A rather Showa nickname.

But it was this nickname that made many police officers in the Metropolitan Police Department highly respect the Chief of Police Kitagawa Takaichiro, and even regarded him as a role model in life.

Three years ago, when Takaichiro Kitagawa found a suitable heart for his daughter and successfully completed a heart transplant operation, the Metropolitan Police Department even prepared a small celebration party for him.

All along, Yamazaki Masashi thought it was God's will. He couldn't bear to let an outstanding policeman like Kitagawa Takaichiro lose his family, so he found a suitable heart for him.

I didn’t expect that the source of the heart was actually the Kowloon Group!

Moreover, it was taken alive from a five-year-old "orphan" girl...

An uncomfortable and nauseous feeling instantly rose from Yamazaki Masashi's stomach. He suppressed the discomfort, covered his mouth, and closed the office door that he had just opened.

Although he does not yet know the authenticity of the "evidence" reported by the Asahi Shimbun.

But...

Although the Asahi Shimbun keeps saying that "it has not been investigated by criminal investigation and has not been confirmed", as one of the three major radio stations in Japan, he does not believe that the Asahi Shimbun would broadcast nationwide without confirming the authenticity of the video footage.

It is important to understand that this is no longer just a matter between the Asahi Shimbun and the Metropolitan Police Department.

The influential information listed on the screen included transactions between the Kowloon Group, senior officials of the Metropolitan Police Department, the Tokyo Central Bank, the Cabinet, and a series of officials and politicians.

A secret transaction and money laundering interest group based on the Kowloon Group and funded by the Tokyo Central Bank, with protection provided by senior officials of the Metropolitan Police Department, the cabinet and a series of politicians, was suddenly pulled out from under the water by the Asahi Shimbun.

This is a complete international scandal!

It is an act of slapping the Japanese government's reputation in the face by throwing it into the cesspool and stepping on it a hundred times over and over again!

Yamazaki Masashi didn't dare to think any further. Although he had been engaged in legal work for most of his career, as a veteran policeman, he could see at a glance the sufficiency of the evidence in front of him. Some of the chains of evidence had even formed a closed loop.

If the Asahi Shimbun throws out some decisive evidence, such as witnesses...

I have to say that sometimes, what you worry about really comes true.

Just after the video on the screen finished playing, Yumi Aso's beautiful face appeared in front of the audience again.

"So far, we have learned from frontline reporters that our unknown hero has rescued hundreds of artificially created 'orphans' from no less than twenty 'Paradise Welfare Homes' before handing over this information to my colleagues.

From the oldest being 15 to the youngest just learning to speak, due to their distrust of the Metropolitan Police Department and the government, they have been reluctant to hand these children over to the Metropolitan Police Department and have been forced to take care of these children's daily lives on their own.

Dear viewers, the reason why we at Asahi Shimbun risked great disapproval and even went so far as to expose our own country's scandal and make our country a laughing stock to the whole world by reporting this appalling event was not to attract attention or to gain any benefits.

Just like our unsung heroes, we hope to provide a place for these children to stay. We hope that these children can find their biological parents, return to their parents' arms and grow up healthy, instead of living in this world without dignity as someone's backup 'organ bank'.

If we can’t trust our government and the Metropolitan Police Department that protects us, who else can we trust! ? "

Yumi Aso's words were deafening, and were conveyed through the screen to everyone watching the live broadcast.

Honestly speaking, Asahi Shimbun is really playing big this time. If someone is standing backstage at the Asahi Shimbun's studio at this moment, they will definitely find that the ratings of Asahi Shimbun are actually climbing in a spiral.

In just less than three minutes, the ratings of Asahi Shimbun exceeded 40% and continued to rise!

What is this concept?

This means that at this moment in Japan, one out of every two televisions is broadcasting this special news from the Asahi Shimbun!

The number of online views is even more terrifying!

There is no doubt that this special news has caused an uproar among the people of Japan. All those who were watching the live broadcast were constantly calling on their relatives and friends to watch this special news, making it spread like a virus at lightning speed in just ten minutes.

However, just as more and more people turned on their televisions and computers, preparing to watch the Asahi Shimbun's further reports, they found that the pictures on their televisions turned into snow screens at the same time!

An expression of surprise appeared on the face of every Japanese citizen who was watching the Asahi Shimbun, but just a moment later, that surprise turned into extreme anger!

CNM, do you think we are fools?

Can we just pretend that nothing happened by cutting off the Asahi Shimbun signal?

This is not the way to cover one's ears and steal the bell, right? ?

.........cut.........

PS.1. Today I found a very interesting domestic animation, Starting with a Mountain, which is adapted from a comic. You can watch it on Penguin Video. According to the comments, it is probably about soul traveling, with a bandit leader starting the game and farming, but it is quite interesting, with some nonsensical plots. Anyway, I enjoyed watching it and plan to find a chance to read the comic.

