Chief Zhang was still the smartest. Wu Pengfei also nodded in agreement, not forgetting to flatter Zhang Qingyang at this time.
At this moment, only Zheng Guangfu had a gloomy expression. It wasn't that Zheng Guangfu didn't know that Zhang Qingyang was doing this for his own good, but he was still in the limelight during the day. Now that he was suddenly faced with a situation where he had to flee, Zheng Guangfu felt indignant. The sudden contrast was so great that Zheng Guangfu didn't even have time to think carefully. He had to agree now, and under the arrangements of Zhang Qingyang and the others, he had to leave Nanzhou City immediately and start a life as a fugitive. Of course, if he could successfully leave the country in the shortest time possible, he naturally wouldn't have to live a life of hiding when he went abroad.
Chief Zheng, don't tell me you still can't bear to part with your businesses? Zhang Qingyang glanced at Zheng Guangfu.
Abandoning a career that he had worked hard for his entire life, no one would be able to accept it. Zheng Guangfu shook his head and didn't deny Zhang Qingyang's words. Although he didn't reject Zhang Qingyang's arrangement, he was still thinking if there was any way to salvage the situation. Zhang Qingyang and the rest couldn't do anything about it, but Zheng Guangfu didn't only have Zhang Qingyang as his backer. He had another powerful backer in the province. Even Zhang Qingyang didn't know who that backer was. Zheng Guangfu had always kept this relationship a secret. It was something he used to save his life at critical moments. This time, Zhang Qingyang couldn't play a role. Perhaps that backer in the province could.
Old Zheng, I always thought you were a carefree person, but I didn't expect you to be so sentimental at a time like this. Think about it, if you lose your life, you lose everything. No matter how much money you have, it's useless. But as long as you're still here, you'll have a chance to make a comeback in the future. Where there's life, there's hope. I believe that with your ability, you'll still be able to do well abroad. Even if you can't, enjoying life abroad is better than staying in the country, isn't it? Pengfei and I still want to go abroad, but unfortunately, we're in the government and can't even emigrate. To be honest, we're envious of you, Old Zheng. Who knows, maybe after Pengfei and I retire, we'll also go abroad to accompany you. Seeing that Zheng Guangfu did not say anything, Zhang Qingyang tried to console him.
Chief Zhang had a point. Zheng Guangfu nodded and cursed in his heart. F * ck, it's easy for you to say that. Zhang Qingyang's business was not Zhang Qingyang's. Naturally, Zhang Qingyang didn't feel distressed at all. Once he went abroad, could he, a gangster who relied on fighting and killing, make a comeback? What a joke.
Chief Zheng, we're all doing this for your own good. I don't know how you poked the hornet's nest this time, but it's different this time. We can't even protect ourselves, let alone suppress this matter. Therefore, the wisest choice now is to send you away. The longer you stay, the more dangerous it will be. In the future, you might not be able to leave even if you want to. Wu Pengfei consoled.
Chief Zhang, Chief Wu, of course I know you won't harm me. I'll listen to your arrangements. Zheng Guangfu nodded and made a decision in his heart. He would first leave Nanzhou and wait until he was outside before contacting that person in the province. If the situation took a turn for the better, he would not be in a hurry to flee abroad.
The main thing now was that he had no way of contacting Mayor Li. He had never seen his phone turned off before. This time, it was really strange. Zhang Qingyang sighed. At the critical moment, he couldn't contact Li Haocheng in time. This was really terrible.
Mayor Li was not in Nanzhou? Zheng Guangfu asked.
No, he led a team abroad for an investigation and only left yesterday. Zhang Qingyang smacked his lips. Of all times, his phone had to be turned off at this time. It made him want to go crazy.
The time in the United States was different from here. Maybe it was the middle of the night there. Wu Pengfei said.
Whether it was the middle of the night or not, Mayor Li should be on 24 hours a day. Zhang Qingyang shook his head.
He couldn't contact Mayor Li through Lin Hong? Zheng Guangfu was also quite surprised.
He didn't know that. He hadn't contacted Lin Hong.
They were talking about Li Haocheng, but they didn't think that Li Haocheng was sleeping with the woman he had been drooling over. On the island of Hawaii, it was only about six o 'clock in the morning. Li Haocheng's phone ran out of power last night and turned off. He had two spare batteries, which he usually replaced. Last night, he simply didn't change them, lest he was disturbed when he was spending the night with Lin Qing.
