The group walked out of the shop.

Chen Guoqiang and Zhao Dong arrived at the shop entrance in the same car.

Guan Feng stepped forward and opened the car door for the two senior leaders.

As soon as Chen Guoqiang got out of the car, he asked, "How's the investigation going?"

Guan Feng said, "We've already traced the source! It was the beef sold by this shop. We're tracing it back piece by piece and contacting people to retrieve the beef. However, based on the on-site surveillance footage and the vendor's statement, he was most likely unaware of the source. It was sold to him by a man named Zhang Yongqiang! We're now preparing to take him into custody to prevent more beef from being sold."

Listening to Guan Feng's well-organized explanation, Chen Guoqiang nodded and said, "That's good! What are your plans for the next step of the investigation?"

Guan Feng explained, "This is Director Zhang from the farmers' market. We plan to hand this over to Director Zhang to check the bills, keep an eye on the beef, and recall all the beef that has been sold. He will take responsibility and take those who have eaten the beef to the hospital for a check-up to make sure they are healthy. Those who haven't eaten the beef can just bring it back!"

“I will take some men to Zhangji Village again to investigate Zhang Yongqiang’s information, and arrest him if necessary.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Guoqiang said, "Let's do it your way!"

Zhao Dong reminded him, "Xiao Guan, you are now in charge of the Major Crimes Unit. If there is a shortage of personnel, you have the authority to make internal adjustments and allocate them as needed."

Guan Feng said, "Understood! I have already contacted Zheng Yuandong and asked him to lead the First Squadron directly to Zhangji Village to ensure that no other sick cattle enter the market."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Dong encouraged him, saying, "Well done! Is there anything else we need to coordinate?"

Guan Feng bluntly stated, "First, we don't know whether it's a cow or something else. If it's sold in the city, that's fine, but if it's going to other cities, we'll probably need the bureau to intervene!"

"Secondly, our initial investigation revealed that three large hotels and eight restaurants purchased this beef. Currently, only one has shown any adverse effects, and we are still contacting the remaining few. I am worried that this could trigger a large-scale run on the company."

Upon hearing this, Chen Guoqiang said, "For the first situation you mentioned, we can only wait for Zheng Yuandong's results; as for the second situation? We just arrived from Mayor Zhang's place, and the hospital teams from the three counties and two districts nearby have already assembled. If there are not enough people in the city, we will immediately arrange for personnel to fill the gaps."

Seeing this, Guan Feng immediately said, "Director Chen, since that's the case, let's not delay, I'll go to Zhangji Village."

Chen Guoqiang said, "Okay!"

Guan Feng turned to Zhao Yang and said, "Zhao Yang, you stay here and cooperate with Director Zhang. You must notify each household one by one. Contact us immediately if there are any issues! Lili, get in the car with me, let's go to Zhangji Village!"

"receive!"

"receive!"

Zhao Yang and Huang Lili both nodded.

Guan Feng nodded goodbye to Chen Guoqiang and Zhao Dong, then got into his car and left.

Looking at this scene, Zhao Dong said, "Just two days ago, I was telling Xiao Guan that I should do my job well and learn to report more to the leaders. Now it seems that having such an energetic subordinate is what makes people feel at ease."

Recalling the events of this morning, Chen Guoqiang nodded and said, "Where would an ordinary team leader have such political awareness?"

When he reported the hospital's overcrowding to Vice Mayor Zhang and other key leaders, the overcrowding had just begun. Right after he finished reporting, the hospital also called Vice Mayor Zhang for help, saying that the hospital could no longer accommodate everyone.

This made his report seem like he had foresight.

This earned him much praise, especially since he had just become the acting director, which was a big plus for him among the key leaders.

Although Chen Guoqiang was very worried about the case, he also had a better impression of Guan Feng. This had nothing to do with the relationship between the two of them; it was purely because Guan Feng's ability to exceed expectations time and time again gave him a good impression.

Zhao Dong asked, "Shall we go to the hospital first? And wait for Xiao Guan's condition to improve?"

Chen Guoqiang nodded, offered a few words of encouragement to Director Zhang and Zhao Yang, and then left with Zhao Dong.

......

Zhangji Village.

When Guan Feng arrived with Huang Lili, Zheng Yuandong had already taken Zhang Yongqiang into custody.

Guan Feng interrogated Zhang Yongqiang directly at his home.

Guan Feng asked, "Zhang Yongqiang, regarding the toxic beef incident, how many toxic cattle did you sell in total? Where did they go? Explain everything clearly!"

Zhang Yongqiang blinked, looked at Guan Feng and pretended not to know, asking, "What poisonous beef incident?"

Seeing that Zhang Yongqiang was still lying, Guan Feng slammed his hand on the table and said, "Still playing dumb with me? More than 100 people in Hua'an have been poisoned because of your poisonous beef. You can refuse to confess, but then wait for more of this beef to flow into the market and poison more people. At that time, not only will you spend your life in jail, but you won't even be able to pay off your debts even if you sell your house!"

Zhang Yongqiang's expression immediately changed: "What? Poisoned?"

Guan Feng slapped his work ID card down in front of him and said, "Look closely! What's this? The Major Crimes Unit! Do you think we're some idle bunch who came all this way just to chat with you? Confess right now!"

Zhang Yongqiang's eyes widened as he stared at the words "Major Crimes Team".

His first instinct was to deny it: "I...I really don't know."

Guan Feng lost his patience and said to Huang Lili, "Contact Wang Bin, put down everything you're doing, and bring Zhang Yongqiang's wife and children back to the station. I suspect that Zhang Yongqiang and his family of three are involved in the case, and we must investigate this seriously!"

Huang Lili said, "Okay!"

Zhang Yongqiang completely panicked.

He quickly said, "No, no! I'll confess, I'll confess everything. This has nothing to do with my wife and children! If you take them away like this, how will others see them?"

Guan Feng said coldly, "Now you know you have a sense of shame? Where were you before? When you sold these sick cows, why didn't you care about your reputation? You only care about your own wife and children. Do you know that there are more than 100 families lying in the hospital? Just now, someone came out of the emergency room. What are they going to do?"
