Chapter 194 Seeking Help from Kyoto
After the Gao family in Kyoto received another call from Gao Bolin who was far away in Chengdu, Gao Bolin's father Gao Yuanpeng knew that the situation was urgent.
If things go wrong, Gao Bolin will be implicated, and the Gao family will also be implicated. Since the death of Mr. Gao, the Gao family's foundation has been getting worse day by day.
He had already resigned from the Kyoto Z Law Committee a few years ago.
The Gao family finally had a great leader, a figure who was the future of the Gao family. Gao Yuanpeng was furious. He had already warned Berlin not to act too recklessly.
Look, how is it now?
After much deliberation, Gao Yuanpeng decided to make a phone call using his former identity, hoping that his old face could still be useful.
After the call, he, like his son Gao Bolin, waited for a call back.
But Gao Yuanpeng couldn't sit still and paced back and forth in the study anxiously.
At the same time.
Cheng City.
Gao Bolin did not receive a call back from the Gao family in Kyoto within an hour.
On the contrary, what he got was that Lin Zhizhou and Jiangcheng Discipline Inspection Committee split into two teams, one team went to the hospital and the other team went to the 4S Discipline Inspection Committee. Gao Bolin had already guessed Lin Zhizhou's intention. He didn't need to meet with Lai Guoliang again and had to use communication.
Cheng City Hospital has sent a special car to pick up Lai Guoliang's son and wife.
Things have gotten out of control.
It is obviously not practical to prevent the hospital from contacting Lai Guoliang's son. If an accident happens on the way, the boy has a bad heart and someone dies, the situation will be out of control.
Gao Bolin mentally estimated how long it would take for the hospital to pick up the person and meet him at the hospital. It would take at least an hour and a half to go from Lai Guoliang's home to the hospital and back without traffic jams.
Within this hour and a half, he must fight for it again with Kyoto.
So while Gao Yuanpeng was anxiously waiting for a call, Gao Bolin called again an hour after the last call.
Gao Yuanpeng hurried to the desk.
"Hello?"
"Dad." Gao Bolin shouted.
Gao Yuanpeng's heart sank. "Berlin, I called the committee to try to smooth things over, but they haven't replied yet."
Gao Bolin said solemnly: "Father, it's too late. Go to the Lin family now and bring the keepsake left by the old man when he died. Be sure to ask the old man of the Lin family to call Lin Zhizhou. You only have one hour."
Gao Yuanpeng was horrified and yelled, "Berlin, how could it be so serious? What did I warn you about? You didn't listen at all."
Gao Bolin closed his eyes and said, "Dad, it's no use talking about this now. There's no time."
"Beep, beep, beep..." Gao Yuanpeng received a busy tone in response.
Gao Yuanpeng was in a state of anxiety and quickly told the driver to prepare the car. He took the keepsake left by the old man, which was a pen. The old man had taken good care of the old man of the Lin family back then, and he hoped there would be room for recovery.
It only took five minutes from receiving the token to getting on the car.
In the car, Gao Yuanpeng held the box in his hand, recalling the conversation he had with the old man before he died.
"Yuanpeng, Berlin is incredibly talented and will surely achieve great things, but he tends to be impatient for quick success and without restraint, he'll take detours. You should give him more pointers to prevent him from making mistakes."
Who would have thought that the old man’s words would come true.
After Berlin became the secretary of Cheng City, the father and son had few opportunities to meet. It was ultimately his negligence.
The driver speeding all the way to the Lin family's old house took only fifteen minutes.
After going through several security checks, it was another fifteen minutes before Gao Yuanpeng met the old man of the Lin family in the Lin family's study. This was the fastest speed after he made a phone call in advance to shorten the security registration time.
Thirty-five minutes had passed since Gao Bolin's third call, and Gao Yuanpeng didn't have much time left.
Lin family study.
Lin Lixiong sat at his desk and said, "Yuanpeng? What happened? It's so urgent. Sit down and talk."
Gao Yuanpeng was still debating whether to sit down or not. He took the box and respectfully placed it on the desk, then said directly, "Old man, Berlin encountered Zhizhou's inspection team in Cheng City, and something went wrong. I hope you can ask Zhizhou to show some mercy for my father's sake."
