<h4>Chapter 977: Chapter 913: Remove Saburo</h4><h4></h4>


    "Captain Wang, we’ve received two more emails, I’ve printed them out," said the intern police officer watching theputer, handing over two documents to Wang Chuanxing.


    "Comint letters? Good stuff." Wang Chuanxingughed heartily, looked through the papers, quickly examined the emails again, and promptly forwarded them to the workgroup, then he went to see Jiang Yuan with the printed documents.


    The content of bothint letters primarily consisted of textual descriptions, and though not sufficiently conclusive as proof, they both pointed toward a suspect named "Han Sang" and his gang.


    The same name had appeared in previousint letters, and personnel had already been dispatched to investigate.


    Therefore, Wang Chuanxing wrote a memo for Jiang Yuan, then called the officers who had gone to investigate.


    As the call connected, he could hear the howling wind and many people shouting through the headset.


    "Hello? How’s the situation over there?" Wang Chuanxing was a bit worried. If this was indeed the thief’s den, sending only four people might be too few and likely to be disadvantageous.


    "We’ve broken into the thief’s nest," replied the officer Weng Fang with a determined tone, followed by a loud gunshot.


    "Gunshots? Weng Fang, do you need backup? Where are you?" Captain Wang suddenly sat upright.


    Weng Fang hummed affirmatively, his voice calm, "No worries, someone just fired a warning shot into the air, it’s a bit chaotic here, we can’t let them escape. We’re fine, the local police have sent arge team to assist, and they are very supportive. The one who fired was their officer."


    Captain Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief. In the context of domesticw enforcement, if police really decided to use firearms, iming one against a hundred might be an exaggeration, but handling ten by one was truly manageable; as long as non-lethal spots were targeted. Unlike the Old American cops who would first fire three shots to the chest in a T-shape to check the situation, then aim three more at the head, even the beanbag shots could send someone to the funeral home.


    Meanwhile, Weng Fang continued, "This Han Sang’s gang is quiterge, and their crimes are likely significant. Just now if the chief of the criminal police hadn’t made the decisive shot, someone would have escaped. They really dare to resist."


    "First, ensure safety," advised Wang Chuanxing, echoing Huang Qiangmin’s traditional teaching method, then asked, "Have we caught anyone yet? Or is there a need for a more forceful capture and pursuit?"


    "We’re watching the main suspect right now, some minions might manage to flee, we don’t have many more people than them." Weng Fang paused, then added, "I have to go now, we’re moving in."


    "Alright, alright." Captain Wang put down the phone, thought for a moment, briefly exined the situation to Tang Jia and others who were also listening, then hurried to the neighboring conference room to report to Jiang Yuan.


    The next day.


    Early morning.


    Professor Li, deeply asleep cuddling his dog, was awoken by the familiar rm ringing.


    "Woof!" Professor Li answered the phone, and the dog barked first.


    The caller was one of Professor Li’s graduate students, a distant disciple unfamiliar with senior members, hearing the voice from the other side prompted images of numerous illegal websites in his mind, suppressing his shock and desire to share, he said, "Professor, I got a notice from Jiang Yuan, there’s a meeting on the project scheduled to convene in one hour."


    Professor Li was stunned, "He might as well consider us his employees at this rate."


    "Should I reply with that?" asked the student, unsure of how tomunicate with people in society.


    Professor Li, clearly ufortable, hard-swallowed his phlegm and pped his dog’s backside, "Of course not. Never mind, I’m up now. Tell them I’ming from outside and might be slightlyte."


    "Yes."


    "Also, why does Jiang Yuan want to hold a project discussion? Isn’t his forensic work finished?" Professor Li spoke as he leisurely dressed.


    The student quickly added, "He mentioned... bringing suspected stolen artifacts from Yong King’s Great Tomb to the university to help with authentication..."


    "Why didn’t you say that earlier?" Professor Li angrily switched to speaker and threw the phone aside, quickly dressing, and said, "Tell them I’ll rush over as quickly as possible, I’ll try to be on time."


    "Ah... Don’t rush too much, be careful on the road," the student thought he was showing concern for the professor.


    Professor Li, irritated again, gave another p to the dog’s backside, "Are you trying to get me killed?"


    Shannan University Archaeology Department.


    Several long tables were pieced together, each hosting several artifacts, including porcin, pottery, as well as silver and copper ware, and even more unique items like silk-burning furnaces and stone pirs.


    Professors Tao, Sun, Li, and Zhang each stood in front of a table, some closely inspecting, others stepping back to scrutinize the pieces.


    The professors in the department, generally, were not well-versed in artifact identification; at most, their knowledge extended only to categorizing and dating the items, and they wouldn’t dare purchase relics not unearthed by themselves, much like their understanding of anthropology.