Because Zhang Qingyang had made a plan to let Zheng Guangfu "escape", the car was originally driving to the city, but now it changed direction. Ceng Jiangtao drove to the detention center in the suburbs of the city, which was the place where they were now. It was on the other side of the detention center, and the distance was not close.
The car fell into silence for a while. Zhang Qingyang and Wu Pengfei had their own thoughts, and Zheng Guangfu also didn't say a word. It was related to his life. The so-called brotherly relationship was fake. They would talk about it if they could protect themselves. Zhang Qingyang was anxious to let Zheng Guangfu leave. On the surface, he was thinking about Zheng Guangfu, but in the end, he was also planning for himself. Wu Pengfei also had the same idea. Both of them were anxious when Zheng Guangfu stayed. This time, it was the people from the department who came down. Neither of them knew how this matter would develop, but as long as Zheng Guangfu was not caught, it would be beneficial to them.
Oh, Chief Zhang, I forgot to tell you something. Zheng Guangfu suddenly remembered the voice recorder that Chang Shengjun had asked him to listen to. "Just now, their leader let me listen to a voice recorder. Chief Zhang, it's a conversation I had with you in the hotel room last year. That time, Hei Zi was involved in a murder case. Do you still remember?" Zheng Guangfu suddenly remembered the voice recorder that Chang Shengjun had asked him to listen to.
Last year? Zhang Qingyang frowned. That should be a long time ago. After thinking for a while, Zhang Qingyang remembered that Zheng Guangfu had asked the Public Security Bureau to turn a blind eye to it. At that time, the Public Security Bureau had filed a case, but only arrested a few unimportant people. Without a doubt, Zhang Qingyang had agreed to Zheng Guangfu's request and settled this matter. Hei Zi was still at large. If it wasn't for the Dongfang Hotel incident, nothing would have happened to him. After thinking about it seriously, Zhang Qingyang also remembered that they had dinner at Zheng Guangfu's Haitian Hotel.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qingyang's eyes immediately widened. What did you say? Our conversation was recorded by someone?
Yes, it was that conversation that was recorded. Just now, when he was being questioned in the hotel, he didn't have time to think about it. Now that he thought about it, it was really frightening. They actually had such a recording in their hands. Zheng Guangfu said.
Wait, that time when we had dinner in your territory, how could it be recorded? Someone dared to put a voice recorder in your hotel room, and from what you said, it was purposely targeting us? Zhang Qingyang's face was very ugly. It had been more than a year, and now he suddenly heard that it was recorded. Zhang Qingyang also felt it was unbelievable.
That's why it's strange. The room we had dinner in is usually reserved for Chief Zhang. At most, it's only for me, Lin Hong, and Chief Zhang. It's not open to the public, and outsiders can't enter at all, except for the hotel staff and waiters. But I'm sure they don't have the guts to do such a thing. Who would put a voice recorder in there? This is too strange. Zheng Guangfu furrowed his brows. Even if someone wanted to target us, the person behind the scenes should have gotten this recording last year. Why did they only take it out now? Moreover, this recording actually fell into the hands of the people in the department. This is really scary.
Are you one hundred percent sure that the hotel staff wouldn't dare to do such a thing? Zhang Qingyang doubted Zheng Guangfu's words.
Although I don't have any convincing evidence to prove my words, I'm sure that the hotel staff wouldn't dare to do such a thing. Zheng Guangfu said confidently.
If it wasn't one of them, then who could it be? That private room is usually used for the two of us to eat or for my friends to eat. Chief Zheng, you can't possibly say that I put a recording device in it, right? Or that one of my friends secretly put a recording device in the private room. Zhang Qingyang's tone was a little harsh, and his mood had become very bad. The people in the department had such a recording, and it wasn't good for him.
Of course, I wouldn't suspect Chief Zhang or his friends. That's why this is so strange. I still can't figure it out. It can't be Lin Hong, right? That's obviously impossible. It's too strange. Zheng Guangfu said helplessly. If I didn't have to leave Nanzhou in such a hurry, perhaps I could return to the hotel and investigate.
