Flexible investigation power of procuratorates makes a great role in the legal supervision. The criminal procedure law (amendment draft) has retained the flexible investigation power of procuratorates. From the perspective of judicial practice, the number of cases handled by procuratorates is limited, but it can't be simply considered that the power has not played a practical role. In fact, the position of flexible investigation power is timely to supervision, seek case justice rather than active right of action. The direction of the future development of the power of flexible investigation power is not to extend the scope of the case through the repair of the law, but to make a technical solution to the bottlenecks in the starting conditions of the motor investigation right, the procedure of examination and so on at the standard level, and finally implement the functional orientation of the flexible investigation power.
