Chen Guodong quickly understood what Jiang Chuan said. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Jiang Chuan. I will take care of this matter immediately and give you an explanation soon."

As he spoke, Chen Guodong gave Deputy Commander Wu a look. Deputy Commander Wu nodded in understanding, stood up and walked to the door.

Jiang Chuan was very satisfied with Chen Guodong's cooperative attitude, so the subsequent conversation between the two went more smoothly.

At the same time, a meeting was being held in the Ministry of Justice to discuss the next step, and Liu Zhijun suddenly received news about the action Jiang Chuan was going to take.

Director Feng asked him and Xu Jiajia to go to the office immediately.

Liu Zhijun was very confused about this, but he quickly rushed to the director's office with Xu Jiajia.

As soon as they entered the office, they saw that Director Feng had just hung up the phone. Liu Zhijun asked in confusion, "What's the matter, Director?"

Director Feng's expression was slightly strange. After his eyes wandered between the two of them, he slowly spoke: "Regarding Jiang Chuan's case, what new progress have you made?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhijun immediately nodded and replied, "Director, we have just come up with a new plan to capture him. We will not let Jiang Chuan escape this time."

However, as soon as Liu Zhijun finished speaking, Director Feng angrily slammed his palm on the table, widened his eyes and shouted: "What are you still arresting! You are the person in charge, and you have been following up from beginning to end. I also specially transferred Consultant Xu to assist you, but what did you find out? Who is Jiang Chuan, have you figured it out?"

Liu Zhijun was stunned for a moment. Everyone in the Criminal Division knew that Jiang Chuan was an arms dealer. What was there to doubt? He asked in confusion: "Director, what happened? What did Jiang Chuan do again?"

Director Feng said angrily: "Vice Commander Wu of the military region just called and said that Jiang Chuan is now in Commander Chen's office. Moreover, Jiang Chuan's identity has been confirmed. He is not an arms dealer at all, but the owner of a legal military factory. He also has a lot of advanced technology in his hands. The military is discussing cooperation with him."

"What?" Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia exclaimed in unison, they were shocked.

The criminal suspect who we have been following is now negotiating cooperation with the military. How is this possible?

Liu Zhijun said excitedly: "Director, this is impossible, this must be a mistake, this is another conspiracy by Jiang Chuan!"

Because this concerns his reputation. If what Director Feng said is true, it means that he has been leading the serious crime team on a detour during this period of time.

Director Feng obviously lost his patience, staring at Liu Zhijun and shouting, "You kid! Are you still so stubborn at this time? Deputy Commander Wu called me personally, how could this be false? They said that in order to verify Jiang Chuan's identity, they even took him to the Research Bureau for academic discussions with experts. All experts confirmed that there is no doubt that Jiang Chuan has mastered the core technology. Moreover, Jiang Chuan's military factory in Dashang has complete procedures. All the evidence is in front of you. What else do you want to prove?"

Liu Zhijun stood there in a daze, speechless.

Xu Jiajia's mind was full of thoughts. When she suddenly learned that Jiang Chuan was not a criminal, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart.

She had always regarded Jiang Chuan as her rival, but found out that everything was wrong.

However, she did not feel as unwilling as Liu Zhijun. Instead, she felt relieved, and she herself could not explain the reason.

Looking at the two silent people, Director Feng sighed and said, "When you two come back, you should deal with your affairs behind closed doors. The most urgent thing now is that you should go to the military district immediately and apologize to Jiang Chuan in person. This is what Deputy Commander Wu said, and it is the only condition for Jiang Chuan to cooperate with the military."

"What!" Liu Zhijun stood there in a daze as if struck by lightning. He had never thought that one day he would have to bow to Jiang Chuan.

In Liu Zhijun's mind, Jiang Chuan was a criminal and he had already determined the matter.

During this period of time, he has been thinking hard, putting all his attention on Jiang Chuan, thinking of a good way to catch him.

But now Director Feng suddenly told him that everything was wrong and that he and the entire serious crime team had caused a huge misunderstanding.

Jiang Chuan is not a criminal, but a talent valued by the country, and he needs to go and apologize sincerely.

For a moment, Liu Zhijun was unable to understand so much information.

