Chapter 143 Anti-Drug Squad

Before coming to the office, the two had already handed over the drug dealer, the drugs, and the cell phone videos to the anti-drug team.

However, before he could even take a statement, Jin Ping'an rushed to the office with a messenger.

Anyway, he's familiar with the anti-drug squad, so the statements can be taken later, but the arrests can't wait.

Once we've taken over the warehouse and caught the tattooed man, we can record all of these things together.

"Hey kid, did I let you in?"

A middle-aged man with a bald head, a face full of scars, and a fierce demeanor walked over and squeezed Jin Ping'an's shoulder hard: "Speak, what are you doing here so late at night? If it's about last time, then don't mention it."

This man is Captain Wu of the anti-drug squad, Wu Ke.

He and Jin Pingan were old acquaintances. Previously, through information provided by Jin Pingan, the anti-drug team intercepted two batches of contraband, totaling more than ten kilograms.

If these two batches of methamphetamine enter Qianhua City, one can imagine what kind of punishment he, as the captain of the anti-drug team, will ultimately receive.

With Jin Ping'an's intelligence, not only was the problem nipped in the bud, but it also brought him considerable fame and awards, for which he was deeply indebted.

That's why Wu Ke was able to tolerate Jin Ping'an repeatedly visiting the anti-drug squad whenever he had nothing to do.

If it were anyone else, they would have been locked up and tortured by him long ago.

The oppressive pain in his shoulder contorted Jin Ping'an's face as he struggled to break free from Wu Ke's large hand.

This guy never holds back when he hits someone. Jin Ping'an's head, which was still a bit groggy, suddenly became much more alert after being stimulated by the pain.

Jin Pingan rubbed his shoulder: "I found another drug den and came to tell you."

"A drug den... Is it for real this time?"

Wu Ke's impatient face showed a hint of doubt.

Jin Ping'an, that kid, came to him twice this month, claiming to have special intelligence, and both times he asked him to help investigate a kidnapping case.

Wu Ke was speechless. "You're a consultant for the criminal investigation team, asking our anti-drug team to investigate a kidnapping case? Isn't this like a cat asking a dog to catch a mouse?"
Even if I wanted to help you, you can't even come up with a legitimate reason, so how can I get involved?

Wu Ke, who also worked in Qianhua City, could roughly guess what had happened there, but they were a narcotics squad and could not interfere in other departments' cases without a legitimate reason; that was the rule.

If people could interfere with the work of other departments at will, public order would have been in chaos long ago.
"Really? I brought all the offline retailers with me, how could it be fake?"

Jin Pingan pointed to the door: "The person is still sleeping outside right now. To prevent himself from becoming overweight, he swallowed some of the pills."

Before the sleeping pills took effect, he was somewhat disoriented. He readily revealed who he got his goods from when asked casually, and even mentioned a long-time customer.

"What's the name of the supplier you mentioned?"

Wu Ke's expression gradually turned serious upon hearing this. Coupled with his fierce face, it gave the impression that he would pull out a machete and attack someone at any moment.

Jin Ping'an said somewhat guiltily, "Uh... he didn't know him either, he just gave me the location..."

There's no sound during the backtracking process, so who knows what the previous player's name was?

So Jin Ping'an avoided the main point and went to the point: "The location is Pan'an Community on Zhenxing Road, No. 501. It is estimated that there should be quite a lot of things, at least two or three pieces of white flour."

"I see."

Wu Ke returned to his desk and picked up the landline: "Are the people in 101, 102, and 103 asleep? If they're not, get them ready to assemble immediately, there's an emergency!"

Wu Ke had thought that Jin Ping'an was just making excuses to ask for his help this time, but now it seemed that he was serious this time.

The anti-drug squad was still brightly lit at night; it wasn't lights out yet.

The Asian Anti-Drug Squad is essentially a semi-military force, employing full military-style management. The squad includes facilities such as a canteen, dormitories, bathhouse, gym, training grounds, and armory.

It covers an area roughly the size of a school, equivalent to a military camp.

The members of the anti-drug squad have all their needs met within the squad itself.

Normally they are a narcotics squad, but in case of an emergency, they can also transform into a regular army to maintain order.

It is precisely this military nature that completely distinguishes it from other public sectors, making it impossible for local powers to interfere.

For example, interfering in the affairs of the anti-narcotics team is like evading taxes in a certain beautiful country.

If you dare to touch it, even the King of Heaven can't save you.

After giving the order, Wu Ke wanted Jin Ping'an and the messenger to go to the lounge to wait for the results, but Jin Ping'an refused: "I want to go too!"

Wu Ke slapped him onto the sofa: "Nonsense! Do you think this is the criminal investigation team arresting ordinary murderers? They're all thugs with guns and grenades!"

What if something happens to Jin Ping'an, that little brat, if we involve him in the arrest operation? How will we explain it? Whose responsibility will it be?

But Jin Ping'an was determined to participate in the operation: "I won't go to the scene to cause you any trouble. I'll just sit in the car and wait for you to get out. After all, I'm an advisor to the criminal investigation team. Don't I even have the right to participate in providing information?"

Appointing a barely-adult brat as a consultant for the criminal investigation team—Shi Hongfang must have been out of his mind!

Wu Ke rubbed his bald head, looking very troubled: "Tell me, what exactly do you want me to do? If you still want me to get involved in the kidnapping case, let me tell you, it's impossible."

The two times when the information about methamphetamine was mentioned before, Jin Ping'an mentioned participating in the operation. This time, he unexpectedly wanted to participate in the arrest operation, which clearly indicates that he has ulterior motives.

"I've found the kidnapper!"

Jin Ping'an's face lit up with joy when he saw Wu Ke finally agree: "He bought a lot of controlled psychotropic drugs from drug dealers. I hope you can detain him in the anti-drug team on charges of illegally storing and using prohibited drugs, and not transfer him to the criminal investigation team for the time being!"

Wu Ke paused slightly, somewhat astonished.

On the one hand, he didn't expect that Jin Ping'an would actually find the criminal in a month without the help of the criminal police team.

On the other hand, they were alarmed by the complexity within the criminal investigation team.

"No problem, I can take the person into custody for you, but you don't need to participate in the arrest operation, understand?"

Wu Ke put on his gear and planned to go to the parking lot to meet up.

"Don't worry, I'll stay in the car and definitely won't get out to join the fun. I'll just help give directions."

Jin Ping'an quickly assured everyone that he would not cause any trouble. He insisted on going along only because he was a little worried that it wouldn't be good if the anti-drug team found nothing at the tattooed man's residence and chose to call it a day.

That rented room was clearly just a temporary place to stay, and nobody knew whether he was actually home or not.

It's not unreasonable for me to help them dismantle a hideout and seize a bunch of contraband, and then spend a night in their place.

"As long as he doesn't cause trouble at the scene... What's your relationship with this guy that he's coming along too?" Wu Ke turned the conversation to the messenger.

From the moment he entered, the messenger stood silently to the side. Since he didn't speak, Wu Ke didn't bother to ask.

However, now that Jin Ping'an is going to participate in the arrest operation, the messenger's fate is in question.

Any operation by the anti-narcotics team is off-limits to outsiders. Even when cooperating with other departments, the attitude is always, "You only need to provide intelligence."

In terms of manpower, the total number of traffic police, criminal police, and local police officers in Qianhua City combined is less than that of the anti-drug team, so there is no need for support at all.

Furthermore, the laws of the Asian Union stipulate that the anti-narcotics team can exercise some of the powers of other departments when conducting operations.

This eliminates the need for cooperation from other departments.
