"Military Intelligence Investigation Department!"
Chen Guangran was immediately taken aback. It was from this department! He immediately understood why Ning Zhiheng had boasted that a single telegram could order the police to escort prisoners to Hangzhou, and that the police would not dare to release prisoners without his permission.
Given his position, he was fully aware that the Military Intelligence Investigation Bureau was the direct superior of the police department, overseeing intelligence investigations by the military, police, and gendarmerie across the country. Rumor had it that once you went in, you would never come out alive; it was a black den of iniquity that held the power of life and death!
At the same time, Chen Guangran felt relieved. His adversary wasn't powerful enough to collude with agents of the Nanjing Military Intelligence Bureau. It seemed this was just a simple case of human trafficking.
He didn't reach for the documents on the desk; with his connections, he could easily find out if he paid a little attention. Besides, he had good eyesight, and Ning Zhiheng had no reason to lie to him.
“Brother, you misunderstand. Actually, I could tell from the beginning that you were no ordinary person. Only a department like yours could command the police’s obedience. That’s why I had my suspicions!” Chen Guangran gently pushed the identification back to Ning Zhiheng.
Ning Zhiheng nodded to indicate that it was alright and took back the documents.
However, Ning Liangcai and Ning Zhipeng, who were standing to the side, were a little confused. Why did a military intelligence investigation department suddenly appear? Wasn't it the logistics department?
"Zhiheng, what's going on? After all this time, you weren't in the logistics department?" Ning Liangcai was very unhappy that his son didn't tell him the truth when he came home.
“Brother Ning, please don’t blame your brother. This Military Intelligence Investigation Department is no ordinary department. It’s a special department that reports directly to the leader. Its power far surpasses that of the Logistics Department, but it has many more rules and regulations, and many things are beyond its control. That’s why your brother couldn’t tell you the truth!” Chen Guangran, seeing Ning Liangcai’s unpleasant expression, quickly explained.
Ning Zhiheng glanced at Chen Guangran gratefully. His explanation was far more believable than his own.
In Ning Liangcai's mind, his son was still a greenhorn, inexperienced, unreliable, and prone to making unfounded statements, making him difficult to trust.
Chen Guangran, however, was different; he was a person of high rank and power. His words carried great weight in Ning Liangcai's mind.
"Father, I just didn't want the family to worry, I didn't mean to hide it!" Ning Zhiheng explained carefully.
"Is that job dangerous?" As parents, their primary concern is their child's safety.
"Hehe, it's much safer than going to the battlefield. Besides, most of the time we're just investigating, we don't need to use knives or guns!" Ning Zhiheng explained patiently, afraid that his father would think the matter was more serious.
“Brother Ning, you’re overthinking it! To be honest, everyone who can join this department is an elite of the Party and the country, with a bright future!” Chen Guangran naturally chimed in, which finally put Ning Liangcai at ease.
