With Shi Yufei's assurance, Li Xiuyuan nodded and said nothing more, waiting quietly. Soon, Li Xiuyuan's phone on the table rang. It was Duan Jun calling, saying that the car was almost there and that Li Xiuyuan told them to stop at the village entrance, as he would go there to pick them up.
Li Xiuyuan got up and came out of the house with Shi Yufei, turning off the lights and closing the door behind them.
During this time, Shi Yufei opened his mouth as if to say that the bricks and glass shards should not be dealt with, but the dead dog should be dealt with as well, but in the end he remained silent.
After leaving the village, Li Xiuyuan and Shi Yufei walked towards the village entrance by the moonlight. When they arrived at the village entrance, several cars were already parked on the roadside in the darkness.
Upon seeing Li Xiuyuan approach, Duan Jun and a middle-aged man got out of the car.
"Commander Duan, you've worked hard." Li Xiuyuan reached out and shook hands with Duan Jun. Duan Jun shook his head and introduced the middle-aged man next to him to Li Xiuyuan.
"Li Zhen, this is Zhang Zhigang, the deputy captain of the county criminal investigation team."
"Hello, Mayor Li." The deputy captain of the criminal investigation team quickly reached out to shake hands with Li Xiuyuan. He was a very powerful deputy captain of the criminal investigation team, and he could intimidate a group of street thugs in the county. But in reality, he was just a deputy section-level cadre.
Most of the deputy directors of their county bureau are only deputy section chiefs. After all, the county public security bureau is only a section-level unit. In the past two years, there haven't been many public security bureau directors who have been promoted to deputy division chief level. The director is a section chief and the deputy directors are deputy section chiefs.
There are very few deputy section-level positions that can be allocated to lower-level officials. Some members of the bureau's party committee are considered lucky if they can get a deputy section-level position, and even then, they need to be more senior.
Their brigade leader is still only a section-level cadre, and hasn't even gotten a deputy section-level position yet. His title of deputy brigade leader sounds better, but in reality, he's just a deputy section-level cadre.
However, having such a position is nothing compared to a proper deputy section chief like Li Xiuyuan.
Even a veteran director like Duan Jun, who has connections in his family, treats Li Xiuyuan with utmost respect. Li Xiuyuan, on the other hand, is someone who achieved his success solely through his own abilities. People without connections in his family would naturally be even less likely to treat him the same way.
"Captain Zhang, thank you for your help." Li Xiuyuan shook hands with the other party and said politely.
"By the way, this is the deputy village head, Shi Yufei. He's in charge of leading us to the village to arrest people tonight," Li Xiuyuan introduced Shi Yufei beside him.
Duan Jun and Zhang Zhigang exchanged a glance. They had originally planned to have Li Xiuyuan contact a village official after arriving in the village. However, tonight's arrest operation was impromptu, and they were not familiar with the village. Arresting people in the village late at night without someone they knew would be quite difficult.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiuyuan had already made the arrangements in advance.
As for why he was the deputy director of the village and not the director, they didn't ask any further questions.
Li Xiuyuan even had people to guide the arrest, which shows that other aspects have been considered, and there won't be any trouble. Duan Jun has great trust in Li Xiuyuan when it comes to controlling the overall situation.
"Li Zhen, we've come in total, eighteen people: eight from the town police station, six from the criminal investigation team, and four more borrowed from other police stations in the county. That should be enough for tonight's arrests," Duan Jun reported to Li Xiuyuan.
Li Xiuyuan nodded and turned to Shi Yufei: "Lead the way, let's capture Tian Zhen first."
Shi Yufei nodded and led the way. A group of people got out of the car and followed behind. It was almost one o'clock. Meilin Village was quiet except for the sound of a group of people walking.
However, once you enter the village, you can hear dogs barking from time to time.
This is also a characteristic of the village. Many families keep dogs, but they keep dogs for protection, not because they will come out to see what's going on. Usually, they will only gather together to talk about it the next day.
