Chapter 717 Deliberately Cover Up (Seeking Monthly Pass)
That night, in the office of the Takahara agency, Colonel Harukyo Masara was reporting to Kyosa Yuki on the investigation of the shooting that occurred today.
Masara Haruka himself is also an experienced agent. His business ability is quite outstanding. The investigation of the shooting scene is almost the same as Eguchi Ryuso's judgment.
"General, from the current situation, Kitaoka Ryoko secretly concealed the wanted criminal Jiro Hirayama. His intention was very interesting. Judging from some traces on her body, she was taken to this house and was shot. The murderer's intention was very obvious, which was to make people think that all this was done by Jiro Hirayama. So I judged that the main cause of this matter was Kitaoka Ryoko, and the target the murderer was also Kitaoka Ryoko."
After listening to Masaro Haruki's narration, Kagesa Yuki nodded and said, "So who do you think wants to get rid of Kitaoka Ryoko?"
"This requires finding the source from Kitaoka Ryoko!" Masara Haruka smiled slightly and replied softly, "We have investigated Kitaoka Ryoko's itinerary today. Early this morning, she went to the French Concession to collect the bodies of the murdered agent. Not long after she came back, she left the door. We asked the guards of the agency that she left with her subordinate Iwai Nosuke. After some investigation, we found out that they had gone to the Mulan Club."
"Makuran Club?" Kagesa Yuki asked strangely.
The Mulan Club is the most famous cultural club in Shanghai and also a gathering place for literati, scholars and artists. The sponsor is Fujiwara Tomohito, the president of Fujiwara Club. Kagesa Yuki has been there several times before, but it is just a genius. Later, because of busy official business, I never went there again.
"Yes, we have asked some people in the Muran Club Institute. They said that Kitaoka Ryoko and Fujiwara Tomohito, the president of Fujiwara, met and left shortly afterwards. No one had seen Kitaoka Ryoko again until the shooting happened. That is to say, Kitaoka Ryoko was attacked after leaving the Muran Club Institute, and was immediately taken to the safe house where Jiro Hirayama was detained, and was shot together."
This actually involves Tomohito Fujiwara, Kagesa Yuki couldn't help but be very interested. Kagesa Yuki has always maintained a high level of attention and has been releasing friendly information. At present, everything is developing in a positive direction.
Kagesa Yuki asked, "Can you know why Kitaoka Ryoko went to find Fujiwara Tomohito? What is the content of their conversation?"
Haruka Masara was stunned, shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, and said helplessly: "I don't know why Kitanoka Ryoko went to meet Fujiwara Tomohito. The conversation between them was separate, and no one heard the content of the conversation.
Now all the people around Kitaoka Ryoko were killed in this shooting, only the one Yabe Hitoka survived, but his status was too low and he didn't know after asking. I asked carefully for a long time, but I couldn't find any valuable situation. There was also one Iwai Nosuke who was not seen and has not appeared yet, so we have no way to check it out.
As for the specific content of the conversation, we dare not ask Fujiwara Tomohito, and we still have to trouble you with this."
Haruki Masara was right. With Fujiwara Tomohito's current status, no one of them, the intelligence agents, dared to come to ask in person. Even if Kagesa Yuki comes forward, he should pay attention to the way and attitude of speaking.
When Kagesa Yuki heard this, he shook his head and said, "Did you let me ask in person? Isn't this obvious doubt about him? Besides, in the base camp, the two factions of Central China and North China are fighting fiercely. I just need support from all sides, especially Fujiwara Tomohito has a huge influence in Shanghai. It's too late to comfort him, so how can I get into evil with him? At that time, it's not a cheap old fox of Tuhara!"
Masara Haruka knew this, so he had to nod and said, "It is precisely because of this that I am very embarrassed about the subsequent investigation work. According to my judgment, Kitaoka Ryoko's death has a lot to do with this meeting of Tomohito Fujiwara. We investigated a detail. According to the literati of the Mulan Society, Kitaoka Ryoko usually wears kimonos when he goes to Mulan Society and stays for a long time. This time he was wearing a military uniform. He only talked to Tomohito Fujiwara for a short time and left quickly. His purpose is very obvious. There should be something very important to meet Tomohito Fujiwara. After that, she had an accident. If she couldn't know what they were talking about, it would be difficult for me to make a judgment."
Speaking of this, Masara Harui hesitated for a moment and said again: "General, as far as I know, Jiro Hirayama assassinated because his brother Tokumoto was assassinated, he assassinated Shirakawa Hidee, the branch president of Fujiwara Company. Then he sneaked into Shanghai to assassinate Tomohito Fujiwara. The intention was very obvious. He believed that his brother was killed by Fujiwara Company. If we look at it this way, Fujiwara Company was suspected of assassinating the local garrison commander. And Kitaoka Ryoko hid Jiro Hirayama. Will he want to use this to blackmail or threaten Tomohito Fujiwara, but he was instead..."
