When Jiang Qing heard the phone ring, she immediately went to answer it.
“Hello, Interpol Team Three.”
Then there was a two-minute silence.
When Jiang Qing returned to the conference room with a face full of surprise, her gaze swept across everyone before finally landing on Han Ning.
“Little Qing, what’s wrong?” Wang Jing frowned and asked.
Han Ning was a little confused and guessed, “Did they mention me in the call just now?”
The commendation ceremony was interrupted by a sudden call. Everyone looked at Jiang Qing curiously.
Wang Jing and Superintendent Chen looked at each other, then urged Jiang Qing.
Jiang Qing took a moment to compose herself before revealing what she heard over the phone.
“The call just now was from the Chief Superintendent’s office. This matter is related to Brother Han. There’s a case that the higher-ups want Brother Han to be in charge of.”
After Jiang Qing finished her report, her expression gradually turned incredulous.
“Oh my god, how long has Han Ning been working for? And now he’s already leading his own team?” Zhou Zhan exclaimed.
Zhang Zhi and the others were equally incredulous.
Superintendent Chen was deep in thought.
“That’s a good thing! Everyone knows how capable Han Ning is. We must seize this opportunity!”
In the conference room, only Wang Jing was not surprised that Han Ning was put in charge of a case. After all, she had already seen her junior’s ability.
“Yeah, I agree with this decision. Little Han is still very capable. Did they say anything else over the phone?”
Superintendent Chen acknowledged Han Ning’s ability.
Han Ning was also his subordinate. If he did well, he would benefit as well.
“They didn’t tell me the details. They just asked Han Ning to be in charge of this case. It’s an international case,” Jiang Qing said excitedly.
Everyone was shocked, including Han Ning.
Although Han Ning knew that he had something to do with the phone call, he didn’t expect to be put in charge of a case.
An international case was a big deal. It seemed that Han Ning was really being taken care of by the higher-ups.
The commendation ceremony ended with everyone’s congratulations.
After working with Wang Jing on a case, Han Ning was now put in charge of an independent international case. Basically, he had been promoted.
Three days later, at the Interpol Department on the sixth floor of the Hong Kong Police Department.
Han Ning knocked on the door three times and entered a large conference room.
There were many people seated in the conference room.
“Han Ning, come over.”
When Superintendent Chen saw that it was Han Ning, he immediately called him over.
Han Ning walked straight to Superintendent Chen and Wang Jing.
“Today is just for us to get to know each other and understand the situation of the case. There’s no need to be so nervous.”
Superintendent Chen patted Han Ning beside him and said with a smile.
After saying that, he turned around to face the people on his left and right. His expression instantly turned serious.
“Everyone, this is Han Ning, the leader of the Hong Kong Interpol team. If you need anything, feel free to approach him.”
Sergeant Chen briefly introduced Han Ning.
The seven people on the opposite side had polite smiles on their faces as they looked at Han Ning.
Han Ning looked around and had a preliminary guess about these people.
Wang Jing knew that she wasn’t the main character of this meeting. She had been watching silently from the side.
“Everyone, I am Han Ning. I will be investigating this case with you. If you have any problems in Hong Kong, feel free to look for me.”
Han Ning introduced himself without any stage fright.
“Mr. Han, are you the only person in charge of this case?”
The person who spoke was a slender and handsome man. Han Ning looked at him doubtfully but didn’t answer.
The man didn’t say anything as he was being stared at. He only felt the pressure on him getting stronger.
Superintendent Chen, who was sitting at the head of the table, had a look of admiration in his eyes.
After a while, the woman on the man’s left coughed and explained.
“Officer Han, I’m sorry. Officer Park is not looking for trouble, nor does he have any intention of looking down on you.”
The policewoman smiled awkwardly and spoke fluent Chinese.
Everyone was shocked to find out that this group of people had a translator with them.
“My name is Cui Enxi. I’m of mixed blood. My mother is from Shanghai but I have never lived in China. However, my Chinese is pretty good.”
The other party was a woman. When she smiled, there were two deep dimples at the corner of her lips. At this point, Han Ning’s expression also relaxed a bit.
The female police officer could tell that Han Ning had not been offended.
However, she did not expect such a young police officer to have such a strong aura.
Seeing that Han Ning was no longer emitting a pressuring aura, she heaved a sigh of relief and continued talking.
“This is Division Chief Park of the Korean Interpol. He is the person in charge of this case.”
Cui Enxi introduced.
At this moment, Section Chief Park, who had spoken first, also realized that his words had probably offended the young man opposite him.
He was a little dissatisfied in his heart. In terms of position, he was higher than Han Ning. However, he did not dare to flare up because of the terrifying pressure that Han Ning had given him.
Cui Enxi was the interpreter in the team. The atmosphere in the conference room became much better after she accepted the task of introducing the team.
There were four people from the Korean side. Aside from Division Chief Park and Chui Enxi, the other two were young male police officers. One was Jin and the other was Zheng.
There were only three people from the Thailand side. The leader was Ya Cai. Han Ning felt a little strange when he heard their names.
The three of them were practically invisible the entire time. They did not take the initiative to speak or reply.
“Team Leader Han, we have finished introducing our members. Where are your team members?” Cui Enxi asked.
Han Ning looked at Wang Jing and saw her nod in agreement.
“My team has gone to gather intelligence. If you need them, I’ll call them over now.”
The team members for this case had been decided long ago. It was Zhou Zhan and Zhang Zhi. Jiang Qing would also be involved in odd jobs. A four-person team was already more than enough. Han Ning’s deduction skill was the most important thing here.
“If possible, of course. The case is still rather urgent. We hope to reduce the unnecessary meetings later.”
Han Ning nodded and sent them a message.
“Alright, since everyone is here, let’s officially start the meeting.”
Han Ning sat on the main seat and looked around at everyone.
Superintendent Chen and Wang Jing had left long ago. After all, the two of them were not insignificant figures. There were a lot of things they needed to do. They knew that Han Ning had the ability to control the situation, so there was naturally no need for them to stay.
Zhang Zhi set up the feed, and Jiang Qing was ready to start taking notes. Cui Enxi walked to the stage in front of them and took the remote Zhang Zhi handed him. The first case discussion began.
“We’ve already locked on to the target of this case, an international serial killer. This target is also the Great Han City serial killer, Li Chunzai, from 15 years ago!”
Cui Enxi stood in front of the screen and started to introduce the case seriously..
