Chapter 117: It's You Again?

It wasn't just him; even the members of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Bureau were at a loss.

On the way here, they hadn't even figured out what this case was about.

Now, a strange phenomenon had formed inside the hospital.

The Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Bureau was waiting for orders from Li Jun.

And Li Jun was waiting for Yu Dazhang to give the order.

Why was it like this?

No leads, that's why.

Usually, such major cases have a special task force.

But the current situation was: not only was there no special task force, there wasn't even a case file.

You can't rely on guessing to understand the situation.

So they could only watch each other.

"Investigate the forensic doctor?" Li Jun looked at Yu Dazhang in disbelief:

"Are you sure?"

Investigating colleagues within the system is sensitive; if something went wrong, he couldn't bear the responsibility.

Moreover, this wasn't work the Criminal Investigation Team should be doing.

Afterwards, Yu Dazhang explained his deduction.

"There really is a problem." Li Jun made a decision quickly:

"I'll go arrange it right now."

The case files Yu Dazhang had pulled up earlier were in the detachment's filing cabinet; he had written down the file number for each case in his small notebook.

One phone call was all it took to have the relevant case files retrieved.

It wouldn't take long for those case files to become crucial evidence.

The investigating officers involved would also be investigated one by one.

It was still the same saying: no one would be let off!

A short while later, Li Jun returned to Yu Dazhang's side.

"Get ready; Director Liu wants to see you in a moment."

They couldn't hold it back anymore... Yu Dazhang understood his meaning.

Captain Li must have been considering his protection, so during the previous reporting process, he hadn't specified exactly who was leading the case.

First, because Yu Dazhang's investigation of the hospital was a personal act, or rather, unauthorized action.

If they really pursued it, he would definitely face disciplinary action.

Merit is merit, fault is fault; concepts cannot be confused.

Second, Li Jun was unsure if this case could be solved.

The pressure and resistance were too great.

If Yu Dazhang were reported as the lead, his small shoulders simply couldn't bear the pressure from all sides.

Even he, the detachment captain, was being suffocated by various phone calls; let alone an ordinary police officer.

But now, reporting it was unavoidable.

The top leader of the Municipal Bureau had personally arrived.

If he were asked to detail the investigation process, he couldn't explain it.

Besides, Yu Dazhang had shown him all the evidence he possessed.

In Li Jun's view, this case was already secure, and it was time for the little guy to step forward.

Five minutes later, Director Liu arrived on the fourth floor, followed by the captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Bureau.

That's right, he had come to see Yu Dazhang.

No one in the entire Songhai police force had ever enjoyed such treatment.

The big shot from the Municipal Bureau climbing the stairs to meet an ordinary police officer; no one would believe it if it were said aloud.

When others give you face, you must accept it... Yu Dazhang naturally couldn't let the big shot's face drop to the ground.

He ran all the way to Director Liu's front and performed a standard standing salute:

"Greetings, Director Liu!"

"It's you again?" Director Liu was stunned.

He had just heard Li Jun say that this case was being investigated by an ordinary police officer under his command.

But he never imagined that this person would actually be the newcomer he had seen just once before.

Not long ago, when he saw him in the office, it was because of a trafficking case.

How many days had it been? He hadn't even finished his psychological counseling period, yet he solved another major case?

Yu Dazhang smiled awkwardly and didn't reply.

He really didn't know how to explain. If he said it was a coincidence, Director Liu wouldn't believe it.

So many people had come to this hospital to investigate the abandonment case; why did you specifically make such a big deal of it?

It didn't make sense.

Fortunately, Director Liu didn't probe deeper; seeing Yu Dazhang's troubled expression, he changed the subject:

"Tell me the situation; pick out the key points."

"Okay." After Yu Dazhang agreed, he quickly gave a brief account of the entire story from beginning to end.

Starting with the abandonment case, discovering suspicions through the misdiagnosis.

Retrieving case files, checking connections, visiting the parties involved in other cases, and finally setting the trap...

Yu Dazhang only needed ten minutes to explain the entire process.

Although it didn't take long, it left Director Liu listening in a daze.

It really had all been investigated single-handedly by him!

Please... bookmark... 6... 9... book........!

Otherwise he wouldn't have been able to recount the investigative process so smoothly.

It even included his personal deductions; every detail had been taken into consideration.

Seeing the somewhat dazed look in Director Liu's eyes as he gazed at him, Yu Dazhang immediately guessed his thoughts.

"I think the most important thing right now is to investigate the background of this hospital, especially those investors."

Including Director Liu, everyone had only just come into contact with this case; their thinking hadn't been opened up yet.

Right now only Yu Dazhang understood the situation most clearly, so of course he had to offer his plans and suggestions.

Wait until the leader asks you on his own initiative, and then you won't be able to handle things properly.

Doesn't the leader need to save face?

After hearing this, Director Liu nodded, then issued instructions to the detachment captain beside him.

After several orders went out, soon the entire detachment was bustling with activity.

"The victims were all children?" Director Liu stared at Yu Dazhang and asked.

"Based on the situation currently in hand, yes." Yu Dazhang replied, then immediately offered the next direction of investigation:

"Just in the last two years alone, the abandonment cases this hospital was involved in number as many as thirty."

"The case files from the last five years are all with me. As long as we go through them one by one, I believe we'll get specific information very soon."

Investigate what?

Of course, investigate the final outcome of the children in each case.

Yu Dazhang didn't say it outright, but he believed Director Liu would understand.

This was only a portion; behind the scenes, who knows how many more times it had been done.

The final number would have to be confirmed by combining interrogation results and evidence.

But as things stood now, this number would not be small.

In Yu Dazhang's view, the Municipal Bureau also had to keep reporting this case upward.

The web of connections involved was too vast.

Just investigating one forensic examiner and calling it done?

Put it this way—even the crematorium is a suspect!

Before cremation, the body has to be examined too.

So many children were cremated at your place, and you didn't catch a single one.

Is that possible?

You have to understand, the crematorium is state-run; its weight is no less than that of a Class III Grade A hospital.

When one cockroach is discovered, it means there are more cockroaches in the dark.

For a major case like this to go undiscovered for five years, the connections in every direction naturally wouldn't be few.

"Collect the case files related to this hospital, then hand them over to the Municipal Bureau's Criminal Investigation Team." Director Liu ordered.

"Understood." Yu Dazhang nodded in agreement.

With so many cases, they certainly couldn't let him investigate alone.

This wasn't a matter of trust or not; it was that the workload was too great—by the time he finished investigating, the case would probably already be closed.

"After this, you must compile the case file for this case as soon as possible, in as much detail as possible." Director Liu instructed again.

This was the main task.

And right now, only Yu Dazhang could complete this task.

Afterwards, Yu Dazhang went over the suspected targets once more.

For each target he mentioned, he would give detailed reasons for suspicion.

When he got to the crematorium, he clearly saw the muscles on Director Liu's face twitch.
