Chapter 88 Heiji's Suspicion
For Hattori Heiji, he felt that he had really met a tough opponent this time.

Of course, Japan's police system was rarely useful this time.

"Reporting to the commander! After the target returned to the security company, we found that three transport vehicles had reported leaving 15 minutes ago."

"We are currently using surveillance cameras to track the whereabouts of these three vehicles. Their exterior features are all silver-gray, and their license plate numbers are..."

In the communication system, the traffic department reported the surveillance information they obtained to Heiji who was sitting in the disguised police car.

"Team Two, Team Three," Heiji immediately grabbed the intercom in the disguised police car, "What's the situation over there?"

Looking down at the spread-out map of Beika Town, he picked up a red pen and circled the three intersections that the traffic class had told him.

While his mind was rapidly thinking about what to do next, Hattori Heiji rarely cursed in his heart.

"Damn it! I'm pretty sure no one knows about my investigation at the data center. Who leaked my information?!"

Just left the company fifteen minutes ago?

The timing was so coincidental that even Hattori Heiji couldn't convince himself that it was just a chance encounter.

This was almost at the same time that he asked the traffic department to investigate the actions of their company's security personnel.

This group of people has already started the transfer work!
My father's advice rang in my ears again.

"Heiji, we are now convinced that they have deep roots in government departments. This is very dangerous. You must be careful of everyone!"

My breathing became much heavier.

in case……

If there is an undercover agent planted by "Science Frontier" in our three teams now——

Heiji involuntarily put his hands on his waist. Now only the cold feeling could give him some sense of security.

He now began to doubt—

Then his action was keenly noticed by Sato in the driving seat.

Sato Akiji also realized the seriousness of the problem in an instant.

He was the first to empty all his pockets, throw his cell phone and some miscellaneous items out of the window, and then the next second he pressed the communicator of the walkie-talkie.

"Team Two! Team Three! I'm Akira, Kanta, Keito, you two will immediately supervise each other and search everyone in the team!"

Then he immediately turned around and yelled the same thing at the three supporting police officers in the back seat.

"And you three too, throw away all the communication equipment you have!"

"Turn all radios to Team One's channel. Until the mission is complete, all personnel can only communicate with Team One using the radios in their vehicles!"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Hattori Heiji didn't say anything.

But Sato Akiji could observe that his body, which had just tensed up, relaxed a little.

He knew that he and his teammates had been temporarily cleared of suspicion.

In fact, both Hattori Heiji and Sato Akiji now know that once this suspicion arises, it is almost impossible to completely eliminate it.

Even if you have been the first to prove it and have asked members of other teams to take remedial measures.

Even if all this is really just a coincidence.

But suspicion does not need a reason, or rather, suspicion can always find a reason.

"The most important thing now is that we can't lose our composure because of this incident!"

Sato's voice was a little anxious.

He absolutely did not want to see Hattori Heiji's possible doubts or hesitations about other action teams.

It is a taboo for a commander to distrust the strength of his subordinates, especially during an operation!
"This should just be a coincidence."

After facing Sato's remedial measures, Hattori Heiji obviously realized that his nervousness just now had caused distrust in the investigation team.

More importantly, this problem has no solution.

Even if their team threw away all private communication equipment, how could they be sure that the other two teams that were not in sight would do the same?
If there really was an undercover agent at the edge of science, would he surrender so easily?
Wouldn't they be carrying other hidden signal transmitters, or installing eavesdropping devices on all of our vehicles in advance?
Hattori Heiji also knew that this suspicion would never be completely cleared. This was also one of the most common problems encountered by the investigation teams of several major countries during their investigations.

After all, apart from the existence of undercover agents who led to the leakage of those action plans, the Strategic Command had no way of explaining to its superiors why the decisions they made were anticipated.

This often leads to commanders' distrust of their own team members when the investigation has just begun.

Or the team members began to distrust the commander.

Thinking of the failed operations he saw in the external support room, Hattori Heiji felt a little bitter.

I used to laugh at plans that seemed full of loopholes.

I didn't expect that there were only a dozen people involved this time, but my actions were still leaked.

Only when he actually faced this situation did Hattori Heiji feel how terrifying this ghostly pressure was.

Just now, the thought that all the others were undercover agents suddenly occurred to me, even if it was just a thought.

I can't think about it anymore!
Hattori Heiji forced himself to focus on this action.

He glanced at the traffic report on the screen again and spoke into the radio:

"I just received a message from the Traffic Control Division. Your two teams are to stop the two vehicles at the intersection of Meihua Street, TR Line, and 4-chome Daido Road."

Then he continued to urge the traffic section.

"Haven't you figured out the location of the escort vehicle driven out of the company by the Treasure Exhibition's security personnel? It was a van!"

"They can't fly out of Beika Town!"

"Private Marseille! We're investigating," an apologetic voice came from the other end of the line, "As soon as we have any information, I'll report it to you!"

"Be fast!"

Yawning a little lazily, Hattori Heiji rubbed his bloodshot eyes.

"Sir, why don't you go to the back seat and rest for a while? I will call you immediately if anything happens." Sato said that he would wake him up immediately if there was any movement.

Heiji waved his hands, indicating that he was fine.

"It's okay. When I was pursuing a case before, I could not rest until the case was solved."

He yawned again.

"Huh—I don't know why I just feel a little tired today."

After taking a look at the rare old detective who could follow his train of thought, Hattori Heiji felt that he needed to explain his thoughts.

"I'm increasingly certain that there's something fishy about that company. There must be something fishy about those security guards who stumbled upon that gang of Italian robbers."

"The other two vehicles are probably just a cover. They hope to distract us."

"In short, we must try to intercept the most important escort vehicle!"

……

What he didn't expect was that the next time he heard the news on the radio.

It had been daylight for a long time.

During these more than ten hours, Hattori Heiji felt that he had experienced the most difficult time in his life.

Anxiety, suspicion, anger, impatience...

It started as a question, then turned into a challenge, and then into an angry rant.

Hattori Heiji never knew he could lose his temper like this:
"I'm going to fire all of you! Fired, understand?!"

"It was already daybreak! It was just an escort vehicle! Could it be that your cameras couldn't capture even a single moment of it?"

"Ten whole hours!"
