179 Chapter 179: The End of the Battle
Senichi arrested Kenzo Masuyama, but he was assassinated at the door.
In the final struggle, both sides returned to a stalemate.
Due to his mistaken judgment of the enemy's understanding of himself, he failed to anticipate the enemy's actions, resulting in this defeat.
It was like he wanted to catch the opponent off guard, but the enemy was well-prepared and sacrificed only one pawn to neutralize Senichi's offensive.
Although the reason for the failure was ironic, as it showed the terrifying ability of the enemy to gather information, it also revealed the extent of their knowledge about him.
It's worth noting that Senichi's ability had never been publicized. His excuse for refusing publicity was that he didn't want potential criminals to be aware of this information and be prepared.
Therefore, this information was only circulated within a small circle. However, it was unexpected that the Black Organization had obtained this information.
As a newcomer who had just started to make a name for himself, he unexpectedly drew the attention of the Black Organization?
Senichi felt a bit intimidated by the fact that the Black Organization knew so much about a small police officer like him, and he realized that he needed to prioritize stability and caution.
While being wary, this incident revealed a lot from behind the scenes.
Although he had recently become a prominent figure at the Metropolitan Police Department, he couldn't understand why he caught the attention of the Black Organization.
He even suspected that there might be members of the Black Organization infiltrating the Metropolitan Police Department, providing them with information about excellent detectives to facilitate their activities in Japan.
Furthermore, the disappearance of the Miyano sisters had prompted the Black Organization to launch a large-scale investigation, and naturally, he, as a standout figure, was among those being investigated.
Of course, it was also possible that both situations were true.
Even the information might have been passed on by Tooru Amuro(Bourbon).
After all, his own information was not top-secret, and with enough determination to investigate, it would be known sooner or later. It was not something he would worry about.
Tooru Amuro's situation meant that he wouldn't be too concerned about exposing low-priority information. It was a matter of priorities.
After all, if he couldn't handle such trivial matters smoothly and hesitated, he would probably have been exposed long ago.
He had always relied on his foresight of the plot to have the upper hand, but he didn't expect to witness the formidable nature of the Black Organization in their second confrontation.
This made Senichi vigilant and silently reminded himself not to underestimate the enemy and not to rely too heavily on his knowledge of the plot.
Because his appearance had already caused many changes, and as someone who had entered the Black Organization's radar as a "famous police detective," he would often cause them to change their course of action.
Just like this time, it was originally Gin who was supposed to personally silence Kenzo Masuyama, but because Senichi appeared at the crime scene, their plans changed.
Knowing that Kenzo Masuyama would be captured soon, they altered their original plan and called in a sniper to eliminate him.
This was a response; whenever Senichi appeared openly, the enemy would take corresponding precautions and change their own actions.
Therefore, in future confrontations, Senichi had to consider how his presence would affect the Black Organization's reaction and plan accordingly.
Kenzo Masuyama was assassinated immediately after leaving the hotel's entrance, causing a major uproar. Inspector Megure and Senichi, along with the police officers, managed to maintain order at the hotel entrance and calm the chaos.
Kenzo Masuyama's body was quickly taken away, and the enraged police force began investigating the sniper's location, hoping to find some clues.
But Senichi knew that all their efforts would be in vain. Since the Black Organization dared to take action, it meant that everything had been meticulously planned, and no clues would be left behind.
Kenzo Masuyama's death drew widespread attention in society, and the news was dominated by this event that day.
After all, Kenzo Masuyama, as an executive of an automobile company, personally assassinated a corrupt politician involved in embezzlement, which was quite intriguing.
The police were also investigating the connection between the two sides, but the outcome was destined to be fruitless.
And Senichi received a reward from the system for his actions.
[Confrontation with the Black Organization: The Death of Kenzo Masuyama]
[Completion: Average]
[Congratulations to the host for gaining 200 Fate Points.]
[Evaluation: The error in intelligence resulted in a missed opportunity in the confrontation. Although the process was different, the outcome was not significantly different from before.]
Perhaps because this case is related to the main storyline, not only did it have an average completion rating for the first time, but it also received an evaluation.
Although the evaluation was just average...
Nevertheless, Senichi was not too disappointed because the information and reminders he obtained were priceless and couldn't be exchanged for any reward.
If it weren't for this incident, he wouldn't have known that he had already caught the attention of the Black Organization.
This time, he was fortunate enough. The price paid for this information was paid by Kenzo Masuyama with his life.
If this information had been exposed in another confrontation, it might have cost Senichi his own life.
Unfortunately, some losses are inevitable, but the firsthand experience of the Black Organization's modus operandi is also invaluable.
......
Snowflakes continued to drift in the sky, swayed by the air currents. The white snowflakes seemed somewhat solemn against the backdrop of the murder case.
Inside the black Porsche, Vodka drove the car while expressing his confusion, "Boss, don't we need to continue looking for the person who planted the bug in the car? Isn't it very likely that they are the mysterious organization that saved the Miyano sisters?"
"Well, I do have that speculation," replied Gin, smoking a cigarette and sitting in the passenger seat. A hint of wariness flickered in his eyes hidden within the smoke.
"The members of that mysterious organization have been hiding in the shadows from beginning to end, skillfully using those detectives as pawns to engage with us. They have hidden themselves very deeply, which is evident from the sudden disappearance of the Miyano sisters without any signs."
"I'm afraid this time, they obtained information from the Miyano sisters and then put in the effort to find us."
As he said this, a cold and wary look flashed across Gin's face, followed by a cold laugh. "Guys like them would immediately retreat if their first strike failed. They wouldn't leave any clues for us to investigate, even if there are any, it's probably a trap."
"That's true, they are a formidable opponent..."
