"Ah, what's going on, Shiratori Police Department? The information is not very good this time." Miwako Sato teased, "By the way, we should call the Shiratori Police Department now."
Rensaburo Shiratori smiled bitterly and scratched his hair, "My news was from last night. Something may have happened."
"So, why did I become the department head? In this case, what will the Megure Police Department do? Isn't he just suspended for a period of time?" Shizuo Komemon frowned slightly.
Hearing what he said, the other three looked at each other and were also a little worried.
"I'm going to inquire, please wait a moment." Shiratori Rensaburo left immediately.
He came back not long after, his face looked a little strange, but in any case he was still very happy.
"What's going on?" Miwako Sato urged.
Shiratori Rensaburo couldn't help but laugh and said: "The Megure Police Department has applied for an extension of the suspension period. He will not be able to come to work for at least a year, so the position of the department chief cannot remain vacant."
"What's the reason?" Shizuo Komemon asked.
"It's said that my wife is pregnant..."
"!!!"
"???"
"Huh? Are you sure?"
Shiratori Rensaburo nodded, "Of course I'm sure, the Megure Police Department is here today. It's in Director Odagiri's office right now. I think he'll be here later."
"It's a good thing, it seems that the Megure Police Department was suspended a little late, otherwise the children would have gone to elementary school." Shizuo Komemon joked.
"Maybe he's in high school. After all, Megure Police Department is older than Detective Mori, and Xiaolan is already in high school." Sato Miwako also joked.
As she spoke, she stretched and said, "There's really a lot of good news today, and I feel full of energy again."
"Counsellor Uno wouldn't think so." Shizuo Komemon tilted his head slightly and said.
But I say that, but if I think about it carefully, the past few days have been a bit different, with promotions and salary increases...
It's just that I didn't originally want this...
Perhaps this is in line with the saying: For those who have, double will be given to them to make them redundant; for those who do not have, even what they have will be taken away from them.
"By the way, being the department head will increase your salary, right?" Shizuo Komemon came back to his senses and asked.
"It's going up, it's going up, but don't expect too much." Miwako Sato heard this and couldn't laugh or cry.
The four of them did not wait for the Megure Police Department, but first waited for the case assigned by the Kuroda manager. They could only seize the time to deal with it and come back.
Miwako Sato drove, Shizuo Furumimon sat in the passenger seat, and Rensaburo Shiratori and Wataru Takagi sat in the back seat.
"Why are the Shiratori Police Department here too? Aren't you waiting for the Police Department at the Metropolitan Police Department?" Miwako Sato asked while driving.
"It's better for everyone to come together, and why not find a time to go to the police home for a formal visit." Shiratori Rensaburo replied.
"That's right." Sato Miwako nodded.
Takagi Wataru recalled Shiratori's intention to expose the criminal case before, and was very suspicious of the other party's words. He wanted to speak, but felt the murderous aura around him, but stopped.
"What are you thinking about? You're distracted again." Miwako Sato glanced at Shizuo Furumimon, the co-pilot.
"It's okay." Shizuo Komemon came to his senses and shook his head, mainly because Shiratori's statement just now made him couldn't help but think of a question.
The so-called distinction between public and private affairs actually means that those in the center of power will try their best to maintain their status and exclude latecomers.
In that case...how did the old man do it?
More than 20 years ago, he was just a local prosecutor. His official rank in the prosecutor's office was prosecutor, which was equivalent to the police rank in the police.
Even if the Gu Meimen family has some connections and status, the gap between them and the Prosecutor General is not small, and it becomes harder and harder to move up the ladder, not to mention that it only takes twenty years to complete these few steps...
"Let's have some snacks. Pastries made from cherry blossoms have a very special taste." Shizuo Komemon casually opened the snack box in his hand and distributed it to several people.
"Speaking of which, I asked at the front desk when I came here. No box was delivered today. Chief Gumeimen, what are you..." Shiratori Rensaburo raised his eyebrows slightly.
"I got it directly from Ayako." Shizuo Komemon didn't shy away from it, but he didn't explain much, "It's better not to call me department head, it's weird.
And you should know that I won’t take care of things, the work still needs to be done by you, the Shiratori Police Department.”
Shiratori Rensaburo smiled slightly, "Hey, I expected this. Anyway, I was doing the work of the department head before, so it doesn't make any difference.
And I thought about it, this time I was promoted to the police department in advance, probably because of the Gumeimen Police Department."
"Why is this?" Takagi Wataru swallowed the food in his mouth and asked innocently.
Shiratori Rensaburo said casually: "Probably with one more person who has been promoted due to merit, Gumeimen's crimes will be less eye-catching. I don't know what the specific thinking is."
A few people chatted and soon arrived at the crime scene - the golf driving range.
As expected, all three of Maoli's family were there.
"Detective Mori is here, you are lucky." Shizuo Furumon whispered to Miwako Sato.
"Seriously, I want to give it a try this time. Is the Mori elimination method really that magical?" Miwako Sato couldn't help but ask.
"You can try it."
Sato Miwako was in charge of the on-site investigation mission, Takagi Wataru was responsible for collecting eyewitness statements, and Furumimon Shizuo chatted with Shiratori Rensaburo.
"How was the last report?"
Shiratori Rensaburo shrugged, "The idea is very good, keep your opinions open, accept them humbly, actively improve, wait where you are, hold on firmly, file from superiors, wait for notification, obtain understanding, thank you for your cooperation."
"..." Shizuo Komemon was speechless, "Have you been crazy recently? Or maybe you have too much resentment."
Shiratori Rensaburo rubbed his somewhat red eyes and moved his creaking lumbar and cervical vertebrae.
"I also want to calm down, but I have worked hard for so long, reading various files every day, studying various criminology, and spending a lot of time on this...
The result was a perfunctory reply, and I really doubt that except for Manager Kuroda, no one above me had even opened my report."
"I can't give you any comfort in this kind of thing. After all, you know those twists and turns better than I do."
Shizuo Komemon was lying on a folding chair on the golf course, holding his head and watching other people busy.
"Yeah, I can think of almost all the reasons why they don't take it seriously, but I'm still very disappointed that no one who dares to take the responsibility has come forward." Shiratori Rensaburo sighed.
"Then do you want to continue?" Shizuo Komemon was not mainly referring to scientific crime-solving methods, but electronic files.
"Of course, otherwise, wouldn't I join the Metropolitan Police just to become a member of the bureaucracy?"
"come on."
Regarding Shiratori Rensaburo's ambition, Komemon Shizuo gave verbal support.
Ten minutes later, Sato Miwako came over with the summarized information...
