As for why this matter wasn't escalated, but instead fell onto a local criminal investigation team...
After thinking it over a bit, Meng Lang understood the reason behind it.
The person is currently in their hands, and Mr. Hu can't investigate himself, but outwardly, he still needs to make a show of it.
Having the people below make a big fuss about searching is probably just for show for the others to see...
So whether the case is solved or not doesn't really matter at all.
Does the higher-ups really expect a criminal investigation team to search a military base?
Wang Zhao Ping was worrying for nothing...
"Brother Meng, I know you're a righteous person, but no way I'm letting you help for free this time. Out of the $3 million reward, after submitting to the bureau and deducting income tax, there should be about $1 million left!
Once it's all done, consider it your intelligence fee."
Wow! That's generous...
