Chapter 1340: Chapter 1266: Ningtai One-Stop Service

"It’s settled, the Dama Police Force will send an officer to liaise with us. Once we’ve arranged the entrapment plan, the Dama Police Force will dispatch personnel to execute it." Jiang Yuan made a phone call and returned to inform Wan Quan, Hang Haichuan, and others.

The case still belongs to the Changyang Customs Anti-Smuggling Branch, but on Tianjin Customs’ territory. Hang Haichuan seemed more excited than Wan Quan and quickly asked, "How many people can we use, and for how long?"

He truly had experience in multinational cooperation, knowing that many countries’ police forces have high requirements. Ordinary major cases may have limitations on the number of people involved, and some even require arrangements during weekdays’ working hours, which is very unusual.

It means that criminals can evade most of the police force just by avoiding the 8 hours of weekdays.

Jiang Yuan, however, did not have similar experiences, and looked curiously at Hang Haichuan, saying, "I don’t think there are restrictions on the number of people and time, right? As long as it’s needed, you can request it."

Hang Haichuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Then if I want to capture 1,000 people and need 10,000 police officers, they can provide that?"

Jiang Yuan thought about it seriously and said, "I don’t think that’s a problem. If necessary."

He had cooperated with the Dama Police Station on several cases before, with thousands of officers deployed during investigations. Overall, he felt the police level and officer quality in Dama could meet corresponding demands. As for whether it’s allowed, Jiang Yuan never considered it.

Hang Haichuan couldn’t help but swallow lightly.

"Let Commissioner Huang know." Jiang Yuan waved and called over Wang Chuanxing, saying, "File an application. Once Director Huang signs it, send it to the department. I’ll discuss it and see if there are any procedures to follow."

"Yes." Wang Chuanxing immediately started typing.

Jiang Yuan made another call to Cui Xiaohu. He connected and informed him of the situation, as well as the application submitted.

On the other end of the call, Cui Xiaohu was very interested. He had been to Dama before and had met Ni Cha and others. He thought, "Well, I happen to have some time. I’ll come over to Tianjin and have a look... Oh, Li Haochen is also here, and he’s interested... Hold on... We’ll apply to our leaders, then come over; it’ll take two hours for the high-speed train."

"Welcome the leaders for inspection. I’ll arrange someone to pick you up at the high-speed train station..." Jiang Yuan said some inappropriate politeness, causing Cui Xiaohu to modestly decline.

After hanging up, Jiang Yuan simplified the explanation, "Someone from the department is coming over, probably responsible for liaising with the Dama Police Force. The rest is to lure out Cai Dachui; in that aspect, Li Haochen, who is also from the Ministry’s Criminal Investigation Bureau, is quite adept at undercover operations and criminal profiling..."

"So... it’s all sorted?" Hang Haichuan calculated that everything from capturing suspects to processing paperwork, from international relations to departmental matters, seemed to be covered, leaving his side just waiting.

Jiang Yuan nodded, thinking this was simpler than dealing with a case in Dama.

Qiu Jianye, a criminal police officer on the side, quietly said with a sense of pride, "This is Ningtai streamlining."

...

Two hours later.

Cui Xiaohu and Li Haochen arrived as scheduled.

The two greeted Jiang Yuan happily, with a bit of youthful excitement about accomplishing big things.

Even at the Ministry’s Criminal Investigation Bureau, when it comes to the pleasure of solving cases, it’s most satisfying when working with Jiang Yuan. Moreover, the more cases handled, the deeper their understanding.

In contrast, the leaders from the Tianjin Bureau came to welcome them, adjusting slightly to the young people’s pace.

"I drafted a profile in the car regarding Cai Dachui. Due to incomplete information, this profile might be a bit inappropriate, so it’s only for reference." Li Haochen promptly handed a report to Jiang Yuan, speaking humbly, yet his eyes were full of a desire for recognition.

