Reborn as a Police Officer in India

Chapter 181 Sharing the Firepower
"Director, please go ahead." Roton took a deep breath and said.

"You have such great power in this case, don't you have any ideas?" Pirando asked instead of saying it directly.

"Director, I've thought about it. I think the higher-ups hope I can play a role." Roton said.

"Very good, since you can think of this, my next words will be much simpler." Pirando said with a smile.

He knew that Rotten was very smart and it was impossible for him not to see what was going on.

An intern, originally just a small inspector, how could he be given real power under normal circumstances?
It would have been nice if I had let you participate or just watch.

Now this power is not small, and it can even influence the direction of the investigation of this case.

After all, Roton represents the CBI headquarters this time and has the right to report directly to the director of the headquarters. This is extremely crucial to the direction of the case.

"The Prime Minister has his intentions involved," Pirando continued, "so in this case, you need to help Ashok mitigate his guilt."

Luoton thought to himself that it was indeed so.

Therefore, my position is definitely on the side of the Congress Party, and this is the purpose of the CBI headquarters transferring me here.

"Director, I wonder if there is a standard for this reduction?" asked Roton.

It is not so easy to operate here, after all, the Ashok incident is quite a big deal.

If Ashok is let off easily, it will probably be impossible to quell the public's doubts and anger.

If he makes a mistake, the consequences in the future will be even more serious, and he cannot afford it.

"Don't worry, we won't make things difficult for you," Pirando said. "If your request is truly outrageous, you won't be able to fulfill it even if we give it to you. The message from above is that Ashokko's dismissal is sufficient, and there's no need for further prosecution. You can proceed according to this standard."

Rawdon pondered for a moment.

The higher-ups informed Shiva Nandan about this matter, probably because they knew that Shiva and Ashok had a good relationship.

Shiva, the Mumbai Police Chief, must be avoiding suspicion now and has not contacted me directly.

That's why he asked Pirando to contact him. After all, he and Pirando have a close relationship, so it would be most appropriate for Pirando to do it.

Besides, Pirando contacting him actually represented his intention.

Rodon understood all this. Shiva was definitely willing to help Ashok. The last time he extended his detention was to help Ashok.

"Roden, this is certainly a difficult thing, but I think you can give it a try, or even work hard at it," Pirando added. "It will be very beneficial for your future."

Of course, Roton understood this. No matter what, the Congress Party still had several years left in power.

In other words, at this time, the Indian political arena was still basically dominated by the Congress Party.

Although he knew the future course of history and knew that Laoxian's People's Party would rise, he still wanted to grab as many benefits as possible before they came to power.

This is the only way to get yourself to a higher position.

Otherwise, even if the People's Party comes to power, if I don't have enough position, how will the People's Party care about me?

Not to mention having any relationship with the old immortal.

Everything depends on strength and status.

As long as you have enough power, they will come to you and everyone can exchange various interests.

If this kind of thing is handled well, it is indeed possible to avoid offending both sides.

But this is definitely difficult, and Roton has no choice but to do it now.

If he failed to handle this matter well, he would directly offend the Congress Party.

This is even the Prime Minister's intention, and we have to make them satisfied no matter what.

This is not a question of taking sides. I am just a small person now and cannot control my own destiny.

You can only try your best to gain the greatest benefit for yourself here.

"I understand, Chief," Rawdon replied. "I'll do my best."

The Congress Party has obviously made a compromise, which is to remove Ashok from the position of Chief Minister.

Their next move was to ensure that Ashok would not be prosecuted and sentenced.

Roton thought this was still possible.

"Director, I have an idea. I wonder if you could mention it to the people above you." Roton said again.

"You say," said Pirando.

"The opposition is taking this matter very seriously and is keeping a close eye on it. They want to convict Ashok and hope to send him to jail. So if the Congress wants to satisfy them, I think it will have to pay a higher price," said Roden.

"Rotten, the higher-ups asked you to come here to help reduce the losses, but that's not what you're thinking," Pirando said. "If that's the case, it won't be good for your future."

Pirando thought that Rotun was a little scared and retreated, which was not a good thing for Rotun.

