Hokkaido Police Headquarters.
Inside the newly renovated Director’s office.
Three subordinates who had co to Hokkaido with Zhongshan Juni were scanning every corner with their devices.
ticulous, professional.
"Inspector General, no listening devices or caras have been found," one of them reported after the inspection.
Zhongshan Juni waved her hand, and the three packed their handheld devices into their briefcases and left.
Considering that Zhongshan Juni would be using this office for an extended period, it was certain that a counter-surveillance check would be done before moving in, and it would be inspected regularly. Therefore, Aoyama Xiu Xin did not have listening devices installed.
To avoid having the surveillance used against him by the enemy.
Zhongshan Juni walked to the desk and, with a hand gently touching the pristine solid wood surface, spoke with a slightly mocking tone, "It seems Aoyama Xiu Xin still has so restraint, not switching his office with mine."
The layout of the office remained as it was during Fujimoto Takayoshi’s ti, only his personal items had been removed.
Iron-clad offices, water-like Directors.
No, given Zhongshan Juni’s age, she’s probably past nopause... surely?
"If that were the case, he wouldn’t be recklessly bold but foolish beyond asure," Habamoto Youko pursed her lips, then with a puzzled expression asked, "Auntie, why were you so... to Aoyama Xiu Xin just now?"
She paused, at a loss for the right word to describe it.
"So friendly?" Zhonshan Juni took over her sentence, and upon seeing her nod, sighed, "With the situation now beyond control, I had no choice. Now, with Mitsuo Mutou under his control, all I can do is show weakness, numb him, and plan slowly."
She analyzed the current situation once more.
"But I fear that he might beco relentless and press every advantage," Habamoto Youko expressed worriedly.
Zhongshan Juni shook her head, speaking with utmost certainty, "No, Aoyama Xiu Xin wants to neutralize , not drive away. After all, even if I were to be removed, he wouldn’t be the one to ascend. As long as he believes I am not a threat, he will lower his guard."
She paused for a mont, then looking at Habamoto Youko said, "Originally, your beauty trap was just icing on the cake for , but now it seems it must beco the main strategy in the short term. So Youko, you must work hard and not disappoint ."
She had confidence in her daughter-in-law’s attractiveness.
As long as Aoyama Xiu Xin wasn’t blind, he would surely like her.
"Hey! Please rest assured, Auntie, I will definitely gain Aoyama Xiu Xin’s trust!" Habamoto Youko’s face grew serious as she bowed solemnly, her ample bosom quivering as she bent and rose.
Carrying a heavy responsibility, full of fighting spirit!
Zhongshan Juni smiled in approval, tidying a stray lock of hair behind Habamoto Youko’s ear, "Do your best."
"But Auntie, what about Mr. Uehara and the others?" Habamoto Youko asked sweetly.
"Mr. Uehara and the others" were the other three who had co to Hokkaido with Zhongshan Juni.
Originally, Zhongshan Juni had intended to use her position as a Minister to place these three in key positions for effectiveness.
But now that Zhongshan Juni had decided to show weakness, that obviously was no longer an option.
"I will seek Aoyama Xiu Xin’s opinion and take the initiative to suggest that only one of them stay at Headquarters and the others be sent out to local areas. By giving face and showing goodwill in this way, Aoyama Xiu Xin should show so courtesy in return," Zhongshan Juni’s eyes shimred cunningly.
After pondering for a mont, Habamoto Youko smiled in sudden realization, "I understand. Auntie, you’re not only carrying out the policy of showing weakness, but also allowing those sent to local areas to be away from Aoyama Xiu Xin’s scrutiny, giving them a chance to gather a group of supporters in secret at the local police stations."
Under Aoyama Xiu Xin’s watchful eyes, it would be difficult to win people’s hearts; only by moving out was there a chance.
"Exactly." Zhongshan Juni nodded, showing an approving expression.
"Knock, knock!" A knock at the door sounded, "Director Zhongshan, this is Aoyama Xiu Xin. May I co in?"
Zhongshan Juni and Habamoto Youko exchanged glances.
