Chapter 131: Confrontation with Shiratori Jinzaburo
Police Chief!
Dong Ye Ning took the brand new police officer ID with both hands.
Express gratitude to superiors and make a commitment to the organization's trust, promising to do better and better in the future and eradicate evil.
Matsumoto Kiyonaga patted Dong Ye Ning's shoulder vigorously and said, "Do a good job. I have high hopes for you."
...
The promotion ceremony was over quickly.
What followed were various interviews, which were extremely annoying.
Dong Ye Ning patiently answered questions and accepted photos, his face almost stiff from smiling.
The work didn't end until noon because the Metropolitan Police Department would hold a press conference on him in the afternoon.
It was tiring, but I enjoyed it.
After all, the police officer's ID card with the rank of police captain written on it was already warm in his pocket.
It smells so good~
noon.
After dinner, Tono Ning returned to the Metropolitan Police Department. He planned to find Takagi Wataru to ask about the situation in Nara and see whether the protection plan for Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi's family had been implemented.
Although he promised Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi that he would protect the other party's family, in fact, apart from providing official assistance, Tono Ning did not have any better solutions in private.
Ultimately it's still too weak.
Even though he is now a police captain and is in the top 10% of the police system, it is still not good enough.
Logically speaking, Shigehiko Tsuguchi should have had some expectations in mind.
Rather than saying that he believed that Dong Ye Ning could protect his family, it would be better to say that he believed that the organization would not pursue the matter after his death and would leave his family a possible future.
Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi's gambler mentality lasted almost his entire life.
...
When I walked into the office of the First Investigation Division, Takagi Wataru was not there.
Instead, it was Shiratori Renzaburo who sat in Tono Ning's seat.
Seeing him coming over, Shiratori Renzaburo, who was originally flipping through the Sherlock Holmes collection, closed the book and chuckled, "Congratulations, Inspector Higashino."
He glanced at the book in his hand, "Does reading this kind of novel really help solve crimes?"
Shiratori Renzaburo said with some emotion, "If it works, I'll buy a set and try it out."
Dong Ye Ning walked over and was about to pull up a chair and sit down, but the other party stood up first and said, "Let's go to my office to talk."
Dong Ye Ning was not afraid that the other party would eat him, so he followed with an indifferent attitude.
Close the door gently.
He finally spoke, "I was able to be promoted to police inspector thanks to you, plus a little bit of luck."
Sitting in his comfortable chair, Shiratori Renzaburo shook his head, "It's more than just a little bit of luck. To be honest, I still can't understand why Councillor Tunkou strongly requested that you be promoted to police inspector before he died."
“It is even more incomprehensible that the House of Representatives would actually agree to this request.”
Isn't this the help of my beloved concubine?
Being promoted to the rank of police inspector is already a challenge to tradition, let alone being promoted one level higher in a short period of time.
From what Shiratori Renzaburo said, the Shiratori family did not contribute to the promotion to police chief, or at least did not push for it by force.
That's why Higashino Ning concluded that promotion to police lieutenant was the exact reward provided by the "promotion clues".
Ai Fei made some impossible things come true in the trend of the times and gave them to herself as rewards.
Yes, it is too sensational that a mere patrol chief was promoted to superintendent of police in just two days.
Dong Ye Ning stared into Shiratori Renzaburo's eyes for a while and sighed slightly, "Just say whatever you want to say. It's pointless to beat around the bush. It's more efficient to be direct."
"Okay, then I'll get straight to the point." Shiratori Renzaburo clasped his hands together and leaned forward. "I want to know what agreement you reached with Tsuguchi Shigehiko, and whether you are still willing to work for our Shiratori family."
The confident smile on his face was full of temptation. "Now that we are on the same level, I don't mind you talking to me in a straightforward tone."
Dong Ye Ning raised his eyebrows, "If I don't work for the Shiratori family, who will I work for? Councillor Tunkou is dead, how can I work for a dead person?"
Seeing that Shiratori Renzaburo was still staring at him, he had no choice but to continue, "The relationship between Councillor Tunkou and I is not as complicated as you think."
"Although you may not believe it, I may just be the lucky one who was rewarded by his conscience before he died."
Dong Ye Ning pushed the chair away and stood up. "Don't look at what I say, but look at what I do. A mere police inspector is nothing in the eyes of your Shiratori family, right?"
"Being nervous and sensitive is the prelude to failure. As my supporter, if you collapse before your time comes, don't blame me for stepping on you and spitting on you."
Shiratori Renzaburo: "......"
Bro, I think you're being a little too blunt.
However, Dong Ye Ning's attitude really made him feel at ease.
Now the relationship between him and Dong Ye Ning became simpler, a pure exchange of interests, without anything else involved.
The purer the relationship, the easier it is to maintain.
The more interests are involved, the stronger the relationship.
The premise is that the Shiratori family will not collapse.
Of course, Shiratori Jinzaburo does not think that his family will fall, so the relationship is still stable.
In fact, it is a good thing for Dong Ye Ning that he is promoted quickly now.
At least when he starts to make big moves in the future, he will have a precedent to follow, and the probability of success will naturally be greater.
Shiratori Renzaburo also stood up and said, "I'll host you tonight to celebrate your promotion. I also wish us better development in the future."
"Also, my sister is going to hold an engagement party soon. Officer Dongye, please do me the honor of coming over to chat."
Dong Ye Ning quickly waved his hands when he heard this, "Inspector Shiratori, you are joking. It is my honor to be able to attend the engagement party."
"But forget about the dinner tonight. I have other things to do. Sorry I can't be there."
After all, Shiratori Jinzaburo is still his "boss" and the one who actually provides him with help.
It's fine to have a moderate attitude and make jokes. Otherwise, Tiangang is likely to be hated by others, and there is a high probability that he will be forced to spit out what he has already swallowed.
Dong Ye Ning blinked his eyes and said, "Why don't I treat Inspector Shiratori to a meal tomorrow? My ability is limited, but my sincerity is full."
Shiratori Renzaburo couldn't help but laugh, "You are really too frank, but your frankness is admirable. Don't worry, I'm not someone who needs to have a big meal. I'll follow your arrangements tomorrow night."
This matter is over now.
Things are explained and accounted for, and friendships are communicated and maintained.
Dong Ye Ning nodded and smiled, then went out.
By now, most of the colleagues who went out for lunch have returned, including Takagi Wataru.
But what is more surprising is that Sheshe was actually chatting with Sato Miwako, and they were talking and laughing!
This is simply unprecedented!
Dong Ye Ning couldn't help but approach quietly.
But the environment was like that, with little obstruction, and Sato Miwako quickly spotted him.
"Higashino-kun, I was just looking for you." Sato Miwako smiled and waved. When he approached, she immediately said, "Let's go out for dinner tonight. Yumi really wants to know how you got promoted so quickly."
"Also, remember to bring Ai with you. We haven't seen her for a long time and we miss her a lot."
