The Forensic Doctor Better Than a Detective Chapter 512 - 292: Solved 1 Cold Case, 9 More to Go!

At 1:10 in the afternoon, the early sumr sun carried a bit of heat, shining on the concrete ground of the Jiangcheng City Public Security Bureau’s courtyard.

Outside the reception dining room’s private box, Mr. Ma leaned slightly forward, standing respectfully beside the three directors, while Mr. Li, Jiang An, and others maintained a standard standing posture.

Mr. Ma’s rough large hand firmly held Mr. Zhang’s hand, his tone sincere yet sowhat urgent.

"Director Zhang, we are truly grateful for you personally leading the team to Jiangcheng to guide our case investigation work."

"Honestly, I really hope you can stay a few more days."

He paused, glancing at the officers behind him, "For the upcoming case investigations, we still need your oversight in all aspects."

Hearing this, Director Zhang’s eyes ford smile lines, but his gaze thoughtfully turned to Jiang An standing aside.

He smiled aningfully: "Mr. Ma, had you said this before the case resolution, I might have agreed."

"Haha, but now there’s no need."

Then, Director Zhang looked around at the officers present, his tone gradually becoming serious.

"The Jiangcheng Police Team has a long history and a considerable number of solved cases, but indeed, there are quite a few unresolved cases."

"Before setting out, we reviewed Jiangcheng’s top ten unsolved cases; now only one has been solved, leaving nine still unresolved."

Briefly, his gaze sharply turned to Mr. Ma, "The burden on your shoulders is quite significant."

Mr. Ma’s expression imdiately beca solemn, the wrinkles on his forehead deepening.

He sighed long and fatigued, "Director Zhang, you’re right."

"Jiangcheng District is vast and populous, with rapid economic developnt over the past two years, leading to an influx of immigrants."

He pointed to the bustling streets outside, "Look, the pressure on public safety managent and traffic control has multiplied at tis. Sotis, it’s truly... "

Seeing this, Director Zhang suddenly reached out and patted Mr. Ma’s shoulder, not too lightly or heavily, and his tone softened.

"Mr. Ma, you need not worry too much."

His gaze stayed on Jiang An longer this ti.

"Nowadays, the Jiangcheng Police Team is not what it used to be—"

He deliberately lengthened his tone, "This youngest backbone of the criminal investigation team has already beco the youngest leader."

Feeling everyone’s gaze, Jiang An instinctively straightened his posture.

Director Zhang walked up to him, speaking earnestly: "Comrade Jiang An, with you here, I’m confident the remaining nine unsolved cases can be tackled one by one."

He reached out to straighten Jiang An’s police badge, "Don’t let the entire task force’s expectations down."

Jiang An imdiately raised his right hand in a standard salute, his hand motionless at the position of his temple.

"Rest assured, Director Zhang!"

His voice was loud and firm, "Thank you for the organization’s support. I will surely rember the entrustnt and dedicate myself wholeheartedly in my new position!"

Then, Jiang An turned to Mr. Ma and Mr. Li, "I will certainly"

"closely unite around Mr. Ma and Mr. Li, and contribute all my strength to Jiangcheng’s criminal investigation career!"

"Good! Well said!"

Mr. Ma laughed heartily, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes unfurling, looking at Jiang An with full admiration.

Mr. Li also nodded along, revealing a gratified smile.

Director Zhang nodded, speaking earnestly: "Although our ti handling cases in Jiangcheng was tight, the gains were considerable."

He looked around at each officer present, nodding in satisfaction, "The supervisory team’s visit could be described as doubly successful: assisting in solving a decade-old homicide case and discovering outstanding new talent for the criminal investigation front."

"Thanks to Director Zhang for your attention to Jiangcheng."

Mr. Ma sincerely spoke, his voice sowhat choked.

Director Zhang added aningfully: "Should the bureau plan to recruit talents in the future, I hope Mr. Ma and Mr. Li will be willing to make sacrifices."

He laughed and pointed at Jiang An, "To deliver Jiangcheng’s strength to the national criminal investigation career."

"Naturally! Duty-bound!"

Mr. Ma imdiately stood in support, his face brimming with pride, his chest involuntarily puffing out.

During the final farewell, Director Zhang checked his watch and signaled to the two directors on either side: "Mr. Ma, all good things must co to an end."

"It’s getting late, let’s move."

The three turned and headed towards the waiting black business car.

The sound of the car door closing was strikingly clear in the quiet courtyard.

As Mr. Ma and the others watched, the vehicle slowly drove out of the Public Security Bureau’s gate.

The sunlight reflected brightly off the car body, gradually disappearing into the flow of street traffic.

Slowly turning, Mr. Ma’s rough palm heavily clapped Jiang An’s shoulder, his voice containing irresistible gratification.

"Comrade Jiang An, it seems the bureau’s criminal investigation leaders have started paying attention to you."

He gazed profoundly at the young man, "This expectation, this trust, you must not let it down."

Jiang An straightened his body, his eyes unwavering like a torch: "Rest assured, Mr. Ma! I will quickly adapt to the new role."

He paused, his voice firm and powerful, "To not only beco an excellent criminal investigation expert but also a leader whom the organization can trust."

Beside him, Mr. Li’s face still carried the joy of case-solving, as he stealthily tugged Mr. Ma’s sleeve, lowering his voice: "Mr. Ma, about the comndation and award..."

His eyes glowed with expectation, "You ntioned this morning it would be at least second class."

"But given how highly our performance is rated by the bureau leaders, might there be a chance for first class?"

His voice grew lighter, "The difference between collective first class and second class is worlds apart..."
