Chapter 726

The Public Security Bureau official in charge of 110 said: "From receiving the alarm call to now, it's already been 25 minutes; according to normal response efficiency, we should have arrived at the scene by now."

Lin Zhinan said casually: "Past is past, present is present; 40 minutes later, it's still not too late for us to go. Remember, when the time comes, whatever happens at the scene, everything will be based on what Boss Geng says. Afterwards, no matter who asks, we must go by what Boss Geng says."

Everyone nodded; although these people still weren't qualified to attend Geng Miao's banquet, this matter concerned the Geng Miao clan, so in their view it was entirely justified, completely discarding regulations and casting aside their duty to eliminate violence and promote good.

At this moment, the Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau in charge of 110 seemed to think of something and said: "I just checked; the phone number that called 110 is very likely Su Yang's, possibly he's already at the scene. After this long, we still haven't dispatched—what if he pursues responsibility? Moreover, if he goes to the scene, wouldn't Boss Geng's handling be less smooth?"

Lin Zhinan scoffed: "What are you thinking? Even if Su Yang goes over, Boss Geng's side will have pretty much settled things; by then, as long as we insist we never saw that woman, what can Su Yang do?"

"I estimate he called 110 simply because that woman called Su Yang for help at a critical moment, prompting him to dial 110."

"No matter what position he's in, by the time he arrives at night, the daylilies will be cold. You have to believe in Boss Geng's team's ability. As for why there's been no response for so long? That would be even easier to explain."

"Just say the operator didn't forward this issue upward in time. How about this: find an officer who's usually not sharp and has no connections, make him directly responsible for this call‑taking time; if Su Yang pursues it, we'll fire him."

"Within the system it's always like this—as long as someone takes the blame, it's fine; moreover, he's an official police officer, not a temporary worker, so we've already given Su Yang face. This time, Boss Geng will launch a counterattack against Su Yang; everyone, write an anonymous complaint and send it directly to the provincial Discipline Inspection Commission."

"This time we will collectively file a complaint, and together with that video of his bribery, we believe it's enough to make him lose his position as a County Party Committee Standing Committee member. As for what comes next… never mind, I won't say more; let's wait a bit, then we'll all set out in ten minutes. By then, you'll follow me to the scene to see Su Yang's embarrassed face."

After his words fell, someone said: "When I went upstairs, I heard that Sun Chengjun and Lao Ding had gone out; do you think they'll go to support Su Yang?"

Lin Zhinan said disdainfully: "Sun Chengjun and Lao Ding? Sure, others can't even command them; just the two of them going is useless. Even if they go, it's only after receiving Su Yang's call, and Su Yang would have gotten the call only after the incident had already occurred."

"So waiting for them to go is the same; the daylilies will be cold, going or not makes no difference. Oh, you said that, and I suddenly realized something— isn't Sun Chengjun not Su Yang's man?"

"Hasn't he always wanted to be an informant in our Public Security Bureau? That's perfect; we don't need to rush the operator to take the blame—let Sun Chengjun take it instead. We can all say the operator reported this major case to our Deputy Director Sun, and then he rushed to the scene."

"After that, whatever happens we won't know. The reason we dare go to the scene is entirely because we found out the caller was Comrade Su Yang. This way, isn't it perfect? The woman vanished into thin air, while Sun Chengjun goes to handle the scene; I'd like to see how Su Yang will punish Sun Chengjun."

Upon hearing this, everyone burst out laughing; a flatterer, laughing and clapping, said: "Director Lin, you're truly wise—we could never have thought of that even if we were beaten to death. Speaking of which, when Su Yang gets the boot, couldn't we ask Boss Geng to pull strings? Let you take the Vice County Magistrate post, plus your Public Security Bureau Director position, securing a seat on the County Party Committee Standing Committee shouldn't be hard. Then we'll also bask in your glory, Director Lin."

Upon hearing that, Lin Zhinan really did have that thought; inside the system, who doesn't want to Climbing Up? If we succeed in taking down Su Yang this time, he too would have rendered great service, and after saying a good word for the Geng Miao clan, this matter isn't without a chance of success.

Thinking this, he felt happier inside, but still said: "What are you thinking? Becoming Vice County Magistrate might be possible, but directly entering the County Party Committee Standing Committee lineup—how easy could that be? This isn't something just county leaders can decide."

"Alright, you all finish your recent work; after Su Yang gets the boot, Deputy Director Sun Chengjun will have to go too, and his position will need someone to take over."

"Even if we're to advance, it's everyone advancing together. Alright, no more talk—I think we're about ready to set out. But don't drive there; we'll go on foot, preferably in plain clothes. Since it's after work hours, naturally everyone's at home; we only leave after getting a call from the bureau, each from our own homes. This arrangement makes sense, right?"

His words fell, and everyone praised him; at that moment, Lin Zhinan suddenly felt he was still quite wise—something he hadn't realized before.

Su Yang's side had already tidied up the scene almost completely, and at the same time comforted Liu Zixuan. Liu Zixuan wanted to call his family right then, but he stopped him; some things are more convenient handled privately. The green-haired ones had tied themselves up with rope they found themselves; today's ordeal let them know what fear is.

As for Geng Le, he was still lying on the ground; according to Sun Chengjun's experience, he wouldn't die anytime soon.

After everything was settled, Sun Chengjun muttered: "Something this big happened—didn't anyone call 110? Why hasn't anyone from the bureau shown up yet?"

Su Yang sneered: "110? I already called while on my way over; by the timing, they should have arrived early, yet there's still no one. This shows one thing—they very likely planned this in advance."

"Also, it's fortunate we arrived in time; otherwise we might not be able to give an account. We're waiting here now, until the 110 personnel appear—I'd like to ask Lin Zhinan how he does his work."

At the same time he also asked Liu Zixuan: "Should we have someone send you back first, then I'll come over after I finish things here?"

Liu Zixuan said: "No, I'm also waiting here; I want to see what kind of scoundrel this so-called Public Security Bureau Director really is, able to be in the same den as them."
