Chapter 519: You Are Yu Dazhang!

~4 min read 710 words

This is the problem.

It is also the most abnormal part of the whole matter.

Liao Liao Zhangwei never expected that the people at the Hongkou Branch would be so stubborn, one after another.

By all rights, the higher the rank, the more one understands human relations and worldly wisdom.

But this rule failed here at the Hongkou Branch.

"I am also executing a case based on orders from superiors."

Liao Liao Zhangwei could only explain with a stiff neck at this moment:

"I cannot say the specifics; you should understand."

Sensing something was wrong, he immediately distanced himself and used "superiors" to pressure Li Jun.

"I don't understand."

While Li Jun spoke, he lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then continued:

"I do not believe your superiors can bypass so many levels to command our case."

Compared to Wei Qian, he was already considered good-tempered; at least he hadn't hung up the phone and could still argue with Liao Liao Zhangwei.

"Secretary Hong has given instructions regarding this case."

When Liao Liao Zhangwei said this, his voice was pressed very low, as if afraid of being overheard, but Li Jun on the other end of the phone heard it clearly.

Whether one knows this so-called Secretary Hong is unimportant.

What matters is what level in Songhai is assigned a dedicated secretary.

"Do you know who is currently in charge of the special task force?" Li Jun's tone softened.

He had to take it seriously; when he heard the two words "secretary," he knew the level involved in this matter was far more complex than he had imagined.

Seeing signs that the other party was softening, Liao Liao Zhangwei immediately replied:

"According to the two officers we sent over, the suspect is currently with a criminal police officer named Lu Zhongxin."

I guessed it had something to do with him... An obese figure unconsciously floated into Li Jun's mind.

He knew Yu Dazhang was handling cases under Lu Zhongxin in the First Brigade.

These master and disciple pair seemed to have little in common on the surface, but in reality, both were extremely stubborn.

Once they were convinced of something, they would basically not easily change their minds due to external factors.

Lu Zhongxin was famous in the branch for being single-minded, and his actions were extremely obstinate.

"Procedurally speaking, what the First Brigade did was not wrong."

When he confirmed that Yu Dazhang was in charge of this case, Li Jun became tough again:

"Regardless of who gave instructions, we must handle cases with impartiality. Since that case has already established a special task force, please do not interfere with our investigation anymore."

After speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

First Brigade.

Yu Dazhang politely greeted the two officers sent by the General Brigade, then looked at his master:

"Where is the person?"

"Still in the interrogation room." Lu Zhongxin answered quickly:

"A colleague is keeping watch inside."

Yu Dazhang took out his phone and checked the time.

3:50 PM.

Two hours until dark.

Qu Tuotuo had previously wanted to buy him a watch, but he had refused.

Wearing a cheap one was meaningless, and he couldn't wear an expensive one either; even if the family had the means, it wouldn't work because public servants must pay attention to their personal image.

Yu Dazhang's build already raised suspicions of corruption; if he wore a famous watch on top of that, it would basically be concrete proof.

"Continue the interrogation; I am here." Yu Dazhang said to his master.

Lu Zhongxin had been waiting for this sentence; he was not good at external communication, so upon hearing it, he immediately turned and went to the interrogation room.

"Come, come, sit over here."

Yu Dazhang beckoned to the two officers from the General Brigade:

"Thirsty? I'll pour you a cup of hot water."

He led the two into the First Brigade's room and poured two cups of water for them.

These two were also obedient to orders and followed commands; if their leaders told them to come over to take over the case, they couldn't possibly disobey.

Yu Dazhang naturally understood the stakes involved here.

We are all grassroots workers.

Why should workers make things difficult for other workers?
