Chapter 239 New Stone City's Largest Casino



Gu Shi went to see Gu Guohua again, thinking it was about his house.

Unexpectedly, Gu Guohua did not come alone when he entered the office.

There were several other people standing behind him, who looked like some kind of gangsters.

Gu Shi walked in calmly and respectfully looked at Gu Guohua, saying, "Secretary Gu, you've arrived!"

Gu Guohua didn't speak; this time, his expression was particularly serious.

Gu Shi added, "No one notified me that Secretary Gu was coming. I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

As he spoke, he poured Gu Guohua a cup of hot tea, saying, "Secretary Gu, please!"

Gu Guohua gave him a deep look before finally asking, "Where did you go today?"

This wasn't a question; it was as if Gu Guohua already knew and was just asking him a routine question.

Gu Shi thought for a moment and then said, "I went out to take care of some business. Secretary Gu, the blueprints for your villa are being designed, and I'm sure it won't delay you."

Gu Guohua snorted heavily: "Hmph! Don't you know your own limitations? You insist on getting involved in things you shouldn't!"

Gu Shi was startled. Gu Guohua, who was usually good-tempered, was now criticizing him severely, which meant that he must know all of Gu Shi's schedule for the day.

He stopped hiding it and said directly, "I didn't want this either, but my wife has suffered too much. I want to resolve this matter once and for all."

Since they moved to Xinshi City, Wu Lili, Jiang Lili, and even Zhang Lin and the others have all been acting under Li Juan's orders.

Gu Shi had someone investigate some time ago, and the person behind all of this was Li Juan.

It was she who found the connections for Wu Lili, enabling Wu Lili to get a job at the People's Hospital.

It was also she who helped Jiang Lili, enabling her to bring her child to the big city.

Zhang Lin and his group were encouraged by Li Juan's help to decide to come to Xinshi City.

Even the reports against the jade restaurant were all orchestrated by Li Juan.

Although he didn't know why, Gu Shi knew that all he had to do was bring down that family.

He is Li Juan's husband, the legendary biggest gangster in Xinshi City. No wonder Lin Qingyu has never met him.

The term "organized crime" hasn't been used for a long time.

But this thing does exist, and it appears so openly in New Stone City, in the biggest casino.

Gu Guohua stared at Gu Shi for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Hahaha! Good lad, I wasn't wrong about you!"

Gu Guohua chuckled to himself for a while. Gu Shi didn't know which of his words had touched him, but in any case, it would be best to get Gu Guohua's help.

"You've got guts, kid! I'm getting old, it's time for me to retire!"

Gu Guohua suddenly blurted out this sentence. Gu Shi had always thought that he had retired long ago, but he never expected that he was indeed a secretary in office.

Later, the two talked about something, but Gu Guohua was very satisfied when he left.

Gu Shi's confidence level rose from 50% to 80%.

Subsequently, various investigations were carried out intensively, and a large-scale purge was quietly launched in Xinshi City.

The first shot in the crackdown on organized crime was fired at the Lijun Hotel, the largest and most luxurious hotel in Xinshi City.

The sashimi sold here is generally fine for most people, except for a small number of unlucky individuals.

If the fish that is killed happens to be a pufferfish, it will most likely die.

Especially in cases where someone dies on the spot, in ordinary restaurants, the restaurant owner would have already closed down and the person would be in jail. Unfortunately, this was the Lijun Restaurant.

Then there wouldn't be Li Juan's husband, and Zhang Lijun wouldn't be able to settle things with money.

Because the people in the restaurant didn't know that pufferfish are poisonous, the general public knew even less.

Gu Shi guessed that this was probably how the old lady's son died.

It's a pity that there's no evidence to prove that the old lady's son died from eating pufferfish slices.

The expensive dishes at Lijun Restaurant include a bowl of rice that costs one yuan.

You should know that one dollar is enough to eat two vegetarian dishes and one meat dish outside, plus a full bowl of rice.

The hygiene was substandard; the rice in the kitchen was moldy, and there were even cockroaches in the lard jars.

When the hotel was shut down, the staff inside seemed completely unconcerned, as if they were on a few days' vacation.

But when the restaurant manager ran away and shifted the blame onto everyone in the restaurant, they started to panic.

This time it's for real, unlike before when it was just for show and they'd let it go in a few days.

The second shot was aimed directly at the largest casino in Xinshi City, a den of iniquity!

These three large, gilded characters are prominently displayed in the most prosperous part of Xinshi City.

The people here indulge in extravagance and revelry, treating this place as paradise on earth.

When a large number of police officers went in, there were still quite a few people smoking, looking exactly like opium addicts!

Without a doubt, this den of iniquity has been thoroughly eradicated, and all those who should be arrested have been arrested, leaving no room for further action.

They waited anxiously for Zhang Lijun, who dared not oppose the government, even though he had guns and ammunition.

He usually uses this to scare ordinary people and collect usurious loans.

Zhang Lijun was sitting in a small house, which was a row of small, unremarkable bungalows.

These few small, dilapidated houses were originally intended to house the henchmen who collected loan sharks.

Now everyone has fled, leaving only Zhang Lijun sitting inside. Some of the money he has amassed is kept here.

The underlings didn't know that there was a little vault here, filled with gleaming gold bars.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place, and Zhang Lijun's choice of this location was not without reason.

At least normally no one would come to this place, and his underlings had no idea about it either.

But when Zhang Lijun opened the safe, he was dumbfounded; at least half of the gold bars inside had been taken.

Overwhelmed with rage, Zhang Lijun shouted out in pain, not caring whether his shouts would attract anyone's attention.

After he put the gold bars into the bag with red eyes, the door behind him was suddenly closed.

The sound of the iron gate slamming shut was incredibly loud.

Zhang Lijun was so frightened that he almost wet his pants.

As he turned around, his greasy hair obscured his vision. Before Zhang Lijun could even shake his head, he was punched in the face.

This blow was delivered with all his might, and two of Zhang Lijun's teeth were knocked out.

Ouch!

Zhang Lijun was already weak, so naturally he couldn't withstand the pain and could only lie on the ground groaning in agony.

The man snatched his money bag and was about to leave when Zhang Lijun grabbed his trouser leg.

"You bastard, don't you dare run away! I'll call ten or eight thugs and beat you to a pulp!"

Zhang Lijun remained stubborn and, immediately after uttering those harsh words, began spitting blood.

The thief who robbed him kicked him and was about to run towards the door when the iron gate was suddenly kicked open.

"Stop right there! Did I say you could leave?"
