The deputy director sighed helplessly, "I understand your thoughts, but this matter is not that simple. You should be careful and not get yourself into trouble."
In addition to external pressure, the investigation also encountered the predicament of evidence destruction. During a raid on a company associated with Gu Yanting, officers discovered that the company's server had been formatted and important documents had been destroyed.
"Captain Zhang, it seems they've already detected our operation and destroyed the evidence beforehand," the officers said angrily.
Zhang Feng gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, we can't be defeated by this setback. We need to look for clues again. The more eager they are to destroy evidence, the more it proves that we're on the right track."
Despite numerous obstacles, the police did not back down, but instead became even more determined to investigate thoroughly.
V. Overcoming Difficulties
The investigation team readjusted its strategy, starting with seemingly insignificant details. Officers conducted a more thorough investigation of those around Gu Yanting, hoping to find new breakthroughs.
During the investigation of Gu Yanting's personal secretary, police officers discovered a large sum of money in his bank account recently, the source of which was unclear. After a thorough investigation, they found that the money was hush money paid by Gu Yanting to his secretary to destroy some key evidence.
"Captain Zhang, we've made a breakthrough with the secretary. In order to mitigate his own punishment, he's willing to cooperate and provide more evidence of Gu Yanting's crimes," the officer reported excitedly.
With the secretary's cooperation, the police found important documents that Gu Yanting had hidden in a secret warehouse. These documents detailed the entire process of his commercial crimes, including the list of officials he bribed, the amounts involved, and his plans to maliciously manipulate public opinion.
Meanwhile, the technical department also made a major breakthrough in recovering data from the destroyed servers. They successfully recovered some critical data, which further confirmed Gu Yanting's illegal and criminal activities.
With this new evidence, the police have finally built a complete chain of evidence, sufficient to bring charges against Gu Yanting.
VI. The dust has settled
After gathering sufficient evidence, the police arrested Gu Yanting. When the police appeared before him, he still tried to struggle and argue, but faced with irrefutable evidence, everything seemed so powerless.
"Gu Yanting, you are suspected of multiple illegal acts, including commercial crimes and malicious manipulation of public opinion. You are now under arrest," Zhang Feng announced solemnly.
Gu Yanting was pale and slumped to the ground. He knew that everything was over for him.
With Gu Yanting's successful arrest, the case entered the judicial process. In court, the police presented a large amount of conclusive evidence. Gu Yanting's lawyer attempted to defend him, but in the face of the facts, all his arguments seemed weak and powerless.
Ultimately, the judge found Gu Yanting guilty, and he will pay the price for his illegal actions. Through tireless efforts, the police successfully uncovered Gu Yanting's true colors, upholding the dignity of the law and social fairness and justice.
After learning that Gu Yanting had been convicted, Lin Wanqing finally felt relieved. She was grateful for the police's hard work and gratified that she had bravely turned herself in and taken the first step to uncover the truth.
"Thank you, officers. You have made me believe that justice still exists in this world," Lin Wanqing said to Zhang Feng with tears in her eyes.
Zhang Feng smiled and said, "This is our duty. We hope you can live a good life from now on."
The police investigation, which was triggered by Lin Wanqing's surrender, has finally come to a close after overcoming numerous difficulties, bringing long-awaited peace to the city.
