Chapter 780 Have you checked Tang Haorui's basic information?
In fact, Chen Kai was well aware that his choice back then could be said to have saved his life, and Qin Chuan's rise to power this time was proof of that.
Why has Chen Kai been able to remain the head of the criminal investigation team without being punished?
It's important to know that Chen Kai, as the head of the criminal investigation branch, is still unharmed even though his superior, Deputy Director Zhang Feng, who is in charge of criminal investigation, has already been arrested. This proves that Chen Kai is clean, and only by being clean can one protect oneself at this time.
Qin Chuan had been with the Nanchang Municipal Public Security Bureau for less than three months, but there had been significant changes in the bureau's personnel.
After the smuggling case at the train station was closed, it involved many people at all levels of the Nanchuan City Public Security Bureau.
There were frontline police officers, deputy directors and directors of police stations, and even directors of public security bureaus, such as the deputy director of the Nanchuan City Public Security Bureau. For example, Zhang Feng was taken down because of this case.
In this process, the team that Qin Chuan personally assembled—the special task force of more than 30 people—has gradually moved up to important positions.
Although these positions may not be very high-ranking, they are definitely in key positions, such as the crime scene investigation office in the criminal investigation branch.
The Criminal Investigation Detachment's Scene Investigation Office is arguably the most professional place in the entire Nanchuan City Public Security Bureau for conducting scene investigations.
The technical materials obtained from the crime scene investigation office are arguably the most fundamental basis for police investigations. Much of the evidence comes from firsthand information obtained during crime scene investigations.
Although no one in the crime scene investigation office made any mistakes during this incident, and the original director of the crime scene investigation office was not transferred, Qin Chuan deliberately promoted a criminal police officer involved in crime scene investigation to the position of deputy director.
This crime scene investigator had been working in the criminal investigation division for quite some time and originally had the opportunity for promotion. However, he offended someone and said the wrong thing. When he was investigating a case, someone asked him to erase some evidence, but he refused and was subsequently isolated.
Therefore, it would be impossible for someone like this to engage in any shady dealings within the field investigation office.
In the past, some things could be overlooked, but now, things are clearly defined. When handling a case, everything must be exactly as it is, without any deviation.
Chen Kai is actually a bit of a fence-sitter.
This doesn't mean Chen Kai is truly a problematic person. Firstly, he is not greedy, doesn't take bribes, doesn't cheat, and doesn't accept money. However, when his superiors assign him tasks, he might do things that violate principles, and he doesn't care.
In essence, Chen Kai has been able to keep his current position because of his attitude, and now Qin Chuan has arrived.
He did whatever Qin Chuan asked him to do. If Qin Chuan told him to arrest people, he arrested them. If Qin Chuan told him to solve cases, he solved them.
In fact, Chen Kai's ability to solve cases is quite good. Over the years, the Nanchang Municipal Criminal Investigation Detachment has solved many major cases under Chen Kai's leadership. At least some of the more serious criminal cases have basically maintained a 100% investigation rate.
This is also the most important reason why Qin Chuan kept Chen Kai to continue serving as the head of the Criminal Investigation Detachment.
In the conference room, Chen Kai arranged for someone to pour tea for Qin Chuan.
"Director Qin, regarding Tang Haorui, should we continue the investigation, or take other measures?"
Chen Kai's statement was rather vague. If the interrogation continues, then without relevant evidence, the other party cannot be detained for more than 24 hours.
However, the current situation regarding Tang Haorui is different from having no evidence at all. Now, the suspect, Li Haichuan, only admits that Tang Haorui was the mastermind behind the murder of Zhao Lingyu's family, and Tang Haorui's fingerprints were found on the 20 yuan reward Li Haichuan received. This provides a complete chain of evidence that Tang Haorui ordered Li Haichuan to commit the murder. Unless Tang Haorui can provide a clear and convincing account, he will be unable to leave the Criminal Investigation Division.
The other measures Chen Kai mentioned were naturally more covert.
For criminal suspects with conclusive evidence of their crimes, who rely on their family's influence and wait for others to come to their rescue, Chen Kai has plenty of ways to get them to confess.
Of course, Qin Chuan disdains using such methods, and there is no need for them. For Qin Chuan, solving cases is basically about overwhelming people with evidence.
Over the years, Qin Chuan has risen step by step from Ping'an County and Zhulin County to his current position as the director of a municipal public security bureau. This period of time is not long, only two or three years, but Qin Chuan has handled quite a few cases.
Having traveled to so many places and dealt with so many people, Qin Chuan naturally knew very well what methods some people would use.
"The interrogation can continue, but we don't need to use other methods. Tang Haorui is definitely not the real mastermind behind Li Haichuan's murder."
Ok?
Chen Kai was taken aback.
"Director Qin, based on the clues we've uncovered so far, Tang Haorui's fingerprints have been found on the 20 yuan, and the match has been successful. Furthermore, Li Haichuan has personally identified Tang Haorui as the person who met with him and handed him the money. So, the chain of evidence is solid; we have witnesses and physical evidence, so there shouldn't be any major problems, right?"
To be honest, Chen Kai really thinks so.
Because the evidence was so conclusive, and the chain of evidence was so complete, it was as if the evidence had been placed right in front of Chen Kai and his team.
Qin Chuan smiled.
"It's true that the evidence is conclusive, but conclusive evidence doesn't necessarily mean it's true. Let me ask you something: before and after Tang Haorui's arrest, did you conduct any investigation into Tang Haorui's background?"
Chen Kai nodded.
"Tang Haorui, male, 31 years old, a native of Nanchang City, is the second son of Tang Zhentian, the boss of Sihai Group. He went abroad to study at an early age and only returned to Nanchuan City three years ago. He is in charge of the hotel business of Sihai Group."
Moreover, Tang Haorui is very business-minded. Since he took over the hotel business of the Sihai Group, there has reportedly been a significant increase in profits over the past few years. Within the Sihai Group, Tang Haorui's rise has been substantial, and many people support him becoming the successor. Furthermore, it is said that Tang Zhentian is very satisfied with Tang Haorui and intends to hand over the entire Sihai Group to him.
Qin Chuan glanced at Chen Kai.
This is why Qin Chuan kept Chen Kai as the head of the criminal investigation branch. From a professional standpoint, Chen Kai was indeed very competent and capable.
From the time Tang Haorui was arrested until now, only a few hours have passed. It was somewhat beyond Qin Chuan's expectations that Tang Haorui was able to find out so much information about the other party before and after the arrest.
