"Next, we will explain to the media the recent murders in Ukima Park!"

…

In the conference room of the Metropolitan Police Department, Chief of the Investigation Section 1 Yoshinobu Oiwa was sitting on the podium, looking like he was facing a formidable enemy. The reporters in the audience were already grinding their fists at this time.

, waiting to challenge this man who is at the top of the police force at any time.

This is a war between the Journalists Association and the Metropolitan Police Department. Because they have a complete monopoly on news reporting rights, whenever a major case occurs, these reporters who have been stationed at the Metropolitan Police Department for a long time will unite and do their best.

The police try their best to get more search information from the police. In order to prevent the murderer from grasping the police's movements, the police will try their best to avoid leaking excess information. In this way, there will always be irreconcilable contradictions between the two sides in the scale of reporting.

.

This is not the first time that Hosokawa has experienced such a scene. Ever since the news of Yuriko Asakawa's murder came out, he had already made preparations for reporting on this case.

Why did this case receive so much media attention?

Because the person who died was not an ordinary rich girl, but the heiress of Asakawa Electric. In fact, there has been news for a long time that Yuriko Asakawa was a woman with a very complicated emotional experience. And now, this woman's death involves Asakawa Electric.

The battle for the future.

"Woooo..."

Just when the briefing was about to start, Hosokawa's cell phone placed on the table suddenly vibrated. When Hosokawa saw it, he wanted to refuse to answer it first, but when he saw that the phone number that lit up was Telegram,

At this time, Hosokawa quickly put on the Bluetooth headset and then pressed the answer button.

"Moses! Moses!"

"Hosokawa-san! There are some things I would like you to investigate?"

"Hey, but... the press conference is about to start!"

"Ah...that's perfect! If you get the right to ask questions later, can you help me confirm a few things?"

"Uh...okay!"

Just after Hosokawa answered the phone, the venue gradually became quiet. Seeing that all the reporters participating in the meeting were already in place, the Metropolitan Police Public Relations Officer in charge of presiding over the meeting faced the reporters present.

They said:

"Then, please tell me what you want to know!"

…

"Can you hear me clearly?"

"No problem, please raise your hand!"

Hosokawa heard the instructions from the mysterious informant on the other end of the phone and quickly raised his hand. Reporter Matsuyama on the side saw that Hosokawa was still on the phone and couldn't help but asked a little strangely:

"Hosokawa-san, who are you calling?"

"Ah... a friend, Matsuyama! Wait a minute, if you get the right to ask questions, can you help me ask a few questions?"

"Eh?"

…

Seeing the reporters in the audience raising their hands one after another, the press officer pointed at a reporter with whom he usually had a good relationship.

"Sorry, has the Metropolitan Police Department linked the death of the victim Yuriko Asakawa to the inheritance dispute within Asakawa Electric?"

After listening to the reporter’s question, Section Chief Oiwa immediately said cheerfully:

"No, we haven't found anything in this area yet!"

…

Seeing that the first question was wasted like this, all the reporters present were angry that the press officer assigned the question. But then, the second person to ask the question was a very young newcomer.

"I'm sorry, I would like to ask you something. There is news that Asakawa Yuriko once dated a cowherd during her lifetime. May I ask... did she die in a vendetta?"

"Regarding this... we are still investigating."

…

At this time, Hosokawa heard the questions asked by the reporters who had easily obtained the right to ask questions, and suddenly felt an atmosphere in his heart. He could see that the broadcasting officer seemed to have found his own internal correspondent in the Journalists Association in advance, and these questions were raised

Either it's too broad, or it's too easy. If this continues, everyone will have to piece together a report using some information that everyone already knows. After thinking of this, Hosokawa waited until the speaker sat down and said nothing.

The publicity officer named him and said loudly:

"Public Communications Officer, are you just going to send us away with these worthless contents? If the first section leader's answers are all lies like "I don't know" and "Still under investigation", you will

Do you think it’s necessary to continue today’s meeting?”

As soon as Hosokawa said this, a burst of support shouts came from behind him.

"Good question, Hosokawa!"

"That's it, can't the Metropolitan Police consider the position of journalists like us? Even if they can't disclose all the information, they still need to let us know about the situation of the deceased!"

"That's right, if this continues, we might as well leave early!"

…

Seeing that the situation seemed to be getting out of control, the public relations officer hurriedly looked at Hosokawa, who stood up on his own initiative, with a vague look of pleading on his face.

"Chief of the First Section, I would like to ask the deceased Yuriko Asakawa, what was the condition of her body when it was found, what was the cause of her death, whether she had been brutally treated by the murderer, and whether the victim had been sexually abused before she was killed.

Infringement in all aspects..."

Facing Hosokawa's barrage of questions, the section chief sitting on the stage quickly flipped through the information in his hand. After all, this case was not handled by him alone!

"Um... Regarding the condition of the deceased's body... When the deceased's body was found, her clothes were intact, and the cause of her death was that the murderer stabbed the deceased's heart with a sharp blade, causing a large amount of blood loss. As for the violation

On the other hand, the forensic officer found no relevant traces!”

"Kill with one knife?"

Hosokawa was afraid that the informant on the phone wouldn't hear, so he repeated what Oiwa Nobuyoshi had just said.

"So, any questions?"

As he stood up and the reporter fell silent, Section Chief Oiwa quickly asked another question.

"There is another question. A few months ago, a woman was murdered under the railway bridge in Shinagawa. The deceased was also a woman, and the cause of death was suffocation by the murderer. Moreover, the deceased also did not suffer any injuries during her lifetime.

Infringement by a prisoner! Excuse me, does the Metropolitan Police believe that there is some connection between the two cases?"

"Ah? How can these two cases be related?"

When Section Chief Oiwa heard Hosokawa's question, he couldn't help but froze on the spot. Although he had also heard about the case, he did not connect the two cases. Moreover, his subordinate Shirakawa Police Department did not mention it.
