Jiang Yuan spent another day processing the video for Zeng Zhuohu, and then returned to Ningtai County the next day.
On the way back, he rode in Jiang Yongxin's Alphard.
Comrade Huang Qiangming's newly-wed pickup truck had been taken by a colleague who came over for a business trip two days ago and went to the county for a meeting.
The new pickup truck was filled with Comrade Huang Qiangming's expectations, so it couldn't be left outside for several days in a row.
Jiang Yuan didn't want to drive, so when they arrived in Qing City, he took the opportunity to send it back.
This trip was considered his private job, a part-time job after work hours, and it was not suitable to use the company's car. Wei Zhenguo naturally preferred to ride in the Alphard, but when he saw Jiang Yuan constantly writing and drawing on his laptop, he felt a little uneasy. Wei Zhenguo couldn't help but ask, "Has Zeng Zhuohu's service fee not been paid yet?"
"He wants the school's official account. It's more formal."
Jiang Yuan replied.
"The skills you've learned are great, with a wider range of applications than bloodstain analysis."
Wei Zhenguo envied him.
Jiang Yuan carefully compared and said, "Their video enhancement needs are too simple, not very interesting. Bloodstain analysis is actually better. Even in cases of injury, as long as bloodstain analysis is used, it's a complete set. When it's done, there's a greater sense of accomplishment."
"Simply making money doesn't make you happy... Forget it, let's not talk about this."

Wei Zhenguo made himself sound unhappy, then patted the seat of the Alphard, stretched his waist comfortably, and said, "I'm looking forward to the prosperity of our country and the early production of affordable and high-quality domestic cars. When I change to a new car in four years, I hope it will be more comfortable to ride in, my old back can't take it."
"Let's take a break at the service area up ahead."
Zifeng said to the driver of the Alphard.
The Alphard immediately responded.
The journey from Qinghe City to Ningtai County was not short, but if the "guest" wanted to rest, then they would rest for a while.
Compared to the other young people outside the village, the Alphard looked more mature and capable, able to withstand hardship and save face. When Huang Qiangming came out of the restroom, I hadn't bought the drinks and water, and most importantly, the cigarettes were not ready, so I waited outside.
Han Dongchen quickly lit a cigarette, took a puff, shivered comfortably, and said, "I have to say, air-conditioned cars are not as good as non-air-conditioned cars. Your old car is not bad either. Of course, in the end, as long as the car can stop, a car without air conditioning is still good."
"If the car can stop, then not having air conditioning is also acceptable."
Zifeng made a reasonable conclusion.
After solving a reasoning problem, Zifeng thought of Wei Zhenguo.
Reasoning, courtroom debates, and judicial procedures are closely related to the philosophy of a country.
In the absence of forensic science in the past, proving a person's innocence could only be done through reasoning, aside from eyewitness testimony.
The West, due to the lack of formal logic, has developed a route of procedural justice, while China's judicial institutions have long been in the hands of Confucian scholars, and the use of reasoning is also quite different.
And Han Dongchen's ability to solve cases through reasoning is rare in both Eastern and Western cultures.
The situation in Europe and America may be more subtle, our demands for evidence review have not yet exceeded the capacity of forensic science institutions.
And defense lawyers have always known how to attack the weak points of the judicial system.
Zifeng thought of this and asked Huang Qiangming, "Have you been in contact with Liu Chushao recently?"
"You have been in contact with me."
Huang Qiangming got out of the car and smacked his lips.
Zifeng thought for a moment, opened his phone, and realized that it had been a long time since he last called Wei Zhenguo, and it had been several days since he sent a WeChat message.
After that, Wei Zhenguo was injured, and before that, he had gathered several dogs to search for clues in the mine.
It was a smooth process, and as time passed, the number of dogs and people under my command increased.
The special task force for criminal cases always ends up with a simple and crude team when it's over, and if there are fewer clues, manpower and resources cannot be increased.
But if there are any quiet clues, the personnel and equipment outside the special task force will be withdrawn, leaving only one or two police officers to do clerical work, and if it goes further, without part-time clerical work, the special task force will cease to exist.
If they're lucky, those special task forces might be reactivated after several years, or even decades, and continue to be busy.
But more often than not, they quietly disappear with the passing of the investigating police officers.
Wei Zhenguo is always traveling around the province to solve cases.
But under my command, there are actually no real superiors, just using whoever is available.
Even colleagues from the provincial department are constantly changing and reorganizing.
