The Strongest Detective

Chief of the Investigation Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

A detective who has risen from the field is appointed to this position.

Yoshihide Takamori was appointed to this post this year.

He is my father.

This time, I would like to tell you the story of how he was called the “Monster of Souichi”.

“Hey, did you see the new appointment?”

“Oh, it’s Inspector Takamori, isn’t it? He’s the chief of the First Investigation Section at his age, isn’t he?”

The chief of the First Investigation Section is appointed by a detective who has been working his way up the ranks.

The age of the chief is usually higher than that of the other career chiefs.

However, my father is 40 years old this year.

He is exceptionally young to be appointed chief of the First Investigation Division.

That’s why he was appointed because of his track record of solving numerous cases.

With Yoshihide Takamori, any difficult case can be solved.

It was a well-known story within the Metropolitan Police Department.

Just the other day, it was the same.

A series of high school girls were strangled to death.

My father was ordered to lead the investigation as the superintendent of the case, which was said to be on the verge of going cold.

My father brought the case to a close in two weeks, and the murderer was arrested.

“Director, I think you should get some sleep. You haven’t slept in three days.”

“I’m not going to die if I don’t sleep. But the next victim might appear if I don’t arrest the culprit. I don’t want to add more people to the list who have to bear the grief. Compared to that, I don’t give a damn about sleep.”

Indeed, his obsession with the investigation is a demon.

It seems that he is called that because he cuts through incidents with its sharp fangs.

“Deputy Commissioner, isn’t it too early to make him a section chief?”

There were such voices within the Criminal Investigation Department.

The main one was from the chief of the Criminal Investigation Department.

“It is true that he has played a leading role in solving quite a few cases, but he is only 40 years old. Isn’t that too young?”

The deputy superintendent of police suppressed this voice and made Yoshihide Takamori the chief of the Investigation Section.

He is the number two man in the Metropolitan Police Department.

“Do you know when he started saying he would definitely raise a hoshi?”

He always says, ‘I’m going to raise a hoshi.’

“No. ……”

“It was ten years ago. Did you know how his wife died?”

“Yes, I heard it was a car accident.”

“Well, ostensibly.”

The deputy commissioner sat deeper into the sofa.

“Ostensibly, you say?”

“It was a hit-and-run.”

Ryo’s mother, Saya Takamori, was not killed instantly.

She was still conscious when she was hit.

If she had called an ambulance right then and there, there was a chance she might have survived.

However, the criminal, who had been drinking, left the scene without calling 911.

“The investigative file didn’t say anything about that, did it?”

“The man driving the car was the son of a powerful politician and pressure was brought down from above to cover it up.”

There are a certain number of people who will try to get out of a situation with money and power.

“Did the commissioner give in to that?”

The current commissioner is a man who is trying to clean up the dirty parts of such an organization.

“I don’t think he’s the kind of person who would do that.”

“But back then, the top brass was different.”

“I see.”

“That’s when he changed.”

Victims can only move on when they know the truth.

It is our job to help them do so.

That’s why he always mentioned Hoshi.

“He may be called a monster, but he knows the pain of victims better than anyone else. I want a guy like that at the top of the department. Understand?”

“I understand.”

“If something happens, I’ll ask you to forgive me with my neck.”

Thus, it was decided that Yoshihide Takamori would be appointed head of the First Investigation Division.
