The so-called Economic Conference, whose full name is the National Political and Economic Policy Conference, is held in the National Diet Building in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo. The main attendees are senior officials and financial executives.
These high-ranking officials are often very careful about their lives, so in addition to the police who specialize in protecting senior politicians, the Metropolitan Police Department will also select elite police officers from various departments to work together to ensure the safety of the meeting.
Under the strong security forces, the meeting was held exceptionally smoothly. However, we need to be vigilant at night because the dinner party held by the economic conference will not only have many service personnel but also a lot of media present. It is a mixed crowd and it is the time when accidents are most likely to happen.
The mission given by the winery this time is to let Miyazaki Ren work with Bermode and Campari to protect the safety of the winery's partners. These partners are well aware of the capabilities of this multinational organization and have carefully entrusted the winery with security.
The luxuriously decorated lobby was brightly lit and magnificent. People in elegant clothes were holding champagne glasses and chatting with each other. Everyone had a proper smile on their face, just like exquisite puppets produced in batches on an assembly line.
Kenji Hagiwara, Jinpei Matsuda, and Ren Miyazaki were assigned to pretend to be service staff because of their outstanding looks, while Kou Date and Inspector Nakamori became security guards at the venue.
"Oh, my dear sir, being a waiter is such a waste. If you're willing, I'll be waiting for your call anytime." The hot blonde in a red deep-V dress stuffed a card into Miyazaki Ren's bra pocket and blew him a kiss before leaving.
Miyazaki Ren had a tic-tac-toe on his forehead. This woman, Vermouth, was really bored and came to entertain him.
Unfortunately, his peers were unaware of this. They carefully observed the dynamics of the venue and joked with him, "Miyazaki, I didn't expect you to be more popular with women than Hagi. You have a bright future~"
Kenji Hagihara has been around women for a long time and knows a lot about girls, such as the outfit of the blonde woman just now. "The dress she wore was a spring couture dress and pearl jewelry from Sumoto. She is a rich lady. Miyazaki, you have to seize the opportunity."
"Hagi, you know so much. Are you preparing to enter the industry? If you like, I can introduce you to someone." Miyazaki Ren said as she took a look at Hagihara Kenji's figure. He was tall, had long legs, a narrow waist and a rounded hip. "He has great potential and has the potential to be a top star."
Matsuda Jinpei laughed insincerely when he heard this, but Hagiwara Kenji didn't take it seriously. Instead, he puffed out his chest proudly. He was always very confident in himself in this regard, "You have a good eye, Miyazaki."
Miyazaki Ren and Matsuda Jinpei are both very disappointed, as they still underestimated this guy's bottom line in this regard.
"Give me a glass of water." Ginzo Nakamori said breathlessly.
Miyazaki Ren always treated her leader with respect, and quickly served him a glass of soda water.
After taking a big sip, Nakamori Ginzo came back to life, "I am so exhausted. When will this boring party end?"
Compared to the three people acting as waiters at the venue, Ginzo Nakamori, as a security guard, needs to patrol everywhere without stopping and must be highly focused, which is really tiring.
"Hey, look, isn't that Inspector Tenai?" Jinpei Matsuda said in surprise as he looked at the two people in the distance. He hadn't seen Takuma Tenai among the security personnel today, and was wondering why Inspector Tenai, who was the signature of the Metropolitan Police Department, didn't come. It turned out that he was disguised as a bodyguard.
Hagiwara Kenji looked in the direction he was looking at. "Really? The one next to Inspector Tenjing looks like Minister Shindo?"
Nakamori Ginzo and Miyazaki Ren both had gloomy expressions on their faces. Hagiwara Kenji and Matsuda Jinpei were puzzled. "Inspector Nakamori, why do you look like that?"
"Shindo Daigo is not a good guy." As a senior police officer, Ginzo Nakamori obviously knows a lot of gossip. He explained to the Explosion Squad duo, "He and Superintendent Tenai are not on good terms."
The two of them immediately showed their special expressions of eating melons, "Why? Inspector Nakamori, can you explain it in detail?"
"When Superintendent Tenjing first joined the job, he solved a serial murder case and arrested Shindo's only son. The family had a lot of connections, but they were all ruined by Superintendent Tenjing. Superintendent Tenjing did a lot of things that got his son sentenced to death. Since then, he has always been targeting Superintendent Tenjing. Otherwise, with Superintendent Tenjing's achievements, he would not be just a superintendent now."
