Chapter 745: The Case Was Always There

Only after his reminder did Yu Dazhang realize it.

Yeah, how do you write the report?

To prevent the suspects from dying at the hands of these female special operatives, you went over yourself to kill them?

To outsiders, it does look exactly like that.

But who could understand his plight?

Yu Dazhang looked around the villa entrance, finally fixing his gaze on the camera beside him.

This area is under surveillance… he involuntarily sighed in relief.

Then there's nothing to worry about.

The surveillance footage can prove his actions were taken out of necessity.

As time passed, medical vehicles and personnel from various hospitals arrived one after another, and police officers dispatched from other regions also began to show up.

"All five villas have been searched."

Captain Hua and Captain Xu stood before Yu Dazhang and reported:

"All hidden suspects have been found; none escaped."

Yu Dazhang watched the bustling scene before him, silent.

Just transporting these female victims would take a tremendous amount of time.

There were simply too many of them; he even began to worry whether the hospitals had enough beds.

After a long while, he said:

"Communicate well with the officers who came to assist—make absolutely sure all suspects are taken back."

There are also many suspects here; the detention center has already been notified and is ready to receive them at any time.

If this were in Province S or Province N, such matters wouldn't require his concern at all.

But in Songhai, Captain Xu and Captain Hua are outsiders, unfamiliar with the terrain and people—he could only handle it himself.

More and more assisting officers arrived; later, Yu Dazhang even spotted someone he knew.

"I knew it was you."

Qian Cheng stepped down from the police car and walked straight up to Yu Dazhang with a smile:

"No one else could have stirred up such a commotion."

"You've worked hard," Yu Dazhang replied wearily.

The time had now reached five in the morning.

Almost all assisting officers had been woken from sleep, but for police officers, this was routine.

Along with Qian Cheng came Lu Zhongxin and his two team members.

"Master."

Seeing Lu Zhongxin, Yu Dazhang immediately stepped forward to greet him.

All the officers sent by Hongkou Branch were people he knew—clearly arranged deliberately by Li Jun.

"Only you could do it."

After scanning the scene, Lu Zhongxin sincerely exclaimed:

"A missing persons case turned into a nationwide case by you—now the whole branch is talking; they say the current nationwide crackdown was sparked by you."

His eyes held admiration, his fondness for his apprentice unmistakable.

Who wouldn't be proud of a disciple like that?

There's a rumor circulating in the system that Lu Zhongxin's promotion came entirely from luck—he happened to find a treasure of a disciple.

Lu Zhongxin didn't care about such remarks.

In his view, good luck was also a kind of ability.

If you've got the talent, go find a good disciple yourselves—if you can't, it just proves you're unlucky.

So some things can't be envied; besides jealousy, you must learn to accept them.

"Master, you know the case was always there—no one just noticed it."

Yu Dazhang explained:

"In fact, our work is simply a process of spotting clues and seeking the truth."

These two master and disciple understood everything—talking like this together was merely catching up after not seeing each other for a while.

They both knew well that cases would never end.
