- Let's get down here - I point to a small shopping plaza.
-Is this where you wanted to come? Because if so I know better places to go - Take a look.
-Could you stop being a rich man for a few minutes? -
- Okay, come on. What's the plan? -
- I guess you will not leave your guard so I will have to cooperate -
- Filip, come down, you will go with us -
- Understood Mr. Nowaki -
We both got out of the car trying to go unnoticed even though it wasn't exactly what we imagined. Well, when people saw me they were amazed and began to whisper among themselves in fear.
Young Misaki's plan was simply to eliminate all the stares that haunted us from afar by walking into a conventional low-cost clothing store, not to mention the splendid fifty percent off clothing.
I left my suit, my watch and even my shoes to wear a misaligned pants, loose shirt with the legend "I am cool" all this to pass the time.
We walked through a square, ate pizza, ice cream, went to entertainment rooms, went to the movies. Things I had never done in my life and less with a co-worker.
Since all this could be had at home without having to go out and even with better condition and quality.
Suddenly my cell phone started ringing.
-Satoru? Where the hell are you - Answer the voice of an annoyed dad.
- You won't imagine where I am! - Talk- Never imagine how curious it is to get out of the wealthy routine -
-I asked you to investigate the case! -
- Dad, relax a bit, I'm a little close to the station. What happened? -
- A new victim appeared, was found near the theater "Arsel" the forensic department is there -
- I'm somewhat close, I'll be here in 5 minutes- Hang up the phone to dial Filip.
-Filip, we're going-
- Understood sir-
Misaki without understanding approached me curiously.
- Has something bad happened? -
- In the car I'll explain you, get on -
With the car running I started to try to explain the situation to Misaki. To which the report that he had received by e-mail the body was fresh but lifeless, it was a twenty-nine-year-old woman. The body had mutilations of which we had known until now.
Although our researchers were in suspicion that it was a fight between couples that ended badly.
Something that of course was misclassified due to the events that were happening.
Arriving at the scene, the crowd of people was enraged, throwing stones and trash at everything that was on the road.
We got out of the car between shoves and bad words, Misaki on the other hand was accompanied by shoves and shouts of "traitor" due to his place of origin.
Entering the barricade of police officers who were stopping such a problem
, we entered the alley where forensic personnel were doing their job poorly done as always.
- Good thing you arrived - A man approached in a white suit of forensic- Nice to meet Itachi Shida -
- Nice to meet you, Nowaki Satoru - Reverence.
- A pleasure Hiroki Misaki - Reverence.
- Veran, the victim is Tanaka Ritsu, apparently she lived in the nearby Communal building, she was in a somewhat complicated relationship ...-
- Complicated? -
- It was a frowned upon relationship, his partner was apparently another woman -
- Oh I understand -
"Is there something wrong with the case?" - Jump Misaki.
- Not at all Mr. Misaki, it's just that these situations are frowned upon by the whole country - Threat- I suppose it will be a somewhat difficult case-
- Anyway give me the details you have so far - Comment feeling somewhat uncomfortable by the tension between those two.
- Returning to the case, Itachi Ritsu had this mobile in his hand - He pointed to the cell phone inside the bag of evidence turning it on - We have reviewed all the records of the mobile and apparently he was only in contact with another girl, apparently his partner, this is the most Shocking, the number belongs to the famous Idol Hinata Tori, we have already contacted her manager to request an interview and ask her the routine questions regarding her relationship with the victim -
- Sounds good to me, let me take a look at the corpse - Misaki pointed out.
- That's impossible - Itachi smiled - I think you were not notified Mr. Misaki but we have received orders from superiors, you are out of this case -
- That? It's a joke, right? What is this about? - Annoyed yell.
- Orders are orders Mr. Misaki, if you don't mind I'll leave -
-What was all this Satoru? -
- Wait here, I'll talk to dad, I'll ask for an explanation of your sudden expulsion -
- Okay, I'll wait in the car -
I walked thinking about the sudden situation I was in and the due expulsion of Misaki. Wasn't he one of the best? Why the suspension?
I met papa with some police officers and forensic officers.
- Allow me a moment - I point to come towards me - Where were you? -
- Finish my work, it's bad to go out -
-Get out? Is seriously ? With everything I leave in your hands? -
- What is this about ? I always comply with everything you ask of me, we advance more than ever in your investigation, investigation in which none of your stupid forensics or intelligent agents had been able to find any indication of anything, all the reports were on your table and e-mail Is it a joke? -
- Don't be talking to me like that Satoru, I'm your father! -
- If that is clear to me, you only care how much you can squeeze out of people -
- Let's talk about this later, I want the report on my desk in thirty minutes -
-That? Come on, the only thing that worries you is your work-
- My job ? I am concerned about our country, when you are in charge you will know what it is to carry the lives of thousands of families on your shoulders -
- If you were worried, why expel Misaki from the case? Isn't it a fundamental part? -
- So this is all due, I should have known -
-Know what!-
- See what has turned you into just one miserable day, wearing those tattered and faded clothes.It's a lack of respect for your dynasty! -
- Is that what worries you? How do I see? -
-I'm worried about you becoming Satoru, now go back to the office, Misaki is still out of the case -
- At least give me an explanation why -
- I will not allow a person to turn my son into this, now if you don't mind I have business to attend to - I walk turning my back.
