The man ran over to open the car door. A chubby middle-aged man got out of the car. He glanced around and asked the man beside him, "What's going on?"
"Mr. Li, the group of people I told you about on the phone has called the police." The man moved closer to the middle-aged man and explained the situation to him.
The middle-aged man frowned and looked at the policemen. He waved his hand and said, "We will handle it ourselves. We don't need to trouble the police."
The leading policeman was stunned. He didn't expect the middle-aged man to be so arrogant. Did he want them to leave?
"Did you hear that? Mr. Li is asking you to leave." The man shouted at the policemen. Now that he had someone to back him up, he became bolder.
The policeman frowned. Was this middle-aged man the Mr. Li that the middle-aged man had mentioned at the beginning? According to what the man just said, the person in front of him was the one who had a good relationship with Director Fu. But even if it was true, wasn't it a little too arrogant for him to have a good relationship with Director Fu?
Illegal detention and possession of controlled weapons. Come back to the station with me. The leading policeman looked at the middle-aged man coldly. It was one thing that the middle-aged man was acquainted with Director Fu, but Chen Xing and the others were here. He knew what to do without thinking. Even if the matter was reported to Director Fu, he believed that Director Fu would praise him for doing the right thing. The people of the inspection team were here, and the matter was directly related to them. Who would dare to be perfunctory?
Didn't you hear what I said? The middle-aged man didn't expect that the policeman in front of him would ignore his words. His face darkened. Why? Do you want me to call Director Fu?
You have the right to call, but how to handle the case is our business. The leading policeman replied coldly. He signaled one of his men to make a call and ask for backup. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to bring the people back with just two cars.
The policeman asked his man to make the call. He pretended not to see the threatening look in the middle-aged man's eyes.
These people are acting sneakily in our construction site. How are you going to deal with them? The middle-aged man stared at the policeman in front of him.
This is our business. We don't need to report to you. The policeman replied expressionlessly. Since he had already offended the middle-aged man, there was no need to be afraid anymore.
The middle-aged man was rendered speechless by the policeman's words. Looking at the young policeman in front of him, the middle-aged man was so angry that he laughed. Young people were indeed a little hot-blooded. Fine, I want to see how much backbone you have.
The middle-aged man took out his phone and dialed a number. It was the phone number of Fu Xiaoxiang, the executive deputy director of the district branch. The middle-aged man and Fu Xiaoxiang often came out to eat. When they were happy at the table, they would even call each other brothers. The relationship between the two couldn't be better. Now that he had encountered such an ignorant policeman, the middle-aged man didn't want to waste his breath and decided to use Fu Xiaoxiang's name.
While waiting for the call to be connected, the middle-aged man glanced at Chen Xing and the others. He had already subconsciously thought that Chen Xing and the others were related to the relocated households. There was no other reason. Recently, the relocated households on the original site of the construction site had been making a lot of noise. They even said that they would come to stop the construction. The middle-aged man specially hired a group of hooligans to guard the gate to prevent the relocated households from causing trouble. He didn't expect that these people would really dare to come. He had just received the call and rushed over. He planned to teach these people a lesson. If they really angered him, they shouldn't blame him for using violent means to solve the problem.
The call was connected. The middle-aged man chatted with Fu Xiaoxiang for a while. Soon, the middle-aged man sneered and took the phone down. He pointed at the leading policeman. You, come over here. Deputy Director Fu wants to talk to you. Why? Do you dare to answer?
The policeman hesitated for a moment. He quickly walked forward and took the phone.
I'm Fu Xiaoxiang. Which station are you from? Fu Xiaoxiang's official voice came from the phone.
Deputy Director Fu, I'm from the Yunxiu Station. The policeman replied and straightened his back. However, his eyes secretly glanced at Chen Xing and the others.
I heard from Boss Li that you guys can't distinguish between right and wrong when handling the police situation?
Reporting to Deputy Director Fu, we have always adhered to the principle of fairness. The people who called the police today were the inspection team from the higher-ups. We didn't deliberately favor them. Instead, we insisted on using evidence to speak …
Before the policeman finished speaking, Fu Xiaoxiang anxiously interrupted him. Did you just say that the people who called the police were the inspection team from the higher-ups?
Yes, Deputy Director Fu.
Are you sure?
Deputy Director Fu, I've seen their ID. It's true.
