Chapter 21 Police: Arrested in One Go!
"How's it going? Did you manage to track them down?"
Upon seeing Sato return, Inspector Yamato quickly asked.
This killer was extremely cautious.
No fingerprints, footprints, hair, or other traces were left at the scene.
He even sprayed disinfectant before leaving to eliminate any lingering odors.
There was absolutely no blood at the scene!
There were no belongings he left behind!
In such situations, even police dogs have difficulty tracking the suspect.
But he did it anyway.
They were so cautious that they made the police tremble with anger.
The incident occurred at around 2 a.m., and there were few pedestrians on the road.
They made inquiries but were unable to find any witnesses.
According to nearby residents, they haven't seen any suspicious people recently.
This should have been an unsolved case.
The kind where even the suspect can't be found.
Fortunately, justice prevails.
They found the suspect in the surveillance footage!
Although his face wasn't captured in the photo and his figure was well-covered, some clues were indeed found.
A cautious person would never commit a crime without scouting the location first!
Therefore, by reviewing the surveillance footage from the most recent period, we may be able to find more clues!
Sure enough, Sato pulled out a map and spread it out in front of Inspector Yamato.
There were some dots and lines drawn on it, as well as a circle drawn in red pen.
Another detective came over to take a look and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "Japan should install more surveillance cameras!"
"That would make our case handling process much easier."
"Many cases are difficult to solve, or even impossible to solve, because there is too little surveillance!"
"Look, there are so few clues here, and they're all broken in many places."
"It would be better if it were more complete."
"Damn it! Where is all the taxpayers' money going?"
Inspector Yamato remained silent.
It's good enough if we can find any clues.
If such a cautious killer really left many clues in the surveillance footage, then he would become suspicious.
He frowned as he looked at the map in front of him.
Sato, who was standing nearby, explained: "This is the location and time where the suspect was accidentally captured by surveillance footage from a recent period of time, and the most likely route of movement that we deduced from this."
After saying that, he pressed his finger on the red circle: "This is where he last disappeared."
"That place is..."
A realization dawned on Inspector Yamato's eyes.
Sato replied, "It's the territory of the Fang Group."
"Team 100..." Inspector Yamato frowned.
The newly emerging yakuza organizations in recent years.
Unlike the yakuza who now operate in a law-abiding manner, the Fang Gumi is a legitimate violent organization.
Young and aggressive.
Many older-generation yakuza members are unwilling to provoke them.
"According to the investigation, the victim was quite arrogant, relying on his connections with the New Wind Group, and had made many enemies both inside and outside the industry. We believe this is very likely a hired murder case, with the Dental Group as the executor. Furthermore…"
As he spoke, Sato took out a photograph.
The photo has been enlarged and is very blurry.
"This was taken by chance."
Inspector Yamato narrowed his eyes: "Tattoo."
This is a very important clue.
Unfortunately, the camera that captured this scene was rather old.
Plus, it was nighttime.
So the photo isn't very clear.
"Because it was revealed by chance, and only a corner was visible, we almost missed this clue. It was Xiaotian who spotted it with his sharp eyes."
At this moment, Sato took out another photograph.
The photo shows a man.
"This is Kurosawa Sho, the 'Lion Fang' of the Tooth Group."
"After comparison, the tattoo that the suspect showed was more than 90% similar to his own tattoo!"
"In addition, Kurosawa Sho's height is similar to that of the suspect."
"According to rumors, he is a cautious person, not the kind who only knows how to fight and kill."
"We suspect he is the suspect!"
Inspector Yamato leaned back in his chair, put his hands behind his head, and closed his eyes to think.
Soon, he opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and piercing.
"Apply for a search warrant, arrest Kurosawa Sho, and search his house thoroughly!"
"The killer was cautious, but extremely greedy!"
"They not only stole the cash from the safe, but they even took the watch the victim was wearing!"
Every Rolex watch has a serial number!
"In fact, if you're lucky, you might even find the victim's fingerprints and skin tissue on it!"
"Let's get moving, and we need to be quick!"
"Yes, police department!"
The police sprang into action.
Soon, "Lion Fang" Kurosawa Sho was arrested.
According to the interrogation, he was sleeping at home on the night of the incident.
In other words, there is no alibi.
