I Play Dungeons in the Police Station

Chapter 67: Who Would Say No to More Credit?


Pet training system?

Could I possibly use the system to train Coal Ball?

At this moment, Coal Ball wasn't by his side, so Li Xiang couldn't experiment and had to give it up for now.

Exiting the game and returning to reality, Li Xiang suddenly had a feeling of 'timelessness in the mountains', realizing that half a year had passed in the game. Upon returning to reality, he suddenly felt a temporal dislocation.

Such a long time passed within the game, while in reality, it was merely a fleeting moment, almost negligible.

To what level has technology developed for someone to invent such a game?

Li Xiang couldn't help but question the existence of this game, but there wasn't a single clue.

No matter who invented this game, whether playing it is dangerous or not, these aren't important. What matters is that he now enjoys the benefits this game brings him.

From an obscure auxiliary police officer to achieving some accomplishments now, all of this was completed within just two short months.

The next day, Li Xiang woke up naturally in the hotel, or rather, was awakened by hunger.

Checking his phone, he saw two missed calls, both from Captain Yu, which he hadn't answered.

Last night, he played the game for half a year straight, and his mindset wasn't adjusted properly. So, when he went to sleep last night, he put his phone on silent do-not-disturb and had an especially sound sleep.

Upon seeing the missed calls, he got up to wash up while calling back.

"Captain Yu, hello, I just fell asleep and didn't hear it. Do you need something?"

"I guessed you were sleeping. You've been exhausted these days, right? Anyway, if you have time, come to the Jinling City Public Security Bureau. We need you to help take a statement regarding the situation that happened that day."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Li Xiang quickly tidied up, then went out to a nearby breakfast shop and bought two buns to fill his stomach.

After eating, Li Xiang hailed a cab and went to the Jinling City Public Security Bureau.

The bureau was bustling, as such a big case had every nerve in the department tense, cautious in words and actions, focused on the work.

Upon seeing Li Xiang, those who recognized him greeted him proactively.

One could say that Li Xiang's reputation at the Jinling City Public Security Bureau was even greater than at the Jinghai City Public Security Bureau.

Twice, he left a deep impression on his colleagues in Jinling.

"Li Xiang, hope we're not disturbing your rest. The higher-ups are pushing quite urgently; they want to close the case quickly and minimize its societal impact."

"I understand."

Recently, the case has been front-page news across major outlets. Given the numerous victims, many of whom were women, and the gruesome methods of the crime, the case generated enormous online discussion, causing an extremely negative impact.

There was even skepticism about the reputation of the city of Jinling, which was unacceptable to senior leaders. It is essential to know that part of Jinling City's fiscal revenue relies on tourism. Nowadays, when netizens read about Jinling tourism online, the unanimous response is: We'll be rooked if we go to Jinling, being rooked is minor, but getting harmed is major.

After completing the statement with the help of Captain Yu and Mao Ji, Li Xiang curiously asked, "What's with that person? How could he be so ruthless?"

Although he apprehended the person, he didn't conduct the interrogation, and he felt very curious about this case.

Indeed, such major cases are rare.

"That kid didn't have a mother since he was little, and after his father's business failed, he succumbed to depression. Since then, his mindset gradually twisted. He used to be enthusiastic about making figurines, but later became obsessed with dolls, yet he despised the lack of texture in doll skin, which then led him to target real people."

Behind every tragic criminal case is a sorrowful story, but it's not deserving of pity.

"How did he manage to lure those people over?"

"By cracking his phone, we discovered he created an online persona of a second-generation rich kid, claiming his family owned a processing factory. He'd start online romances then arrange offline meetings, expressing intentions to buy an abandoned factory to set up another processing plant. He'd invite the woman to visit, even promising her shares. Typically, young women inexperienced in the world can't resist this kind of temptation and generally were successfully lured. He then set the meeting location near the factory area, trapped them inside the factory, and inflicted harm. We've found all the victims' families, sigh, a tragic case."

Even Yu Chengzhang, with ten years of experience in criminal investigation, encountered such a tragic case for the first time and still sighed with emotion whenever he spoke about it.

Encountering such a major case in his lifetime was indeed notable.

"Thanks to your persistence, otherwise more girls would have unknowingly met their demise."

Given that the suspects selected women nationwide through the internet without any pattern, local police stations wouldn't open investigations for a single disappearance case. This allowed the perpetrator to remain at large.

There was only Li Xiang in Jinghai City, who, out of boredom, thought the victim was trapped in a pyramid scheme, thereby accidentally cracking the case.

"I didn't expect the truth to be like this. I always thought Wang Liping was dragged into a pyramid scheme. Now that she's gone, her family must be devastated!"

"Yes, Zhao Yin already went to Wang Liping's family, initially explained some circumstances, and they are now on their way to Jinling to identify the body. If you don't have anything else, you could head back to Jinghai. Director Song is waiting for you at home."

"Waiting for me for what?"

"Don't play dumb; cracking such a significant case puts you at the forefront. The impact of this case is so vast that even the Ministry of Public Security is paying attention. Your achievement is no small matter. I heard from Director Song that the provincial department plans to recommend you for a first-class merit."

"First-class merit? That might not be appropriate!"

Having just earned a second-class merit, with the bonus not yet received, and now a first-class merit comes along.

Li Xiang was being modest with his words, but he was truly overjoyed inside.

Who would ever mind having too much merit?

The more, the better.

"Don't play humble after getting a bargain. You're just an auxiliary police officer raking in merits until your hands go numb. If you keep flaunting, even I might want to punch you. Now hurry back."

"Wait a minute, what about Sun Zhidong? He also put in a lot of effort this time."

Just as Li Xiang was about to leave, he suddenly remembered Sun Zhidong was still in the hospital, and he was significantly injured because of this case. He promised to lead him to achievements, can't let the credit go all to himself while Sun Zhidong suffers alone—he'd go mad over that!

"Sun Zhidong had a tough time too, the leadership naturally remembers him. A second-class merit shouldn't be a problem either."

The nature of this case was extremely severe, with more than ten victims in total, classifying it as a major case. Rewarding a first-class merit and a second-class merit is entirely justified.

Especially since Li Xiang discovered the case first, giving Jinghai City Public Security Bureau considerable leverage in the discourse on this case. Director Song will also strive to ensure their rights at crucial moments.
