Chapter 409: Chapter 363: Don’t Make Things Difficult for Me, Let’s Be Convenient for Each Other_2

"I only made some trivial mistakes, the stress of work is so great that I inevitably need to vent! Only by doing so can I avoid bringing personal emotions into my job and serve the citizens better. I may have killed five people, but haven’t I served way more than fifty thousand people? I hope Mr. Aoyama can understand."

"Manager Du Bian, do you think I came here to arrest you?" Aoyama Xiu Xin asked seriously.

Du Bian smiled ambiguously, not giving a clear answer. Initially, he indeed thought so, but now he felt that the other party had only come to blackmail him.

Though relieved, he nonetheless looked down upon Aoyama Xiu Xin’s unsightly greed.

Aoyama Xiu Xin also smiled, picked up two gold bars and knocked them together, the sound crystal clear to the ear. He closed his eyes and showed a look of indulgence, saying carelessly, "Firstly, who am I? Heisei’s No.1 Detective, unmatched in solving cases. I won’t allow anyone to break my myth; secondly, I killed Tanaka to let so many people rest easy. If I were to arrest Manager Du Bian, wouldn’t that stir unease amongst them again? So why would I arrest you? I won’t arrest you!"

Hearing this, Du Bian’s face changed gradually and his eyes filled with panic. He suddenly got up, rushed behind the desk, pulled open a drawer, grabbed a pistol, loaded it, and aimed it at Aoyama Xiu Xin, "You want to kill me? Dream on!"

The meaning behind Aoyama Xiu Xin’s words was clear—he did not tolerate any disruption to his persona. The five female bodies had to be Du Bian’s responsibility, yet he could not be arrested as it would unsettle others; thus, the only choice left was one.

Du Bian had to die.

His death could legally account for the demise of those five women and not provoke the nerves of other high-ranking officials who had accepted sexual bribes from Tanaka Guikuma.

"Calm down, Manager Du Bian, you haven’t even disabled the safety, so you can’t kill anyone," Aoyama Xiu Xin glanced at him and smiled, pointing at the gun in his hand.

Upon hearing these words, Du Bian frantically unlocked the safety and roared with fierce determination, "I’ll tell you, Aoyama Xiu Xin, I won’t be butchered like Tanaka Guikuma! Who do you think you are? Those country bumpkins call you ’detective’ and you get intoxicated with yourself, losing your sense of self? You know exactly how much fluff is in your 100% case-solving rate! And fuck, you even have the burden of being an idol. Go to hell!"

"What’s the difference between you and me? It’s simply that my deeds have come to light, while the dirty things you’ve done still haven’t been exposed! What right do you have to put on airs in front of me? You really think you’re the detective, huh?"

The so-called empowerment of having a lethal weapon made him suddenly bold.

"What I think is not important, what matters is what others think, and clearly, everyone believes I am the detective, so I am, and therefore I can’t let them down," Aoyama Xiu Xin remained calm and collected despite the other party’s disrespect.

As he finished speaking, he stood up.

"Don’t move!" Du Bian yelled nervously, stepping back, his breathing rushed as he said, "Stay right there, don’t move, or I swear I’ll take you down with me!"

"You can tell you’ve never killed anyone before, your gun hand is shaking so violently, even this close, you probably won’t hit me," Aoyama Xiu Xin casually critiqued his gun-holding posture, ignoring his threats and stepping in front of the desk, smiling as he picked up a family portrait on the table and said, "Manager Du Bian, truly a happy family of three. Your daughter is very cute, why didn’t I see her earlier? I have a liking for young girls."

"You idiot!" Du Bian, projecting his own thoughts, exploded in rage, his teeth chattering, "Aoyama Xiu Xin, you beast! Don’t you dare lay a finger on my daughter! She’s only fifteen! If you touch her, I will never forgive you!"

"Manager Du Bian is quite the hypocrite, aren’t you? Were any of those five dead girls fifteen?" Aoyama Xiu Xin shook his head and, touching the little girl’s face in the photograph, murmured to himself, "Such a beautiful wife and adorable daughter, it would truly be regrettable if anything were to happen to them."

"Enough! Don’t touch my family!" Du Bian shouted, tears streaming down his face, his hand holding the gun trembling nonstop, "I beg you, please don’t touch my family!"

Aoyama Xiu Xin turned his back to him, "Then Manager Du Bian, don’t make it difficult for me. Let’s make it convenient for each other."

Du Bian took a couple of deep breaths and slowly put down the gun in his hand, then turned and walked toward the balcony of the study.

"Clang!"

A heavy thud sounded from behind.

Aoyama Xiu Xin set down the photo album and strode out the door.

Mrs. Du Bian and numerous police officers, who had been in the living room, were now in the yard. As Aoyama Xiu Xin emerged, he saw Mrs. Du Bian draped over Du Bian’s corpse, wailing loudly with tears streaming down her face, her voice hoarse with grief.

"Alas, I did not expect Manager Du Bian to commit suicide out of fear of his crimes. Please accept my condolences, Mrs. Du Bian," said the kind-hearted Aoyama Xiu Xin as he stepped forward to gently comfort her.

Mrs. Du Bian suddenly looked up with a venomous glare fixated on Aoyama Xiu Xin, as if she wished she could devour him.

"Slap!"

Aoyama Xiu Xin raised his hand and slapped her across the face.

He sent her tumbling onto Du Bian’s corpse with such force that when her hand scraped the ground to brace herself, it also became skinned.

"Damn, you think I won’t hit a woman," Aoyama Xiu Xin said as he shook his hand and walked away without looking back, lightly adding, "Take Du Bian’s corpse and fall back."

"Aye!"

"Don’t touch my husband! Let go, sob..."

Amidst Mrs. Du Bian’s heart-wrenching cries, the police forcibly dragged her away and carried off Du Bian’s body.

She was left sitting alone in the villa’s yard, heartbroken and sobbing softly.

The police cars at the gate blared their sirens as they drove off into the distance.

That afternoon, Police Headquarters Supervisor Renping Kuniaki faced reporters and disclosed more details about the case.

For instance, numerous local political figures in Osaka Prefecture were recipients of sexual bribery from Tanaka Guikuma; Tanaka Guikuma had arranged for members of the Violent Gang to attack police officers at the Police Headquarters the previous night; and Bank Manager Du Bian had also taken bribes from Tanaka Guikuma, being the one responsible for the deaths of the five women, and had now committed suicide out of fear of his crimes.

The evening news covered everything, and it was only then that the public learned of the multiple events that had unfolded the night before.

The news lambasted the beastly actions of Tanaka Guikuma and others, while simultaneously praising Aoyama Xiu Xin as a paragon of justice who stood firm even when the case involved so many officials.

Their goodness, however, limited their imagination.

These ordinary people had no idea how corrupt the high-ranking bureaucrats could be, nor could they fathom that the case, which had shocked the nation, was merely the result of making a mountain out of a molehill, with some individuals still evading justice.

While the clamor of public opinion swirled, the justice defender Aoyama Xiu Xin was on his way to pay a visit to Yanchuan Xianyou’s house; after successfully completing his task, it was time to report in.