In addition, a large amount of cash, as well as the victim's watch, were found in his safe!
The perpetrators were caught red-handed, and the evidence was irrefutable!
As for Kurosawa Sho's bewildered expression, the police believed it was nothing more than an act.
Many prisoners have excellent acting skills.
But what matters in handling cases is evidence, not who looks innocent.
Besides, how could someone like you, a yakuza, be innocent?
Don't you know your own reputation?
What the police didn't know was that Kurosawa Sho was truly innocent in this matter.
He remained calm when the police told him he was suspected of a murder and presented him with a search warrant, asking him to open the safe for inspection.
But when I opened it, I was completely dumbfounded.
When did so much money appear inside?!
Damn it! Who put it in there?!
Not to mention he was dumbfounded, even the leader of the Fang Group, "Ryuga" Oni-Gar Ryuji, was dumbfounded after learning what had happened.
Because the police have solid evidence.
His first thought was that Kurosawa had taken on a side job.
But soon, as the police demanded that the Kiba gang hand over the remaining stolen money, Kiba Ryuji realized that Kurosawa might really have been wronged.
Or perhaps he hid the remaining stolen money.
But in short, he didn't share the spoils with Kurosawa at all!
However, Kiba Ryuji was well aware of the reputation of their fang group with the police.
He claims he's innocent, but will the police believe him?
We can't exactly show the team's ledgers to the police, can we?
Isn't that just courting death?
Besides, if he did that, how would he survive in the underworld?
Even if we assume he actually did that, the police would probably only suspect that there's something wrong with the ledgers.
Damn it!
Who did all this?!
……
"Achoo!"
Xu Yuan sneezed and rubbed his nose.
"Some people are talking about you, Lord Xu Yuan," said Shinji Kamiya.
Xu Yuan asked in surprise, "Does Japan have this saying too?"
"Yes, there is." Shin Kamiya nodded. "Sneezing means someone is talking about you behind your back, although there's no scientific basis for that."
"Maybe someone is thinking about me," Xu Yuan said casually.
In the past few days, news reports have been full of stories about "Lion Fang" Kurosawa Sho being arrested by the police.
It caused quite a stir.
Perhaps because the Japanese police are frequently criticized by the public for their low efficiency in handling cases, they are also heavily promoting this case.
No traces were left at the scene.
The incident occurred late at night, and there were no witnesses.
All the residents in the surrounding area said that they had not seen any suspicious people recently.
There was no witness testimony or physical evidence.
They can't even find a suspect.
The claims made by police personnel, as well as experts and commentators who endorse the government, were increasingly exaggerated.
Even their tone of voice and gestures when they spoke were increasingly exaggerated.
It was as if it were a mystery that had remained unsolved for centuries.
Then, they changed the subject, saying that even so, the Japanese police did not give up, but began to check nearby surveillance footage day and night.
We checked each frame one by one.
Finally, they successfully found some clues.
Then, following the clues, they quickly identified the culprit and decisively launched a swift and decisive attack.
They captured "Lion Fang" Kurosawa Sho in one fell swoop!
They successfully found unprocessed physical evidence in his home!
"Congratulations! Congratulations!"
On television, the host clapped with an exaggerated smile.
The experts and audience members present applauded, their faces beaming with satisfaction.
Xu Yuan was somewhat astonished.
The Japanese really like this kind of exaggerated style.
Can't find the suspect?
Are you kidding me?
If the suspect cannot be found, the police will start their investigation by looking for people who have a grudge against the victim.
Especially recently.
They will soon find out about "Shigaya Shin".
Xu Yuan did not want to be monitored or investigated by the police.
Therefore, instead of leaving the police clueless, he deliberately left "clues" and hid those fragments of "clues" in recent surveillance footage.
It points to the scapegoat he had chosen beforehand.
He even prepared temporary tattoos for this.
As for why the "clues" are made so detailed, it's because only hard-won "clues" will be truly believed by the police.
As for the evidence in that Lion Fang's house, it was naturally planted there secretly by him.
The safe's combination was found by Shinji Kamitani.
The soul form is indeed very useful in this regard.
This includes things like checking the locations under surveillance.
However, when placing the physical evidence, Xu Yuan did not put all of the 1.1 million yen in cash he had obtained into it.
Instead, only 3000 million was released.
