Chapter 31
Resignation Due to Fault, The Impacted Winery

As time passed!

After arriving, Kogoro Mouri saw his daughter safe and sound, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

There were many like Kogoro Mouri.

Even Sonoko's father, Shiro Suzuki, came in person.

However, not everyone could get the result they wanted.

"Kenji, where are you!!"

"Taro!!"

.

Some family members were already crying, and after learning the details, they pointed their anger at the Metropolitan Police Department.

It was the Metropolitan Police Department's Superintendent Matsumoto who invited them.

That's why this happened.

Secondly, the Metropolitan Police Department was not up to par during the final rescue.

If they had entered the manor earlier, so many wouldn't have died.

In short, no matter how you look at it, the Metropolitan Police Department has an undeniable responsibility.

Actually, the Metropolitan Police Department felt very aggrieved about this matter.

Because the Metropolitan Police Department also suffered many losses.

A helicopter, including the pilot and four crew members, died.

And during the exchange of fire, more than ten people were also killed or injured.

They were all sent to the hospital, and it's still unknown how many will survive.

Unfortunately, the Metropolitan Police Department is destined to have a hard time this time.

Fortunately, in the face of such a major case, even a firefight in the middle of a bustling city.

Japan's response was quick!

They dispatched a large number of personnel to investigate the cause and effect.

"After investigation, a total of over forty people died."

"Some died in the manor."

"Some died from the explosion, and eight members of the Mobile Force died."

....

Although the number of deaths caused by the Joker's this time wasn't as high as before.

But the severity was no less than before.

Especially since it was aimed at the Metropolitan Police Department personnel.

Counting up, there weren't many casualties among the police officers who attended the wedding this time.

It was the Mobile Force that came to support that suffered heavy casualties.

But it can't be counted that way!

It was mainly because Officer Megure was decisive and chose to escape through the bomb.

If they had stayed until the end, then who knows.

It's not impossible for the Metropolitan Police Department to abandon them.

This is a question that shouldn't be thought about too much.

After the release of numerous detailed reports, the entire Tokyo, even Japan, was shaken.

They never expected the Joker to be so extreme.

Of course, besides being extreme, they are also extremely bold.

The Metropolitan Police Department has even raised the Joker's bounty to 1 billion yen.

This bounty shows how much they hate the Joker.

You have to know, this is not a small sum.

The Metropolitan Police Department also held a press conference.

Superintendent Matsumoto Kiyotaka bowed and apologized, and resigned from his position.

For Matsumoto Kiyotaka, this wedding was also a victim.

He certainly didn't expect this to happen.

Secondly, his daughter is also a victim.

Fortunately, Matsumoto Sayuri was rescued.

This can be considered fortunate in misfortune!

If Matsumoto Sayuri hadn't been rescued, then Matsumoto Kiyotaka wouldn't have accepted this outcome so calmly.

Matsumoto Kiyotaka took all the responsibility.

The Metropolitan Police Department will give him a decent one.

"Officer Matsumoto, do you feel guilty?"

"Why did the Joker target this wedding?"

"What steps will the Metropolitan Police Department take to counter the Joker?"

....

But numerous reporters didn't intend to let Matsumoto Kiyotaka off the hook.

Faced with these questions, Matsumoto Kiyotaka didn't answer.

He remained silent!

However, the reporters didn't let the Metropolitan Police Department off easily. As soon as the press conference ended, various news came out.

"High-ranking officials of the Metropolitan Police Department resigned due to guilt!"

"The Metropolitan Police Department is helpless in arresting the Joker."

"How can Tokyo residents be assured?!"

....

Undoubtedly, these reports have aroused the anger of many Tokyo residents.

Even the television station opened a special program to ask residents about their views on the matter.

Undoubtedly, there were even direct insults from many citizens.

This matter has made Japan lose face.

Tokyo is a major city, and such an incident happened.

It's incredibly embarrassing on the international stage.

Many countries have reported extensively on this matter.

Matsumoto Kiyotaka bears the brunt of the fire.

But even so, many police officers involved in this wedding from the Metropolitan Police Department were punished and fined.

However, the Metropolitan Police Department is not without action.

They have contacted the Public Security Bureau to thoroughly investigate the Joker's identity.

In addition, they plan to use various investigations to screen suspicious individuals in Tokyo.

In short, they are determined to find the Joker, no matter what.

They have even allocated a special fund to capture the Joker.

And this time, they have changed the previous lax style of the Metropolitan Police Department.

They started taking action the very next day.

It's understandable, they want to take advantage of the fact that the Joker might still be in Tokyo and hope for some results.

For example, the Dogen family was also visited by investigators.

But seeing Dogen Shun, a disabled teenager, and the fact that there was only one person living in the house, along with some documents indicating that he had just woken up from a vegetative state.

He had only been back for a short time!

So they didn't arouse any suspicion.

"It seems the Metropolitan Police Department is really desperate."

Dogen Shun muttered softly after watching the investigators leave.

It's understandable!

Matsumoto Kiyotaka is a Police Superintendent, his rank is not low.

The Joker dared to target him!

If it were someone else, the Joker probably wouldn't care about the impact.

Whether it's for themselves or the pressure from public opinion, they have to take some action.

Of course, Dogen Shun doesn't believe the Metropolitan Police Department can find the Joker.

After all, the Joker is in his Sumeru Space.

No one would believe that a disabled teenager with two legs is the Joker.

But compared to Dogen Shun's indifference, some underground gangs and dark forces are in dire straits.

The large-scale investigation in Tokyo didn't find the Joker, but it did dig out these people.

With the idea of "better to kill one wrong than let one go."

Plus, the Metropolitan Police Department needs some achievements recently to wash away the previous shame.

These people were undoubtedly arrested.

In a certain base!

"Big Brother, we've lost many of our outer members recently."

"Although these outer members don't know much about our intelligence."

"But there are too many of them, and it's having a significant impact on the organization."

"Many of the organization's bases have been discovered."

"All thanks to this Joker, he's causing too much trouble."

Vodka said with a worried expression.

"If there are any more outer members, send someone to eliminate them first."

"As for the Joker, use the organization's intelligence to investigate him."

Gin said coldly, his mood wasn't very good either.

Obviously, he had a lot of opinions about the Joker.

But unlike the Shinkansen incident before!

The Joker clearly has a lot of members in his organization, and they even carry many heavy-duty weapons.

They even fought the Mobile Force in the middle of a bustling city.

The most crucial thing is that they escaped unscathed.

This couldn't help but make Gin feel a little intimidated.

Because even the organization wouldn't dare to do something like this!
