Chapter 24 Ask Noguchi Matsuo to help him deal with himself (ask for monthly tickets!) Before opening the file bag, Aoyama Hidenobu thought that Nakamura Shinichi had only found the official registration information of the three people, but the level of detail surprised him. No wonder he has dark circles under his eyes. I guess, in addition to asking his friends for help, Shinichi Nakamura himself hasn't slept a wink since yesterday afternoon until now. Then he thought about how he fell asleep holding Mrs. Nohara's curvy body after having sex last night, while his subordinates stayed up all night because they had to complete his orders. Let Qingshan Xiuxin feel really... excited! It’s so cool to be a leader (σ≧▽≦)σ. ! It’s so nice to be just a small official. If you become the Prime Minister, won’t you be able to take off? Putting aside his wandering thoughts, Aoyama Hidenobu focused his attention again on the information in his hand. The users of the three numbers were a senior pimp in Kabukicho, a manager of an entertainment club, and a businessman named Junichi Matsushita. Combined with the time points of drug purchases given by Akihiro Takizawa, it can be found in the communication records that Jiro Noguchi would call Junichi Matsushita before selling drugs to him every time. So there is no doubt that even if Junichi Matsushita was not the person in charge of the drug business within the Noguchi-kai, he was at least a participant. His identity as a businessman is just a smokescreen.

The most urgent task is to find a way to determine whether Jun'ichi Matsushita is a participant or the person in charge. Then make corresponding arrangements. In order to confirm the identity of Jun'ichi Matsushita, Aoyama Hidenobu immediately thought of Fujimoto Yoshiichi. He asked this guy to check the information of the Noguchi Society, but he didn't know how the investigation was going. Just as he was about to make a phone call to ask, he saw Fujimoto Yoshiichi appear at the door of the office out of the corner of his eye. Aoyama Hidenobu stood up and walked over. "I was just about to look for you. How is the Noguchi investigation going?" "Let's talk over here." Fujimoto Ryoichi pulled Aoyama Hidenobu into the stairwell, and then spoke anxiously, "Hidenobu-san, the new head of the Criminal Division has been decided. Do you know who it is?" "Who is it?" Aoyama Hidenobu asked casually. "Takahashi Tomoe." Fujimoto Ryoichi slowly uttered a name, and then continued: "It's your old boss Takahashi Tomoe in the Metropolitan Police Department. I heard that he was able to step down because of the recommendation of Inspector Sato. Don't you have a grudge against Sato? Now you are in trouble." "How could a mere inspection chief like you find out this?" Aoyama Hidenobu looked at him suspiciously. Fujimoto Ryoichi laughed at himself, "I used to be very eager to climb up the social ladder, desperate to seek help from all kinds of gods, saving up some money to burn incense to all gods. Although these gods didn't like me, I was able to put down my shame and was able to get things done. In the process, I got to know a lot of little ghosts." "Oh~ No wonder he's so well-informed, it turns out he has quite a few connections." Aoyama Hidenobu teased. "That's not the point." Fujimoto Ryoichi brought the topic back on track and said anxiously, "The point is that Takahashi will definitely target you when he comes. You'd better be prepared in advance and think of a countermeasure." "We have a plan to deal with it. I guarantee it will be enough to give him a hard time." Aoyama Hidenobu looked at Fujimoto Ryoichi in front of him and his mouth corners slowly rose, but he was not in a hurry to elaborate further. Instead, he asked again: "How is the information I asked you to investigate about the Noguchi Society going?" "Why are you in such a hurry? I just came here to give this to you." Fujimoto Ryoichi took out a thick file bag from his pocket and added, "You are in a hurry. I have tried my best to have people check it, but there must be omissions. Now please check which information is missing and need to be checked again. I will make a note of it." Aoyama Hidenobu didn't bother to reply. He took the file bag and couldn't wait to take out the documents and start looking through them. It records the information of all the core members of the Noguchi Society, as well as the distribution of territories, main sources of income, etc., and it turned out that Matsuo Noguchi was personally in charge of the acquisition of Nohara Financial Co., Ltd. It seems that Noguchi will make this acquisition a key task in the near future. Therefore, if Aoyama Hidenobu wants to keep his own industry, he must eliminate Noguchi Matsuo's acquisition intention, but this is obviously impossible. In this case, the only option is to eliminate this person. Aoyama Hidenobu continued to flip through the pages and found Jun'ichi Matsushita's name, which was circled separately. Fujimoto Ryoichi noticed his gaze and took the initiative to explain: "I know this person. He is not a member of a gang and is not officially registered, but he has a very good relationship with Noguchi Matsuo and has a high position in the Noguchi-kai. His relationship with the Noguchi-kai is openly a collaboration to open an entertainment venue, but it is unclear behind the scenes."

