Despite being incredibly wealthy, I want to be a prosecutor.

In the study of Suite 1, Zhou Hong looked at the answers written by the six people from Wudong and Tawei.

All seven have been released and each received $1000 in cash as a gesture of reassurance.

When releasing Udon and Tawi, they left their satellite phone numbers, meaning they wouldn't be wiretapped by the Chiang Luang police.

Actually, of the seven people's answers, Zhou Hong mainly looked at Wu Dong and Tawei.

As expected, it was pretty much what I thought.

Zhou Hong looked at the protective umbrellas offered by the two, and realized they were all fabricated. The so-called illegal and irregular incidents were probably also made up.

They still didn't believe they could turn the world upside down here.

Of course, my intention was simply to alert the enemy.

"Boss, can those seven bastards keep their mouths shut?" Jinsha asked worriedly from the side.

Zhou Hong was filled with helplessness. "Tongzi, Jinshazi, where have you made yourself into this time? This slang translation is terrible."

"It doesn't matter. We can't just kill them or lock them up for life." Zhou Hong waved his hand. "It's better to let them make a mess of things on their own."

……

Jin Shazai's concerns were correct. The next morning, Zhou Hong received a call from Prosecutor Solawong.

Upon arriving at Prosecutor Solawong's office, an unexpected guest was present: a plump elderly man with white hair, resembling a Maitreya Buddha. He was Lieutenant Colonel Tawang, the chief of the Fourth Precinct of the Chiang Rai Provincial Police Station (Chiang Rai District Police Station).

"Prosecutor Hong, you must have been frightened last night!" Director Tawang smiled slightly at Zhou Hong, then sighed, "This black sheep in our department is really a headache. Fortunately, Prosecutor Hong was not harmed."

Solawon was looking at a document, clearly delivered by Chief Tawang, when he looked at Zhou Hong with suspicion: "Last night, seven detectives, led by Captain Udon, forcibly searched your computer? They even threatened you with a gun?"

"Prosecutor Hong, don't worry, they have all been temporarily suspended from their duties and are under investigation by the Provincial Disciplinary Committee." Director Tawang looked at Zhou Hong apologetically again.

Zhou Hong nodded: "I was just wondering how to handle this!"

All seven people were bribed, and they all had "protective umbrellas" behind them. I don't believe that none of these seven people would slip up and completely reveal the truth to their "protective umbrellas."

So, would the "protective umbrella" believe that none of the seven people confessed? Even if they did, wouldn't they have the slightest suspicion?

Zhou Hong gave Director Dawang a deep look. Could it be that this Maitreya Buddha really was involved? Or was it because, as the head of the county bureau, such a big thing had happened in the bureau that he took the initiative to come and settle things?

"Hong, what happened last night?" After Dawang left, Sorawong looked at Zhou Hong.

"Teacher, you should just follow the normal procedures. Since the case is complicated and the main local criminal investigation personnel have all been suspended for violating regulations, we can only send someone from the provincial criminal department to assist our office in the investigation."

Soravon gave him a deep look. This little apprentice was quite protective of him and naturally didn't want him to get involved, so he made him pretend to be confused.

"You..." Soravon sighed, "Fine, go ahead."

……

In the afternoon, Zhou Hong met with the investigation team sent down by the Provincial Criminal Investigation Department. The team leader was Captain Sabita, a shrewd and capable woman in her early thirties.

The first thing to do, naturally, is to retake everyone's statements.

In fact, Zhou Hong was also thinking that this case was not about finding the truth through evidence.

In reality, it's a struggle between people.

Even if you use "time travel" to see what happened in the case, it won't help you "solve the case".

On the contrary, based on the information gathered from the events of the past few days, coupled with the covert investigation by his own people, he already had a general outline of the truth of the case.

……

"Prosecutor Hong, team leader..." A detective got into the back seat of the G-Wagon and handed each of them a hamburger and a Coke.

The G-Wagon was parked outside a billiards hall, and had been there since morning until now afternoon. After taking her hamburger, Sabitha gave Zhou Hong a strange look: "Are you just going to wait like this? Besides, isn't your car too conspicuous?"

During the re-examination, someone gave a new name, Pengpengqiu, saying that this person had been to the room where the crime occurred, and that it seemed to be the one who gave Xiaohong and Xiaofen the hallucinogenic drugs.

According to intelligence, Pong Pong Khoo frequently mingled in billiard halls, bars, and other similar venues to sell soft drugs.

The place I visit most often is the "GK" billiards hall.

"Pengpengqiu ran away a long time ago; we're not waiting for him," Zhou Hong said with a smile.

Jin Shazai and Zhu Mao also took some action, after all, the drug network here is deeply involved with the Golden Triangle. Through an old acquaintance in the Golden Triangle, Jin Shazai has been acting as a drug supplier in Chiang Luan Port recently and has obtained some useful information.

For example, the hallucinogenic water that Xiaohong and Xiaocai used at their gathering was not, upon testing, the common GHB (fairy water) or ketamine (ketamine).

Instead, it is the 5-MeO-DIPT that has just been listed as regulated, which is called "Fire Fox" in Elephant Country.

It has strong hallucinogenic effects and has just been listed as a Class I controlled substance.

In Chiang Luang, there is only one pharmacy that sells "Fire Fox".

"Do you think you can wait for the person you're waiting for like this?" Sabitha's lips curled into a sneer. She had a very neat single ponytail and looked like she was an older, unmarried woman. Although she was capable, she was said to be quite sharp-tongued.

"We're just stirring up trouble." Zhou Hong didn't know how the system would translate this sentence into Thai, but he was sure it would be understandable to Sabitha.

The phone rang suddenly. Seeing that it was Erhei's number, Zhou Hong answered it and smiled, "Gotcha."

It was Zhou Hong's suggestion that Erhei join the investigation team, since a local detective was needed, and there weren't many capable local detectives who regularly participated in preliminary criminal investigations.
