Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 175 Collective "Resignation"

After hearing what Sonoko said, Xiaolan took a closer look at the actress on the screen and said in surprise: "Really! She does look a bit like Teacher Judy~"

"Is that so?" Yuanzi nodded with a smile.

Although Sonoko and Xiaolan were far away from Makino and Ayako and their conversation was very quiet, Makino could still hear their conversation clearly.

The conversation between Sonoko and the other person undoubtedly confirmed his previous guess that the FBI had indeed arrived in Tokyo.

The teacher Judy they are talking about must be Judy Stelling of the FBI.

If nothing unexpected happens, Shuichi Akai and other FBI members should have also quietly gathered in Tokyo.

Combined with what Furiya Rei said before, it seems that Gin will have a harder time next~
Not only must he personally complete the tasks assigned by the organization, but he must also beware of revenge from members of the organization related to Pisco, and even pay attention to the FBI...

He is truly a model worker of the organization.

When it comes to gin, another important figure in the distillery immediately comes to Makino’s mind - rum.

He cares more about Rum's purpose and movements than Gin and the FBI.

Judging from the descriptions of Vermouth and Rei Furuya, Rum came to Tokyo this time to carry out the task assigned to him by the organization's boss.

A task that can be carried out personally by the second-in-command of an organization must not be simple.

Rum's mission is likely to be related to the "heart" of the distillery.

But neither Vermouth nor Rei Furuya knew much about Rum.

Although Rei Furuya had dealt with Rum several times due to missions, they were all contacted through telephone. Rei Furuya could only judge from the limited exchanges that Rum himself was an impatient person and extremely cautious in character.

Although Vermouth had met Rum several times, Rum had a different appearance every time she saw him, and it was obvious that he had undergone some disguise.

The only information she could confirm was that Rum was a male, that he had a strong memory and analytical ability, and that one of his eyes was an "artificial eye".

However, in addition to things about Rum himself, Vermouth also mentioned Rum's subordinates. Rum has a confidant who also has an excellent memory, named Curacao, who is currently investigating undercover in various countries.

This is all the key information that Vermouth and Rei Furuya currently know about Rum.

Makino knew that it would be difficult to find and catch Rum with just this little information before Rum started working at the sushi restaurant.

Moreover, he was not in a hurry to find Rum, because his goal was not simply to capture Rum, but to find a way to obtain the "important intelligence and information" that Rum possessed.

This is undoubtedly much more complicated than simply catching the rum.

……

After watching the movie, Makino and his friends left the theater.

Since it was not very late and tomorrow was a holiday, Sonoko suggested playing mahjong for a while longer and vowed that they would not lose so badly this time.

Hearing this, Makino glanced at Xiaolan, who looked expectant, and then looked helplessly at Ayako beside him.

After noticing Makino's gaze, Ayako nodded and chuckled, "Since Sonoko said so, let's play for a while~"

after an hour.

Yuanzi lay dejectedly on the mahjong table, and the light in his eyes had disappeared again.

Only her stool was empty, while everyone else's stools had more or less "snacks" on them.

This time, Xiaolan's luck was still good, and Makino and Ayako's luck was not bad either. Only Sonoko was wiped out.

A few seconds later, under the gazes of Makino and the other two, which were mixed with inexplicable smiles, Yuanzi slowly climbed up from the mahjong table and said, "I suddenly feel a little sleepy. Why don't we stop here today..."

After saying that, Sonoko stood up and pulled Xiaolan beside her, and walked towards the bedroom while handing Xiaolan a pair of noise-canceling headphones that she had taken out from somewhere.

"Xiaolan, be sure to wear these headphones before going to bed tonight."

"Huh? Why?"

"Don't ask too much. There are complicated reasons behind this."

"Yeah, I know."

"..."

Since the two of them did not deliberately lower their voices, Makino and Ayako could clearly hear their conversation.

There was no special expression on Makino's face, but Ayako's face was obviously much redder than before.

……

The next morning.

After breakfast, Makino wanted to drive everyone to the amusement park, but just before leaving, Makino suddenly received a call from Minister Odagiri.

After hanging up the phone, Makino looked at Ayako and the others embarrassedly.

