Chapter 231: Bad Luck on the Bone Eye
After receiving the news, Rawdon immediately rushed to the hospital.
"Chief!" When Roton just arrived at the door of Mali's ward, he happened to meet Aris coming out.
I didn't expect Aris to arrive faster than me.
"Oh, Roten, you're here too." Aris smiled, "Mali is in good shape."
After saying this, Aris left.
Roton frowned. Aris seemed a little too proud of himself.
You know, Mali was his boss before.
When Mali was the director, Aris was the deputy director.
However, Aris has now been promoted to first-class superintendent and became the director.
But when facing your old superior, you have to at least show some respect, right?
Calling him by his first name is a bit too much.
Luo Dun didn't think much about it.
"Chief!" Luoton shouted after entering the ward.
"I'm not the director now." Mali leaned on the bed, looking pretty good.
He has almost recovered from all his other injuries, except for the head trauma that prevented him from waking up.
Now that I'm awake, there's nothing wrong with me sitting up and leaning against the head of the bed.
I believe that after some rehabilitation training, I will be able to be discharged from the hospital.
There were quite a few people in the room, most of whom Luoton knew, mainly Mali's family members.
Some of them were probably relatives and friends, but Luoton didn't know them very well.
"In my heart, you are still my old leader, Chief," said Rawdon.
"You guys go out first, I'll talk to Roden." Mali said to his family and friends in the room.
As people close to Mali, they all knew the relationship between Rotten and Mali.
Since Mali had said so, he knew that he had something to discuss with Roton.
When the family members went out and closed the door, Mali said, "If you still call me Director, someone might be unhappy."
Roton understood who Mali was talking about, it was Aris.
"I don't care what he thinks." Roton said with a smile.
"I appreciate your kindness. To avoid suspicion, you don't have to call me director. You can just call me brother in private. As for public occasions, just call me boss. After all, I don't have any position now." Mali said.
He had heard that Rawdon had suddenly become a second-class superintendent of police and a special investigation commissioner of the CBI. Such a promotion made him jealous.
However, he has a good relationship with Rotun, and he is happy for Rotun's current achievements.
"You're awake now, and you'll be discharged from the hospital soon. Then you'll have a new position right away," said Rawdon with a smile.
Mali was supposed to be promoted, first transferred to the General Administration and then to become the director of a special zone.
"I'm afraid something unexpected will happen." Mali's face darkened.
"What?" Rawdon was a little surprised.
"There should be no problem with being transferred to the General Administration, and there will probably be no problem with promotion in police rank, but I'm afraid it will be uncertain as to whether he will be appointed as the director of a special district." Mali sighed.
After Mali's explanation, Roton finally understood.
This car accident changed a lot of things. For example, Mali was originally going to be promoted to district director. This step had already been decided, but now there are unexpected changes.
His uncle had fought for him before.
But as he fell into a coma, other competitors emerged.
Previously, due to the relationship with Uncle Mali, others had to give in.
It's different now. We can't give way to a vegetative person, right? Of course, those people also want to take down the director of this special zone.
Although it hasn't been finalized yet, these people have already come out to compete, and we can't just send them away with just one sentence.
It is true that we cannot blame anyone else for this matter. We can only blame Mali for having a car accident at this critical juncture and being unlucky.
Think about it, his North Central District Police Chief has been removed, so what's the problem with others competing for an undecided district chief? That's a very normal thing.
Mali is awake now and certainly has a chance to compete.
It's just that the original confirmation has turned into the current uncertainty. "If I can't take the position of district director, I probably won't have a good position in the headquarters. The power is probably far less than that of the district police chief." Mali said helplessly, "Just now Aris came over and said he came to see me. His words were indeed very respectful, but I know very well that he was saying something else. He was trying to deceive me."
Just now when Roton came over and met Aris at the door, Aris called his name directly, and of course he heard it.
This is what Aris really thinks.
Everything he said to me in the ward just now was just fake.
How could he not know?
"No matter what, you can be promoted to deputy police inspector. I believe you can get an important position." said Roton.
Mali smiled but said nothing.
He knew that Rawdon was trying to comfort him, and that it was well-intentioned.
Not as hypocritical as Aris.
But in reality, there are not so many positions, especially those important power departments, which are already occupied.
Even if a seat is vacant, there are so many people waiting for it. The competition is fierce.
In short, there are more people than porridge, and even some inconspicuous positions are fought over by many people.
This car accident almost changed his life.
Originally he had a bright future, but now he has turned into this miserable state.
Since his uncle was about to retire, he had used all the connections he could to pave the way for himself.
Next, my uncle’s influence in the police system will drop sharply. If he fails this time and fails to become the district chief, it will be even more difficult for him to rely on himself in the future.
It's even possible that you won't have this chance in this lifetime.
"What do you think of Aris?" Rawdon asked again.
He knew that continuing the previous topic would make Mali depressed, so he prepared to change the topic, perhaps to make Mali excited.
Of course, this is also the main purpose of Roton's visit to Mali.
He didn't just come to visit Mali, he came with a purpose.
"Him?" Mali frowned. He felt that there was something wrong with what Rotten asked.
The relationship between him and Aris was definitely not good, and he didn't believe that Roton couldn't see it.
He used to be the director and Aris was the deputy director.
It’s just that Aris has connections with the Ministry of the Interior, so sometimes Aris would go against me on some things.
Although he suppressed most of them with his authority as director, he must have been unhappy.
He would definitely not like a subordinate who challenges his authority as a director.
"Roden, do you have any special ideas? For Aris?" Mali asked, "From the CBI?"
Mali wondered, was Roden trying to use the power of the special investigator? Was he trying to deal with Aris?
