Chapter 537 - 537 494 Notification

537: 494 Chapter Notification 537: 494 Chapter Notification “According to Li Mingyu, the drug trafficking gang he knows of has at least two heads.

The big boss goes by the pseudonym Huang Li, and the smaller boss is nicknamed ‘Tea Guest.'”

“Huang Li is about in his thirties, not much hair, refined and mild-mannered, often wears glasses, and puts on a shirt for work.

He doesn’t always wear a suit, might have worked in a related industry before, but the specifics are unclear.

He’s vicious when it comes to business, willing to kill with his own hands.

Li Mingyu had seen him do it twice.”

“The ‘Tea Guest’ is said to recognize many types of drugs, a more technically skilled dealer.

He’s responsible for the technical work within the gang.

The ‘Tea Guest’ is about 50 years old, likes drinking tea, likes chatting, and is probably a local from Changyang.”

Bai Jian was sitting at the front of the conference room, delivering intelligence reports to several members including the narcotics squad.

He was still a bit nervous.

Having initiated such a big case himself, he was somewhat surprised and excited.

But the thought of taking over completely had vanished.

It wasn’t the danger he was worried about, but rather that the Criminal Police Brigade of Shiting County had around two hundred full-time officers, plus some auxiliary police.

Even if they could temporarily borrow people, they would likely struggle to handle such a big case.

What’s more important is that Bai Jian and his Criminal Police Brigade had been practically gutted.

They could handle small cases, but big ones would be courting disaster.

However, this did not prevent Captain Bai from enjoying his moment in front of his peers.

He held his head up slightly and said, “The Li Mingyu we’ve arrested is a core member of the Huang Li Drug Trafficking Gang and also a veteran member.

Since joining the gang eight years ago, he has worked as their gunman, clearing the way for their business…”

“Li Mingyu has confessed to killing six people, all of whom were disposed of by henchman Wang Qiliang in the old graves of Shiting County.

We suspect he’s hiding more.

However, our current focus is on the other members of his gang.”

“The members of the Huang Li Drug Trafficking Gang that Li Mingyu has seen and knows about number around 20.

They use an office building in Shuidong District as their base, equipped with a lot of surveillance and protective facilities, and the drug manufacturing equipment installed in the basement operates regularly.”

“Their main bottleneck seems to be that sourcing raw materials is relatively difficult, but they have multiple channels they’re trying…”

“As for the other criminal gang, we know very little.

We only know that within the team are Lao Gui and Wang Xingzhai who has already died.

This gang mainly traffics drugs in Changyang City and Shannan Province, but the details are still not very clear…”

Bai Jian said this with a hint of regret.

As a police officer, he actually wanted to be involved in cracking such major cases, but that was merely wishful thinking.

The narcotics side mostly just listened, and after hearing the briefing, they calmly said, “We’ve got the case from here now…”

“Captain Yang, we’ll wrap up the murder case on our own,” Yu Wenshu added.

“That will work,” replied the narcotics squad.

“When are you planning to close the case?” Chief Yu asked at that moment.

The other side, Captain Yang, hesitated for a few seconds, then said, “Soon, once we’ve clarified their personnel makeup and other details.”

“We can help,” Chief Yu replied, waiting for just that response.

Captain Yang frowned, “How so?”

Yu Wenshu nudged Jiang Yuan with his mouth and said, “Footprints, fingerprints, video, scene investigation, a whole set of experts.

You must have seen this case.”

Captain Yang nodded, “A very famous team, now we’ve seen the real deal.”

Looking at Jiang Yuan, Captain Yang was quite interested and asked, “Chief Yu, are you willing to let Jiang Yuan join us?”

“He was never mine to begin with, what’s there to let.” Yu Wenshu laughed, “Jiang Yuan is a detective from the Ningtai County Bureau.

I’ll give you a phone number, Huang Qiangmin, the head of their Criminal Police Brigade and also the vice head of the county bureau.

If you want to use Jiang Yuan, you should talk to him.”

Captain Yang took down the phone number simply, smiled at Jiang Yuan, and then negotiated with the other parties, clearly unaware of what he had just obtained.

Jiang Yuan wore a smile, innocently watching the others trade him off, without saying a word.

In a high-level meeting, there was no chance for him to speak.

Anything he had to say could be said to Huang Qiangmin later.

…

The next day.

Li Xiang returned from his days spent digging up graves in Shiting County, covered in dirt.

His work had been effective; the second and fourth bodies that proved crucial had been unearthed by him.

However, the later plan to search the grave soil for clues had failed, wasting a lot of Li Xiang’s time.

“It’s good that the case was solved,” Li Xiang met with Liu Jinghui and Jiang Yuan among others, and said with self-deprecating laughter, “Actually, I was close to a breakthrough too, ah, but it wasn’t in time.”

“Li, you worked hard.

Did you find something?” Liu Jinghui invited Li Xiang, now patting his back with a full smile.

Anyway, the case has been solved, so everyone can relax now.

Li Xiang could only force a bitter smile and say, “I found some cigarette butts and things like that in front of several graves, so I prepared to collect them all and then categorize them to do a batch of DNA tests.

