Liu Jinghui did not use Jiang Yuan, also to protect him.
He was still unclear about the specifics of the case, but in Liu Jinghui's mind, some cases were too dirty, and there was no reason for a promising young technical police officer like Jiang Yuan to be thrown into the fray.
Liu Jinghui still wanted to assess the situation himself first.
Having a rough understanding of Liu Jinghui's thoughts, Jiang Yuan did not insist on going to the coal mine.
He was not omnipotent, and even with crime scene investigation as his specialty, he first needed to determine where the crime scene was. With such a vast coal mine, possibly requiring descent into mining tunnels, the conditions would be challenging, the area extensive, and the current Jiang Yuan would find it difficult to be effective.
In terms of his attributes, Jiang Yuan was still more suited for close combat, engaging in small-scale, meticulous investigative work.
