Chapter 1806 Undercurrent

After a while, Belmode and Yu Gongming left the residence one after another.

After confirming that he was not being followed, Yu Gongming got into a car on the roadside, and the car drove away after he got in.

"How's it going?" Meng Yu, the co-pilot, asked, leaning his head.

"She agreed to help." Yu Gongming replied.

"Is it possible it's a trap?" Mouri Kogoro asked from the driver's seat.

"I can't rule out this possibility." Yu Gongming shook his head and said: "However, even if it is a trap, it should not be deliberately set by Belmode for us."

"She mentioned during the conversation that BOSS may have guessed that she has some contact with us, but at the same time, she still maintains contact with Belmode."

"With BOSS's cautious style of arranging a substitute and hiding behind the scenes, we might not have expected that we would track his whereabouts through Belmode."

"But he doesn't seem to have any relative restrictions on Belmod..." Meng Yu said thoughtfully.

"I think the organization BOSS might not be using Belmode to lure us out." Mouri Kogoro said calmly.

"Same feeling." Yu Gongming nodded and said: "Looking at the situation, we have lost the support of the police and have even been targeted by the police. If we can directly catch the BOSS, the situation is likely to be reversed."

"With such a temptation, we really have a lot of potential to try it when we have no other choice."

When Yu Gongming said this, he couldn't help but chuckle: "And the facts prove that we are indeed trying, right? But the difference is that our situation is not as difficult as the enemy imagined!"

"The other party will be prepared after all, so it's better to be careful." Mouri Kogoro reminded.

"I understand." Yu Gongming nodded slightly.

…………

Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, in the Office of the Police Chief.

Due to the temporary inability of Director Hakuba to perform his duties, the deputy director of the Metropolitan Police Department, Toshio Morohoshi, temporarily took over the duties of the director under the arrangement above and temporarily moved his office to the director's office.

At this time, with a burst of cell phone ringing, Toshio Morohoshi locked the door of his office to prevent the slightest possibility of someone suddenly entering.

He returned to his desk and sat down, then answered the phone: "Hello! This is Morohoshi."

"Director Zhuxing, good afternoon!" A deep male voice came from the opposite side.

When Zhuxing heard the sound, his expression suddenly changed: "Is it you? What do you want from me?"

The deep male voice chuckled: "Director Zhuxing has been very high-spirited recently. How do you feel about the position of police director?"

Shifu Morohoshi frowned and said in a deep voice: "There is no need for polite words. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

"Okay! Since Director Zhuxing speaks quickly, I won't beat around the bush." ​​The smile in the man's tone gradually faded: "How did you go about what you promised us before?"

Zhuxing's eyes flashed, and he replied: "I have arranged for people to investigate the people you are looking for, and I have some clues, but those guys are quite difficult to deal with, and we have not caught any of them so far."

"Oh? Didn't you try to contact them as acting director?" A deep male voice asked: "As far as I know, quite a few of them were directly under Baima's command before."

"Unfortunately, I can't contact them." Morohoshi Toshio replied: "They have always had a single line of contact with Hakuba. There is no information about them in the police archives. The confidentiality level is quite high."

"I had heard about some of Baima's methods of contacting them before and tried it, but the other party never responded. Obviously, the other party is not a fool and already knows that something is wrong."

"Have your subordinates also met with their people? Has no one seen the appearance of any of them?" A deep male voice asked coldly.

"No." Zhuxing replied: "They seem to have predicted our actions in advance. Every time we meet with them, they put on a disguise and there is no way to pinpoint a specific person."

At this point, he sneered, "Don't talk about us either. Aren't the ones you dispatched over there also self-proclaimed elite killers? How come you didn't even catch a single hair of theirs with our cooperation?"

The deep male voice snorted coldly: "Our people can't cooperate with you openly after all. Otherwise, once someone with an intention gets the handle, you, the director, will have to move your office chair before it gets warm."

Zhuxing's face suddenly darkened when he heard this, and anger arose in his heart.

But after all, he had been in a high position for many years, and his Qi cultivation skills were still good. He quickly calmed himself down and replied in a nonchalant manner: "There is no point in passing the buck. If you call here just to make unnecessary accusations, Then forgive me for not accompanying you."

"Director Zhuxing, please be patient!" The tone on the other side also softened slightly; "I'm calling this time just to discuss with you a strategy for dealing with them."

"Oh? I'm all ears." Zhu Xing said calmly.

"It's very simple. We will lead them to the designated place, and your people will surround them. It's best to capture those who can survive. If you can't capture them alive, kill them on the spot!"

"Is it that simple?" Zhu Xing frowned slightly: "They act very cautiously. What are you going to use to lure them out?"

"There is no need for Director Zhuxing to worry about this," the deep male voice replied inscrutably: "You only need to send someone over after receiving our notice."

"As for the reason... Arrest the suspect who poisoned and murdered the senior police officers, what do you think?"

Moroboshi Toshio's eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Okay, I promise you!"

"A wise choice!" The deep male voice laughed: "Believe me, you will not regret this decision. Soon, you will become a veritable superintendent!"

After the deep male voice finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Moroboshi Toshio put down the phone, exhaled slightly, and slowly leaned against the back of the chair.

Although he had a tough attitude just now, in fact, his status with the other party on the phone was not so equal.

He was semi-forced to cooperate with them when he had the handle in the hands of the other party, and now that things have come to this, he has no way back.

Moreover, cooperating with them is also the only hope he can see to go further.

Although he was already the deputy director, he was not a direct subordinate of Hakuba. In comparison, Odagiri Toshiro, the criminal director, was obviously more valued by Hakuba. Hakuba also intended to promote Odagiri to be the deputy director for a period of time, and then naturally gave him the position of director.

All this was seen by Moroboshi.

He was naturally unwilling.

And the person on the other end of the phone gave him a new opportunity.

Judging from the current development, his choice did not seem to be wrong.

"Humph! I hope you are really as well-connected as you boast!" He murmured in his heart.
