Chapter: 4800
But they also knew that according to the law, as long as they couldn't catch the real mastermind behind the scenes, even if she was indeed being manipulated, it would be difficult for her to prove herself and ultimately result in a conviction.
Moreover, these officers had underestimated Ma Lan's actual strength behind her.
They thought: this kind of showy and foolish woman, and an outsider from a foreign country, could never have any strong background in the US.
So they left only two Chinese-American officers to take down statements from Ma Lan while the others ordered coffee, fries, chicken wings, and pizza, and spent the night eating and drinking in the police station's hall.
Everyone was extremely happy at this moment because they had successfully cracked a major smuggling case involving synthetic illegal drugs worth over a million dollars.
They had already reported this incident to the New York City Police Department and the police commissioner himself called to congratulate them, saying to wrap up the paperwork quickly and then report it to the media. When that time comes, they'll send some reporters over for an interview or two.
This was a great opportunity for the airport police station to get some face time.
So everyone here was extremely excited, even though someone had already reached their quitting time, but decided to stay and celebrate with everyone else.

They found one of those officers who had broken Jimmy Wayne's ribs. His name was Jimmy Wayne.
He was holding a big pizza at this moment, saying with a mocking tone: "That Chinese woman is definitely going to get in trouble this time. Once her report is finalized, the New York City Police Department will investigate based on her statement and grab her superiors. By the time they catch up with them, they'll have already escaped to the moon. This group of people has already become experienced offenders, so they won't be able to catch any of them."
Another white police officer laughed and said: "This woman is involved in trafficking five thousand kilograms of illegal substances. The judge will definitely not allow her bail. If she can't catch the mastermind behind it, she'll definitely get a life sentence with no possibility of parole. In that case, this whole life will be over."
One of their colleagues who had accompanied them earlier said to Jimmy Wayne: "Jimmy, you're being too rough again. This woman is already getting on in years. What if you break her several ribs? There's even a chance someone might die."
Jimmy Wayne cursed and said: "That dog-whelped thing claims to be my mom! I didn't even get the chance to beat it out of her, but I'm already controlling myself!"
The person spoke up seriously: "In the future, you need to control yourself more. You know about Minneapolis. In this kind of situation, you should be cautious and considerate. And you need to be careful. If her lawyer finds out, there might be a lawsuit against you."
Jimmy Wayne sneered: "I don't think this woman can do anything. She's just a Chinese person in New York City who can't even get a decent lawyer. If she hires those assigned public defenders, I have a thousand ways to shut them up."
As he spoke, his face lit up with pride: "Let me teach you guys an experience. These kinds of people love to start strong and try to intimidate others from the beginning. But in reality, the more you deal with these people, the more you need to be tough and even use violent means occasionally. Just make sure she knows she's kicked against steel. Next time, if you give her a good face, she'll wag her tail like a little dog!"
Everyone burst out laughing.
At this moment, the door was pushed open by someone, and a middle-aged man with a round face walked in, saying: "Fellow officers, my wife and I just ordered a battle-axe beef at the steakhouse. We haven't even had time to eat yet, but we heard you guys solved a big case and did a great job!"
Everyone saw the director of the division arrive, and each one suddenly became ecstatic.
One person asked, "Director, when are we going to arrange a celebration dinner?"
The director smiled and said, "Wait until the city police department reports to the media and journalists come over to interview after that, then we'll celebrate!"
Everyone immediately burst into cheers. JrNovels.com