After hearing this, Aoyama Hidenobu is now basically certain that Jun'ichi Matsushita is the person in charge of the drug business within the Noguchi-kai. He has no background in a gang and is not even a member of the Noguchi-kai, but it is convenient for him to distance himself from the gang after the truth is revealed. But the next question is, how can we get evidence of his drug trafficking? Moreover, such people are usually loyal to the gang actively or passively. Even if I get caught, I will take all the blame. How could he get him to testify against Noguchi Matsuo? Aoyama Hidenobu quickly came up with a solution. That is to ask Matsuo Noguchi for help! .............................. Half an hour later, in a private room of an izakaya in Shinjuku District, Aoyama Hidenobu was sitting with his eyes closed and resting. I opened my eyes when I heard light footsteps. Then the camphor door was pushed open, and the figure of Noguchi Matsuo appeared at the door. Aoyama Hidenobu quickly stood up and bowed respectfully to greet him, "President Noguchi." "Vice Minister Aoyama." Noguchi Matsuo bowed slightly in return, entered the private room and sat down, and asked directly: "Vice Minister Aoyama's tone on the phone was very urgent. I wonder what happened?" "President Noguchi, are you sure that there are really no ears behind the walls here?" Aoyama Hidenobu was a little uneasy. Noguchi Matsuo was very confident, "This is the property of the Noguchi-kai, Vice Minister Aoyama, please speak freely." "Hi!" Aoyama Hidenobu lowered his head slightly, then raised it again and said a name, "Matsushita Junichi." Noguchi Matsuo paused for a moment as he reached for the teacup, but soon returned to normal, took a sip of tea and said, "Junichi, he is a very good friend of mine. What does Vice Minister Aoyama mean by mentioning him?" "President Noguchi." Aoyama Hidenobu swallowed nervously and said in a deep voice: "According to your instructions, I have been forcing Takizawa Akira to admit that he committed murder on purpose, but he insisted that he had taken drugs before the murder and was unconscious and had no intention of killing anyone." When Noguchi Matsuo heard this, his face turned gloomy. Aoyama Hidenobu continued, "Because the interrogation was not progressing, my superior personally interrogated Takizawa Akimasa, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect this guy to say a lot of nonsense. Not only did he not admit his guilt, he also wanted to report the Noguchi-kai for drug trafficking, and mentioned the name Matsushita Jun'ichi, saying that he once accidentally heard your brother and this person talking on the phone about drug trafficking." "Baka!" Noguchi Matsuo was furious and smashed the teacup in his hand, cursing, "This bastard is just talking nonsense. Matsushita Junichi is my friend, not a member of the Noguchi-kai at all! Even if he is really a drug dealer, what does he have to do with the Noguchi-kai?" He was almost mad with rage, and if Jiro Noguchi hadn't been dead, he would have strangled him to death with his own hands. "Yes, yes, yes." Aoyama Hidenobu nodded repeatedly to show his agreement, but then changed the subject, "However, our country has always been strict in banning corruption. My superiors have probably reported the matter to the higher authorities. Director Asai will definitely investigate it thoroughly. Although Junichi Matsushita is not a member of the Noguchi-kai, he is your friend. In order to prevent him from being implicated, you must make arrangements early." "Huh!" Noguchi Matsuo took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and bowed slightly to Aoyama Hidenobu to express his gratitude, "Thank you, Vice Minister Aoyama, for your concern." Then he clapped his hands. The camphor door was slowly pushed open, and a younger brother guarding the door bowed and shouted, "President." "Bring the gift for Vice Minister Aoyama." "Hi!" The younger brother turned and left, and returned a few minutes later with a small suitcase. He placed it on the table in the private room and opened it. It was full of financial bonds. Financial bonds were originally issued by bond credit banks and are bearer bonds. When the buyer purchases them, the bank will deduct the interest payable. When the bonds mature, anyone who takes the bonds can redeem them in full at face value. It is precisely because of this characteristic that this type of bond has become the best tool for bribery and is a favorite of everyone in the Japanese political circle. "This... this is no reward without merit." Aoyama Hidenobu was shocked and refused in a pretentious manner.

Noguchi Matsuo pushed the box in front of him and said sincerely: "Vice Minister Aoyama has helped me a lot by coming to report the news. Please be sure to accept it." "This... this is so polite. I can't refuse such a kind offer, I can't refuse such a kind offer!" Aoyama Hidenobu closed the box, picked up the box and stood up to say goodbye. "Then I will leave first. President Noguchi must arrange for Junichi Matsushita as soon as possible. I will keep you informed at any time." "Thank you very much, Vice Minister Aoyama." "It's not hard. It's my duty. President Noguchi, please stay. You don't have to see me off. You don't have to see me off." (End of this chapter)
