Having said that, Vice Minister Xu couldn't refuse.

"Minister, please rest assured, I will follow up on this matter carefully. You two continue your conversation, I'll go and get back to work."

Before leaving the room, Vice Minister Xu was still smiling and responding.

But as soon as the door closed, his face instantly darkened.

Things were going in the direction he most hoped for, but he still felt that something was wrong.

Isn't all of this going a little too smoothly?

Are they doubting themselves?

However, Vice Minister Xu quickly dismissed the idea.

He had been working for Japan for less than three years, and even his superiors didn't know his specific details, only his code name.

Furthermore, with Lao Yan as the scapegoat, it will be very difficult to find him.

That being said, Xu's inherent caution still prevented him from letting his guard down.

In any case, the first batch of steel bars must not be tampered with in any way.

As for what happens next, we'll see how things go.

So, three days later, as Jiang Si requested, he delivered the batch of steel bars she wanted to the construction site.

As expected, Jiang Si arrived early.

She checked each and every one of the truckloads of steel bars that arrived.

Just as Vice Minister Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was preparing to return to his unit...

The car was stopped by several people halfway through its journey.

Seeing that the other party was wearing a police uniform, Vice Minister Xu calmly opened the car door, "What's going on? Do you know who I am...?"

The police officer interrupted him solemnly, "Comrade Xu Bingkun, is that right?"

"I am!"

"Grab him—"