    However, assuming that these artifacts came from Yong King’s Great Tomb, the four quickly ssified them.


    Tao Yajie couldn’t hide her excitement, saying, "The form looks correct, and with this, our final weakness ispensated."


    "I agree, it wouldn’t be strange for these items to be found in Yong King’s Great Tomb," Professor Li, who had arrived just before the meeting, said softly, "Jiang... Jiang, may I ask where these artifacts are from? I mean no offense, I just want to know about their provenance. You know, we value a well-documented lineage..."


    His exnation was somewhat awkward, but the other three professors were curious too, so none interjected.


    Jiang Yuan felt it necessary to rify, "What you see here is mainly stolen by a tomb-robbing gang led by Han Sang. After their sess, they divided the loot in their hotel room. Sang got items numbered 1 to 4, four antiques in total, and the others got between two to four pieces each. In total, 42 artifacts were stolen."


    With 28 artifactsid out on the table, a clever student calcted, "So, 14 pieces were sold?"


    "All were sold, just through different channels." Jiang Yuan paused, "Han Sang’s gang has beenpletely arrested, some downstream dealers were caught, and through these few dealers, we apprehended several suspects who bought the stolen goods. These are what were confiscated on the spot. Additionally, some were sold by dealers to other dealers, and some might have passed through four to five hands, which will take more time to recover."


    "That quick?" Tao Yajie expressed surprise, then chuckled, "From what I know, typical cases involving artifacts take a long time to resolve, sometimes months or even years..."


    "Yes, typical cases are like that," Jiang Yuan didn’t assess other departments, as everyone’s resources were different from the start. Although there’s a special team for inspecting cultural relics within the administrative system, they aren’t part of the criminal investigation system, so there’s a difference in their effectiveness. Moreover, the criminal police system generally invests less in crimes regarding cultural relics.


    Jiang Yuan’s umted Case Team has evolved to a point today where Jiang Yuan selects cases himself. If he decides to tackle Han Sang’s case, it means dozens of elite forces will be involved.


    In fact, it went beyond that. Since Han Sang’s case was reported, Jiang Yuan’s team deployed just four members who coordinated with local police to take down Sang’s gang. Other contacts were almost the same; as soon as someone provided details about locations and persons involved, Jiang Yuan would make a call and local criminal police would immediately act to recover both people and items.


    It sounds tedious, but these operations werepleted in the past two days.


    It’s often said that all criminal police share a bond; usually, they amodate criminal police from other regions handling cases locally. Offering assistance for a couple of days is the norm, and only a few ces focus on fees. Correspondingly, everyone hopes for simr support if they’re handling cases in other provinces, expecting breakthroughs on longsting cases.


    But Jiang Yuan’s situation wasn’t usual.


    Jiang Yuan has managed cases for police departments across almost ten provinces, answering countless calls and messages; saying his reach is nationwide isn’t an exaggeration, but a statement of fact. Even within the field of criminal investigation, saying "there’s nowhere unknown to him" isn’t an overstatement.


    Under such circumstances, when Jiang Yuan seeks cooperation, local criminal police will wholeheartedly proceed.


    It’s considered as returning favors to Jiang Yuan and handling incidents in their jurisdiction; there’s no reason for inefficiency. The only resistancees from the criminals themselves, but that is least important to the police.


    The professors weren’t oblivious to worldly affairs; after exchanging looks, they began to metaphorically apud Jiang Yuan at the scene:


    "Well-deserved, Jiang!"


    "It should be said, it has to be Jiang!"


    "This way, our progress will be much faster..."


    Jiang Yuan waved his hand, adding, "The interrogation isn’t concluded yet. Once it’s finished, we should have a report detailing which artifacts were taken from the tomb and their approximate cements..."


    "That would be excellent!" Tao Yajie and Professor Sun exchanged a smile and said, "I just discussed this point with Professor Sun; it’s truly marvelous. The cement of burial goods sometimes speaks more to the identity and status of the tomb’s upant, telling us about ancient human living conditions."


    Jiang Yuan, who had also brushed up on relevant knowledge, waited until they finished, then casually pulled out his PDA, smiling, "Speaking of which, let me share some research findings from the past few days."


    "Please, go ahead." The four professors obediently took their seats on both sides of the conference table.


    Seeing this, other students dared not speak up and obediently sat behind their respective professors, arranged ording to the order of inner and outer disciples.


    Meanwhile, two undergraduate girls holding hands sat opposite Jiang Yuan, pretending to take a selfie while discreetly flipping their phone camera to snap several photos of Doctor Jiang. They could boastter that not only was the big shot skilled in handling corpses, he was also quite photogenic.