"Fujiwara Tomohito must not be involved in this case!" Kagesa Yuki immediately interrupted Masara Haruki's words.
Everyone knows these things about Fujiwara Club. For the senior executives, these are open secrets. It is inevitable that conflicts of interest with some local forces are inevitable. It is said that for this matter, Fujiwara Tomohito specially communicated with Nakatsura Tada. Now everyone has decided to cover up the past. He cannot lift the lid up again, cause this big trouble, and offend the local interest groups in Shanghai for nothing. That would be too stupid.
At this time, Kagesa Yuki urgently needed the support of Fujiwara Tomohito. Even if this case is really related to Fujiwara Tomohito, he still has to cover it up for Fujiwara Tomohito. He must not be incompatible with the primary and secondary, because he loses the big picture.
He continued, "Didn't Kitaoka Ryoko still have an assistant that has not been found? The one named Iwai Nosuke will open a breakthrough from him!"
"General, Iwai Nosuke has no news yet. I am afraid I will never find this person again!"
"Why?"
"This person has been with Kitaoka Ryoko. Kitaoka Ryoko was arrested, how could I escape Iwai Nosuke.
More importantly, this safe house is arranged very hidden, and only Kitaoka Ryoko's subordinates know that from the time Kitaoka Ryoko left the Muran Club Court to the time when the shooting occurred, the interval was very short. After Kitaoka Ryoko was arrested, he was sent to the safe house immediately. The action was very coherent, and there was no time to ask about torture in the middle. In other words, the murderer had known the location of the safe house before. Will Kitaoka Ryoko's subordinates have an insider?
Also, we found that we had checked the entire safe house, and there was no blood in other places. In other words, the first scene of shooting them in the living room. Except for Kitaoka Ryoko, the other three agents were killed after being subdued and were killed in the living room, and they were shot at close range. I guess they had lost their ability to move when they were killed.
These people are trained agents, and at least they should have a process of fighting back and resisting. However, except for the four warheads, no warheads or gun holes were found on the scene. In other words, they did not even have the chance to draw a gun. It is not easy to do this. There is a great possibility that the person who attacked them was the people they were familiar with. They were subdued without any defense."
"You mean Iwai Nosuke is an insider?" Kagesa Yuki's eyes narrowed.
"It's very likely, but I need to find Iwai Nosuke to confirm it, but I guess he's unlikely to appear again. He either was killed together when Kitaoka Ryoko was attacked, or he was the murderer who killed Kitaoka Ryoko and the other three agents. He hasn't shown up for such a long time and is it likely that he has escaped now. As for the motive?"
Speaking of this, Masara Haruki looked at Kyosa Yuki and continued, "Twenty-hundred thousand yen, but a huge sum of irresistible!"
The problem turned back to Fujiwara Club. When Kagesa Yuki heard Masara Haruki's words, he walked back and forth in the room for a few minutes, pondered for a long time, and finally said, "All insiders are dead, only Jiro Hirayama and Nosuke Iwai are missing. We cannot involve Tomohito Fujiwara. It is difficult to investigate now, but we have snatched the case from the Special High School. We can't just drag it on like this. We always have to give an explanation."
Mr. Qingqing suggested: "Otherwise, I would just push it to the Chinese agents, and I wouldn't be able to confront anyone anyway."
Kagesa Yuki waved his hands repeatedly: "It's not appropriate, there are too many loopholes and flaws to deal with it like that. Kitaoka Ryoko is Takahara's favorite student. He will definitely investigate it in detail after he comes back. If he finds that it is us deliberately covering it up, he might think it was our move, and he will force this old guy to get out of the way, and no one can get out of the way!"
"Then let's change the solution!" Haruki Masara thought for a while, stepped forward and whispered, "Wait for a few days first. If Iwai Nosuke does not appear again, then Hirayama Jiro shot Kitaoka Ryoko and others and then escaped to make a decision.
After all, except Jiro Hirayama, everyone else was dead at the scene. We also have evidence of Hirabe Hirayama, which can prove that Kitaoka Ryoko took Hirayama Jiro. She assisted the fugitives who assassinated Tomohiro Fujiwara to avoid the search and provide shelter. This is a problem in itself. When Tuhara comes back, let him explain to Tomohiro Fujiwara."
"Okay!" Kagesa Yuki applauded. He also thought that the solution was very good. He followed the situation and threw the conflict to Keiji Tuhara easily. He would add fuel to it and profit from it. There would be more room for operation.
Kagesa Yuki said again and said, "You must take good care of Hirabe Hitoshi. He is the witness to prove that Kitaoka Ryoko took in Hirayama Jiro. Don't let him contact anyone. There are still many old members of Tuhara's North China in the agency, so don't have any troubles."
"Hi Yi!"
