Transmigrated into a female-oriented novel, and put an end to the domineering CEOs all over the city

The next day, Lu Jingxiu arrived at the Municipal Bureau early in the morning.

After finishing the meeting, Hong Zhan saw the message Lu Jingxiu had sent him on his phone and immediately had a young policeman bring Lu Jingxiu to his office.

Looking at Lu Jingxiu as he entered, his face was very serious.

This Mr. Lu contacted him a total of three times: once in person and twice via WeChat.

The two incidents on WeChat were the school kidnapping case and the Huang Family Manor kidnapping case.

The time they came to our door was even more serious; it was an infiltration by foreign criminal gangs. The case is still being investigated, and it has implicated a whole string of people. The entire municipal bureau is working themselves to the bone.

This is Lu Jingxiu's second visit.

Does it need further explanation how valuable this is?

To put it bluntly, Lu Jingxiu sitting in his office made his blood pressure rise even higher than the inspection team.

Therefore, he skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the point: "Young Master Lu, what important intelligence do you have this time?"

He was mentally prepared.

Come on, is it a transnational drug cartel? Or terrorists lurking in the shadows? Or is it some fool trying to make a big splash in the market again?

Tell me, even if Hong Zhan were to die from exhaustion at this desk today, he would still have to defuse the mines.

Just as Director Xue said, it's always better to defuse a minefield in advance than to step on one unexpectedly.

Looking at the serious-looking police officer in front of him, Lu Jingxiu felt a little embarrassed.

Strictly speaking, his visit this time wasn't for any earth-shattering major case, but rather for Lin Yutang's private matter.

After careful consideration last night, he still felt that instead of resorting to drastic measures to confront Lin Yutang head-on, it would be better to go through internal channels and handle the matter gently if possible.

If all else fails, then go back to your own father and his gang.

Go through the municipal party committee, the municipal government, the discipline inspection commission, the political and legal affairs commission, the procuratorate, and the standing committee of the municipal people's congress... layer by layer, there's always a way.

"Director Hong, there's something I think you should know." Lu Jingxiu smiled, his tone calm, "The mastermind behind last night's kidnapping at Huang's Manor is Mo Yan."

Hong Zhan nodded slightly, signaling him to continue. The Municipal Bureau had already preliminarily confirmed this conclusion last night.

"Mo Yan's hiding place was actually discovered by Lin Yutang, a police officer from the East Suburbs Branch, before yesterday evening."

"After confirming the location, she immediately reported to her squadron leader, Gao Shan."

He paused, giving Hong Zhan some time to process what he had said, before continuing:

"When she reported, Mo Yan might not have been evacuated yet, but the company commander's reaction... well, it was rather slow."

"Not only did he fail to report it in a timely manner, but he also failed to apply for a search and took no action whatsoever. By the time he finally decided to take action, Mo Yan had already escaped."

"And what happened? Last night they only managed to rescue a young woman who had been imprisoned for several days from the manor's basement."

"It's good that the person has been rescued; it's a great relief. But the main culprit, Mo Yan, has completely disappeared without a trace."

Hong Zhan frowned.

That's not what he said in the report last night.

The report stated that "after high-altitude analysis, clues were discovered, a decisive action was taken, and the rescue was successful," and the timeline was also blurred.

Lu Jingxiu's smile remained unchanged as he continued:

"Then, when the squadron leader reported this matter to his superiors, he claimed that it was a clue he had personally analyzed and discovered, and Lin Yutang's name never appeared in the report from beginning to end."

"Now, Lin Yutang wants to continue following this lead and bring the person back as soon as possible. However, she has been verbally suspended by the squad leader without any written document or approval signature."

"It was just a matter of two sentences. Tell her to go home, reflect on her actions, and hand over all her documents and equipment."

Hong Zhan's expression finally turned ugly.

He knew last night that the imprisoned woman had been rescued from Mo Yan Manor.

At the meeting just now, he also specifically praised the East Suburbs Branch and the squadron leader Gao Shan, who reacted quickly and acted decisively, saying that they were typical examples of "taking initiative and daring to take responsibility".

Now, Lu Jingxiu tells him that the credit doesn't belong to Gao Shan at all, but to a policewoman named Lin Yutang.

The squad leader he praised not only delayed handling the case, allowing the main culprit to escape, but also took credit for the crime and kicked the policewoman who actually discovered the clue out of the report.

That wasn't all. When the policewoman tried to continue the investigation, he actually suspended her from duty!

This is a serious dereliction of duty involving deceiving superiors, suppressing subordinates, missing opportunities, and allowing the ringleaders of organized crime to escape!

Hong Zhan's mind raced, and his expression softened slightly. He nodded slightly to Lu Jingxiu: "Young Master Lu, I will have someone verify the matter you raised."

"If true, those that need to be corrected will be corrected, and those that need to be dealt with will be dealt with; there will be absolutely no leniency."

He did not make a promise in front of Lu Jingxiu, but he made it clear that he would personally take charge.

Lu Jingxiu nodded. Some things are better left unsaid.

He believed that the bureau chief would never protect his subordinates.

"Director Hong, I came here this morning specifically for this matter." Lu Jingxiu gave a polite smile. "Then please go ahead with your work; I won't bother you any longer."

After saying that, he turned and left the office, gently closing the door behind him.

After Lu Jingxiu left, Hong Zhan's face suddenly darkened.

He knew that Lu Jingxiu wouldn't speak without reason, and what he said was most likely true.

Although Lu Jingxiu was simply recounting an ordinary matter to him the whole time, he didn't mention his father or anything like that.

But Hong Zhan knew perfectly well that this was Lu Jingxiu showing him goodwill, giving him a way out, and an opportunity to handle things internally.

If he doesn't want to manage it or can't manage it, then other departments will naturally take over for him.

At that point, the nature of the matter will change.

Therefore, he had to pin all the blame on the East Suburbs Branch before Lu Jingxiu could report the matter to other departments, and he absolutely could not let the fire spread to him.

With that thought in mind, he no longer hesitated and immediately picked up the landline on the table and dialed the number of Xu Jie, the director of the East Suburbs Branch.

The call was answered quickly.

Hong Zhan said in a serious tone, "I am Hong Zhan, Xu Jie. I need to verify something with you."

Xu Jie's heart skipped a beat. When Hong Zhan addressed him by his first name in such a tone, it usually meant something bad was going on.

"You said, Director Hong." He immediately sat up straight.

Hong Zhan said, "Regarding the kidnapping case at Huang Family Manor, the materials submitted by your branch office say that it was your squad leader Gao Shan who first discovered Mo Yan's hiding place, and he also led the rescue team, right?"

Xu Jie paused for a moment, quickly reviewing the materials submitted last night in his mind; that was indeed how it was written.

But there must be something wrong with Hong Zhan asking that question.
