The first crime scene was found, could solving the case be far behind?
It was within arm’s reach!
Because Lin Chuan had already examined the door lock, “There are no signs of forced entry on this lock, so the person with the key to the warehouse is very likely the murderer!”
Everyone simultaneously turned their gaze towards the warehouse manager.
This uncle in his fifties almost went weak at the knees and quickly said, “It’s not just me who has a key, Vice President Li also has one!”
Hu Daqiang returned to the police station with the relevant evidence, laughing heartily, to carry out the tests.
As expected!
The DNA of the victim was detected on the cardboard box.
The suspect was immediately identified.
The elderly warehouse manager, Vice President Li of Hengli Company.
After pinpointing the suspect, the case became much easier to crack, with just a search for related information and the corresponding evidence needed.
Knowing the answer, retracing the process is always somewhat simpler.
Eventually.
The evidence was incontrovertible, and Vice President Li of Hengli Company confessed to the crime.
Case solved!
…
As the evening advanced, a faint purple hue rose on the horizon.
Clouds like fish scales spread across the western half of the sky, turned red by the dying sun, emitting streaks of afterglow that fell upon the neatly arranged cityscape of Anling City.
Outside the police station, a crowd of journalists surrounded the area, making it impenetrable.
“Captain Hu, could you tell us your secret to solving cases so quickly?”
“Rumor has it that you enlisted the help of a genius detective; is that true?”
“Is this genius detective the same person who was nicknamed the Gambling King in the last anti-gambling campaign?”
“…”
Lin Chuan had been seen by quite a few people.
The last anti-gambling campaign had earned him the moniker of the Gambling King.
Many reporters from Anling City still had some recollection of him, so they all pursued the detectives of the Anling City Criminal Investigation Squadron for answers.
…
In the office of the Criminal Investigation Squadron.
Hu Daqiang’s smile was wider than an AK’s barrel, almost turning into a lopsided dragon king.
He personally brewed a fine cup of Longjing tea for Lin Chuan, chuckling, “Comrade Lin, we owe you big time for this case, or who knows how long it would have dragged on!”
Lin Chuan took the Longjing tea, took a sip, and honestly said, “Captain Hu, maybe you should give me a full subscription?”
“A full subscription?”
Hu Daqiang, who didn’t usually follow novels, didn’t understand the term ‘full subscription’.
“It means to subscribe to all of his novels, like that one ‘This Assassin Is Too Professional’,” explained Shen Qianqian with a smile.
After solving the case.
Shen Qianqian looked radiant, her tiredness gone, her high ponytail revealing her exquisitely beautiful face—an impressive and spirited police flower!
“A full subscription, no problem!”
Hu Daqiang laughed heartily, slipping in a bit of Cantonese, and then immediately pulled out his phone, fully subscribing to ‘This Assassin Is Too Professional’ under Shen Qianqian’s guidance.
After subscribing fully, Hu Daqiang squeezed his eyebrows, “Comrade Lin, I was wondering if you’re free tomorrow?”
Lin Chuan looked at Hu Daqiang with suspicion, “What’s up?”
Hu Daqiang grinned, seeming very amicable, “Comrade Lin, I’ll be frank with you, we’ve only solved one case; there are still two unsolved murders. The superiors are pressing hard, and the citizens of Anling City are waiting for a just outcome.”
“Captain Hu, this…” Lin Chuan’s lips twitched, seemingly reluctant to continue.
“Comrade Lin, what’s the matter?”
Hu Daqiang leaned in slightly, asking with concern.
Lin Chuan thought for a moment, “This would be a separate charge!”
I’m just a writer, how could I be solving cases with the police every day?
I need a raise!
