Chapter 1298
Suspects who can afford good lawyers require stronger evidence for indictment.
Jiang Yuan's footprint identification, to be explained clearly in a Malaysian court, would require a lot of effort. It's like DNA in the last century; you first have to explain to non-professional judges and jurors what DNA is, how accurate it is, how it is obtained, and how to prove it hasn't been tampered with...
If Jiang Yuan wanted to develop long-term in Malaysia and carry forward footprint identification, this case would be an excellent opportunity; using the suspect detected by footprint identification and then corroborating it with other mature technologies is itself a form of proof.
However, Jiang Yuan didn't have such thoughts.
The promotion of footprint identification is not very easy even domestically, let alone in Malaysia. If he wanted to do this, he would have to spend the next ten years on it. He might even have to train a group of criminal science talents proficient in footprint identification.
Just describing the process and results of trace examination and forensic examination would be much easier.
Although the few people present were still a bit dizzy, Jiang Yuan's way of giving only a brief process and mainly the results still made the prosecutor and the representatives of several councilors feel very favorable.
They were all pure liberal arts students; changing the world was something they could easily do, but understanding the world was clearly something they couldn't do at all. Just receiving the results was very good.
Especially Prosecutor Yahos, watching Jiang Yuan make an identification report on the spot and then orally giving them the final conclusion, he felt very favorable and said, "I have seen the cases you handled before. I didn't expect to see you today; it's truly amazing. Our police work should learn from the Chinese police..."
As a prosecutor, when their mouths are poisoned, they can attack criminals, and when they smear honey on their mouths, it is also sweet.
Jiang Yuan smiled and cooperated with a few sentences, providing two identification reports separately according to the direction of trace inspection and forensic medicine.
Prosecutor Yahos didn't look at them much himself; after taking photos and sending them out, he started chatting with Jiang Yuan about this and that.
After a while, when his phone rang again, Yahos showed a smile: "In that case, I think we can officially apply for a search warrant and an arrest warrant."
Jiang Yuan knew that he had found someone to look at it.
After saying a few more words, Prosecutor Yahos stood up impatiently to say goodbye. The representatives of the other councilors were not in a hurry, but they were all operating their phones there.
"In that case, we should also withdraw." Jiang Yuan pulled Nicha aside.
Nicha was startled: "Too urgent. I'm not talking about solving the case; this case is also a highly watched case. After it is solved, there will inevitably be media reports, etc. You can stay and accept a few interviews; it's always good."
"There will be opportunities in the future." Jiang Yuan patted Nicha on the shoulder and said, "If there are interviews, you can appear on my behalf. I should go back to the country; if there are any situations later, we will contact each other again."
Nicha's eyes were shining as he listened: "Of course. Definitely. Since you have decided, God of Jiang... well, such a case is indeed very easy for you, so I won't persuade you..."
"Well, thank you for actively helping me coordinate the special forces last time, and for the title of Datuk." Jiang Yuan grabbed Nicha's hand and shook it vigorously a few times.
"That is what you deserve." Nicha's eyes were moist, and he kept silently repeating in his heart, 'The God of Jiang remembers me, the God of Jiang remembers me...'
Jiang Yuan's impression of Nicha was indeed good. This is a senior police officer who understands politics, can allocate resources, and at the same time understands police work, and is indeed willing to handle and solve cases.
Whether it was the previous deployment of special forces or the political case involving the councilor, Nicha looked timid, but in the end, he got things done and handled the case. From the perspective of getting things done, it could not be said to be anything but brilliant.
By comparison, Bureau Chief Kumar's political aura was stronger; of course, this was also because he was in a different position. He did not touch the practical aspects of the case, and his communication with Jiang Yuan was not that close.
Jiang Yuan also said goodbye to Kumar through Nicha, and after saying a word to Huang Qiangmin and the others, the group headed straight for the airport.
A business jet was waiting there with a single phone call. A large group of people all knew each other, and sitting together would feel more relaxed.
By the time they were about to take off, Bureau Chief Kumar's call came through.
Jiang Yuan did business with him for a while, and then ended the call.
Cui Xiaohu listened from the side and laughed afterwards: "If Director Chu knew that you were chatting with Kumar like this, he would be envious to death."
He was naturally referring to the police liaison officer Chu Guanliang.
