Late at night, Hua Shantou, who claimed to be a life-and-death brother of Li Xing, was taken back to the police station. Immediately afterwards, Wang Daolin ordered his police officers to start arresting people in the Zhannan area. Over 20 indirect "involved persons" were arrested and summoned overnight, and all of them were "employees" of Changqing Company.
Did Wang Daolin dare to order the arrest of people from Changqing Company because Hua Shantou was stupid enough to drop the case?
In fact, it was not at all. In fact, after Hua Shantou was sent to the police station, he had already realized that these people were not Li Xing's colleagues, so he chose to resist the interrogation and refused to explain any case, but this approach was not very effective.
Wang Daolin did not need Hua Shantou's confession at all, because there were more than a dozen of his accomplices, and they were all henchmen raised by Changqing Company. These people usually relied on Li Xing's protection and did things very ostentatiously. If the police station wanted to investigate, the other party must be full of problems.
Wang Daolin's purpose was 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. This would ensure that they were correct.
…
After the arrests of the henchmen including Hua Shantui and the people from Changqing Company, Li Xing had heard the news inside the police station. He called Wang Daolin again at around 3 a.m., but the other party still did not answer and hung up the call.
Li Xing was very anxious. He even heard that Hua Shantui had dropped the case. He told Wang Daolin's people that they had torn their pants together.
This news directly made Li Xing so angry that his endocrine system was out of balance. He did not sleep all night and went to the unit at around 7 a.m. the next day to see Wang Daolin. But the police officers under the other party said that Wang Daolin would go out to investigate during the day and would not come to the unit at all.
Without communication, the problem cannot be solved. Li Xing was finally forced to find a deputy director of the Longcheng Police Department to coordinate.
…
At about noon, Wang Daolin's police car stopped at the door of a teahouse. He got out of the car alone and walked to a private room on the third floor.
Inside, a fat man in his fifties sat on the tatami, drinking tea, and waved 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 talk openly." The deputy director surnamed 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 only 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 to the end!"
"Li Xing said there was a misunderstanding in this matter."
"What misunderstanding? Was it not Lu Feng who did it? Was it me or Su Tiannan who did it?" 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 to add: "He is just quibbling. He thought I dared not touch Changqing before, but now that things have become serious, he wants me to keep quiet. Why?"
"Li Xing has the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce and companies like Changqing Gang behind him. I personally suggest that you give him some face and don't make things too ugly."
"Director Guo, since we are talking about face, I would also like to ask, Su Laoer and I are comrades-in-arms. Does Lu Feng know? Does Li Hongze know? Does he Li Xing know?" Wang Daolin tapped the table with his fingers: "They knew it, but they still tried to kill the Su family. Did he give me face? Did they say hello to me? I wanted Su Tiannan to meet his father before, but the Anti-Smuggling Department refused. Do I have face?"
Deputy Director Guo was 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 you give it to me, Director Guo?" Wang Daolin asked with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Let them talk. It would be best if they can reach an agreement. If they can't, I won't care." Deputy Director Guo replied bluntly: "Before we talk, let's first send the case to the arrested henchmen, okay?"
Wang Daolin thought for a moment, picked up the teacup and replied: "Okay, since you said so, I will definitely give you face. The rest is up to Changqing to do."
"Haha, thank you, Lao Wang!"
"You are always the leader." Wang Daolin praised the other party.
...
In the People's Hospital of Zhanan District.
Su Tianyu was sitting on a chair, fiddling with his mobile phone.
Next to the bed, Su Tianbei whispered to his elder brother: "Did you take my gun?"
"What gun?" Su Tiannan was stunned.
"The gun I hid in the car is gone. Tianyu and I analyzed it and it was possible that you stole it." Su Tianbei said seriously: "You were afraid that I would 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 anxiously: "I didn't sleep all night because of this."
"...!" Su Tiannan looked at him speechlessly, and after a long silence, he replied: "With your IQ, try not to play with Xiaoyu in the future, otherwise he will sell you out and you won't know."
"What do you mean? What do you mean? Explain it!" 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?"
"Hehe, Brother Bai is here." Su Tiannan stretched out his hand to support the bed and sat up.
"It's okay, you lie down, I'm here to tell you something good." Bai Hongbo grinned and said, "A friend of mine from the Municipal Management Committee called me and said that some leaders at the top are very dissatisfied with Changqing Company's recent practices, and asked us to find a connection."
Su Tiannan was stunned: "What connection?"
"My friend said that there is a new leader in the Management Committee, who is mainly responsible for the construction of the future Longcheng Rural Sanitation System. His name is Yu Jinrong. This person took the lead in criticizing some recent chaos in Zhannan District at the regular meeting of the Management Committee today, 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 smiled and said, "My friend means that our four companies should go to meet Yu Jinrong. After all, he has the same demands as us in some positions."
Su Tiannan was very happy to hear this: "This is a good thing, then we must meet him! I'll go with you."
"You are injured, so don't go." Su Tianbei smiled and said, "Liuzi and I will go there."
"Make sure to negotiate." Su Tiannan instructed.
"Understood!"
After everyone chatted for a while, Su Tianyu, Su Tianbei, Bai Hongbo and others left the hospital and went to Longkou District, ready to meet Yu Jinrong after being introduced by someone.
...
Afternoon.
In the 403 cell of the Criminal Detention Center of the Police Department, a thin old man with a shaved head was boredly reading a pure love action novel.
Diagonally opposite, a new prisoner was being surveyed by the prisoner brother in charge of the room: "Why are you here?"
"Smashing the garbage factory." The new prisoner was none other than the flowered shirt.
"What's there to smash in a garbage dump? Is it an internal fight in 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?"
"Zhanan Su's! What's the matter? Do you know it?" The man in the flowered shirt replied fiercely.
"Bang!"
The bald old man flew up and kicked directly at the man in the flowered shirt in the face: "Anyone who knows martial arts in the room, practice martial arts on him!"
