After the incident with Xiao Sizhou, Zhou Xuan resigned from his job at four different companies a week later and officially returned home to be with his family. His father, **, and Lao Wu were managing the antique shop, and his younger siblings were running the jewelry company. He only planned to find some time to go to Tengchong to purchase another batch of raw materials to strengthen their operations. Recently, the jewelry industry has been fiercely competitive, with most companies being acquired, merged, or going bankrupt. The remaining companies are mostly large corporations. While Zhou Xuan's company is weaker than some international giants, it has a strong foundation in raw materials, allowing it to compete with larger companies without being at a disadvantage.
Since he was ready to completely let go of these mundane matters, Zhou Xuan decided to go to Yunnan as soon as possible to purchase raw stones. After arranging things at home, the day before he was to leave, Zhou Xuan unexpectedly received a call from Fu Yuanshan.
The meeting took place at a farm where they had previously eaten together; it was a quiet place where only Fu Yuanshan was present.
Seeing Fu Yuanshan's expression, Zhou Xuan knew something was wrong and immediately asked, "Brother, I know you have something to say, speak."
Fu Yuanshan naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony. Bringing Zhou Xuan here already indicated he wanted his help. After pouring Zhou Xuan a cup of tea, he said in a deep voice, "Brother, I've thought about this matter for a long time, and I feel that I can only ask you for help. If I were to find an undercover agent for this case, their life would be in danger if they were recognized. But if you were to help, while there is still danger, it would definitely be better than with an ordinary policeman. Secondly, no matter how excellent a policeman I find, they are still a policeman. A person is most likely to expose their training in the most dangerous situation. Once their police identity is exposed, not only will the mission be ruined, but their life will also be seriously threatened. But you are different. You are not a policeman and have not received any training. Even in the most critical moment, what you show will not be the result of police training."
Upon hearing Fu Yuanshan's words, Zhou Xuan knew that Fu Yuanshan wanted his help with a very dangerous case. He hadn't revealed what the case was yet, but his serious expression showed that it was extremely important to him. He would help if he could, but there was nothing he could do if he couldn't.
"Brother, a large quantity of new types of drugs has recently appeared in Beijing. Our police's secret investigation revealed that the source of these drugs is from the border in Ruili, Yunnan. Of course, this is just one potential supply chain that has been uncovered. These drug traffickers operate completely differently from traditional drug dealers. If our police take action, we can only catch the low-level operators. We're not confident about catching the top figures at the middle and upper levels yet. Even the slightest disturbance will alert them, and if they escape or go into hiding, we'll be powerless. Therefore, before we've investigated all the supply chains, we mustn't alert them, or all our efforts will be in vain."
Zhou Xuan nodded. Fu Yuanshan wanted him to go undercover and clean up this drug trafficking network. That was no problem. He was going to Tengchong to buy raw stones anyway. As a businessman, he wouldn't easily arouse suspicion. His past experience in the police force was unknown to outsiders except for a few high-ranking officials in the city bureau and his colleagues in the four departments. Moreover, Zhou Xuan's file was personally handled by Fu Yuanshan. Once Fu Yuanshan deleted the file, Zhou Xuan's record in the police force would be completely blank, and no one could find out anything about him.
Furthermore, if these drug dealers are just ordinary people—and they can only be ordinary people, no matter how ruthless they are—then they pose no threat to Zhou Xuan. Dealing with people without superpowers is incredibly easy for Zhou Xuan, and since Fu Yuanshan is the one who needs help, Zhou Xuan will definitely step in to assist.
"Alright, I was planning to go to Tengchong to buy raw stones in the next day or two anyway. I can use this identity to investigate this matter, brother. However, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to solve the case. I'll do my best."
As Zhou Xuan spoke, he also had some concerns. It would be great if the case could be solved, but if it couldn't, then he could only do his best.
