Chapter 849: Chapter 26: Inspector’s Presence_2
He glanced at Qi Tian and Wu Jiawei beside him, and continued:
“These are the colleagues responsible for the current investigation. Let them explain the progress of handling this case.”
Upon hearing this, the two imdiately sprang into action, spreading the stack of docunts they had brought over, connecting them to the projection screen via computer, and began to report on the work so far.
“According to our investigation, this incident is a random contract killing. The suspect is nad Park Tae-dong, a Korean investor temporarily residing in our country…”
“The process of the event is very clear, so I won’t elaborate further. Based on our tracking in the past few days, we have preliminarily targeted the umbrella of Seven Stars Group within Korea. We have reason to suspect that the mastermind behind this contract killing is likely among the top echelon of the group.”
“Currently, the suspect has just woken up shortly, and we are questioning him to fill in certain doubts about the case. However, all related suspicions cannot be defined yet, and we cannot confirm a direct connection between this incident and the Seven Stars Group…”
“…”
Qi Tian and Wu Jiawei jointly conducted the report, extensively detailing the current progress of the investigation.
On the other side of the conference table, Su Changqing listened attentively to their findings, didn’t interrupt throughout and only made a move after they finished.
He spread his left hand, aid the Star Network Terminal at the table, thereby projecting an image, and began speaking:
“We appreciate your efforts. On our side, we’ve gathered so information regarding this incident, and hope to share it with you.”
Hu Hu and others suddenly showed interest, looked carefully, and saw it was the portrait of a middle-aged man.
“This, isn’t it… the young master of Seven Stars Group, Jin Duocan…?”
Su Changqing nodded.
“That’s right, it’s him. According to our internal investigation results, the mastermind behind all this is the young master of Seven Stars Group, Jin Duocan.”
As his words fell, silence enveloped the conference room instantly.
Although there was speculation before, when the result was finally laid before them, Hu Hu still felt a headache.
Seven Stars Group, Jin Duocan, these are not ordinary people.
If he is indeed the mastermind, to make this guy pay the price truly might be tricky.
It’s not that the Abnormality Departnt is afraid of the opposition, such is clearly impossible.
The main reason, still, happens to be that we live in a law-abiding era.
Jin Duocan, as the young master of Seven Stars Group, is also a Korean. Even if the Abnormality Departnt knows the mastermind is him, it’s tough to catch him.
The vast Seven Stars Group enjoys a very high status in Korea.
Needless to say, if one wants to arrest him, the Korean governnt would be the major hurdle.
Korean officials surely won’t watch him get caught just like that.
Then, the level of conflict might not be a re criminal case, but could escalate to a diplomatic incident.
Additionally, catching soone isn’t just as simple as wanting to catch them; evidence is crucial.
Even with evidence, it requires going through a series of cumberso procedures like trials.
Seven Stars Group’s vast resources could hire heaps of professional lawyers; when will the whole lawsuit end, who knows?
Thus, the difficulty of the matter lies in these aspects.
Acting on a whim is impossible.
Frowning slightly in thought, Hu Hu was about to say sothing, but Su Changqing spoke before him.
“Minister Hu, I understand your difficulties; regarding this matter, we don’t intend to resolve it through your departnt.”
Hu Hu’s expression stalled upon hearing this.
The statent made earlier was clear; naturally, he heard the implied aning.
Not through the Abnormality Departnt implies using the Star Alliance’s power to directly apprehend people, doesn’t it?
Though reasonable, it inevitably raises unnecessary disputes since Seven Stars Group is a Korean company.
But what can he say?
Despite being the head of the Abnormality Departnt, Hu Hu is solely a Huaxia citizen; ddling in Korean affairs is beyond his reach nor necessary.
“Star Alliance places great importance on this matter. While we won’t interfere with other nations’ internal affairs, we absolutely won’t allow anyone to harm our mber.”
From across, Su Changqing’s voice echoed again, filled with firm determination.
“Regarding Mr. Jin Duocan, we’ve gathered adequate information proving he’s behind it. However, due to the origin of the information, it cannot be presented as court evidence, so we’ll adopt other asures for punishnt.”
His fingers lightly tapped the table, releasing invisible Dark Energy Fluctuations that diffused outward.
Hu Hu felt the air around seem to accelerate, slightly dispersing the originally oppressive atmosphere.
Su Changqing paused, then displayed a new video segnt.
This was intelligence collected by the Canglan Departnt over the past few days.
With their high-tech expertise, they’re more efficient than the Abnormality Departnt.
But their intelligence has one drawback.
It’s obtained through improper ans like theft and eavesdropping and thus can’t be used as valid evidence in court.
But this was irrelevant now.
For the Star Alliance, knowing who the mastermind is suffices—there’s no necessity to slowly battle it out in court.
Su Changqing’s visit is primarily to have dialogue with the Abnormality Departnt.
Though Seven Stars Group is a Korean enterprise, the Abnormality Departnt has nonetheless invested considerable ti and resources into this case.
Handling it without a word would be thoughtless.
In fact, Su Changqing already knew the outco on the day this matter arose.
Dostically, it’s virtually impossible for such contract killings to occur.
The mastermind, undoubtedly, hails from foreign forces.
With Seven Stars Group, a large manufacturer in the mobile industry, it entirely has the motive.
This is especially given the ergence of Starry Mobile, which surpasses current global technology standards.
The innovation of its new model will surely herald a new era for mobile phones.
Given this, it’s unsurprising that capital might engage in so wild ventures.
Su Changqing still hasn’t forgotten Zhang Xiaoman’s response upon learning about this.
Never had he seen their boss like that.
Though no extre reaction occurred, the gloomy deanor and intense Dark Energy fluctuation showed the boss was truly incensed.
Su Changqing could well understand.
While striving to elevate human strength, soone wants to sabotage it through assassination, anyone would be angry.
And the target wasn’t just anyone; it was his father.
Furthermore, his mother was at the scene, given this, if the boss wasn’t furious, that would indeed be odd.
“Phew~”
In the conference room, Hu Hu let out a long sigh, organized his thoughts, and then spoke:
“Regarding the attempt on Su Fu, the Abnormality Departnt expresses deep anger and will thoroughly pursue the matter…”
“However, since the suspect is from foreign forces, evidence collection poses several inconveniences and requires applying for a cross-national investigation warrant…”
“Moreover, as the suspect isn’t a Huaxia citizen, they’re not protected under our laws, and we have no obligation to oversee them. If they encounter safety issues during the investigation, it’s beyond our departnt’s responsibility…”
