Just the same night.

Office No. A5, 17th Floor, Accounting and Inspection Service Building, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.

Investigator Yuuki was still working at her desk at this time. Previously, she was in pain after being shot in the abdomen by Eto with a shotgun at the Kyoto Castle Tower, but she was flipping through thick files in the office. Previously, she was at the station

In a store, I met Beiyuan secretly and told her about her current situation.

Yuki is now transferred to the Second Bureau of the Accounting Inspection Service.

Now, the Second Bureau is organizing forces to secretly investigate whether the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau assisted the Shinjuku City Hall in transferring land at a low price. Yuuki is also being ordered to investigate.

The truth is often such amazing coincidences.

The mantis stalks the cicada, but the sparrow follows behind.

At this moment, Urakawa, the investigator of the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau who is investigating Kitahara, they don't know yet, but they have been targeted by the Accounting Inspection Agency.

However, in the end, is he a cicada? A praying mantis? Or a sparrow? Yuuki is not sure about this question. The Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau must also belong to the sphere of influence of a certain big shot. The Accounting Inspection Bureau's investigation here will inevitably encounter a strong counterattack. And

, the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau also has experts who are good at auditing.

It is definitely not easy for the Accounting Inspection Service to deal with the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau.

At that time, as the counterattack of the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau begins, the investigators of the Accounting Inspection Service will inevitably be backlashed. If a big shot from the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau wins in the end, how many investigators will be punished or even leave their jobs?

Something unpredictable.

It is always the chess pieces that are sacrificed in the chess game.

At this time, Yuuki thought of what Kitahara said again.

Do you want to overturn the chess game?

This young man speaks so arrogantly.

The coffee on the table was slightly steaming, rising slowly under the dim light of the table lamp. The desk was piled with case files, like rising hills, surrounding this female investigator with a somewhat charming temperament.

Get up. These case files, which are as continuous as mountains, are like a maze at this moment, trapping the investigator's thoughts.

Yuki has the same confusion as Kitahara.

That is, she cannot see what this larger chess game is.

Who is behind the scenes manipulating the Accounting Inspection Bureau to investigate the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau? Yuki doesn’t know. The only thing that can be inferred is that the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau must have some information that is so valuable that the big shots are willing to risk it.

Risk starts a war.

Of course Yuki is not willing to be a pawn.

The problem is, if you want to overturn the chess board, you must find out who is the player playing chess now.

To find out the answer to this question, the solution is to deduce from the current case investigation who can benefit from it and who can suffer from it. This way we can find out which two big figures are criticizing each other.

However, this is easier said than done.

It is extremely difficult to sort out a clear pattern of interests from a mess of case file materials. Otherwise, everyone is a genius at power struggle.

Yuuki looked at the file in front of him. It was a brief introduction to the past land transfers in Shinjuku City, including the transfer object, transfer price, land area, and location of the complex. However, the Accounting Inspection Office is not a real estate expert and only relies on this information.

, where can we find abnormal traces of land transfer? What's more, Yuki also believes that the Tokyo Asset Supervision Bureau will not directly use clumsy and fraudulent methods of transferring land at low prices, but will definitely use more sophisticated and complicated methods.

Land assets are an important asset for councils.

Due to the high price of land, once it is discovered that the city hall has illegally transferred land at a low price and has a relationship with enterprises to convey interests, then this high land price can criminalize almost anyone involved.

How to detect abnormal traces of land transfer?

Yuki had no clue, she could only think desperately.

At this time, her brain was running rapidly.

It's like a running person, constantly sprinting back and forth to each fork in an overlapping maze, trying to find the correct exit in the shortest possible time.

Finding the right route is easier said than done.

At this moment, suddenly, Yuuki had a flash of inspiration.

Anyway, since there are no abnormal traces of land transactions, it might as well find a case that seems to be the least likely to be fraudulent. In other words, Yuuki wants to see what the highest price has been for the transfer of municipal land in Shinjuku City over the years. These highest prices

The land was transferred to whom.

Reverse thinking suddenly gave Yuki inspiration.

According to the report from the Second Bureau, the Shinjuku City Hall has engaged in serious illegal transfer of land at a low price, but now the investigators gathered from all the bureaus cannot find a similar normal transaction at a low price.

Could it be that the dirty tricks are hiding in the land that was transferred at a high price?

Precisely because these lands were transferred at a high price, it is not easy to arouse suspicion.

After the land is transferred, the city hall may return part of the land price received to the enterprise through some channel.

In this way, land transactions are high in name only but low in reality.

Thinking of this, Yuki became excited. She immediately used the computer to filter out the companies that had bid for land in Shinjuku District with the highest land unit price in the past five years.

She clicked on the keyboard.

The computer screen flashed and quickly displayed the investigator's results.

The form lists the name of the enterprise, comprehensive land parcel, area size, location, transaction time, land unit price, and total amount.

The moment the form slid out, neat Chinese characters appeared.

An incredible result appeared in the column of company name.

In the past five years, the company that has won the highest land unit price has actually been the same company.

Yuki couldn't believe it, so he rubbed his eyes again, but the result in front of him did not change.

Displayed in the company name column is the name of a hotel company——

General Hotel.

Hearing this name, Yuki felt a little familiar. Shogun Hotel? Then, she seemed to vaguely remember that there had been news reports about this hotel before. It seemed that this hotel had a land infringement dispute with a goalkeeper training base.

It was said that the hotel's load-bearing pillars were built on the land of the croquet court. So the croquet team hired a lawyer to request the removal of the General Hotel's load-bearing pillars. At that time, this was still a hotly debated topic.

However - why is this hotel bidding for the land in Shinjuku District at the highest price for five consecutive years?

This is very abnormal.

Yuuki is a bit incomprehensible. Because the hotel industry in Japan is currently in a period of decline. High labor cost services that focus on Eastern etiquette are being impacted by the standardized Western hotel industry. For many Japanese hotel companies, today's

Not easy.

But why is it such a hotel company?

Yuki immediately inquired about the chairman of the hotel group.

The name of the chairman is exactly——
Chapter completed!