I personally felt that maybe there would be a chance.”

“Haha, too bad,” Liu Jinghui listened and felt the chances were slim, but you never know.

Now that the case was over, there was no need to worry about these things anymore, so he didn’t need to make a judgment either.

“By the way, did you dig up the other two bodies?” Liu Jinghui was referring to the six bodies that Li Mingyu had confessed to.

Previously, they had dug up four bodies, so there were still two bodies underground.

As part of a homicide case, they naturally had to be exhumed.

Li Xiang shook his head and said, “Let them dig it up themselves.

The case turned out this way, I don’t want to see it anymore.

I’m going to give some instructions and then go home to rest.”

“Captain Li, let’s have a meal together.” Jiang Yuan had been listening the whole time and warmly invited him at this moment.

Li Xiang hesitated for a moment and said, “There’s no need for such trouble.

Coming out to help is part of the department’s duty at the provincial office…”

“Don’t be so polite.

I specifically ordered a meal.

It would be a waste not to come.” Jiang Yuan invited Liu Jinghui and others again, making sure of the number of people.

Evening.

Fulin Restaurant.

Jiang Yuan along with Huang Qiangmin, Liu Jinghui, Yu Wenshu, Li Xiang, and others, including Mu Zhiyang who often followed him around—all together nearly 20 people—gathered in one place.

It turned out to be quite lively.

Chef Sui Qing was also one of the chefs often invited by Jiang Fuzhen.

Once he received the order from Jiang Yuan, Fulin Restaurant naturally devoted its full energy to the meal.

Running a restaurant, especially a high-end one, boils down to catering to the rich.

Without people who can afford fine food, don’t expect to make money selling white flour buns.

Once Jiang Yuan and the others were seated, Sui Qing personally came forward to meet everyone, continuing to introduce dishes until several cold dishes were served.

The most awaited dish, “Buddha Jumps Over the Wall,” was brought up, then he said with a smile, “This ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’ actually has quite a story.

Many of the ingredients were from dishes my master made back in his days.

Although my master always insisted on making traditional dishes, the restaurant business got tougher.

Later, he specially preserved some ingredients and left them behind, and I ended up benefiting from that.”

After everyone had a serving of “Buddha Jumps Over the Wall” in front of them, Sui Qing picked a maw from the small serving in front of him and said, “Like this fish maw, there are a hundred or so types of fish maw in the world, but ‘Buddha Jumps Over the Wall’ tastes best with Turtle Fish Glue, which comes from large fish of about twenty pounds.

Back in my master’s day, Turtle Fish Glue was already rare, but he would never have imagined how rare it is now.”

Listening to this, Li Xiang couldn’t help but laugh and say, “Captain Jiang, hearing him talk like that, I’m afraid to eat it now.

The standards for this meal are too extravagant.”

“My dad said to treat everyone, and it’s his money too, so eat without worry,” Jiang Yuan bluntly admitted, behaving like a typical daddy’s boy.

But no one present found it inappropriate.

Isn’t it natural for the children of wealthy families to listen to their fathers?

“Everyone has worked hard.

There’s no special meaning this time; it’s mainly to treat you all to a meal and to thank everyone for their efforts,” Jiang Yuan said raising his glass and speaking a few courteous words, before handing over the reins of the gathering.

Li Xiang and a few others who were not very familiar with the group tried to sense the atmosphere and, finding it was indeed just a meal, were naturally happy and gradually relaxed, eating to their heart’s content.

Naturally, the conversation turned to the four exhumed bodies and the two they had yet to encounter.

Jiang Yuan seemed to remember something and turned to Huang Qiangmin saying, “Right, we should buy a specialized pot for boiling bodies.

An auto-heating one, like the tub-shaped, heated bathtubs ordinary families have, but with a lid and made from aluminum alloy.”

“No problem,” Huang Qiangmin agreed immediately, interpreting for himself, “So, you mean a bathtub that can be heated to 100 degrees, turning a bath into a boil?”

“More or less,” Jiang Yuan smiled and said, “It saves time compared to boiling with small pots and also prevents damaging the bones when disassembling.”

“Makes sense,” Huang Qiangmin said as he took a sip of the thick yellow soup from the “Buddha Jumps Over the Wall,” savoring it contentedly.

…

The Drug Enforcement Squadron didn’t need Jiang Yuan on the scene; they just handed over all their evidence, which they seemed to have gotten from somewhere, to him to deal with.

Footprints, fingerprints, photos of all kinds of tools…

Just one morning, the Drug Enforcement Squadron managed to fill a conference table in the forensics center with their materials, with just laptops taking up eight spots.

“We had already started investigating these two groups of people before, just not as thoroughly, and we weren’t clear about their specific hierarchy and personnel distribution…” A police officer from the Drug Enforcement Squadron said with a smile, “Because it’s been a while, the accumulated data is vast.

We don’t need to complete everything, whatever we can manage is enough.”

Perhaps because they had been paid, the Drug Enforcement Squadron threw as much related evidence as they had at Jiang Yuan without a hint of reluctance.

However, Jiang Yuan’s expression hardly changed, with Lv3 starting technology, there was no need to explain, just treat it like normal work.