"Please co in," Zhongshan Juni called out warmly.
Aoyama Xiu Xin entered, bowed with a smile, and said, "Are you satisfied with the office?"
"Very much so. I appreciate the efforts of the colleagues at the Headquarters," Zhongshan Juni responded with a pleasant smile.
"As long as you’re satisfied. If anything is lacking, just let the General Affairs Departnt know," Aoyama Xiu Xin replied, then shifted the topic, "By the way, Mitsuo Mutou has confessed to his cris. I’ve notified the press to announce the case details, and it would be good if you could also appear and say a few words. It would be an excellent opportunity for Hokkaido’s residents to et their new Director."
Mitsuo Mutou was already dood, so when Aoyama Xiu Xin implied that the bla for the attack on Miyashita Hidekatsu would fall solely on him, he agreed imdiately.
This was clearly taking all the credit for himself!
"I don’t think that’ll be necessary. I just arrived today and haven’t contributed anything to this case. It wouldn’t be right for to attend the press conference so prominently. It should be sufficient for Yamashita Deputy Director and Minister Aoyama to take the lead," Zhongshan Juni declined repeatedly upon hearing this.
She could already imagine that by tomorrow, the dia would be all over the story that the Hokkaido Police redeployed forces and closed roads to welco her arrival, which enabled Mitsuo Mutou to escape the cordon and attack Miyashita Hidekatsu.
By then, public sentint would be overwhelmingly against her.
And if at the sa ti, it was reported that she, the instigator, was also attending the press conference announcing Mitsuo Mutou’s confession and punishnt, "blatantly seeking praise," the criticism would only grow louder.
To this, Aoyama Xiu Xin’s smile beca even brighter as he continued to urge warmly, "How could it be seen as minimal contribution? It was thanks to your good fortune, Director, that we were able to capture Mitsuo Mutou so swiftly! Besides, for such a significant case, how could the Director not say a word? If reporters ask about this, I’m afraid I wouldn’t know how to explain it appropriately."
Zhongshan Juni was furious, "What does he an by thanks to my good fortune in capturing Mitsuo Mutou? Bullshit!"
At the sa ti, Zhongshan Juni also sensed the threat within Aoyama Xiu Xin’s words: "If you don’t attend, and a reporter asks why the newly appointed Director isn’t present at the press conference, don’t bla for concocting an excuse."
"Your cordial invitation is hard to refuse, so hard to refuse indeed!" Suppressing the irritation in her heart, Zhongshan Juni forced a smile and said, "Since that’s the case, I will shalessly bask in the light of Minister Aoyama and all my colleagues. What ti is the press conference? I will make sure to be there on ti."
Let them curse. In the end, it doesn’t matter.
The more pitifully she was cursed, the worse her reputation beca, the stronger the effect of showing weakness to the enemy. Enduring this montary humiliation, once she succeeded in cleaning up the Hokkaido Police system, those who cursed her today would be singing her praises!
That was the only consolation she could give herself now.
"In half an hour," Aoyama Xiu Xin glanced at his watch and replied before bowing slightly, "There’s still ti, Director. Rest well, I will take my leave now."
"Minister Aoyama, please wait a mont," he had just turned around when Zhongshan Juni suddenly called out to him.
Aoyama Xiu Xin stopped in his tracks, turned around, and asked puzzledly, "Is there anything else, Director?"
"It wouldn’t be so much an order," Zhongshan Juni said with an unconcerned smile, facing his puzzled look, and spoke gently and softly, "The thing is, I’m not familiar with the departnt here, and as for the three subordinates who ca with , Minister Aoyama, how do you think they should be arranged appropriately?"
"What is the Director thinking?" Aoyama Xiu Xin didn’t answer but threw the question back.
At first, he thought Zhongshan Juni might arrange for the three of them herself given her position, but now that she was asking him, it seed she had no such plans.
"Each of the three are juniors I hold in high regard. I brought them to Hokkaido hoping they could gain experience. Perhaps you could see if there’s a suitable position for one within the departnt, and the other two can be simply assigned to any police station," Zhongshan Juni said with an even tone.
