Chapter 893: Eliminating the Third Son

~11 min read 2,051 words

"Team Leader Wang, two more emails received. I've printed them out." The intern police officer guarding the computer handed the two documents to Wang Chuanxing.

"Report letters? Good stuff." Wang Chuanxing laughed, took the documents to look at them, pulled out the emails to take a glance, quickly forwarded the emails to the working group, and then took the printed documents to see Jiang Yuan.

The content of the two report letters was mainly text-based. In terms of evidentiary value, it was definitely insufficient, but they both pointed the suspects to a leader named "Han Sanlang" and his gang.

The same name had also appeared in previous report letters, and personnel had already been sent to investigate.

Wang Chuanxing then wrote a memo to Jiang Yuan and called the police officers who had gone to investigate.

The call connected, and he heard the sound of wind whistling in the headset, as well as the shouting of many people.

"Hello? How is the situation on your end?" Wang Chuanxing was a bit worried. If this was a thief's den, his side had only sent four people, and they were likely to suffer losses.

"Ran into a thief's den." The police officer on the other end, Weng Fang, said "Ah," and then a "Bang" of a gunshot was heard.

"Gunfire? Weng Fang, do you need support? Where are you located?" Wang Chuanxing sat up with a start.

Weng Fang said "Mm," but his voice was unhurried. "It's fine, fired a warning shot into the sky. The scene is a bit chaotic; can't let them run again. We're fine. The local police sent a brigade to help, and their attitude is very good. The one who fired the shot was also one of theirs."

Only then did Wang Chuanxing breathe a sigh of relief. Actually, in the domestic environment, if the police are truly willing to open fire, one against a hundred is a bit exaggerated, but one against ten is definitely no problem. The small pistols not killing people is because the People's Police aim at non-lethal locations. If it were like the American police, firing three shots in a triangle on the chest first, checking the situation, and then firing three shots at the head, the small pistols could also send people to the funeral home.

At the same time, he heard Weng Fang continue: "This Han Sanlang's gang is not small in scale, and the crimes they've committed are likely not small either. If the local criminal police brigade captain hadn't fired decisively just now, they would have slipped away. They really dare to resist."

"Ensure safety first." Wang Chuanxing said according to Huang Qiangmin's traditional educational model, then asked: "Have you caught anyone now? Or do you need to storm the position to catch fugitives?"

"Staring at the main culprit. If we're not careful, a few small fry might run. We don't have many more people than them." Weng Fang paused and said, "Won't talk anymore, we should go up too."

"Okay, okay." Wang Chuanxing put down his phone, thought for a moment, explained a few words to Tang Jia and the others who were already listening on the side, and then hurried to the conference room next door to report to Jiang Yuan.

The next day.

Early morning.

Li Jiaoshou was sleeping soundly while hugging his dog when he was woken up by the familiar alarm clock.

"Woof!" Li Jiaoshou answered the phone, and the dog barked first.

This time, the caller was Li Jiaoshou's graduate student, an outer-sect disciple who wasn't very familiar with the elders. Hearing the voice on the other side, a large number of illegal website images instantly appeared in his mind. Suppressing his shock and desire to share, he said, "Professor, received a notice from Jiang Yuan saying that a project discussion meeting will be held in advance. The time is in 1 hour."

Li Jiaoshou was stunned. "He might as well be our boss."

"Should I reply like that?" The student on the other side wasn't sure how people in society communicated.

Li Jiaoshou felt a lump of phlegm stuck in his throat. He slapped the dog's butt with a "slap." "Of course you can't reply like that. Forget it, I'm up. Tell them I'm rushing over from outside and might be a little late."

"Yes."

"Also, why does Jiang Yuan want to hold a project discussion? What is there to discuss? Isn't his forensic work finished?" Li Jiaoshou said while slowly getting dressed.

The student immediately said, "He said it's... bringing the suspected stolen items from the Yong Wang tomb to the university to help improve..."

"Why didn't you say this just now?" Li Jiaoshou was so angry he turned on the speakerphone, threw the phone aside, and said while getting dressed quickly, "Tell them I'm rushing over as fast as I can and will try to be on time."

"Ah... you don't have to rush too much, pay attention to safety on the road." The student thought he was caring for the professor.

Li Jiaoshou was so angry he slapped the dog's butt again. "Are you trying to send me in?"

Archaeology Department, Shannan University.

Several long tables were pushed together, each placed with a few cultural relics, including porcelain, pottery, silver and copper ware, as well as special items like incense burners and stone pillars.

The four professors, Tao, Sun, Li, and Zhang, each stood in front of a table, either examining them carefully or stepping back two steps to look at them in detail.

Archaeology professors generally don't know how to appraise cultural relics. At the very least, the cultural relic appraisal they know is limited to a very small range such as dating and classification. If it's not an object dug out of a tomb by their own hands, they wouldn't dare to buy it, which is about the same as archaeology professors' understanding of anthropology.

However, assuming these cultural relics came from the Yong Wang tomb, the four quickly classified them.

