The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

Chapter 762 Qin Chuan's Angry Remarks and the Criminal Investigation Division's Judgment

Conference Room No. 1, Nanchuan Public Security Bureau.

Qin Chuan, seated at the head of the table, had a grim expression and his brows were furrowed. Chen Kai, the head of the criminal investigation team, who was giving a report below, was covered in sweat.

"After receiving the emergency call yesterday afternoon, the Guangming Road Police Station immediately dispatched officers, and the scene was not damaged. The Criminal Investigation Detachment immediately sent a team of experienced officers, which I personally led, to the scene to conduct an on-site investigation."

“4名死者，其中两名老年人，还有一对刚刚结婚三个月的年轻夫妻。这对老年人是男主人的父亲和母亲。4人被害的时间是在昨天凌晨2:00~5:00之间。两名老年人先被杀死，之后是一对年轻的夫妻先后被杀。”

"The crime scene showed signs of disturbance; all drawers and wardrobes were opened. The extent of missing valuables is currently unclear, as all victims are deceased, making further verification impossible. Additionally..."

Criminal Investigation Division Chief Chen Kai looked up at Qin Chuan's expression as he listened to his report.

"Furthermore, at the crime scene, we found that the male homeowner, who had just gotten married, was tied to a chair and had his throat slit, causing massive bleeding and shock that led to his death. There were obvious signs of this. In addition, the female homeowner showed signs of sexual assault."

The severity of the case far exceeded most people's imagination. Yesterday afternoon, after receiving the report, the Criminal Investigation Division immediately dispatched officers. Lu Chuan also received the news immediately, but at the time he was directing the arrest of the third major drug lord, so he did not rush to the scene immediately.

Starting last night, Qin Chuan worked tirelessly to dismantle the drug trafficking network of the third-largest drug lord in Nanchuan City, arresting over 70 people in one night. Also that night, 18.9 kilograms of drugs were seized. Combined with the previous crackdowns on the Erguotou and Snake King drug trafficking networks, the Nanchuan City Public Security Bureau has dismantled 17 underground drug trafficking sites in Nanchuan City in less than five days, seizing 346.7 kilograms of drugs.

It's no exaggeration to say that the Nanchuan City Public Security Bureau, under Qin Chuan's leadership, has achieved a tremendous victory in its anti-drug work recently. Qin Chuan originally intended to capitalize on this success and, riding the momentum, launch a crackdown on organized crime in Nanchuan City, completely eradicating the city's three major scourges. However, before he could finish, a horrific family annihilation occurred. Four people were murdered, and the suspect's methods were extremely cruel.

Qin Chuan hadn't slept a wink last night. He convened this meeting early this morning after learning that the Criminal Investigation Division had begun investigating the case but hadn't made much progress. Chen Kai, of course, noticed Qin Chuan's grave expression; he had personally gone to the crime scene yesterday afternoon. However, the on-site investigation team hadn't obtained any particularly valuable clues. The suspect seemed to have left no fingerprints at the scene, only a few sets of footprints were collected.

Last night, they investigated the victim's social circle and found no obvious enemies, so the possibility of a revenge killing was basically ruled out. Chen Kai and his team's initial assessment was based on the fact that the victim's wardrobe had been ransacked and no valuable jewelry was found in the room, leading them to conclude that it was most likely a murder for financial gain.

"Because the young couple had only been married for three months, according to local customs, they would have at least some gold jewelry as part of their dowry. We found an empty jewelry box in the bedroom at the crime scene, but no necklaces, rings, or other jewelry. Therefore, we believe that this case was most likely committed for the purpose of robbery."

Because all four members of the family were murdered, it's impossible to determine exactly what's missing from the house. However, the jewelry box on the dressing table in the master bedroom is empty, suggesting that the female homeowner's jewelry was taken. Therefore, the criminal investigation team has made this preliminary conclusion.
