After pulling out the file, Mizuno Reina's expression changed.

Because what she pulled out was

"dad?!"

Looking at the familiar time and place of the crime marked on the cover of the file, she knew it without opening the file and taking a closer look:

Contained here is the death file of her father, Ethan Hondo.

Ethan Hondo, Rena Minami's father, is a Japanese-American, a CIA agent with 30 years of work experience, and an undercover agent who successfully broke into the black organization.

Four years ago, Mizumu Rena, who inherited her father's career and also became a CIA agent, was ordered by her superiors to sneak into the black organization under the pseudonym "Mizumu Rena" and serve as a liaison for her father who had successfully gone undercover inside the organization.

However, during a meeting to exchange information, Rena Mizuno, because she was young and inexperienced, did not discover that there was a transmitter on her clothes that the organization used to monitor new members, and the secret meeting between the two was exposed.

Then Gin came over in his Porsche.

In order to save his daughter's life, Ethan Hondo decisively injected her with veritaserum, bit off his own wrist and shot himself. He also used a recorder that he had recorded in advance to interrogate his daughter but did not record her voice.

Make organization members mistakenly believe that:

"After discovering Ethan's doubts, Rena Minami took him out for interrogation, but was controlled by him. Even though she was injected with veritaserum, she still remained determined and did not reveal any information. After biting off Ethan's wrist, she snatched the pistol and shot him

It kills.”

As a result, she was able to survive Gin's butcher's knife, gain the trust of the organization, and even gain the appreciation of the boss, and continue to lurk as an organization cadre, Keir, to this day.

"dad"

Shui Wulian will never forget that it was his father's sacrifice that allowed him to live until now.

But this memory has also been deeply buried in her long hidden life.

But at this moment, memories of the past quietly come to mind.

In an unexpected way.

"Ms. Minato, Miss Minami?"

Lin Xinyi and Miyano Shiho both looked over with concerned expressions.

Narumi Asai also discovered something strange about her:

"What’s wrong with you?"

"Is there anything wrong with this dossier?"

"No, no" Shui Wulian suddenly came back to his senses.

The unexpected shock made her almost lose control.

This is a big no-no for an undercover agent.

Especially, he lost his composure in front of Lin Xinyi, Mao Lilan, Asai Narumi, the most astute policemen in the Metropolitan Police Department.

"I am"

Shui Wulian quickly adjusted his emotions and said calmly:

"I just suddenly remembered that I seem to have some impressions of this case."

"Oh?" Lin Xinyi and others were a little curious.

Just listen to Shui Wu Liannai calmly explain:

"In 1992, that is, four years ago when the incident occurred, I was still a rookie reporter who had just joined Nippon TV Station."

"And the abandoned warehouse where this case occurred is not far from the Japanese TV station."

"So this case caused a lot of discussion in our station at that time."

"I see."

Asai Narumi nodded thoughtfully:

"I remembered that this case seemed to have been in the newspapers at that time."

Because the crime occurred in the center of Miwa Town.

There were also traces of firearms, bullet holes, bloodstains, and other signs of armed exchanges left at the scene.

And the body of an unknown man who did not carry any documents and whose head was shot through by a bullet.

All signs indicate that this case is probably not an ordinary criminal homicide, but a murder involving gangs and violence.

"The Metropolitan Police at the time speculated that the deceased might be related to some underworld gang members and underground criminal organizations."

"In order to find out the identity of this corpse, we also published a newspaper to collect clues about the case from the whole society."

"But then I still found nothing."

"Not only did no one provide clues, but no one came forward to claim the body."

"The police couldn't even figure out the identity of the deceased, so the case gradually faded out of the public eye and just ended."

Anyway, the security in Tokyo in this world is extremely poor.

Don't let there be too many conflicts between gangs, bomb maniacs, bank robber gangs, jewelry robbery gangs and other criminal organizations.

It's just an unknown man who is suspected of being a gang member. If you can't find it, just don't investigate it at all.

So this case has been backlogged until now.

It became the old case file that Reina Mizuna is holding in her hands now.

"That's right"

Lin Xinyi roughly understood the ins and outs of the case.

He sighed helplessly:

“Looking at this case alone, we can’t blame the Metropolitan Police Department for failing in its duties.”

"The murderer left immediately after killing him and disappeared from the world."

"The identity of the deceased is unknown, and the social relationship is a mystery."

"Even if I take over this case, I'm afraid there won't be any results."

In a world without surveillance, big data, fingerprints and DNA databases, such headless cases are almost unsolvable.

Therefore, Lin Xinyi could only admit honestly that he was not very sure either.

"Then why don't we investigate another case?"

Shui Wulian calmly put down the file that she had secretly picked out with her finger marks:

"As the first case when the project is launched, we should choose one that is easy to detect, right?"

"Otherwise, our TV station's cameras will only be able to capture the 'incompetent' scenes of everyone's sad faces and difficulties."

She suggested half-jokingly.

But the real reason is

Can't check.

This case cannot be investigated.

It's okay if we can't find out the truth. If we find out the truth, and the news is accidentally leaked,

What if the people in the organization knew that Ethan Bentang did not die due to the counterattack of Miss Keel, but committed suicide to protect her daughter?

Then she would be in big trouble.

So Shui Wu Liannai could only "sincerely" suggest that Lin Xinyi change to a simpler case to investigate.

But Lin Xinyi just shook his head firmly:

"No."

"Although the case is difficult, it may not be impossible to solve."

"If we don't investigate a difficult case and just forget about it to save trouble, what's the difference between this and those guys who were perfunctory in the past?"

"and"

Lin Xinyi picked up the file and sighed softly:

"The case of the 'Unknown Man's Corpse', eh"

"Four years have passed since the incident, but the deceased still doesn't have a name."

"I'm afraid his family members are still waiting, right?"

"Waiting for their families to come back."

"I" Shui Wulian was speechless for a moment.

Having undergone rigorous agent training, she could not control her inner softness at this moment.

Her father has been gone for 4 years.

It was a miserable walk.