Tao Yajie's excitement couldn't be suppressed. "The shape looks correct. With this, our final shortcomings have been filled."

"I agree. It's not strange at all that these items appeared in the Yong Wang tomb." Li Jiaoshou arrived before the meeting time. Looking at these clearly cleaned cultural relics, he whispered, "Jiang... Teacher Jiang, may I ask about the source of these cultural relics? No other meaning, just want to know the situation of their circulation. You know, we emphasize that the inheritance is orderly..."

His explanation was a bit awkward, but the other three professors were also curious, so they didn't say anything.

Jiang Yuan felt it was necessary to explain, so he said, "The batch you see now was mainly stolen by a tomb-robbing gang named Han Sanlang. After they succeeded, they returned to the hotel to divide the loot. Among them, Han Sanlang got 4 pieces of antiques from No. 1 to No. 4, and the others each got two to four pieces. A total of 42 cultural relics were stolen."

There were 28 cultural relics on the table. After calculating this, a smart student replied, "14 cultural relics were sold?"

"All sold. Just through different channels of selling stolen goods." Jiang Yuan paused. "Han Sanlang's tomb-robbing gang has all been arrested, and a portion of the downstream dealers have been caught. Through these few cultural relic dealers, we have caught several suspects who bought the stolen goods. These were confiscated on the spot. There is another portion that the dealers sold to other dealers, and some may have changed hands four or five times. It will take some time to recover these."

"So fast?" Tao Yajie said in surprise, then smiled. "According to my understanding, general cultural relic-related cases are quite time-consuming to trace, and some may take months or even years..."

"Mm, general cases are like that." Jiang Yuan didn't evaluate how other units worked. Everyone was unequal in terms of resources first. Although there are special cultural relic inspection brigades in the country, they are in the administrative system, not the criminal investigation system. Everyone is different in terms of strength. And within the criminal investigation system, the investment in cultural relic crimes is also relatively small.

Jiang Yuan's cold case team has evolved to today, and it has long been Jiang Yuan's own mode of picking cases. If he wants to do Han Sanlang's case, it means dozens of elite soldiers and generals are participating.

In fact, it's far more than that. Because Han Sanlang's case was reported, Jiang Yuan's cold case team only sent 4 people, and with the cooperation of the local police, they wiped out Han Sanlang's gang. The other contacts are actually in a similar state. As long as someone explains the location and personnel, Jiang Yuan makes a phone call, and the local criminal police will move immediately to help Jiang Yuan catch the person and the stolen goods.

It sounds long-winded, but in reality, this work was completed in the past two days.

If one doesn't say that all criminal police in the world are one family, under normal circumstances, everyone will provide convenience for criminal police who come from other places to handle cases. Giving two people and accompanying them for a day or two is a basic operation, which is just a few places focusing on charging fees. Correspondingly, what everyone expects is that when they go to other provinces and cities in the future, they can also get similar treatment, hoping that cases that have been stayed up late for many days can be gained.

But when it comes to Jiang Yuan, this is not called a normal situation.

Jiang Yuan has now handled cases for criminal police teams in nearly 10 provinces, and the number of people he has answered on WeChat and phone calls is countless. Saying it's all over the country is not an exaggeration; it's stating a fact. Even in the criminal police field, saying "everyone in the world knows you" is not an exaggeration.

In this state, when Jiang Yuan calls for people, the local criminal police will definitely do their best to handle it.

It is said that they are returning Jiang Yuan's favor, and they are also handling cases on their own turf. There is no reason for it not to be smooth. The only resistance is the resistance of the criminals themselves, but this part is the least important for the police.

The professors were not little babies who didn't eat the fireworks of the world. They looked at each other and began to praise on the spot:

"Worthy of being Teacher Jiang!"

"It should be said, it still has to be Teacher Jiang!"

"In this case, our progress will be very fast..."

Jiang Yuan waved his hand and added, "The interrogation hasn't been completed yet. When the interrogation is completed, there should be a rough placement of various cultural relics when they went down the tomb passage..."

"This is too good!" Tao Yajie and Professor Sun looked at each other and smiled. "I was just talking to Old Sun about this point. It's really great. The location of the funerary objects in the tomb, the place where they are placed, sometimes explains the status of the tomb owner better than their value, explaining the living conditions of ancient humans at that time."

Jiang Yuan had also made up for relevant knowledge. After they finished speaking, he took out his PDA and smiled. "Speaking of which, I will talk about the research conclusions of the past few days."

"Please speak." The four professors immediately sat obediently on both sides of the conference table.

When the other students saw this, they didn't dare to show their heads. They all sat obediently behind their respective professors, lined up in the order of inner-sect and outer-sect disciples.

Instead, two girls who were clearly undergraduates sat opposite Jiang Yuan hand in hand, took out their phones as if taking a selfie, quietly turned the lens, and took several photos of Wu Wu Fa Yi Jiang. They could show off when they went back. They didn't expect that the big boss not only touched corpses well, but also looked good and was very photogenic. ===== CHAPTER 894 =====
