Chapter 293 Resurrection from the Dead
The subordinate was confused, so he asked, "What else did you say?"
"Nothing much, just a few nonsensical jingles, 'White feathers and black chickens, unknown to the world, black chickens and white feathers bring disaster to the world, military leather coats cover the world, who can stop them from dominating the south?' Signed: Black Chicken and White Feathers."
'White-feathered black chicken' was Zheng Yuan's former nickname.
The origin of this nickname is quite unethical. His whole body is shiny black, and that part is no exception, except for a tuft of almost white hair. No more than one person knows about it, and Jiang Jingyan is one of them.
Just this order...
First the chicken and then the feathers, inside and outside are turned upside down, and then add "dominate the south".
If it were someone else, Zheng Yuan would probably think that they were just unfamiliar with each other because they had not seen each other for many years. However, given the tacit understanding he and Jiang Jingyan had built over the years, and Mr. Jiang was good at transmitting information, he knew that the subtle differences must have other intentions.
He was putting on his coat while thinking, when suddenly an idea flashed through his mind. He immediately contacted Liang Jing and reported to Guan Guofeng that he needed to send someone to guard the Huafang Technology Group.
Huafang Technology is the source and center of all Meng Hongwen's power. His achievements since taking office have been too remarkable. If there is no fatal evidence, the higher-ups will not easily start the investigation from Huafang. To be honest, even if Meng Hongwen falls, there will be a bold mark of his in the Huafang's credit book, and this mark is enough to make the outside world feel sorry for him.
Therefore, the special team to eliminate Meng's party acted from the outside to the inside. On the one hand, it was to confuse Meng Hongwen's sight and collect more evidence to ensure that when Meng Hongwen wanted to use Huafang as a shield, the situation outside had already changed drastically. On the other hand, it was to force Meng Hongwen to step down voluntarily and formally accept the investigation, so as to preserve Huafang's reputation.
This is one of the reasons why Jiang Jingyan insisted on retrialing the Chen family's old case despite everyone's obstruction. Meng Hongwen's fate is unknown, and it is even more unknown whether Chen Qing's parents can be vindicated by retrial at that time.
To put it bluntly, he doesn't rely on anyone regarding Chen Qing's affairs.
Now that he fell into the sea and sent a message anonymously, it should not be just to catch an arms dealer, but to hint that an important clue has appeared in the center of this encirclement.
After waiting for eight days, there was finally a glimmer of hope.
Zheng Yuan and Liang Jing set out together and rushed to Zhounan Tongbei Street.
According to the time on the report letter, the transaction time is three o'clock in the morning. All departments are urgently deployed and wait for the target person to appear.
Zheng Yuan couldn't guess what Jiang Jingyan was up to. If his whereabouts still had to be kept secret, and he was forced to show up midway, he would need to react immediately to cover his retreat. Among all the personnel carrying out the mission, except Liang Jing, no one knew where this information came from.
"Focus on protecting the people at the scene." Zheng Yuan held the walkie-talkie, his eyes fixed on the car window. "If you find any onlookers, quietly lead them away."
"clear."
On the other hand, under the order issued by Guan Guofeng himself, a team led by Jiang Zhongyi secretly monitored the top management of Huafang and the core factories of the import and export business sector.
The subordinates were surprised, "Mr. Jiang was discharged so soon? Didn't they say... he was already in critical condition?"
Zheng Yuan glanced at him and said nothing.
He suddenly realized something, smacked his lips, and continued to concentrate.
At 2:50 in the morning, the side door of the shop at No. 24 Tongbei Street opened quietly.
The sniper reported, "Targets appeared, a man and a woman."
"Buyer?" Zheng Yuan guessed.
"It seems so. The woman has an unusual physique and is suspected of being a man dressed as a woman."
He licked his teeth. All the shops on Tongbei Street were small. No. 24 looked ordinary in appearance, and its decoration was even from more than ten years ago. It was unlikely that a transaction would be conducted here, unless it was just to inspect the goods on the spot.
Jiang Jingyan once led a team to seize similar illegal transactions. At that time, Zheng Yuan followed him to learn and understand the psychology of this type of people. He was really smart.