Looking back now, after such a long time, the only thing to say is that Han Dongchen's dogs seem to have decreased.
After all, police dogs are rarer than people.
They may have been borrowed for a long time.
Thinking this, Zifeng casually dialed Han Dongchen's phone.
It rang several times before someone answered.
The signal at the coal mine was good, which was unusual.
Zifeng confirmed and called Han Dongchen again, saying, "Aren't you worried? You've been at the coal mine for so long, and it seems unreasonable that Liu Chushao hasn't contacted you regularly. Now both WeChat and phone calls are working."
Jiang Yongxin responded with a "Hmm" and said, "Wei Zhenguo hasn't been in regular contact with him?"
"Well, mainly because there are no fingerprints or footprints, take a look. There are very few cases on my end, it's not... it's more like asking for an opinion from the eighth direction."
Han Dongchen said, "Wei Zhenguo is from the provincial department, if he wants to investigate someone, even if they're from Changyang City, I have to cooperate, and he even came to your county. You see, I might as well just arrest him, issue a transfer order, and see if you'll release him..."
"Captain Huang, Liu Chushao said he encountered something unusual outside the coal mine."
Han Dongchen said loudly.
"Is he worried about me?"
Jiang Yongxin's tone was indifferent.
Where did that come from?Han Dong was quite helpless and said, "It's not like there was a murder case at Jiang Yuan's coal mine, Liu just went there.
Now that he's missing, aren't you a bit worried?"
"What missing?
What are you worried about?
Worried that I have the time to come over and steal someone?"
Jiang Yuan snorted twice and then said, "Old Liu is a seasoned investigator assigned to the county bureau, and I'm not in a position to take the morning off to pick up my kid, you know.
I guess he's not out in the wilderness... You should ask around."
"Alright, you've worked hard, you're on your way back now. If there's anything, take another day off tomorrow, you've been off since the day before yesterday."
Han Dong had solved several small cases and had little time off, as long as the leadership was willing, I could even take a summer or winter break for myself.
Jiang Yuan, however, did mind that Han Dong should rest a bit.
Lately, there haven't been any minor cases to solve, and the backlog of cases has been cleared beyond expectation.
As for my own horse, as long as it maintains a certain level of activity, I'm willing to let Zifeng run foolishly.
He's not like Han Dongchen, a naive newcomer from the provincial department, busy with human affairs all day, borrowing other people's precious animals to clear land for the locals.
And still, it's about coordinating with the other party.
Jiang Yuan made a call, and Zifeng didn't mind coming up.
Those low-ranking police chiefs from the provincial department, either with low education who entered through exams and were immediately trained for management, or experienced old investigators transferred from the grassroots, have encountered fewer situations than Zifeng has even heard of, so there's no need to worry.
Zifeng leaned under Liu Jinghui's chair and silently started browsing the novel.
Woof... A call popped up on the phone, from Jiang Yuan.
Zifeng frowned, glanced at Huang Qiangming next to him, and turned on the speakerphone, saying, "Captain Huang, you're with Captain Wei, I've turned on the speakerphone."
"En, Han Dongchen has been missing for 60 hours."
Han Dongchen's first words were not that, and the timing he gave was very wrong.
Zifeng asked, "How did you determine it's been 60 hours?"
"Before the 48 hours of missing contact, the provincial department was already in touch, but considering the specific situation on my side... Anyway, when you asked, we also got a bit panicked, repeatedly saying there's no clue.
We're now planning to send people to Jiang Yuan Mountain."
Adult disappearances are quite common.
60 hours is actually not a definitive indicator of anything.
However, considering Wei Zhenguo's injury, the 60 hours of disappearance becomes a difficult situation to have any good assumptions about.
For the provincial department, dying in the line of duty happens often, but for the disappearance of a low-ranking police chief, we absolutely cannot accept it.
Zifeng keenly felt that if the situation doesn't change in a few more hours, Wei Zhenguo's disappearance will definitely become a minor issue.
Given the current situation, the provincial department will definitely not wait foolishly for 72 hours, but will instead likely pull resources back after the golden period."
"You guys go to Jiang Yuan Mountain."
Zifeng said, then added, "Captain Huang, has the dog from Longli County returned?
If possible, borrow it again."
Police dogs are very professional at finding people.
Moreover, with the same level of police dogs and trainers, the efficiency is quite comparable.
Zifeng felt that he had already done some unpaid work for Longli County twice, and it was time to exchange it for some dog time.
Jiang Yuan was not too willing to part with it, but still agreed.