From the mont she alighted from the car, she showed weakness at every turn. Aoyama Xiu Xin couldn’t help but suspect whether Zhongshan Juni intended to peacefully coexist with him, but considering others by his standard, he could not dismiss the possibility that she was aiming to dull his vigilance.
Ah well, there’s always soone who wants to make trouble for !
"Alright then, I will communicate with Deputy Director Yamashita and get their positions settled as soon as possible," Aoyama Xiu Xin replied with a slight smile.
After all, dispersing Zhongshan Juni’s limited usable personnel was a good strategy. As long as he remained vigilant and strengthened surveillance on them, it would be fine.
Zhongshan Juni smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
"It’s a small matter, you’re too polite," Aoyama Xiu Xin bowed slightly and turned to leave.
Zhongshan Juni spoke to her daughter-in-law, who had been silent on the side, "Yangzi, see Minister Aoyama out."
"Yes!" Hashimoto Youko quickly responded. She briskly took a few steps to catch up with Aoyama Xiu Xin, helped him open the door with an arm and bent over to say, "Minister Aoyama, please take care."
As she bent over, the contours of her buttocks strained against her pants, revealing even the lace pattern of her panties, with curves that were so enticing, one could tell their elasticity without even touching them.
Especially with her well-proportioned figure, her thin waist made her plump buttocks even more visually striking, involuntarily making one fantasize about what it would be like to be with her.
Moreover, as she bent over, her pants tightened, causing the legs to pull up slightly, revealing a small section of her leg and ankle wrapped in flesh-colored stockings, inviting endless exploration.
A complete reveal isn’t as enticing as showing just enough to hook soone, right?
"Thank you," Aoyama Xiu Xin quickly glanced at her and then averted his gaze, smiling and striding away.
It was well known that he was a gentleman.
He didn’t like to gaze at beautiful won, preferring other pursuits.
"Scoundrel." Hashimoto Youko pursed her lips at his retreating figure, muttering a low curse.
She could feel the quick sweep of Aoyama Xiu Xin’s gaze over her buttocks, a mont that made her muscles involuntarily tighten, filled with a sense of sha and humiliation as if his eyes had violated her.
But it also precisely proved that Aoyama Xiu Xin was indeed lecherous, and the chances of successfully seducing him were high.
Lechers should pay the price for their own desires!
.........
Half an hour later.
Reporters from various dia outlets gathered at the police headquarters.
Amid applause and flashing caras, a well-dressed Aoyama Xiu Xin walked up to the podium with a head held high.
"First of all, I would like to thank all the reporters for taking ti out of their busy schedules to attend today’s press conference," Aoyama Xiu Xin said, bowing slightly and maintaining the bow for three to four seconds before standing and continuing, "The criminal Mitsuo Mutou, who has perpetuated several shootings, was arrested by the police today during an attempt to shoot Mayor Miyashita Hidekatsu. Facing ironclad evidence, he confessed to his cris without reservation. Fortunately, protected by Amaterasu, Mayor Miyashita is out of life-threatening danger."
"This man’s motive for killing was simply the urge to kill; he is extrely anti-society and anti-humanity, sothing the law cannot tolerate! Severe punishnt awaits him!"
"From today on, all citizens of Sapporo City can be completely at ease, no longer needing to worry about their lives and property being threatened by this evil-doer..."
"I know everyone has many questions they would like to ask the police, so next, please welco Director Zhongshan Juni, who has just taken up her post today, to et everyone and answer questions."
As he said this, he led the applause and turned to look at Zhongshan Juni with a smile.
Old Deng, I’ve finished playing my part.
It’s your turn to co up and make a spectacle of yourself.
"Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap!"
Amid thunderous applause and flash photography like falling snowflakes, Zhongshan Juni gritted her teeth and forced a smile as she walked towards the stage, preparing to face the grilling of the reporters.
In that instant, she suddenly felt a twinge of regret.
She didn’t have to co to Hokkaido.
But it was just a montary feeling, and she quickly fird up her resolve, confidently and composedly stepping onto the stage.
