Chapter 34 Processing Methods
3 PM, Sanbonsugi Kogyo Co., Ltd.
"You mean you want us to help take care of her... But wouldn't it be more convenient for you to do it yourself? I don't believe that a bunch of delinquents at school would dare to mess with the police."
Matsumoto Teng never expected to see Kamiya Gen twice in one day.
And the other party left only a few hours ago, and then brought back a girl.
Speaking of which, this girl is really pretty. The brothel on Ichiban Street is short of staff...
Kamiya Gen, unaware of his thoughts, casually remarked, "Look at her like this, even if I took her to high school and said she was my sister, who would believe me?"
As she spoke, she subconsciously glanced at Miyazawa Yuzuki's messy blonde hair.
In fact, Kamiya Gen did consider going to the school himself, but definitely not to catch all the "bad guys".
Those are all students; they're not easy to catch.
Once she leaves, Miyazawa Yuzuki will definitely face even harsher retaliation from her peers.
Today it might just be a minor head injury, but next time it could be a different story.
He's not her biological brother, so he can't possibly pick up and drop off Miyazawa Yuzuki every day.
After much consideration, it is still most appropriate to entrust this matter to Matsumoto Teng.
It's not unusual for someone who's a low-level gangster to have a somewhat disobedient "sister" under his command.
The most difficult part of this matter is not explaining to Miyazawa Yuzuki that she, as a police officer, has ties to the yakuza.
The real challenge was figuring out how to carry Muheyou here.
The thought of the questioning he might face upon returning home gave Kamiya Gen a headache.
Just then, Matsumoto Teng suddenly spoke up:
"That's no trouble at all. I can just have one of my men do it. It's not that I'm unwilling to help you, it's just that I've been dealing with some very complicated matters lately and simply can't spare the time..."
Kamiya Gen knew that this was about to involve setting conditions.
Actually, the time he came over that morning, he was just waiting for the other party to ask for something in return.
After all, Matsumoto Teng had helped him a lot with the Takahashi incident.
Unexpectedly, after talking for almost an hour, the guy didn't say anything, so Kamiya Gen had no choice but to leave. He eventually encountered Miyazawa Yuzuki, who was being blocked by thugs, on the way.
—Huh? Is this girl some kind of troublemaker? How come she gets bullied at school and then encounters this kind of thing outside too?
Kamiya Gen belatedly realized this and spoke to Matsumoto Teng:
"What's wrong? Can I help?"
"Only you can help with this, but..."
Matsumoto Teng laughed, finding it easy to talk to smart people, unlike the idiots under his command who needed to be explicitly told what to do before they could understand.
"Spit it out if you have something to say," Kamiya Gen said.
Matsumoto Teng paused for a moment, then began to recount the troubles he was currently facing.
Miyazawa Yuzuki sat quietly to the side, listening to the two chatting, her heart filled with turbulent emotions.
……
She never imagined that the seemingly upright Mr. Kamiya would actually get involved with a yakuza organization.
Moreover, it seemed that the other party respected him very much, adopting a humble and subservient attitude.
Miyazawa Yuzuki didn't know anything about a police inspector. She originally thought that Kamiya Gen was just an ordinary policeman, no different from the slovenly men she usually encountered on the street.
Moreover, I wonder if I should leave. Listening to them sit together and talk about these things is really hard to bear.
I'm... just a high school student.
At this point, Miyazawa Yuzuki had already forgotten her "delinquent" label.
"etc."
Kamiya Gen suddenly interrupted Matsumoto Ken, waving his hand at Miyazawa Yuzuki, "Go sit in the room next door first."
Miyazawa Yuzuki felt as if she had been granted a pardon and quickly ran away.
After she walked away, Matsumoto Teng realized his mistake and quickly apologized with a smile.
"I'm too vulgar; I forget about it once we start talking."
"It's alright, please continue," Kamiya Gen waved his hand.
Matsumoto Teng nodded and continued to describe his current predicament:
"Just like I said, the gang is currently facing difficulties in transformation. You can tell my thoughts by looking at the loan company I'm currently working for. But the higher-ups don't agree. Many old men are still considering going through the old ways, like prostitution, protection money, and other illegal activities. That's why I thought I'd need your help..."
"Just give me the location, the number of people, and the time, and I'll arrange the arrest. Don't worry, no one will suspect you."
Kamiya Gen didn't like beating around the bush, so he cut straight to the end.
Matsumoto Teng immediately smiled and said, "It's so relaxing chatting with you."
Then, he took out a full stack of documents from his pocket, stood up, bent down, and handed them over.
Kamiya Gen was stunned, never expecting this guy to be so well-prepared.
He took the document, quickly scanned the information on it, and swallowed hard.
This isn't asking for help; it's giving me a huge gift.
The case submitted by Matsumoto Teng was indeed a very big one.
If things go smoothly, according to Kamiya Gen's observation, he might skip the next ten months or so of service and directly take the exam to be promoted to police inspector ahead of schedule.
In Japan, the promotion of police inspectors has never been based on the number of cases solved or individual ability, but mainly on time.
Non-professional police officers, such as Satoshi Ohno, have to wait at least four years and still might not get a promotion—after all, there's only one spot available for each officer, and if the original inspector doesn't get promoted, no matter how hard the subordinates work, it's useless.
However, "professional groups" like Kamiya Gen and Kiha Yu are different; as long as they have worked for a year, they can be promoted directly.
Therefore, the case submitted by Matsumoto Teng can be said to be of great value.
This also puzzled Kamiya Gen. How could the Yakuza, which was only a relatively recent group of yakuza, have such a huge "business" involved?
"How about it, Inspector Kamiya? Is this enough?"
Matsumoto Ken seized the opportunity and began to demonstrate his loyalty.
"Once this succeeds, I'll be the only one in charge of Shibuya. Don't worry, no matter what position I hold, you'll always be Matsumoto's man!"
Kamiya Gen shook his head, gesturing for him to sit down and talk: "Is your information accurate? Your club is actually able to go to places outside of Tokyo?"
Matsumoto hesitated for a moment, then spoke:
"We didn't have this connection with Kyoto before, but recently a big shot there seems to be planning to start a business in Shibuya, so we've been able to make contact with outside forces."
Kamiya Gen nodded, though he hesitated.
If these clues are true, I can report them and then wait to reap the rewards.
But wouldn't that be too much trouble?
To be promoted to police inspector ten months ahead of schedule... was it really necessary for me?
He turned to look at Miyazawa Yuzuki sitting in the room next door. He never expected that he would get himself into such a hot potato because of a high school delinquent.
