Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 747 is here! The Conan Book!

Jiang Hai sipped the marrow from the bone marrow through a straw, his words muffled as he said, "Brother Chuan, I'm getting a little tired of playing around here. When are we leaving for Myanmar? Didn't we agree to come here to do research on anti-fraud? My 'Newcomer King of the Discipline' title depends entirely on this."

As expected, Chen Chuan finished eating first, slammed down his large bowl, wiped his mouth, and laughed, "There's no time like the present, let's do it today! Let's buy tickets and set off right now!"

As he spoke, he patted his chest, then pointed at Jiang Hai and declared with absolute certainty, "Xiao Hai, you're the rookie king of this year's police academy, I said it!"

Jiang Hai gave a small cheer, then lowered his head again to continue gnawing on the bone.

Chen Shu was deeply moved, recalling when he met Jiang Hai, who was still a high school student, and how precocious Jiang Hai was.

He carried a huge canvas backpack to and from school, wandering around alone with a grumpy face, as if the whole world owed him something.

Now that he's entered the police academy, he has a stable job in the future and has also achieved his life goals. At this point, Jiang Hai seems to have become like a big boy.

Of course, it could also be about recognizing her older sister Yan Chenxi, or even reconciling with herself from her broken family background.

Then, recalling that Jiang Hai had accompanied him to the front lines of the anti-X operation in southern Xinjiang, they had fought side by side, gone through thick and thin together. Looking at Jiang Hai, who was gnawing on a bone, Chen Shu felt as if he were looking at his own younger brother.

However, having said all that, Chen Shu naturally knew what they were thinking. They just wanted to subtly get him to go to Myanmar.
Chen Shu tapped the table and said, "You guys, stop with the formalities. I won't go to Myanmar, and I believe Zhang Yang won't either. Besides, getting a visa on short notice is a problem. Do we have to fly back to Dongzhou to submit a report?"

In China, police officers routinely hand over their passports to their units for safekeeping. When traveling abroad, in addition to obtaining approval from the Entry-Exit Administration Bureau like ordinary citizens, they also need to submit a report to their superiors within their units.

Generally speaking, you can go anywhere except Taiwan, but you still need to follow the procedures.

Chen Chuan smiled slightly, shaking his slender index finger proudly, "You don't need to worry about the visa. It will be processed in the next few days, and if nothing unexpected happens, we will receive the passports by express delivery the day after tomorrow."

Chen Shu was both amused and exasperated, knowing that this young master had once again used his financial power.

To be honest, he was also a little curious about how they managed to get his passport out of the locker at work.

"Ah, wait a minute! Brother Chuan, I haven't applied for a visa yet, can I still go?" Jiang Hai suddenly raised his head, a few bits of meat still stuck to his lips.

Chen Chuan pointed at Chen Shu beside him and laughed heartily: "We don't follow the usual path!"

This alludes to an incident a year ago when Chen Shu, along with Chen Chuan, Xiao Qiang, Zhu Chaoran, and others, traversed deep mountains and forests to rescue Zhang Yang, who was trapped in Myanmar.

If it weren't for the official anti-fraud investigation application issued by Zhang Xuming, the executive deputy director of the Zhengming branch, and the top-down instruction from Lao Zhu, the executive director of the Donghai Provincial Department, this matter might have been treated as illegal border crossing, which would have been a criminal offense.

Chen Shu tapped Chen Chuan's finger with his chopsticks, laughing and scolding, "Nonsense! We're on a trip to see the beautiful landscapes of our country. Why are you two bringing up those backwaters? I'm telling you now, if you want to go, go yourselves. I'd like to stay here and enjoy some more mutton soup. That's enough for now, let's eat!"

Chen Chuan raised an eyebrow at Chen Shu, revealing a knowing smile, everything unspoken.

Chen Chuan figured that given Chen Shu's reserved yet passionate personality, if something really happened to Zhang Yang, he would definitely have to run out again. Better to run sooner rather than later; in any case, Chen Chuan decided to get the preparations done first, and deal with the rest later.

He was teasing Jiang Hai earlier, but in reality, after making a phone call to Director Ma of the Dongzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau's Exit-Entry Administration Division yesterday, Chen Chuan sent over the ID information of all four of them.

The only difference is that the person is not in Dongzhou; the procedures are already proceeding as scheduled.

After finishing their mutton meal, the three chatted and laughed as they returned to the hotel and swiped their cards to enter the elevator.

The elevator went up quite quickly, and we arrived at our floor in no time.

As soon as the group stepped out of the elevator, a sharp scream came from the room at the end of the corridor, breaking the peaceful atmosphere of the morning.

Judging from the sound, the person involved was clearly terrified, so Chen Shu rushed over without hesitation.

Chen Chuan's spirits lifted, and he turned to give Jiang Hai, who was still standing by and hadn't reacted yet, a wink: See, Conan's physique has kicked in! Chen Shu can run to the ends of the earth and still be caught up with!
Chen Chuan grabbed Jiang Hai's arm and ran after him.

At this moment, a cleaning truck used by the hotel to clean the rooms was parked at the door of the room. Inside the room, a hotel cleaning lady in a white uniform was slumped on the floor, one hand tightly gripping the corner of the bed sheet, the other hand trembling as she pointed to the toilet, mumbling incoherently.

Chen Shu took a few steps into the room and looked back in the direction the cleaning lady was pointing. He saw a woman wearing a hotel bathrobe hanging from the glass door frame of the toilet, her neck tied with a thick rope. There were several vomit-filled spots on her bathrobe and on the toilet floor that emitted a foul odor.

A thin cord for hanging a curtain was carelessly tossed on the floor, and the curtain to cover the bathtub was haphazardly stuffed under the empty countertop of the sink.

Upon checking his breath and touching his neck, they found he had been dead for some time.

Sniffing the air, Chen Shu sensed the strong smell of alcohol in the room and wondered if someone might be drinking to commit suicide.

Without much thought, Chen Shu wrapped one arm around the deceased's thigh and supported the body's back with the other. With a push of his right shoulder, he steadily pulled the body out of the noose and placed it on the toilet floor.

"Brother Shu, aren't crime scenes supposed to be protected? Won't putting the person down like this disturb the scene?" Upon discovering that someone was dead inside, Jiang Hai, the youngest person present, was eager to try. He tiptoed in from outside the corridor, showing no fear whatsoever.

"Dead?" Chen Chuan grabbed Jiang Hai, who almost lost his balance and fell into the room, and craned his neck to peer inside. "A girl? How old? Is she pretty?"

"Get out! Go call 110 and 120!" Chen Shu glared at the other person, then turned and helped the cleaning lady who was sitting on the ground up and out of the room.

The cleaning lady was completely weak, her eyes wide open as she looked around blankly, like a fish pulled from the water. She bounced a few times and then began to tremble violently, clearly terrified.

Chen Shu helped him up and placed him against the wall in the corridor.
