141: Chapter 141 Leng Yue
Jiang Chen nodded slightly and, without a moment's pause, pulled open the rear car door and sat inside. His voice was calm and steady: "To the Chengxi District Suburban Police Station."
"Yes, sir." Lu Zheng responded, turning quickly to walk around to the driver's seat. He opened the door and got in, while simultaneously signaling the four in the back to remain on high alert.
The vehicle started smoothly and drove through the early morning streets. With the bustle of the night faded away, the city streets felt a bit more refreshing and full of the simple energy of daily life.
Jiang Chen leaned back against the seat, resting with his eyes closed. His fingertips lightly rubbed his palm, but his thoughts had already drifted toward his subsequent wealth layout.
Before long, the vehicle arrived precisely at the entrance of the Chengxi District Suburban Police Station.
Lu Zheng was the first to step out. Standing tall, he scanned the surroundings with a vigilant gaze. After confirming there were no anomalies or safety hazards, he turned to personally open the rear door and shielded Jiang Chen as he exited the car.
Afterward, he arranged for Liu Wei and Zhang Heng to securely bring Alan Thorne as the group walked in an orderly fashion into the police station's case-handling area.
Upon arriving at the reception desk, Lu Zheng stepped forward to explain the situation to the officer on duty, his tone clear, steady, and well-organized.
"Officer, based on clues from the national Class A warrant, we have successfully captured the fugitive economic criminal Alan Thorne. This individual is suspected of cross-border illegal financial crimes and has been on the run for years."
"At the same time, we have brought all the confidential documents involved in the case and have come specifically to coordinate with the officer in charge of this fugitive recovery task force, Captain Leng Yue."
The officer on duty's expression instantly tensed upon hearing those words. A Class A fugitive!
This was a major case under the key supervision of the province and city!
He immediately stood up and said in a respectful yet urgent tone, "Please wait a moment, I will contact Captain Leng immediately!"
A short while later, a sharp figure walked quickly out of the office area.
The newcomer was a young female officer. Her crisp, navy blue police uniform accentuated her tall, slender, and heroic figure.
She had neat short hair and exquisite, bright features. Her eyes held the unique sharpness and efficiency of a criminal investigator.
Her skin was a healthy, cool porcelain white, and her gaze was clear and firm. Her entire aura was brisk and decisive, carrying an innate sense of justice. Her appearance immediately drew everyone's eyes in the station; she was truly stunning.
She was the person in charge of this special task force, First Class Superintendent Leng Yue.
Leng Yue walked over quickly. Her gaze first fell on the restrained Alan Thorne, and she leaned in to carefully compare his features with those on the wanted poster.
After confirming his identity, she looked up at Lu Zheng and the other bodyguards with their extraordinary auras, finally settling on Jiang Chen, who stood to the side with a noble air and a calm expression.
Her eyes paused for a moment. Leng Yue was secretly surprised: the man before her had an outstanding temperament; his clothes were simple but could not hide his air of nobility. He was definitely no ordinary citizen.
She took a step forward, her voice clear and crisp with the efficiency unique to a female officer: "I am Leng Yue, the captain of this fugitive recovery task force. Please present the relevant evidence and explain the capture process."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, signaling Lu Zheng to report.
Lu Zheng stepped forward immediately. He clearly explained the complete tactical deployment of the capture, the precise positioning process, the specific steps taken to surprise and control the suspect, as well as the location where the suspect was found and the verification of evidence.
His logic was rigorous and the details were thorough. Simultaneously, he cooperated with the station officers for a preliminary verification and handed the black backpack over to Leng Yue for inspection.
Leng Yue squatted down to carefully verify the suspect's identity information and facial features. Then, she personally opened the backpack. With Sun Yi's cooperation, she went through the core evidence one by one, including confidential data and files of illegal capital flow.
Every piece of information matched the description on the wanted poster perfectly. The chain of evidence was complete and without any flaws.
When she confirmed that the person before her was indeed Alan Thorne—the Class A fugitive who had been on the run for years despite the police's dragnet—a flash of obvious surprise crossed Leng Yue's eyes.
This suspect had extremely strong anti-surveillance capabilities. The police had tracked him for months, spending a vast amount of manpower and resources with no leads. She hadn't expected him to be captured so easily and efficiently. It was clear that the other party's team was professional far beyond imagination.
She stood up, straightened the corners of her uniform, and looked at Jiang Chen. Her tone softened slightly, carrying both official rigor and a touch of heartfelt recognition.
"Sir, thank you for assisting the police in capturing a fugitive! After preliminary verification, the suspect's identity and the evidence involved are all authentic. We will complete the detailed internal verification and process approvals afterward."
"According to the reward regulations, the 8.6 million reward will be transferred to your designated account as soon as all processes are completed and confirmed. There won't be any issues, so please rest assured."
As she spoke, Leng Yue proactively took out her phone and looked at Jiang Chen. Her bright face carried the seriousness of official business, yet her eyes held a hint of admiration for this 'enthusiastic citizen.'
"Is it convenient to add you on WeChat? I will sync the reward approval progress and relevant procedures directly with you on WeChat. If you have any questions, you can contact me anytime."
Jiang Chen nodded, took out his phone to open his WeChat QR code, and added Leng Yue as a friend.
"I'll leave the rest to you then, Captain Leng."
When Jiang Chen spoke, his voice was deep and pleasant, his tone calm and polite. He carried an innate noble composure that made people unconsciously feel well-disposed toward him.
"This is our duty. Thank you again for your assistance with the police work."
Leng Yue responded solemnly. Looking at Jiang Chen, her eyes held more gratitude for an enthusiastic citizen and even more respect for such efficient assistance.
The subsequent handover procedures were quickly completed with Lu Zheng's assistance. After leaving the relevant identity and account information, Jiang Chen left the police station with his men.
The sunlight filtered through the leaves like scattered gold, making his figure appear even more tall and sharp. The noble aura he inadvertently exuded felt out of place with his surroundings.
Lu Zheng, Zhang Heng, Liu Wei, Sun Yi, and He Hai followed closely behind him.
They walked in a line with upright postures and steady, efficient expressions. They made no unnecessary movements, fully displaying their well-trained nature.
Sitting in the back of the lexus lm parked at the entrance, Jiang Chen leaned against the seat with a calm expression.
Zhang Heng was responsible for driving, while Lu Zheng sat in the passenger seat. He turned to look at Jiang Chen in the back and reported in a low voice, his tone carrying the stability of a completed mission without any boastfulness.
"President Jiang, everything has been handled properly. The entire process was clean, leaving no trouble behind."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the five men in the car.
Seeing the bits of dust on their clothes and pants, yet noting their sharp eyes and full spirits, a faint smile played at the corners of his mouth: "You did very well this time. You didn't let me down."
As he finished speaking, he casually took out six stacks of brand-new ten-thousand-yuan cash from the handbag beside him.
He first handed three stacks to Lu Zheng in the passenger seat, then distributed the rest to He Hai and the other two in the back. His tone was flat: "Ten thousand each as a bonus for your hard work. Zhang Heng can get his from Lu Zheng later."
