It was related to the safety of His Majesty the Emperor, and the Prime Minister was personally supervising the operation. All relevant personnel in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department put aside their work and went all out to investigate whether they had entered Tokyo in the past half month or half a month ago. For all those who have been to China, although the work is heavy, there is strength in numbers.
In the evening of that day, the preliminary investigation results came out.
A total of more than a hundred suspicious persons were identified. The information of these suspicious persons was made into documents and quickly submitted to the desk of Mouri Kogoro. Mouri Kogoro is the Intelligence Section of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, that is, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. The section chief is a senior police officer who is highly respected in the industry. He has a keen professional sense of smell and first-class case-handling ability.
After analysis, Kogoro Mouri extracted seven of the more than 100 documents, and then took these seven documents directly to the office of Director Masao Kameda. Coincidentally, when Kogoro Mouri arrived, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Governor Ishihara Inotaro happened to be in Kameda Masao's office asking about the progress of the case.
Seeing Mouri Kogoro come in with a piece of information, Kameda Masao's eyes immediately lit up and asked: "Moori-kun, have you gained anything from the investigation?"
"Hai." Mouri Kogoro gave a heavy pause, then put the folder in his hand on Kameda Masao's desk, and continued, "After an afternoon of full investigation, our Intelligence Section has locked in more than a hundred suspicious targets. , and after my analysis and comparison, I found that these seven people are the most suspicious!"
"Really?" Before Kameda Masao could reach out his hand, Ishihara Inotarō on the side had already picked up the folder first, then opened the information inside, and read aloud while reading, "Nishimura Kojiro? Nagata Jiro? Matsushima Rai Raiko? Matsushima Han? Asahina Tatsu? Asahina Hun? Kikudiya? Is there anything wrong with these seven people?"
"Hai." Mouri Kogoro paused and said, "In the records of the Abe Maru and the Port of Tokyo, the identity information of these people is clearly registered as merchants. This means that they hold trade certificates issued by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. However, after we checked the merchant registration information of Nagata Town, we did not find the registration information of these seven merchants."
"What is this?" Ishihara Inotaro frowned and said, "This may also be the traders deliberately not reporting their information to the relevant departments in order to evade taxes. This does not explain anything."
"Hai." Maori Kogoro paused and said, "It is indeed possible for a businessman to do this, but it is very rare for five businessmen from the same place to all be like this."
"Soga." Kameda Masao said excitedly, "In other words, the identities of these seven people are forged!"
"Hai!" Mouri Kogoro paused again and continued, "What's more important is that these seven traders are still sailing from the Abe Maru in Jiangyin Port. Jiangyin Fortress is not far from Shanghai, both in terms of time and Judging from the location, it is very possible that these seven people are pretended to be Xu Rui and his subordinate Lang Ya."
"Baga, what are you waiting for?" Kameda Masao immediately shouted, "Hurry up and notify the security department, and immediately dispatch the first security brigade and the second security brigade to carry out carpet-like raids on hotels and hostels in various districts of Tokyo. During the investigation, we have to dig deep into the ground to find these seven suspicious elements."
"Hai, the entire security department has been dispatched." Mouri Kogoro paused and then said, "But Mr. Director, please forgive me for speaking bluntly, but I am afraid that the security department's large-scale investigation will not yield any results."
Kameda Masao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked: "Why won't there be any results?"
"Because Tokyo is too big and there are too many foreigners, so we can't investigate them at all." Kogoro Mori shook his head and continued, "What's more, there are a large number of Chinese overseas Chinese in Tokyo. After the Sino-Japanese war broke out, these overseas Chinese They haven’t left Tokyo yet, so who can guarantee that there are no evil spies among them?”
Kameda Masao said: "Mouri-kun, are you saying that someone will pick them up?"
"Hai." Mouri Kogoro paused again and said, "The possibility is very high."
It must be admitted that Kogoro Mori's professional sensitivity is quite reliable.
Ishihara Inotarō frowned and said, "Is there nothing we can do against them?"
Kameda Masao couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. After a large-scale investigation, he finally identified seven suspicious targets, but in the end he found that these seven suspicious targets had merged into the vast sea of people in Tokyo and disappeared without a trace. What the fuck? What is the difference between knowing that there are seven spies sneaking into Tokyo
Mouri Kogoro hesitated and said: "Your Excellency, the Director of the Department, and Your Excellency, the Governor, actually..."
Ishihara Inotaro was very dissatisfied with Mouri Kogoro's hesitant behavior, and said: "Mouri-kun, say what you have to say directly. Don't be so hesitant and make people angry."
"Hai." Mouri Kogoro paused and said, "Actually, it is not difficult to find these seven suspicious targets, because the reason why they were able to successfully board the Abe Maru from Jiangyin Fortress was because of a key figure who played a key role. The key person in the role is the Osaka-born student who just entered Army University, Ono Roku!"
