Ch35: Police investigation

February 10

The inspector was in the working room of the Gesell Chamber, the interrogation room used by the police, on the other side of the glass was one of the most powerful men in the world, Mr. Damien Raven. He was sitting in one of the chairs answering quite relaxed the questions that were asked, next to him was his lawyer paying attention to the entire interrogation process. because it was Damien himself who went personally to the police station to answer questions about what had happened on Friday.

But although the interrogation was going nowhere, the inspector did not stop observing the smallest detail of what was happening on the other side of the glass. Well, he knew that all this was nothing more than a pantomime to divert his attention from what was really happening. He had no evidence, but also no doubts. He knew that the person on the other side was responsible to some degree for what happened to the granddaughter that he swore to protect.

The ISC seemed to have worked quite well on his excuse and although he wanted to focus his investigation on the possible fault of the company, his superiors had been pressured not to bother the company, because although his snow had been a victim of what happened to his bosses They claimed that this very fact was clouding their judgment and the investigation. They even threatened that he could lose his position if he continued to bother the I.S.C without convincing evidence to the contrary.

Unable to keep holding back his anger, he left the room at the same time that he closed the door behind him with such force that he was heard even in the interrogation room. Mr. Yamamoto was impatient to find something he could use to prosecute those he believed were primarily responsible. But he had almost nothing to work with, he only had the reports that he himself wrote about the shooting, the bodies of several dead who had entered the country illegally according to the government, and the testimony of his granddaughter who seemed to have no good memory. This was of course only what he could say he knew, he actually knew a little more but could not say anything about it.

But how could he explain that he got to the scene of the shooting so fast because he was investigating the place on his own for a friend? Mrs. Adelis had called him a couple of days before asking for some information about the place because she believed that her daughter who had disappeared could be there. The inspector had also been asked to investigate the car that attacked them when they arrived and that caused the subsequent chase on the highway because apart from opening fire on the police, he was also required by the ISC for having attacked their facilities at the request of Damien a change of the interrogation, which the government superiors accepted without the inspector's consent. He knew that even the security minister knew or had something to do with all this, but he didn't want to say anything to him. The only reason he was not so concerned about the car and the chase is that the inspector could see the passengers who were in it and among them, he could see Mrs. Adelis and her granddaughter Haru. And seeing that not long after they even delivered her over to a police station, he thought she had reasons for her team to open fire on the police, so he believed in her, at least more than he believed in his superiors or at the I.S.C.

When the inspector arrived at his office he began to review again the security videos that he could get from the I.S.C. But no matter how much he reviewed them, the videos did not show him any new information. All were from cameras in the suburbs or with some technical problems in terms of image quality. The few cameras that could be useful were destroyed in the first moments of the shooting by someone who seemed to be out of sight. It seemed that even the videos were personally edited so as not to be useful. There was no reason not to believe that the people responsible for that was once again the much-mentioned company. No matter how much he thought about everything he would always lead to the same point.