Fu Yuanshan waved his hand and smiled, "Brother, you don't need to say anything else. Just say what you said. I've basically learned about these drug dealers. They're definitely ruthless because they're doing things that will get them killed. So as long as they have direct contact with the police, they'll definitely fight to the death. Whether they surrender or not, they're going to die anyway."
Fu Yuanshan then took out a stack of documents from his briefcase. The documents had the word "Top Secret" written on them. Zhou Xuan chuckled and took the documents.
Fu Yuanshan then pressed him closely, saying, "Brother, you must remember, this information is top secret. You must destroy it immediately after you finish reading it. On the other hand, you also need to memorize this information; you'll need it later."
Zhou Xuan paused for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Big brother, you're putting me in a difficult position. I'm a simple person, and I find it troublesome to remember things. I don't even know if I'll be able to remember them."
"The information is easy to remember, and there's not much of it. Also, to ensure your safety, we can only communicate through regular contact. You remember my phone number, right? Call me once you're absolutely certain, and I'll make the arrangements immediately."
Zhou Xuan had no choice but to take the document and look at it. The document only contained one method of contacting the online contact. No wonder Fu Yuanshan said it was easy to remember. There was indeed very little information in the document, and it was easy to memorize. However, if it were a few more days, it might cause trouble.
After writing down the information, Zhou Xuan checked it again to make sure nothing was missing. Then, he opened his hand and, using his supernatural ability, the information immediately disappeared from his hand.
Fu Yuanshan was naturally aware of Zhou Xuan's abilities, though not in great detail. However, his trust in Zhou Xuan was unwavering and absolute.
This move proves that if Zhou Xuan makes contact with drug dealers or falls into their trap, he can control the situation far better than they can.
Volume 1, Chapter 588: Copying Sound
When the drug dealer in Beijing picked up the drugs from his supplier in Yunnan, he initially went in person, but later he sent someone else. Several times, it wasn't the same person as before, so Fu Yuanshan felt that the plan was still feasible. Once they decided on the person, they would immediately take control of the drug dealer in Beijing and then have him notify the supplier in Yunnan. This way, the person sent could potentially deceive the drug dealer.
However, this plan has one prerequisite: the drug dealer must make the phone call to the supplier as they wish, and the call must be made naturally. Otherwise, if the supplier is alerted, all their efforts will be in vain.
What Fu Yuanshan and his team wanted was not just to catch the supplier, but to find the more mysterious and secretive source organization behind the supplier. An international police organization had conveyed information to the Beijing police: a huge domestic and foreign drug trafficking network, and an important leader of this network had arrived in Yunnan, with the aim of developing a huge drug network in China.
Now that Zhou Xuanlai has been chosen to take on this underground job, he is undoubtedly the best candidate. Others may not know, but Fu Yuanshan understands. Fu Yuanshan immediately picked up his phone and notified his subordinates to take action and secretly control the drug dealer.
Five minutes later, the subordinate called Fu Yuanshan to report that the task had been completed successfully and that he was awaiting Fu Yuanshan's instructions.
Fu Yuanshan frowned again. The drug dealer had been under their surveillance for a long time, and catching him would be a piece of cake. However, based on Fu Yuanshan's experience, he knew that drug dealers with minor offenses were easy to deal with, but those with serious offenses would never cooperate with the police. No matter how much they confessed, they would eventually face death, and they had a clear aversion to the police. Now that the man had been caught, Fu Yuanshan had no way of guaranteeing that he would obey them and cooperate by calling their supplier without revealing his identity. This was a huge problem.
Seeing Fu Yuanshan's furrowed brows, Zhou Xuan immediately asked, "Brother, is there something else troubling you?"
"Let's go..."
Fu Yuanshan hesitated for a moment before continuing, "The drug dealer in Beijing is being secretly controlled. However, drug dealers are extremely resilient, and they know that given his crimes, he's going to die no matter what. So I'm worried that we won't get his confession and cooperation in a short time, or that he might pretend to cooperate but then suddenly show something abnormal when he's on the phone with his supplier. That would mean all our efforts have been in vain!"