…
Ono Shiliu frowned and walked out of the Army University gate.
After all, the Army University trains senior officers of the Army, so the academic requirements are more stringent, but the daily management is looser than the Army Academy. Except for class time, students are not prohibited from going out in their spare time, but they must report to the instructor of the class when going out. Reporting, the gatekeeper must also register.
After registering, Ono Shiliu walked out of the Mainland University campus somewhat unhappy.
As soon as Ono Shiliu looked up, he saw a ronin on wooden shoes waving to him. He didn't recognize him. He had no impression of this ronin at all, but this did not prevent Ono Shiliu from making a basic judgment, because this ronin passed the school. The reason why the guard is looking for him is the code word for Lang Ya to look for him: Tsurumi's uncle from his hometown is here!
The Ono 16 family is in Yodogawa Ward, Osaka City, not in Tsurumi Ward.
Therefore, if someone is really coming from my hometown, they will definitely say that someone is coming from my hometown in Yodogawa.
Walking up to the ronin somewhat unhappy, Xiaoye Shiliu frowned and asked, "Are you looking for me?"
"No, there is someone else who is looking for you." After Ronin finished speaking, he pointed to a custom shop diagonally across the street, an indescribable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then continued, "He is waiting for you in Room A, No. 3."
Although the boss was unwilling, Ono Shiliu could only walk to the custom museum obediently.
As for the ronin, after watching Ono Shiliu enter the custom hall, he turned around and walked into the alley next to him.
Deep in the alley, there is a pretty woman wearing a kimono. If Ono Shiroku follows the alley, he will find that this woman in a kimono is Xiao Taohong, whose pseudonym is Matsushima Raiko.
"Girl, that brat has already entered the custom hall." Ronin walked up to Xiao Taohong with a smile, reached out to touch Xiao Taohong's chin, and said with a smile, "Now it's time to fulfill your promise. ,hey-hey."
Little Taohong dodged the ronin's fur claws without leaving a trace, and then flipped her wrist, and there was a sharp dagger in the palm of her hand. The ronin's eyes froze, and when he was about to reach out to grab the knife, it was already too late. He saw a flash of cold light, and the dagger was in his hand. Then it penetrated into Ronin's heart with a squeaking sound, and Xiao Taohong even twisted it twice.
Ronin's face immediately showed a look of intense pain. The severe pain made it impossible for him to breathe or call for help. Less than five seconds later, Ronin fell heavily to the ground, twitched slightly twice, and then stopped moving. , Xiao Taohong reached out and touched the side of Ronin's neck to make sure that the man was dead, then she stood up and walked away.
…
As soon as Xiao Taohong left, two cars came speeding down the street, and then stopped suddenly at the gate of Army University with a screeching sound. The military cadets who were coming in and out of the gate stopped one after another and looked over here. , when the car door opened, Kameda Masao and Mouri Kogoro got out of the car one after another and went straight to the guard room.
"We are from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. We are handling a major case. Please cooperate!" Mouri Kogoro showed his ID. After the school guard saw it, he quickly opened the door and let him go. Moori Kogoro and Kameda Masao hurried back. After getting into the car, two cars burst into the Army University campus with a bang.
However, Kameda Masao and Mouri Kogoro were still half a step late.
When they found Ono Roku's class, they were told that less than fifteen minutes ago, Ono Roku was called away by his old uncle who came from his hometown in Osaka to visit him. Kameda Masao and Mouri Kogoro realized that Oops, this is too coincidental. Xiao Yeliu’s old uncle came to visit him at this time
At that moment, Kameda Masao and Mouri Kogoro hurriedly chased him out of the school gate.
Ono Roku was not seen outside the school gate. Kameda Masao gave up, but Mouri Kogoro did not give up. He asked the guard just in case. As a result, the guard really noticed and told them that Ono Roku had left the school gate. After that, I talked to a ronin in his forties for a few words, and then entered the customs hall diagonally opposite.
Kameda Masao and Mouri Kogoro were overjoyed and hurried into the custom museum.
The proprietress of the custom hall told the two of them that Ono Shiliu was at No. 3.
Kameda Masao and Mouri Kogoro came to No. 3 A again and knocked on the door gently, but there was no movement inside. At that moment, Mouri Kogoro asked the accompanying police officers to forcibly remove the wooden horse, only to find that Ono Shiroku was facing He was lying on the ground. The police turned him over, only to find that a knife had been inserted into his abdomen and he had already died.
The faces of Kameda Masao and Mouri Kogoro immediately darkened.
It's over, such an important clue was cut off like this!
Now, if we want to find Xu Rui and his six Wolf Fangs, we can only use a stupid method similar to finding a needle in a haystack. However, can we really find a needle in a haystack
