100: Justice may be late, but it will never be absent!

The scene fell silent.

Everyone lowered their heads in thought.

Director Zhang was right; he wasn't a genetic disease expert, and neither was anyone else present.

But combining what Yuan said with Wang Lin's suspicious points, the answer was indeed as Director Zhang said, obvious.

Wang Lin liked street racing and often went to the old highway on the east side of the city, so much so that even Section Chief Xie, who didn't care about such things, had vaguely heard about it.

However, he himself didn't have a driver's license. If he merely liked watching cars and not driving them himself, that would be one thing, but the problem was he had a history of being fined and having his car impounded for driving without a license.

Everyone didn't believe Yuan would lie about this matter. Although due to traffic law reforms, previous penalties would be erased from the System after a certain period, the traffic police still kept law enforcement records, and they could definitely be found by searching.

Yuan wouldn't speak casually about something that could be directly verified unless he was absolutely sure.

This also proved that Wang Lin actually liked driving and wanted to drive. It was clearly illogical for such a person not to get a driver's license.

Even if he didn't like driving, in this era, a driver's license was becoming standard. Even people who couldn't afford a car would get a license just in case, let alone a rich young master.

Even if he didn't drive, having a license as a backup might come in handy at a crucial moment, right?

Therefore, the answer was obvious: he didn't not want to get a driver's license; rather, he didn't meet the requirements to get one.

The requirements for obtaining a driver's license are actually quite broad; basically, a normal person between the ages of sixteen and seventy can get a driver's license.

Even disabled individuals, if they only have a missing or non-functional left leg, can still get a regular automatic transmission car license. If they have lost an arm, as long as the other hand is intact, they can also get a special passenger car license specifically for disabled people.

Only certain special medical conditions, despite appearing normal, are strictly prohibited from obtaining a driver's license.

The most common among these are impairments related to hearing and vision.

Wang Lin was certainly not deaf.

Then there was only one answer left. He was colorblind.

Someone colorblind cannot even distinguish traffic lights, so it's naturally impossible for him to get a driver's license.

And Wang Lin didn't have a license, but Wang Hai did!

This was why Su Meili could only go to the hospital herself to test the fetus's gender.

"Alright, I've given you all the information I have. I believe you already have the answer yourselves. Officer Liang, remember our agreement," Yuan's voice rang out, breaking the silence in the conference room.

Everyone snapped back to attention, looking at the phone with complex expressions. Especially Liang Yuzhu, whose feelings at this moment could only be described as a mix of emotions.

She realized that she seemed to have underestimated Yuan's capabilities.

This Yuan not only possessed an incredibly mysterious ability to acquire information, but his analytical skills were also fully maxed out!

He connected two seemingly unrelated events and deduced a conclusion that was baffling yet undeniably convincing. Even Liang Yuzhu secretly admired this ability!

Yes, she believed that if she had more time, she could also uncover the fact that Wang Lin didn't have a driver's license and that Su Meili went to get a fetal gender test herself.

She was confident in herself and her colleagues on this point.

However, she wasn't sure if, with these things laid out before her, she could immediately see the key point and connect them to form a chain of evidence?

A strong curiosity surged within Liang Yuzhu. Unlike before, when she was single-mindedly focused on catching Yuan, the current Liang Yuzhu was more interested in knowing who Yuan actually was.

Why was he so amazing?

"Okay, thank you, Yuan, uh, comrade!" Liang Yuzhu was lost in thought, but Director Zhang reacted and answered on her behalf.

He glanced at Liang Yuzhu, watched her hang up the phone, and nodded slightly.

Looking up at everyone, he spoke with authority, "You have all heard what Yuan just said. Next, I will assign the tasks that need to be done."

"First, we must confirm the authenticity of this information. This task will be assigned to Captain Liang and your Criminal Investigation Team."

He looked at Liang Yuzhu, who also composed herself and nodded seriously.

This task was simple: check Wang Lin's unlicensed driving record with the traffic police, obtain the medical examination reports of Su Meili and others from the hospital, and consult a doctor to confirm whether Wang Lin's condition aligns with the genetic pattern of colorblindness.

"Basically, I agree with Yuan's suspicion of Su Meili, so I think we can now focus our investigation on Su Meili."

Director Zhang continued, looking around at everyone, "Wang Lin is someone who is very good at hiding himself. This can be seen from the fact that he has close ties with Sihai Shipping, yet we haven't been able to get evidence all along."

"His identity, his low profile, plus his vigilance, make it difficult for us to find any breakthrough on him."

