Detective: I, Cao Jianjun, started by arresting my brother-in-law.

"Don't think too much about other things. They're not a big deal. No matter who it is, if they break the law, they have to pay the price."

"You should also tell Comrade Cao Jianjun to investigate freely. No matter how much trouble Wang causes, I, Hu Huaqing, will take the blame for you."

"Even if the sky were to fall, it would hit me, Hu Huaqing, first."

Having said that, it's basically a reassurance.

This was the answer He Yong wanted, and he immediately smiled and said, "Okay, Director Hu, I'll go and tell Cao Jianjun right away."

"Remember, He Yong, you are the enforcers of the national law, and the national law is above all else."

Hu Huaqing, still not entirely at ease, reiterated: "As long as you have a clear conscience, no matter who you find, you must enforce the law strictly and show absolutely no leniency."

"clear."

After hanging up the phone, a weight was lifted from He Yong's heart.

For those of them who charge into battle, what they really fear is becoming cannon fodder.

That's why Cao Jianjun called He Yong to report, and He Yong called the provincial department for the same reason.

Now that the provincial department head has given his assurance, they can focus wholeheartedly and without any scruples when it comes to carrying out their duties.

He Yong breathed a heavy sigh of relief, dialed Cao Jianjun's number, and relayed Hu Huaqing's words.

After receiving He Yong's call, Cao Jianjun felt much more confident.

With the top official of the Shandong Provincial Department giving his assurance, what's there to be afraid of?

He shoved his phone into his pocket, turned around, saw Zhou Xun's expectant gaze, and smiled.

"How to say?"

Zhou Xun, his fingers gripping the cigarette butt, asked impatiently.

"Director Hu told us to investigate freely and arrest those who should be arrested..."

As soon as Cao Jianjun spoke, Zhou Xun smiled with satisfaction: "Damn it, I want to go too."

"If you don't want Lao Guan and I to visit your grave at the cemetery next year, then you should just focus on recovering from your injury."

Cao Jianjun waved and left.

Back in Ando's hospital room, a new round of interrogation began.

The information he had just received was so overwhelming that it disrupted all his pre-planned strategies. Now, after readjusting, he's going to try again.

An Teng seemed surprised by Cao Jianjun's return, leaning against the hospital bed with a hint of astonishment in his eyes.

"Looks like they've got the imperial sword?"

They weren't fools; after a moment's thought, Ando guessed the gist of it.

"almost."

Cao Jianjun, accompanied by the two officers from the special task force, sat imposingly in front of the hospital bed.

"Let's continue..."

"Row."

Ando didn't care at all, and nodded calmly: "What else do you want to know?"

"Nanshan Military Region, who is your direct superior in the arms trafficking case?"

"Equipment Department, Wang Wen, 260 Mountain".

"Who else?"

"Qin Yiming from the Logistics Department."

"Any more?"

Cao Jianjun was completely unceremonious, recording each name as he heard an answer.

"Isn't this enough?"

An Teng laughed in surprise: "Officer Cao, who gave you this imperial edict? How dare you be so bold?"

"National law".

Cao Jianjun smiled neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Is this enough?"

“Enough…” Ando laughed too: “Enough showing off!”

"Cut the nonsense."

Cao Jianjun's smile vanished: "Continue."

"Nothing."

Ando shrugged this time: "Selling arms is inherently extremely dangerous. How many people do you think they'll let me know about?"

"OK!"

Cao Jianjun nodded: "Where's the evidence? I can't just believe you based on your empty words about a few people."

“I have a place to stay in Jingang, and there is a floorboard under the headboard of my bed.”

gradually.

Ando's tone calmed down: "There's an iron box under the floorboards. Inside are a list of the arms sales I've been involved in over the years, as well as contact records and accounting records."

"If you're lucky, you'll find everything you want in there."

Cao Jianjun was fairly satisfied with these answers.

"Tell me the specific details."

Changing the subject, Cao Jianjun continued, "When did it start? How were the (AEFC) weapons sold? Is it related to the Tianjin Port Municipal Bureau?"

Six years ago.

Ando looked up expressionlessly at the ceiling of the ward and began to reminisce about the past.

"I received orders from Director Wang to carry out a mission."

"I was responsible for escorting a batch of military supplies. Because they were wrapped in canvas, I didn't check them carefully."

"At 2 a.m., I arrived at the Tianjin Port North Suburb Wharf as instructed..."

"When we arrived at the destination, we found out that the people in charge of making contact were a group of southerners."

"What I'm escorting isn't military supplies, but a batch of weapons that have been phased out by the Nanshan Military Region."

"It's basically Type 81 rifles, Type 56 grenades, and some substandard hand grenades."

"But by the time I found out, it was too late to change anything. From that moment on, I was drawn into it by them."

At this point, Ando chuckled self-deprecatingly and looked at Cao Jianjun, saying, "So, Cao Jianjun, you are still very lucky."

"In this world, not everyone can realize their ideals with integrity and righteousness."

Cao Jianjun asked noncommittally, "How did you get in touch with the Tianjin Port Municipal Public Security Bureau?"

"Shi Guangling".

Without hesitation, An Teng named Shi Guangling directly: "Back then, Shi Guangling was the political director of the Changfeng branch."

"I don't know how the higher-ups contacted the Changfeng branch; I only know that I obeyed their orders."

"The person in charge of liaising with me was Ye Fangzhou from the Changfeng branch..."

"At that time, thanks to Guan Hongfeng, the Changfeng branch had a case-solving rate that was close to the highest in the city, and seized a large number of physical evidence and firearms."

"With the leads of Shi Guangling and Ye Fangzhou, all the physical evidence and firearms collected by the Changfeng Branch will be sold together with our Nanshan Military Region."

"Six years have passed, and Shi Guangling has been promoted from the Changfeng Branch to the Deputy Director of the Municipal Bureau."

"Cao Jianjun, don't you find this ridiculous?"

By this point, Ando had lost the carefree air he had when he was barefoot.

When recounting the various cases he was involved in, his words always carried a hint of complaint about the state of the world.

"Besides these, what other departments are there at the Tianjin Port Municipal Public Security Bureau?"

Cao Jianjun, uninterested in anything outside the case, continued to press, "Who else?"

"I only know Han Bin from the Harbor Detachment, but he only joined recently."

An Teng said calmly, "Wu Lingling was originally a corrupt cop in the Changfeng branch, just like Ye Fangzhou. Wu Lingling died because she developed feelings for Guan Hongfeng."

"Two years ago, when Guan Hongfeng was investigating Sister Xia's arms smuggling case, it had actually been discovered."

"At the time, Guan Hongfeng thought he had the victory in his grasp and was afraid that Sister Xia and the others would run away, so he took Wu Lingling and the other two with him, just like he wanted to capture Sister Xia."

"As a result, Wu Lingling, being both a corrupt cop and emotionally inclined towards Guan Hongfeng, was shot by Guan Hongfeng in the chaotic environment..."

"She wasn't killed at the time, but Sister Xia had long wanted to get rid of Wu Lingling."

"Wu Lingling's death led her biological father, Han Songge, to believe that Guan Hongfeng was responsible."

"After that, Han Songge turned his hatred towards Guan Hongfeng, which is why Han Songge later planned the February 2.13th incident."

"Han Songge is a well-known criminal investigation expert in China. The murder and annihilation case he planned is naturally not something that the Changfeng branch, with its lowly level of expertise, could solve."
