Chapter 900 'Matsumoto Kiyonaga' and Kuroda Hyōe
Matsumoto Kiyonaga knew that Kuroda Hyōe was also the head of the special task force, but................................
Lin Jiayou had no idea...
Although he didn't know it, he could deduce it...
Just like before, when a police officer came to tell him there was a meeting, Lin Jiayou immediately guessed that it was a special task force meeting attended by police officers from various regions.
The reason is also very simple——
Although Matsumoto Kiyonaga has now returned to the Metropolitan Police Department's First Investigative Division, however................................
This guy didn't continue to command the three departments of the First Investigation Division as before...
why?
Let's recall where we were before Matsumoto Kiyonaga came to the First Investigation Division.
In the Second Investigation Division.
Why was he sent to investigate Section Two? Was he demoted there...?
What was Matsumoto Kiyonaga doing before he went to investigate Section 2?
He served as the head of the First Investigation Division.......................
Why did Matsumoto Kiyonaga get promoted to section chief?
Hmm, with this calculation, we can figure it out................................
Because Kuroda Hyōe came down...............................
As an officer in the Japanese Public Security Bureau, Kuroda Hyōe was directly appointed as the supervising officer of the First Investigation Division, overseeing several departments, including the Third Division of the First Investigation Division...
The reason, naturally, is that Amuro Tooru's arrival requires someone to cooperate with him within reasonable and legal boundaries, without exposing him...
To meet this condition, the person cooperating cannot be of low status; they need to hold a certain position...
Secondly, this person's position requires them to frequently be exposed to dangerous situations....................................
If you calculate it this way, the position of supervising officer overseeing several rapist investigation units, including the three sections of the First Investigation Division—the same position Matsumoto Kiyonaga previously held—is a very suitable one....................................
To be honest, the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department would be a better fit, but that would be too conspicuous...
Furthermore, many of the organization's illegal activities are not carried out with the same fanfare as those of large yakuza organizations; instead, they are more often seemingly ordinary assassinations...
It looks just like a regular murder case.................................
If that's the case, then searching the area around Section 1, Department 3 is probably the most appropriate option...............................
Since Kuroda Hyōe has taken the position, Matsumoto Kiyōnaga has no choice but to leave.
Fortunately, considering Matsumoto Kiyoshi's many years of service, the Metropolitan Police Department didn't abruptly transfer him, but instead promoted him and gave him a raise...
Of course, doing it this way also appears more peaceful and less abrupt...................................
Therefore, the current First Investigation Division, Third Section, is under the leadership of Kuroda Hyōe, not Matsumoto Kiyōchō..............................
Even though Matsumoto Kiyonaga took a long detour and returned to the First Investigation Division as an officer, he was no longer the officer in charge of all three departments of the First Investigation Division...
Therefore, in principle, it would be more in line with regulations for Kuroda Hyōe to lead the task force at this meeting.....................................
To be honest, it's rather illogical that Matsumoto Kiyonaga would become the group leader...
but................................
Well, on the other hand, once something defies common sense occurs, it must eventually come into being logical...................................
Just like now, the task force has two team leaders....................................
The two team leaders are clearly illogical. After all, solving a case requires pooling all resources, working together as a unified force, and striking with a clenched fist—only then will the force of the investigation be truly powerful.
But now, with two team leaders, whose orders should we listen to?
If Matsumoto Kiyonaga and Kuroda Hyōe disagree, whose opinions should the subordinates listen to?
Isn't this deliberately creating division?
Well, if that's really what you think, then you're wrong...
Because one of them was on temporary assignment...
This person is........................
Kuroda Heibei!
That's right, it's not Matsumoto Kiyonaga, the officer in charge of the three departments of the First Investigation Division, but rather Kuroda Hyōe, who is currently the officer in charge of the three departments of the First Investigation Division.....................................
The reason is also very simple——
Although Matsumoto Kiyonaga was not the managing officer in charge of the three departments of the First Investigation Division, however...............................
He's still considered one of the Metropolitan Police Department's own people, after all!
Who is Kuroda Hyōe?
He's from the public security department...
How could we, as mid-level leaders in the Metropolitan Police Department, possibly have any real authority over Kuroda Hyōe?
Even if they could be ordered around, they wouldn't do it...
Everyone has their own area of expertise; Kuroda Hyōe had to handle both his work for the Japanese Public Security Bureau and help solve cases for his own side.
Even the donkeys in the production team aren't treated like this.....................................
So, Toshiro Odagiri came up with this idea—
He assigned both Kuroda Hyōe and Matsumoto Kiyōga, the two supervising officers, to the same task force..................................
However, although they were nominally the heads of two special task forces, Matsumoto Kiyonaga was actually the one in charge of everything...
Kuroda Hyōe was brought in for legal reasons; Matsumoto Kiyōga was brought in because Kuroda Hyōe wasn't doing any work, so they had to add another person...
Why choose Matsumoto Kiyonaga?
It's because Matsumoto Kiyonaga previously held that position, and no one knew his subordinates better than him...
Furthermore, given Matsumoto Kiyonaga's significant contribution last time, Odagiri Toshiro, adhering to the principle that "talented individuals should not be wasted," encouraged Matsumoto Kiyonaga to take on even more responsibilities...
Well, all of this was pretty much what Lin Jiayou and Gin had predicted beforehand............................................
It now appears that the calculations were basically correct.............................................
"Manager Matsumoto! Manager Kuroda!"
As Matsumoto Kiyonaga and Kuroda Hyōe walked towards the conference room, the voice of a certain chubby orange-haired man came from over there...............................
The two turned their heads slightly and saw Inspector Megure, the head of the Third Division of the First Investigation Division, leading his three henchmen—Wataru Takagi, Miwako Sato, and Ninzaburo Shiratori—walking towards them...
Among them, Inspector Megure was holding a document, which appeared to be the case file.................................
"Is everyone here...?"
'Matsumoto Kiyonaga' spoke first, asking Inspector Megure a question...............................
After asking the question, he glanced discreetly at Kuroda Hyōe beside him.
This time, their eyes met perfectly in Kuroda Hyoue's only eye...
hehe............................
Kuroda Hyōe smiled coldly to himself.
This Matsumoto Kiyonaga seems to be quite pragmatic..........................
Knowing full well that I was just there to lend my name, he still preemptively struck, as if afraid I would steal his command..................................
"Well, everyone should be here..............................."
Inspector Megure's case-solving skills aren't great, but he's been a police inspector for so many years, so he still has basic vigilance...
He hesitated for a moment, but still chose to reply to Matsumoto Kiyonaga.
This person was both his former superior and now also the managing officer of the First Investigation Division, except that he no longer managed any of the three departments...
It's impossible for me to specifically create a situation where I have to read Kuroda Hyōe's expression and then give him a reply..........................
This makes me look so snobbish...............................
After Inspector Megure finished speaking, he immediately gestured for Matsumoto Kiyonaga and Kuroda Hyōe to proceed, leading them to the conference room........................
