In the afternoon, a plane took off, and You Yifan's men, as well as the garrison troops, as well as Bai Hongbo, Su Tianbei, Zhou Tonghui and others, all flew to the old triangle area around District 5 to negotiate with new suppliers.
After seeing everyone off, You Yifan invited Yu Mingyuan to his teahouse for tea, but the latter declined because he had something urgent to do at the union.
On the way back, Yu Mingyuan was sitting in the passenger seat, scrolling through his phone, when he suddenly exclaimed, "Fuck!"
"What's wrong?!"
"Long... Longkou has closed the street." Yu Mingyuan turned his head and said, "Deputy Mayor Guo, who is in charge of civil affairs, was attacked. It seems... it seems that he is gone."
"Ah?" Su Tianyu, who was driving, was also confused: "Why would the deputy mayor be attacked?"
"I heard that it was done by a laborer. The details were not disclosed, but... my group has exploded." Yu Mingyuan raised his head and replied, "It seems that it was due to resettlement issues. The laborer was also beaten to death on the spot."
Su Tianyu was stunned for a moment and replied: "Fuck, if such a big thing happened, how can we continue the trade?"
“If it’s caused by the trade closure, then there will definitely be subsequent impacts,” Yu Mingyuan said with some concern.
"Call You Yifan and ask him if he has any news."
"Okay!" Yu Mingyuan dialed You Yifan's number, but the latter was already on the phone.
…
An afternoon passed in the blink of an eye.
As evening approached, ordinary people also heard about the attack on Vice Mayor Guo.
At the Su family in Zhannan, Su Zhengcai asked in disbelief, "Is it... was it Xiao Yucheng who did it?"
"I asked, and it was him. He was shot dead on the spot." Su Tiannan nodded: "I heard that he was pulling a whole truck of gas tanks and was intercepted halfway."
"No, is this kid crazy? What does he want?!"
"I'm not very clear either." Su Tiannan shook his head.
"Ask around and find out what's going on." Su Zhengcai replied very experiencedly, "We still have to do things for him before. Don't let this guy end up being a radical element from Sinaloa. We'll be in big trouble!"
"Okay, I'll ask around."
Su Tiannan picked up the phone and dialed the number of the police department's contact.
After a series of communications, Su Tiannan roughly figured out what happened and also learned that Xiao Yucheng's motive for the attack might be due to his son's sudden death and the blackmail by the Material Control Department.
However, the details of Xiao Yucheng’s case have not yet been released, and even the information about Vice Mayor Guo’s death has not been reported to the public.
…
In the evening, around seven o'clock.
Secretary-General Lu hurriedly got out of the car and walked straight to the building of the City Center Hospital.
In the back, an accompanying civilian staff member caught up and whispered, "Secretary General, the police department just sent a message that they found some clues."
"What clues?" asked Secretary-General Lu.
"The day before Xiao Yucheng carried out the attack, an extra 50,000 yuan appeared in one of his private bank accounts." The civilian staff member whispered, "The police department communicated with the military intelligence department, and they found that the account that sent money to Xiao Yucheng was a bank account used by the Sinaloa Army, and it was also a private account."
"How did they find out about Chijun's private account?" Secretary-General Lu stopped.
"This account should be Zhao Weihu's personal slush fund, and there are frequent fund flows, so the military intelligence department has monitored this account. But the bank that owns this account is European Union Capital, and we can't control it." The civilian staff member added in a low voice: "Also, after receiving this remittance, Xiao Yucheng used more than 30,000 yuan to buy the tools for committing the crime. He bought them last night."
Secretary Lu learned the details of the case at the first opportunity, so he frowned and replied, "Does the police suspect that Xiao Yucheng was hired to kill him?"
"Yes, otherwise we can't explain why Zhao Weihu's personal account would transfer 50,000 yuan to such a person." The civilian staff nodded.
"Xiao Yucheng's son died, and he was blackmailed for 200,000 yuan. It was logical that he had a breakdown and wanted to take revenge on society." Secretary-General Lu whispered back, "Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that he was hired as a killer."
"Leader, after the border was sealed, Zhao Weihu's army was the most affected. It is normal for him to premeditatedly organize extreme attacks." The civilian staff also expressed their opinions.
After careful consideration, Secretary-General Lu replied meaningfully: "We cannot allow antagonism to arise between the government and the workers!"
The civilian staff was stunned for a moment.
"Go see Carl first."
Secretary Lu greeted him and turned to run upstairs.
…
Five minutes later, in the intensive care unit.
Carl, whose cheeks and arms were burned and half of his hair was burned off, lay on the hospital bed and yelled at Secretary Lu: "Oh my God, who knows what the hell the police funds in Longcheng are used for! Can you tell me why my car encountered a car bomb on the street? Is this a war-torn area like Sinalo?!"
"Mr. Karl, as far as I know, Xiao Yucheng's extreme behavior is because he was blackmailed." Secretary General Lu looked down at the other person's eyes and said softly, "He was arrested and taken to the Material Control Department. Someone asked him for a ransom of 200,000 yuan. Otherwise, he will be sentenced for selling controlled materials after the border was sealed and for being a military spy."
When Karl heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched, but he did not refute, because he was very clear about the dirty things his men had done.
"This kind of scandal cannot be leaked, otherwise it will be very troublesome." Secretary-General Lu said righteously: "I have asked the police department to arrest all the people involved."
Carl frowned and looked at him. He replied in a hoarse voice: "I asked my friend. Before the gangster took action, he received a remittance from Sinaloa. It was related to the Chi Army."
"Your judgment is very accurate." Secretary General Lu immediately replied: "Some radical elements of the Chi Army organized the attack in a premeditated manner because they were dissatisfied with the border blockade policy. This group is the common enemy of mankind!"
While the two were talking, in the office of the chairman of the Supervisory Committee, a continental cadre who could report directly to the District 1 Council and the President's Office angrily slammed the table and shouted: "The Chi Army is challenging the entire District 1 and our sanctions policy! They have been incorporated into the Mofei official army, and we must give them a strong counterattack!"
…
Tianhong Port.
You Yifan called Yu Mingyuan and said in a hoarse voice, "Let's slow down our cooperation with the Chi Army. They are in trouble."
"Ah? Why... why?!" Yu Mingyuan had received relatively little information and had not yet figured out what had happened.
