What kind of person is Wang Chuanmin? Among the ten or so Criminal Investigation Team leaders in the province, apart from the one in the provincial capital, who else could he serve?

Today, coming all this way to speak kindly to me, he definitely has something up his sleeve.

Damn, bullshit with some crap mixed in... I was careless.

But, after making such bold claims, I can't take them back now.

Qin Yong smiled, his gaze firm: "Captain Wang, just say the word. As long as it's something we can help with, we won't refuse."

"Haha, Captain Qin, you're straight to the point. That's exactly what I'm waiting for."

Wang Chuanmin laughed, turned around, and looked at his subordinate: "Captain Qin, Zhao Ming has been stationed in Haizhou City for a week and has made some discoveries."

Captain Qin nodded, aware of this matter.

Qin Yong knew Zhao Ming too, who was the leader of the action group of the Criminal Investigation Team in Tianzhou City.

Similar to the positions of Ren Qiang and Sun Jun.

"This case is an extension of the skeleton identification case Lu Chuan helped us with before the National Day festival."

Wang Chuanmin looked at Zhao Ming beside him: "Zhao Ming, please inform Captain Qin about the situation."

"Yes!"

Zhao Ming looked like a very capable middle-aged man, with very short hair, bright eyes, and a wide forehead.

However, maybe he had endured for too long, as his eyes were a bit dark.

"Captain Qin, before the National Day festival, we discovered a skeleton at a highway expansion site."

Zhao Ming glanced at Lu Chuan: "Comrade Lu Chuan assisted us with the skeleton identification analysis, confirming the identity of the skeleton."

"The deceased was named Wang Jun, a former employee at the Construction Bureau of Tianzhou City. During the investigation of his interpersonal relationships, we found that the deceased has a surviving illegitimate daughter named Liang Qi."

"We found that the deceased mailed a package sixteen years ago, just after he resigned and went abroad."

"And the package may very likely hold the truth behind Wang Jun's murder."

"The package's recipient was Liang Qi's mother, who passed away three years ago."

"So, now the package is likely in Liang Qi's possession."

"However, on the night we found out she existed, the person disappeared."

Disappeared?

Qin Yong's brow furrowed: "Disappeared on the very night you uncovered the information?"

Wang Chuanmin's face already looked very grim. The painstakingly acquired police information was somehow also known by the other party.

How did they know?

"The relevant departments over there in Tianzhou City have already begun internal investigation procedures."

"But many knew the information, and the investigation hasn't yet resulted in anything."

"Has the other party come to Haizhou City?"

Zhao Ming nodded: "We've tracked a suspicious vehicle; the other party might be hiding the person in Haizhou City."

"We set up surveillance at the house of a mistress of the suspect in Haizhou City for a week but found nothing."

Qin Yong nodded, aware that the Tianzhou City's Criminal Investigation Team had followed regulations in notifying Haizhou City's team before they came for surveillance.

However, the content wasn't this detailed.

"Captain Wang, what do you need us to help you with?"

"Find the person."

Wang Chuanmin spoke directly: "The person who kidnapped Liang Qi hasn't returned to find his mistress but has hidden away."

"Now, only by finding him, finding Liang Qi, and finding the package can the investigation of the case continue."

Lu Chuan and others like Li Kai and Wang Changjiang present said nothing.

Even though Lu Chuan hadn't experienced this kind of case, he knew that a kidnapping was just one part of the whole ring.

Why was Wang Jun killed sixteen years ago, what secrets lie in the package, who is involved.

Also, on the night the Tianzhou City Team found out about Wang Jun's illegitimate daughter Liang Qi, the other party already knew about Liang Qi's existence.

What does this mean? It's simply chilling to think about.

The Tianzhou City's Criminal Investigation Team... they're in big trouble this time.

No wonder the dignified team leader of the Tianzhou City Team personally came to Haizhou City for help.

It's not just about cross-regional law enforcement; he can no longer determine who can be trusted and who cannot.

"Additionally," Wang Chuanmin looked at Lu Chuan, "We might need some technical support."

Qin Yong nodded solemnly: "Captain Wang, rest assured, I will provide full support from this side."

After a moment of contemplation, Qin Yong looked at Lu Chuan again and then thought for a while: "I don't have any cases on my hands at the moment."

"How about this, I'll draw Group Leader Ren from the Action Two Group, along with team member Zhang Hui, and... Lu Chuan, and have all three assist you in your work in Haizhou City, how's that?"

Upon hearing Qin Yong's promise, Wang Chuanmin's face flashed with surprise.

Especially as Wang Chuanmin glanced at Lu Chuan, realizing Captain Qin must have invested heavily.

Lu Chuan's skeleton identification analysis report was later sent to Zhang Yuanchao originally for help with verification.

In conclusion, the person returned it saying, with such a detailed process and precise conclusions, what's there to verify.

Even though Wang Chuanmin doesn't know Lu Chuan's other technical skills, solely with this, he could qualify as an expert.

The short meeting ended.

Lu Chuan returned to the Crime Scene Investigation office.

"Lu, is it a case from the Tianzhou City Investigation Team?"

Although Old Bai was older, his curiosity was quite strong.

This is what it means for a person to be aged but not his heart—many of the clients on Tongguan Road are elderly gentlemen beyond sixty.

Lu Chuan nodded, picked up the thermos bottle and filled Liu Guodong's enamel mug with water: "Master, Captain Qin has pulled me along with Group Leader Ren, Zhang Hui, to assist the arrivals from Tianzhou City in handling the case."

Upon hearing this, Liu Guodong raised an eyebrow: "That's a good opportunity."

Yang Sen also spoke up: "Our team has a strong relationship with those from Tianzhou, often inviting them for technical support. Captain Qin owes quite a few favors."

Old Bai took a sip of tea: "Old Yang is right, Captain Qin is clearly showing his regard by naming you for assistance this time."

Liu Guodong nodded in agreement: "Also, these case assists, whether there's credit or not, it doesn't depend on you, even if the case isn't solved."

"It's a good job."

Lu Chuan obediently served water to the three seniors.

This is where the importance of elders shows.

Experience is often more crucial than ability.

Just like those little babies in the small homes along Tongguan Road, not knowing the depth, only boldly poking inside.

But with an elder leading, it makes a huge difference.

Where it's tender, where it's fresh, no need to probe around, just go straight up.

Just like how Lu Chuan knows which flamingo lily in the office is more delicate, holding it reveals that.

Next, Old Bai started chatting about the rise to power of the leaders who walked out of the Crime Scene Investigation office.

"Take Wang Bureau, for instance, back in the day he got transferred to the city bureau, and within a few years returned as a team leader..."

"So..."

Ring, ring, ring.

The office phone rang, interrupting Old Bai's valuable experience sharing.

Liu Guodong glanced at the caller ID and knew it was the office director.

"Hmm? Right now?"

"Okay, okay, I'll send him over immediately."

Hanging up the phone, Liu Guodong looked at Lu Chuan: "The team leader wants you in his office."

Lu Chuan looked at the wall clock in confusion: "...I just got back, hasn't even been ten minutes?"

Saying it, Lu Chuan swiftly tidied up in front of the dressing mirror and left the office.

Watching Lu Chuan head out, Old Bai smacked his lips: "Seems like, before I retire, our office will still have to do with the three of us."

Yang Sen nodded in agreement: "Old Liu, you'd better quickly find another person."

Liu Guodong sighed: "I'll see about that."

On the other side, Lu Chuan knocked on the door of Qin Yong's office once again.