If that's the case, that would be great.
If he gets rid of Aris, he will have the opportunity to get back the position of chief of the North Central District Police Station.
At most, he will be the district police chief with a high police rank but low salary.
If there was no chance of getting the position of district director, he would rather stay here.
Although Luoton is the deputy director, he is willing to work with Luoton.
Given Roton's current status and position, I might have to rely on Roton in the future.
There is no way. The backer behind Rotun is Shiva, who is still in the rising stage and is about to reach the top of the Mabang police system and become the director of the general bureau.
Therefore, Luoton's future is much brighter than his own.
With Shiva's support and Rotun's ability, Mali dared to say that Rotun would not be able to stay in the position of deputy director for too long. Maybe in two years he would be promoted to a higher level and transferred to another district as director.
This police station is still his world.

"You think too much." Rotten said with a smile.
He will still use the power of the Special Investigation Commissioner with caution.
In many cases, this deterrent is more effective. Once used, it is certainly very satisfying, but there are also some side effects.
When the problem could be solved by other means, there was no need for Roton to use this privilege.
Mali's face darkened at Rotten's words. He was just daydreaming.
"But it is really related to this matter. I want to deal with Aris, or rather, us." Roton continued.
"What do you mean?" These words immediately made Mali's mood recover.
"We can make something of your car accident." said Rawdon.
"Car accident?" Mali is a director after all, and he has a lot of experience, such as framing and putting the blame on others. He has seen too many such methods. "You want to push this case onto Aris?"
At this point, Mali immediately said, "I'm afraid not. The case has been closed. I heard from my family that a member of the online shopping gang was driving under the influence..."
"Brother Mali, even if this is true, if we say it is not, then it is not true." Rawdon said calmly, "The case is closed, but if there are any doubts, we can re-investigate it."
Re-investigate?
Mali was stunned for a moment, and then became a little excited.
It may be difficult for others, but for Roton, it is not a difficult task.
Given Luo Dun's current identity as a CBI special investigation commissioner, even if he did not mention this identity, if he proposed a reinvestigation, there would surely not be many people who would object, right? If they did, wouldn't that mean that the case would be even more suspicious?
Mali even hoped to see Aris jump out to stop it, so that he could put the blame on him.
"A gang member was ordered to murder the director. I think everyone should accept this result." Rawdon said, "A normal car accident? Can you believe it?"
Although the case has been closed, Roton knows that the public is not very satisfied with the result.
No one would pay attention to ordinary people's car accidents, drunk driving, etc.
But Mali is a big director after all.
What would the public think when something like this happened? They would definitely think that there was probably some incredible inside story involved.
Everyone is just a spectator. They want to dig deep into the ground to find out more about government officials and police.
Therefore, closing the case as a normal car accident actually increased everyone's suspicion.
In everyone's opinion, this case is very problematic.
And there are people with great power behind the scenes who are causing trouble and covering up the truth.
The Commissioner of Police of Mumbai District, this is already a big shot.
Under normal circumstances, how could such an investigation result come out when such a big shot got into trouble? A gang took all the responsibility? Even that gang was not completely wiped out later. It was too outrageous.
How is it possible to make them believe?
How could there be no conspiracy here? This is absolutely abnormal.
Therefore, Roton dared to say that as long as he said he would reinvestigate the case, this public opinion alone would give him tremendous support.
The facts are not important. I have to take advantage of this atmosphere and public opinion and guide the power of public opinion to make Aris suffer a heavy lesson.
After all, the biggest beneficiary after Mali's car accident was Aris.
It is basically clear who benefits and who is the murderer. This is almost common sense.
People don't care what the truth is, they only believe what they think.
And the person behind Aris is Harari.
The relationship between the state government and the police is not very harmonious, and the public is more or less aware of this.
This makes the conspiracy theory even more true. Aris relied on Harari's support to hire someone to murder his boss and take over the position himself.
It's a conspiracy of the state home department.
The case was closed, apparently due to pressure from the state government.
One thing after another, perfect.
At least that's what the public thinks.
Anyone who doesn't know the inside story would agree that there are various conspiracies involved in this case.
This will meet the public's expectations for the truth behind the director's car accident.
"Tell me, how should I cooperate with you?" Mali said immediately.
"Then we have to plan carefully." Luo Dun said with a smile, "I plan to do this..."
It's a pleasure to deal with smart people.
After Rotten told his plan, Mali made some suggestions of his own to fill in the gaps and make Rotten's plan more perfect in details.
"Then we'll see your performance in a few days, brother." After confirming, Rotten laughed.
"Don't worry, although I'm not an actor, these are no problem for me." Mali also smiled.
Those who work in the government are all actors. It is normal for them to be insincere, give passionate speeches, and perform.
So, they are the real actors.
After Rawdon left, Mali's wife came in, but no one else came in.
"What did he say? It should be good news, right?" Mali's wife saw that her husband looked very good.
You know, when Aris left just now, Mari's face might have looked normal, and outsiders might not have noticed it, but she had lived with Mari for many years and knew him very well, so she could see that there was something wrong with her husband's eyes.
I am definitely angry inside.
When Rawdon left, her husband's previous anger had obviously completely dissipated, and he looked very excited.
This made her curious. She wondered what Roton had said to him.
"Did they ask you to come here to find out the news?" Mali looked at his wife and said.
"They don't dare to ask." Mali's wife smiled and said, "Besides, you have a good relationship with Luoton. Luoton is very powerful now. We think you can get in touch with Director Nandan through Luoton's relationship. If Director Nandan can speak up for you, then your position as the director of the special zone will be more stable."
Mali understood what his relatives were thinking. They didn't dare to tell him these things, so they asked his wife to persuade them.
