National Forensic Doctor-Chapter 1153 - 1084: I Know

Beep... Woo... Beep... Woo...

Every now and then, a police officer would head out with a sound or return with a sound.

How loud or how varied the sounds outside were, Jiang Yuan and the others couldn’t hear them. Regardless, whenever the sounds came or went, they were always quite loud.

Each returning convoy brought back at least one suspect.

In cases of drug-facilitated assault or outright rape, the victim’s testimony is paramount, followed by a chain of evidence.

The already arrested Wang Xiang and the props master Wang Yuxian served as third-party witnesses. Just based on testimonies alone, these two were already sufficient to ensure credibility.

What remained was finding concrete evidence—such as the exact location and timing of the assault, how both parties arrived there, whether it was arranged or one was brought unconsciously. When did the incident occur, and when did it end?

By the time of submission for examination, most intermediary details would also need to be filled in. If one party was unconscious, the other party’s account typically becomes essential.

Though these aspects may sound simple, handling them is painstaking.

To the police, anything entering the case files must be treated with utmost caution.

As for Dai Mingsheng, nothing gave him more peace of mind than video surveillance evidence.

Especially in the later hours of the night, as everyone grew more proficient, their efficiency soared. Jiang Yuan found evidence significantly faster, and the frequency of deployment teams increased notably. Despite the strong fatigue, Dai Mingsheng couldn’t help but feel invigorated.

What he didn’t know was that by the late hours, Jiang Yuan had activated his temporary +1 skill.

Those Level 6 abilities, once boosted to "temporary +1," really felt as though divine assistance was at play—akin to duplicating a bank balance in the tech world.

By morning, even the long-spearmen teams were stretched thin.

Phones began ringing incessantly from all directions.

Whenever Dai Mingsheng picked up a call, he offered a vague, muffled reply, only to burst into hearty laughter upon hanging up.

"Feeling stressed?" Huang Qiangmin, perhaps the one who knew Dai Mingsheng best on-site, asked honestly.

Dai Mingsheng chuckled and shook his head. "The suspects are in our hands now, what stress could there be? Any pressure, I’ll just push it onto the interrogation room."

"True enough. It’s just a few bosses from small companies anyway," Huang Qiangmin laughed heartily.

But this time, Dai Mingsheng didn’t laugh. He sighed and said, "Several filming crews had to halt production."

"Serves them right," Huang Qiangmin retorted.

"But the production teams suffer. Especially those nearing completion—it’s not just the actors pouring in their efforts; the crew members essentially meet misfortune too. Some companies will close down, and people will lose money."

"Fair point," Huang Qiangmin chuckled.

Dai Mingsheng kept a straight face for a few seconds before bursting into a laugh himself.

"Feels good, doesn’t it?" Huang Qiangmin roared with laughter again.

"Good! Feels fantastic!" Dai Mingsheng’s phone rang again, but he glanced at it and didn’t pick up.

Huang Qiangmin said with amusement, "That’s what happens when Jiang Yuan handles a case. It’s normal to feel excitement from head to toe. When I was the captain of the Criminal Police Unit, any case handed to Jiang Yuan turned out the same."

"Brother, you’re truly fortunate," Dai Mingsheng remarked sincerely.

Huang Qiangmin smiled, "Just ate some rough grain along the way. But now that we’re acquainted, if anything comes up in Lanyue City in the future, just reach out to Jiang Yuan."

"I genuinely want to," Dai Mingsheng replied earnestly, escorting Huang Qiangmin, Jiang Yuan, and the others downstairs with a friendly smile.

Wen Ming took the keys to the GL8 from Huang Qiangmin and unlocked it.

The brand-new, luxuriously renovated GL8 opened its electric door slowly, welcoming Jiang Yuan and Huang Qiangmin aboard.

Wen Ming jogged a few steps and hopped into the driver’s seat.

Just as Jiang Yuan predicted, within one night, this criminal network case was largely solved, leaving just some loose ends to be cleaned up later.

However, the real mastermind behind Li Aiyuan’s case had yet to be identified. But given this particular case, neither Dai Mingsheng nor Jiang Yuan seemed overly pressed.

Whether through interrogation or other means, spending a bit more time would inevitably lead to uncovering the culprit’s identity. After all, haste makes waste.

The props master Wang Yuxian, for example, was a clear informant, but also evidently a death row convict. Extracting valuable information from him would undoubtedly require much effort and time.

Meanwhile, Jiang Yuan and the others, having pulled an all-nighter, were utterly exhausted.

Their spirits, however, remained strong—especially Huang Qiangmin, whose bulging briefcase carried part of the legacy he’d built for Jiang Yuan.

"Let’s grab some breakfast first," Wen Ming suggested as he parked the car in front of "Yilan Residence."

Yilan Residence was a renowned breakfast spot in Lanyue City. For the past few days, Jiang Yuan and his team had either dined here or ordered takeout from the establishment.

The second floor of Yilan Residence had private rooms; the group headed upstairs familiarly, their eyes landing on a beautiful woman waiting there.

"Captain Jiang." Standing upstairs was Li Airu, the younger sister of the victimized celebrity Li Aiyuan.

Compared to their previous encounter, Li Airu’s demeanor had significantly improved.

She flashed a radiant smile that, to the rough men present, seemed as dazzling as a blooming flower.

Clearly, Li Airu had applied full makeup—for her to have managed this, she must have started preparing as early as 4 a.m.

"The officer in charge of communicating case updates must have reached out to you, correct?" Jiang Yuan, well-versed in dealing with victims’ families, could guess Li Airu’s reason for appearing here.

His comment struck an emotional chord, as Li Airu immediately teared up.

Her voice turned hoarse as she softly asked, "Yes, they informed me. That’s why I came here—to ask whether the mastermind behind my sister’s case will really be arrested." frёeωebɳovel.com

"Certainly. As soon as their identity is confirmed, we’ll make the arrest," Jiang Yuan replied as he climbed the stairs and stood opposite Li Airu.

At that moment, due to her makeup, Li Airu struck a striking resemblance to a younger version of her sister Li Aiyuan. She had an excellent appearance and figure—delicate and alluring.

Crucially, she had every reason to gaze at you with tearful eyes.

The rough men on-site suddenly couldn’t handle it, blurting out in unison:

"This is a major case. We’re giving it our all."

"Don’t cry, okay? The case is going quite smoothly."

"When there’s news, we’ll definitely inform you. Just hold on for now."

Li Airu fanned her eyes with both hands, trying to dry her tears as she said, "I’m just worried the culprit is too powerful and you might stop pursuing them."

"That won’t happen. We’ll definitely see it through," Huang Qiangmin reassured her.

Li Airu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief before gritting her teeth and declaring, "I know who the mastermind is!"
