Chapter 621 - The Metropolitan Police Department’s operation

Chapter 621: The Metropolitan Police Department’s operation

Miyazaki Ronjin was lying on the hospital bed and hardly slept all night. He had asked Kimura Akino to call Xiao Luo several times, yet failed to reach him. His feeling of uneasiness got worse, and after last night’s incident with the genetically modified monster, he realized that some sort of organization in Ri nation might be conducting secret experiments on the missing Hua Nation people.

But which organization was behind all of this?

How many political officials were involved?

He could imagine that it was most likely a very large and influential organization. As a police officer, did he have the clout to go up against such an organization on account of the missing Hua Nation people? He also wondered whether there any police officers complicit in this whole affair.

BOOM!

Suddenly, the room door flew open. Kimura Akino, who had gone out to get breakfast, rushed in quickly, and shouted: “Not good, not good! Xiao Han-kun is a wanted person! The Metropolitan Police Department has listed him as an A-tier wanted person!”

What?

Miyazaki Ronjin, who initially felt a little sleepy, got up from his bed immediately when he heard this. He grabbed Kimura Akino’s phone to take a look and realized that the Metropolitan Police Department had indeed listed Xiao Han as a wanted man.

“Damn it, just what in the world is going on here?”

Without another word, he ignored the pain and bolted from the hospital ward in his patient gown.

“Miyazaki-san, what are you doing?” Kimura Akino called after him.

“Going back to the Metropolitan Police Department to find out what is going on,” Miyazaki Ronjin said without turning his head around.

“Wait for me.”

Kimura Akino left the breakfast behind and followed him immediately.

…

Miyazaki Ronjin, still in his patient gown and flip-flops, attracted much attention when he arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department. Many of the other policemen started to giggle. Miyazaki Ronjin couldn’t care less about it as he headed directly toward the Chief’s office room. Without even knocking on the door, he pushed the door open and entered.

The room was empty. He went out, caught a policeman who walked past, and asked: “Where’s Chief?”

Miyazaki Ronjin’s angry stare frightened the policeman. Quaking, he answered, “In… In the meeting room. He called for an emergency meeting…”

Miyazaki Ronjin let him go, and though he was still panting, headed straight for the meeting room. The pain in his body got worse from the strenuous activity and beads of sweat started appearing on his forehead. He just couldn’t seem to figure out why Xiao Luo had become a wanted person. Could it possibly be that there were people from that unknown organization who had already infiltrated the Metropolitan Police Department?

The more he thought about it, the murkier the waters appeared. The attack from the monster they faced last night was certainly not a coincidence. He was a hundred percent sure that it had come for the three of them. Not any earlier, not any later, but exactly when they passed through the alley. The only plausible reason he could think of was the presence of Xiao Luo. And the Metropolitan Police Department was the only organization that knew that the Hua Nation had sent someone over.

Who was behind this then?

As he thought about that, Miyazaki Ronjin realized that the Metropolitan Police Department he had known his entire life was suddenly a dark hole to him. If there were policemen who were involved in the case of the missing Hua Nation persons, then that would be a crime!

BAM!

The meeting room door was violently pushed open. Miyazaki Ronjin stood at the entrance, while Kimura Akino, who managed to catch up, was panting heavily right behind him.

The huge meeting room was filled with people. They were ranking officers from the police department and the regional department. All heads of the various departments were present. All of them were in their police uniforms and sat up straight in their seats. When Miyazaki Ronjin pushed the door open, they all turned their heads and looked toward the entrance.

“Miyazaki-san, what are you doing here instead of recovering in the hospital?”

Tanaka Hiroshi was standing on the podium with a solemn look and spoke authoritatively. It was hard to tell if he was happy or sad.

Miyazaki Ronjin scanned the crowd, took another look at an image of Xiao Luo and the details that were displayed on the screen. He turned to Tanaka Hiroshi and asked, “Why did you list Xiao Han as a wanted person? What crime did he commit?”

“Miyazaki-san, you’re still injured. I’ll let you go on a long break, take good care of yourself, and recover well. You don’t have to concern yourself with…”

“Tanaka Hiroshi, I ask again, what crime did Xiao Han commit?” Miyazaki Ronjin roared at him.

Tanaka Hiroshi squinted his eyes, and his muscles twitched a bit. It was evident that the moment Miyazaki Ronjin shouted out his name, he was riled up.

“Miyazaki-san, what kind of attitude is this? Who gave you the right to speak to your Chief in such a way?”

Asou Shuyao stood up angrily and said, “You want to know what crime that god damn b*stard committed, right? Alright, I’ll tell you. He infiltrated our Asou family’s Lotus Manor last night and injured twenty to thirty members of their family. He even made our old man, Asou Jiro, impotent. It is unacceptable that we let such a vicious act go unpunished!”

Miyazaki Ronjin was shocked. He knew that Xiao Luo had probably committed a heinous crime at Lotus Manor, but hadn’t expected him to go so hard on them. With the kind of skills that Xiao Luo had, creating havoc in Lotus Manor was undoubtedly something he could easily achieve.

Yet, he still stood on Xiao Luo’s side. “Do you have any evidence?” he asked.

“Evidence? We have security cameras all over Lotus Manor. Do you think we’d even list him as a wanted person without any evidence?” Asou Shuyao said. She smiled coldly, changing the slide and showing the one with Xiao Luo on the screen.

Miyazaki Ronjin did not argue any further. The screen displayed an image of what happened at Lotus Manor last night. It had been taken by the security camera, and the man in that picture was none other than Xiao Han.

“That’s enough, we have all the evidence we need. Besides, the military has also given us some information. They suspect that this Xiao Han guy is not even a Hua Nation police officer, but a spy from Hua Nation,” Tanaka Hiroshi said.

Spy?

Miyazaki Rui was once again shocked. How was it that everything the department knew about Xiao Luo changed in the span of one night? How did this happen?

“Police, Traffic, Security, Regional, Public Security, and Criminal departments–organize a crime countermeasure task force and let all branch personnel know that we’ll be conducting a manhunt the prime suspect, Xiao Han. Monitor the airport and all exit points closely, and alert the navy and customs to increase their surveillance. We must catch him and crack this case!” Tanaka Hiroshi addressed the heads of departments in an inspiring tone of voice.

“Understood!”

Every member stood up smartly and responded in unison.

As the buzz died down, Miyazaki Ronjin suddenly opened his mouth and said, “I want to participate in this operation as well.”

“You?”

Tanaka Hiroshi giggled a little, “Miyazaki-san, forget it. Even if we ignore the fact that you’ll be retiring soon, that injured body of yours prevents you from taking part in any mission.”

Miyazaki Ronjin walked up and hopped on the lecture table right in front of Tanaka Hiroshi. It was made of solid wood, but when Miyazaki Ronjin stomped hard on the lecture table, he left a large hole in it and sent splinters of wood falling on the floor. He glared into Tanaka Hiroshi’s eyes. “This injury is nothing, I must take part in this operation no matter what!”

He had a suspicion that Tanaka Hiroshi was part of that covert organization involved in this. Based on military information? He was just saying this without any proof. Spy? Weren’t all of these just charges that were made up by this b*stard?

“Sure, I’ll allow the Fourth Division to participate in the operation. But please know this, if you take part in the operation, and an accident occurs, you’ll have to take full responsibility,” Tanaka Hiroshi replied, looking at Miyazaki Ronjin firmly.

“I’ll take full responsibility!” Miyazaki Ronjin said.