-Dad!-
Annoyed I walked among the people yelling nonsense at me until I reached the car where I found Misaki with a black eye.
- What is this? What happened here Filip? -
- Sir, a guy from the crowd pounced on Mr. Misaki and hit his face, an apology -
- Misaki-
- I'm fine, just leave me anywhere -
- None of that we will go to the office, Filip walking -
-Got it sir-
- Satoru I don't want to be a burden for you-
- Misaki the fact that you do not come from the same absurd empire that I come from will not make you better or worse than me -
All the way, Misaki didn't say a word to me. Take the time to review the files.
Everything was so badly worded, although inside I was too curious about such a suspension for no apparent reason. Take my cell phone by texting Filip.
I wanted explanations of everything, motive, reason, circumstance. All.
I knew that my father was not going to make it easy for me, he will try to hide the most important of all this as always.
I received the e-mail from Hinata Tori, asking me for the most favorable discretion and that this issue not come to light since her apparent relationship with the victim could be more terrible for her career that was on the cusp of fame.
I got in touch with her manager scheduling an appointment with her as soon as possible, this was more suspicious than anything and sooner or later the world was going to find out about all this.
I came up with a thousand ideas ignoring everything around me, blocking sounds, trying to find those lost threads of the case.
Notice through the tinted windows, the building was full of reporters, people with banners, demanding justice for Tanaka Ritsu and all the previous victims.
in each one of them . People began to pounce on the car hitting the windows.
To which he implied that the information had been leaked to the television media, to which I was almost certain that someone from the coroner was doing the dirty work.
Worst of all, social networks were already full of false information about the victim and the idol of the moment. The investigation was spiraling out of control, my father's power was slipping away, the traitors were within us, now the big question Who is the traitor?
My list is already full of suspects starting with those who handled the corpse of the victim.
Itachi's mobile was restricted to only four people who had access to information that until a few minutes ago was completely confidential.
I asked for access to the coroner's information regarding her employees, the investigation had now become public.
"Sir, I'll try to evacuate him from the back of the building," Filip pointed out.
-Just take us- Ignore.
How could Filip dodge all those people and all the reporters who were roaring for fresh information as if it were a red carpet.
- Come on Misaki, we don't have much time, at any moment those vultures will come - Take my laptop.
- I am out of the investigation Satoru, there is no point that I am here -
- What does it matter, you have a black eye, you have to attend to this, take it as a thank you -
I walked to the elevator in silence, my head was cluttered with possible connections, I had min suspects in mind. We had a long list of candidates, but none of them found a 100 percent profile.
Hinata's manager was already in my office, furious.
-What is this Mr. Nowaki? I remember asking for complete discretion at the time this was known - Hinata's Manager highlighted.
- Mr. Chung an apology but the leak is out of my hands at the moment, the situation on the case is getting out of control, we fear that there is a person who is betraying the headquarters -
-Betraying? What do we care about that! I want Hinata Tori's name to be left out of all this! -
- I'm sorry Mr. Chung but the team is doing everything possible to solve this case, I beg you to be patient about what is happening, Miss Tori is not the only one who is getting damaged in all this there are many more victims in all this , to which it is worth mentioning that I cannot let Miss Tori go unpunished -Sign out- She is involved in this more than any other victim due to her relationship with the victim so please take doing there are things that we must talk about -
-But my client is an idol, the celebrity of the moment! This will stain Tori's career, tell me Mr. Nowaki How much do you want? - I take out a checkbook- Right now I am writing you a check, ask me for the amount we have to pay it -
- Mr. Chung, I do not know what people you deal with, but let me tell you that compared to my father I am someone who does not sell for money, I really want to solve this case, not for Miss Tori believe me, there are people out there asking for justice For the other innocent victims who have been dying at the hands of a person that until now we have no knowledge, I am not the same as my father, so save your checks if you do not want me to file charges of bribery with a higher authority at this time-
-But this! Do you know who you're messing with?
- Mr. Chung enough already! - Jumping from the chair Hinata Tori - Mister Nowaki, excuse my manager is a very overprotective person-Reverence- A pleasure Hinata Tori, I will cooperate with all the investigation-
- Miss Tori, a pleasure, ignoring everything that happened, I want to go on to the subject of the case in which you are involved at this moment, if you do not mind we will go on to some routine questions. Do you think this time it is just you and me? -
-But who do you think you are? - Mr. Chung was exalted.
- Mr. Chung how will you know this is a process we only need your lawyer present, you can wait outside in the living room, you cannot give any interview to the media at this time, any act or false information that you provide in the following minutes from Your social media sources will be paralyzed and make you a possible suspect -