But he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart. Could this not be the case?
He tried to persuade Director Feng: "Director, is this a mistake? There must be something wrong. Jiang Chuan is a genius criminal. Maybe this is another conspiracy of his?"

Liu Zhijun knew how ridiculous what he said was, but he just desperately hoped that Director Feng would retract his decision.

Obviously, Director Feng also understood Liu Zhijun's feelings, but this matter was ordered by the military itself, and it was stated that this was Jiang Chuan's only request.

Although Director Feng didn't know why the military attached so much importance to Jiang Chuan, he had to issue such an order when it came to national affairs.

He said to Liu Zhijun earnestly, "Zhijun, I know how much you have thought about Jiang Chuan. Ever since the fraudster received the gun, you have been following up on this case, taking every step carefully. But now the result is like this, this matter was wrong from the beginning. Go to the military region now and apologize to Jiang Chuan, don't let your temper ruin the big thing. The fact that the military chief called in person is enough to prove that the cooperation matter involved by Jiang Chuan must be no small matter. It cannot be lost in our hands, understand?"

At this time, Director Feng no longer had the airs of a leader, and was more like an elder teaching a younger generation.

Finally, after a moment of silence, Liu Zhijun nodded with difficulty.

Although he was unwilling, he was by no means stupid.

As Director Feng said, the military's attitude speaks for itself.

If this matter only concerned himself, given Liu Zhijun's temper, he would never give in.

But what is at stake now is not just him, but the entire Judicial Department. Liu Zhijun will not make such a rash choice.

Watching Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia leave the office without saying a word, Director Feng sighed deeply.

Because even he didn't expect why things would develop to this point today.

What he was more curious about was who this Jiang Chuan was?

After leaving the office, Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia did not return to the office, but drove directly to the military region.

Along the way, both of them felt extremely heavy-hearted.

Especially for Liu Zhijun, he had to apologize to his former opponent, which was undoubtedly an unprecedented experience for him.

Looking at the entire Criminal Division, I’m afraid no police officer has ever experienced such a thing.

Finally, Xu Jiajia took the lead in breaking the heavy atmosphere: "Team Leader Liu, I know this matter is not so easy to accept. But things have come to this point, we must first follow the instructions from above."

Liu Zhijun pursed his lips, then sighed deeply and said, "Advisor Xu, what I care most about is why this matter has developed like this. It's fine to apologize to Jiang Chuan, but it's so unclear... I really can't swallow this. But of course I also know that Director Feng must be in a difficult situation, so let's just complete the task."

Xu Jiajia nodded slightly and didn't say anything more.

In such a silent and heavy atmosphere, the two finally arrived at the Yun City Military District.

Deputy Commander Wu had already sent soldiers to wait here. After receiving Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia, he quickly took them to the commander's office. In fact, this was the first time Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia came to the Yunshi Military Region.

In principle, the military and the Criminal Division are two completely independent divisions, so there is rarely any interaction between the two sides.

Especially Liu Zhijun, he was just the leader of the serious crime team, and there was no need for him to have any contact with the military.

But now, because of Jiang Chuan, the two were not only called directly to the military region, but they could even go directly to the commander's office.

Liu Zhijun smiled bitterly in his heart.

As they arrived at the office door, the soldier opened it.

Zhijun and Xu Jiajia immediately spotted Jiang Chuan sitting opposite Chen Guodong.

This surprised the two of them. As the commander of an army, not only did he allow Jiang Chuan to be on an equal footing with him, but Jiang Chuan even seemed very casual about it.

"You are here, come in."

There was no emotion in Chen Guodong's voice. After all, he didn't know much about this kind of person.

If it weren’t for Jiang Chuan, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have any contact in this life.

Things have come to this point, Liu Zhijun gritted his teeth and entered the office first.

But his eyes were always fixed on Jiang Chuan.

Soon, Deputy Commander Wu also came to the office with a stack of documents.

After seeing Liu Zhijun, he said, "As expected of the Chief Justice, you are so quick. You guys arrived not long after I made the call."

After the two saluted Chen Guodong and Deputy Commander Wu respectively, Liu Zhijun spoke up, "Deputy Commander Wu, Director Feng called us over as soon as possible. After explaining the situation, we didn't dare to delay and rushed over as soon as possible."

Liu Zhijun was a man of meticulous mind. Even though he felt unwilling in his heart, he remained precise in his words and even subtly complimented Director Feng.

