I am the devil, I only know how to trade.

"Excessive self-defense?" Shinomiya Un'taka raised his face and laughed. "Dream on! They were carrying recording equipment when they went out to search. How did they manage to invite Yui Yuigahama? Didn't they agree not to hurt her? This is intentional homicide! Yukino Yukinoshita wants to change the case? Dream on! Expose their relationship and what she wants to do."

"Those idiots won't think about the deeper meaning; as long as it's true, that's enough!"

"Finally, switch the goods at the Superintendent's office with some life-saving medicine!"

"Showing people more horrific scenes in hospitals and claiming it's to save their lives—what Yukino Yukinoshita is doing is taking their lives away!"

"We represent justice now! She's the one who deserves to die!"

Chapter 258 Reversal

The next morning, Yukino felt refreshed and invigorated.

Although she didn't sleep much last night, she's still in a great mood.

When she arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department, she found that her colleagues were looking at her strangely.

She was a little confused. What was going on?

She couldn't help but touch her neck. The hickeys hadn't faded yet, but it couldn't be that bad. Didn't she see them yesterday?

Seeing her touch her neck, everyone turned around immediately, except for Fuwa Yuuki, who seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

Yukino returned to her seat somewhat bewildered, turned on her computer, and intended to continue following up on the case.

"Yukinoshita, come here for a moment."

Just then, Inspector Okayama arrived in front of Yukino, his face grim.

“Okay.” Yukino followed Inspector Okayama and found that he was not leading her to the desk, but to an empty office.

Inspector Okayama sat in the main seat, opened a video, rotated the screen, and said to Yukino, "Take a look."

Although Yukino was a little confused, she still started watching.

Soon, her eyes widened.

The video showed her sister's transaction!

Wait, it's Shinomiya Un'taka who's smuggling!

She looked at the people in the picture, and it was indeed her sister giving instructions, telling those people to take the medicine and antique paintings back.

This time was different from last time. Last time, all she saw was Haruno going to Shinomiya Un'taka's place, so she instinctively felt that Haruno was being framed.

Judging from her current actions, not going to find Yang Naiwen is a foolish move, because she should have expected that Yang Naiwen would take risks for her...

She's now reflecting on why she didn't ask. She should have asked!

There was only one possibility she could think of: Luo Feng's interference!

What exactly are they trading, and why is it interfering with me?

Yukino felt that Luo Feng would never deliberately target her, because Luo Feng liked to make people accept defeat wholeheartedly and find a glimmer of hope among countless wrong choices, making people regret their actions.

Even Yukino was unaware that this transaction would inadvertently trap Yukino. She never imagined that this day would come when she thought the authorities wouldn't discover or punish her for smuggling.

"Take another look at this news article," Inspector Qiu said with a stern face.

Yukino glanced at the title and felt like she'd been hit by a hammer.

Yukino Yukinoshita, a Hero?

The above details her relationship with Yang Nai and the reasons why she continued her investigation.

They even brought up Yui Yuigahama's case, along with a recording of the bodyguard inviting Yui Yuigahama.

She was trembling as she looked at the comments.

'Damn, it turns out it's all about capital.'

'I thought we'd produced a good cop, is that all?'

'Yukino Yukinoshita, die!'

'Damn it, I even wanted to go to police academy.'

How did someone like that become a police officer?

"Go through the back door, I'll smuggle goods to support you as a policeman."

'Being her classmate must be so wonderful; you could even get away with murder.'

'Yes, I listened to the recording. They only extended an invitation. If they wanted to silence me, they have guns; they could just shoot, right?'

'Could it be because he's afraid of being shot?'

'Does being afraid to shoot mean it's not murder?'

'I'm so scared, I might accidentally kill you. Please don't make me pay compensation or go to jail, okay?'

'She went to such lengths to save her sister; that's true sisterly love. I wish I had a sister like that.'

"To be honest, as a complete bystander, I wish I had a police officer friend like that."

'It's fine if I know this kind of person, but if other people know them, I'll just feel jealous.'

'Is this law enforcement? What scum!'

'It's been a long time since we've seen police like this exposed; the older sister is devastated, and the younger sister is panicking.'

Yukino began to tremble all over.

That's absolutely not her intention, not at all!

She handled so many cases, killed so many people who oppressed them, all for the sake of making this country a better place, for making their lives a better place.

