Jiang Yuan picked out the relatively big cases in Wen Township and cracked four in three days.
This was also how he gradually became familiar with rural cases.
Common cases in rural areas were somewhat different from those in cities, beyond the prevalence of monitoring equipment that tended to locate urban crimes within buildings, the anti-investigation skills of rural residents were distinct from their urban counterparts.
Especially in rural regions with many elderly living alone, the criminals' ability to cover up their crimes was obviously weaker. Yet, with the added factors of time and space, combined with less competent investigators, the struggle often ended in a draw.
The cases Jiang Yuan successively cracked could be explained, upon reflection, as a result of a backlog caused by inadequate response.