Without waiting for Makino to speak, Ayako chuckled and said, "It's okay, you go and do your work first~"

Sonoko and Xiaolan also nodded with a smile, telling Makino not to worry about it and to get back to work.

Everyone knew that police officers never had stable holidays.

What's more, given Makino's current "position", anything that could disturb him on his day off must not be a small case.

Seeing this, Makino nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will try to solve the case as quickly as possible, and then come back to take you to the amusement park~"

"Long Yi, remember to call me before lunch~"

"Let's just watch TV at home first, Brother Long Yi, please hurry up~"

"Sonoko, Makino-san is going to handle a case, but you made it sound like he was going shopping~"

"..."

Not long after, Makino drove to the Metropolitan Police Department.

Inside the Criminal Department Director's office.

Just now on the phone, Minister Odagiri just told him that something "big" might have happened, but did not give any detailed explanation.

Makino frowned as he looked at Minister Odagiri and Manager Matsumoto, whose expressions were filled with "worry" and "confusion."

The expressions of these two people were obviously not right. If a serious case had occurred, their expressions should not be like this.

After seeing Makino, Minister Odagiri glanced at Officer Matsumoto in front of him, who immediately spoke up: "Counselor, this is what happened. Not long ago, Megure and his team handled a drug case, and Officers Takagi and Sato brought two drug dealers back to the Metropolitan Police Department."

Hearing this, Makino nodded and said, "I know, you mean the two drug dealers named Chizo Ogura and Akira Akira, right?"

Manager Matsumoto nodded and said, "Yes, Inspector Megure and his team successfully found the hideout of the drug trafficking group behind them based on the clues provided by these two people. Last week, the police officers from the Investigation Section 1 and the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department worked together to arrest a large number of drug dealers, but some drug dealers managed to escape."

Makino nodded, motioning for Manager Matsumoto to continue. He had indeed read the report on this matter before, so he still had some impression of it.

Seeing that Makino had understood the "precedent", Manager Matsumoto continued, "In fact... Officer Takagi and Officer Sato from the First Investigation Division seem to have made an appointment to go to the amusement park together. Many officers from the First Investigation Division have taken a day off until today, and even borrowed a large amount of surveillance equipment from the Metropolitan Police Department." Makino: "???"

Hearing this, Makino looked at Manager Matsumoto in front of him with a strange look.

You changed the subject too suddenly, didn't you?

We just talked about a lot of things about drug dealers, why are we suddenly talking about Takagi and Sato's "romance"? !
If Makino didn't know that Officer Matsumoto was not the kind of "honest" police officer who liked to joke, he would probably have wanted to punch him on the spot.

After noticing Makino's gaze, Manager Matsumoto coughed awkwardly and continued, "Just half an hour ago, the police officer who went to track and monitor Takagi and Sato suddenly sent back a message saying that Takagi and Sato suddenly disappeared."

"Disappear?"

"That's right. After the two disappeared, Officer Shiratori found Officer Sato's backpack in a rest area of ​​an amusement facility." Manager Matsumoto nodded.

After hearing this, Makino finally understood why the expressions on Manager Matsumoto and Minister Odagiri's faces were so "subtle".

If the lost bag was Takagi's, Makino might not think much about it.

But if the person who lost the bag was Officer Sato...

After thinking for a while, Makino looked straight at Manager Matsumoto in front of him and said, "Why didn't you tell me such an important thing at the beginning? Do you suspect that the disappearance of Takagi and Sato is related to the members of the drug cartel who have not yet been captured?"

Looking at Makino's slightly angry expression, Manager Matsumoto bowed his head in shame and said, "I'm sorry, because I just found out about this too, and I'm not sure yet whether the two of them are..."

Minister Odagiri at the side also spoke up at this time: "Makino, Matsumoto only learned about this news not long ago. And it is not certain yet that their 'disappearance' is related to the drug dealers."

Hearing this, Makino glanced at Minister Odagiri and sighed slowly.

These words were obviously a way for Minister Odagiri to help Administrator Matsumoto get out of this situation.

If Minister Odagiri really thought so, he would not have called me specifically.

Obviously, both Manager Matsumoto and Minister Odagiri realized that there might be other hidden reasons behind Takagi and Sato's "sudden disappearance".

After all, no matter what, under the "surveillance" of the police officers from the Investigation Division, it is absolutely impossible for Takagi and Sato to disappear easily.

