Zhang Yutao led the Special Investigation Team to Ancheng at the fastest speed possible. After taking over the personnel responsible for the bombing case at Ji University Building, he urgently arranged the work ahead.
As expected by both him and Xu Lie, the first line of inquiry focused on the recent passenger lists of travelers between Ancheng and Xing Cheng. Rather than considering improbable scenarios like internal leaks or a copycat in Xing Cheng, the Special Investigation Team believed that the perpetrator from Ancheng had traveled to Xing Cheng to carry out the bombing of the cold storage facility.
To be thorough, Zhang Yutao even extended the timeline to cover two weeks. The passenger lists for flights and high-speed trains between the two cities over this period were overwhelming, enough to make any staff member dizzy.
Zhang Yutao led by example, joining in on the investigation himself. He worked overtime, and his subordinates had no objections, working diligently alongside him. With everyone united in their efforts, their efficiency was remarkably high. Within just one day, the Special Investigation Team had screened tens of thousands of individuals and noticed Xu Lie's name on the list.
There was no way around it; Xu Lie stood out too much. He had taken leave from school to travel back and forth between the two cities and had been present at Ji University Building on the day of the incident. If he wasn’t a suspect, it would be hard to believe otherwise. Just looking at Xu Lie's movements over the past week practically screamed that he was involved.
"Impressive! This team leader Guo Zi Lian found Male Second Lead so quickly. Now we’ll see how Male Second Lead tries to hide," some viewers commented eagerly, anticipating how the plot would unfold next.
Xu Lie had already anticipated this outcome; since the bombing at Xing Cheng's cold storage began, he never thought he could conceal his identity.
The efficiency of this new Special Investigation Team was undeniable.
After completing the screening, Zhang Yutao instructed his assistant to call for a meeting while he projected Xu Lie's information and photo onto the large screen in the conference room.
Staff members filed into the conference room one after another. Many were puzzled upon seeing Xu Lie’s image on the screen, unsure why their team leader had projected a photo of this young man. A few subordinates with less conventional thinking began to speculate secretly—could this be a child of their team leader? Or perhaps a junior looking to transfer to the Special Investigation Team to gain some experience?
If such a young person had talent, they could easily be placed in a key position to reap some benefits and build a good relationship with their leader. If they were merely aimless, they could be assigned to busywork in the investigation team.
Although many were responsible for screening, only a few noticed Xu Lie and sought out Zhang Yutao to report their findings.
Others were still unaware that Xu Lie was the suspect.
Within three minutes, everyone had gathered, and Zhang Yutao finally stood up with a serious expression. "After investigation, this individual is the one with the highest suspicion on the list of recent travelers between the two cities."
What? This isn't just some team leader's child or a junior; this is a suspect in a bombing case?
The discipline was strict. Despite their inner doubts, everyone maintained a serious demeanor, mirroring Zhang Yutao as if they accepted this conclusion. However, when they looked at the unusually young photo and then back at the age in the documents, most of the staff were unwilling to believe that this high school sophomore was the criminal.
Zhang Yutao wasn't blind; he could see his subordinates' thoughts. Scanning the room, he noticed several people understanding the situation and eagerly raising their hands.
One person was called upon and immediately stood up to ask, "Team Leader, this suspect does not match the characteristics outlined by the Explosives Expert and the psychologist."