"That's not what I meant, Chief," Roden explained. "If Ashok is simply dismissed and nothing is done, the BJP will definitely continue to pursue him. It will be difficult for both the CBI and the government to step down. I'm afraid this case won't be closed. I think it's best to conclude it quickly, which will benefit the Congress Party. Aren't there some discordant elements within the Congress Party? I think we can share the blame with others in exchange for Ashok not being sentenced."

"You mean?" Pirando thought, "Rakiti Nair?"

Everyone knows about the open and covert struggles between Rajiti and Ashok. The fights were a bit exaggerated some time ago, leaving the onlookers dumbfounded.

Because both sides were exposing each other's negative information. If the top leaders of the Congress Party had not come forward to contact the two of them, they would have restrained themselves a little.

Otherwise, the effect would be absolutely devastating.

It can be said that the top leadership of the Congress Party is very dissatisfied with Rajiti's move this time.

Although Ashok is also responsible, Rajiti is clearly the one with more responsibility.

In addition, Ashok's status is higher than Raj's, so Rajiti's position within the Congress Party is not optimistic.

Therefore, Pirandu felt that if Raj proposed to help Ashok share the firepower, the top leaders of the Congress Party could definitely consider it.

"Director, as far as I know, Rajiti has a lot of negative information when he was the state finance minister. And it's impossible that Rajiti has no connection with Ashok's 'Adarsh ​​Housing Project'. And given Rajiti's current situation, he will definitely become a target of attack by the opposition. It would be better..."

Before Rotun could finish, Pirando interrupted, "So we can put a lot of the blame for Ashok's crimes on Lajiti? Well, that's a good idea."

Rajiti's importance and network within the Congress Party are naturally not as great as Ashok's.

The people above will protect Ashok in every possible way, but they may not protect Rajiti. In addition, Rajiti's various outrageous actions during this period have disgusted the top management.

If Rajiti is exchanged for Ashok, it is very feasible.

Because Ragiti also has a lot of things to do, and he has nothing to do now.

That is because the opposition's main firepower is now on Ashok. Once Ashok is finished, it is obvious that Rajiti will not be able to escape either.

Rather than sacrificing two, it is better to sacrifice one completely and save one.

It is very clear how to choose here.

"Roden, you don't have any selfish motives, do you?" Pirando asked again. "This?"

"Haha, it doesn't matter whether it is or not." Pirando laughed.

He thought that Rotun's idea was very good and he could convey this idea himself.

"Actually, there is some connection. After all, his grandson made me very unhappy last time." Roton admitted.

Rotun was actually targeting Rajiti, and Hengye was just a by-product.

After all, Rajiti wanted to kill him, and Hengye wanted to take Itas's life, but at least he hadn't made Roton want to kill him yet.

However, if these two are combined, Rotten wouldn't mind killing them all.

Since becoming the assistant investigation commissioner, Rotten has had a lot of ideas, mainly targeting Ragetti and Freese.

He now has some confidence.

Especially when it is known that the Congress Party wants to protect Ashok, the possibility of Rajiti being sacrificed is very high.

"Don't worry," Pirando said with a smile. "As long as Lagiti is liquidated, you can take whatever revenge you want. His grandson has done a lot of bad things too. He'll be in prison and can be easily killed. I'll have people take care of all this, so you don't have to worry at all."

"Thank you, Chief." Luo Dun thanked.

About this, Rotten had no doubt at all.

Of course, as the director of a special district, Pirando has this ability.

As long as Rajiti loses power, too many people will cause trouble for him.

Even Ragiti could be secretly killed, let alone one of his grandsons.

When that time really comes, no one will care if you die.

"However, all of this will have to wait until I pass on this plan and the people above me agree to it," Pirando said. "Any other questions?"

"Director, do you know Director Vides Jia?" asked Roton.

Now that Vides and I are working together, if I can get to know each other a little better, such as each other's personality and interests, it will definitely be helpful for our future interactions.

