Chapter 74

New book in pink seeks support, collection, and recommendations! This week, I gave a panty push, but the effect wasn't great, and it didn't help much with collections and recommendations. So, it all depends on everyone. I sincerely ask everyone to give me a few more recommendations, so I have a chance to show up on the list. I bow in gratitude!

***************

When Wang Liming made this statement, Wei Zhengming was instantly enraged. Even if they had found so many pieces of evidence from the well, they still didn't dare to say they could catch the murderer in three days.

And how much skill did Wang Liming really have? Wei Zhengming knew very well that if he truly had such abilities, he should be the captain of the major case team, not himself.

However, Deputy Director Lei, who was in charge of political work, didn't care about these things. Deputy Director Lei usually liked people who could shout slogans, were bold, and had thick skin.

"Oh? Xiao Wang, this case is serious, no joking around."

Deputy Director Lei said this face-to-face, but the meaning behind his words was quite profound.

"Deputy Director Lei, rest assured. I wouldn't say this if I weren't confident."

Wang Liming had dealt with Deputy Director Lei many times and knew exactly what he meant. He wanted to show off his abilities to Wei Zhengming, to prove that he wasn't inferior to him.

Just now, he secretly examined the evidence and discovered an important secret, which was the main reason for his confidence. So, he didn't mind playing the role of a pawn for Deputy Director Lei, to make Wei Zhengming lose face.

"Oh? What makes you so confident? Tell me."

Seeing Wang Liming take the bait, Deputy Director Lei was very pleased, and the conversation naturally continued under his lead.

"In fact, after I examined the new evidence, I already had a grasp on this case. Deputy Director Lei, look at this black windbreaker. There are bloodstains on the cuffs, which the murderer must have worn during the crime."

Wang Liming picked up the black windbreaker from the ground and approached Deputy Director Lei in a sycophantic manner.

Deputy Director Lei knew nothing about investigations, but he nodded in approval when Wang Liming presented the evidence, though his brows furrowed, clearly displeased by the bloodstains on the cuffs.

But Wang Liming didn't notice this and continued to show off the evidence. He flipped the coat, revealing the lining. It was an ordinary black windbreaker, but at the hem of the lining, there was a protruding label. Normally, the label would indicate the material, care instructions, and other details, but there was an additional white patch attached with a stapler, on which was clearly written: "Wang one piece 20!"

"Oh? What does this mean?"

Deputy Director Lei seemed to perk up when he saw the small patch.

"Deputy Director Lei, do you remember the series of burglaries and robberies we've been investigating for the past month?"

Wang Liming's face was now beaming with pride.

"Yes! I remember. A series of home invasions and robberies occurred in the suburban areas of Qian Shan, Gaoxin, and other new districts. The perpetrator was brutal, and the cases were heinous."

Deputy Director Lei now played the role of the straight man, while Wei Zhengming and the other members of Team Two, standing on the side, had a bad feeling. Could it be that Wang Liming had such good luck?

"That case, we've been investigating for a month. Through a series of investigations, we finally identified the suspect, whose nickname is Wang one piece!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Liming felt a surge of pride. His posture straightened, his brows relaxed, and he even walked a bit lighter.

"What!?"

Deputy Director Lei seemed to be stunned by Wang Liming's news. This was a case reported today, and if the suspect could be identified and caught today, he, Old Lei, would have a great achievement.

Seeing Deputy Director Lei's expression, Wang Liming knew it wasn't the time to be coy and continued.

"Yes, we identified two suspects, one of whom is Wang one piece, a repeat offender who was just released from prison six months ago. He got his nickname because he always carries a long knife. Since his release, he has become even more ruthless, teaming up with his prison mate, Sun Yu, to commit over a dozen crimes in the suburbs of Huanghai City in just six months. Initially, they committed burglaries, but later escalated to robberies and assaults. We've been watching them for a while, and we planned to arrest them after their next crime. However, it seems we don't need to wait. I discussed this case with Captain Wei before, and I deduced that the motive was robbery and murder, but Captain Wei was unsure. Now, the evidence is clear. These two are completely deranged. I've already ordered the arrest, and we should have results soon."

Deputy Director Lei was so pleased that he exclaimed several times.

"Liming, you've handled this case beautifully. If the evidence is solid and the criminals are brought to justice, I will recommend you for a commendation!"

This time, Wang Liming had truly given Deputy Director Lei face. If he could be established as a role model, more people in the bureau, especially those who were still观望 (observing), would join his camp.

Would the police bureau still be a one-man show by Jingnan then!

"Haha, Xiao Wei, Liming has handled this case beautifully, but don't be discouraged. You must keep up the good work. In the future, you and Liming's team should communicate more. Don't look down on your comrades just because you've solved many big cases in the past. It's not good for unity! I won't ramble on. I need to report this good news to the higher-ups. I'll leave this to you. Clean up and leave quickly; don't waste the bureau's resources."

Saying this, he ignored Wei Zhengming and the other members of Team Two and strutted away, accompanied by the loyal Wang Liming. After walking more than twenty meters, Wang Liming turned and gave Wei Zhengming and the other members of Team Two a disdainful glance, muttering under his breath.

"This bastard, he's just a natural-born sycophant. He got lucky and solved a case, so what's he so proud of? Pah!"

Old Xie couldn't stand Wang Liming's smugness, spat at his back, and cursed.

Wei Zhengming, however, remained silent, his face dark. He took the black windbreaker, flipped it to reveal the lining, and stared at the small patch, lost in thought.
