"Of course, the cause of death I just mentioned is only a preliminary autopsy report. We will later transport the two bodies back to the autopsy department for a detailed examination by the forensic doctors."

Zhou Zhiming added.

"I understand, thank you for your hard work, Director Zhou."

Asakawa Kaori tried to calm her anger a bit, and said stiffly to Zhou Zhiming.

"Miss Kaori, you're too kind. This is part of my duty."

Zhou Zhiming said, Fenghai Group is a large Japanese-funded enterprise in Celestial Sea City with significant influence, which is why he, the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation, personally came here.

"Director Zhou, are there any doubts about this case?"

Nakamura Shouta, who was on the side, asked. Asakawa Yuichi, as the president of Fenghai Group, had a certain level of ability and couldn't possibly be foolish enough to take so much Viagra and die just like that.

"Doubts, yes, there are. Look, the table here shows signs of having been cut by a sharp blade, quite neatly. Additionally, there's another point of doubt. Last night, Fenghai Building suddenly experienced a power outage. During the power outage, it's possible someone might have infiltrated this place. However, because of the power outage, there are no useful video records left here."

Zhou Zhiming thought for a moment and said.

Upon hearing this, Asakawa Kaori and Suzuki Baihui exchanged a glance, frowning. No matter what, the deaths of Asakawa Yuichi and Akiyama Takako are very suspicious.

"No need to trouble Director Zhou; let's end things here."

Asakawa Kaori said solemnly, shaking her head in refusal.

No matter what, these two embarrassing deaths, if taken back for examination by the Huaxia police and further investigated, by then, the whole world would know how the president of the group under the Asakawa Clan died, and the Asakawa Clan cannot afford to lose face like this.

"Miss Kaori, are you saying we don't need to investigate?"

Zhou Zhiming looked at Asakawa Kaori.

"Yes, Director Zhou, I hope the spread of today's events will end here."

Asakawa Kaori said.

"Miss Kaori, this is a case that happened in Huaxia after all, and there are still two points of doubt in this case..."

Zhou Zhiming raised an eyebrow.

"Director Zhou, you are a smart person. You should know what this means for Fenghai Group. By then, with a big drop in Fenghai Group's stock price in Japan, the impact will be significant. Once Fenghai Group's business is impeded, our investments in Huaxia, especially in Celestial Sea City, will inevitably decrease. I think this is not something your city government would want to see."

Asakawa Kaori stared at Zhou Zhiming and said.

Seeing Asakawa Kaori persist, Zhou Zhiming said nothing further. The Asakawa Clan has many enterprises invested in Huaxia, and since the deceased were also two Japanese, since Asakawa Kaori doesn't want him to handle it, he won't gratuitously involve himself.

"Alright, then let's follow Miss Kaori's request."

Zhou Zhiming said immediately.

"In that case, thank you very much, Director Zhou."

Asakawa Kaori nodded slightly and then said, "Kaori heard that your criminal investigation department is short of police vehicles, and Kaori would like to represent Fenghai Group in donating ten police cars to the Celestial Sea City Public Security Bureau."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhiming's eyes lit up a bit. Of course, he knew what Asakawa Kaori meant by donating vehicles, which was to ensure that today's case doesn't leak out.

"Alright, on behalf of all the officers of the city bureau, I thank Miss Kaori for her generosity. Additionally, I will remind the officers involved in this case not to leak this matter."

Zhou Zhiming said solemnly. Ten police vehicles from the Japanese are not to be taken for granted.

"That's not necessary. It's just that, Director Zhou, I believe the real cause of Yuichi's death should be overwork and sudden myocardial infarction, don't you think?"

Asakawa Kaori, with a solemn tone, looked directly at Zhou Zhiming.

Hearing Asakawa Kaori's words, Zhou Zhiming was slightly startled, but he couldn't help but admire the woman's cleverness. Such an embarrassing death from excessive indulgence was turned into a model laborer who died from overworking by her words.

"Yes, Miss Kaori."

Zhou Zhiming nodded and said.

Anyway, letting it leak is not beneficial for Celestial Sea City either. After all, Fenghai Group is a large Japanese-funded enterprise introduced by the city government. The country is in a development phase, and national enterprises also need the stimulus from foreign enterprises. If they really reduce their investment in Huaxia, it wouldn't be good.

"Then, Miss Kaori, since Mr. Yuichi's death is due to overwork, I won't disturb you any longer."

Zhou Zhiming said to Asakawa Kaori. Now, he had nothing more to do, and it would be best to lead the team and leave, but having the donation of ten police cars from this deployment was not a bad outcome.

"Alright, Director Zhou, take care."

Asakawa Kaori nodded slightly and said.

However, just as Zhou Zhiming was about to leave with his men, a call came in. Zhou Zhiming answered the phone, and whatever was said on the other side made his expression slightly darken.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Zhiming glanced at Asakawa Kaori, a hint of peculiarity in his eyes.

"Miss Kaori, I just received a report. Last night, there was a car accident on Guanghua Road. There were five people in the car, all dead. The identities of two of them have been confirmed: one is Asakawa Keisuke, and the other is Nozaki Yoshida."

Zhou Zhiming hesitated for a moment and still spoke to Asakawa Kaori.

"What? Keisuke is dead too?! That's impossible!"

Asakawa Kaori's brows furrowed, and her expression immediately darkened.

Although she said it was impossible, she already believed it in her heart. Zhou Zhiming had no reason to deceive her. First, Asakawa Yuichi died from excessive indulgence, and now Asakawa Keisuke was also in a car accident. To say there's no connection here, even she wouldn't believe it.

"Miss Kaori, do you think it might have been that Chinese person's doing?"

Suzuki Baihui also had a hint of anger in her eyes, thought for a moment, and looked at Asakawa Kaori.

"Are you saying it's him?!"

Asakawa Kaori's face darkened, saying nothing, seemingly agreeing with Suzuki Baihui's view. Except for that Chinese person, who else would dare to offend the Asakawa Clan with such ruthless methods?

"Yes, Miss Kaori, this should be his revenge against us for attacking him or can be seen as a deterrence."

Suzuki Baihui's heart also held a hint of anger.

"Revenge? Deterrence? How despicable those damn Chinese! He wasn't even at a disadvantage."

Asakawa Kaori bit her silver teeth, her beautiful eyes filled with rage.

Although the Asakawa Clan ambushed him first, he was not injured, and instead, he killed the powerful ninjas the clan sent. Yet he still wasn't satisfied and came to attack the high-level direct lineage of the Asakawa Clan in Huaxia.

However, amidst her fury, Asakawa Kaori had a faint dread of Qin Yang's ruthless means. This Chinese seemed different from others, ruthless and merciless.

Zhou Zhiming glanced at the two, not understanding who the Chinese person they mentioned was, but anyone who could deal with the Asakawa Clan like this must be a formidable character.