From the moment the transaction is confirmed, the buyer inspects the goods and pays the down payment, and the seller notifies the storage point to prepare the goods for shipment, with more than three destinations set up. Until the last moment, it is impossible to determine which one is the actual transaction location.
If you want to capture someone, you must act during the transaction.
"Attention, all teams! Do not act rashly without orders!" Zheng Yuan put down the intercom and dialed Liang Jing's number.
If Jiang Jingyan's intelligence is correct, the stocking point is closely related to China's defense.
At four in the morning, a man and a woman who had entered Shop No. 24 left through the side door and drove onto the main road.
The units deployed on the road waited and watched. Half an hour later, the buyer arrived at the highway exit and the service area personnel followed in disguised cargo delivery vehicles.
At the same time, Liang Jing sent a message that there was movement in the warehouse three kilometers away from the Huafang Factory.
Zheng Yuan was so angry that he laughed out loud. This Meng Hongwen was playing tricks under the lamp.
The night sky was still dark as it passed by on both sides. He looked at his subordinates rubbing their hands in preparation and calmed himself down. It was time to close the net.
At this time, the road deployment has caught up with the suspicious vehicles, extending in the east, south, west and north directions in the south of the island with the warehouse as the center.
At half past five, all parties determined the transaction location.
As daybreak approached, Jiang Zhongyi secretly met with several senior officials of Huafang in the name of Guan Guofeng, while Liang Jing and his men continued to keep a close watch on the factory and warehouse.
At 7:16, a column of orange-red light rose in the sky.
The final transaction point was determined to be in the southern suburbs of Zhounan.
Zheng Yuan immediately notified all teams to take action, and all buyers and sellers, including those at No. 24 Tongbei Street, were arrested.
"How's it going? Did you meet anyone?" Liang Jing had just finished her work and was busy contacting him. "Lao Guan has the documents, and the investigation team is on their way to Huafang."
Zheng Yuan took off his coat and stood in the wind, feeling the cold breeze on his back. He said in an annoyed tone, "He's not here."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long while, then he sighed, "Forget it, at least I'm alive, there's no need to rush."
He was annoyed and didn't respond, just rubbed his head and said goodbye.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the investigation team arrived at Huafang Technology. Guan Guofeng and Jiang Zhongyi were waiting at the Municipal Bureau for Zheng Yuan and Liang Jing to make their reports.
The meeting had just started five minutes when someone knocked on the door, interrupting it.
Zheng Yuan looked up and saw a man in road cleaning work clothes standing at the door. His eyes were playful under the brim of his hat, his face was covered with stubble, and he was covered in dust. His neck was covered with a piece of blood-soaked gauze, and it looked very rough.
Liang Jing's heart trembled. She suddenly kicked the chair away and stood up, hesitating and not daring to approach. "Jing Yan?"
"It's already this late, and you're still wasting time making reports." Jiang Jingyan stepped into the room, took off his hat and nodded to others.
Jiang Zhongyi's eyes were slightly red, his hands were shaking as he gripped the armrests, and he opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
The conference room fell into complete silence. Zheng Yuan punched him on the shoulder, his eyes widening. "Damn it! He's alive!"
Jiang Jingyan stood still, his tone nonchalant, "I thought it would take Deputy Director Zheng a few days to understand what I meant."
Nine days, isn't it a long time? He has indeed changed a lot, but his tone is as stern as usual.
"There's a witness. His address and contact information are in here." Jiang Jingyan didn't sit down, but tossed down an envelope. "On the day of the dock explosion, I found the sniper assigned by the other party. He was armed with a domestically produced LR4 high-precision sniper rifle. I don't need to explain where the Huafang Technology equipment appeared, who authorized it, and where it came from. It meets the requirements for a thorough investigation of the personnel in service."
He nodded to Jiang Zhongyi again, turned and walked out.
Zheng Yuan was anxious, "What are you doing now?"
"The rest is your job. I have my own things to do."
He stammered, "Are you...going to the Tang family?"
Jiang Jingyan turned his head and caught a glimpse of his solemn expression, then half-closed his eyes and looked at him.