Nakamori Ginzo was obviously eager to share, and he spoke a long string of words. Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji had never thought that there was such a connection between the two. "Then why did he let Inspector Tenai be his personal bodyguard?"
Nakamori Ginzo didn't understand why, so he could only guess, "Maybe it's because Inspector Tenjing is such a good person and has great abilities, so that's why the Shindo guy did this?"
Hagiwara Kenji and Matsuda Jinping looked at each other, feeling that this reason was not so tenable. After all, he was a politician who valued his life.
"Because he hasn't given up on revenge." Miyazaki Ren's cold voice sounded, "If he has any problems, it can be blamed on the intentional revenge of the Tianjing police, so the Tianjing police must 100% guarantee his safety. If there is any failure to do so, it can become his handle."
The three of them suddenly realized what was going on. "That guy Shindo is really shameless!"
That's right. If there was a ranking of the most annoying people, Miyazaki Ren would vote for Shindo Daigo without hesitation.
You have to know that his original plan was not that complicated. He had three aliases. One was a veteran policeman who made appearances with Inspector Megure and others. One was a freshman policeman who went undercover with Furuya Rei and others. The remaining one was a detective novelist who worked with Kudo Shinichi and others to fully occupy all areas of the Red Team.
Unfortunately, the plan could not keep up with the changes. In accordance with his character setting, the second alias Takuma Amai always insisted on his own justice and was targeted by Daigo Shindo. Then a series of events happened, causing the alias Ren Miyazaki to fall into the winery.
He had to change the plan afterwards. It can be said that Shindo Daigo made an indispensable contribution to Miyazaki Ren's ten-year experimental subject career, so it would be strange if he had a good attitude towards him.
As Miyazaki Ren was talking, he suddenly saw a red dot reflected on the crystal lamp. It was a sniper rifle! He pressed the alarm inside the winery. At the same time, Takuma Tenjou and Bermode quickly pulled the people around them and hid behind the bunker.
"Bang" the bullet came and hit the sculpture. If it weren't for Takuma Amai's pull, it would have hit Daigo Shindo.
At this moment, the few people were no longer in the mood to eat melons and chat idly, and quickly became alert.
"Zhuxing, at the seven o'clock direction, the tallest building, the sniper is at that position." Takuma Amai gave the order quickly.
Those attending the banquet were all people who claimed to be noble. Even if they were afraid, they had to maintain proper decency. They had pale faces and did not utter a word. The bustling hall fell silent for a while.
Miyazaki Ren quickly moved to the side of Bermode. The person they were going to protect this time was Shimamoto Hirohito, one of the highest-ranking people among the winery's partners and also one of Shindo Daigo's political enemies.
Shimamoto Hirohito is a man who looks like Maitreya Buddha, with thick earlobes, a big belly, and a smiling face. He looks amiable, but his words are not so gentle. "Really, how can the reaction of Tianjing police be so fast? Shindo is so lucky. The night is more suitable for blood-red flowers. It's a pity that I can't see it."
Miyazaki Ren played the role of a tool without saying a word. Belmode smiled and said, "We are already cultivating it. Before you reach the top, you will definitely be able to appreciate more beautiful flowers than this."
Shimamoto Hirohito and Shindo Daigo were both high-ranking cabinet officials, both striving for the highest position. They had powerful families and different supporters behind them. In front of the public, they were friendly and helpful to each other, but in reality, they probably prayed for each other to die soon before going to bed every day.
Bermode's words were an assurance to Shimamoto Hirohito that the organization was already planning the demise of Shindo Daigo and would never give Shindo Daigo the opportunity to compete with him for the top position.
"Hahaha, you guys are always so considerate. Come to my room tonight to discuss the line we talked about before." He said, stroking Vermouth's smooth back with his fat hands.
This fat pig is still full of garbage at this time.
Miyazaki Ren squeezed in between the two men, picked up Shimamoto Hirohito by the waist, and ran away, "Mr. Shimamoto, it's not safe here, and the police force is easily dispersed. Let's go to the patio to patrol there now. With his ability and our help, we will definitely be safe."
Shimamoto Hirohito was about to refuse. After all, the first shot was aimed at Shindo Daigo, and he didn't want to go over and be a target.
