In order to listen to their speech, Lei Yin sent his internal force into his ears.

“Police officers, you really can’t come in now. Tonight is the birthday party of Ikeyama Togoto. Congressman Fukuda, Executive Director Yokoyama, Congressman Tachibana, and all other high-ranking guests were also there to offer their birthday congratulations. At the same time, there are also celebrities and business people, if you rush in there, it will disturb them. So, please wait until after the party is over before you conduct your search.” The Hotel Manager wouldn’t budge from the entrance and said.

“But I received orders from above; it said that there’s a fugitive hiding inside. If this delay result in casualties, who would bear the responsibility? Please don’t make our job difficult.” The negotiating with the Hotel Manager middle-aged police officer still pressed on.

“Fugitive? Just now the police officer said the one hiding here is just a thief, how all of a sudden become a fugitive?” Hearing that the one hiding inside was a fugitive, the Hotel Manager’s complexion suddenly changed greatly.

“Which police officer told you this is just a thief?”

“It’s the few police officers guarding the back door of the Hotel.” The Manager answered.

The middle-aged police officer cursed in his heart, ‘I really don’t know what kind of orders did those old men sitting in the office sent. Just know that they ordered all the local police in the Shinjuku area to go all out to catch people, but none cooperate with the external experts.’

He also felt very confused. Although they were ordered to catch people, he hasn’t even seen the fugitive’s face. He was just being pressed to become interim commander here by the order of the one surnamed Kamata, to surround the area.

“In short, we will immediately go in, but we will not enter the Hall, we’ll just deploy our men on the perimeter, and will not harass other guests.” The middle-aged police officer dryly coughed and said.

“But….” The Hotel Manager did not know what to do. If so many uniformed police officers went in, it’s impossible not to disturb those important guests. Moreover, this will not be good to the Hotel reputation. But if there’s a fugitive hiding inside, and it causes casualties, no one could afford to take this responsibility.

When the Hotel Manager was hesitant, a senior police officer vehicle arrived.

When the car stopped, two men walked out.

“Good evening, Head Matsuyama.” The middle-aged police officer immediately saluted to one of the men. He never thought that even the head of the Police also come.

“What is the current situation?” The 50 somethings Police Inspector Matsuyama asked.

“Report to Head, the Shinjuku Police Officers and we have completely surrounded the Hotel.”

“So why not go in and search?” Police Head Matsuyama somewhat dissatisfied.

The middle-aged police officer wanted to say, he didn’t know the look of the fugitive, but felt this was too stupid, and besides, the Hotel Manager was also watching. He can’t say that after he had received the order from the above, he hastily rushed over here with large group of people and surrounded the place without asking for the details of the fugitive, although it was certainly according to the instruction.

Therefore, he said the concern of the Hotel Manager.

“This is indeed troublesome, never thought that Congressman Fukuda and Congressman Yokoyama are also inside.” Police Head Matsuyama began to hesitate. Those are important people that he can’t afford to offend.

Police Head Matsuyama suddenly turned to the man next to him and said: “Mr. Yamahara, do you think you can wait until after the party is over before you go in and search?”

Wearing a black jacket middle-aged man said to the middle-aged police officer: “Where is Kamata?”

“Mr. Kamata is with the Shinjuku Police Officers guarding the back door.” The middle-aged police officer replied.

“You go and tell him to come here.”

“Yes.” The middle-aged police officer immediately made a radio call after he performed the salutation ritual.

“Police Head Matsuyama, unexpectedly there are so many congressmen inside, it would be better if we wait until after the party end before we search.” The Police Officer surnamed Yamahara said to the Police Inspector.

“Thank you for Mr. Yamahara’s understanding.” Police Head Matsuyama saluted him very gratefully.

The middle-aged police officer who has just finished radioing the police officer guarding the backdoor can’t help but shock to see this mysterious man. Although he didn’t know who this man is, to see Police Head Matsuyama was so respectful toward him, the middle-aged police officer knew that this person certainly has a very important background. Looking at his neither Congressman nor Police Officer appearance, the middle-aged police officer can’t figure out his identity.

Compared to the confused middle-aged police officer, the has been standing on the balcony watching the whole process Lei Yin already knew who this man surnamed Yamahara really was.

‘Even this guy is also here, who exactly is the person they want to catch?’

‘Surprisingly, after two years, I am actually able to see him here, it really is ‘enemies on a narrow road.’ Lei Yin sneered.

‘It seems like a good play will commence after the end of the party.’ Lei Yin took another look, turned around and returned to the Banquet Hall.

After Lei Yin arrived at the dinner table and was about to continue to eat, suddenly Takeda hurriedly came.

“Masashi, what did you just say to Haruko? Why does she look so angry?”

“Where’s Yoshikawa?” Lei Yin looked up and asked.

“Going out with Haruko.”

“Takeda, as a friend, I offer you a word of advice. That girl does not suit you, do not waste your time.”

“What do you mean by this? What happened between you and Haruko just now?”

“It’s nothing, just talking clearly with her.” Lei Yin dismissively said.

His answer was similar with Takeda’s guess.

“Masashi, you really don’t have any interest toward Haruko?”

“Takeda, I ask you, what exactly do you like in Narimura Haruko? Don’t tell me it’s just because of her appearance.

“Hey, that’s too direct. Haruko is very good, her look is so beautiful, and her attitude is also very good. Ordinary people will like such a girl. Let me ask you, what exactly you don’t like in Haruko?” Takeda asked.

“Forget it, only by being subjected to a number of setbacks will a young man grow. You slowly pursue your daydream, but after you get dumped, don’t come to my apartment to get wildly drunk.” Lei Yin gave up his unnecessary piece of advice.

“You actually curse me getting dumped, assh*le!” Takeda angrily jumped.

“If you yell again, be careful they’re going to kick you out from here.”
