"Jiang Yuan, dipersilakan."
The ceremonial officer announced the na, watching Jiang Yuan stand up, guided by the staff to the designated confernt position, then signaled him to perform a bowing ceremony.
Jiang Yuan in full dress watched as the Sultan personally pinned the dal on his chest.
In the Datuk confernt ceremony, this is considered an honor. Most of the ti, the Sultan would only hand over the dal and certificate to the honoree, sotis even dispatching senior officials to complete this task.
Jiang Yuan said in Malay, "Thank you, Your Excellency," and then prepared to bow and retreat like the other honorees.
At this mont, the Sultan, facing Jiang Yuan, customarily said, "Syabas (well done)," and then looked into Jiang Yuan’s eyes, saying, "I hope you can make more contributions to Dama."
The last sentence, slightly beyond the template of the confernt ceremony, made Jiang Yuan have no idea, so he naturally replied, "Of course."
"I believe you can find the truth," the Sultan said seriously once more, patting Jiang Yuan’s chest.
Jiang Yuan finally understood, feeling the power of the hand on his chest and the weight of the dal, replied in Malay, "I will."
Only then did the Sultan drop his hand, allowing Jiang Yuan to bow and step back, then returned to his own position.
The ceremonial officer quickly moved on to the next segnt.
anwhile, witnessing this scene, Huang Qiangmin imdiately started signaling crazily with his eyes to Cui Xiaohu and Chu Guanliang beside him.
Chu Guanliang lightly blinked his left eye, indicating "it has co to this," then blinked his right eye "stay calm."
Huang Qiangmin didn’t understand, but expressed comprehension.
Jiang Yuan returned to the queue, holding the conferred docunts and, prompted by the system, opened a blue shimring interface before him.
The title of "Datuk," listed alongside the previously obtained first-class rits, each with a small " " on the right side that could be clicked, then allowing one to choose a skill from the vast list.
Jiang Yuan instantly understood that, in the system’s certification, the title of a Datuk was equivalent to obtaining a "first-class rit," at the very least, the rewards given were the sa. However, a "Datuk" cannot be obtained repeatedly.
Previously, Jiang Yuan still had a first-class rit skill that had not been redeed, mainly because his usual skills were already rich enough, redeeming a universal skill was less useful than saving it for special situations. For instance, in cases like explosions, shootings, and poisonings, Jiang Yuan encountered these very rarely and lacked corresponding skills, but if he really encountered a situation where only these skills could solve the case, the designated skill redemption would co in handy.
And today, with the title of "Datuk" obtained, another skill can be redeed, so there’s no need to reserve two designated skill redemptions so extravagantly.
Jiang Yuan made a choice almost without much thought, selecting "drowning related plankton detection (Level 6)" from the complex tree skill table.
Designated skills are more precise skills; the higher the skill level obtained, the broader the skill, the lower the skill level obtained. On the branch of the "drowning related plankton detection (Level 6)" skill, if he steps to "plankton detection" it is only Level 5, and a more detailed "diatom examination" has Level 7. Although the latter’s Level 7 is very tempting, to speak the truth, Level 7 skills are overkill most of the ti.
Level 7 "diatom detection" is like equipping a tank with a 152mm cannon, undeniably deadly when needed, perhaps even with terrifying effects, but in practice, the 128mm rapid-fire gun is equally terrifying and may be more effective on the battlefield.
For instance, having the super-strong Level 7 "diatom detection" ability, in the daily work of the "Taihe Working Group," might add a super strong blade, and with "temporary 1" skills, sothing extraordinary might happen.
Yet, speaking realistically, Level 7 is already super impressive. Compared to the re "diatom detection" skill, increasing Level 6 "blue-green algae," "green algae," "euglena," "fungi," and other various drowning markers’ detection capabilities clearly provides broader coverage.
Palpitation.
The ceremony did not last too long and soon entered the dia segnt.
Especially after the Sultan and the ceremonial officers exited, the following ti all belonged to the dia.
Not only were there reporters from television stations and print dia, but many self-dia individuals also ca running, holding professional equipnt or just a phone, focusing on one or a few people inside to shoot.
