CHAPTER 42: CHAPTER 42: WE’LL SOLVE THIS SUSPENSE CASE OURSELVES!

minutes later.

Under Li Jian’s leadership, Mr. Guan and his team arrived at the Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation Team’s conference room.

As soon as they walked in, all the criminal investigation team members stood up.

Instantly, the conference room was filled with thunderous applause.

Initially, Mr. Guan planned to lead an all-star team from the criminal investigation field to Jiangcheng, to command and solve cases.

Unexpectedly.

This is like having excellent skills but no battlefield to demonstrate them.

At this moment.

Faced with such warm applause, he felt a bit embarrassed instead.

After everyone took their seats, Captain Li Jian said, "Comrades, Mr. Guan from the provincial criminal investigation division has taken time from his busy schedule, leading experts from across the province to guide us in Jiangcheng. This is a great honor for our Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation."

"Next, let’s once again warmly welcome Mr. Guan and his team."

Then, the conference room resounded with enthusiastic applause again.

In the third row of the conference room, Jiang An and Zhang Yean sat together.

Zhang Yean, while clapping, whispered, "The person sitting next to Mr. Guan is my uncle, the forensic expert Mr. Zhou."

Jiang An nodded and said, "He seems very knowledgeable."

"Of course, he’s the first university graduate in our family, and he studied in Germany. During his studies abroad, he dissected over 500 foreigners."

"Impressive! We should learn from Mr. Zhou!"

After the applause, Mr. Guan said, "The case of the Jiangcheng Information Technology College female student Li Yan being murdered has received high attention from the top. It’s very complex. I was specially notified yesterday afternoon to lead elite forces to Jiangcheng to assist in the investigation."

"Before coming to Jiangcheng, we also understood the related circumstances of this case. It’s indeed very complicated."

"The perpetrator has strong anti-detection capabilities, and the case is very confusing."

"This was also the main reason for the initial misdirection in Jiangcheng’s criminal investigation."

After a slight pause, Mr. Guan said solemnly, "I was given a three-day deadline to solve the case."

"To be honest, before setting out, I wasn’t confident we could solve the case within three days."

He specifically glanced at Li Jian and said with a smile, "However, what surprised me greatly was that the day hasn’t even ended, and you already solved the case!"

"Moreover, the suspect is already in custody!"

"This is simply beyond expectations!"

He then turned his head to look at the criminal investigation experts beside him and said, "This has surprised all of us."

"However, now I am very curious."

"How did Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation solve this case overnight and even have the suspect arrested?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the others sitting next to Mr. Guan all started nodding, their faces full of curiosity.

Compared to the leaders who focus on the case results, these academic researchers are more concerned about the process of solving the case.

Finally, Mr. Guan looked at Li Jian and said, "Now, let’s invite Captain Li to tell us the entire process of solving the case."

"We also want to learn about the advanced crime-solving experience of Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation."

Hearing this, Captain Li Jian straightened his chest.

After working in criminal investigation for so many years, he had never been so honored as today.

This is simply the highlight of his career in the past few decades!

This case almost led him to a dead end.

Thinking back now, Li Jian still has lingering fears.

He remembered that when Mr. Guan called him yesterday, Mr. Guan was very angry and had quite a few complaints about Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation.

Unexpectedly, in less than 24 hours, Mr. Guan’s attitude made a 180-degree turn.

Happy and excited!

Suddenly, he felt a sense of vindication!

Captain Li Jian smiled and said, "First of all, a big thank you to Mr. Guan for recognizing and praising our Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation."

"Our Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation has always grown and improved under the care of Mr. Guan and the experts! Again, we express our deep gratitude."

"The case-solving process this time was very complicated, and the perpetrator’s method was highly deceptive."

"However, our Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation team has always adhered to a scientific, rigorous, and pragmatic attitude. We seek the truth and get to the bottom of things during the case investigation."

"After identifying the toxic rodent poison in the victim’s body, we immediately initiated the homicide investigation mechanism."

"Then, we split into three teams, analyzing the victim Li Yan’s life, study, social interactions, and scene evidence, progressing side by side, characterizing the suspect’s features, pinpointing targeted individuals, and finally opening the breakthrough of the case."

"This successful case resolution is the result of the collective effort of our Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation."

"However, in a crucial moment, Jiang An of the criminal investigation team proposed decisive evidence and discovered the path of the rodent poison entering the body."

"During the suspect characterization phase, he persisted in his opinion, conducted in-depth reasoning, meticulous analysis, and paved the way for the case resolution."

With these words, Mr. Guan suddenly asked, "Who is Jiang An?"

Being named by the big shot, Jiang An immediately stood up and saluted with his right hand.

"Hello, Mr. Guan! I am Jiang An, the forensic scientist!"

Mr. Guan looked at Jiang An and smiled.

Other criminal investigation experts also curiously looked at Jiang An.

Especially Mr. Zhou from the forensic department, who thought of the high-quality forensic analysis report he received a few days ago, nodded in satisfaction.

Mr. Guan waved his hand, signaling Jiang An to sit down.

Of course, he knew that anyone whose name was mentioned twice by Li Jian in the case report must have played a decisive role in the case-solving process.

Mr. Guan said, "After hearing what Captain Li just said about the case-solving process, finding crucial evidence at key moments and using existing clues to analyze and characterize the suspect is the essence of solving the case."

He turned his head to look at the surrounding criminal investigation experts and said, "Jiangcheng’s case-solving experience is indeed worth promoting and learning."

Peers nodded in agreement.

Finally, Mr. Guan said, "The facts prove that Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation is a highly combat-ready team, a team capable of winning battles, and a team full of talents, passing on from generation to generation."

"I propose we once again give a round of applause to congratulate the successful resolution of this case and commend Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation’s excellent performance."

After the meeting concluded, Mr. Guan and his team had lunch and decided to return to the provincial city.

At 2:10 in the afternoon.

At the entrance of the Jiangcheng City Bureau, Li Jian and Chen He came to the door to wave goodbye.

Watching the two black business cars blend into the traffic, Chen He suddenly said, "Mr. Li, since so many big shots came from the higher-ups, why didn’t you ask them to advise on that family massacre case?"

Captain Li Jian lit a cigarette and said, "We’ll do it ourselves."

"If they participated in guiding it, wouldn’t the credit go to them?"

"Mr. Li, that family massacre case is very complex!"

"Don’t worry! We’ve now infused new blood into our team."
