Anjing. A conference room in the ministry headquarters.
Outside the window, the night was dark.
Xu Jinguang rose to his feet to greet the arriving Minister Liu.
There weren't many long-unsolved domestic cold cases with enough influence and public attention to still matter. The November 2nd Serial Case was one of them.
By this year, it had been nearly a decade.
Xu Jinguang had been following it closely, and so, naturally, had Minister Liu.
Now that there was hope of a breakthrough, he had specifically made time to remotely observe the questioning of Yang Guofa.
The video feed was already set up.
On the large screen, a scene from the United States appeared.
It was daytime in the video, inside the hotel where Shen Xin and his team were staying.
Zheng Chengbao was leading the questioning.
Yang Guofa also appeared on camera. He looked at the lens, fidgeting nervously, and timidly asked if he was sitting in the right spot.
"It's fine."
