That's why he had this idea.

The next day!

When Lin Zhengyi went to work, Chen Dao immediately called him over.

"Inspector Chen, is my case settled?" Lin Zhengyi asked with a smile as soon as he entered the room.

"You're still as smart as ever!"

After saying that with a smile, Chen Dao changed the subject and said, "Just last night, after a meeting, the higher-ups decided to put you in charge of the Ferrari case!"

"Once you successfully obtain the criminal evidence against the conman Ferrari, you will have passed the chief inspector's promotion test!"

"However, given that you will be promoted to Chief Inspector after this mission is completed, and once you do become Chief Inspector, you will be the youngest Chief Inspector in Hong Kong's history, which will definitely attract a lot of media reporters to come and interview you."

"If we conceal the process of how you solved the case, the media reporters might write that you got the position through personal connections or money. Based on this, the higher-ups decided to fully disclose the process of solving the case after you solved it."

"Under this premise, the higher-ups require you to handle this case cleanly and openly. This way, we can avoid the media reporters seizing on minor details after the case is made public, thus tarnishing our reputation as police officers. Do you understand?"

Clean and spotless?

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhengyi immediately understood.

The case must be handled cleanly and transparently; we cannot use any underhanded methods to deal with it.

Lin Zhengyi could have simply stormed over, killed Ferrari and his accomplices, and then slowly searched for evidence in Ferrari's villa. Alternatively, he could have used the lock-picking and thieving abilities brought by the master thief to steal the evidence directly, or captured Ferrari's men and used hypnosis to obtain evidence, etc.

These can resolve the issues surrounding the Ferrari case.

But now, none of that works.

He could only use some relatively aboveboard methods to solve the case.

This significantly increases the difficulty of solving the case.

"I see!"

But Lin Zhengyi still gave the same answer.

if not?

You can't just say, "There's nothing I can do!"

Then the opportunity to be promoted again, which was hard-won this time, will be completely lost.

Who knows when we'll get another chance?

They might have to wait until they have enough seniority before they can be promoted again.

That would be at least several years later.

This is something Lin Zhengyi absolutely cannot accept.

just

Then again.

It is indeed very difficult to obtain evidence through legitimate and aboveboard means!

For a moment, Lin Zhengyi also had a headache.

In the past, he always relied on his skills to solve cases.

And these skills...

I understand!

It has absolutely nothing to do with being aboveboard or honorable!

"How?"

Lin Zhengyi thought to himself.

This time!

Seeing Lin Zhengyi's troubled expression, Chen Dao roughly understood his predicament.

In this day and age, almost no police officer can handle and solve cases in a completely aboveboard manner.

Without sufficient surveillance and technology, such as a fingerprint database containing most people's fingerprints or a DNA database for comparison, it is extremely difficult to solve a case using normal methods.

Therefore, these days, most police officers use some tricks when handling cases.

For example, what do you do if you know someone is a murderer but have no evidence?

Generally, the breakthrough is made by targeting the suspect's family and friends, especially children and women among them, who tend to have lower psychological resilience. Even if the suspect has given prior instructions, they often reveal the truth or tell things that can be used as evidence when threatened.

But the question is, is intimidating children and women a normal tactic?

It definitely doesn’t count!

Moreover, this is only the most basic method; there are even more ruthless and vicious methods.

"I know this is a bit difficult, but this difficulty is part of your assessment. If you can't even overcome this difficulty, then there's nothing I can do!" Chen Dao said solemnly.

“I understand!” Lin Zhengyi took a deep breath and replied.

"By the way, the higher-ups have also assigned you two assistants this time. One is Liang Kuan, who is very capable, and the other is Liu Yida, nicknamed the Thousand-Faced Man, who is extremely skilled in disguise and makeup. You can use them as appropriate!" Chen Dao continued.

Chapter 317 One man's plan is short, two men's plans are long

Liang Kuan?

A man with a thousand faces?

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhengyi immediately recognized the two people: the protagonist of "King of Gamblers" and the protagonist's superior.

These two are quite capable, they're just a bit unlucky.

In particular, Liang Kuan often encounters various unexpected situations while handling cases.

This can lead to deviations in the investigation process and often leaves him in a sorry state. However, most of the time, Liang Kuan manages to solve the case successfully thanks to his exceptional personal abilities.

You could say he's a budget version of Stephen Chow!

"Then where should we look for them?" Lin Zhengyi asked.

"They'll be coming to find you soon!" Chen Dao said.

"Row!"

Lin Zhengyi nodded and then said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now!"

"Ok!"

Chen Dao waved his hand.

immediately!

After bowing, Lin Zhengyi left.

-

Back to the office.

Lin Zhengyi hadn't even settled in when he heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!'

Lin Zhengyi said.

Later!

A man and a woman walked in.

The man looks exactly like Nick Cheung, and the woman looks very similar to Sister Pomegranate.

This time!

After the two men bowed, the man said, "Chief Liang Kuan of the Second Squad of the Major Crimes Unit of the Regional Headquarters is reporting to you."

"Inspector Liu Yida of the Second Squad of the Major Crimes Unit of the General District reporting to you!" the woman reported in turn.

Looking at Nick Cheung, Lin Zhengyi didn't react much, but looking at Liu Yida, Lin Zhengyi asked with interest, "Disguise?"

"As expected of Inspector Lin, he recognized me at a glance!"

After saying something with a fawning smile, Liu Yida put his hand next to his face and then forcefully peeled it off.

Suddenly!

A face that was both lewd and somewhat fake appeared before Lin Zhengyi.

He then continued obsequiously, "I came here in disguise to demonstrate my abilities, but I didn't expect Inspector Lin to see through me so easily. Inspector Lin truly deserves to be called a rising star in our police force!"

As for Lin Zhengyi, not only is he currently one level above me, but Lin Zhengyi's future prospects are also clearly limitless.

Under these circumstances, Liu Yida naturally focused on ingratiating himself with Lin Zhengyi.

Once you get along well with Lin Zhengyi, Lin Zhengyi might be able to help you a little in your career in the future!

Lin Zhengyi didn't care about Liu Yida's obsequious attitude.

Liu Yida's obsequious attitude made him seem like a useless, treacherous official who only knew how to flatter and fawn, but Lin Zhengyi knew that the other party's disguise skills alone were already very useful.

Even someone like Lin Zhengyi, who possessed the Thousand-Faced Demon skill, almost failed to spot the flaw in the other party's disguise at first glance.

He could tell the other person's true identity by observing subtle details such as body shape and feet, which are usually different between men and women.

It can be said!

This disguise technique is only slightly inferior to the one brought by the Thousand-Faced Demon.

With just this one skill, even if the other party is useless in other aspects, there would be no problem for them to be promoted to senior inspector or chief inspector in the future.

no way!

This move is absolutely brilliant when it comes to undercover work.

"Your disguise skills are unparalleled in the entire police force. With this level of skill, you're more than capable of fathering a senior inspector or even a chief inspector in the future!" Lin Zhengyi said with a smile.

"Thank you for your praise, Sir Xie Lin!" Liu Yida smiled modestly.

"All right!"
