Upon hearing the news, Li Jianguo immediately followed Xiao Chen to the location, with Mo Yuan secretly following behind, feeling a sense of relief.
When Xiao Chen led them to the location, the scene had indeed been secured, but there were still some traces on the ground that had been hastily covered up.
But it was just a layer of topsoil; once cleaned away, a pool of blood was revealed.
The murderer probably didn't expect that such a small amount of blood would be discovered in such a remote place.
With summer fast approaching, a simple rain shower will wash away all traces of the past.
But things are so amazing; with Mo Yuan's guidance, they found it in such a short time.
"A murder must have happened here. It looks like the primary crime scene. Let's start from here and slowly search outwards to see if there are any other clues!"
Li Jianguo calmly analyzed the situation, and then led his men to continue the investigation and search.
Soon, in a more secluded corner, they discovered traces of freshly dug soil, and everyone immediately began digging.
Soon, a sack was dug out, and inside was the body of Bai Dashan, who had been murdered.
Xiao Chen said excitedly, "Captain Li, based on the information we have, we can basically conclude that this person is Bai Dashan. It's just a pity that he's dead, and the trail has gone cold!"
Li Jianguo, however, didn't take it seriously. While carefully examining the area with his head down, he also warned Xiao Chen.
"Although the person is dead, it's not a complete loss. Every crime leaves a trace! Notify the forensic doctor to come to the scene immediately and let them take over. They can analyze some information from the body!"
Soon, a group of police officers from the county arrived, and a professional forensic doctor immediately took over the scene. Aside from a gun, there were no other clues for the time being; a full autopsy was needed. Meanwhile, one of the officers who had accompanied the doctor was reporting the latest developments to Li Jianguo.
"Team Leader Li, we have results on our side too. Through investigation, we found the original owner of the guns. It's a family in Qingshan Township. They used to be hunters, and the regulations weren't strict. They always had two guns at home. Recently, due to the crackdown, they said the township police station confiscated them!"
Xiao Chen immediately showed him the gun he had just dug up. "Look, the second gun, we found it! Captain Li, sure enough, even inanimate objects can talk. It seems we need to go to the township police station! As long as we get the records, we can find out who leaked the gun!"
As more and more information came together, and the intelligence was compiled, the finger increasingly pointed at Mo Youkun.
Although Li Jianguo felt somewhat relieved that the truth was about to come out, he dared not be careless about this final step.
"Xiao Chen, here's what we'll do. Go to the township police station right now and get the gun storage records. I need to go to the county to ask for instructions. The rest depends on approval from above!"
Then he said to Mo Yuan,
"Mo Yuan, you should go back first. Things are getting complicated, and it's not suitable for you to continue following along. It'll just give people something to talk about. Go home and wait. I'll give you some good news in a few days!"
Mo Yuan knew what Li Jianguo was worried about. He had already done the best he could to guide the case to this point.
Next, it remains to be seen whether Li Jianguo can withstand the pressure, and Mo Yuan is confident in that!
"Okay, I'm going home now. I'll wait for your good news!"
Mo Yuan could only wait silently at home.
Li Jianguo, on the other hand, originally thought that things would fall into place naturally; all he had to do was communicate with the bureau and he could take some measures against Mo Youkun.
Unexpectedly, they ran into a wall. First, they went to the leaders at all levels of the bureau, only to find out that Mo Youkun was involved.
It was clear that the two knew each other, and although they both said that they would not tolerate any crime and would punish it severely,
But their attitudes differed; one said it was a matter of great importance and required careful consideration.
One party argued that the implications were far-reaching and could have serious consequences, urging Li Jianguo to remain calm and wait for a meeting to make a decision before taking further action. After being deflected twice...
Li Jianguo could clearly see that the two were passing the buck, neither wanting to be the bad guy.
Judging from their demeanor, they seem to have a fairly good relationship with Mo Youkun.
Regardless of the outcome, what if Mo Youkun receives the news and prepares accordingly? What if he destroys some crucial evidence?
Then I'll be in a passive position from now on!
While it cannot yet be confirmed that Mo Youkun is the direct perpetrator of this murder, he cannot escape suspicion.
In particular, after Xiao Chen checked the files, there were no access records; all he knew was that the last person to handle the files was Mo Youkun.
He did not properly dispose of the confiscated firearms according to the prescribed procedures, and even claimed that they were lost by accident.
There's fault in every way, it's just a matter of degree.
Li Jianguo's idea was to first control the people, but the higher-ups kept passing the buck.
In desperation, Li Jianguo decided to take a risk, even though his superiors saw it as a sign that he couldn't see the bigger picture.
I heard that the newly appointed county head is quite young and has some connections.
Having just arrived in Xiangcheng County, and being like me, without any particular faction, I had no choice but to take the risk and try to talk to him.
That evening, Li Jianguo went to the county committee's residential compound to meet the newly appointed county head, Bao Ruijin.
After exchanging pleasantries, he was ushered into the house. Once seated, Li Jianguo still felt somewhat uneasy.
Looking at the other person, who was in his thirties and seemed a few years younger than himself, Li Jianguo felt a little embarrassed.
It's true what they say, comparisons are odious. It seems the rumors about the other person having connections weren't unfounded.
Otherwise, at this age, she really is too young!
The other person was quite composed. After sitting down, he continued to ask, "Comrade Jianguo, do you work at the county public security bureau? I'm new here and don't know much about the situation yet. Did you need something from me?"
Li Jianguo immediately recounted the whole story, and Bao Ruijin, sitting opposite him, listened attentively, showing great interest.
He kept asking about details, seeming to care a lot about this matter.
Seeing this, Li Jianguo was overjoyed; there was hope!
So he recounted the whole story in more detail, and even some details about Mo Yuan were unknowingly extracted from him.
After inquiring about everything, the other party said tactfully, "Comrade Jianguo, I understand the situation, but this matter is of great importance, and I cannot make a decision on my own. How about we have a meeting of our leadership team tomorrow to discuss it and then make a decision?"
Li Jianguo left in a daze, feeling extremely disappointed.
I thought things might be turning around, but I ended up hearing the same things I'd heard before!
