Police Chief's Anti-Organized Crime Storm

"Alright, Qingshan, I have something else to attend to. Let's leave the matter of Lü Dayong here for now. I will give you an answer to this matter. Don't worry, I'll say it again: we will not wrong a good comrade, nor will we let any comrade with problems go unpunished."

"Secretary..." Yan Qingshan wanted to say something, but Ma Guoliang glanced at him, his eyes suddenly turning cold. Yan Qingshan's heart skipped a beat. It seemed he had overestimated Ma Guoliang. For the sake of Lü Dayong, the other party was actually resorting to delaying tactics. That document definitely wasn't in Ma Guoliang's hands; it was likely in Liu Yixiong's possession. It seemed he really hadn't...

Seeing that Ma Guoliang was no longer paying attention to him, Yan Qingshan had no choice but to leave the office and return to his own. He quickly dialed Lin Ying's number: "Hello, Lin Ying, things are as you expected. Secretary Ma Guoliang has suppressed Lü Dayong's case, so we cannot put Lü Dayong under investigation for the time being."

"Understood, Secretary Yan, you did a good job. However, Ma Guoliang and Liu Yixiong will definitely not let this matter go. Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, Liu Yixiong will definitely take the materials to Lü Dayong."

"Huh? What should we do then?" This is not a good thing. If Lü Dayong finds out, will he run away?

"That's exactly what I wanted—for him to be anxious. Lu Dayong may seem reckless and impulsive, but he actually has a lot of ulterior motives. I've investigated his background, and he might be involved in the death of the Second County Magistrate, Ji Xiaoqing."

"What?" Yan Qingshan was startled. Was it related to County Magistrate Ji's death? Lü Dayong? Wasn't County Magistrate Ji supposed to have died by accidental drowning? Could it be, as Lin Ying said, that County Magistrate Ji didn't actually drown?

Yan Qingshan's heart immediately jumped into his throat.

"Secretary Yan, you need to cooperate with me and keep urging Ma Guoliang to get the information he has, putting pressure on him to urge Liu Yixiong. As long as Liu Yixiong goes to Lü Dayong, he will definitely panic." Lü Dayong doesn't have the same mental fortitude as Li Jianmin.

"Don't worry, Director Lin, I will definitely cooperate with your work. However, all of Lü Dayong's information is in Ma Guoliang's hands. If he destroys the information, it will be troublesome."

"Don't worry, I have backups of the data, and the data you gave him is just a copy, so there's nothing to worry about."

Yan Qingshan was overjoyed and quickly nodded vigorously.

The news of Lin Ying's return to the county public security bureau spread like wildfire, and almost everyone wanted to know what the new police chief had been busy with lately. Just now, the announcement regarding the arrest of Li Jianmin was released, and many people did not expect that the announcement would come so timely.

Chen Zhengyang was very excited. He wanted to see Lin Ying and tell her his thoughts. He also wanted to tell her that he was actually a good policeman. Over the years, because he refused to go along with the corrupt practices, he was ostracized and framed, but he never said a word. Now, he had finally waited for a strong leader to set things right.

After much deliberation, Chen Zhengyang knocked on Lin Ying's office door. *Knock...knock knock...*

"Come in." Lin Ying's voice rang out. Chen Zhengyang pushed the door open and entered. With a creak, Lin Ying looked up and saw a young man in a police uniform walk in.

"7527 Chen Zhengyang reporting for duty." With a snap, Chen Zhengyang gave a standard military salute; police officers are soldiers too.

"7527? Chen Zhengyang?" Lin Ying looked up and glanced at the other person. This person seemed to be someone Lu Xiujuan had mentioned before. She curiously sized him up for a few moments. It was the first time Chen Zhengyang had seen Lin Ying so closely, so he was inevitably a little nervous.

"Yes." Chen Zhengyang was surprised that Lin Ying remembered his number, and he was somewhat excited.

"Did you need something?" Lin Ying knew that in the entire police station, no more than one person would dare to walk into this office, but this young man was quite bold.

"Yes, there are some things I'd like to tell you." Chen Zhengyang glanced at Lin Ying and subconsciously straightened up.

"Aren't you afraid?" Lin Ying suddenly asked, her tone suggestive.

Chen Zhengyang paused, then mustered his courage to look at Lin Ying again, his heart trembling. Was he afraid? Yes, of course he was. But he was even more afraid that he would regret it in the future. He was even more afraid that a hundred years later, in the afterlife, he wouldn't be able to face Xiao Yuanzi. He was even more afraid that after he died, he wouldn't have the face to see his police academy teachers.

He is a policeman, a people's policeman!!!

Chen Zhengyang took a deep breath, slowly raised his head, and looked at Lin Ying with a firm yet sharp gaze: "I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid that Director Lin won't come to the office tomorrow."

Lin Ying smiled. This young man is interesting.

"Speak, what do you want?" Lin Ying glanced at Chen Zhengyang. She didn't understand why this young man would choose to come to her now when Liu Yixiong's men were everywhere in the bureau. Wasn't he afraid of Liu Yixiong's revenge?

"Director Lin, I wonder if you have time? I'd like to take you to meet someone." Chen Zhengyang looked at Lin Ying, his expression somewhat nervous. He had already promised her, and this matter had been going on for so many years; that woman had waited for so many years.

Lin Ying frowned, looking at Chen Zhengyang with some confusion: "Who are you meeting? Where?"

"I can't tell you who I'm meeting while I'm out, but rest assured, this person will definitely help you solve County Magistrate Ji's case."

"County Chief Ji's case? What do you mean?" Lin Ying glanced at Chen Zhengyang with feigned incomprehension, but her heart was churning. Finally, someone had mentioned Ji Xiaoqing's death.

"You must want to know how County Magistrate Ji died, right?" Chen Zhengyang looked at Lin Ying with a glimmer of hope. He really hoped that Lin Ying could go see that woman right away. At least, the other woman was still free for now. Maybe, after a while, things might change.

Lin Ying frowned, her gaze towards Chen Zhengyang filled with doubt: "You mean County Chief Ji didn't die from an accidental drowning?"

"Of course not." Chen Zhengyang's answer surprised Lin Ying. Although she had some suspicions about Ji Xiaoqing's death, there was no evidence to prove that there was anything wrong with Ji Xiaoqing's death. How could Chen Zhengyang be so sure?

"What do you know? Tell me." Lin Ying's gaze held a hint of inquiry.

"Director Lin, I can't tell you right now. Besides, I only know that County Magistrate Ji's death was suspicious, but some people know the real cause of her death."

"What?" Lin Ying's head buzzed, and she looked at the young policeman in front of her in disbelief. Did someone know the real cause of Ji Xiaoqing's death? Could it be that Ji Xiaoqing really didn't die from an accidental drowning?

Her heart was pounding. She longed to see that person immediately, but could she really trust Chen Zhengyang?
