Criminal Investigation Team.

Office of Qin Yong.

"At that time, Lu discovered last year's thief Chen Qing, who stole over fifty electric bikes on Friendship Road. That kid is familiar with the Huilong Mountain area. Based on his information, we found the suspected hideout of Tian Yongjiang."

Zhang Hui began to report the entire process.

"It turned out that Chen Qing's information was accurate. The warehouse where Tian Yongjiang was hiding was indeed our confirmed second target."

Actually, Zhang Hui felt somewhat fortunate.

At that time, Tian Yongjiang was not in the warehouse.

If they had acted right then, rescuing Liang Qi wouldn't have been a problem.

But it would have alerted the enemy, and Tian Yongjiang might have escaped again.

"I escorted Chen Qing to the Huilong Mountain Police Station, while Lu Chuan was responsible for surveillance."

"In fact, Lu Chuan's surveillance position was more than a hundred meters away from the warehouse, hiding in the shadow of the eaves, so he wouldn't alert the enemy."

"But unexpectedly, someone came out to buy cigarettes and asked Lu Chuan for a light."

"Lu himself didn't make any mistakes, but the other party got suspicious from Lu's cigarettes and appearance."

Hearing Zhang Hui talk about this, Lu Chuan was still upset.

Even being rich and handsome didn't work out.

Of course, in terms of the stakeout's details, Lu Chuan indeed had some slip-ups.

"On my way to escort Chen Qing, I ran into Vice Director Wang from the Huilong Mountain Police Station, and just handed the person over to him."

"As the fight started, I happened to make it back in time and subdued Tian Yongjiang with Lu Chuan."

The entire process was described by Zhang Hui very meticulously.

"I, as the person in charge of the action group, didn't take good care of Lu Chuan, and that's my responsibility."

Zhang Hui stood up and saluted: "I request the team to discipline me."

Lu Chuan was slightly taken aback. He didn't expect Zhang Hui to voluntarily ask for disciplinary action.

In the car, they had agreed that he would be the one disciplined.

"Captain Qin, Brother Hui told me to be cautious, but I didn't listen. You should discipline me!"

"Haha," Zhang Hui didn't stop Lu Chuan: "Lu, I told you in the car because I wanted you to remember."

"The team has its rules. You are from Crime Scene Investigation, and this time you were seconded for the operation. I am the one responsible, and the discipline would not befall you."

"Captain Qin..."

Lu Chuan still wanted to speak but was interrupted by Qin Yong waving a hand: "Zhang Hui is right."

"As the team leader, leaving you alone at the scene was indeed negligence."

"Later, I will organize a meeting to discuss the disciplinary actions."

"Alright, you two may leave first."

Outside the office, Zhang Hui patted Lu Chuan on the shoulder: "It's alright, I've messed up before too, and it was Brother Qiang who covered for me."

"In time, when you have apprentices, it will be the same."

Zhang Hui waved his hand and returned directly to Action Group Two.

Lu Chuan stood in the hallway, feeling somewhat lost.

Technically speaking, with the skills he mastered, Lu Chuan was considered one of the top in the whole Criminal Investigation Team.

Footprint analysis, skeletal identification, fingerprint identification, et cetera—Lu Chuan surpassed Liu Guodong and others in all these areas.

Although others didn't know, Lu Chuan had an inner sense of superiority.

And at this moment, that smug superiority was shattered by Zhang Hui.

Technically speaking, Lu Chuan surpassed most of the Criminal Investigation Team.

But in terms of growing as a detective, Lu Chuan still had a long way to go.

Crime Scene Investigation Office.

Liu Guodong poured Lu Chuan a cup of strong tea: "So, was Zhang Hui criticized?"

Lu Chuan's expression froze: "Master... you knew all along?"

Lu Chuan had already recounted the entire incident to Liu Guodong and others when he returned.

But after listening, they didn't have much to comment.

"Of course I knew, he was leading the team. If something went wrong, who else should be disciplined?"

Old Bai, holding an enamel cup, approached with a smile: "This form of discipline is a bigger warning than one to you personally."

