It was three days ago when Wu Congwen was arrested, but Shen Yan only found out this morning that it was Lu Chuan who shot and wounded Wu Congwen, leading to his arrest.

They basically chatted on WeChat every day, but Lu Chuan never mentioned this matter on WeChat.

Shen Yan heard about it from Wang Changjiang when she went to work this morning.

Then, Forensic Doctor Shen ran to the crime scene investigation office.

Seeing Lu Chuan come in, Shen Yan quickly stood up and looked him up and down, her big eyes full of concern.

"Shen Yan, why are you here?"

Lu Chuan was somewhat surprised to see Shen Yan in the office.

Shen Yan's vacation had just ended, and Lu Chuan was the one who drove to pick her up this morning.

Looking at the time, they actually hadn't been apart for long.

"You..."

Shen Yan looked at Lu Chuan: "The arrest... why didn't you mention it?"

Huh?

So that's what this is about.

"Oh, it's nothing major, just a task."

"Besides, you see, I'm perfectly fine..."

While they were talking, Liu Guodong and the other two went out for a smoke.

"Hey," Old Bai took out three cigarettes, full of emotion: "Being young is really nice."

Liu Guodong and Yang Sen took the cigarettes and nodded in agreement.

"Old Liu? Why are you smoking outside?"

Seeing Wang Changjiang coming up from the stairwell, Liu Guodong gestured toward the office door: "Your precious apprentice is in there."

"Oh, you guys smoking Zhonghua every day isn't good... got one for me?"

Lu Chuan and Shen Yan were talking inside the office, while Liu Guodong, Wang Changjiang, and others were talking outside.

Wu Congwen was speaking in the interrogation room.

"The one who ordered me to kill was Jiang Tian, the chairman of Haizhou Pharmaceutical Company."

"Why did he order you to kill?"

"Because Wang Liang and Chen Gang were arrested, and Wang Liang's wife approached me, hoping for help from the people behind me."

"Tell us the specifics, what's Jiang Tian's relationship with the cases of Wang Liang, Chen Gang, and why did he order you to kill Wang Liang's wife, Chen Gang's uncle, and the Zhao Dong couple from Yumin Village?"

"Well, Wang Liang's business wasn't really connected to us, Jiang Tian didn't care about the money from selling organs."

"Wang Liang's wife and Chen Gang's uncle are uncle and niece, they used to trade herbal medicine."

"But in recent years, the management of herbal medicine cultivation has become more regulated, like the farmers in Qingquan County, they now collaborate directly with manufacturers, and the finished herbal medicine is purchased by the manufacturers directly."

"The profit for middlemen got lower, seven years ago..."

It turned out, as the herbal medicine business became tougher, Chen Gang's uncle came up with other ideas.

"They had the Zhao Dong couple rally a few farmers to cultivate... grow prohibited herbs in the mountains."

"Prohibited herbs?"

Wu Congwen nodded: "Haizhou Pharmaceutical has a special supply drug called Seven-Nine Detoxification Spirit, it's actually a low-density illicit drug. Jiang Tian arranged for me to contact Wang Liang's wife and Chen Gang's uncle directly, and they purchased herbal medicine from Zhao Dong."

"Where do they plant it?"

"In caves in the mountains, using soilless cultivation methods, outsiders can't find it at all."

"Where's the production and processing done?"

"I don't know this part, as I'm affiliated with Tiankang Pharmacy, I only handle the procurement and transportation of raw materials for Haizhou Pharmaceutical, but they should be producing it at their factory, I always deliver the stuff directly to the factory."

"When Wang Liang got arrested, his wife came to me, Jiang Tian was afraid of getting implicated, so he ordered me to kill them all."

"Now, tell me about your previous cases."

"Previously?"

Wu Congwen looked at Ren Qiang in shock: "I've never killed anyone before."

"Never killed anyone?"

Ren Qiang sneered: "Wu Congwen, since you've chosen to confess, don't hold back anything."

"The murders of Wang Liang's wife, Chen Gang's uncle, and the Zhao Dong couple were clean and efficient, clearly not something a first-time killer could pull off."

"At this point, hiding it serves no purpose. After Jiang Tian is arrested, do you think he won't confess?"

Just as Ren Qiang said, Wu Congwen's methods in murder were clean and efficient, definitely not for a first-timer.

But everyone holds out hope for a miracle, and even though Wu Congwen knew he was undoubtedly facing the death penalty, he still hoped that disclosing a little less might help.

But thinking about Jiang Tian...

Why let him take the credit?

"Three years ago, I did kill someone else."

"Who?"

"One of Jiang Tian's subordinates, named Sun Biao, this guy got involved with Jiang Tian's wife, and I stuffed him in a cement barrel and sank it into the Happy Reservoir in Qingquan County."

"Anything else?"

"Seven years ago, the year I started working with Jiang Tian, I killed someone I didn't know."

"Someone you didn't know?"

Wu Congwen nodded: "Someone I didn't know, at that time we were checking herbal plantings in a mountain cave, and when we came out, we were spotted by a hiker, so I killed him."

"Exactly where, and how did you dispose of the body?"

"In Qingquan County North Suburb, the body was directly buried in the cave."

Ren Qiang exhaled: "Anything else?"

"Really, nothing else, I've only killed these people, all under Jiang Tian's orders."

"One last question... why did you feed and water Zhao Dong's cattle pen?"

If Wu Congwen hadn't fed the cattle and sawed water buckets into troughs after killing the Zhao Dong couple, who knows when he would have been caught.

"That cow... it used to be mine, I gave it to Zhao Dong, and after killing him, I was afraid no one would take care of the cow and it would starve."

"Where did you get the homemade gun you used?"

"Jiang Tian gave it to me, said it was for self-defense."

"The gun and bullets were all from him, I usually carry them with me, and there's still fifty bullets hidden in the floor tiles under my bed at home..."

The information Wu Congwen confessed far exceeded the special task force's expectations.

Everyone knows what kind of company Haizhou Pharmaceutical is.

Not just in Haizhou City, it's also very famous throughout the province.

The root of this fame is precisely the Seven-Nine Detoxification Spirit Wu Congwen just mentioned.

As Haizhou City's star enterprise, Haizhou Pharmaceutical's chairman, Jiang Tian, is a legendary figure.

Returning from studying abroad ten years ago, he took over the family's near-bankrupt pharmaceutical factory, and with his patents, monopolized large overseas markets in just three years.

From a dying enterprise to a star export company, Haizhou Pharmaceutical took only three years.

But who would have thought that such a company, such a star drug, would use prohibited materials for its raw ingredients?

Li Donglin immediately reported the relevant case information to the provincial department and is now holding a video conference in the meeting room.

Involvement with Haizhou Pharmaceutical, a case about the head of a billion-dollar pharmaceutical company, is no longer something a mere criminal investigation director can decide on his own.

Fortunately, this drug hasn't been listed domestically yet.

Otherwise...

How many people would be implicated is anyone's guess.

But even so, Jiang Tian's bold illegal activities with Haizhou Pharmaceutical, the impact was unimaginably bad.

Not to mention that someone responsible for drug inspections is bound to face serious consequences.