PS.2. I'd like to ask for some votes by the way. Although I know I'm a failure, I always feel encouraged by having votes woooooooooo!

Chapter 4: Dirty Adults (k)

"Clang!!!"

"Konoya!

Those bastards from Asahi Shimbun!

What on earth do they want to do!?

Do you want to overthrow this country!?"

In a high-end apartment in Tokyo, Finance Minister Yuji Fukuyama, who had put down his cell phone, finally couldn't hold back his anger and overturned the coffee table in front of him.

The murderous look on his face scared the beautiful woman standing behind him so much that she didn't even dare to breathe.

This is the apartment that Fukuyama Yuji prepared for his mistress. The 51-year-old finance minister is still in the prime of his life and pays great attention to health preservation. Basically, every two or three days, he stays out all night using the excuse of "working overtime".

Honestly speaking, there is nothing strange about keeping mistresses. It is basically a common hobby of bigwigs in the political and business circles. Even if they are political enemies, few people will talk about each other's mistresses.

After all, in Japan, a country with a mistress culture and even a prevalent erotic industry, even if one reports one's political opponent on the grounds of keeping a mistress, it is difficult to pry any useful information from the opponent's mistress.

Even if this is told to the other party's wife, with the attitude of "Since I can't bring you down, it's ok to disgust you a little, right?", the wife rarely goes to the city government to make a scene.

Because there is a proverb in Japanese society, which goes, "What you give to your wife is milk, and what you give to others is urine." It is a very Ah Q mentality.

It is precisely because of this mentality that Japanese women, after discovering their husbands’ extramarital affairs, either divorce them or continue to accept their husbands’ money every month.

The most typical example is the wife of a former prime minister. After a weekly magazine revealed the news of his extramarital affair, the wife met with reporters and said in tears: "If it is true, it is because I did not take good care of him."

This morning, perhaps because he had exerted too much energy last night, the over 50-year-old Fukuyama Yuji relied on his high position and simply slept in for a while, enjoying his rare "vacation".

What made him a little annoyed was that while he was holding the beauty and dreaming sweet dreams, his secretary, who used to be quite reliable, was quite tactless and called him more than a dozen times in a row, as if she would not stop until he answered the phone.

Although he was very annoyed, the person who could become the Minister of Finance was definitely not a fool.

Realizing that there might be something important that had to be reported to him immediately, the sleepy-eyed Yuji Fukuyama answered the call from his secretary impatiently.

However, what made him even more annoyed was that his tactless secretary said to him right after answering the phone: "Oh no, Minister Fukuyama! Something big has happened!"

That flustered look made Fukuyama Yuji so angry that he wanted to change his secretary on the spot.

However, when he heard the secretary's report, and hurriedly got up from the bed and quickly switched to the Asahi Shimbun channel, an inexplicable chill suddenly rushed from his tailbone to the top of his head.

It's over, it's over!

This was the first thought that came to Fukuyama Yuji's mind after he saw the evidence released by Asahi Shimbun.

No, we can’t let Asahi Shimbun continue talking. We have to find a way to make them shut up first!

Immediately afterwards, the second thought popped into Fukuyama Yuji's mind.

The Asahi Shimbun is backed by the Suzuki Group, and even Fukuyama Yuji, the Minister of Finance, could not force the Asahi Shimbun to stop broadcasting.

It has to be said that this is the advantage of big chaebols in capitalist countries. The political activities of parliamentarians have always been inseparable from the support of the chaebols.

However, although there is no way to stop the Asahi Shimbun from broadcasting, Fukuyama Yuji has his own way.

The Asahi Shimbun's allegations against him have not been subject to judicial investigation, and for now he remains the finance minister, a powerful figure in the cabinet.

With just one harsh phone call, he completely cut off the Asahi Shimbun's broadcast signal.

Of course, he also knew that cutting off the Asahi Shimbun signal was just a helpless act of covering up one's own faults.

If they want to speak out, there are countless channels to use, whether through the official website or Twitter. He simply cannot stop the Asahi Shimbun from speaking out.

After all, even if he can cut off all signals in the country, will their father, the Americans, still tolerate him and cooperate with him, a bad official, to block the information?

Well, when I think about it this way, it doesn't seem impossible?

Okay, let’s get down to business.

For Yuji Fukuyama, cutting off the Asahi Shimbun's broadcasting signal was just a helpless move to delay time. He had to complete the turnaround in a very short time.

Fortunately, he still has two advantages now.

First, in addition to him, Asahi Shimbun also implicated senior officials of the Metropolitan Police Department and at least one-third of the cabinet ministers.

But don't underestimate this power. Once these people unite, they can easily destroy the world and turn right into wrong.

Second, the evidence cited by the Asahi Shimbun is evidence that has not been investigated by judicial authorities and only exists at the level of video materials and so-called "orphan survivors."

