long time, still not figuring out how to fool the renowned Han Chuan Shenliu, when he heard Han Chuan Shenliu say.
Are you free today? I'd like to pay you a visit.
"No!"
The head of the personnel department blurted it out.
He had only brushed past Kagawa Shinryu at the Metropolitan Police Department once before, and it felt like his heart was about to give way when he thought about the rumors that Kagawa Shinryu would stop at nothing to achieve his goals...
If possible, he didn't want to try Hanchuan Shenliu's methods.
“Yongguang Maiqiu’s biological father is the leader of the Kanto Kibune Group,” the head of the personnel department said. “Her mother lied to us when we were doing the background check, deceiving us into thinking that she was Yongguang Maiqiu, who was born out of wedlock with her husband. If she had told the truth earlier, she would never have been able to become a police officer.”
"But she's still a police officer?"
The head of the personnel department explained, "Because we only found out the truth when we reopened the background check three years ago, it was a mistake on the part of the personnel department. So we wanted her to resign voluntarily, but she refused. She insisted on becoming a police officer and deeply hated her biological father who prevented her from becoming a police officer... Considering this strong desire, I think we can keep her here for a while to observe her, after all, she does have the ability."
Hanchuan Shenliu: "…………"
Personnel Department Head: "Han Chuan-kun?"
"So your personnel department really does conduct background checks," said Hanchuan Shenliu slowly.
The head of the personnel department was puzzled: "Well, of course..."
"But why wasn't this investigated when they hired me? Why did they suddenly restart the background check three years ago?"
Personnel Department Head: "...Because her father passed away at the time, a new round of background checks was needed to issue the survivor's pension..."
Han Chuan Shenliu nodded: "If we have to spend extra money, then we'll get serious, is that right?"
"Han Chuan-kun, there's no need to put it so harshly. This is just a normal procedure. After all, the compensation is paid by the people's taxes, so it's normal to be meticulous..." The head of the personnel department began to secretly wipe his sweat.
"What about my background check?" Han Chuan Shenliu asked, seemingly curious. "Did you find any problems?"
"Well... I wasn't in charge at the time, so I don't know anything about that... When I came here, you had already resigned."
"All right."
Han Chuan Shenliu said with a hint of regret, "Then forget it... By the way, did you do a DNA test or did Ms. Yongguang's mother suddenly tell the truth?"
"No, it's just that a photo of Yongguang Maiqiu's mother and the leader of the Guifen Group was found when she was a month old. Subsequent investigations revealed that they had been dating during that time. Yongguang Maiqiu went back and asked her mother about it, and her mother tacitly admitted it."
"I see." Han Chuan Shenliu nodded thoughtfully. "That's enough. Thank you for your cooperation. Goodbye."
The call ended.
Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda stared blankly at Shinryu Kagawa.
"Is this how you gather intelligence?" Matsuda Jinpei couldn't contain his吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical comments). "It's too simple and crude! I thought it would be something more sophisticated!"
"This is a society based on personal connections; it's more convenient to ask the relevant people directly than to use high technology," Han Chuan Shenliu said confidently.
Matsuda Jinpei asked, "What if that section chief doesn't answer? Are you really going to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to find him?"
“Anyway, you guys are driving,” said Hanchuan Shenliu. “But an easier way is to just use some rhetoric.”
"So none of that counts..." Kenji Hagiwara couldn't help but retort.
Han Chuan Shenliu pondered: "For me, only what requires thinking counts as rhetoric."
Before Kenji Hagiwara could say anything more, someone suddenly entered through the restaurant's main entrance.
The other person had disheveled hair, wore a black dress that looked like mourning clothes, and had a gloomy face. After scanning the restaurant, their cold gaze landed on Han Chuan Shenliu.
“I’ve heard of you before, Mr. Kanakawa Shinryu.”
This is a rare person who is very tough on Han Chuan Shenliu: "I hope those rumors are false, because I will not forgive any of the people associated with the Yakuza."
Han Chuan Shenliu gave the police officer, whose soul had been consumed by revenge, a subtle look in his eyes, and slowly spoke.
"I have met the leader of your ship's crew."
Yongguang Maiqiu abruptly interrupted him: "What are you trying to say?!"
Could it be that she's implying she looks like the head of the Norifusa crew?
She wouldn't admit that kind of person was her father! And it had to be a secret, otherwise she couldn't be a police officer...
She swore to the head of the personnel department that she would bring the leader of the Noble Ship Group to justice in order to barely continue working as a police officer... She absolutely could not give up this profession that her father, whom she respected, was proud of...
Even if it hurts others along the way, she must become a police officer!
Han Chuan Shenliu, who was rarely interrupted, paused uncomfortably for a moment: "I just called the head of the personnel department, and he has already told me the situation, I..."
Yongguang Maiqiu interrupted him again: "No need to say more, my goal is to bring him to justice, it doesn't matter who he is!"
No, actually, if the leader of the Noble Ship Group wasn't her biological father, and that wouldn't prevent her from becoming a police officer, she wouldn't hate him so much, but such speculation is meaningless.
"Let him finish speaking first. I think Shinryu might have something very important to say," Kenji Hagiwara advised.
Han Chuan Shenliu said expressionlessly, "Yes, I suggest you and the leader of the Kishin-gumi do a paternity test, because you are clearly not related by blood."
Yongguang Maiqiu: "?!?!?!?!"
--------------------
The female lead, Yongguang Maiqiu, is, well, quite unlikable; she really hurts others the whole time…
I was confused at first, not understanding how this character was created, until I saw the screenwriter's name.
【Sakurai Takeharu】
Readers who follow the Conan movie scriptwriting process probably already understand... It can only be explained by Sakurai, which makes sense...
This time, writing about Yongguang Maiqiu and the Conan crew together makes them practically family...
.
Han Chuan's background check... hahaha, we'll talk about that later.