But before he could say no, "bang" another bullet hit the spot where they had just been hiding. Shimamoto Hirohito was still in shock, it turned out that he was also a target, and he didn't dare to say anything more. Compared with the young Miyazaki Ren, the brilliant resume of Tenai Takuma could bring him a sense of security.
"The high-rise building at 10 o'clock, the stars." Takuma Amai just glanced at the arrival of the three people and quickly gave instructions into the earphone.
Shindo Daigo really doesn't get along with Aoi Takuma, and he still finds fault with him even now, "It seems that Inspector Aoi is not that powerful. He has two snipers now. Was he just a nobody before?"
Takuma Tenjou ignored him and continued to observe the surroundings with a telescope.
Shimamoto Hirohito had always been against him, and even though there were people sent by the winery at this time, he was very convinced by Amagi Takuma. It was always good to have more people to protect him in times of crisis. "Minister Shindo is wrong. Superintendent Amagi is only responsible for protecting people. How can you blame him?"
After saying this, he looked at Takuma Amai expectantly, hoping that the other party would be moved by his generosity and thoughtfulness.
Unfortunately, Tenjiu Takuma didn't even glance at him. He was really tired of working in the scene with two vests, especially in such a critical moment. He didn't want to pay attention to these words. He put down the telescope, set up the sniper rifle, and "swish" he changed direction after firing a bullet.
No one present would doubt that he couldn't shoot accurately. Takuma Amai was the most powerful sniper in the Metropolitan Police Department. In his prime, he could snipe a bird from 2,400 meters away. Even though he was injured later and his ability was far less than before, he was still the best in the Metropolitan Police Department.
As Takuma Amai fired shot after shot, there were no more bullets in the venue. It was safe!
Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara, who were protecting other officials, widened their eyes in surprise, "Wow, so handsome!" They now had no way of connecting this calm and composed Inspector Tenjing with the man who had chatted up with them backstage at the graduation ceremony.
Nakamori Ginzo, who was standing alert beside Mokikura, heard this and replied proudly, "Of course, Inspector Tenjing is known as a man who walks the police code. In addition to his perfect character, he is the best in other aspects, and sniping is no exception."
After resolving this "little incident", the service staff quickly cleaned up the mess. These high-ranking officials and wealthy people straightened their appearance and restored their noble looks. Even if they were afraid in their hearts, they could not show it and remained elegant at all times. This is the decency they should have.
The hall was bustling and lively again, but unfortunately this banquet was destined to be full of twists and turns.
"You can't drink this glass of champagne!" After her identity was exposed, Miyazaki Ren has been following Shimamoto Hirohito and no longer pretending to be a waiter.
Shimamoto Hirohito still trusted the people sent by this cooperative organization. He put down his glass with some fear. Bermode picked up the glass of champagne and observed it carefully. There was a circle of marks on the edge of the exquisite and clean champagne glass, as if it had been wiped by something.
"What, what is this?!" Shimamoto Hirohito approached Miyazaki Ren in horror. He had just been on the brink of life and death, and now he trusted the person who helped him even more.
"We still need to examine what it is, but it's not a good thing. Mr. Shimamoto, I'm going to go talk to Inspector Tenjing first. The murderer is hiding among us, we have to catch him." Miyazaki Ren wrapped the wine glass with her hand silk, "Mr. Shimamoto, stay here first, she will protect you."
Shimamoto Hirohito is a typical island man. He looks down on women. Compared with the hot Vermouth, he trusts Miyazaki Ren and Akai Takuma more and keeps saying, "Together, together."
Here, Tenjo Takuma had just stopped Shindo Daigo from drinking champagne. When he saw them coming, his face was grim, "Miyazaki, did you encounter them there too?"
"Yes, Patio Police."
"Stars, there is a problem with the champagne glasses. Notify everyone, suspend drinking, and gather all service staff."
Each official and wealthy person was protected by one or two policemen. After hearing Takuma Amai's instructions, they all started checking the champagne glasses, but in the end, only Daigo Shindo and Hirohito Shimamoto were found to have problems.
After hearing the feedback, Shimamoto Hirohito and Shindo Daigo widened their eyes in panic. Today's assassination targets were the two of them, specifically targeting them!
Compared to the relatively calm Shindo Daigo, Shimamoto Hirohito was obviously much more panicked. He pulled Miyazaki Ren's sleeve and said, "What should we do? You must protect me, that person--"
"Mr. Shimamoto, don't worry. You will be fine with me here." Miyazaki Ren interrupted Shimamoto Hirohito to prevent him from saying something in panic.
