* Whoosh! *
The convoy stopped outside the Delong Special Task Force. Xia Fan got out of the hover car while Dylan and Ma Zheng detained Chen Changsheng.
Perhaps because of what Xia Fan had said, Chen Changsheng did not resist at all. His eyes were even brighter than when he was arrested, and there was a hint of remorse in his eyes.
It was past midnight, but the Special Task Force was still brightly lit. It was another sleepless night. The killer on Wednesday had been unable to bring the case to justice, which had tormented the investigators of the Special Task Force for half a year. Every single one of them looked exhausted.
"Aren't they from the logistics department?"
"Who are they detaining? Could it be the Wednesday Killer? "
"That should be it. The logistics department seems to only have one job: catching the Wednesday Killer."
"That means the Wednesday Killer has been caught!"
"That's fast! That's impossible! "
From the official investigators to the handymen of the bureau, everyone looked at the people from the logistics department in astonishment. They stopped what they were doing and gathered around, looking at Xia Fan in disbelief.
Dylan looked proud. He raised his head and said, "Fortunately, the mission was completed. The Wednesday Killer has been brought to justice."
Shock!
Unparalleled shock!
What followed was a roar of applause. They clapped until their hands were red and slightly swollen.
"Caught, the Wednesday Killer has been caught!"
"Amazing, the logistics department really can't afford it!"
The entire Special Task Force was in an uproar. The news spread throughout the twin towers as if it had wings.
Wherever Xia Fan and the others went, there was applause. People hugged each other and celebrated wildly, venting the depression that had been bottled up in their hearts.
The brothers in the logistics department held their heads high. As the weakest department in the bureau, they had never enjoyed such exaggerated applause and blessings. There was no need to mention how proud they were.
A few minutes later, the originally empty floor where the logistics department was located was filled with people. Everyone wanted to see what the infamous Wednesday Killer looked like. They wanted to know if he had three heads and six arms. The cheers and applause didn't stop for the whole night.
In the crowd, Deputy Director Chu Chenfeng's face looked like he was crying for his father.
As the gold medal senior investigator of the bureau, under Chu Chenfeng's leadership, the Wednesday Killer had not been brought to justice for half a year.
But now, Xia Fan had caught the killer in less than 24 hours. It was a miracle!
"Tell us about it!"
"Yeah, how did you catch Wednesday's killer?"
The crowd didn't want to leave. They all wanted to know what had happened.
Xia Fan had no choice but to go to the front desk. He was surrounded by thousands of colleagues, but he still had a bright smile on his face.
Grabbing his hair, Xia Fan smiled and said, "Actually, the process of catching Killer Wednesday was very simple."
Pfft ~
Sounds of vomiting blood could be heard from the surroundings.
Simple?
That was a case that had tormented the Special Task Force for half a year. How could Xia Fan say it was easy?
Comparisons were odious. Everyone thought of the crazy days and nights they had worked overtime, and when they looked at Xia Fan, who was always smiling, they felt bad.
After a pause, Xia Fan said calmly, "Tracking down the murderer is actually a matter of direction. Following the wrong direction will not lead to a good result. As long as the direction is right, we will be able to find the murderer."
"At first, I also made a mistake in the direction I chose. Fortunately, I quickly realized the problem and adjusted the direction of my investigation. That was how I caught him."
"What seems like an unsolvable mystery is like a ball of messy yarn. As long as we find the source of the yarn, which is the murderer's motive, and sort it out bit by bit, everything will become clear."
Clap, clap, clap, clap ~
The crowd burst into applause again, expressing their agreement with Xia Fan's direction.
Although Xia Fan's superpower of smell was very useful in tracking down criminals, it was Xia Fan's thinking ability that led to the speedy solving of the case. From the beginning, he had determined that Chen Changsheng was an avenger, and that he killed for revenge. That was the most important thing. The other investigators in the bureau did not think in this direction.
They refused to let Xia Fan go, wanting him to tell them more.
At that moment, the elevator door opened, and a group of men in black walked out. They wore the same strange black uniforms. Even in summer, they wore windbreakers. Their hair was short and meticulously combed, and they looked very serious.
Swish ~
When the investigators saw the group of men in black, they immediately made way for them. The group of men in black did not say a word. They entered the interrogation room and took Chen Changsheng out. No one stopped them during the whole process.
"Take care of yourself in the future," Xia Fan said to Chen Changsheng's back.
Chen Changsheng, who was sandwiched between two men, was shocked. He nodded hard, and there seemed to be tears sliding down his cheeks.
Without a word or going through any formalities, the group of men in black took Chen Changsheng away in front of everyone. All the investigators took it as a matter of course.
"This is the Shadow Army, a group of cold-blooded killers." Fo You appeared out of nowhere, looking like he had just woken up. Xia Fan suspected that he was awakened by the lively atmosphere in the bureau.
Xia Fan smiled and said to his partner, "Where did you go? I'm afraid you won't get the credit if you miss the arrest. "
Tsk ~
Fo You curled his lips in disdain. "You can do this kind of brain-wasting thing. I don't care about the credit. The world is big, and I want to sleep is the most important thing."
"It's so noisy here. I'm going to the hotel to get a room."
After saying that, Fo You, the lazy guy, actually left …
.....
The people of the Shadow Army had no names, only code names.
They were all vicious thugs of the Alliance. After being arrested, the Alliance forced them to sign a contract to exempt them from the death penalty. Then, they did the dirtiest and most shady things for the Alliance.
Assassination, bribing politicians, providing weapons for the enemy opposition forces, and helping terrorists make bombs.
In short, what the Shadow Army did far exceeded the bottom line of normal human beings, and their hands were stained with blood.
A black frigate quickly left the Delong Star Region with Chen Changsheng in custody and headed for the secret base of the Shadow Army.
