Sun Tao looked a little embarrassed and said, "He said that once he becomes chairman, he will promote me to vice president, in charge of logistics management, with an annual salary of one million. Wouldn't I be able to do whatever I want in Hongcheng?"

Guan Feng: "..."

He glanced at Sun Tao and couldn't see where the other man had the ability to be a vice president.

However, people rarely have self-awareness.

He then asked some more detailed questions.

When all the details of the case were laid bare before them.

Guan Feng immediately reported to Director Bai.

Director Bai was also taken aback upon hearing this, and said, "This matter is of utmost importance. Where are Lao Zheng and Liu Yumin? When will they arrive?"

Zheng Yuandong said, "There are only a few high-speed trains a day. They are already on the high-speed train and have taken control of Li Chao. He will definitely not escape."

Director Bai said, "Arrest Li Fu and Yan Liang immediately. This case must be dealt with as soon as possible. Xiao Guan, get ready. We'll report to the big boss in person later."

Guan Feng stood at attention and replied, "Received! But Director Bai, the provincial technical department has arrived. Should we wait for their results before making a decision?"

Director Bai said, "Your consideration makes sense. Let's go to the technical department to check the situation first."

When the group arrived, Chen Xuewen and the forensic doctor Qin were circling around the machine in the hall. They noticed Director Bai and the others and greeted them.

Director Bai asked, "Any progress?"

Chen Xuewen said, "We are currently extracting hair and tissue samples for testing. Director Bai, when will our bureau get one of these machines? It would save the comrades in the department from having to run back and forth all the time."

Director Bai retorted irritably, "This machine costs tens of millions, more than our bureau's annual budget. You want me to provide it? That's asking for my life!"

Chen Xuewen pushed up his glasses and pondered, "What about the donation from Zhao Xiaogu and the others last time? I think we should contact the Municipal Bureau and try to scrape together enough money to get one?"

Director Bai shook his head and said, "Old Chen, Zhao Xiaogu's donation is aimed at the entire Municipal Bureau, and even at the front-line criminal investigation teams, not just the technical department. I can submit this report and then pat my butt on the back and say it's for the greater good, but you, Old Chen, will be the one being talked about behind your back!"

Chen Xuewen said, "As long as we can get the machine, it doesn't matter if people talk behind our backs."

Seeing this, Director Bai pointed at him with annoyance. He couldn't do anything about such a master who was so engrossed in his technology.

He simply stopped paying attention and patiently waited next to the provincial technical team members.

At this moment.

The relevant results have been released.

After comparing and checking, the technical team finally brought a report to Director Bai.

Director Bai asked, "Is this Section Chief Li from the department? Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to come to Hongcheng."

Section Chief Li shook hands with Director Bai and said, "Hello Director Bai, I'm Li Ke from the technical team of the department. You can just call me Xiao Li."

Director Bai looked at the man, who appeared to be in his early thirties, and smiled, "Li Ke is truly young and promising!"

Section Chief Li said, "Based on the analysis of the victim's hair and tissue, it was discovered that the victim had taken lysergic acid diacetamide for an extended period before his death."

Seeing that the others didn't seem to understand, he explained further: "This is a representative element of hallucinogens. It is a derivative of lysergic acid and a chemical component of natural lysergic alkaloids. When taken by ordinary people, it can treat mental illnesses to some extent, but it is only suitable for severe cases. Judging from the victim's condition before his death, it shouldn't have been necessary to use this."

Director Bai asked, "Can you confirm the timing of this medication?"

Section Chief Li said, "It will take about one to two months."

Director Bai nodded solemnly.

This timeline coincides with Guan Feng's investigation, significantly increasing the likelihood that Li Chao committed the crime.

He asked, "Can a regular psychiatrist prescribe this kind of medication?"

Section Chief Li shook his head and said, "This kind of hallucinogen is strictly controlled among psychotropic drugs. Ordinary hospitals don't have it at all. Only large hospitals like Jincheng and Shanghai have it. If you want to trace the source, you can consider this point."

Director Bai said, "Thank you for the reminder, Section Chief Li!"

Section Chief Li waved his hand and said, "This is our duty. If there's nothing else, we'll be leaving now."

Director Bai checked the time and invited, "Stay for dinner before you leave."

Section Chief Li shook his head and said, "A case has also occurred in Jincheng, and we still need to investigate it. We can't stay here too long. If Director Bai has time to go to Jincheng in the future, I can treat you."

Director Bai smiled and said okay.

He personally saw the group off to their car and watched them leave. Then he turned to Zheng Yuandong and Guan Feng and said, "The existing evidence fully demonstrates that Li Chao and the others are lying. Lao Zheng, ask Liu Yumin how much longer their high-speed train will take. Once they get off the train, bring them back to the station for questioning immediately. Also, what about Li Fuyan, Liang, and Zhao Qiang?"

Zheng Yuandong said, "I'll make a call and find out right away."

At this moment.

Guan Feng reminded him, "Director Bai, Li Chao is a psychiatrist and the mastermind, so he probably won't confess easily. Could we start with this hallucinogen?"

Director Bai asked, "What do you mean?"

Guan Feng said, "These kinds of drugs are controlled. No matter how famous the other party is, they can't bypass the restrictions on prescription drugs. I suggest contacting the Shanghai police to investigate the prescription of these drugs at the Shanghai Mental Health Hospital during this period, especially the prescriptions made by Li Chao personally. Then, we can visit and investigate these clients one by one. Maybe we can get some results?"

Director Bai nodded and said, "Your idea is very good. I will contact the Shanghai police right away and ask them to assist in the investigation."

He then led Guan Feng back to his office and dialed the Shanghai police number.

Briefly explain the situation over the phone and hope the other party can cooperate.

The authorities in Shanghai immediately stated that they would arrange for an investigation.

Director Bai hung up the phone and looked at Guan Feng, saying, "Come on, you come with me to report to the big boss."

Guan Feng said, "Would it be inappropriate for me to go?"

Director Bai said, "What's wrong with this? The big boss was very impressed with you during the last Haitian Factory theft case. This time, you made great contributions in both handwriting identification and locking in the direction of the subsequent investigation. If you don't go, who will? Don't feel pressured. Just report the case and recount the whole story. There's nothing to it."

Guan Feng said, "Alright, I'll arrange the work in the team."

Director Bai nodded.

After helping Guan Feng arrange the team's work, the two took a bureau car and headed straight to the Hongcheng District Government.
