Once, I wanted to be a good person

Everything was strictly by the book, and in this kind of scrutiny, it would be very fair and strict.

This was both good and bad.

The good was that Xun Yi and the others would not create stumbling blocks, the bad was that Fang Ze had to be absolutely meticulous, to not give anyone a handle to criticize him.

As he pondered this, Yun Su added, "Additionally, here are the state's review procedure clauses, the confidentiality regulations for the reviewers, and some points to note during the review."

Receiving the document again, Fang Ze glanced through it quickly and nodded.

Seeing that Fang Ze had understood everything, Yun Su said, "Then, if there are no issues, let's start this review."

At this, he opened the file and continued, "Commissioner Fang Ze, currently the bureau is mainly concerned about your work in the Special Case Team, as well as your use of the Special Operation Permit yesterday."

"Therefore, we need a detailed explanation of the current progress of the Special Case Team and the necessity of using the Special Operation Permit yesterday to arrest a Security Bureau department chief."

"First, please talk about the progress of solving cases within the Special Case Team."

Hearing Yun Su's straightforward question, Bai Zhi couldn't help but look worriedly at Fang Ze.

Xun Yi also looked at Fang Ze.

Fang Ze ignored their gazes and turned to Yun Su, then countered, "The Special Case Team is handling two cases, one is the murder of the Hua Jian Department Chief, and the other is the Shadow Organization case. Which one would you like to hear first?"

Yun Su looked up at him and said, "Start with the Hua Jian Department Chief's murder case."

Fang Ze nodded and replied, "Alright."

"The murder case of the Hua Jian Department Chief has been solved by me."

Hearing this, the three people present were all momentarily stunned.

Yun Su frowned, Bai Zhi was somewhat surprised, and Xun Yi was somewhat incredulous.

Clearly, the three had considered many possible reactions and answers from Fang Ze, but they had not expected this one.

Xun Yi coughed slightly and then said, "Commissioner Fang Ze, we are the Security Bureau, and everything must be substantiated by evidence. You can't just say anything offhand."

Hearing Xun Yi's words, Bai Zhi also came back to her senses and looked worriedly at Fang Ze.

Fang Ze smiled at Xun Yi and then bluntly said, "Director Xun Yi, you are just an observer here, isn't it inappropriate for you to overstep?"

Hearing Fang Ze's challenge, Xun Yi's face iced over and she stopped speaking.

At this moment, Yun Su coughed and then said, "Commissioner Fang Ze, please describe the entire process of solving the case."

Hearing Yun Su's words, Fang Ze nodded. Experience tales at My Virtual Library Empire

Then he spoke in a methodical manner, "Here's what happened."

"After the Hua Jian Department Chief was kidnapped, I immediately arranged for some officers to question and visit some commissioners of the Security Bureau and the nearby residents."

"Then I confirmed some details of the case."

"For example, the Hua Jian Department Chief during his office hours, without any official business or reason, suddenly left the office."

"For example, after leaving, the Hua Jian Department Chief deliberately took a circuitous route to avoid being followed."

"For example, those who attacked the Hua Jian Department Chief appeared out of thin air."

"Thus, I boldly speculated that his disappearance was not a simple kidnapping but a case with insider information, likely connected to the Shadow Organization."

"Following this lead, I hypothesized that the kidnappers were either assassins sent by the Shadow Organization to eliminate him, or other forces interested in the Shadow Organization."

"Subsequently, I began to investigate the case."

"First, I confirmed that the organization attacking the Hua Jian Department Chief, whether for kidnapping or assassination, would first need to find a suitable place for hiding and taking action."@@novelbin@@

"Near Emerald City, there are actually only two such places: one is Greenwater Forest outside the city, and the other is the lawless Red Light District."

"Because, only in these two places could they handle or dispose of the Hua Jian Department Chief without easily being discovered."

"After questioning and investigating the various roads entering and leaving the city, I basically confirmed that the kidnapper did not transport the Hua Jian Department Chief out of the city."

"Therefore, I prioritized the Red Light District for investigation."

At this point, Fang Ze paused and then said, "I won't go into the specific details of the investigation. I believe you would not be interested in hearing them."

After finishing, he glanced at Xun Yi and then deliberately said, "If Director Xun Yi is really interested, she could ask Director Gu Qing."

"The methods I used were similar to his."

Hearing Fang Ze's words, Xun Yi was dumbfounded for a moment, then her face flushed with anger.

However, Fang Ze ignored her gaze and continued looking at Yun Su, saying, "Anyway, after many days of investigation, I finally traced it to Qingfeng Ancient Street."

"There was a butcher's shop on Qingfeng Ancient Street that noticeably smelled of blood."

"Although it's normal for a butcher's to smell of blood, I still sharply felt something was off."

"Thus, I discreetly asked the staff there, and found out that the butcher's shop owner had changed in the last few days."

"The former butcher's shop owner had suddenly resigned, with no known whereabouts."

"This coincided exactly with the Hua Jian Department Chief's disappearance."

"Consequently, I searched the butcher's shop and, sure enough, found a secret room underground."

"The body of the Hua Jian Department Chief was lying there."