Lin Lixiong looked up at Gao Yuanpeng's expression, who was obviously very anxious. His eyes fell on the box again and he reached out to open it.
He twirled the pen in his hand, his thoughts drifting away.
The old man of the Gao family is much older than him and took good care of him when he was young. This is a favor.
Old Master Gao's last words echoed in my ears: "Li Xiong, I'm afraid that after I leave, I won't be able to control that kid Berlin. I'm afraid he'll take a wrong turn. If anything happens to him, can you please give him a hand, considering the friendship we had back then?"
He shook the hand of his old friend and mentor and said, "Don't worry, I've watched Berlin grow up. Don't worry."
Lin Lixiong sighed while holding the pen.
Mr. Gao knew Berlin's true nature. What had he done to cause Yuanpeng to lose his composure?
Lin Lixiong raised his hand to signal Gao Yuanpeng to sit down and asked, "Then do you know what Berlin did that made Xiaozhou find him?"
Gao Yuanpeng didn't know the whole story at this time, and just shook his head anxiously and said he didn't know.
Seeing this, Lin Lixiong said, "Alright, don't worry. I'll call Xiaozhou and tell him. I'll be frank with you. A small fight won't be a big deal. If the mistake is too big, I, an old man, won't be able to cover it."
Gao Yuanpeng nodded quickly and waited for Mr. Lin to call.
"Hey, Xiaozhou."
"Grandpa?" Lin Zhizhou was a little surprised when he received a call from his grandfather at this time. After frowning and thinking for a while, he figured out the key.
It seems that Gao Bolin has already sent the message to Kyoto.
Lin Lixiong said: "Xiaozhou, I heard that you found Chengshi?" He did not directly say Gao Bolin's name.
Lin Zhizhou: "Yes, Grandpa."
"What's the matter?" Lin Lixiong asked.
Lin Zhizhou did not hide anything and briefly described the current case over the phone.
Lin Lixiong held the phone for a long time without saying anything. He was thinking and weighing the pros and cons.
Listening to Xiaozhou's description, this matter involves a lot of things. I'm afraid...
After a few moments of silence.
Lin Lixiong asked a key question: "So there is no direct evidence right now?"
After listening to this, Lin Zhizhou thought to himself that the old man was thinking of the care that the old man of the Gao family had given him when he was young.
He said directly: "Grandpa, although there is no clear evidence yet, all the clues point to him, otherwise he would not have called Kyoto. Grandpa, what did you teach us? Have you forgotten?"
The last sentence was asked back to Lin Lixiong, who was speechless after being asked by his grandson.
It's a bit helpless. No matter how great the favor is, it cannot go beyond the party discipline and national laws.
He chose a tactful approach: "I will land in Chengdu tomorrow afternoon."
Lin Zhizhou was startled on the other end of the phone: "Grandpa, what are you doing?"
Lin Lixiong said in a deep voice, "It's not about this matter. There's something more important." He paused for a few seconds before continuing, "You can handle the Berlin matter. Hmm—is the Gao family in Kyoto involved?"
"I don't know yet."
"Okay, I got it."
Lin Zhizhou thought for a moment. His grandfather was coming to Cheng City, and Ting Lan happened to be there too. He might as well meet him.
What he didn't know was that Lin Lixiong came for this very matter.
Lin Lixiong briefly discussed this matter with the younger members of his family, but did not elaborate on the details.
Just as the old man was about to hang up the phone, Lin Zhizhou suddenly spoke up: "Ting Lan is also in Cheng City."
When Lin Lixiong paused, his voice had a different emotion: "Okay, I understand." This time, he said the four words "I understand" clearly in a much better mood.
Gao Yuanpeng listened to the old man's conversation and had a premonition in his heart that what Berlin did might be something that even the old man could not cover up.
He held his breath and concentrated as he heard Lin Lixiong say, "Yuanpeng, it's not that I don't want to help. Berlin has gone far this time. I will land in Chengshi tomorrow. I can only promise you one thing: what Berlin does will not involve the Jingdu Gao family."
Gao Yuanpeng was terrified, his blood pressure soared, and he suddenly stood up from the sofa. Suddenly, his eyes went dark, and his body fell heavily back onto the sofa.
I was so angry that I fainted.
