Haruno Takayoshi stood his ground, waiting for Aoyama Xiu Xin to walk ahead of him before he followed suit.
He had already arranged the motorcade in advance, all according to the standards set by Fujimoto Takayoshi when he traveled.
Two police motorcycles led the way, sirens blaring.
Aoyama Xiu Xin's ride was in the middle.
Behind it, four police motorcycles followed, their sirens escorting.
For a Director of Criminal Affairs Department, this kind of display was undoubtedly high-profile, but high-profile was exactly what Aoyama Xiu Xin wanted—to visibly tell everyone who was in charge of the police headquarters now.
He was already being called the Shadow Director.
"Is everything ready?" Inside the car, Aoyama Xiu Xin, looking at the receding streetscapes through the window, asked indifferently.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Haruno Takayoshi patted his briefcase, nodded, and bowed as he replied, "It's all here."