"Do you know who we are?" A bald second lieutenant asked Chen Changsheng in a low voice.
There was a blue code behind the bald second lieutenant's neck, which was the most prominent symbol of the Shadow Army.
Chen Changsheng looked at him and nodded gently. "I know. You are the Shadow Army. As a criminal, I only have two choices. I can either join the Shadow Army or be executed."
The other nodded slightly and asked, "Then what's your decision?"
Chen Changsheng said, "I will join and use the rest of my life to atone for my sins."
The bald man was a little surprised. Generally speaking, a notorious murderer like Chen Changsheng would not easily surrender. Even if he surrendered, it would only be temporary. He would still think about escaping.
To subdue such a wicked person, the Shadow Army needed to use cruel means to completely torture the mind of the wicked and make them willing to become the walking dead of the army.
But Chen Changsheng was different. He sincerely felt remorse and was willing to pay the price for his crimes. From his words and actions, he was so obedient that he did not seem like a murderous demon.
"Very good." The bald second lieutenant patted Chen Changsheng's shoulder and then left the detention room to find his superior.
The bald man's superior was a captain. He had blond hair and thick bones, but there was no cruelty or indifference in his eyes.
In the Shadow Army, the rank of captain was held by normal soldiers. They were responsible for checking and controlling the thugs under their command.
"Sir, Chen Changsheng reminds me of Qin Yuwei. That woman was also captured by Xia Fan. It didn't take much effort for Qin Yuwei to join us. She has been working for the army wholeheartedly for the past six months and has performed very well."
"It's as if Xia Fan has some kind of magic. When he captured the criminal, he also changed the criminal's mind. It's incredible. What did Xia Fan tell them?"
The blond captain smiled and said, "I want to know the answer to this question too."
"In short, the more investigators like Xia Fan in the Special Task Force, the better it is for our work. Analyze Chen Changsheng's mind. If he passes, he can avoid the pain of being brainwashed."
"Yes, sir," the bald second lieutenant replied and walked out of the office.
.....
Chen Changsheng was a wanted criminal in the Delong Star Region. The bounty on him had reached an astonishing one million Alliance contribution points.
The last time Xia Fan and Fo You worked together to kill 12 wanted members of the God Slaying Society, the points they got were less than Chen Changsheng's.
However, this reward did not belong to Xia Fan alone. It belonged to the entire logistics team.
According to Xia Fan, everyone should split the reward equally.
However, no one in the logistics team agreed to this plan. They firmly believed that it was all thanks to Xia Fan that they were able to capture Chen Changsheng.
In the end, Tong Guan, the head of the department, decided that Xia Fan would get 50% of the reward, which was 500,000 contribution points. The rest would be split equally among the department.
Five hundred thousand contribution points! If converted into money, it would be worth fifty million alliance dollars!
Of course, Xia Fan was not stupid enough to exchange his contribution points for money. That was because the purchasing power was too low. Many high-quality equipment could not be bought with money. He could only use his contribution points.
All the investigators in the department were very happy that the reward was equal. Their impression of Xia Fan had increased again. He was now the number one person under the head of the department. Everyone would listen to Xia Fan's opinion if they encountered any difficulties.
In the past, the logistics team was weak and could not hold their heads high in the bureau. Now, everyone in the logistics team could walk with their heads held high. This change made everyone the happiest. There were even investigators from other departments who wanted to be transferred to the logistics team.
In the director's office.
Huo Jiang frowned and said, "Let Xia Fan and Little Buddha go to the outside world? Isn't it a little too early? After all, he has only been in the bureau for a short time. Not to mention the complicated situation in the outside world, Xia Fan doesn't even know the internal affairs of the Delong Star Region. "
Not far from the Delong Star Region, they would enter the paradise of barbarians and criminals, the outer world.
In Cang Yue, the three alliances only occupied 13% of the territory. The remaining 87% was a lawless, barbaric land. The situation there was unimaginably complicated. There were crazy bandits and pirates who dared to attack anyone.
No one in the outer world was safe, and no planet was peaceful.
Chu Chenfeng said expressionlessly, "Of course, I know the situation in the outer world is complicated, but there is no other way. The indigenous country of Luan Ying is a target that all three major alliances are fighting for. There are high-level minerals in their territory that we urgently need.
"Whether or not we can help the alliance get the mining rights depends on the Special Task Force's performance. The Sacred Alliance and the Republic Alliance have sent their best investigators to the Luan Ying Kingdom. We will face fierce competition with our enemies.
"This time, for the murder of the old king, the elites of the three major agencies of Cangyue have gathered. The new king has ordered that the mining rights will be given to whoever catches the murderer. Xia Fan and Little Buddha are the most capable investigators in our bureau. Not sending them is tantamount to giving the precious mining rights to the enemy.
"Director, think about it. With so many high-level minerals, how many powerful warships can the Republic Alliance and the Sacred Alliance build? If war breaks out again, it will be a fatal blow to the Nebula Alliance!
"The reason why I want to send Xia Fan's logistics department to the Luan Ying Kingdom is entirely for the sake of the alliance!"
"Phew ~"
Huo Jiang let out a long sigh.
He was not a fool. He knew that Chu Chenfeng strongly suggested sending Xia Fan to the outer world with the intention of revenge.
After all, Chu Chenfeng had been humiliated by Xia Fan. He was a dignified deputy director and a gold-medal investigator. The case that he had not been able to solve for half a year had been solved by Xia Fan in a day. It would be strange if Chu Chenfeng was not upset.
However, Huo Jiang knew very well that Xia Fan's potential and Little Buddha's powerful cultivation made this pair extremely lethal. They were indeed suitable candidates for the task.
After all, it was the outer world in the wild.
Could the two of them do it?
