Chapter 349: The Mad King, Appointed
Feng Mu proved his loyalty to Qian Huan with his actions, and was entrusted with an important task to set up the Internal Inspection Department.
Wang Cong proved his worth to Qian Huan with his wisdom, and was promoted as the warden of the prison.
"Feng Mu is fierce and decisive, Wang Cong is extremely smart, one is a scholar and the other is a warrior, each has his own strengths. They are my most trusted right-hand men. The most important thing is that the contradictions between these two people are deep and irreconcilable, and they can check and balance each other!" Qian Huan had a wishful thinking in his mind.
These two appointments were not decided on a whim, but were made from the overall perspective. They were both wise and tactful, fully demonstrating his ability to identify and manage people as a prison warden.
Under normal circumstances, such an appointment would be almost impossible to be approved, and even Qian Huan, as the prison warden, would find it difficult to make it happen.
However, the Second Prison is currently facing an unprecedented extraordinary period, people's hearts are in turmoil, and everyone from top to bottom is shrouded in an atmosphere of panic.
In the eyes of almost everyone in the Second Prison, the seat under the warden's butt looked like it had a huge rotten hole in it, and it was shaky and seemed like it would fall apart at any time.
Therefore, now is the moment when Qian Huan’s prestige in the Second Prison has fallen to the bottom, but the interesting thing is that now is also the moment when Qian Huan’s power in the Second Prison has risen to the peak.
He can act recklessly, ignore the rules, and follow the law as he pleases, turning into the "Mad King" with unlimited power in the Second Prison!!! It seems unreasonable, but in fact it is the tacit understanding of smart people after careful consideration - no one wants to face the counterattack of the "Mad King" before his death! They are all waiting, waiting for the "Mad King" to end, and then they will rush up and tear apart the relatives left by the "Mad King".
But they don't know that the "Mad King" will not end, he will only...
Wang Cong took the appointment letter, his face flushed with undisguised excitement, and he said in his heart:
"Feng Mu controls the Internal Inspection Department, and I control the Death Row. So far, the Second Prison has fallen halfway into Feng Mu's hands. Next, the warden only needs to serve as a good front-row seat. I hope he will cooperate."
Qian Huan had no idea of Wang Cong's rebellious thoughts. He just thought that Wang Cong was expressing his true feelings and was impressed by his trust in him. He patted Wang Cong on the shoulder again, his tone full of encouragement and promise:
"Don't worry, the death row will not remain empty forever. It will be filled up soon. By then, you will become the most powerful warden in the Second Ward."
What else can Wang Cong say?
He could only hold the letter of appointment solemnly against his chest, carefully put it away, then saluted Qian Huan with great solemnity and shouted in a murderous voice: "I am willing to follow the warden loyally from now on, even if it means sacrificing my life!"
Fellow prison guards in the distance cast their eyes over when they heard the sound, and envy involuntarily appeared on their faces.
Further away, Zhao Xing, who had taken off his epaulettes and put on an ordinary prison guard uniform, was watching silently with an unusually cold expression.
He snorted coldly, his tone revealing disdain and sarcasm: "One is still struggling to survive, and the other is not knowing whether to live or die. Two ridiculous clowns, hum——"
None of the prison guards passing by dared to respond to Zhao Xing's words. They all pretended not to hear him and kept their distance. The indifferent electronic eyes above their heads watched everything silently.
Qian Huan, with a smile on his face, brought Wang Cong to the Internal Inspection Department.
What appeared before my eyes was a busy scene that lasted all night long. The most eye-catching thing was the two bodies that were dragged out of the interrogation room. Their necks were broken and their faces were frozen with despair and fear before they died.
Such a scene did not surprise Qian Huan, but he was slightly surprised by a figure that appeared in the Internal Inspection Department - the bald-headed prison forensic doctor Qin Liang.
The latter was squatting beside a corpse, yawning lazily and filling out the death report on the autopsy form.
"Forensic Doctor Qin has also been recruited by the Internal Inspection Department. The Internal Inspection Department was only established yesterday. Feng Mu is really quick."
Wang Cong was very perceptive and said something sarcastic.
Qian Huan's doubts were dispelled by Wang Cong's words. He smiled indifferently, then frowned and taught Wang Cong a lesson:
"Whether it's you, Feng Mu, or Qin Liang, you are all people I trust. I would like to see you get along well with each other and help each other."
He paused for a moment, and pretended to be sincere and said:
“There were some misunderstandings between you and Feng Mu before, and I was also responsible for it.
But fortunately, these things are in the past, and for the upcoming [Octagonal Cage Colosseum] plan, I hope you can put aside your grudges, join hands with Feng Mu, and do your best for this plan, do you understand?"
Qian Huan certainly hoped that Feng Mu and Wang Cong would check and balance each other. He was also certain that the two had deep-seated grievances against each other, because this was caused by him by accident and it would be difficult to resolve.
Feng Mu is vicious and vengeful, and Wang Cong is selfish and ruthless. There has been a betrayal between the two of them, and it is impossible for them to reconcile.
No one can forgive someone who betrays him or her. This is human nature. It is impossible for any living person to go against human nature.
But he also didn't want this contradiction to affect what he did next, so he had to mediate, which was also the attitude he should adopt as a superior.
Wang Cong's face flashed with hesitation, but in the end, although he was reluctant, he still nodded slightly, and said in a slightly dull voice: "I will listen to you, the warden, but Feng Mu has acted too high-profile, and it seems that the police have caught him. I am afraid that he will not handle it properly and will delay the warden's important plan."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"It's not a good character to talk bad about people behind their backs."
At this time, the door of the minister's office slowly opened, and Feng Mu walked out. His face was warm, his steps were steady, and his tone was calm but pointed. "Wang Cong, congratulations on your promotion to the warden of the death row. I have to remind you, don't be too happy too soon. You have to be careful of Zhao Xing's revenge. Don't die at home like Gong Lao just two days after your promotion."
Wang Cong snorted coldly and said without showing any weakness: "Don't bother with that, you should worry more about your own safety.
In addition, you arrested a lot of prison guards in the second prison yesterday for interrogation, and you even invited Ma Xuan to come. Aren’t you suspecting Zhou Hu with this action? From what you said now, Gong Lao’s death is related to Zhao Xing again?"
Feng Mu laughed, his eyes flashing with viciousness. He looked at Qian Huan, not hiding his thoughts, and said harshly: "Zhou Hu is a major suspect in this horrific prison riot, and so is Zhao Xing. Not only them, according to our internal investigation, all the warden of the second prison area are inextricably linked to this case."
Wang Cong hissed, "So many, I'm not one of them, am I?"
Feng Mu smiled coldly and said calmly, "Of course not. You are the warden appointed by the warden. You are different from those wardens outside."
Feng Mu's words seemed to be addressed to Wang Cong, but in fact he was expressing his true feelings to Qian Huan, intending to point out his approach to the investigation:
As long as they are not the wardens appointed by you, the warden, then every one of them is involved in the prison riot and is guilty!
Feng Mu's approach to investigating cases is simple and crude, which is bound to lead to injustice. He also uses this to expand the scope of his attack and has the selfish intention of enhancing the power of the Internal Inspection Department.
But Feng Mu's frank and outspoken attitude made Qian Huan feel relieved.
All in all, Qian Huan liked Feng Mu's approach to investigating the case very much.
Feng Mu is truly a famous detective. The Internal Investigation Department cannot be without him!
