Reaching the Pinnacle: Starting from Joining the Discipline Inspection Commission

finally come.

Upon seeing this message, a look of excitement flashed across Wang Feng's face, as if he had finally seen the light after the clouds had parted.

Once the special task force arrives, many of the current constraints will be completely broken.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing the excitement flash across Wang Feng's face, Xu Tian asked.

"Director Lü and his team will arrive tomorrow morning."

Wang Feng handed his phone to Xu Tian, ​​his eyes gleaming with an unknown light.

"All the interrogations and evidence gathering tonight must be completed before dawn. We cannot leave the opposing side any opportunity to destroy evidence, collude, or recant their testimony..."

Xu Tian took the phone and glanced at it. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes, but he quickly frowned again.

"I wonder how many people know about the arrival of the special task force?"

Wang Feng frowned upon hearing this.

Xu Tian is right.

Although the news that the special task force will arrive first thing tomorrow morning is unlikely to spread widely, those who need to know will still find out.

"I'm not worried about anything else... I'm just afraid that an insider will leak this information... If that happens, Lin Yao will most likely run away overnight or destroy all the ledgers and evidence after he finds out."

Hearing Xu Tian say this, Wang Feng frowned, a bad feeling creeping into his heart.

Xu Tian's words hit the nail on the head regarding his concerns.

The events that have unfolded tonight seem to confirm the truth of this statement.

Whether it was Secretary Guo being turned or someone within the hospital providing cover for the female assassin, it's enough to show that Lin Yao's informants have infiltrated many key positions.

Therefore, they still cannot let their guard down... If the city gate catches fire... the consequences would be unimaginable.

"In that case, then... a dual deployment!" Wang Feng thought for a moment and quickly came up with a solution.

"First, we are keeping the news of the upcoming arrival of our special task force secret... Only you and I are allowed to know this, and not a single word may be revealed to anyone else."

"We can't control what others do, but at the very least, we must ensure absolute security within our own ranks!"

Xu Tian nodded upon hearing this.

"Second, immediately increase police presence at all entrances and exits, highway exits, and national and provincial highways throughout the county, conduct strict checks, and keep a close watch on Lin Yao and his core associates to prevent them from learning of the situation in advance and leaving the county!"

"Okay, let's do it your way!"

After listening, Xu Tian thought for a moment... then took out his walkie-talkie and quickly issued each instruction.

The beeping of the monitoring equipment in the ward was particularly clear in the quiet of the night, reaching the ears of the two men and making their expressions somewhat solemn.

Wang Feng and Xu Tian stood outside the ward, watching with complicated expressions.

Through the glass window, you could see Zhou Qingjun still unconscious on the hospital bed, his pale face devoid of color, and his injured arm wrapped tightly in thick gauze.

Looking at this scene, Wang Feng couldn't imagine how horrific it must have been.

But he could foresee that if anything went wrong tonight, Zhou Qingjun would never wake up again.

Thinking of this, Wang Feng's fists clenched silently, a cold glint flashing deep in his eyes...

Lin Yao had been entrenched in Tianlong County for many years. Relying on the protection of his backers, he disregarded human life, bribed and corrupted public officials, and turned the area into a chaotic mess.

It's unbelievable that such a person is a model town mayor and a model grassroots cadre... It's utterly ridiculous.

If this gets out... hmph, he can't even imagine how much public opinion it will cause.

But that's precisely why...

Wang Feng had a vague premonition... perhaps the higher-ups wouldn't let this matter be exposed to the end, because if they did, no one could withstand the resulting public outcry.

perhaps…

Wang Feng's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he had realized something... He turned to look at Xu Tian.

"How's the interrogation of Secretary Guo going?"

"The interrogation has begun, but his emotions remain very unstable. He not only pretends to be confused, but also repeatedly uses the safety of his family as an excuse, saying that he is being threatened... As for other things... he has consistently refused to reveal any more substantial information about his dealings with Zheng Dongliang."

Upon hearing this, Xu Tian immediately made a phone call. A few minutes later, he looked at Wang Feng and spoke in a deep voice.

Wang Feng nodded.

In his view, Secretary Guo's actions were the most correct choice imaginable.

After all, this is only the beginning; what if there's still a glimmer of hope?

"But don't worry... the interrogators are all veterans... they know very well what the most appropriate course of action is in this situation..."

"They are gradually breaking down his psychological defenses, but..."

"What's wrong?"

Wang Feng looked at Xu Tian, ​​signaling him to continue.

"I'm worried that the reason Secretary Guo isn't saying anything might be because his wife and children are being controlled... so..."

Hearing Xu Tian say this, Wang Feng nodded; this was indeed a difficult point.

He pondered for a moment.

"In this way, we can also proceed on two fronts simultaneously..."

"First, work on his mindset, explain the pros and cons... let him choose... whether to go down a path of no return or confess before things are far from over, this will reduce his liability!"

"At the same time, send some people to check on his wife and children... check if there are any suspicious people around... even if there aren't, make some noise... understand?"

Xu Tian listened thoughtfully... After a few seconds, he understood Wang Feng's unspoken meaning.

He chuckled, a sly smile spreading across his face…

"I will immediately pass this 'instruction' to the interrogation room..."

After saying that, he prepared to turn around and walk to the other side...

I felt an inexplicable sense of approval for Wang Feng… He wasn't a saint, so special times call for special measures… Sometimes we don't do things because we're afraid… But now that Wang Feng has spoken up, it doesn't matter anymore…

Just then…

A police officer on duty hurried over, his face showing a mixture of urgency and complexity.

"Director Xu, Mayor Wang, there's new information!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Feng and Xu Tian simultaneously looked at each other.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

After hearing this, the police officer calmed down.

"While reviewing the hospital's personnel registration records for tonight, we discovered that the female assassin posing as a nurse had received a brief message from someone before she committed the crime..."

"It was this person who told the female assassin, Director Zhou, the location of his hospital room, as well as the time of the security patrol changeover tonight."

Upon hearing this, both Xu Tian and Wang Feng's pupils contracted.

"Who is it?"

"We don't know who it is... but we've tracked down their signal source..."

"According to the display... the signal source for sending the message originated from the government compound!"

boom!

Wang Feng and Xu Tian's expressions instantly turned gloomy upon hearing this.

County government compound!

This means that, besides Secretary Guo, there is another ticking time bomb beside Zheng Dongliang.

Or rather...

He himself was the ticking time bomb!

"It seems things are much more complicated than we imagined..." Wang Feng said in a somber tone. "Lin Yao's circle is even more complicated than we thought."

Just as the two of them were looking solemn.

Wang Feng's phone vibrated again, not with a text message, but with an unfamiliar local landline call.

He glanced at the time; it was 2 a.m.

The phone is ringing at this hour…

Something seems unusual…
