A few minutes later, Yan Ji's phone vibrated, and a gloomy, fierce, and young face appeared on the screen.
Jin Jie, male, Burmese. His name was not confirmed, and his age was unknown. He was between twenty-six and twenty-nine. When he was a teenager, he mingled with the local gangs. Over the years, he had been in many gangs. His crimes included accepting money to kill opponents in the black market boxing matches, illegal gun possession, ivory smuggling, killing military police in gunfights, selling large amounts of drugs, and so on.
Five years ago, the armed police seized a batch of heroin at the Sino-Burmese border. In the crossfire, most of the drug dealers were killed on the spot, and two criminals were captured alive. But the encirclement was not 100% successful, because one of the drug dealers appeared and disappeared like a ghost. In the case of being surrounded by five or six armed police soldiers, he seriously injured two of them and escaped unscathed. The armed police searched the jungle for three days, but there was no trace of him.
According to the drug dealer, this young man was sent by the "higher-ups" to supervise the transport. His role was to execute someone who dared to hide goods or gold during the transport process. No one in the entire smuggling team knew his real name. They usually called him Brother Jie according to the Chinese custom, or "Bojie" according to the Burmese custom. Only one time, the leader of the transport team respectfully called him "J of Diamonds."
Since then, this person gradually disappeared in Myanmar. According to the Burmese military police, he had died at the Sino-Burmese border. Who knew how much money the local military police received from the drug dealers.
Now it seemed that this person not only did not die, but also sneaked into China.
"J of Diamonds —" Yan Ji rubbed his chin and said, "If we arrange it according to the order of cards, this person should be the third person in the King Of Spades drug gang, right?"
In the restaurant of the five-star hotel, the sound of the piano was elegant, and the air was fragrant. The waiter occasionally came back and forth, but did not make any noise. There was a very subtle tinkling sound of cups in the distance.
Jiang Stops gently stirred the bowl of seafood porridge with a spoon, lowered his eyes and said, "Should be!"
Yan Xuan hissed softly, "That's not right."
"…"
"The number one boss and the number three figure of the transnational criminal group went to the rooftop of Hu Weisheng alone to search for a pack of 'Blue Gold'. Are they too bold or do they want to die? There shouldn't be any other reason, right? "
Jiang Stops said, "How would I know?"
He raised his head, and the two of them looked at each other in the air. After a while, Jiang Stops helplessly spread out his hands. "It's meaningless for you to assume these things now. How do you know that these two people are just bold? When the police arrived at the abandoned highway that night, it looked like only two motorcyclists came out to rescue J of Diamonds, but in fact, there was a whole drug caravan lying in ambush in the distance. If they really got into a fight, it's hard to say if the police would be able to escape unscathed … "
"I've thought about it many times after the incident," Yan Ji interrupted him. "I don't think the two of them had backup on the rooftop."
The surroundings were quiet. Jiang Stops was speechless for a moment, and finally said, "Then we can only speculate that when the King Of Spades and J of Diamonds went to the rooftop of Hu Weisheng's house, they were very sure that the police wouldn't come."
They had an insider who knew the progress of the police investigation like the back of their hand.
In other words, the fact that Jiang Stops appeared with Yan Ji was a real surprise to them.
"Could it be that the pack of samples Hu Weisheng was hiding was not the same as the 'Blue Gold' circulating on the black market?" Yan Ji suddenly said, "So they had to immediately take away and destroy this pack of samples, and they couldn't let anyone else do it?"
As soon as he said that, he realized that this hypothesis was not valid. The confessions of Ding Jiawang's drug manufacturing gang had corroborated each other. This pack of samples was stolen by Hu Weisheng from the big shipment, and its chemical composition shouldn't be anything special.
Yan Ji's mind couldn't help but wander a little. What if the importance of the Blue Gold sample wasn't reflected in its chemical composition, but in other aspects?
He tried to recall what happened on the rooftop, and through the fog of memory, he saw the pack of drugs in Jiang Stops' hand. Just as an unusual impression was about to emerge from the depths of his mind, his thoughts were interrupted by Jiang Stops.
"Are you asking this now to prove that this Burmese Chinese isn't J of Diamonds or something?"
"Hmm?"
Jiang Stops pointed at the phone screen and said, "He is."
Yan Ji came back to his senses, and his eyebrows twitched.
"Do you remember that I said before that after discovering the existence of the new fentanyl compound, Blue Gold, I had independently investigated this huge drug trafficking gang? Several different informants had mentioned the existence of this Burmese man to me. I guessed that maybe because they both had antisocial personalities and were similar in age, the King Of Spades trusted this underling and bodyguard very much. But I wasn't sure if he was the second-in-command or the third-in-command under the King Of Spades. In other words, I didn't know if he was Q or J. "
Jiang Stops finally put down the white porcelain spoon and motioned for the waiter to come forward and take away the last bowl of porridge. He then rinsed his mouth with tea and continued, "Since I wanted to destroy this group, I first had to figure out its internal structure. But it took a long time because the whereabouts of the King Of Spades and the Burmese man were too difficult to determine. I couldn't even get any image information … Until later, an undercover agent codenamed 'Rivet' finally succeeded in breaking into the group. "
Jiang Stops' voice suddenly paused for a moment when he mentioned Rivet.
Yan Ji stared at his eyes from the side and didn't say anything to urge him.
"Rivet's information helped me determine that Q of Hearts was someone else." After a moment, Jiang Stops finally took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice, "In general, their division of labor is like this. The King Of Spades remotely controls all the decisions, Q of Hearts is responsible for carrying out part of the plan, and J of Diamonds ensures that everyone is loyal to the King Of Spades to the end. At the same time, he has the power to supervise, deal with the aftermath, punish, silence, and so on. He is behind many bloody crimes."
"In that case, Q of Hearts seems to be the least involved?" Yan Ji suddenly asked.
Jiang Stops raised his eyebrows, "Because Rivet once said that she was a woman."
Yan Ji didn't think of this and was stunned.
"Rivet is a very outstanding and brave undercover agent. She was once Q of Hearts' direct contact. Many of the tips passed to the police were stolen from her." Jiang Stops raised the corner of his mouth. Although it was a smile, it didn't seem to be a smile at all, "Including the drug deal three years ago when the Gongzhou plastic factory exploded."