Deputy Commander Wu nodded, then tapped the pile of documents on the table and said slowly: "I understand what you are thinking. Let's take a look at these materials first."

Full of doubts, Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia approached the pile of documents, each picked up a few copies and looked at them carefully. Soon, looks of surprise appeared on their faces.

Deputy Commander Wu took in their reactions and then spoke slowly, "These materials are enough to prove Jiang Chuan's legal identity. Your suspicion of him from the beginning was wrong. We have verified that Jiang Chuan has a legal military factory in Guyue Country and Dashang Country, and various data show that he has never engaged in illegal trafficking. You have been investigating for so long, and you may not be satisfied with such a result, but Commander Chen specifically instructed that there must be solid evidence. Don't think that I called you here to bully you. You are really mistaken."

A barely perceptible smile appeared on the corner of Chen Guodong's mouth. He did not give such instructions to Deputy Commander Wu. This information was entirely Deputy Commander Wu's personal decision.

However, such an explanation can indeed prevent the military and the Ministry of Justice from being affected unnecessary influence, and can also cleverly resolve the current embarrassing situation.

Jiang Chuan remained silent and looked at Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia calmly.

As they flipped through the documents, the expressions on their faces gradually changed.

These materials undoubtedly confirmed Jiang Chuan's identity, and also told Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia that the Criminal Division had gone in the wrong direction from the very beginning.

"Now you understand, I didn't mean to embarrass you..." Deputy Commander Wu said meaningfully, "This is the relevant certificate of Jiangchuan Factory, there is no problem. These are also enough to prove that he is not an arms dealer, so the Criminal Division, you should close the case as soon as possible."

He looked at Liu Zhijun meaningfully, and at the same time pointed at Jiang Chuan behind him implicitly, his intention was self-evident.

Liu Zhijun naturally understood the meaning. Although he felt uncomfortable, he also knew that things had come to this point and he had no choice.

He was full of doubts, but he knew that now was not the time to discuss them.

"Jiangchuan..."

Liu Zhijun squeezed out these two words with great difficulty. He looked at Jiang Chuan, clenched his teeth, and seemed to have exhausted all his strength to utter a complete sentence: "I'm sorry... We made a mistake..."

Liu Zhijun's mind seemed to be filled with a roaring sound, and he couldn't even hear what he had just said.

Until now, he is unwilling to accept such an outcome.

But in the dark, many things have changed.

Jiang Chuan finally smiled. He looked at Liu Zhijun meaningfully and said, "Team Leader Liu, I hope you will investigate things thoroughly before taking action in the future. Otherwise, you may get into big trouble."

Liu Zhijun did not respond, and did not even look into Jiang Chuan's eyes.

At this moment, he had complicated thoughts and just wanted to end it all as soon as possible.

Xu Jiajia stood behind Liu Zhijun, looking at Jiang Chuan curiously.

Once again, Jiang Chuan gave her an unexpected surprise.

But she was a little confused. Why did he not say a word when he had every opportunity to explain the fact that he was wronged during the siege on Jiang Chuan?

However, what she didn't know was that Jiang Chuan didn't care at all whether the Ministry of Justice would withdraw its suspicion of him.

If it wasn't for the convenience of future cooperation with the military, Jiang Chuan wouldn't mind the Criminal Division keeping an eye on him.

"Okay... thank you for your hard work..." Chen Guodong finally spoke, and the underlying meaning of his words was very clear.

Liu Zhijun and Xu Jiajia saluted again and left the office.

Liu Zhijun's face was gloomy, and it was obvious that the experience just now made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Team Leader Liu, this matter..." Xu Jiajia wanted to comfort him, but was interrupted by Liu Zhijun: "I'm fine, isn't it just an apology? Wrong is wrong. Although I am unwilling, the Criminal Division must speak according to the evidence. Since he is innocent, there is no need to go all the way to the end."

Liu Zhijun was a sensible man. Although the development of things was beyond his expectations, he was able to accept this fact quickly.

"But I still can't figure out why the military wants to cooperate with Jiang Chuan. How capable is Jiang Chuan?"

He whispered doubtfully, and his words hit the nail on the head with the doubts in Xu Jiajia's heart. (End of this chapter)