Your top priority now is to leave. I'll investigate this matter. Don't waste your time in Nanzhou. Zhang Qingyang waved his hand, determined to have Zheng Guangfu leave quickly.
Zheng Guangfu didn't refute Zhang Qingyang's words and fell silent again.
After about five or six minutes, Zheng Guangfu frowned and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something. After struggling for a while, Zheng Guangfu said: Chief Zhang, what do you think of Lin Hong?
What do you mean what do I think? Zhang Qingyang was startled and looked at Zheng Guangfu doubtfully.
Chief Zhang, let me make a bold guess. Do you think it's Lin Hong who did it? Zheng Guangfu voiced out his thoughts. Even Zheng Guangfu himself felt that this speculation was absurd.
How could it be? She wouldn't suspect Lin Hong of anyone. What good would it do her? Zhang Qingyang shook his head without thinking. In his opinion, Zheng Guangfu's speculation was simply impossible.
Of course, I also felt that it was impossible for Lin Hong. However, no one went into that private room. The number of people who could be suspected could be counted on one hand. Other than me and Lin Hong who had a meal with Chief Zhang in that private room, the others were Chief Zhang's friends. Since it was impossible for Chief Zhang's friends to be the culprit, the only suspects were me and Lin Hong. As for me, I wouldn't harm myself, right? Zheng Guangfu smiled bitterly. Moreover, Lin Hong was really ruthless. There was really nothing she didn't dare to do.
This had nothing to do with her ruthlessness. It was about whether she had a need to do so. What was her motive? Rather than suspecting Lin Hong, you might as well suspect the hotel staff. You said they were definitely reliable, but I don't think so. Zhang Qingyang retorted.
I really couldn't tell what Lin Hong's motive was. Zheng Guangfu shook his head helplessly.
Isn't that enough? Zhang Qingyang said. He didn't suspect Lin Hong because Lin Hong was Li Haocheng's woman. Zhang Qingyang didn't think that Lin Hong would do that because Lin Hong was on their side.
When the morning sun shone through the three-meter-tall floor-to-ceiling window, Li Haocheng opened his eyes slightly. He looked to the side and saw Lin Qing lying beside him. Li Haocheng was satisfied. Being able to conquer a woman like Lin Qing gave Li Haocheng a sense of achievement.
Looking at the phone on the bedside table, Li Haocheng remembered that his phone had been switched off for the whole night. He got up and took out a spare battery from his briefcase. Li Haocheng switched the battery on.
What was Zhang Qingyang doing? Why did he call me so many times? Li Haocheng turned on his phone and saw six missed calls. All of them were from Zhang Qingyang. Looking at Lin Qing who was sleeping soundly next to him, Li Haocheng hesitated for a moment before calling Zhang Qingyang back.
It was Mayor Li. Zhang Qingyang's face lit up when he saw that it was Li Haocheng. He quickly picked up the call.
What was going on? Why did he call me so many times? Li Haocheng said softly, afraid that he would wake Lin Qing up.
Mayor Li, something happened. The people from the Ministry of Public Security came to investigate Chief Zheng and detained him. I just got him from the Ministry. Zhang Qingyang briefly explained the situation.
Nonsense. Aren't you making a big deal out of this? Li Haocheng immediately scolded Zhang Qingyang when he heard that he was fighting with the people from the Ministry.
Mayor Li, if you didn't do this, the consequences would be even more serious. Zhang Qingyang smiled bitterly and explained to Li Haocheng. I didn't recognize their identities just now. I insisted that I didn't receive any notice from the higher-ups and said that their identities were fake. If the higher-ups wanted to question me, I could argue with them.
Why did Zheng Guangfu provoke the people from the Ministry for no reason? Li Haocheng had already quickly analyzed the pros and cons and didn't pursue the matter of Zhang Qingyang snatching people.
This matter is very strange. There were no signs at all. Now we are also in the dark. Zhang Qingyang told him his plan. Mayor Li, we want Chief Zheng to leave Nanzhou immediately. What do you think?
The further he goes, the better. Li Haocheng said unhappily. He heard such bad news as soon as he turned on his phone. His good mood for the day was ruined. He agreed with Zhang Qingyang's approach.
Mayor Li, how many days will it take for you to come back? Zhang Qingyang couldn't help but ask. Without Li Haocheng in the city, he felt a little uncertain.