When Zhou Xuan heard the phone call, a thought struck him, and he immediately asked, "Brother, do you think we should have that drug dealer call his supplier?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Fu Yuanshan nodded and replied.
Zhou Xuan smiled, stood up and said, "Da Ji, I'll go with you to the Municipal Public Security Bureau. I need to meet this drug dealer you've detained. Don't worry about getting his cooperation; leave everything to me. I guarantee you'll have no problems!"
Although Zhou Xuan is young, Fu Yuanshan trusts him without hesitation. Now that Zhou Xuan has said he will handle this matter, he must have a solution. If he wasn't confident, Zhou Xuan wouldn't have said it. Since he has, it means he can definitely do it.
Fu Yuanshan chuckled and, without any hesitation, got up and drove back to the Municipal Bureau with Zhou Xuan.
In the secret interrogation room, the drug dealer, wearing handcuffs, sat in a chair under a bright light. Two interrogating officers sat in front of him, and the situation was clearly a standoff. From the drug dealer's expression, it was clear that he was very resistant and showed no intention of backing down.
Zhou Xuan and Fu Yuanshan were in the interrogation room next door. This interrogation room was specially made with a large glass wall that could only be seen from the outside, but the inside of the interrogation room could not be seen.
Of course, the glass wall was also soundproof. Fu Yuanshan pointed at the drug dealer and said, "This is the one!"
Fu Yuanshan's subordinate, who was in charge of the case, reported to Fu Yuanshan: "Director Fu, this person is extremely stubborn and has a particularly strong mentality. I think it will be very difficult to get him to confess and accept punishment in a short period of time..."
Zhou Xuan had already made up his mind and gave Fu Yuanshan a slight nod.
Fu Yuanshan waved his hand, dismissing his subordinate, and then, alone with Zhou Xuan, asked, "Brother, do you have any ideas?"
Zhou Xuan pointed inside and whispered, "Brother, call those two interrogators away. I want to talk to that drug dealer alone!"
“Okay, I’ll arrange it right away. You talk to him inside, and I’ll keep watch from here. There’s a sound transmission device here, so we can hear what’s going on inside, but the sound from here can’t get through. The glass wall is the same; people inside can’t see out!”
As Fu Yuanshan spoke, he arranged for two police officers from the interrogation room to come out and then led Zhou Xuan to the door. The police officer guarding the door opened the door and invited Zhou Xuan in, then closed the door behind him.
There is a small window on the door for surveillance. If the prisoner makes any unusual moves, the guard will immediately go in and take control of the prisoner.
Zhou Xuan slowly sat down opposite the drug dealer. The drug dealer was very puzzled because after the two police officers who had interrogated him left, a young man in plain clothes came in. He didn't know what kind of show they were going to put on for him, but he couldn't make him speak, no matter what.
Zhou Xuan seemed to have seen through his thoughts and chuckled, "You think I'm trying to pry your words out of you? Hehe, let me tell you, I won't ask you those things. Also, let me tell you, I'm not a police officer!"
The drug dealer pursed his lips dismissively, clearly believing that Zhou Xuan was merely putting on an act. Given his crimes, unless Ru Duo was a high-ranking officer within the police force, no one else could possibly get in.
Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "Whether you believe it or not, it doesn't matter to me. I just want to talk to you. As for your crimes, the police have basically all the evidence. You should understand that the police were able to arrest you. The evidence of your drug trafficking, the secret ledgers and cell phones you left behind, can all find what the police are looking for. So whether you confess or resist, in the end there will only be one result. I won't talk about that, it's none of my business. Let me tell you, have you ever been afraid?"
"Scared? Heh heh, this is a death sentence. As the saying goes, if you walk by the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet. Since I did this, I was hoping to make quick money and enjoy life to the fullest. This outcome is no surprise to me." So, stop your nonsense, you can't fool me!
