The Forensic Doctor Better Than a Detective-Chapter 591 - 332: Setting a New Record for Criminal Investigation in Jiangcheng

Chapter 591: Chapter 332: Setting a New Record for Criminal Investigation in Jiangcheng

At 3:15 PM, a dust-covered police car slowly drove into the courtyard of the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau.

Li Jian, Jiang An, Wan, and Zhang Yean returned, covered in dust, each wearing a look of exhaustion yet with joy they couldn’t hide.

The moment the vehicle came to a stop in front of the office building, they saw Mr. Ma already standing on the steps waiting.

As the four got out of the car, Li Jian joked with a smile, "Mr. Ma, your presence here really makes us feel honored."

"We were just on a routine business trip, how dare we trouble you to greet us in person?"

He spoke as he patted the dust off his uniform.

Mr. Ma quickly descended the steps, his face brimming with smiles, "Mr. Li and Mr. Jiang, the way you handled this case was truly brilliant!"

He patted Li Jian on the shoulder first, then turned to Jiang An, "You two, as the pillars of our investigation team, have really achieved great feats this time."

"Indeed!" He glanced around at the other officers, "Wan, Zhang Yean, your cooperation was also invaluable."

"The entire investigation team worked with one heart, allowing us to solve this major case so quickly."

"It is only fitting that I come to greet you heroes!"

As he spoke, Mr. Ma’s gaze fell on the notebook in Li Jian’s hand, "Was the evidence collection process smooth?"

"Surprisingly smooth!"

Li Jian eagerly opened the notebook, "The student is the police station chief, the forensic doctor is a ’fan’ of Jiang An,"

"Hahaha!" Mr. Ma burst into hearty laughter.

"The connections you two have are really extensive, everywhere you go, you find a familiar face."

"That’s why it’s said, in our line of work, a good reputation can save a lot of trouble."

Li Jian chimed in, "If you were in charge, the efficiency would surely be higher."

Mr. Ma said, "The job was indeed well done, there’s no need for excessive flattery."

Then, he suddenly said seriously, "When Mr. Wang returned to the provincial department, he immediately reported our investigation results to the Ministry of Public Security."

He lowered his voice, "Latest news, our achievements have made it into the Ministry of Public Security’s internal report, it’s right on my desk."

"This is the highest recognition of Jiangcheng’s investigation team’s ability to solve cases, you all deserve the credit!"

Hearing this news, Li Jian and Jiang An exchanged a glance, and a proud expression appeared on their faces.

The sunlight shone on their slightly tired faces, yet it couldn’t hide the sparkle in their eyes.

"This is the first time Jiangcheng Investigations has been on the cover of the internal report headline!"

Mr. Ma emphasized, his gaze lingering on Jiang An for a moment, showing an approving expression.

"The more impressive news is, Mr. Wang just called saying that Mr. Qi particularly admired our investigative skills."

"Especially after understanding Jiang An’s exceptional contributions in the series of cases, the provincial department decided to make an exception and award Jiang An a First-Class Merit!"

"Mr. Qi plans to personally present the medal!"

"First-Class Merit?"

Li Jian’s eyes widened, "This is no ordinary honor."

"Typically, First-Class Merits are presented by the Director of the Political Department, when has a department head ever presented it personally?"

He looked at Mr. Ma in disbelief.

Mr. Ma smiled mysteriously, "It’s absolutely true!"

"Mr. Wang said this arrangement is unprecedented in the national public security system."

He turned to Jiang An, "Mr. Qi places special importance on this cash transport robbery case."

"Back when the case happened, he was Deputy Commander of the Investigations General Team, and it cost him quite some concern."

"Now seeing the case solved and discovering talent like you, he naturally holds you in high regard."

Hearing this, Jiang An immediately straightened up, "It’s all thanks to the nurturing of Mr. Ma and Mr. Li."

"Without the team’s cooperation, without the guidance of the leadership, I couldn’t have achieved anything alone."

Li Jian suddenly half-joked, "Mr. Ma, at this rate, Jiangcheng might not be able to keep this promising talent, Jiang An!"

"Haha!"

Mr. Ma nodded meaningfully, "Now we just have to see if he’ll seize this opportunity to be recruited by the provincial department."

These words immediately made Zhang Yean and Wan anxious.

Zhang Yean grasped Jiang An’s arm, "No way! Mr. Jiang can’t leave!"

Wan was more anxious, stomping his feet, "Mr. Ma, you have to find a way to keep Mr. Jiang here!"

"With Mr. Jiang leading, our Jiangcheng Investigations will be renowned nationwide in no time!"

Everyone present focused their gaze on Jiang An.

Jiang An looked around at everyone and solemnly said, "Don’t worry, my feelings for Jiangcheng can’t be explained in a few words."

He paused, "Here, there are the leaders who nurtured me, the comrades who fought by my side, and the memories left by every case we’ve solved."

"No matter who tries to recruit me, I won’t leave Jiangcheng Investigations!"

Mr. Ma and Li Jian exchanged a glance, showing comforting smiles on their faces.

Mr. Ma patted Jiang An on the shoulder, "It’s rare for a young man to have such enthusiasm."

"But on the other hand, personal development is also important."

"If in the future there’s a chance to display your talents on a bigger platform, it would also be a form of repayment to Jiangcheng Investigations."

Li Jian laughed, "Haha, we’ll talk about the future when it comes."

"Jiang An, you’ve really made us proud this time."

"Solving a mass murder case, cracking a cash transport robbery, resolving a murder and burying case,"

"This ’one arrow, three condors’ skill is rare even in my many years in the police."

"Indeed," Mr. Ma nodded in agreement, "Such ’one arrow, three condors’ cases are classic cases in the history of criminal investigation."

Joking around, the group walked with a light-hearted step towards the office building.

At 8 AM the next morning, the entrance of the Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau’s investigation team was a bustle of activity.

Mr. Ma was tidying the collar of his dark blue uniform, while Mr. Li kept checking his wristwatch, and the young Wan paced back and forth, occasionally glancing toward the entrance.

At that moment, Jiang An hurried over, slightly out of breath, with an apologetic look on his face.