In addition, there was the watch that I specifically took with me.
It's not that he likes money.
If money could buy system points, Xu Yuan would not hesitate to start robbing the rich to help the poor.
But not.
Money is just a number to him.
That's enough.
He left the 8000 million to make the police turn their attention to the dental team.
It would be best if they fought each other and stirred up the water even more.
But now it seems that's enough?
Xu Yuan went online to check the reactions of the Japanese public.
"here you go!"
"The Japanese police have finally been efficient for once!"
"That's rare! (laughs)"
"The yakuza... they're really unsettling."
"For the first time, I feel like my taxes are actually worthwhile. (laughs)"
"Why don't we just pull that set of teeth together?"
"I heard that's a real yakuza group!"
"Ugh~ How scary~~~"
"Go Japanese police! Kill them all!"
"That's not a good idea, those are police officers, murder is illegal! (laughs)"
"Isn't protecting the public a basic duty of the police?"
"Speaking of which, there are yakuza near my house. Although they're running their businesses peacefully now, I've heard they used to attack people with knives every day. I always feel uneasy whenever I pass by there!"
"Even those who conduct business lawfully are still considered yakuza; they are essentially illegal organizations."
"It's almost 2026, and the fact that yakuza organizations still exist in this era is truly worrying for Japan's future!"
"Japan is doomed! (laughs)"
"Well, don't say that. This time, the police were unusually assertive."
"The whole world is laughing at Japan! (laughs)"
There's been a lot of discussion about it online.
In addition, the Japanese police launched a large-scale publicity campaign.
Xu Yuan felt that even if the police now realized they had arrested the wrong person, they would probably pretend they didn't know.
After all, who would contradict themselves?
"You've completely fooled everyone!" exclaimed Shin Kamiya. "Amazing!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan shook his head slightly.
Perhaps in Shin's view, he was clearing himself of suspicion while also using the police to eliminate the bad guys.
In reality, it was simply because he lacked the ability.
If he were strong enough, he wouldn't need to make a plan at all; he could just pick up his sword and kill the person. The Japanese government would not only dare not say anything, but would also have to actively cover for him.
They don't want to be targeted by the police because they lack the strength.
When you lack the ability, you need someone to take the blame.
"I'm going to practice my sword."
Xu Yuan waved his hand at Shinobu Kamitani: "As for that yakuza organization related to Morikawa Osamu, what was it called again? Oh right, Shinpu Group, and that lawyer, let's deal with them later."
Killing someone is easy; cleaning up their mess is hard.
After all, this is modern society.
Most importantly, Shin Kamiya has a grudge against them.
If the police investigate, he is a suspect.
Xu Yuan didn't want to be targeted by the police.
Therefore, he needs to make a plan first.
Time passed peacefully.
Japan celebrates Christmas and the New Year.
Xu Yuan didn't seem to care much about this.
In Japan, New Year's is celebrated according to the Gregorian calendar.
He is Chinese and doesn't care about this.
They're too lazy to even go to shrines during the New Year.
On the other hand, Shinji Kagaya was sometimes excited and sometimes melancholy, seemingly having many feelings to express.
To Xu Yuan's surprise, the Japanese police actually got into a fight with the dentistry team.
The first big news after the New Year was that the dental gang was wiped out by the police.
The Japanese public was also surprised by this.
When did the police become so assertive?
Although they were surprised, this did not stop the online community from cheering and celebrating.
Many people feel a sense of new beginnings in the new year.
During this time, Xu Yuan received another mission.
Slam Dunk, Rating D.
The base reward plus additional rewards are 100 million yen, 110 points, and 3 bronze treasure chests.
The unboxing results were good.
Surprisingly, I got a green item called Endurance Bracers, which has the effect of slightly slowing down the rate at which stamina is consumed.
The remaining two boxes contain points, totaling 90 points.

"Just another ordinary person, huh?"
Xu Yuan was somewhat unmotivated by the new task.
After all, killing ordinary people is pointless.
However, when he arrived at the destination, he was slightly taken aback.
A man and a woman were standing there, looking around with great curiosity.
Xu Yuan's gaze fell on the man.
The man also looked at him.
His gaze was gentle as he smiled and said, "Um... I am Hisumura Kenshin. This does not seem to be the world I live in."