"I do know a little," Pirandu said with a smile. "The CBI branch director's ability is unquestionable. He's handled many major cases. Personally, he's quite greedy for money and, of course, has a strong desire for power. A few years ago, he competed for the position of CBI Deputy Director, but ultimately lost. Later, he came here to serve as branch director. Although our state has a developed economy, his power is still far less than that of the Deputy Director at CBI headquarters. This has always made him feel resentful."

Greedy for money?

This is nothing, it's perfectly normal.

In India, which of these officials is not in it for money?

As for the desire for power, it is also normal.

Who doesn’t want to climb up?

The higher you climb, the more power you gain.

"Director, he should have a good relationship with the People's Party or other opposition parties, right?" Roton thought for a while and asked.

Since the CBI director does not trust Vedras very much, it can basically be concluded that Vedras is unlikely to be a member of the Congress Party.

If he was a member of the Congress Party, the CBI director would not have to give him special instructions, and the Congress Party would not have to find someone to tell him these things through Shiva and then to Pirandu.

"That's right." Pirando certainly knew what Rotten was trying to say. "Director Vides has good relations with some high-ranking officials in the People's Party. Needless to say, you can guess that the People's Party must have contacted him. Although he won't go too far, he will definitely cause maximum trouble for Ashok within the scope of his authority. So, this is also an important reason why the higher-ups sent you here."

"Then we will ask Lalajiti and some other members of the Congress Party to help Ashok share the firepower. If we want to succeed, we need to do some work on Director Jia. If he objects, this will be difficult to accomplish." Roton frowned.

"Indeed." Pirando sighed, "Wait for news from me before considering the next plan."

"Okay, Director."

After hanging up the phone, Rawdon thought quickly.

He must capture Rajiti this time. If he misses it, he can't really wait for a few more years until he is put in jail by the opposition.

There is still some time gap during this period, and Rotun is a little worried. What if the old man suddenly has a seizure and wants to kill him?
So just in case, if I don't deal with him now while I still have the power, when will I deal with him?

But it is obviously not that simple, and we have to coordinate the relationships between multiple forces.

I don’t know whether the Congress Party will agree, and as for Vidush Jha, how can I convince him?
Next, Roden began to intervene in Ashok's case as an assistant investigating commissioner.

As for the person involved, Ashok, it is definitely necessary to question him in person.

Vides took charge personally and showed great respect to Ashok, while Rotten listened in on the sidelines.

Looking at the way Vides questioned Ashok, Roton sighed in his heart.

Ashok, the former Chief Minister of Maharashtra, is now sitting opposite him. He no longer has the aura of the former Chief Minister.

Ashok was finally removed from the post of Chief Minister a few days ago and the removal procedure was completed.

In addition to the inquiries against Ashok, a number of MPs and ministers, most of whom are members of the Congress Party, are also being questioned.

Some have been directly imprisoned.

Of course, a figure like Ashokko, he was released on bail.

Vides still gave him face.

If he really wanted to deny bail to Ashok, he could actually do so.

This made Roton think, it seems that although Vides leans towards the People's Party, he should not act completely according to the People's Party's wishes.

The People's Party's message is very clear, they want Ashok to be sentenced.

The sentencing of an important member of the Congress Party and former Chief Minister of Maharashtra is definitely a huge blow to the Congress Party.

At that time, the BJP can publicize Ashok's shortcomings and then put all the blame on the Congress Party.

This kind of attack between parties will use various tactics. Throwing mud at others and exaggerating the incident are just child's play. Frame-ups and even assassinations are also possible. Kill all your competitors and those candidates who pose a greater threat, no matter if there are only a few or dozens of them. Once they are all dead and only he is left, then won't his position be secure?
For the sake of power, people will do anything.

Vides' current attitude is actually quite normal. He may lean towards the People's Party in some areas, but he definitely has a bottom line.

This made Luoton happy.

As long as he is not a stubborn person, there is a way to convince him.

It's nothing more than an exchange of interests.

As long as the benefits are big enough, these things can be done.

Pirandu has responded to Roden, saying that the Congress Party agreed to sacrifice some people, such as Rajiti, as long as the Ashok issue ends here.

With the attitude of the Congress Party, Roton felt that he could test Vides.
