Chapter 161: Chapter 157: Both the Underworld and the Legitimate Move, Yoshida Tomo’s Plan"Damn!"
Aoyama Xiu Xin cursed darkly.
He knew very well what he had done himself.
Now that Noda, a desperate fugitive, had escaped, every day he remained alive was a profit, and he would definitely seek revenge on himself and Nakamura Shinichi, unless he had converted to Buddhism in prison.
"It’s all because of those useless guards who couldn’t keep watch! Even with handcuffs and fetters, the prisoner was able to escape," Nakamura Shinichi said angrily under great pressure, then asked, "Inspector, what should we do?"
Initially, he was the main tormentor of Noda.
If he fell into Noda’s hands...
He dared not think of the consequences.
"Before Noda is caught, don’t let your family go out. I’ll arrange for protection around your house, and you need to be careful yourself—it’s best to carry a gun at all times," Aoyama Xiu Xin said, taking a deep breath.
If he couldn’t even protect his subordinates,
Who else would follow his orders for violent interrogation in the future?
Well...from this perspective, Noda’s escape had even somehow regularized the legal process and advanced the rule of law, having a positive and proactive meaning.
Nakamura Shinichi nodded seriously, "Yes!"
"Since ancient times, there has only been the saying that a thief can’t be on guard forever against the police. We must catch Noda—I want him dead this time!" A wave of ruthless determination flashed across the handsome face of Aoyama Xiu Xin, and his eyes gleamed ferociously.
Now it seems that for such a person, just imprisonment is not reliable. In the future, to prevent such jailbreaks, it would be better to kill him if possible.
As long as all the criminals are dead, there won’t be any more jailbreaks, and it will even save the nation some money.
Who would dare say that Mr. Aoyama is not patriotic?
Nakamura Shinichi frowned and said, "But the manhunt is personally overseen by Director Renping. Our
Moreover, to seek revenge for Noda, they had to return to Tokyo and, incidentally, pull off a big job to have the funds to escape. Otherwise, going abroad without money would mean a miserable existence, so what then would be the point of living?
Before they were imprisoned, they had already prepared a safe house in Tokyo, stocked with food and water enough for eleven people for half a month, along with plenty of firearms and ammunition.
The location of the safe house was also quite cunning.
It was situated in a residential area in a wealthy district at Chidai 1-chome in Shitamachi District. The police wouldn’t likely search such an area until they had scoured everywhere else.
Moreover, the area did not have the usual mix of violent gang members and others around, so as long as they did not expose themselves and invite neighbors to report, it was very safe for the short term.
At that moment, the eleven people were gathered for a meeting.
A map of Tokyo was spread across the table.
"Our target is this gold shop. Gold is a universally valued commodity. After robbing it, we won’t even need to convert it to cash to carry it away," Yoshida Tomo said gravely, circling a well-known gold shop in the Harbor District on the map.
Noda spoke, "Right now, the streets are swarming with police. The likelihood of a successful robbery is too low."
They might just start the operation when patrolling officers could arrive at the scene. If they were held up, waiting for more police to arrive, they would have no chance of escape.
"Heh, of course, we can’t use the traditional methods of robbery; we need to use our brains," Yoshida Tomo said with a chuckle, pointing at his own head, evidently having a plan in mind, "I’ve checked. The gold shop owner is an older man with a young child, so we simply kidnap his wife and child, make him openly hand over the gold from the shop, and once the task is accomplished, kill his entire family."
"But how will we get away afterwards? The streets are full of roadblocks right now, let alone leaving Japan, even leaving Tokyo is difficult," Noda raised another concern.
Yoshida Tomo didn’t answer directly but turned to one of his underlings, "Are the cars ready?"
"All three are ready," the underling replied.
Yoshida Tomo then said to Noda, "I foresaw this situation before we went in, so I had them modify three police cars outside. When the time comes, we’ll just impersonate police officers. Right now, police are everywhere across the country, and departments don’t necessarily recognize each other, which is ideal for us to blend in."
"But our faces are on the wanted posters, how can we impersonate them?" Noda asked, touching his face.
Yoshida Tomo chuckled, "I’ve thought about that too. So, I plan to impersonate the special mobile units. Their full gear covers the entire face with masks, and since the special police are high in the hierarchy, ordinary officers wouldn’t dare to question too much."
"After leaving Tokyo, we’ll first hide in the countryside for a while. This tense situation can’t last forever. The public will break down first. Once the storm has passed and martial law is lifted, we’ll contact a ship to leave Japan. Once abroad, with our skills and the gold in our possession, couldn’t we start a new venture?"
The others showed no reaction, evidently being in on the plan discussed with Yoshida Tomo before their incarceration.
"Mr. Yoshida, that’s brilliant!" Noda’s eyes lit up, noting how every aspect had been considered. If his team’s strategist had been as clever as Yoshida Tomo, they wouldn’t have faced repeated defeats.
"It’s just some clever tricks," Yoshida Tomo humbly laughed, waving his hand then turned to Noda, "The key thing is taking revenge for you. That wasn’t part of the original plan, but since I promised you, I always do what I say. It’s my personal principle and why these brothers here are willing to follow me. Listen to my idea first."
"Please, Mr. Yoshida," Noda said, sitting upright, ready to listen.
