Chapter 283 - 283 261 Disparities of the World

283: Chapter 261 Disparities of the World 283: Chapter 261 Disparities of the World As the workday was nearing its end, the usually quiet hallway was abruptly filled with a clamorous noise, and Jiang Yuan knew that Wan Baoming had arrived.

Jiang Yuan calmly tidied up his desk, opened the window to let some air in, and then sat back down to organize the desktop once more.

Huang Qiangmin laughed heartily as he entered the office.

At Zifeng Mountain, he might be just an ordinary captain of the county bureau’s criminal police squad, but in Ningtai County, he was indeed the spirited captain of the county bureau’s criminal police squad.

The captain of the Forensic Science Unit, Lu Jianfeng, also hurried out to make his presence felt.

His toxicology laboratory was desolate, so he seldom had the chance to see Huang Qiangmin on the fourth floor.

Wan Baoming, with his head bowed, marched quickly into the forensic doctor’s office.

His mood seemed a bit excited, yet also somewhat gloomy, as if he were simultaneously experiencing a bipolar disorder episode.

When Jiang Yuan heard the commotion, he stood up to wait, and soon saw Huang Qiangmin and the others enter one by one.

The already compact forensic doctor’s office became crowded in an instant.

“Captain Huang,” Jiang Yuan greeted as usual.

With a grin of precisely 66.6 degrees, Huang Qiangmin asked first, “Were the fingerprints a match?

Have you verified them?”

“I’ve verified them on my end,” Jiang Yuan said.

“Put it on the screen for Director Wan to see,” Huang Qiangmin laughed out loud, his demeanor somewhat resembling that of a certain type of dealer.

High and mighty!

Rich and overflowing!

Wan Baoming was not as thrilled, cautiously checking the internet and software on Jiang Yuan’s computer before looking at the fingerprints.

He himself had experience with trace evidence examination, and identifying fingerprints was something he could do with ease, but only ordinary ones.

Fingerprints lifted from fabrics were of the type he could comprehend but couldn’t match.

But having to confirm the identity between just two fingerprints wasn’t too challenging for him.

Wan Baoming placed the two fingerprints on the same screen, continuously comparing them back and forth, as if he were a dealer testing the purity of his goods.

Gradually, a smile also began to appear on Wan Baoming’s lips.

After all, the case was practically solved, and although it had come at no small cost, upon reflection, it might even be cheaper than conducting DNA tests for 30,000 people.

No, it was significantly cheaper.

Especially considering the expense of high-quality reagents, the genetic testing of 30,000 people could have funded a new building for the Ningtai County Criminal Police Team.

Wan Baoming looked up, disdainfully regarding the crowded room, and not-so-subtly hinted to Huang Qiangmin, “You’ve given Doctor Jiang such a small office.

With just a few of us here, it’s already too cramped.

Doctor Jiang often does fingerprint work for the province, don’t leaders from other places ever come to check it out?”

This morning, Jiang Yuan had just fried some sausages in the office, leaving his mouth greasy as he mused, why would I need a big house when I could just stay at home and rent a couple more if I wanted.

Jiang Yuan was contemplating whether to counter Wan Baoming’s remarks when Huang Qiangmin said from the side, “The leaders from other places usually handle things quite swiftly.

Once we’ve saved enough, we’ll construct a new building.”

The office was full of astute individuals, each flashing a knowing smile: Captain Huang did not mention money outright, but all his words hinted at it.

Wan Baoming laughed heartily, stood up, and said, “It sounds like you’re saying Changyang People are not straightforward enough.

Wait a moment, I’ll now call our Brigade Chief.”

He came to verify the fingerprints that Jiang Yuan had worked on because he feared problems; he made calls for the same reason.

As the capital city, Changyang City’s police arrest procedures and patterns differed from those of small county towns.

The same level of evidence placed in Ningtai County would definitely mean making an arrest first.

Even now, Wan Baoming still preferred to wait for the criminal police team to make an arrest and then personally verify the fingerprints or find other evidence before he would relax.

In essence, it just wasn’t swift enough.

Huang Qiangmin hummed twice, but internally, he was quite pleased.

With nothing else to do, Wan Baoming suggested touring the Forensic Science Unit, also on the fourth floor where they currently were.

This was the most relaxed option; there was something for everyone to do, and it allowed for a dignified way to await news…

Wan Baoming’s suggestion hit right at Huang Qiangmin’s intentions.

Huang Qiangmin agreed immediately, laughing, “Perfect, it’s an opportunity to showcase the determined spirit of Ningtai People.

Director Wan, if you have any high-quality equipment, or rather, outdated items you no longer want, please spare a thought for your struggling brothers in Ningtai County.”

Wan Baoming laughed again.

If it had been a few minutes earlier, he might have been a bit upset but now, his heart was brimming with too much joy.

After all, the case had been cracked.

The sacrifices made for this case were much more than just enduring a few jokes.

Many colleagues had worked overtime for several days, exhausted to death, only to go home to complaints from their wives.

Worse still were those like Brigade Chief Yu Wenshu, who stayed in their cars, not daring to go upstairs; having spent only one night at home, he rushed to the frontline the next day to join his comrades in sleeping on the floor, diligently working on cracking the case.

Thinking of how delighted Brigade Chief must be upon hearing the news of the fingerprint match.

At this thought, Wan Baoming suddenly became quite sentimental, saying, “Thinking about it, the murderer is possibly enjoying the last moments of freedom in his life right now.”

Huang Qiangmin said, “From the murderer’s perspective, it seems so.”

Wan Baoming then looked at those around him and said, “Yet we find this period of time so irritating and difficult, wishing we could skip right over it… The world is just so uneven.”

Huang Qiangmin was taken aback upon hearing this, had this guy just elevated the discussion to a higher plane?

The others were also enveloped by Wan Baoming’s cultured aura.
