At the hotel entrance.
Xue Nan opened the door and got into the car. After thinking for a long time, he immediately called Zhou Xian.
"Hello?!"
"Mr. Zhou... Mr. Zhou, I have a problem here." Xue Nan said with a stiff face: "The girl who was used as bait was found and is dead."
"Dead? Who did it?!" Zhou Xian asked in a cold voice.
"It is estimated that An Qiqi and another woman discovered the identity of the bait, and the three of them had a conflict and accidentally killed our people." Xue Nan replied anxiously: "Now the two women have run away, but they definitely can't leave the island."
Zhou Xian was silent.
"...!" Xue Nan didn't hear Zhou Xian's response, and he was very panicked. He immediately explained: "I didn't handle this well. It's my fault. But the bait we found is an outsider, with less professionalism and adaptability..."
"Which police station manages that island?" Zhou Xian asked bluntly.
"Saffo County Police Department." Xue Nan responded immediately: "Mr. Zhou, there is still hope for a turnaround, and it can be worked out. There is no need to even think about it, An Qiqi must have participated in the murder!"
"You should disappear and leave Washington immediately." Zhou Xian said indifferently.
"Oh, okay, okay, I get it."
"Yeah, that's it."
After that, the two ended the call, and Xue Nan angrily cursed: "Wang Ying! You are a waste!!"
For the Xue family, they were able to get in touch with Zhou Xian thanks to Kang Dinghuang's matchmaking, because before they could only contact the middle and high-level cadres of the garrison. To put it bluntly, they could not talk to Tan Hengqiang at all, and at most they could only contact Tan Mingchao.
Some time ago, the old faction represented by Zhou Xian had an irreconcilable conflict with the garrison, and the Xue family, which was caught in the middle, had to take a stand.
Since the Qingyi Bureau, Zhou Xian and others have been making plans against Lao Mo recently, the Xue family living here must express their loyalty to them, so they secretly alienated the garrison. Because their business center is not in Longcheng, it is useless to keep licking Tan Hengqiang.
In other words, Xue Nan's job of dealing with An Qiqi was the first task Zhou Xian gave him. He originally wanted to show off his ability, but now because of Wang Ying's death, the task has failed.
For Xue Nan, this result was difficult to accept. He had done a lot of preparation in the early stage, quickly bribed Wang Ying, and secretly paid a lot of money, but now the flattery hit the hoof. Zhou Xian might completely abandon the Xue family because of this mistake.
In the car, Xue Nan thought about it for a long time in a distracted manner, and immediately called Kang Dinghuang: "Leader, I'm here...!"
…
District 1, New York City.
Zhou Xian, who had come back to rest for a while, sat on the sofa and cursed gloomily, "They are all useless! They only know how to make money by relying on us, but when it comes to critical things, not a single one of them is useful!!"
The people accompanying Zhou Xian didn't dare to respond.
Zhou Xian lowered his head and rubbed his face, then said in a hoarse voice: "Call the Huazhou Police Joint Office and ask them to order the Saffo County Police Department to arrest him immediately!! Once the person is in hand, hand him over directly to the higher authorities!"
"Yes, I'll do it!" the person next to him replied.
"Damn it! A thing that even a fool could figure out was messed up by the Xue family!" Zhou Xian cursed angrily, "I could have used this incident to completely lock down Anze City and cut off the connection between Tan Hengqiang and him, but now I only got An Qiqi."
After saying that, Zhou Xian stood up angrily: "You guys do it!"
"Don't be angry. If An Qiqi is arrested, it will be a big blow to Anze City." The middle-aged man next to him persuaded.
Zhou Xian looked at him coldly, didn't answer, and just walked out of the room.
For Zhou Xian, once An Qiqi killed someone, the biggest benefit of this game was actually gone.
Zhou Xian's original plan was to set a trap and get An Qiqi to participate in Wang Ying's investment, then connect the companies invested by both parties with Huaqu Capital, and use the fact that An Zecheng used his daughter's relationship to accept bribes to completely lock down the An couple and force them to fall or defect to him.
Does this plan sound familiar?!
In fact, this is the whole process of the Xin family's downfall, which was copied by Zhou Xian. The only difference is that Xin Xiaoming did accept money from Huaqu, while Anzecheng was completely framed.
But these are not important. As long as the bureau is well organized, the accounts are clear, the logic is coherent, and An Qiqi has indeed come into contact with the red infiltration capital in the Chinese area, then Old An will have no chance of turning things around.
Why
Because the Xin family's betrayal has already happened, the upper echelons are now paying close attention to this matter. As long as there is evidence and leverage in hand, no one can protect Lao An.
But they never expected that the bait would be eaten by An Qiqi and Qiuqiu as soon as it was dropped. Before the other party had time to contact Red Capital, things had already reached their climax and nothing would change.
Zhou Xian left the meeting room, lowered his head and called a diplomat from the old faction, and whispered to him, "This is it, you go to Washington immediately and communicate with the police joint. Just tell them directly that the person involved in the case is An Zecheng's daughter. This person's current political stance in Longcheng is suspicious, so we have to conduct the most rigorous investigation into his daughter's case."
"knew!"
Zhou Xian had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and take revenge on Lao An.
…
Inside the island park.
Qiuqiu was hugging her legs and crying bitterly. She kept asking An Qiqi what she should do, but the latter seemed a little calmer than her. She sat on the lawn, staring at the ground with a dull look.
Perhaps it was because she had cried all her tears dry some time ago, or perhaps too many events recently had made An Qiqi's heart numb, so she was not too emotional, and she always had the urge to call Su Tianyu.
However, this impulse was quickly suppressed by An Qiqi.
We've already broken up, why are you calling me now
“Tramp!”
Just as Qiuqiu was crying bitterly, footsteps were heard and An Qiqi suddenly turned around to look.
"Raise your hands above your head. Don't do anything radical. I will shoot you, lady!" A police officer raised his gun and shouted, "Now stand up slowly!"
Around, the sound of footsteps stepping on weeds could be heard, and a large group of police officers surrounded them.
…
Dragon City.
Yu Mingyuan has already rushed to Washington with Shuanghui.
"The Qingyi Bureau has even extended its hand to your sister?!" Kong Zhenghui asked in disbelief.
"We don't know who is reaching out yet!" Yu Mingyuan frowned and urged, "Drive quickly!"
