Chapter 560: Chapter 509: The Turtle in the Jar_3

The more significant and serious the case, the more it needs to be an ironclad one; otherwise, if a reversal pops up ten or eight years later, the explosion of this thunderbolt won’t just kill one or two people.

From this perspective, the Jianyuan case is actually the same. We need conclusive evidence, preferably catching Yuan Jiansheng and several hundred or thousand kilograms of drugs on the spot.

Otherwise, let’s not talk about the attitude of Qinghe City; would the thousands of workers of the Jianyuan Group be easily instigated? What would the stance be of Jianyuan’s upstream suppliers and downstream distributors?

It wasn’t just Liu Jinghui who was pondering; everyone else was also lost in thought.

Soon, Yu Wenshu had thought it through and said, "The Jianyuan Group is different from Huang Li; it must be handled cautiously. Huang Li could be wiped out swiftly and decisively, but not Jianyuan. With Jianyuan, we need to fight openly and honorably, without seeking quick success or taking shortcuts. Yuan Jiansheng must still be harbouring some vain hopes; he doesn’t know our task force’s progress and is probably guessing..."

Looking around at everyone, Yu Wenshu continued, "In fact, we are not afraid of his guessing or his actions, because whatever he does provides an excellent opportunity to gather evidence. My suggestion is to be ready to arrest at any time, but for the time being, do not, and instead prioritize collecting more evidence—the more, the better."

"I agree with this plan." Yin, another heavyweight at the meeting, said, "In fact, Jianyuan Group is already like a turtle in a jar. Arresting them now and convicting them through interrogation and confession might take months and is not very valuable; the gains would be too little. It’s better to let them struggle and see what splashes they can make. After all, it’s all about collecting evidence. Right now, we just need to guard against three things: first, prevent their gang members from fleeing; second, prevent the loss of drugs and drug funds; and third, prevent them from destroying important evidence."

"These three points are all not simple." Yu Wenshu laughed.

"Such a massive drug case; it’s normal to be complicated." Yin replied with a faint smile.

"If we choose this route, there’s actually another benefit." Liu Jinghui allowed a hint of his inner deductive air to surface and continued, "An old fox like Yuan Jiansheng probably wouldn’t depend solely on the Huang Li gang."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought.

Liu Jinghui went on, "Jianyuan manufacturing their own drugs and even attempting direct sales led to Wang Xingzhai’s murder. Such a boundary-pushing probe means Yuan Jiansheng must have prepared for it. What’s the capital he contends with the Huang Li gang? Does he have other drug dealers? This is also worth focusing our investigation on."

"Right."

"Indeed possible."

The crowd nodded in agreement once more.

Feeling affirmed, Liu Jinghui’s spirits lifted slightly as he proposed, "In light of this, I suggest a gradually tightening encirclement starting from the periphery, focusing on physical evidence supplemented by confessions, using the few arrested suspects as a breakthrough to keep pressing closer to Yuan Jiansheng."

Liu Jinghui looked towards Jiang Yuan and said, "How much evidence we can find from them now depends on Doctor Jiang."

"Yes." Jiang Yuan replied.

Hearing Jiang Yuan’s voice, Yu Wenshu couldn’t help but smile kindly, "With Jiang Yuan’s help in securing the physical evidence, I’m sure it will be much easier for all of us."

"I’ll do my best." Jiang Yuan remained modest.

Listening to Jiang Yuan, everyone present inexplicably felt their somewhat anxious mood relax a little.

Upon reflection, if a body unearthed from an ancient tomb in Shiting County could lead all the way to the boss of the Jianyuan Group, what was so difficult about solving a case with such an incredible forensic doctor on the team?

Once the drug-trafficking gang gets approached, their ability to destroy evidence just won’t cut it. At least, when facing a criminal technician like Jiang Yuan, they would stand absolutely no chance.
