Chapter 818: A Tricky Case

After the investigation of the scene was completed, the body was pulled away by the crematorium vehicle that was called, and all the rest of the things were pulled back to the substation, that is, the Pajero, and a car crane was also called, put it in the compartment of the car crane, and pulled back to the courtyard of the substation.

Back in the office, Guo Debiao didn't feel sleepy at all, directly turned on the computer on his desk, and began to look for what Qi Tiansheng said on the internal network. It didn't take long for Guo Debiao to figure out what that Mazu and the so-called synthetic ephedra and flavin were.

Before the reform and opening up, there was no circulation of methamphetamine in mainland China until 1991, when ice was discovered in Guangdong Province, which was the most open and developed region in China at that time. Only a little more than 10 years later, Changting County, in the mountainous area of western Mindong Province, has become one of the centers for the manufacture of methamphetamine raw materials in China, and they have expanded the production sites from the county to all parts of the country, and some of the ephedrine they produce is shipped to Guangdong Province, which is then made into methamphetamine and transferred to the whole country; and a larger part of ephedrine is transited from northern Myanmar through the Mekong River to all parts of the world.

Since 2007, more than 1,000 people have been imprisoned in Changting County for the production of narcotics, not including the large number of people who are still hidden and proficient in the technology of making narcotics. One of the most famous is Xiao Jihe, who was the deputy director of the Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau of Changting County, Mindong Province, after he was dismissed from public office for accepting bribes, he relied on his chemical expertise and devoted himself to research, and mastered the technology of chemical synthesis of ephedrine and flavine using bromopropiophenone (listed as the first class of precursor chemicals on May 12, 2014), and is known as the "originator" of the technology of illegal chemical synthesis of ephedrine and flavine.

As a basic drug, "ephedrine" is commonly found in compound preparations, and 10 boxes of new Contec's cold medicine contain 4 to 5 grams of ephedrine. Ephedrine is crystalline powder or needle-like, white, odorless, bitter taste, can make the skin, mucous membranes and visceral blood vessels constrict, by stimulating adrenergic receptors, reduce congestion reaction, relieve nasal congestion symptoms, so it is quite effective in the treatment of rhinitis and colds. It can also increase the pulse pressure of the human body, increase the blood pressure, reflexively excite the vagus nerve due to the increase in blood pressure, stimulate the cerebral cortex and subcortical center of the human body, and make people excited, insomnia, restlessness and tremor. Long-term use of narcotics-containing drugs may lead to addiction.

It is precisely for this reason that it is very difficult for the public security department to crack down on the criminal activities of making hemp, because this thing itself is the main ingredient of some regular medicines. Some pharmaceutical factories can reasonably and legally produce and sell in the name of pharmaceutical raw materials.

For example, Xiao Jihe, who used to be the deputy director of the county quality supervision bureau, has been caught by the public security department many times using bromophenylacetone to chemically synthesize ephedrine and xanthine, but he refused to admit his guilt on the grounds of "subjective ignorance".

At present, laws and regulations have clear provisions prohibiting the manufacture of ephedrine, bromophenylacetone, and other raw materials for the production of narcotics, but there is still a blank on how to characterize and deal with the illegal synthesis of chloroephedrine. Xiao Jihe was sentenced to only one year and six months in prison when he was imprisoned for the second time in April 2010. In fact, bromophenylacetone, ephedrine, these so-called raw materials, are only one step away from methamphetamine. 1 kilogram of ephedrine becomes 0.7 kilograms of methamphetamine as soon as it is deoxygenated, and he is playing this edge ball.

However, the profits from the production and sale of ephedra and xanthine are very high, and it is precisely because of this that Xiao Jihe, who had served as deputy director of the Quality Supervision Bureau, took risks and repeatedly arrested and repeatedly, and every time he was released from prison, he intensified his efforts to expand the scale of his production and sale of ephedra and xanthine, so that the entire Changting County became a well-known distribution center for the production and sale of ephedra and xanthine in the country, and it was not until not long ago that the case attracted great attention from the Ministry of Public Security, and Xiao Jihe fell into the legal net again.

Seeing this, Guo Debiao's scalp was a little numb, and he keenly felt that the deceased from Mindong that he saw today was probably one of the many criminals who made hemp, and the large amount of money was probably his illegal gains, and since Xiao Jihe, the "Mazu" who had served as the deputy director of the Quality Supervision Bureau, would take risks for the huge profits from the production and sale of ephedrine, would this major drug case that may have been caused by a car accident also involve government officials from Hannan?

At this time, Guo Debiao still had a trace of luck, he hoped that he could get a test result unrelated to the drug at dawn, otherwise, there would be big trouble in the development of the new area!

At this time, there was a knock on his office door, and it was Qi Tiansheng who knocked on the door, and after coming in, he looked at Guo Debiao with a somewhat strange look, and waited for a long time, and when Guo Debiao was a little impatient and was about to get angry, he handed him a copy, which was very clear that it was a bill of lading, or a similar thing with a proving effect. The name of the item is ephedrine. The shipping unit was blacked out, and there was only one receiving unit, looking at the name of a pharmaceutical factory, in Mindong.

"Where did you come from?" asked Guo Debiao.

"Among those documents in the car. It should be the source of the contents of those paper bags. Qi Tiansheng replied.

"What should I do, are you going to do it?" Qi Tiansheng glanced at Guo Debiao again and asked, he didn't know whether to congratulate Guo Debiao or pinch his sweat for him, it is said that Guo Debiao must have made a great contribution to finding such a big case by checking the car, the problem is that this big case is not easy to investigate.

Guo Debiao pinched the bill of lading like pinching a piece of red-hot iron, his hands trembled a little, and he even had a regular bill of lading, so how deep the water behind this case can be imagined, how can such a case be handled by a small chief of public security of his own sub-bureau? !

At this time, Wang Junhong finally arrived, Guo Debiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the sky fell and there was a high top, and he didn't have to this white powder seller as a cabbage seller, so he quickly reported the incident to Wang Junhong, and looked at Wang Junhong with a blank eye and said: "Wang Ju, this is a big drug case, what do you think should be done?!......

Wang Junhong looked at Guo Debiao steadily, and began to wonder if it was a mistake for him to reactivate this guy, how could this guy be so able to cause trouble, the matter of accidentally arresting the new secretary of the provincial party committee before was gone, and now he has attracted such a tricky drug-related case!

Just when the three policemen were still worried about how to deal with this thorny drug-related case. Sha Baiyun, who is the general manager of Hantian Pharmaceutical Group, has received a phone reminder, and the other party only said one sentence: Wei San died in a car accident, and the body and all his belongings are in the new district office. I hung up.