Traditional dia still needed to consider the screen ti and order of each "Datuk," but self-dia people had no such consideration. A group of people almost all aid for Jiang Yuan. So would initially take shots of others, but after a few shots, their caras basically turned to Jiang Yuan.
The scene rapidly turned into a Disney spectacle. A long line began to form in front of Jiang Yuan, and those unwilling to queue or stuck in line, would go to shoot others, yet everyone would ultimately want to queue for Jiang Yuan.
So people were satisfied with just taking photos, while others wanted a group photo or a short interview, Jiang Yuan fulfilled them all.
Having received the title and acquired a skill, letting people take photos did not matter.
The one most worried about mishaps at the scene was originally the police liaison officer Chu Guanliang, who already prepared various statents before coming on stage, planning how to persuade Jiang Yuan.
Yet, seeing Jiang Yuan comply, posing as instructed and taking group photos as requested, he was montarily dumbfounded.
Ni Cha then brought Zhong Renlong over, exclaiming, "Jiang Yuan, the Datuk is really smart."
"Of course," Chu Guanliang replied, then realized it was Ni Cha who wanted to chat, prompting more naturally, "In what way?"
"In China, dia cooperation might not be as needed, where the police powers are still significant. Comparatively, over here, dealing with the dia is truly important; with dia assistance or even just showing up in dia, everything becos more convenient," Ni Cha elaborately stated, "I know Datuk Jiang doesn’t like being interviewed or taking photos, but his willingness today really shows he’s giving his all for the case."
Zhong Renlong quickly translated and added his understanding at the end, "Having good relationships with dia can be half the battle won. Because politicians need dia, they tilt resources towards police with dia connections."
Chu Guanliang nodded repeatedly, "Jiang Yuan truly cares about the case..."
As he spoke, Chu Guanliang saw two councillors walking toward Jiang Yuan together.
Both saw each other, and for a fleeting mont, their steps paused, but in the blink of an eye, they resud their steady steps.
Simultaneously, the aides of the two councillors realized sothing and surged toward their respective councillors, gathering closely behind them to enhance their presence.
The certain self-dia person talking to Jiang Yuan consciously stepped back a step.
"No worries, you all talk first," the first-to-arrive councillor gave a gentlemanly nod, pretending to be humble. Ultimately, he ca to ride the popularity wave, so why would he let the stars of the show leave?
The later-arriving councillor was the sa, deliberately standing behind Jiang Yuan to ensure he appeared in photos as others took them.
The first step in an election is to beco familiar with the public, which is usually quite difficult for most councillors. However, the heat Jiang Yuan brought was unmistakably stronger than an ordinary councillor.
The case of Counselor Stewa’s son shooting Counselor Stewa and then randomly killing passersby to test his nerves was gripping enough on its own, not to ntion the bloody massacre that followed.
Different dia had different angles, potentially spawning many various stories, and each story brought substantial traffic.
After several busy hours, Jiang Yuan finally managed to leave, only to be unsurprisingly blocked at the door.
The person blocking the crowd was a man of about 60 years, dressed extravagantly, coming from a Rolls Royce.
"Kumar, I want him to be responsible for my son’s postmortem," the person stopping shouted to the na of the Dama Police Station chief.
The police chief Kumar joyfully said, "No problem, I will imdiately arrange for Datuk Jiang Yuan to perform an autopsy on your son’s body."
"No autopsy allowed. No autopsy!" The old man from the Rolls Royce, using his cane to forcefully pound the floor, said, "As I said before, I demand a comprehensive investigation, but only a non-invasive autopsy can be conducted."
The so-called non-invasive autopsy, also known as non-intrusive body examination, refers to examining the body without surgical dissection but using so dical instrunts instead. This is necessary for many religious beliefs.
Especially in many cases of unnatural death, because of the uncertainty of a homicide occurring, families demanding non-invasive autopsies pose a particular challenge.
The police chief Kumar opposed further, "Non-invasive autopsies, we have already done, without appropriate conclusions. We truly lack a conventional autopsy now!"
"But Jiang Yuan can do it, right, Datuk?" The old man from the Rolls Royce approached Jiang Yuan, looking up at him, said, "The Sultan stated you have agreed!"