"Without investigation by judicial authorities" - just these few words provide a lot of room for mediation.

For safety reasons and also to conceal their purpose, they carefully raised the orphans who served as their "organ spares" before they were "activated".

After all, the physical health of those orphans is the continuation of their health. They don’t want to use defective products that have already expired when they need these "spare supplies".

So when those orphans were young, although they did not have the most delicacies to eat, their food, clothing, housing and transportation were all pretty well guaranteed. Even the teachers in the orphanage, for the sake of their "health", did not let them come into contact with cigarettes or even secondhand smoke.

But on the other hand, once these "spare parts" are "activated", they will never give these "orphans" a chance to turn over. Even if they just extract some "non-lethal organs", they will dispose of the "spare parts" afterwards and continue to cultivate new "spare parts".

So on the surface, those orphans were no different from the orphans in ordinary orphanages before they were "activated", and some even lived better.

It is also because of this that Yuji Fukuyama is not too worried that the orphans will become so-called witnesses, because to them, they are just a group of "ordinary orphans" who have no parents but live happily in the orphanage.

That's their advantage!

Next, as long as he can overturn the authenticity of the Asahi Shimbun's evidence and prove their defamation charge, he, Fukuyama Yuji, will still be the Minister of Finance!

A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Fukuyama Yuji's eyes. Without thinking too much, he immediately dialed the phone in his hand.

"It's me. I won't say any more. Find the source of the data leak as soon as possible. We must 'erase' those traces as quickly as possible, no matter how much it costs!"

As soon as the call was connected, Fukuyama Yuji heard the same sound of smashing something from the other end of the line.

A look of contempt flashed across his eyes, but he did not blame the other party or argue about right or wrong.

Because he is in a high position, he knows very well that there is no right or wrong in the adult world, only interests.

Once people have a status, they will desire more things.

Money, beauty, health, fame and all the things that were once out of reach.

Especially reputation, which can almost be called the ultimate desire of human beings. Once you have reputation, money and people will naturally come to you.

No matter how much money you have, it is still just money.

In order to protect his position and reputation, Fukuyama Yuji simply spoke quickly in a simple and clear tone.

Although investigating from the source is more or less a waste of time, it is the most effective way to erase related traces.

"I see!"

After a while, the person on the other end of the phone seemed to have finally adjusted his emotions. He just responded indifferently with a tone as if he was gritting his teeth, and then hurriedly hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Fukuyama Yuji did not show any dissatisfaction on his face.

Since he chose to cooperate with the other party, he had already prepared himself to fall into the abyss.

It's just that he wanted to extend this time indefinitely, or even bury it completely in the long river of history.

After hanging up the phone, Fukuyama Yuji did not stop at all, and did not even pay attention to the tea handed to him by his lover. Instead, he used the mobile phone in his hand to make one call after another. His calm appearance and decisive tone made it no exaggeration to say that he was a man worthy of being the Minister of Finance.

It's a pity that this calmness and decisiveness in killing are not used in the right way.

On the other side, after hanging up the phone with Fukuyama Yuji, Yoshitatsu, a believer who had just smashed a tea room in Ueno Ryuhei's house, seemed to have finally suppressed his anger. He turned to Ueno Ryuhei, who had been sitting on a cushion, as if thinking about something and letting him smash his own tea room, and spoke in a deep voice.

“President Ninth and Kurosaki Junlong look down on human trafficking, and we have always been the ones doing this business.

They didn't care at the beginning, and they certainly won't care now. What's more, compared to those orphans, the pollution problems and power-for-money transactions are enough to occupy their attention and make it impossible for them to extricate themselves.

Now, we can only rely on ourselves. Do you have any clues?"

As an old-school Yakuza, in the chaotic era at the end of the Showa period, when Ryushin the Ninth Generation and Kunryu Kurosaki founded Kowloon, they had the same purpose as the first generation of Vongola and Cobra of the Sanno Federation, that is, they were created to protect the weak.

Although as the organization grew stronger, Jiulong slowly changed from protecting the weak to plundering everything, killing, selling narcotics, selling violence, and selling pornography were common occurrences.

However, unlike the criminal gangs in Korea and Southeast Asia, Jiushi Longxin has always disdained to do things like trafficking women and children and digging out human organs.

As his die-hard fan, Kurosaki Junlong naturally has the same attitude.

But unfortunately, the current Kowloon is no longer the Kowloon that belongs to him alone.

As Kowloon's power continued to grow, the conflict between the old and young factions within the group became more intense.

Although Jiushi Longxin was disgusted with some of Shanxin Yoshiryu's actions, he was unable and even powerless to stop anything. As a result, his old friend Ueno Ryuhei, who founded Jiulong with him, also gradually turned to Shanxin Yoshiryu's faction.
