Chapter 164: Whitewashing Surveillance Video
Bu Liangren came to the "Kuboli" shopping mall closest to the Shinjuku District Police Station. After showing his ID, he quickly found the person in charge of the mall.
When the person in charge saw that it was the police captain from Shinjuku District who came to investigate the case, he immediately cooperated with Bu Liangren and went to the monitoring room of the shopping mall.
Bu Liangren looked at the screen in the monitoring room and thought that the problem should not be serious. Basically, every floor and corner of the shopping mall was monitored in real time. It seemed that the criminal did not destroy the surveillance before committing the crime.
In that case, the investigation would be much easier. In the cases he had been in charge of in the past , many criminals would destroy the surveillance cameras in advance, making it impossible to investigate the case.
Watching the person in charge of the shopping mall skillfully reviewing the surveillance footage of the incident on the computer, Bu Liangren felt that the problem was not serious.
If you have a video of a criminal committing a crime, you can follow the clues and identify the suspect.
"Tanaka Kame, let's see what excuses you can use this time!" Bu Liangren thought to himself as he stared at the surveillance screen.
When he was at the police station, the moment he heard the police officer's report, he concluded that it was still the work of the Tanaka Group. In Shinjuku District, who else except the Tanaka Group would have such courage?
"Found it!" said the mall manager, looking at yesterday's surveillance video file.
Bu Liangren said: "Move the time node of the video to 13:31!" This is the time of the incident locked based on eyewitnesses in the mall.
The mall manager slowly dragged the mouse, and the timestamp gradually approached 13:31
"Huh? How could this happen?" The mall manager cried out in confusion and dragged the mouse repeatedly.
However, the surveillance screen was still blank. The only part missing from the entire day's surveillance video was the one where Yutian attacked Jingyi.
Bu Liangren immediately sensed that something was wrong, and he asked, "Has anyone else entered the monitoring room?"
The person in charge of the mall answered affirmatively: "No, the key to the monitoring room is kept by me alone. Besides, the mall's surveillance is rarely checked. Only when something like theft occurs will people enter this room. Also, there is a monthly routine inspection."
In order to further prove what he said, the person in charge of the shopping mall retrieved the surveillance video outside the monitoring room.
The video was fine and no one was found to have sneaked into the monitoring room.
Bu Liangren personally operated the mouse and checked again and again, but the result was the same.
It looks like things are getting tricky.
The surveillance video of the incident just disappeared out of thin air? But the other cameras were all fine.
Bu Liangren requested to take back all the surveillance camera footage, hoping to find some clues from other good video footage.
The mall manager naturally agreed.
After leaving the Kuboli shopping mall, Bu Liangren went to several other crime scenes. As expected, all the videos of the incidents were blacked out. He could only take the relevant surveillance videos back to the police station and study them carefully, hoping to gain something.
Tanaka Group headquarters building.
Kame Tanaka and Ichiro Taisha were in their office on the fifteenth floor.
"President, in yesterday's operation, we captured more than a hundred people who met the serum injection requirements."
Tanaka Kame nodded with satisfaction, then asked, "How is it going? Is there any news from the police?"
Taisha Ichiro answered truthfully: "I heard that the number of people who reported crimes today has almost broken down the threshold of the police station. The public is very dissatisfied with the fact that they could not get through to report crimes yesterday! But the police station also doesn't understand why the phone lines are busy."
Ichiro Taisha looked at Kame Tanaka and saw that he was smiling confidently. He already had a rough guess in his mind, but he just didn't know how the president managed to do this.
Then he thought of another thing and said with a little worry: "People down there, I saw Bu Liangren from the police station go to various scenes today. I guess he went there to check the surveillance video."
He was still quite worried about this. The group had made such a big fuss, the bureaucrats who had originally provided shelter would probably come to hold them accountable. After all, the group's actions had already greatly endangered social security.
If Bu Liangren collected the surveillance video and extracted clues to the case from it, it would be difficult to handle. Although the serum fighters in this operation were all wearing black robes, if one of them revealed his face, the police would follow the clues and obtain evidence of the group's crimes.
Kame Tanaka waved his hands and laughed.
"Don't worry, the police won't find anything on the surveillance video!"
After hearing what Kame Tanaka said, Taisha Ichiro still had some doubts, but he could not doubt what the president said. Besides, Kame Tanaka had been in contact with AI and had told him about it before.
It seems that the president has come into contact with AI again and obtained some powerful technology, Taisha Ichiro thought.
Since Kame Tanaka didn't say anything, he naturally wouldn't ask any more questions.
Sometimes, knowing more is not a good thing.
The reason why the president did not choose to silence the person even though he knew about the existence of AI was, firstly, when he first came into contact with AI, the development of the serum required someone to raise funds, and secondly, because he understood that he should not ask questions if he should not know.
Tanaka Kame lay down on the boss chair and continued, "Now that we have the people, let Hu Shiquan speed up the production of serum warriors. At the same time, you should also speed up the training of new serum warriors in the virtual world. They will be of great use in the future."
Taisha Ichiro bowed and said "yes".
As the two were talking, the phone on Tanaka Kame's desk rang.
Tanaka Kame directly asked Taisha Ichiro to press the speaker button, while he himself did not move in the boss chair.
The angry voice of Shinjuku Ward Mayor Minamino came from the phone.
"Tanaka Kame! What do you mean? Did you instigate the crime that happened on the street yesterday?!"
Mayor Minamino couldn't help but be furious. Such a big thing happened in his jurisdiction. If he couldn't handle it well, he would have to step down directly.
So after learning what happened yesterday, he immediately called Tanaka Kame to question him.
Although the Tanaka Group gave him a lot of bribes, especially a private room specially prepared for him every week, which was filled with young students from the University of Tokyo.
But he could only give the Tanaka Group the necessary protection within limited circumstances. For example, in the previous gang struggle between the Tanaka Group and the Harukami Society, he had asked the Shinjuku District Police Station to turn a blind eye!
The commotion caused by the Tanaka Group this time was really too big. Hundreds of people were abducted on the street. This was no joke. No city would allow such a thing to happen!
It's not that he doesn't want to protect the Tanaka Group, but that the other party has touched the authority of the government!
Must be severely punished!
Of course, he didn't call to ask Tanaka Kame to go and face the law, but just wanted to understand the whole and wanted Tanaka Kame to give an answer.
He thought that Tanaka Kame would beg him for help again, just like he did before.
Unexpectedly, this time Tanaka Kame's attitude made a 180-degree turn.
Tanaka Kame said indifferently on the phone: "Mayor Minamino, you can't say that!"
Nan Ye was very dissatisfied with Tanaka Kame's attitude on the other end of the phone. He asked coldly: "Tanaka Kame, what do you mean? In Shinjuku, who else but you has such courage!"