After receiving Miyazaki Ren's assurance, Shimamoto Hirohito felt relieved. Just as Miyazaki Ren had assured him, he had ensured that Shimamoto Hirohito would be well protected.
At the moment the silver knife stabbed Shimamoto Hirohito, Miyazaki Ren immediately subdued the waiter.
"Maruyama?" There was quite a commotion here, and all eyes in the hall were instantly drawn here. Social expert Kenji Hagiwara recognized this colleague from the same department at a glance, but he belonged to the bomb disposal team, while the service personnel named Maruyama who was under control belonged to the Security Division, specializing in protecting politicians.
Shimamoto Hirohito and Shindo Daigo were both mature politicians. They looked at each other and Shindo Daigo spoke first. He ordered his secretary, "Take the man away."
Maruyama on the ground heard this and struggled, "Shindo Daigo, Shimamoto Hirohito, you--" He couldn't say the rest of the words, Miyazaki Ren quickly stuffed a handkerchief into his mouth.
What a clever kid! The two cabinet ministers praised Miyazaki Ren in their hearts at the same time. They knew their own business. It was obvious that this guy named Maruyama had a grudge against them. They had done too many immoral things and they didn't want to be exposed in public.
"Nakamori, take him away." Takuma Amai stopped Shindo Daigo's secretary and loudly instructed Ginzo Nakamori.
Shimamoto Hirohito stepped forward to stop him and said, "Since he wants to assassinate me, why don't you just let me handle him?"
Tian Jing Takuma ignored him and said, "Nakamori, what are you waiting for? Why don't you take him away quickly?"
Being humiliated by a junior in public, the fat on Shimamoto Hirohito's face trembled. He tried hard to maintain a friendly smile, "Officer Tianjing, you——"
Miyazaki Ren quickly pulled him, and Shimamoto Hirohito didn't understand what was going on. However, at this moment, he had some trust in the person sent by his partner who had saved his life many times, so he stopped talking.
"Mr. Shimamoto, if you want, that gentleman will make sure Maruyama never appears in front of anyone again." Miyazaki Ren assured Shimamoto Hirohito.
Shimamoto Hirohito also came to his senses at this time. As a politician, the most important thing is face. He was indeed a little out of control just now. Thanks to Miyazaki Ren who pulled him back, he did not continue to lose control. What a smart subordinate.
He didn't respond, but asked with interest, "You are good, would you consider working for me?"
"Thank you for your kindness, but I have more important tasks to do." Miyazaki Ren declined.
Shimamoto Hirohito showed an unhappy expression on his face. The superiors often do not tolerate rejection. Vermouth came to the rescue at the right time and said, "Mr. Shimamoto, the blooming of the bloody flower cannot be separated from him as a gardener."
Then Shimamoto Hirohito understood that Miyazaki Ren was one of the winery's pawns to get rid of Shindo Daigo, and he stopped talking.
As soon as the banquet ended, Miyazaki Ren received the task of rescuing Maruyama who was imprisoned in the confinement room of the Second Investigation Section.
At twelve o'clock that night, Maruyama died in the confinement room. The cause of death was cardiac arrest.
In the dark room, there is a man whose face cannot be seen clearly.
"Have you made up your mind? Give up your name, face and identity and become that bullet."
"I am certain that I am already dead, and I sacrificed myself to achieve a greater good."
.....
In the Metropolitan Police Department cafeteria, Matsuda Jinpei, Hagiwara Kenji and Miyazaki Ren were still sitting at the same table.
"Miyazaki, I heard that Maruyama is dead?!" Jinpei Matsuda felt sad about the departure of this familiar colleague.
Miyazaki Ren nodded. "My heart was numb. He passed away suddenly."
"What a coincidence, what a coincidence! Have you found out the reason why he committed the assassination?"
"We didn't have time to catch him. Not long after we withdrew our troops, we found him dead."
"I do have a guess about the reason." As a social expert, Kenji Hagiwara obviously has many channels of information. "Maruyama has a sister who served as secretary to Shindo and Shimamoto successively. She later committed suicide. Everyone is saying that it is related to this. I saw on social media that Minister Shimamoto was honest and loved the people. I didn't expect..."
Hagiwara Kenji sighed, and Miyazaki Ren swallowed the last bite of rice. "Politicians are the best liars. You can never trust politicians."
