Chapter 81: Returning Stolen Goods

First team, second team, third and fourth teams.

Fifth team, sixth team, seventh and eighth teams.

Tossed into the thieves, they are nowhere to be seen.

Team after team of criminal police were sent out, quickly filling the case-handling center, and then sending people from the case-handling center to the detention center, once to the point where the latter didn't want any more.

Of course, whether there was something or nothing, the latter never wanted people.

Because of insufficient manpower, Jiang Yuan also went for two physical examinations and then sent them to the detention center—only young and middle-aged social mainstays who were physically healthy and free of illness could be sent to the detention center. Those who were not healthy enough or old enough, if they wanted to enter the detention center, they needed the right time, place, and people.

After such an operation, a month had passed.

Finally waiting for the last criminal suspect to be submitted to the procuratorate for public prosecution, the spider plant in the office had grown by a full meter.

Monday.

Jiang Yuan arrived at the office half an hour early, trimmed a branch of the spider plant, and casually inserted it into a water bottle.

An ancient saying goes: After sitting in an office for a long time, whether they are human or not, they all learn to plant flowers and grass to cultivate new species. Only those who stare at their superiors all day, scold their subordinates, and mess around with male-female, male-male, female-female, transgender, and male(female) relationships, will stare at what others are doing every day, while they themselves can't even raise a pot of flowers.

Wang Zhong was guarding the office, and seeing Jiang Yuan arrive, he ran over quickly, just in time to see Jiang Yuan trimming the branch of the spider plant.

"Oh my, you're even arranging flowers!" Wang Zhong's speech seemed to be getting better and better, and he hurriedly came up to help, saying, "You should have told me earlier, I would have helped you tidy up these flowers. I often love to mess with flowers and grass at home..."

While speaking, Wang Zhong took the flower shears from Jiang Yuan's hand, and then snip-snip, trimmed off all the branches and leaves falling on both sides of the spider plant.

Outside the window, the singing of several elementary school students happened to drift in: Listen to me thank you, it is you who warmed the four seasons.

Wang Zhong listened to the singing and felt it was a perfect match, turned around and smiled, "Speaking of the topic of thank you, I heard that Captain Huang is arranging a ceremony for returning stolen goods."

"Seems like it." Jiang Yuan took the flower shears without knowing why, and trimmed the spider plant to be rounder.

Wang Zhong smiled and said, "That... according to the order, the return of stolen goods for that cigarette and liquor store should be in the first batch."

Jiang Yuan had been in the Criminal Police Brigade for so long, and his vigilance had also improved a lot. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did someone entrust you to do something?"

"No... it's not, I didn't take any money." Wang Zhong explained messily.

Jiang Yuan frowned and looked at Wang Zhong, the image of the female shop owner appearing in his mind, and couldn't help but say, "If you didn't take money, then your problem is big."

"No... how could it be, it's not what you think." Wang Zhong's explanation was so forced. After pulling for two sentences, he said dejectedly, "It's the daughter of that female shop owner who came specifically to find me. That girl is still studying, and she said how hard it is for her mother, and how she cries at home... I definitely expressed sympathy..."

"Still studying?" Jiang Yuan's expression became a bit more solemn. Is this the rhythm of making a big mistake?

"University student, an adult. There is no relationship between us, it's purely... purely..."

"A relationship of entrustment?" Jiang Yuan helped Wang Zhong say it.

"Don't be like this, I'll bring her to show you later. I really just feel that their family is having a hard time." Wang Zhong tried hard to explain, his face turning red.

Jiang Yuan smiled: "Then what do you want me to do?"

Wang Zhong hurriedly said: "Can you talk to Captain Huang and just put the return of stolen goods for the cigarette and liquor store in the first batch? This is actually in line with the requirements for returning stolen goods set by the Political Department. It's just to ensure it, so as not to be squeezed out of position. In our team, Captain Huang only recognizes you..."

"Fine." Jiang Yuan agreed without fuss, thought about it and said: "Then this afternoon, just urge them to get the return of stolen goods done as soon as possible."

The main content of his task "Following the Vine to Find the Melon" was to return the confiscated stolen goods to their original owners.

However, even in the county town, involving so many cases and property, it was not easy to handle. At the very least, the task of signing must be completed first.

If it weren't for worrying that the reporters would lose interest, this task could have been dragged on for a long time.

Afternoon.

Jiang Yuan first followed Wang Zhong and waited for Sheng Ying, the daughter of the female shop owner of the cigarette and liquor store, in the case-handling hall.

Sheng Ying was very tall, probably over 1.75 meters, wearing flat shoes, and still looked exceptionally tall and slender in the hall.

Especially white, especially white skin, large sections exposed outside, no wonder Wang Zhong was soul-stirring. After all, it's trace inspection, so one should pay extra attention to skin without traces.

"Officer Jiang." Sheng Ying didn't need Wang Zhong to introduce her, and hurriedly came over to say hello.

Jiang Yuan nodded, looked at Wang Zhong again, and said: "Actually, you don't need to come over. I'll go talk to Captain Huang. You and Wang Zhong stay here."

Sheng Ying was a student after all, standing there at a loss, thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Then I'll treat you to dinner later..."

"No need." Jiang Yuan waved his hand and went to press the elevator.

Seeing this, Wang Zhong turned to Sheng Ying and said: "Officer Jiang is the kind of awesome, cheating-style person. With him out, it's definitely no problem. To tell you the truth, Captain Huang also does things quite well, but he's a bit pissy, often dragging things out. It's just a common problem of being a leader, it's not targeting anyone..."

"Captain Huang." Jiang Yuan greeted Captain Huang Qiangmin, the captain of the Criminal Police Brigade, who had just walked out of the elevator.

Wang Zhong heard it, his ear roots trembled with fright, turned his head slightly, and saw Captain Huang's mouth corners curled up by 44.4 degrees.

"What's the matter?" Huang Qiangmin asked Jiang Yuan.

"The daughter of the victim of the cigarette shop robbery case heard that stolen goods can be returned and wants to be listed in the first batch." Jiang Yuan simply repeated the situation.

Huang Qiangmin gave an "oh," nodded and said: "Fine, since you've brought it up, try to arrange it."

"Thank you, thank you..." Sheng Ying was overjoyed and thanked Jiang Yuan and Wang Zhong separately.

"There's one more thing." Huang Qiangmin ignored her, turned around and called Jiang Yuan over, saying: "Since I ran into you, I'll tell you first."

"Okay."

"Our province plans to organize a fingerprint battle. The specific time is within this month. You prepare yourself, and at that time, represent our Ningtai County and Qinghe City to participate in the battle."

"Me?" Jiang Yuan pointed at himself unexpectedly.

"Who else but you?" Huang Qiangmin smiled at 99.9 degrees, like a little crocodile that had bitten a wildebeest, and said to Jiang Yuan: "In these few days, ponder over fingerprints well and keep your state. If you can become famous in one battle, you will easily become a police supervisor in the future." ===== CHAPTER 82 =====
