Chapter 1262: Have You Asked Him?

Saying this, Duan Mingwei paused for a moment, waiting for the leader to digest the information before continuing.

"They met for a half-hour talk, the content unknown. Also, Fan Yu and Fan Jie also rushed back to Nanhong City last night."

Yue Jiaqiang sat in his chair, holding a cigarette, thinking as he asked: "What about Tong Huaiyu and Guo Zidan?"

Duan Mingwei said: "He rushed to Yangcheng overnight last night and took the morning flight back to Beijing."

Yue Jiaqiang's eyes grew somewhat deep; Zhou Hongwen and Wang Minyi were flipping through the documents Duan Mingwei had handed over, and at this moment they lifted their heads, exchanging a glance.

"Any movement from Xie Shengsheng and Lai Qingyu?"

"None!" Duan Mingwei said: "After they left the municipal government yesterday, they went straight home and haven't shown up to this day."

Yue Jiaqiang asked: "What about the Municipal Wei side?"

"All as usual." Duan Mingwei also furrowed his brow: "With such a big incident, the performance of the squad leader Wen Yuan, as the class monitor, I can't understand.

If he had a problem, he clocks in and out on time every day with no abnormality. But if he had no problem, he should have come to see the task force first thing, yet he hasn't."

Zhou Hongwen asked: "Any movement from the other team members?"

Duan Mingwei said: "This morning, the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Liao Jingjun, left the city; as for where he went, our investigators haven't reported back. As for others, no movement."

Yue Jiaqiang tapped the meeting table: "Secretary Zhou, do you really think Wen Yuan has no problem?"

Zhou Hongwen smiled: "No investigation, no right to speak; how do you want me to answer this?"

Yue Jiaqiang laughed, looking at Duan Mingwei: "How about the Song Mao case?"

Duan Mingwei said: "This case is full of loopholes, obviously a frame-up, and should have a result soon."

Zhou Hongwen said sternly: "This is not just a frame-up; there's also an innocent life. So you must investigate thoroughly and gather evidence, and must not let a bad person go."

"Understood." Duan Mingwei stood at attention.

Yue Jiaqiang asked again: "When can Luo Ruoyang be brought in?"

Duan Mingwei glanced at the time: "Should be soon."

"Report!"

At this moment, a report came from outside.

"Come in!" Yue Jiaqiang shouted.

A platoon leader pushed open the door and entered, saluting Yue Jiaqiang and them.

"Chief, the Dingnan County Bureau police have arrived."

Yue Jiaqiang laughed: "Duan Mingwei, immediately conduct a surprise interrogation of Luo Ruoyang."

"Yes!"

Duan Mingwei turned and left, arriving at the fifth floor, where he saw two policemen escorting a youth wearing handcuffs, unable to stand steadily.

"What's your name?"

Luo Ruoyang was still arrogant when arrested, but after being brought here and seeing so many fully armed armed police, he almost pissed himself.

"I... I am Luo Ruoyang."

Duan Mingwei asked: "What's your occupation?"

Luo Ruoyang's leg kept trembling: "Ding... Dingnan, mineral resources inspection... inspection... inspection... team leader."

Duan Mingwei said to the two criminal police beside him: "Conduct a surprise interrogation on him."

"Yes!"

The two criminal police escorted Luo Ruoyang toward the temporary interrogation room.

Duan Mingwei smiled at the two policemen: "Hard work, you can go back after lunch."

"No no no!" The two policemen waved their hands: "Our bureau chief said, send the person and return immediately."

Duan Mingwei didn't press further: "Alright, drive back safely."

"Yes!" The two policemen saluted, turned, and left.

The two exited the reception house, got into the car, and let out a sigh.

"Damn, too scary." One policeman patted his chest.

The other policeman nodded: "Looks like the sky in Dingnan is really going to change."

"Probably not just Dingnan." That policeman lit a cigarette, took a hard drag: "You see, even the armed police are dispatched; I think the whole Ganzhou might need a change of heaven."

The other policeman fell silent for a while: "Maybe you're right, the anti-gang operation in Ningdu the night before last should be the omen."

……………………

Ganzhou Municipal Bureau!

Political Commissar Ning Xue walked back and forth in the office with his hands behind his back, somewhat anxious.

Deputy Bureau Chief Gao Jinmin and Jiang Fang sat on the sofa, watching him, their heads swaying back and forth.

"I say, Political Commissar, can we stop walking back and forth? I'm getting dizzy from your swaying." Gao Jinmin snorted: "The Song Mao case was handled by Jiang Hongming; we must make a quick decision. When the task force comes to us, we'll be passive."

Ning Xue hesitated and said: "But he is..."

Jiang Fang rudely interrupted Ning Xue: "What the hell time is it now? The people behind Jiang Hongming probably can't even protect themselves, what do you still have to worry about?"

Gao Jinmin continued: "Yesterday, the task force already went to the detention center to see Song Mao and left two people to protect his safety; obviously, the task force doesn't trust us."

"Chen Baokun and Li Xingquan ran to the province; his problems are definitely not small." Jiang Fang's face was full of killing intent: "Damn, it's strange if the task force could trust us."

Ning Xue looked at them, hesitated again and again, finally gritted his teeth: "Arrest Jiang Hongming, immediately conduct interrogation."

Jiang Hongming is a deputy captain of the criminal police; this guy doesn't even know he's already facing great disaster. Or rather, he hasn't yet seen the current situation clearly.

He thought he had Li Jun and Li Xingquan behind him, so even the bureau leadership wouldn't dare to touch him.

"Hualala, hualala..."

In the criminal police team's restroom, Jiang Hongming and the deputy captain, two squadron leaders, were playing mahjong.

"Captain, you burned incense for that immortal this morning—how come your luck is so good?"

Jiang Hongming laughed heartily: "I've never believed in any gods or buddhas—I only believe in myself."

"Erbing!" Jiang Hongming slapped the table and threw the erbing in his hand out.

"Kan!" the deputy captain laughed: "We've played several rounds, no hu, but having a kan isn't bad either."

A company commander laughed: "Got a kan, but don't point a cannon at me."

"How could I point a cannon at you?" The deputy captain picked up a nine-tile: "Nine."

"Hu!" The company commander couldn't help laughing: "Deputy, you're really something today—eighty percent of the cannons are pointed by you, right?"

The deputy captain sighed: "I really don't know which immortal I offended—so unlucky. If I don't hu this round, I'm not playing anymore."

Just then, with a bang, the rest room door was kicked open, and four people jumped in fright.

Looking up, they saw Jiang Hong, who quickly stood up: "Chief Jiang, you..."

Jiang Hong said nothing unnecessary, ordering: "Handcuff Jiang Hongming and take him away."

Two police officers walked over and directly put handcuffs on Jiang Hongming.

At that moment, this guy finally came to his senses, his face changing drastically: "Chief Jiang, what do you mean?"