The leaders present all felt a bit pity and unanimously turned to Jiang Yuan. Such a promising young man, especially one from the Ministry, should be encouraged.

Jiang Yuan merely smiled and said, "Let me take a look."

"Uh-huh." Li Haochen nodded vigorously.

Jiang Yuan opened the file Li Haochen provided, beginning with a very formal format:

1. Basic Archive—

2. Social Relationship Spectrum—

3. Crime Pattern Technical Breakdown—

...

Lastly was Psychological-Behavioral Profiling:

1. Personality Portrait:

Machiavellian Tendencies:

Pathological Need for Control:

High Preference for Risk Decision Models:

Jiang Yuan quickly flipped through the pages, finally nodding to Li Haochen and saying, "It’s good, we can send a copy to the Dama Police Force later."

"Really?" Li Haochen felt his efforts were recognized and was very happy.

Jiang Yuan nodded again and then said, "The task to lure Cai Dachui is yours."

Li Haochen was stunned, jumped up, and a vein pulsed on his temple as he asked incredulously, "Really?"

"Really. I’ll give you three hours to research a plan... Is that enough time?"

"No need for three hours; two hours is more than enough." Li Haochen patted his chest and accepted. Then, unsure, he looked at Jiang Yuan, embarrassedly lowered his tone, and said, "Director Jiang can rest assured; I will definitely handle this case."

"Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Yuan nodded noncommittally.

A hint of solemnity appeared on Li Haochen’s face. He nodded seriously and then left, his attitude earnest beyond words.

Watching the interaction between Jiang Yuan and Li Haochen, Cui Xiaohu felt a moment’s admiration.

Li Haochen’s life goal is to become China’s king of profiling. But this technique, effective in Europe and America, might not work as well in China.

Besides, instead of saying criminal profiling seems incompatible in China, it’s better to say there are too many competing methods.

For solving cases, domestic special task forces often require twenty or thirty people. If needed, more can be requisitioned. Internationally, small to medium-scale cases often start with just two or three officers, barely having a group of six or seven, all while adhering to weekends and an 8-hour work schedule.

Apart from a large workforce, various technical methods are also available domestically. While in earlier years, China had a technological gap compared to developed countries like Europe and America, now regional DNA labs, trace evidence labs, and other high-end labs have been established below the provincial level, and digital technologies have far surpassed those abroad.

Twenty years ago, county-level bureaus like Ningtai hardly received DNA technical support for cases other than major ones. Now, second-generation DNA technology and the spread of third-generation DNA happen much faster.

Not to mention the abundance of mobile networks and surveillance video information, which can easily elevate an LV0.5 detective to the level of LV1 with complete mastery.

In this environment, Li Haochen’s goals are less a matter of improbability and more a matter of impossibility.

Moreover, due to his youth and lack of experience, even when leading a few cases through the Ministry’s Criminal Investigation Bureau, he failed to demonstrate his full potential and hasn’t received such opportunities since.

Cui Xiaohu felt Jiang Yuan might be unaware of this but regardless of knowing it or not, offering such an opportunity to Li Haochen was extraordinarily rare.

Cui Xiaohu was worried Jiang Yuan might mismanage things and hesitated before discreetly reminding, "Cai Dachui is the main offender in this case and is overseas. Li Haochen might find it challenging to handle alone."

"I don’t have anyone better suited, so I’ll have to burden him." Jiang Yuan’s response surprised Cui Xiaohu.

"No one else?" Cui Xiaohu couldn’t fathom this answer and said, "Jiang Yuan’s Accumulated Case Team is strong; how could there be a shortage?"

"We’ve never used undercover before in our previous cases, and have never enticed suspects like this before. After reviewing, Li Haochen seems the most suitable candidate, right?" Jiang Yuan replied rationally.

Cui Xiaohu opened his mouth but didn’t know whether to praise Li Haochen’s luck or Jiang Yuan’s ability to recognize talent.
