Police Chief Qiu Le was sitting in his office, his brow furrowed, a cigarette between his fingers, puffing continuously.
The ashtray was already full of cigarette butts, but he didn't seem to have any intention of stopping. His eyes were full of anxiety and fatigue, as if he was shrouded in an invisible pressure.
The whole room was filled with thick smoke, making him look like an immortal surrounded by clouds.
He still looked very nervous. He had not slept well all night since he delivered the case materials of Yuyuan Village five years ago to Tong Yangdong, the Director of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Yinhai Provincial Police Department, yesterday evening.
One night has passed, and there is still no reply from Tong Yangdong.
"The materials have been delivered, why is there no response? This doesn't fit the style of the legendary new director Feng Yuxing!" Qiu Lezheng murmured.
Just when he was getting anxious, the phone rang.
"Hello, Chief Xia!" Qiu Lezheng grabbed the phone, pressed the answer button, and quickly spoke first.
"Hello, Director Qiu! The secretary asked you to rush to Yuyuan New Energy Company!" Yang Zhensheng's secretary Xia Xiang said quickly.
"Oh!" Qiu Lezheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. "Chief Xia, what happened?"
Qiu Lezheng asked carefully. He wanted to confirm whether Tong Yangdong had taken direct action.
"Oh! Director Tong of the Provincial Police Department led people to surround Yuyuan New Energy Company. As for what happened, it is not clear at the moment!" Xia Xiang replied.
"Oh! Chief Xia, I'll go right away!" Qiu Lezheng answered quickly.
After hanging up the phone with Xia Xiang, Qiu Lezheng's heart began to beat faster and faster.
"Damn! This new director is really different! He just took action without saying a word!" Qiu Lezheng was happy in his heart, "Finally, it's working. Damn it! This Yuyuan Village thing torments me every day!"
. . . . . .
Yuyuan New Energy Company.
Hundreds of armed police officers surrounded the entire factory, making it difficult for even a fly to get in or out.
Armed with various weapons, they tightly surrounded the huge factory and blocked every corner.
Yuyuan New Energy Company, led by a man in his forties, confronted Tong Yangdong.
This man was none other than Kou Haizhou, the boss who had called and yelled at Yang Zhensheng, the former secretary of the Yuyuan Municipal Party Committee.
"I don't care which department you are the director of, please withdraw your people. What you are doing is illegal!" Kou Haizhou was not at all impressed by Tong Yangdong, the director of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Provincial Police Department.
"Mr. Kou, I have been ordered to surround your company and thoroughly investigate your illegal and disorderly behavior!" Tong Yangdong still maintained his usual calm style.
"What evidence do you have that my company is breaking the law?" Kou Haizhou said angrily.
"Excuse me, your company's land was expropriated five years ago, right? Have you paid the local residents the land acquisition fee?
We received a report that you haven't paid the land compensation to the people of Yuyuan Village truthfully, and you've even used local officials to arrest people who came to visit. Am I right?"
Tong Yangdong answered Kou Haizhou in a very organized manner.
"What does this have to do with your police department? Not to mention you, a mere section chief. Even if your director comes, you have to withdraw those people! You might even have to apologize, otherwise, you won't even be able to be the director!"
Kou Haizhou was breathing heavily.
"Oh! You are so angry! Why don't you say that even Secretary Qiao of the Provincial Party Committee has to apologize to you when he comes?" Zhang Feng, who was standing aside, said to Kou Haizhou with a sneer.
"Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here?" It has to be said that if you don't seek death, you won't die. Kou Haizhou's words can be put on record.
"Zhang Feng, the police chief of Yinzhou City! His status is a little low, but it's more than enough to deal with you!" Zhang Feng said coldly.
"More than enough? You are right just now. Even if Qiao Guping from the Provincial Party Committee comes, he still has to apologize!" Kou Haizhou used his momentum to fill his pressure.
"Haha... Since you are so awesome, when the director comes later, you dare to talk to him like this. If you can dress neatly, I, Zhang Feng, will respect you!" Zhang Feng was amused by Kou Haizhou.
At this time, the sound of "squeak, squeak..." brakes was heard.
Two people ran in front in small steps. When they reached the place where they were confronting each other, one of them waved to Tong Yangdong while panting.
"Director Tong, I'm Yang Zhensheng!" Yang Zhensheng, the municipal party secretary, shook hands and greeted Tong Yangdong.
"Hello, Secretary Yang!" Tong Yangdongli put on a friendly face and shook hands with Yang Zhensheng!
"I guess this must be Mayor Yu Yan!" Tong Yangdong was a steady person. He was at the deputy division level, acting as deputy director, so it was impossible for him to show off in front of a director-level cadre, not to mention that these two people were the chief cadres.
"I'm Yu Huo, and Tong Yangdong is good-looking!" Yu Yan didn't put on airs, nor could he, nor did he dare to, because Tong Yangdong was from the provincial department.
"Hello, Mayor Yu!" Tong Yangdong shook hands with Yu Yan, pointed at Zhang Feng and Xuanyuan Changxiao, and introduced them, "This is Comrade Zhang Feng, the police chief of Zhongyinzhou, and this is Comrade Xuanyuan Changxiao, the police chief of Changming County, Xiyun City!"
"Hello, Secretary Yang!"
"Hello, Secretary Yang!"
"Hello, Mayor Yu!"
"Hello, Mayor Yu!"
"Hello, Director Zhang!"
"Hello, Director Xuanyuan!"...
Everyone shook hands and greeted each other, followed by a group of members of the Yuyuan Municipal Standing Committee.
"Director Tong, what's going on?" Yang Zhensheng looked at the police around him and asked Tong Yangdong.
"Secretary Yang, this is an order personally issued by Director Feng! We received a report from the public, and I believe you are aware of this.
Five years ago, when the land of Yuyuan Village was expropriated by Yuyuan New Energy Company, the landowners in Yuyuan Village were not paid the compensation they deserved. Many people were even detained for petitioning..."
Tong Yangdong briefly explained the whole story to Secretary Yang.
When Tong Yangdong said this, Yang Zhensheng and Yu Yan, the two Yuyuan City officials, felt a pang of fear in their hearts. They thought to themselves, "It really is because of this matter! Trouble is coming!"