"But Su Meili is different. She has always been in a hidden state; the outside world doesn't know about her connection to Sihai Shipping or even the entire smuggling group. Therefore, her anti-surveillance ability and experience are likely not that strong."

Everyone present was a professional and knew very well that a woman's mouth is usually easier to pry open than a man's. This is because women are naturally more vulnerable in personality and more emotional, lacking patience and a sense of the bigger picture.

Of course, this is only in comparison to men; these weaknesses actually correspond to women's strengths. For example, being emotional means being sensitive, lacking a sense of the bigger picture actually means being meticulous, and lacking patience is actually a manifestation of strong curiosity.

"By the way," Director Li, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up. He hesitated as he looked at Director Zhang, "Lao Zhang, do you think the sudden frenzy of the smuggling group might be related to Su Meili's pregnancy?"

"After all, before this, we rarely lost two colleagues consecutively in the same case."

He continued thoughtfully, "Generally speaking, although smugglers are rampant, when facing police undercover agents, they only take risks if they are sure that the agent has obtained crucial criminal evidence."

Everyone was startled, and Director Zhang's face suddenly changed.

"You mean," the joy of achieving a breakthrough in the case instantly vanished, he spoke solemnly, "Wang Lin and Su Meili want to quit?"

"Yes, logically speaking, women are prone to becoming sentimental after pregnancy and will think about their children."

Director Li said seriously, "Because of maternal instinct, she subconsciously wants to avoid all risks that could harm herself and her child, including being caught!"

Director Zhang's expression was solemn; he had to admit that Director Li had a point.

He had also been wondering before why this smuggling group seemed a bit too rampant, directly resorting to killing undercover agents even when they hadn't obtained any crucial information.

In fact, it's not uncommon for Police to target the wrong people during smuggling investigations. Therefore, normal smuggling groups, upon learning they are being watched by Police, choose to lie low, trying to make Police think they made a wrong judgment and shift their target.

The act of directly killing an undercover agent is equivalent to openly challenging Police. Even if they weren't smuggling, with something like this happening, Police would pursue relentlessly and wouldn't stop until the real culprits were caught.

If a criminal gang is constantly being watched by Police everywhere, it naturally won't have the space to engage in illegal criminal activities.

The reason why the suspected Wang Lin-Su Meili smuggling group did this is clearly that they plan to completely nip all risks in the bud.

As for being watched by Police, they don't care. Because they have already decided to retire from the criminal world!

In other words, the ten days remaining before the fishing ban and the shipping off-season arrive are likely the last chance Police have to catch them!

Police must race against time!

"I agree with Director Li's judgment," Liang Yuzhu finally came back to her senses. She nodded solemnly, "When I went to the hospital to visit Qing Niao yesterday, Qing Niao also told me that she felt the smuggling group's actions were very hurried, and the dispatch of ships was even chaotic."

"The reason she was drifting at sea for so long this time was because the ships left port too hastily, causing problems with the handover. It's just that she never knew the reason and thought it was because the fishing ban was about to start."

Director Zhang nodded. He spoke sternly, "This means that while confirming the authenticity of the information, we also need to pay attention to another key point."

Director Zhang said slowly, "The entry point for this smuggling case investigation is seafood smuggling. And seafood smuggling is different from other goods; it has fixed sales points, distribution channels, and is highly time-sensitive."

"In other words, we need to proceed on two fronts. On one hand, we need to investigate Su Meili's relationship with the smuggling group and their illegal activities. On the other hand, we also need to investigate the sales channels and dens."

"Our goal is to take down the smuggling operation along with its sales channels. Time is tight, and the task is arduous. But..."

He looked around at everyone, "With Yuan's intelligence, we can carry out these two steps simultaneously. Doing so might also catch the smugglers off guard."

Everyone instinctively nodded, including Liang Yuzhu.

The battle of wits between Police and criminals is essentially a psychological game. And in this process, due to their roles, Police are always in a passive state.

Police must wait for the criminals to make a move before finding a way to resolve it.

At this moment, the suspected Wang Lin-Su Meili criminal group is clearly deploying strategies to counter Police's investigation of the smuggling channels, setting up obstacles, cutting off leads, and hiding themselves.

They would never have thought that Police could so easily bypass the complex investigation and evidence collection stages and directly target the two of them!

This is a rare opportunity for Police to take the initiative!

Director Zhang slapped the table, "Alright, everyone, as the saying goes, the net of heaven is vast, and though its mesh is wide, nothing escapes it. Justice may be late, but it must never be absent!"

"They want to wash their hands and erase all their past sins, and become clean people from now on..."

"We absolutely cannot give them this chance!"
