"May you all triumph gloriously!" Lei Xin stood in the office and expressed this sentiment once more, feeling quite emotional.

The mission for the two detectives setting off this time was to go to Malaysia to bring a person back.

The suspect, Lu Xuekun, was a deep-sea mariner, currently aboard an 80,000-ton Panamax bulk carrier. These kinds of ocean-going vessels have fixed itineraries at ports, where they load or unload cargo, and all the crew needs to do is to keep working continuously.

Of course, when docking, they could get off the ship and rest for a few hours to several days, depending on the situation. However, before the end of a contract period, crew members don’t take long vacations, and if there are no Chinese ports on the stopover schedule, they don’t return home.

Lu Xuekun’s vessel was just like that; even close to the New Year, his ship wouldn’t return to China. He was planning to disembark in the Philippines and then fly back home.

The task force naturally didn’t want to wait that long and, after discussing, decided to extract the person from Malaysia.

Choosing Malaysia was also due to Jiang Yuan’s previous encounters with the Malaysian police.

Moreover, the criminal involved in those past cases was a serial rapist whose crimes had given the Dama Police Force quite a headache.

With this experience, Jiang Yuan once again contacted Cui Xiaohu from the Ministry and went through the formal channels of the Qinghe City Bureau via the provincial office. Then, through Chu Guanliang, the police liaison officer stationed at the Malaysian embassy by the Ministry, he was able to connect with Ni Cha and Zhong Renlong from the Dama Police Station, who were the senior officers in charge of the previous case.

The process might seem complicated, and indeed, it is, but for the police, handling inter-regional criminal cases isn’t usually much simpler.
