The senior superintendent of Saraburi immediately thought of the way the china shop would connect the smuggling gang to the lair based on Liu Wei's "transit station" statement.

Although it is very likely that the smuggling gang is hiding in the mountains, one thing is certain: there must be a convenient way to their lair to reach the transit station in the town of Batongchai, which is the porcelain and lighting shop they are searching in front of them.

Judging from the characteristics of the smuggling gangs, which have always acted efficiently and quickly, it is not difficult to find out that their lair may be located in a certain mountain forest within the Batongchai range.

The senior superintendent turned to the officer and said, "Go to the Patongchai Road Authority and check all the rural roads that connect the market town to the Kamphaeng Mountains!"

Liu Wei smiled slightly, it seems that the senior superintendent is also a person with strong logical reasoning ability.

The senior superintendent walked up to Liu Wei and smiled: "Liu Wei, thank you for the clues you gave us!"

Liu Wei looked inside the porcelain shop, "Can I go in and have a look?"

"Yes!" The senior superintendent didn't stop Liu Wei, he was wondering if Liu Wei had found something tricky?

Liu Wei walked into the porcelain shop and flipped through the porcelain that had not yet been sold in the store, he smiled, and sure enough, it was the same as he had guessed.

A very common modus operandi.

The senior superintendent smiled when he saw Liu Wei and wondered, "What did you find?"

Liu Wei held a vase more than one meter high in his hand and beckoned to the senior superintendent, "Come and have a look!"

The senior superintendent walked up and took a closer look at the vase that Liu Wei was holding, and the results of their previous search were similar, and nothing was found.

The senior superintendent looked at Liu Wei with a puzzled expression, and Liu Wei smiled: "Don't you understand? Most of the porcelain sold in this shop is large porcelain, and there are very few household porcelains such as bowls, plates, pots, etc., can you estimate the height of these porcelains to fit ivory?"

The senior superintendent's eyes widened and it dawned on him.

When a smuggling gang commits a crime, it will certainly not be stupid enough to transport ivory out, and the police and customs will know it as soon as they investigate.

They're going to be looking for something to pack the ivory.

The large-capacity porcelain in the porcelain shop meets this condition, and it is also a transit point for smuggling gangs, which means that the real business of the porcelain shop is to pack smuggled goods.

In the eyes of the surrounding residents, this is also a seller of porcelain and lighting, presumably the sale of lighting is used to better confuse the surrounding residents, if the people in the market town have lighting needs, they can come here to buy, so that they can continue to operate for a long time, even if the porcelain business is not good in the eyes of outsiders, no one doubts the real intention of this store to open here.

Liu Wei squatted down and looked at the vase in front of him, and shook his head, "China has been a big producer of porcelain since ancient times, and these porcelains in front of me are just a blank in China at best.

But if the rough porcelain is used as a tool for smuggling crimes, then the operating costs of the smuggling gang will be lower, and the profits they will get will be higher.

The greed of the smuggling gang betrayed them, and the ivory and low-cost tools seized last night can prove that the smuggling gang has some conflict of interest with the forces behind them!"

After listening to Liu Wei's analysis, the senior superintendent immediately went out to make a phone call.

The call was made to the chief inspector of the Bangkok Police in charge of the case.

He mentioned the idea of hiding ivory in porcelain on the phone, and reminded the Bangkok police and customs to focus on importing and exporting porcelain, especially coarsely fired porcelain, when inspecting imported and exported goods.

After finishing the phone, the senior superintendent walked up to Liu Wei and thanked him sincerely: "Liu Wei, thank you so much, you are an international friend of the Thai police!"

Liu Wei said: "If we can find the smuggled ivory at the port, it is possible to follow the clues to find the force behind the smuggling gang."

But it doesn't feel that simple, and the chain of interests behind it may be beyond our imagination!"

The senior superintendent understood the meaning of Liu Wei's words, and said firmly: "Liu Wei, I can tell you now that the superintendent is paying close attention to this smuggling case, no matter how powerful the force behind it is, the Thai police will also arrest them!"

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment.

The Superintendent personally supervises!

That's about the Thai royal family.

The Superintendent is the highest position in Thailand's police system, conferred by the Thai royal family, which is equivalent to the Ministry of Public Security in China.

Liu Wei smiled and nodded, "I wish you all the best in advance to solve the big case!"

The senior superintendent said: "The next most important task is to find the lair of the smuggling gang, use their conflict of interest with the forces behind it, and dig out the chain of interests behind it!"

Liu Wei said: "If there is a harvest in the port, you will get more clues!"

The senior superintendent nodded, his heart fueling his fighting spirit.

After a while, the police officer who went out to investigate the road came over with a printed map of the distribution of the road in Batongchai.

The senior superintendent stared at the rural roads scattered throughout the Batongchai area, and there were at least ten roads on the drawings, but which one was correct?

He couldn't come to a conclusion for a while.

"Can you let me see?" Liu Wei took the initiative to ask.

"Of course!" The senior superintendent had fully trusted Liu Wei and happily handed over the drawings to Liu Wei.

Liu Wei flipped through the drawings one by one, focusing on observing some eye-catching signs around the road, just looking at the road, it was crooked, and he couldn't see anything, but he might be able to find some clues when comparing the surrounding environment.

When flipping through the seventh drawing, Liu Wei found a triangular sign drawn next to the road entrance to the mountain pass, and annotated the sign at the bottom of the drawing.

The note reads: "Indochina Tiger Key Activity Area"!

Liu Wei smiled and asked, "In Thailand, what is the level of protection of the Indochinese tiger?"

The senior superintendent said, "At the national level!"

"Is there any clear law in Thailand that prohibits humans from engaging in commercial and commercial activities in areas where first-class protected animals are distributed?" asked Liu Wei.

The senior superintendent nodded.

"It shouldn't be wrong, this is the way!" Liu Wei said with the drawings.

The senior superintendent used his brain, thought about Liu Wei's question, and understood the basis of Liu Wei's judgment.

"Ready to go!" The senior superintendent turned back to give orders to the officers.

Liu Wei immediately persuaded him: "It's too risky for you to rush in like this, just imagine, the smuggling gang has been engaged in smuggling criminal activities for many years, why are you so confident that you won't be caught by the police?"

One is because their plan of action seems elaborate and easy to confuse the police.

The second is that they think that their base is very safe, because they will feel that it is impossible for the police to think about the Indochina tigers, after all, it is clearly stipulated by the law, they are taking advantage of the loopholes of the law, and there is another point, it is impossible to engage in such a lifeless business without the support of the armed forces.

With your current police force, it is equivalent to sending you to death, and you are still startling snakes, and it will be even more difficult to do it next!"

"Do you have any better suggestions?" said Senior Superintendent agreeing with Liu Wei's analysis.

Liu Wei said: "I can help you find out the situation first!"
