Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 329 See? That's professionalism.

"My girlfriend is a rich second-generation..." Yu Dazhang thought to himself.

Team Hua's speculation wasn't based on a single cigarette, but rather on numerous similar incidents.

In reality, many children of wealthy families do become auxiliary police officers to fulfill their dreams of becoming police officers.

Why not just become a regular police officer?
Because money isn't everything.

The requirements for becoming a serving police officer are very strict, and money is not very useful in this process.

“My family is just an ordinary family,” Yu Dazhang replied earnestly.

Team leader Hua didn't dwell on this issue, and besides, there's no law that says rich kids can't apply to be police officers.

"That's all I can think of for now." He took a drag of his cigarette and exhaled a puff of smoke.
"If my deduction is correct, the other side detained the captured people for a period of time before sending them all to N Province."

Team Hua concluded by summarizing his analysis.

This is a brain teaser… Yu Dazhang silently gave Hua Kaiquan a fair assessment in his mind.

To assess a criminal investigator's competence, one should primarily examine their thought process and judgment.

Team Leader Hua's analysis just now fully demonstrates his keen insight into the case.

Working with such a person will greatly reduce stress because they will unconsciously and proactively share the responsibility.

"Feel free to share your thoughts," Yu Dazhang said to the other officers.

"Even if it's just one point of doubt, bring it up and we'll analyze it together."

Since he was already seated at the head of the table, he simply assumed the role of leader, which was also the reason why Team Leader Hua gave up his position.

Upon hearing this, no one uttered a sound; everyone fell silent, seemingly pondering the case.

Soon, the sound of lighters igniting could be heard everywhere.

Before long, almost everyone had a cigarette in their hand, and the bluish smoke swirled in the conference room as everyone's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Seeing this, Yu Dazhang was not in a hurry. He tapped his fingers lightly on the table and waited quietly.

About ten minutes later, someone finally spoke up.

One of the officers raised his hand and then said:
"The known modus operandi is that criminals abduct mentally disabled people in public places. I have a question about this: where do so many mentally disabled people come from?"

"In my memory, it is rare to see people with intellectual disabilities. You might not see one for more than a year or even longer."

After he finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Yu Dazhang.

Why are you looking at me like that...? Yu Dazhang felt that this kind of question didn't require any thought.

"That's not a problem."

Yu Dazhang looked at the police officer who asked the question and said:
"Before you ask this question, you should first understand some data."

As he spoke, he held up one finger:
"How many people in the current population of China have intellectual disabilities or intellectual impairments?"

Upon hearing this, all the police officers present shook their heads in unison, seemingly surprised that Yu Dazhang would ask such a question.

"More than 1400 million." Yu Dazhang still held up one finger:
"This number is equivalent to one person with intellectual disabilities for every 100 people."

His voice turned cold as he spoke:
"Do you still think that group is small now? Just because you can't see them doesn't mean they don't exist."

Vulnerable groups are always ignored and forgotten; people seem to only care about normal people.

People with disabilities tend to be ignored or disregarded.

This is what makes the most vulnerable groups feel most desperate.

When Yu Dazhang first came into contact with this case, he began to look up relevant data.

As he said, it's not even a problem.

With just a little understanding of this group, relevant information can be found in various data. Time ticked by, and the atmosphere in the meeting room grew somewhat heavy.

After a while, another officer suddenly broke the silence, frowning as he said:

"How dare factory owners use mentally disabled people as laborers? Don't they know that this is illegal?"

"To save costs, it's not necessary to break the law, is it?"

"This guy's a noob..." Yu Dazhang glanced at Hua Kaiquan speechlessly.

It's clear that he's too lazy to explain this issue.

No group is monolithic; there are good people and bad people, it's just a matter of proportion.

Everyone wants to make money legally and legitimately.

But if you want to make huge profits, you naturally have to do something different from others.

A horse cannot grow fat without night grass.

Everyone says we should be honest and upright, but how many of those successful people who have made it in the business world are actually law-abiding and honest?
The police officer who raised this question is assuming that businessmen are too kind.

When it comes to interests, nothing is off-limits.

Moreover, out of hundreds of factories, only 22 employ people with intellectual disabilities, which shows that most business people are still willing to abide by laws and regulations.

Team leader Hua was also somewhat speechless about this question. Seeing Yu Dazhang glance at him, he could only helplessly explain:
"First of all, it is not illegal to employ people with intellectual disabilities, but it is necessary to ensure that their legal rights are not violated."

"As long as the factory provides food and accommodation and has proof of wages, it can avoid legal risks to a certain extent."

“Here’s a key point: it is illegal to force people with intellectual disabilities to work.”

"And the process designed by the criminals can solve this problem for factory owners."

He paused here, his gaze sweeping over the people sitting around the conference table, finally settling on the police officer who had asked the question:

“That underground prison wasn’t just for training; forced labor was also carried out there ahead of time.”

See that? That's professionalism.

Without even needing to look up any information, Hua Kaiquan could rattle off legal provisions fluently and eloquently, adding his own interpretations as well.

The police officers he brought with him were all elites in the police force of N province.

That's enough. Everyone knows what's going to happen next.

The factory didn't need to force those mentally disabled people to work at all, because they had already been trained in the underground prison beforehand.

When you are brought here, just tell the mentally disabled people: if you don't work hard, we'll send you back.

That one sentence was enough to intimidate them.

In comparison, factory work may be more physically demanding.

But the environment and food here are definitely much better than in the underground prison.

This stark contrast made those with intellectual disabilities instinctively want to stay in the factory.

Instead of being sent back to that underground prison.

Therefore, they would naturally obey the factory's arrangements without any intention of resistance.

In this way, there is no forced labor in the factory itself; on the contrary, it is the mentally disabled people who are willing to stay in the factory.

The illegal steps were all done by the criminals; the factory only needed to employ workers normally.

This is the main reason why factories dare to employ people with intellectual disabilities.

Unfortunately, they overlooked one fact.
