Chapter 127 The Politician Who Burns Himself

Time went by in a blink of an eye and it was 5 a.m. the next day.

And the location... was at the Metropolitan Police Department.

Shigehiko Tōguchi died, just a few minutes ago.

The villa was destroyed by the fire, and the firefighters only dragged out one charred body, including Shigehiko Tōguchi.

How should I put it? Tono Ning had expected this.

Shigehiko Tōguchi was also mentally prepared, otherwise it would not be one but several bodies that were dragged out.

The things that needed to be talked about were already said on the way to the villa.

Shigehiko Tōguchi believed that the organization would not give up, and insisted on choosing to end this line of events with his own death, and give his family a peaceful and worry-free life.

Before Tono Ning got off the car and left, Shigehiko Tōguchi said this: "Officer Tono, let's stop here, and wait until you are strong enough to investigate. I'm sorry that I can't provide you with information, and I'm sorry that I can't give you a definite reward for your help."

However, even though he said that, Tono Ning was still a little silent when he actually received the news that the other party had died.

Seeing Megure Jusan coming back from outside the office, he knocked on the table, "Inspector, are all the colleagues who were arranged to protect the family of Councillor Tunkou in place?"

Megure Jusan nodded, "It should be almost done. The police in Nara have already found someone. Don't worry."

"Well..." Higashino Ning rubbed his fingers, "When will the follow-up investigation begin?"

Megure Jusan couldn't help yawning, "Inspector Yuminaga just called and said that the fire should have been set by Councillor Tunkou himself."

"The on-site investigation supports this conclusion, and the servants in Councillor Tunkou's home can also testify that it was indeed Councillor Tunkou who forcibly dismissed them immediately after returning home."

First suicide, then self-immolation.

Higashino Ning didn't understand whether Megure Jusan really had no doubts, or if he realized something was wrong and decided to stop the investigation.

In terms of rationality, it should be the latter.

But judging from his daily performance, the possibility of the former is extremely high.

Higashino Ning is now following his boss anyway.

He has no intention of conducting a follow-up in-depth investigation, and this matter should really end here.

"Okay, brother Higashino, go back. You still have a day off today. You can come back tomorrow."

Megure Jusan yawned, "The current investigation results support self-immolation. The family of Councillor Tunkou will be protected for a month."

"The dispute between President Masuyama and Councillor Tunkou still needs to be investigated. It is estimated that it will be a very long process. You don't need to spend time following up. Let others do it."

"As for the death of President Masuyama, it has now been closed as suicide. Remember to do the case file when you come back tomorrow."

After listening, Higashino Ning slowly got up, "Okay, I know."

Go home to catch up on sleep and look forward to a promotion.

He will soon be promoted to police captain.

By the way, where should he go after being promoted to police captain?

The position of police captain in the first investigation section is full, and Megure Jusan has not made any mistakes in his work, and there is no room for promotion for others.

Will he have to transfer to other places at that time?

Hangashino Ning can only wait for the results now.

Returning to the comfortable bed again, he woke up Haibara Ai again.

The little girl wanted to ask him why he ran out in the middle of the night, but Dong Ye Ning asked him to go back and take a nap and wait until dawn.

A lot of information was quite explosive. Now it was not only delayed by Huiyuan Ai's sleep, but also delayed Dong Ye Ning's own sleep.

...

It was a little after one o'clock in the afternoon.

Huiyuan Ai couldn't suppress her curiosity, and was also worried that Dong Ye Ning was sleeping in the room.

So she chose to force her way into Dong Ye Ning's room.

She didn't use brute force, because Dong Ye Ning didn't lock the door either.

Pushing the door open, Huiyuan Ai couldn't help pinching her nose.

The air in this room is so turbid... It feels like the oxygen content is a bit low.

She saw that Dong Ye Ning's stomach was still rising and falling, and her heart was completely relieved.

She walked to the window and opened the window a little for ventilation.

Yesterday's heavy snow accumulated all over the city, and today's sun is still working hard to remove the snow.

The cold fresh air rushed into the room, as if it had found the target at once and swept over Dong Ye Ning.

5 minutes later.

Dong Ye Ning sat on the bedside, rubbing his messy hair.

He was not thinking about anything, but his head was a little confused.

Seeing that he was still confused, Huiyuan Ai had to go forward and pull his hand, and then said in a sweet voice, "Hey... It's time to get up, idiot~"

I didn't expect that the little loli also had the service of waking people up.

Dong Ye Ning pulled the quilt away.

Huiyuan Ai dodged subconsciously, and she instinctively thought that Dong Ye Ning was going to pull her into the quilt.

But she really overestimated Dong Ye Ning.

This coward just wanted to stretch.

There was a crackling sound on his body, and his muscles were fully stretched, which was very refreshing.

"You should take care of your personal hygiene first, and then go downstairs to eat."

Seeing that Dong Ye Ning's eyes were still a little confused, Huiyuan Ai simply assigned tasks to this idiot.

Dong Ye Ning was also very obedient and did it directly.

The bath that he didn't take last night must be taken now, Huiyuan Ai gave an order.

After walking out of the bathroom, the sloppy Dong Ye Ning turned into a handsome guy again.

The lunch was very rich.

However, Huiyuan Ai had already eaten earlier, and now she sat opposite and watched Dong Ye Ning eat.

She didn't say anything, just watched quietly, with a satisfied look in her eyes.

Dong Ye Ning thought that he was free anyway, so he simply started to explain the case.

"Let me tell you the conclusion first. Kenzo Masuyama is dead."

"Yeah, I know. It's already been reported in today's news."

"Shigehiko Tsuguchi also died last night."

"Yeah, I know that too. The news of their deaths is on the same page, and the story is connected."

Ai Haibara blinked, "And there's one more thing."

"What's that?" Tono Ning showed off a mouthful of abalone porridge.

The little girl supported her chin with both hands, and her little feet under the table swayed around, "You may become the fastest person to be promoted to police chief in history."

Huh?

Tono Ning was stunned. Is the beloved concubine so efficient?

Ai Haibara continued, "Today, the House of Representatives said that they received a fax from Senator Tsuguchi last night."

"In short, Senator Tsuguchi said that he would use the toughest attitude to promote you to police chief, in order to express his willingness to fight against those political opponents who intend to obstruct the implementation of the amendment or even want to murder him."

Tono Ning couldn't help but put down the spoon.

Hiss~ Shigehiko Tsuguchi is too much of a troublemaker. He threw all the dirty water on his political enemies before he died?

This willingness to serve the organization is simple, pure and flawless!

Gin, watch this, even if I die, I will never blame you, and I will not expose the organization's information.

I don't know if Gin will slap himself twice and say "I deserve to die" when he sees the news today.

However... it seems that the reward of the beloved concubine will now be realized through the fax of Shigehiko Tunkou.

Shigehiko Tunkou spoke, and the beloved concubine took the opportunity to make things happen.

This politician really burned himself until the end of his life.

And this time he really died for the people and for the light.

No wonder the other party said last night that "there is no way to give a definite reward". This move is also his last gamble, and he is not sure whether it can succeed.

Alas... promotion.

But it seems that he is not so happy.

Dong Ye Ning picked up the spoon again, "Then I wonder if you know about this matter."

The little loli tilted her head, "Huh? What's the matter?"

"Conan is Kudo Shinichi." Dong Ye Ning stared into the eyes of Huihara Ai, "Do you know?"