At this moment, Manager Matsumoto's cell phone suddenly rang.

After hearing the content of the call, Manager Matsumoto was shocked and said, "What?! You said that Shiratori and Officer Harada are missing too?!"

Makino: "..."

After hanging up the phone, Manager Matsumoto's eyes suddenly became extremely solemn.

If only Takagi and Sato were missing, there might be other "possibilities".

But now that two more police officers are missing, I'm afraid there is only one worst possibility left!
Minister Odagiri frowned and said, "Matsumoto, I remember that Officer Shiratori and Officer Harada also participated in the operation to arrest the drug dealers, right?"

"That's right." Manager Matsumoto gritted his teeth.

The next moment, Minister Odagiri stood up and said, "Hold an investigation meeting immediately! Matsumoto, have someone contact the police officers who participated in the arrest of the drug trafficking group and confirm their situation! You lead the team to the scene immediately!"

"Yes!" Manager Matsumoto immediately ran out of the office.

After finishing speaking, Minister Odagiri looked at Makino, as if waiting for Makino's judgment.

Makino nodded and said, "From the current situation, Officer Takagi and his team have indeed been targeted by the remaining criminals of the drug trafficking group. Judging from the fact that they were able to 'kidnap' Takagi and his team in front of so many police officers, it seems that they were well prepared, and they probably have a lot of manpower.

Secondly, given that they chose to "kidnap" rather than "harm" Officer Takagi and others, they would definitely contact us on their own initiative.

They may want to use the hostages as a bargaining chip to get us to release other captured drug dealers, or in the worst case, they want to take 'public revenge' on the Metropolitan Police Department."

The next moment, Makino said, "Minister, I won't go to the meeting. I plan to go directly to the scene."

Hearing this, Minister Odagiri glanced at Makino in front of him, and after a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "I understand, but you must pay attention to your own safety. Contact me at any time if there is any situation."

"Yes!"

……

A few minutes later.

After leaving the Metropolitan Police Department, Makino drove to the amusement park.

Not to mention Takagi, with Officer Sato's skills, it would be impossible for an ordinary criminal to kidnap her without making any "noise".

To be able to do this means that the criminals must have guns in their hands, and there must be a lot of them.

Only in this way could they kidnap the two people without making any noise in front of so many police officers who were "monitoring" them.

This is also one of the reasons why he believes that the criminal is most likely a surviving member of the drug trafficking group.

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in Makino's eyes.

He had finally found a few outstanding subordinates from the "general talent" search class, but these damn guys actually kidnapped three of them?
There are guns + drug dealers + kidnapping his three lovely subordinates...

No matter from which angle he looked at it, there was no need for him to hold back.

……

At the same time, in a black van.

Takagi and his men, who were tied up with ropes, sat back to back.

In addition to the ropes on their bodies, their eyes were covered and their mouths were sealed with black tape.

Although they were not prepared to sit and wait for death, they did not do anything "small tricks" behind the scenes as they did not know if anyone was watching them.

Officer Sato kept track of the time while recording in his mind the frequency and number of turns the car made.

While buying drinks, she had already discovered her "colleagues" who were "monitoring" herself and Takagi from a distance.

Therefore, when she later noticed that something seemed wrong with the situation around her, she secretly hid her bag in a convenient place, hoping that her colleagues who were monitoring her would find this clue and understand their situation.

Sure enough, just a few minutes later, as soon as he and Takagi walked into the dark waiting area for the amusement rides, they were pointed at with guns by the "tourists" in front and behind them.

Afterwards, they were held at gunpoint, followed by the men into a black van, and then tied up.

Along the way, no matter what she and Gao Mu asked, the group seemed to be unable to hear them and completely ignored them.

Although he was not familiar with the appearance of these criminals, Officer Sato was able to guess their general purpose just by looking at the guns in their hands.

Ordinary criminal gangs don’t have so many guns.

The people who kidnapped them are most likely the remnants of the drug trafficking group from some time ago.

A few minutes later, in addition to her and Takagi, there were two more "little friends" who shared the same suffering.

Although he couldn't see the two's faces and couldn't communicate with them, Sato vaguely guessed that the two "little friends" who came later might also be their "colleagues".
