Zhao Youzhi looked aggrieved and quickly defended himself.
"You've been scheming since you were young. Won't you drive Secretary Cheng crazy tomorrow?"
Zhang Xiangnan's face immediately turned from cloudy to bright.
"I call it deception in war. You know nothing. You can't even praise people properly."
On the other side, Cheng Tianji put down the phone with satisfaction and looked at the two young men proudly.
"Are you relieved now?"
"Don't worry. I told Zhenjun when I came here that our problem can be solved with just a word from Uncle Cheng."
Guo Yang gave a compliment at the right time.
"Okay, let's eat at my house tonight and take the food away after dinner.
Your father and I went to school together at the Party School. How could I accept your gift for doing such a small favor for you?
"Uncle Cheng, we bought these things on the black market. Only in the hands of a scholar like you can their value be realized. We young people don't understand this. They will be ruined in our hands."
Guo Yang's words made Cheng Tianji smile even more, and he thought to himself that this young man was very sensible.
…
In the hospital ward, after the six wounded soldiers had eaten and drunk enough, Zhang Shuguang asked them to have a good rest and he would come to see them again tomorrow.
After leaving the ward, Zhang Shuguang nodded to the two joint defense team members outside, got on his tricycle, and took his grandparents and mother towards home.
At nine o'clock in the evening, all the police officers of the county bureau, except the female comrades in the household registration office, were mobilized again.
This time the commotion was even bigger. Not only was everyone armed with live ammunition, but all joint defense teams were also mobilized to cooperate in the operation.
At 9:30 in the evening, the police and the joint defense team surrounded the small woods in the south of the city.
At 9:40, the battle officially began.
"Don't move."
"Everyone squat down with your heads in your hands."
"If you run again we'll shoot."
There are always people who won't cry until they see the coffin. They think that it will be the same as before, the police will not really shoot, and they will be fine as long as they run away during the chaos.
When the dense gunfire rang out, they realized belatedly that the police seemed to be serious this time.
One after another, black market members fell to the ground injured. The timid ones didn't dare to run anymore and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.
Those who ran fast had already run out of the woods. They originally thought they had escaped, but when they came out of the woods, they saw that what was waiting for them were the black muzzles of guns.
"Comrade, I'm not from the black market. I'm a level six fitter at a machinery factory. I came here today just to buy some bicycle parts."
Some people held their heads and loudly identified themselves.
People in the black market are not stupid. Every bicycle has a steel stamp on it, and no one dares to buy it if it is stolen, so they dismantle it and sell the parts.
"Just lie still and don't move. Let's talk about your identities at the police station."
It was pitch dark and the police had no way of identifying the suspects, so they could only take them to the police station and interrogate them one by one.
"Comrade, I caught up with you on my first visit here. Will it affect my work?"
Someone asked timidly.
"Honestly, is this your first time in the black market, or your first time being arrested? Perhaps only you know best. Now stop talking nonsense, stand up and follow us."
There were so many people arrested tonight that there were clearly not enough handcuffs.
Zhao Youzhi thought of a way, pulled out their belts and tied their hands.
A group of people had their hands tied and had to hold up their pants that were about to fall off at any time. They were escorted to the police station by armed police officers.
The Public Security Bureau has already known the dens where black market members hide their money and supplies.
After the gunshots were heard here, Deputy Director Ding Yue and instructor Wan Chaojie immediately took action and raided their two lairs.
"Director Zhao, there are totally not enough interrogation rooms and detention rooms!"
The Public Security Bureau was already overcrowded at this time.
"Have them stay in the yard, then interrogate them in batches. Once their identities are confirmed, send them directly to Prison No. 2. I'll call the warden right now."
It was unrealistic to keep so many people in the Public Security Bureau, so they had to be interrogated overnight and sent directly to prison.
"Deputy Director Ding, Instructor Wan, there's no need to interrogate the people you brought back. Send them directly to prison."
Both of them were brought back from the old nest, so their identities did not need to be confirmed again.
"Okay, I'll send it over right away."
The public security comrades directed the people who were escorted here to squat in the yard, and a circle of armed police officers were guarding outside.
The property brought from the old nest was directly locked in the warehouse. Tonight will be mainly for interrogation, and the inventory of stolen money and property can only be put off until tomorrow.
The interrogation was proceeding in full swing when a jeep suddenly drove into the Public Security Bureau compound.
"Where's Zhao Youzhi? Ask him to come out and see me."
Cheng Tianji got out of the car with a very ugly look on his face.
You promised me not to investigate further, and I was still bragging in front of the juniors, but you uprooted the black market in the south of the city right after.
That's not how it's done. Aren't you slapping me in the face?
At this time, Cheng Tianji was a little furious and drove directly to the Public Security Bureau.
"Secretary Cheng, our Director Zhao is personally leading the team and conducting a surprise interrogation in the interrogation room."
The captain of the public security brigade was in charge of guarding outside. When he saw Cheng Tianji coming, he hurried to greet him.
"Take me to him."
Under the leadership of Captain Hong, Cheng Tianji stepped into the interrogation room for the first time.
"Stop, Director Zhao, what's going on? Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
As soon as he entered the interrogation room, Cheng Tianji saw Zhao Youzhi wearing a vest, hitting the person being interrogated with the baton in his hand.