I really didn't know my sister was involved in smuggling; otherwise, we could have kept things separate!

"And this too." Inspector Qiu Shan opened another news article.

The significance behind this smuggling operation: Does law prevail over sentiment?

Yukino watched the news in a daze.

The police have provided conclusive evidence that the Shinomiya family was not smuggling drugs, but rather the same life-saving medication as last time.

The image above is of a middle-aged woman kneeling in obeisance before a drug dealer who, unable to provide affordable medicine, forced her to watch helplessly as her daughter passed away.

As for those drug dealers, those who sell genuine and cheap drugs, because this channel was shut down by 'Yukino', a large number of them were arrested by the police.

A large group of patients, along with their families, tearfully saw off the drug dealers; some even attempted to assault the police.

'The good outweighs the bad in this smuggling.'

Legal principles, human sentiment, a bitter smile.

"There's nothing we can do. The medicine is genuine, but it's smuggled..."

'It would be great if there were more smuggling operations like this.'

'This is supposed to be a hero? His sister's smuggling wasn't entirely for the patients; she was also smuggling antiques and stuff.'

'Heh, smuggling drugs on the side, huh? Wanting to get caught and then have everyone pity you?'

'Seriously, wouldn't it be better to use that money from smuggling antiques to buy more medicine?'

"To be fair, without moral blackmail, you sell what you want to sell. It's wrong to act like a prostitute and then try to maintain a virtuous image."

'This kind of person should be sentenced, severely sentenced!'

'Yukino Yukinoshita is a complete disaster! How many people have you indirectly caused to die because of your sister?!'

'Yes, at most your sister will go to jail, but they'll pay with their lives!'

'If you want to be a hero, can't you just turn a blind eye to some things?'

'Maybe he'll get a promotion in a couple of days? He's solved a major case!'

"I gamble, collect protection money, and take high school girls clubbing, but I think I'm better than her as a cop."

"No, no, they're not selling medicine, it's definitely not medicine..." Yukino stammered, "I have evidence, I have evidence..."

"Evidence? What evidence? Do you even think that evidence is still there?" Inspector Qiu looked at Yukino Yukinoshita with pity: "You can't fight them. Go find Mr. Luo now and seek protection. Go overseas and never come back. As for your sister's matter, if you talk to Mr. Luo properly, see if you can find someone to get her plastic surgery and replace her, then you can run away together."

“Run? What did I do wrong? Why did I run?” Yukino murmured. “I thought about helping my sister, I thought about helping Yuihama, but wasn’t everything I did against the rules? I had official documents for responding to the police call, I had an arrest warrant for making the arrest, and I asked for a reconsideration, not for release. I want to ask, what exactly did I do wrong?”

“Sigh… I know it’s not your fault,” Inspector Qiu said in a low voice, “but what can we do in this country? You have a press conference to attend later.”

Chapter 259 Slaughtering All Sides

Inspector Okayama understood Yukino's feelings very well.

He saw how upright she was, even going so far as to use her family's power to uphold justice and give everyone a fair chance.

However, this kind of person is not tactful enough; she is too stubborn.

After meeting Mr. Luo, she was a little better, but only a little. She would simply put the cases that needed to be put on hold and close them. She would no longer investigate the cases that she couldn't solve.

But this time, it involved her sister and her friend, so she had to dig deeper.

What has been the outcome of this investigation? She is now being questioned by the public.

Indeed, even now she hasn't made any mistakes.

She didn't ask Yang Nai about the specifics of the case because she was pursuing a criminal offense, not an economic one.

But do the masses care about that?

They instinctively felt that Yukino was protecting Haruno and Yui Yuigahama, even though she hadn't done anything and was just following the rules.

Yukino's idea was simply to get the truth; her starting point was to prevent the Shinomiya family from shifting the blame onto her sister.

Unfortunately, people saw Yang Naizhen smuggling and it caused an uproar.

As soon as such reports come out, they will be prejudiced and instinctively believe what they see.

Moreover, because they are unwilling to believe in the authorities, unwilling to believe in the existence of heroes and justice, they tend to think the worst of people.

Especially given Yukino's special status, she should have recused herself from this case, but he also knew that if she did, no one would handle it.

The Shinomiya family played a crucial role; from the perspective of the masses, what they did was illegal, but it was to save lives…

With this outcome, Yukino's actions were reasonable and legal, but not sensible!
