Chapter 19: The turning point came quietly

Views:

Late at night, the man in the flowered shirt, who claimed to be a sworn brother of Li Xing, was brought back to the police station. Immediately afterwards, Wang Daolin ordered his police officers to start arresting people in the Zhanan area. Overnight, more than 20 people indirectly "involved in the case" were arrested and summoned, and all of them were "employees" of Changqing Company.

Was it because Wang Daolin was so stupid as to let the man in the flowered shirt drop the case that he dared to order the arrest of people from Changqing Company

In fact, it was not the case at all. In fact, after being sent to the police station, Hua Shanche had already realized that these people were not Li Xing's colleagues, so he chose to resist interrogation and refused to explain any case, but this approach was not very effective.

Wang Daolin didn't need the confession of the flowered shirt at all, because there were more than a dozen accomplices in the case, all of whom were henchmen of Changqing Company. These people usually relied on Li Xing's protection and acted in a blatant manner. If the police department wanted to investigate, they would definitely be full of problems.

Wang Daolin's purpose in doing this was very simple, which was to put pressure on Li Xing and Changqing Company. He used the shooting case, the arson case, and the case of seriously injuring workers as an excuse to arrest people first and then interrogate them, which would ensure that he was right.

After Hua Shanzi and his gang members and people from Changqing Company were arrested one after another, Li Xing had heard the news inside the police station. At around 3:00 in the morning, he called Wang Daolin again, but the other party still didn't answer and hung up the call.

Li Xing was very anxious. At one point he even heard that the case involving the flowered shirt had been dropped. He told Wang Daolin's men that they had torn his pants together.

This news directly angered Li Xing to the point of endocrine disorder. He did not sleep all night and went to the unit at around 7 o'clock the next morning, hoping to see Wang Daolin. However, the police officers under him said that Wang Daolin had to go out to investigate a case during the day and would not come to the unit at all.

Without communication, the problem could not be solved. Finally, Li Xing was forced into a corner and had to ask a deputy director of the Longcheng Police Station to coordinate.

Around noon, Wang Daolin's police car stopped at the entrance of a teahouse. He got out of the car alone and walked to a private room on the third floor.

Inside the room, a fat man in his fifties sat on the tatami, drinking tea and waving at Wang Daolin: "Come on, Lao Wang, sit down!"

Wang Daolin took off his shoes, bent over and sat on the tatami: "Director Guo, why are you so idle today?"

"There are no outsiders here, let's be frank." Deputy Director Guo took the initiative to help Wang Daolin fill the tea, pushed the teacup over and said, "Li Xing is looking for me."

Wang Daolin smiled and said nothing.

"Haha, Lao Wang, do you really want to make things so awkward with Li Xing?" Deputy Director Guo did not say anything, but just asked vaguely.

"If I were taller, the three shots at the Cantonese restaurant last night would have blown my brains out." Wang Daolin paused and replied, "Director Guo, the people at Changqing Company are too arrogant. Even if I don't hold them accountable, our police department will investigate this shooting case thoroughly!"

"Li Xing said there was a misunderstanding in this matter."

"What misunderstanding? It wasn't Lu Feng who did it? Then was it me who did it, or Su Tiannan?" Wang Daolin asked back.

Director Guo was silent.

"Su Tiannan was shot in the abdomen. I saw it with my own eyes, Director Guo!" Wang Daolin continued, "He is just quibbling. He thought I didn't dare to touch Changqing before, but now that the matter has become serious, he wants me to keep quiet. Why?"

"Li Xing has the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce and companies like the Changqing Gang behind him. My personal suggestion is that you give him some face and don't make things too ugly."

"Director Guo, since we're talking about face, I'd also like to ask, Su Laoer and I are comrades-in-arms, does Lu Feng know? Does Li Hongze know? Does Li Xing know?" Wang Daolin tapped the table with his fingers, "They knew it, but they still tried to kill the Su family. Did they give me face? Did they say hello to me? I wanted Su Tiannan to meet his father before, but the Anti-Smuggling Bureau refused. Do I have face?"

