Chapter 1332: Waiting for the Big Fish to Surface!

The Zhang brothers did not know that someone had long been waiting for them like a hare waiting for a stump!

Zhang Xianyao held the walkie-talkie and urged angrily, "Why haven't you come up yet?"

"We've been blocked; they were prepared long ago. All these guests downstairs are people they arranged. We've fallen into a trap." The subordinate's voice was extremely panicked.

Zhang Xianyao realized something was wrong and said to Zhang Xianguang, "Brother, we've been surrounded by their people; they came here specifically to block us."

Zhang Xianguang looked toward Du Ruian, his expression turning cold: "You've really grown, haven't you? To actually pull this on me. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

He instructed Zhang Xianyao: "Tell the brothers not to be afraid; if the sky falls, I'll hold it up!"

Zhang Xianyao picked up the walkie-talkie and said coldly: "Be ruthless when you strike; don't worry about making a scene."

A panicked voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Second Boss, we don't dare to act. They've revealed their identities—they're Police! This group waiting downstairs are Police! If we make a move, that's assaulting the Police!"

At this moment, Zhang Xianyao could no longer hide his panic and reported to Zhang Xianguang: "Brother, the people downstairs are Police."

Zhang Xianguang's face turned pale; he looked at "Du Ye" in shock, then swept his gaze toward Han Hu: "You are Police? You deliberately used Du Ruian as bait to lure me to Yechuan County?"

Tang Ye nodded and said: "Your deduction is correct!"

Zhang Xianguang was silent for a moment, then ordered, "Tell the people downstairs not to make a move."

Immediately after, he said to Tang Ye: "I will go with you; don't make things difficult for the others."

Han Hu sneered: "Zhang Xianguang, you are suspected of organizing a criminal underworld gang; not one of them will escape."

A cold look appeared in Zhang Xianguang's eyes: "What a big mouth you have; what is your rank?"

Han Hu said: "Does it matter what my rank is? As long as you break the law, as a People's Police officer, I have the authority to arrest you."

Zhang Xianguang laughed heartily: "Do you believe that with one word from me, I can have your police uniform stripped off?"

Han Hu was stunned: "Alright, I'm waiting for you to strip off my police uniform!"

Zhang Xianguang gave Zhang Xianyao a look.

Zhang Xianyao nodded at Zhang Xianguang.

Zhang Xianguang knew that Zhang Xianyao had already passed the message to the third brother, Zhang Xianzu.

Both brothers had been detained, so they needed Lao San to find a way, pull strings, and settle this matter.

……

They escorted the group toward the County Public Security Bureau.

Tang Ye and Zhang Xianguang rode in the same police car.

Zhang Xianguang's phone rang.

Tang Ye sat next to Zhang Xianguang and answered the call.

"Brother, how are you doing?"

"I am not your brother. Zhang Xianguang is suspected of organizing a criminal underworld gang and has been formally arrested."

"Damn it, you're so arrogant! Do you dare tell me your name? Do you believe I can make you disappear?"

Tang Ye was stunned for a moment: "Who I am is not important; what is important is that some people are completely unaware of their own situation and are still speaking with such arrogance."

"Fuck, I will find out who you are. If I don't deal with you, I'm not a Zhang."

Tang Ye hung up the phone and said to Zhang Xianguang: "Your brother's character is truly low."

Zhang Xianguang glared at Tang Ye viciously: "Why did you answer my phone? What right do you have to answer my phone? You are infringing on my rights; I will sue you."

Tang Ye smiled faintly: "If I didn't answer this call, how would your brother know you'd been arrested?"

Zhang Xianguang stared at Tang Ye: "Aren't you afraid of him finding people?"

Tang Ye said: "I'm not afraid of him finding people! Only if he finds people can I determine who your protective umbrella is and who is using their power to help you commit evil!"

Zhang Xianguang realized that Tang Ye was the backbone of this group: "Young man, you are still very young; don't play with fire and get burned. As long as you let me go, I guarantee you can rise through the ranks smoothly; within ten years, you could even serve as the Director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau."

Han Hu sat beside Zhang Xianguang, his eyes full of mockery.

Unless it was a high-ranking appointment, the Director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau was a Department-level Official, and Tang Ye was currently at the Department level.

Zhang Xianguang had made the mistake of judging people by their appearance and looking down on others.

Tang Ye had not yet announced his true identity.

He chose to keep himself hidden!

Only then would the big fish behind the scenes surface!

……

Hearing the busy signal on the phone, Zhang Xianzu was so angry his adrenaline spiked.

The Zhang Family Three Brothers were famous in Wenyang and even Xiyang, whether in the underworld or the legitimate world.

They had never imagined that their brother would be arrested in Yechuan County.

And they never expected that a police officer would dare to speak to them so arrogantly.

After thinking it over, he dialed Tan Zonghe's number.

"Mayor Tan, there is a matter I need your help with."

"Lao San, what kind of trouble have you run into?"

"My brother was arrested in Yechuan County! The police won't release him, saying my brother is suspected of organizing a criminal underworld gang."

Tan Zonghe's heart skipped a beat: "Why did your brother go to Yechuan County?"

"Do you remember Du Ruian? He owed money he couldn't pay back and fled elsewhere. Recently, he suddenly contacted my brother, saying a relative abroad wanted to pay back the money, and the location for the repayment was chosen in Yechuan County. My brother didn't think much of it and went to the appointment."

Tan Zonghe sensed something was wrong: "Lao San, don't be anxious; let's find out the news first, and then we'll think of a strategy."

Zhang Xianzu was stunned for a moment: "Alright, Mayor Tan, sorry to trouble you."

After hanging up on Zhang Xianzu, Tan Zonghe stood up and paced the room several times.

Finally, he dialed the number of the Vice Mayor of Wenyang City, who also served as the Director of the Public Security Bureau.

"Lao Geng, there is a matter I need you to investigate. Zhang Xianguang has been detained by the police in Yechuan. Find out who gave the order."

Geng Cong was startled: "How could Zhang Xianguang be arrested by the Yechuan Police? This matter is quite strange."

Tan Zonghe sighed: "He took a group of subordinates to Yechuan County to collect usurious loans and was arrested on charges of organizing a criminal underworld group. Now is not the time to dwell on this; hurry and go inquire about the situation. I always feel that this matter is not right; it is aimed at me!"

Geng Cong pulled out his address book and found Han Hu's phone number.

"May I ask if this is Bureau Chief Han? I am Geng Cong."

"Mayor Geng, hello. Is there something you need?"

"I just received news; did you arrest Zhang Xianguang?"

"Yes, our county has recently been carrying out the Clear and Bright Action. We received reliable information that a criminal underworld gang was engaging in illegal activities at Wanghulou, so we took arrest action and captured a criminal gang. Zhang Xianguang is the organizer of that gang."

Geng Cong thought for a moment and laughed: "Bureau Chief Han, you must have made a mistake! Zhang Xianguang is a famous entrepreneur in our Wenyang; you must have misunderstood. How about this, I will come over personally later to pick him up."

Han Hu said with difficulty: "I'm afraid that won't do! I have already reported this matter to the Xiyang City Bureau, and Bureau Chief Zheng attaches great importance to it after learning about it!"

Hearing that Han Hu had reported this matter to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, Geng Cong immediately realized that the situation seemed to be developing in an uncontrollable direction.

"Bureau Chief Han, later on, I will arrange for someone to handle the handover. I ask that you give me some face and cooperate."

Geng Cong's tone became tough, but Han Hu was not angry at all.

"Since Mayor Geng has said so, I must cooperate. You all should hurry and arrange to pick him up!"
