In the afternoon, Song Guanchao and Cheng Xiang walked into the classroom, chatting while waiting for the class to begin.
At two o'clock, a man in his fifties, with partially white hair but still energetic, walked into the classroom.
This elderly professor's surna was Wang. He was a professor at the Provincial City's Political and Legal University, holding a high position in the academic community.
"Is Professor Wang not giving a lecture this afternoon?" Song Guanchao suddenly said in a low voice.
Chen Yirou said, "What are you thinking about?"
Song Guanchao said, "Professor Wang didn't bring a book."
The group was startled and indeed found that Professor Wang was empty-handed.
"The theoretical study courses for this period have been mostly covered."
Professor Wang stood on the podium and said in a bright voice, "This afternoon, there will be a practical course."
Everyone was extrely surprised; they hadn't expected the practical course to begin so soon.
Professor Wang said, "The Jiangzhou Public Security Bureau recently received a case that is very representative. I think you all can try to handle it."
"Professor Wang, what kind of case is it?" soone asked curiously.
Professor Wang said, "The general situation of the case is that a Party mber cadre within the police station was arrested for drunk driving and hiding drugs."
"But this cadre claims he was frad, and the drugs found in the car were not his but placed there maliciously to incriminate him."
"Although the police found drugs in his car, after investigating his past life, they confird that he indeed had no history of drug use."
"Because this cadre is a Party mber, the police dare not make hasty conclusions, and indeed the existing evidence is insufficient to convict."
Everyone nodded slightly, agreeing that the police's caution was necessary.
After all, they were also officials. If such a situation happened to them one day, and the police jumped to conclusions without investigating, it would be way too easy to take down an officer.
So in their view, this case must be thoroughly examined, and no rash conclusions should be made without evidence.
Song Guanchao realized right away that Professor Wang was speaking about Yan Han.
He just hadn't expected the Party school would use this case as a practical course.
Handling so administrative matters, the officials present had relevant experience.
But for a criminal case involving public security, it must be handled by professionals.
These people would simply not be able to contribute anything useful to the case.
It was unclear what the Party school was thinking.
"That's pretty much the gist of the case."
"You can form several small groups and each go to the city bureau to look through the files."
"A special task force has already been set up for this case. I'll have you join them shortly. If you have any thoughts, discuss them with the task force officials."
After explaining these details, Professor Wang left the classroom.
As soon as he left, people imdiately began forming teams.
So even ca to Jiang Yiren, inviting her.
Jiang Yiren shook her head and declined, saying she had already ford a group with Song Guanchao and a few others.
They were a bit disappointed but also knew that Jiang Yiren and Song Guanchao got along well in usual tis.
Cheng Xiang said, "Old Song, should we four form a group?"
Chen Yirou glanced at the other groups, "Aren't we a bit short on people?"
Other groups were all seven or eight people strong.
Their class had only about thirty people, totaling just four groups.
Their group had the fewest mbers.
Song Guanchao glanced over and said, "Investigating a case doesn't rely on having more people."
In his view, when it cos to criminal cases, ordinary people can hardly play any role.
Professionals should do professional tasks.
Ordinary people who haven't undergone training or education can't even figure out where to start, let alone solve a case.
"Let's go."
Song Guanchao headed outside, and the three quickly followed.
"Old Chen, you drive."
"Alright, leave it to ." Cheng Xiang walked towards the car door.
"I ant her."
Song Guanchao tossed the car key to Chen Yirou.
Cheng Xiang and Chen Yirou were both stunned.
"I drive?" Chen Yirou was speechless.
It wasn't that she was dumbfounded at being asked to drive, but rather at being called "Old Chen" by Song Guanchao.
She, a young lady, being called Old Chen.
Cheng Xiang was also speechless, "Why not let drive?"
"Because you drive too aggressively," Song Guanchao was more speechless than him.
From so outings they had in recent tis, he had experienced Cheng Xiang's driving skills firsthand, aggressive driving indeed.
"Alright then, get in."
Song Guanchao pulled open the backseat and sat down; he and Cheng Xiang both sat in the back, and Jiang Yiren sat in the passenger seat.
Once in the car, Song Guanchao directly dialed Liang Jianfeng's number.
He needed to ask about the specific situation of the case.
"Mr. Liang, what's the situation with Yan Han's case?"
"Are you coming over?"
"Yeah, on my way."
Song Guanchao had a thought and suddenly asked, "Was it Mr. Liang who contacted the Party school about this case?"
"You're not too dumb."
Song Guanchao didn't quite get it, "This case shouldn't be easy to investigate, right?"
"Indeed, it hasn't been easy to find any useful evidence so far."
"Then why did you..."
"You're good at investigating cases. I originally planned to ask for your help directly, but considering you're undergoing training at the Party school, I thought I'd just set it as a practical task. If you solve the case, you can also make a na for yourself."
Song Guanchao was a bit speechless. So the case was handed to the Party school just for him.
"Mr. Liang has so much faith in ? And even if I do investigate, after so many days without progress, it's not certain I can crack it either."
"It's a matter of effort. If you solve it, the credit is yours; if you don't, you don't lose anything."
"What a pity." Song Guanchao suddenly said.
Liang Jianfeng didn't understand, "What's a pity?"
"A pity it's Yan Han." Song Guanchao said, "I was quite hoping to see him go down."
Liang Jianfeng said, "Still, you should investigate it. Given his identity, if he was frad, it's quite a serious matter."
"I understand."
Song Guanchao was just venting a bit.
Like Liang Jianfeng said, if this case is solved, his journey in the Youth Class would essentially be brought to a perfect close in advance.
Cheng Xiang was curious, "Were you just asking about Yan Han's case?"
"Yes," Song Guanchao replied, "I got so general info, but I'll need to check the records at the city bureau for specifics."
Soon, he arrived at the city bureau, and others also arrived one by one.
They found the task force mbers and learned that the case was being overseen by Political Commissioner Wen Ru.
Wen Ru called them all to a large conference room.
This group of officials was typically in their early thirties, while the task force officers were in their thirties or forties, not much of an age difference.
On the contrary, this Political Commissioner Wen Ru seed quite young, which surprised them.
Moreover, Commissioner Wen was very attractive, wearing a police uniform exuding a sharp charm, with a neat bob cut, clean and refreshing, exceptionally pleasing to the eye.
Many couldn't help but have their gazes stray towards her.
"Please have a seat, Captain Liu, please explain the case details."
Political Commissioner Wen simply said, then walked to an empty seat and sat down.
The seat next to her was Song Guanchao.
As soon as she sat down, Song Guanchao caught a whiff of a pleasant fragrance.
