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

"You can't find anything by checking his friends?" He took a sip of red wine, his tone calm, but a chill was creeping into his eyes.

"No, a police officer who was in contact with us was also taken away by the city police after checking on his friend's information." The assistant shook his head, his face tense.

"I had people try a few more times, and others contacted four or five police officers, but the result was the same. They said that this person's information access level was very high and they couldn't find anything. Then these police officers were taken away by the Municipal Bureau's Supervision Detachment for investigation one after another."

At this point, the assistant's expression was already on the verge of collapse.

"Mr. Mo, the relationships we've cultivated within the public security system recently... five of them have already been taken away by the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Supervision Division. It seems the public security system is cracking down on unauthorized access to citizens' information like never before."

He sensed that Lu Jingxiu was not such a simple person, but he did not expect that the people around him were all incredibly shrewd.

After searching all day, no information could be found about Lu Jingxiu, nor about his friends.

Then the police officers I contacted investigated arrested one by one, like playing whack-a-mole.

He pressed down on the ground, and the city police's hammer came down once.

The group's extensive network within the public security system, built up over many years, saw a large portion of its contacts shut down in a single day, and the remaining few refused to help with any further investigations.

He really wanted to say: "Mr. Mo, let's stop."

Mo Linyuan narrowed his eyes and stared at the garden outside the window for a long time.

This Lu Jingxiu is quite capable.

The fact that the municipal bureau reacted so quickly and that so much information was simultaneously blocked indicates that he is not an ordinary college student and must have an official background.

But that's all there is to it.

At best, he's just a son of an official.

In Ba City, he had seen plenty of second-generation officials; the only ones who could rival him were yet to be born.

It's nothing more than having some family connections and knowing a few leaders in the public security system.

In his eyes, such people were no different from the neatly trimmed shrubs in the garden.

It looks pretty, but if you cut it, it will still break.

The message Lu Jingxiu sent using Lu Na's phone that day flashed through his mind again.

"Is this all you've got, navigating both the legal and illegal worlds? Don't make your dad laugh. Little Flying Dance is hiding behind someone else..."

He had never been insulted to his face like this before in his entire life. He remembered every single word clearly, as if it were etched into his mind with a knife.

Those who criticized him have either disappeared or are on their way to disappearing, and Lu Jingxiu will be no exception.

He was determined to make this man pay the price.

Make him kneel before you, make him swallow that message back word by word.

"Send someone to follow him tomorrow," Mo Linyuan said calmly, raising his wine glass to his reflection in the French windows. "I need to know which apartment complex, building, and unit he lives in. Then, go in and bring him out for me."

The assistant's expression froze for a moment, but he still nodded: "Yes."

Mo Linyuan raised his wine glass again, tilted his head back, and took a sip.

The red wine slid down my throat, my Adam's apple bobbed, tracing a cold, hard arc under the light.

He gave a cold laugh, the chill in his eyes almost overflowing.

Since the legitimate path is blocked, let's take the illegitimate path.

He wanted to show this man what it truly meant to have influence in both the legal and illegal worlds!

……

The city public security bureau office was brightly lit.

It was already past 10 p.m., and Hong Zhan was still sitting at his desk, not having gone home.

He leaned back in his chair, staring blankly at his phone screen.

Today, a total of four police officers were arrested for illegally accessing information about leading cadres.

Including Cheng Nuo from yesterday, there are five in total.

Five people, in less than forty-eight hours, took turns investigating people they shouldn't have been investigating, like a relay race.

Fortunately, he acted quickly in the morning and upgraded the red list in an emergency. The three police officers who wanted to inquire about the information of the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, and the family members of the chief prosecutor of the municipal procuratorate were stopped on the spot at the authorization approval step.

But that's already outrageous enough.

Five people, in a single day, systematically and deliberately inquired about the information of leading cadres and their families.

In all his years working in the police force, he'd seen some daring people, but never anyone this daring.

This matter is too big for him to cover up anymore; if he continues to cover it up, he will be the next one to be investigated.

He let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to expel all the bad things that had happened that day, then picked up his phone and dialed the number of Director Xue of the Provincial Department.

I answered the phone after it rang twice.

"Director Xue, this is Hong Zhan from Ba City."

"Oh, Lao Hong, what's up so late?" Director Xue's tone was relatively relaxed, and the background noise was very quiet, so he must be in his study at home.

Hong Zhan, like him, was a demobilized soldier. Back when Director Xue was still the deputy director of the provincial department, he promoted him from the local area, and the two have always had a good relationship.

Since they both work in the same market, they occasionally have meals and drinks together in private.

"Director Xue, I have something to report to you," Hong Zhan sat up straight and his tone became formal. "From yesterday to today, our Municipal Public Security Bureau's Supervision Detachment has taken away five police officers who illegally accessed citizens' information."

"According to preliminary investigations, their targets were all relatives of leaders of the municipal party committee and the municipal government."

He paused, allowing the director to process the news, before adding, "From what we can see, this is not the individual act of a few police officers; it is organized and premeditated."

"I have already arranged for a comprehensive review of digital certificate permissions across the city, and the red list has been upgraded. But the current situation... is beyond the control of the municipal bureau. I suggest that the provincial department take the lead in establishing a special task force to thoroughly investigate this series of unauthorized query incidents."

Director Xue was silent for a few seconds, then his tone became serious:

"Five people in one day? That number is definitely unusual," he pondered. "Is there any connection between these five people? Has the source been identified?"

Hong Zhan replied, "We are currently investigating. We have found that three of them are from the same branch office, but the superior who instructed them is still uncertain. In addition, the clues point to some individuals from outside the community, who may have corporate backgrounds, but we need to investigate further."

After a moment's thought, Director Xue made a decision:

"The provincial department will study the matter concerning the special task force. What you need to do now is to secure the evidence, cancel all the digital certificates of the people involved, and seal the case files. I've asked the criminal investigation, cyber security, and supervision teams to send people down to find out the situation. We'll wait for the provincial department's instructions on what to do next."

"Old Hong, you should be aware of the nature of this matter. This isn't just an ordinary unauthorized query; someone is challenging our system. You need to hold your ground and prevent any further problems. Report any new developments immediately."

Hong Zhan understood that the director meant there couldn't be any more problems, and everything should wait for the provincial department personnel to arrive.

"Yes," he replied crisply, then hung up the phone.

He put his phone on the table, leaned back in his chair, and finally let out a long sigh of relief.

With the provincial government backing him up, he felt reassured.

No matter what level of powerful figure is behind this, as long as the provincial department takes the lead in setting up a special task force, he has the confidence to fight back.
