Chapter 56 Section fifty-four

Hang the "In Meeting" sign on the outside doorknob, and close the door of the advertising room where the principle of "no one is rejected".This was the first time that Mikami had happened since he became the broadcasting officer.Suwa and Kuramae sat on the sofa facing each other, while Meiyun pulled up a chair and sat aside.Because I came back by running, I was still out of breath. "I want to bring closure to the issue of anonymity." After Mikami said these words, he looked at the faces of the three people in sequence. "In the final analysis, the reason for the deterioration of the relationship with the neighbor and the boycott of the press conference is due to the anonymity. It is not an exaggeration to say that the anonymity problem is the culprit. So we must cut the mess quickly."

Cut the mess with a quick knife?Suwa frowned. "We will no longer publish anonymously in the future, and in principle, we will disclose our real names to reporters." The faces of the three of them changed, and Suwa's eyes looked at the ceiling for a moment. "If you do this, the boss..." "That's what it said." "Really? The minister said that the name can be released?" "He said it's okay to write a bad check to avoid a boycott of journalists." Suwa looked up to the sky and sighed, but immediately turned his body back, and said as if he was choking on saliva:

"Does that mean we're going to cheat the club?" "It's not a lie. In principle, the name can be announced... That's what I think." "...can you announce your name?" "That's right. In turn, use the scam above to pave the way for the announcement of the real name." Suwa's face was throbbing convulsively, Kuramae looked at a loss, while Meiyun stared at Mikami raptly. "Not to deceive the club, but to deceive the superiors?" Suwa asked again, with anger hidden in his tone. "Just to fix the rules of anonymity."

"Correction? It's sabotage! I can't understand it at all. Why do you have to do such a reckless thing even if you deceive your superiors? It's too irresponsible to publish everything under your real name. Can you do this to the pregnant woman? What if it is a juvenile delinquent? Should we ignore juvenile law? What if it is a case involving gangsters? If the name of ordinary people appears in the news, they will definitely be counterattacked! What about suicide? What about martyrdom? What about the medical records of mental patients How can we leave it all to the media for judgment?"

"That's why there is a press office! This is our job. Although the real name is announced, if there are reasons for questioning, we have to have a long talk with the reporters and persuade them until they are willing to remain anonymous. If you think about it carefully, what is the difference in judgment criteria between our anonymous publication and the media’s anonymous reporting? As long as we do our job well, they should care about human rights and privacy issues more than we do. It’s not going too far off track.” "This is just your wishful thinking! Haven't the broadcasters suffered many times? They are just a bunch of mobs disguised as goodwill groups, and unimaginable derailment and violent incidents may occur at any time."

Suwa itself is the history and current status of this advertising room.If you can't convince this man, nothing will change. Mikami leaned his body towards the table, clasped his fingers. "I want to trust them." Suwa's eyes widened. "Trust who? The group?" "Exactly. On the subject of anonymity, I want to trust them, I don't want to play any tactics anymore. I want to try and see how close we can get to each other." "Please don't do this. This is not a situation that can be handled with the words "human nature is good." If you don't, you won't be able to control them."

"Is this really what you think?" "What do you mean by that?" Suwa stretched his neck provocatively. "I've dealt with journalists here for six years and know better than anyone how scary it can be when a club is out of control." "What do you mean by scary? Is there any real harm? Don't you become afraid because the organization is afraid of reporters?" Suwa nodded casually. "It's a matter of course. I'm a member of the D county police. Of course, I have to worry about things that the organization is worried about. Of course, I can only follow the guidelines determined by the organization."

"But that's not the policy of the D prefectural police, but Tokyo's consideration." "Of course I know this, so I can't resist. Although we are independent individuals, we are not completely independent individuals. Am I wrong?" Mikami took a deep breath.After being asked back by his subordinates, what he should have said to his subordinates became clearer. "Even if the higher-ups are replaced, the content of the job remains the same. The matter of advertising must be decided in the advertising room, and it is up to us who are present at the moment to decide."

Suwa shook his head. "The top is equal to the organization, and an advertisement that ignores the organization's ideas is not an advertisement at all." "An organization is a collection of individuals, and of course individual ideas can become organizational ideas." "To me, it's just a shabby way of saying it." Suwa's tone was very excited, and he glanced angrily at the bandage on Mikami's hand. "Please consider your own position. Once the publicity officer says that the real name will be released in the future, it will become the decision of the D county police."

"Of course." "It is more difficult to take back the rights given out. The rebound will be several times, dozens of times greater than not giving them at the beginning." "It will not be taken back, and it will be handled in the future." "Of course you don't care, as long as you carry out your opinions to the end, you will be satisfied! But what about after that? After next spring, everyone in the publicity office will be trapped in your words forever and suffer endlessly." "Who said I'm only staying until next spring?" "Don't pretend. Didn't you dare to say that you want to announce your real name because you saw through it? Regardless of the above's prohibition, you broke into the minister's office and made a big fuss in the secretarial class. Next spring He will definitely be transferred, so..."