The policeman walked to the side. When he answered Fu Xiaoxiang's questions, he slightly lowered his voice, intentionally avoiding the people around him.
At this moment, there was no doubt that the policeman used some technique to answer the questions. It seemed like his answers were methodical and logical, but in fact, he had the intention of pleasing Fu Xiaoxiang. After all, Fu Xiaoxiang was a leader of the branch. Perhaps he could build a relationship with him in the future.
After the policeman finished speaking, he was waiting for the reply from the other end of the phone. However, the phone suddenly went silent. The policeman was stunned for a moment. He took the phone in front of him and looked at it.
Could it be that the other party hung up?
Seeing that the phone was still connected, the policeman pursed his lips. He thought to himself, Do these leaders have to take a long breath just to speak?
You did well. Sticking to your principles is the right thing to do. Also, remember that I didn't talk to you on the phone today.
After Fu Xiaoxiang finished speaking, he directly hung up the phone, leaving the policeman stunned on the spot. He didn't even have a chance to say another word.
After thinking about it for a moment, the policeman's lips curled into a mocking smile. He thought to himself that this leader was also a good-for-nothing. When he heard about the inspection team, he was so scared that he peed his pants. The last sentence was obviously said without thinking. That was just a little bit of courage. It was embarrassing.
The policeman was muttering to himself, but Fu Xiaoxiang, who was on the other end of the phone, was quite frightened. After being stunned for a while, Fu Xiaoxiang called the director of the Municipal Bureau, Shi Rongcheng, without saying anything. He was able to sit in the position of the second-in-command of the central city branch because of his relationship with Shi Rongcheng. If he had to draw a camp, then he would belong to Shi Rongcheng's camp. Now that he learned of such news, Fu Xiaoxiang immediately wanted to inform Shi Rongcheng.
As a cadre with real power, Fu Xiaoxiang received the news almost immediately after Ning Shuangqi's accident at noon. Although he wasn't qualified to attend the meeting, the explosive news of Ning Shuangqi being taken away still spread in the cadre circle in the city immediately. Fu Xiaoxiang also found out about this matter after receiving a text message from someone.
The call was quickly connected. Fu Xiaoxiang didn't care about the compliments and politeness and immediately said, "Director Shi, someone from the inspection team just went to the Changxing construction site to investigate."
"So fast?" Shi Rongcheng, who was on the other end of the phone, was a little shocked. There was even a hint of panic in his voice.
"Director Shi, it seems that Wang Zhicheng is also finished. He must have been targeted because he was involved in Ning Shuangqi's case. What should we do?" Fu Xiaoxiang said with some fear.
"What are you panicking for? Isn't Wang Zhicheng still fine now? I just talked to him on another phone." Shi Rongcheng scolded in a low voice. Although he was scolding his subordinate, Shi Rongcheng's own hands were slightly trembling.
Shi Rongcheng, Fu Xiaoxiang, and the others had no reason to not be nervous. They were in the same boat as Ning Shuangqi, and they also had a close relationship with the boss of the Changxing project, Wang Zhicheng. At the very least, they had received a lot of benefits from him. Looking at the current situation, they might all be wiped out at the same time. The fear in the depths of their hearts was completely exposed.
"Oh right, Director Shi, there's something I forgot to tell you. I just heard a piece of news from the station. Tong Baiyan's house in the Fuchun district seems to have been stolen. Xiang Xiaohai is personally handling this case, and he has also issued a gag order. The police officers involved in the case are not allowed to leak even half a word. Even the records of the case have been processed." Fu Xiaoxiang suddenly remembered this matter and hurriedly told Shi Rongcheng. If he wasn't distracted by the call from the middle-aged man, he would have called Shi Rongcheng to report this matter.
"Are you sure?" Shi Rongcheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
"I'm sure. If it wasn't for a police officer who received my kindness before and specifically told me, even I wouldn't have known about this matter. Xiang Xiaohai had asked the people handling the case not to leak even half a word to us deputies." Fu Xiaoxiang said.
Shi Rongcheng listened to Fu Xiaoxiang's words and became silent. That pair of gloomy eyes quietly turned. In the face of danger, Shi Rongcheng thought of Tong Baiyan, the head of the Municipal Party Committee. In this situation where a storm was brewing, Tong Baiyan, the head of the Municipal Party Committee, could play a greater role than all of them.
If they had something on the other side, once the two sides formed an alliance, would they be able to get through this crisis?