Deputy Director Guo fell silent again.

The room was quiet. After the two of them were in a stalemate for a while, Deputy Director Guo took a sip of tea and said, "Then, please give me some face, Lao Wang."

"How do I give it, Director Guo?" Wang Daolin asked with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Let them talk about it. It would be great if they can reach an agreement. If they can't, I won't care." Deputy Director Guo replied bluntly, "Before we talk about it, let the case go to the arrested henchmen first, okay?"

Wang Daolin thought for a moment, picked up the teacup and replied, "Okay, since you've spoken, I'll definitely give you face. The rest is up to Changqing to decide."

"Haha, thanks, Lao Wang!"

"You will always be the leader." Wang Daolin praised the other party.

Inside the Zhanan District People's Hospital.

Su Tianyu was sitting on a chair, fiddling with his cell phone.

Beside the bed, Su Tianbei whispered to his elder brother, "Did you take my gun?"

"What gun?" Su Tiannan was confused.

"The gun I hid in the car is gone. Tianyu and I analyzed it and we think it's possible that you stole it." Su Tianbei said seriously, "Are you afraid that I'll get into trouble with the gun, so you hid it secretly?"

"Are you sick?"

"Did you take it? Tell me the truth!" Su Tianbei asked urgently, "I didn't sleep all night because of this."

"…!" Su Tiannan looked at him speechlessly. After a long silence, he replied, "With your IQ, try not to play with Xiaoyu in the future, or he will sell you out and you won't even know it."

"What do you mean? What do you mean? Explain it clearly!" Su Tianbei asked cutely.

"Don't talk to me. My head hurts when I see you."

“…!”

When the two brothers were arguing, the real man Bai Hongbo suddenly walked in: "Hey, Tiannan, are you feeling better?"

"Haha, Brother Bai is here." Su Tiannan reached out to hold the bed and sat up.

"It's okay, just lie down. I'm here to tell you something good." Bai Hongbo bared his teeth and said, "A friend from the Municipal Management Committee called me and said that some senior leaders were very dissatisfied with Changqing Company's recent practices and asked us to find some connections."

Su Tiannan was stunned: "What's the relationship?"

"My friend said that the management committee has a new leader who is mainly responsible for the construction of the future Longcheng rural sanitation system. His name is Yu Jinrong. At the regular meeting of the management committee today, this person took the lead in criticizing some recent chaos in Zhannan District, and pointed out that... Changqing Company's monopoly has seriously affected the reputation of the management committee, and even made the public label sanitation workers black." Bai Hongbo said with a smile: "My friend means that we four companies should go meet this Yu Jinrong. After all, he has the same demands as us in some ways."

Su Tiannan was very happy to hear this: "This is good news, we must meet him! I'll go with you."

"You are injured, so don't go." Su Tianbei said with a smile: "Liu Zi and I will go."

"Make sure to negotiate it out." Su Tiannan instructed.

"clear!"

After everyone chatted for a while, Su Tianyu, Su Tianbei, Bai Hongbo and others left the hospital and went to Longkou District, preparing to meet Yu Jinrong after being introduced by someone.

afternoon.

In cell 403 of the Criminal Detention Center of the Police Department, a lean old man with a shaved head was reading a pure love action novel with boredom.

Across from him, a new prisoner was being questioned by the prisoner boss: "Why are you here?"

"Smash and destroy the garbage factory." The new prisoner was none other than the man in the flowered shirt.

"What's there to smash in a garbage factory? Is it just a fight among the Beggars' Gang?" The prisoner's eldest brother was very humorous: "Which area are you smashing?"

"Zhanan Su's garbage dump."

As soon as he finished speaking, the bald old man opposite was stunned for a moment: "What are you talking about? Whose garbage dump is this?"

"From the Su family in Zhannan! What's the matter? Do you know him?" The man in the flowered shirt replied in a fierce tone.

“Bang!”

The bald old man flew up and kicked the man in the flowered shirt directly in the face: "Anyone who knows martial arts in this room, come and teach him a lesson!"