Before Tibet, she remained as motionless as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, while Mei Yun's face was red all the way to her ears, as if she herself had been scolded. "Broadcaster, please say something constructive!" Suwa persuaded him with a persuasive tone. "Please think of ways to prevent the boycott from actually happening without deceiving the club. The most urgent thing is to apologize first. No matter what happens, just apologize. Even if the other party refuses to accept it, you must rush to apologize. Let's go down together Kneel and kowtow! I will accompany you, and Kuramae and Meiyun will also accompany you. The part of the anonymous question is explained by others. I said that I will try my best to reveal the real name in the future. They also want to interview the chief, so even if they know it is an ambiguous answer, they may swallow it." "Did you become a police officer just to make such suggestions?" "what?" "What's next? Next time? Next time? You don't make any judgments, just make suggestions and end your police life?" Suwa gritted his teeth angrily. "Ambiguousness is also a judgment. I also make this suggestion with a mortal determination." "You're just trying to delay the attack! You really want to torture the people behind." "I mean, according to the content of the question, delaying the attack is also an important judgment. Most importantly, I don't think that publishing the real name is the right judgment at all. What should the pregnant woman do? Doesn't the broadcaster also think that publishing anonymously is a It’s a more appropriate arrangement, so why did you do this?” "I do think this is more appropriate. However, Kikunishi Hanako is the daughter of the president of King Cement." All six eyes widened at the same time. "That, isn't that..." "That's right, because they knew she was the daughter of a public security committee member, so her name was not announced." A long silence followed.As if to take responsibility for what he said, Suwa cocked his lips and said: "... Even so, maybe this is the correct judgment. After all, hurting the face of the public security committee is hurting the face of the organization." "Are you serious about what you said?" After Mikami gave him a vicious stare, Suwa smiled at him with his mouth twisted. "The broadcaster is indeed a criminal police officer!" "What do you mean by that?" "You detectives are always indifferent to the organization. Whether the organization is injured or collapsed, it's all other people's business. You always look down on work other than investigation. From a certain point of view, it is no different from the special investigation team." "You mean me too?" "Isn't it? The advertising room is just a place for you to live temporarily! It's a transitional period before returning to the criminal department. So although you don't think much of our work, you have to bite the bullet and do it first. But there are also People who have to support their families. There are many police jobs that have nothing to do with investigations. It doesn't hurt to be expelled from the police department. You will leave sooner or later anyway. It is because of this idea that you will Say something irresponsible like the special examination team.” Mikami no longer felt anger, replaced by deep sorrow.It turns out that subordinates will also label their bosses.Here, the criminal department is his "convict record".Said that in the past eight months, Suwa has never changed his initial opinion of him. Mikami sighed deeply. "There is one more thing to tell everyone... that is, our Minister of Criminal Affairs will be appointed by this department in the future. The inspection on 64 is for this purpose. It is for the purpose of announcing this matter here, and the chief will come to inspect." Suwa closed her mouth in astonishment, then looked up at the ceiling as if in slow motion. "I didn't think I could go back to the criminal department. Although I was asked to let them successfully boycott the press conference, I refused." Someone knocked on the door, but no one got up.There was another knock on the door, but no one moved.After a while, the footsteps outside the door gradually faded away. "I also agree with the chief's plan." Suddenly, Mei Yun broke the silence. "I think it's OK to keep the question of anonymity ambiguous." "I think so too." Tibet also seconded. "Let's kneel and kowtow together. No matter whether we can avoid the situation of boycott, but at least..." They left a step down for Mikami... But Mikami has made up his mind. "Don't say such strategic words anymore. When all the back roads are cut off, maybe there is a chance to find another new road. A road that doesn't use tactics, a road that can try to believe in the world outside yourself." Zangqian didn't seem to agree, and even Meiyun, who should be able to nod, refused to nod for a long time. "Don't you understand? If the police only stand in the position of the police, this life is really finished. If they are not aware of their own corruption, they will only continue to be corrupt. No matter how untrustworthy a group of people journalists are , no matter how filthy the outside world is, it’s better than staying in the same place all the time.” Mikami clenched his fist unconsciously, the wound on his hand was painful.Meiyun also clutched her knees tightly, her hands and knees trembling slightly.Kuramae sighed long and thinly, then looked at Suwa beside him with weak eyes. Mikami let go of his fist and moved his fingers. "Suwa." no answer.Suwa was bending over to look at his toes, so he could only see his neck. After waiting for a few seconds, Suwa still didn't move. "Just pretend you didn't hear what you just said!" Mikami stood up. "I'll go next door, and you all stay here until I come back." "Are you going to leave the Criminal Department alone?" There was a faint sound in my ear.Suwa raised his eyes and looked at himself. "I understand the consciousness of the broadcasting officer. But is this really good? That's the workplace you've been in for most of your life! Can you let the special examination team do whatever they want?" Mikami walked towards the door. "My workplace is here. I will not let the special examination team or the criminal department do whatever they want."