Jiang Yuan was slightly curious: "Director Chu should have opened up the situation, right?"
"That depends on how you define the situation." Cui Xiaohu looked at Jiang Yuan and said, "If you want the kind of situation where you can mobilize Malaysia's special forces with one phone call, he is still far from it."
As soon as this was said, the few people in front all laughed out loud.
Huang Qiangmin coughed twice and said, "Police liaison, after all, isn't just about contacting Malaysia; his connections in the country can also be utilized."
"Hasn't he already started using them?" Cui Xiaohu laughed.
"Yours should be used too." Huang Qiangmin didn't stutter at all. Without waiting for Cui Xiaohu to react, he called the flight attendant to bring wine over and started drinking with Cui Xiaohu on the spot.
The business jet flew directly to Changyang City.
After getting off the plane, Jiang Yuan's cold case task force was given a holiday on the spot. Many criminal police officers borrowed from Changyang City hadn't been home for a while, so they were all given a long holiday.
Others whose homes were not in Changyang City also chose their own transportation methods and whether to take a holiday.
The remaining people gathered a Coaster and headed straight for Ningtai County.
Cui Xiaohu and the others were not in a hurry to return to the capital and followed Jiang Yuan all the way.
Cui Xiaohu and the others had also watched the entire process of Jiang Yuan investigating the case in Malaysia. If the case in the capital made them see Jiang Yuan's extremely strong ability to solve cases, the case in Malaysia made them see Jiang Yuan's ability to cut through the Gordian knot.
Don't say, for police officers from ministries like Cui Xiaohu, cutting through the Gordian knot is sometimes a truly useful ability.
Those cases that take 10 years to polish are feasible in small cities and feasible in the most ordinary, basic, and cruel criminal cases, but they may not be feasible in some complex cases.
Sometimes, taking advantage of the fact that all parties haven't reacted, directly solving the case is the cleanest and most efficient means.
Balancing acts and the like do not belong to the skills of a police officer.
Cui Xiaohu now just wants to stick to Jiang Yuan; he has no impulse for short-term choices, only wanting long-term companionship.
Jiang Yuan then arranged for Cui Xiaohu and the others to stay in the guest rooms downstairs in his own home.
His father, Jiangfuzhen, has a personality that likes to entertain friends. When they were at their poorest, whoever in the village made something, they would send some over. Even in the most difficult times, they didn't let Jiang Yuan go hungry and let him, who had a huge appetite, grow to a very large size.
Today, the Jiang family is dripping with wealth. Jiangfuzhen has good meat when friends come, and he specifically leaves rooms for people to live in; even when the rent was at its best, he didn't rent them all out.
Even for the houses that were rented out, when the tenants were not doing well, Jiangfuzhen let them live there. Most tenants would struggle for three to five months or half a year; then, some would make up the rent, some would say goodbye, and some would be called by Jiangfuzhen to help in the kitchen or help arrange some work.
Ningtai is a county town. The external economy mainly relies on various factories, followed by the tourism industry brought by scenic spots. The demand for labor is not small, but the wages are generally low, suitable for young people who can never find work and whose dreams have been shattered.
Jiang Yuan holed up at home and ate fiercely for several days before he finally soothed his stomach.
By the third day, Jiang Yuan finally became leisurely. He asked the farm workers to lead a cow into the residential area to be slaughtered, and then he personally took the knife to eat hot beef.
Beef slices boiled in mineral water—besides the variety of seasonings being a bit more, there were no other fancy tricks.
The mineral water was the most ordinary mineral water, and the beef was distinguished according to the parts of Chinese Chaoshan beef. The 'diaolong' (ribeye) was sliced by the forensic pathologist taking the tenderloin, and the 'sanhuazhi' (front leg tendon) was sliced by the forensic pathologist taking the front leg tendon...
Except for the fact that the cow was just slaughtered and the one slicing was a forensic pathologist, everything else was similar to ordinary Chaoshan shabu-shabu beef.
It was simply delicious.
One cow for a group of people to eat, and they couldn't finish it.
When everyone was rubbing their bellies, feeling that if they ate any more they would vomit, Jiang Yuan took out his pad and began to read about the recent drowning cases in the Taihe River Basin.
The plankton detection (LV6) related to drowning, obtained through the title of "Datuk," was also still steaming hot.
