Shinya Takeshita felt relieved when he saw it was Yuki Morita. He laughed and scolded, "What are you doing here instead of going to work?"
Morita Yuki chuckled and said in a low voice, "I knew you got promoted and moved to a bigger office, so I came to admire it!"
He knew that Captain Akita Akihito's office was right next door, so he didn't dare to speak loudly.
Shinya Takeshita smiled smugly, returned to his seat, leaned back comfortably, patted the armrests, and said with a laugh, "Don't be envious. I risked my life for this. This is enough. I can't take any more risks in the future. I really escaped death!"
Thinking about this, I can't help but feel lingering fear. Given his nature, how could he possibly be willing to take a bullet for someone else? Especially for a Japanese person? This was a completely undeserved disaster!
Morita Yuki stepped forward, sat across the desk, and smiled at Takeshita Shinya, saying, "You know what? That guy Iwai has been transferred to the action team. That bastard is finally gone. Everyone's overjoyed. They also heard you're back and got a promotion, so they're all thinking of going out to celebrate. They asked me to come and ask you how it went?"
So it turned out they wanted to take advantage of him. Takeshita Shin was used to being taken advantage of, so how could he let himself suffer this loss? He rolled his eyes and said in a drawn-out tone, "Want to get together? Of course! But I don't have any money in my pocket!"
After saying that, he looked rather helpless and habitually put his hand into his pocket and reached out. However, he completely forgot about what had happened before. His usually empty pocket suddenly had a handful of brand-new banknotes fall out with a "thud".
Seeing the banknotes fall out and scatter all over the ground, the two of them were stunned, and the scene became very awkward!
A moment later, Morita Yuki looked at Takeshita Shinya with utter disdain, but Takeshita Shinya, who had been exposed on the spot, remained unfazed and said, "Alright, I was just thinking of celebrating with everyone, cough cough, how about we split the cost?"
"You stingy bastard, you still have so much hidden away, yet you keep trying to freeload off me every day, how despicable!" Morita Yuki pointed at the despicable guy and cursed him, then without hesitation, lunged forward to snatch the banknotes from the ground.
Shinya Takeshita saw that someone was willing to do it, so he quickly tried to grab it too. In the end, the two friends, neither willing to give in, ended up in a brawl.
On a main street in the city, Luo Xingchao, the action captain of the Special Investigation Division, was leading his team out of a shop. One of his team members leaned close and whispered, "Captain, this Zhuyou Chamber of Commerce is said to have Japanese connections. Let's take another look. That Fuyuan Trading Company up ahead is owned by a wealthy businessman from Zhejiang. It must be quite lucrative; it won't disappoint you!"
Luo Xingchao turned around and glanced at the Zhuyou Chamber of Commerce signboard with hostility. This time, he had come to their door, but they hadn't shown any appreciation whatsoever. He thought to himself that he would teach them a lesson sooner or later.
One of the most important functions of the Special Investigation Department is to monitor prohibited goods in the market. They have the right to investigate the transactions of any chamber of commerce in Shanghai. If it involves weapons, medicines, steel, etc., it is within their scope of supervision. If necessary, they also have the right to monitor the telephone communications and correspondence of merchants. They have a lot of power.
The investigation department's work has just begun. Luo Xingchao and his men were trying to freeload in their own jurisdiction, but they ran into a tough opponent right away, which naturally made them unhappy!
His men were mostly street thugs, and Kang Dong, one of his men, was a local Green Gang member who knew the situation of every business in the area like the back of his hand. He was specifically responsible for leading the way and investigating the situation for him.
"Let's go. You go back and investigate the background of this Zhuyou Chamber of Commerce. I don't believe they can be more powerful than the Special Higher Police. I'll make them pay sooner or later!" Luo Xingchao said sullenly.
"Yes!" Kang Dong quickly replied.
After a busy morning, it was lunchtime, and Kang Dong stepped forward and asked, "Captain, would you like to find a place to eat something?"
Luo Xingchao's face darkened. He was now not only the action captain of the investigation department, but also a traitor of the military intelligence investigation department. Who knew if the assassination team would come after him? Therefore, these intelligence station agents rarely ate or drank outside.
But before he could finish his reprimand, his peripheral vision caught sight of a young man in a top hat to his side, and his eyes immediately narrowed!
The young man took off his top hat, lightly flicked off the dust with his hand, gave a slight nod with his eyes, and then turned and walked into the alley behind him.
Luo Xingchao forced himself to hide his excitement, and casually pointed to a nearby restaurant, saying, "You guys go eat at that restaurant, I'll go straight back to the office!"
"Captain, you... are you!"
Seeing Luo Xingchao's impatient look, Kang Dong quickly nodded in agreement and left with his team members.
Luo Xingchao watched them leave before casually walking down the alleyway.