Yang Sen nodded: "You make mistakes and drag others down, so you won't dare to make mistakes again in the future."

Lu Chuan nodded in realization.

Indeed, with this experience, Lu Chuan would never make a similar mistake again.

The result of the disciplinary action came out even before the afternoon shift ended.

Zhang Hui's performance for the month was docked, and there was an internal team notice of criticism.

Lu Chuan also had his performance docked for the month, and there was an internal team notice of criticism.

Of course, alongside, there was also a commendation result.

Merit for merit, fault for fault, there is no offsetting in this Criminal Investigation Team.

The nature of the Tian Yongjiang case was extremely malicious.

Whether his kidnapping of Liang Qi was for the package sixteen years ago is yet to be determined.

He stabbed the investigative detectives and conducted inhuman persecution of Liang Qi.

Being able to capture him was indeed a significant achievement.

Especially since the main responsibility for the case belonged to Tianzhou City's Criminal Investigation Team, involving cross-city joint ops.

The level of reward should be higher than in other cases.

And the roles Lu Chuan and Zhang Hui played in the entire capture process were substantial, both being very important.

Without Lu Chuan, Chen Qing couldn't be caught, nor could Tian Yongjiang's hideout be found.

Without Zhang Hui, with only Lu Chuan's experience, they couldn't extract useful information from Chen Qing.

Then there was the capture process of Tian Yongjiang; although Lu Chuan was a bit reckless, if he hadn't acted that way.

Allowing Tian Yongjiang to return to the warehouse, with Liang Qi as a hostage, capturing him would have been much more challenging than Zhang Hui just kicking him.

Zhang Hui and Lu Chuan, each received a citywide commendation notice.

Though it wasn't enough to achieve a third-class merit, this commendation notice also came with a certificate.

Commonly known as an award.

The most significant mental encouragement below third-class merit.

Of course, this news was brought back by Qin Yong, and it would take at least a few weeks for the commendation notice to come down.

In the evening.

Haizhou International Grand Hotel.

The entire Action Group Two and Crime Scene Investigation Office gathering for a meal.

Lu Chuan was footing the bill.

"Brother Hui, this glass is to thank you for saving my life!"

Even if Zhang Hui hadn't made it back, Lu Chuan might not necessarily have been unable to handle Tian Yongjiang, but who knows about unseen events.

Zhang Hui waved his hand: "Chuan, there's no need to be formal. When we go out for investigations, we need to look out for each other. There's no such thing as saving a life."

"If you put it that way, Brother Qiang has saved me a dozen times at least!"

"Besides, if you hadn't caught Chen Qing, whether we could capture Tian Yongjiang is still uncertain, haha!"

"Come, everyone together..."

The hosts and guests were all having a good time.

Of course, Liu Guodong and others rarely came to a place like Haizhou International Hotel.

Some had never even eaten here.

They couldn't help it; the food was too expensive.

Crime Scene Investigation and Action Group Two, around twenty people in total.

A large table, at least twenty to thirty thousand.

If you count the Maotai wine, this meal could match a month's salary for everyone.

Although the food and wine were top-notch, no one overindulged.

It's different from the police station; detectives usually develop the habit of not drinking excessively.

Of course, occasional indulgence once or twice is not out of the question.

At the hotel entrance, Lu Chuan had already arranged the vehicles.

All were from the Qiangsheng Car Rental Company, all Buick business cars.

All the drivers had already gotten out, opened car doors, and bowed as everyone came out: "Welcome to Qiangsheng Car Rental!"

This impressive display was indeed from the Qiangsheng Group.

And in everyone's car, Lu Chuan had prepared gifts.

Not many: two bottles of Maotai and two cartons of Zhonghua cigarettes.

This time, Zhang Hui was docked pay following him, but compared to this token, Lu Chuan felt his life was even more important.

Originally, just preparing for Zhang Hui was fine.

But he feared it wouldn't be accepted.

If everyone got it, there would be no problem.

At the dinner table, Lu Chuan mentioned there were gifts for everyone, just not what exactly.

The following morning.

There was an urgent task in the Crime Scene Investigation Office.
