Chapter: 2368

As a smart person, he generally avoids such sensational cases.

Because breaking up a case like this would certainly be very prestigious, but if he failed, it would undoubtedly disappoint the entire nation.

Suzuki Tomohiro had relied on his steady and stable approach for many years, accumulating experience, successful cases, and his own fame.

So, he likes to take on some challenging tasks that aren't too high-stakes or difficult.

Tasks like this one, which are extremely challenging and difficult, he doesn't want to get involved in at all.

Because it's only thanks to his steady and stable approach that he was able to make progress over the years and accumulate experience, successful cases, and his own fame.

This way, he can achieve a sense of accomplishment and receive the admiration of the entire nation.

Currently, this extremely difficult task, if completed, would undoubtedly propel him forward by a big step.

But if it's not completed, it will also make all the stable and steady progress he made over the years and the status he has acquired go down the drain.

This is like someone who has already won a lot of money and wants to play just one more hand before leaving with their winnings.

However, the house owner insists on making him bet one last hand of Mahjong, putting all his previous winnings at stake.

Only an idiot would agree to do something like that.

But Suzuki Tomohiro simply had no way out.

In the end, he was working in the national security department, so at the bottom line, he was a government official. The Japanese government made him do what they wanted, and he had no bargaining power.

Now, it's up to someone else to decide his future trajectory - a foreign woman he has never met before.

He only knows that this woman is called Suo Ruo Li, and she is the main culprit behind the murder of the Matsumoto family. As long as he can catch her, he will be celebrated throughout Japan; but if he cannot catch her, he will disappoint the Japanese people and become a criminal in their eyes.

As for where this Suo Ruo Li was, whether she's still alive or not, he has absolutely no leads whatsoever.

Even if he doesn't find Suo Ruo Li, at least he needs to figure out how she managed to slip away unnoticed by everyone else.

Now, that substitute has already died from poisoning, and several people responsible for transporting her have also gone missing without explanation. The police station literally can't find any valuable leads.

Just when he was scratching his head, not knowing what to do first, his assistant pushed open the door and said awkwardly: "Mr. Suzuki, many journalists from outside have come. Not just our domestic NHK and Asahi News, but also top international media including BBC and CNN. They all want to interview you."

"What? Interview me?" Suzuki Tomohiro said with a black face: "I've just taken office. What's there to interview?"

His assistant opened his mouth: "They want to know the progress of the Suo Ruo Li missing persons case"

"Ah, what a hassle! Just when I'm in charge of this critical case, nothing good ever happens. This case has such great influence that not only are all national people paying attention, but even overseas media is paying attention. If I don't handle it well, my reputation will be ruined, darn it!"

He thought to himself as he rubbed his temples, feeling anxious and uneasy.

Just then, his phone suddenly rang. JrNovels.com
