Chapter 1145: Having crooked thoughts

"... Director Luo Lan believes that there are some conflicts of interest between Lan Si and the Perez family, and there have always been rumors of them having firefights over certain things."

"But because we didn't have concrete evidence, perhaps Director Luo Lan hoped to be able to obtain some important clues or evidence by observing this attack."

"As the same law enforcement agency, I chose to cooperate with the Federal Investigation Bureau's action. This is the reason the plaintiff's lawyer has always wanted to know."

He said these things very calmly. The problems he had in this case were all solved at once. Cooperating with other law enforcement departments in law enforcement—this reason makes sense.

Then everything could be explained. This is like a very famous magazine in the federation called "Psychic," which introduces many psychics and their so-called true stories.

In the early years, quite a few people were deceived, and this magazine also became a disguised advertisement and platform.

Later, because its influence was slightly large, according to gossip, it was because the wife of a big shot also believed in these psychics, and under the request of the psychics, she did some things that were detrimental to the family's interests.

So this big shot was very angry, but couldn't directly ban the magazine and catch these psychics.

Federal officials are produced through elections. Regardless of whether it is true or not, the approval rating of public opinion is very important.

Any official who wants to go further in the political arena must master this point.

Federal people are superstitious and have beliefs. They believe that their deceased family and friends will go to heaven or hell, and these psychics who can communicate with the dead are clearly a part of the real world.

Many people believe in them. Forcibly toppling these people will only trigger dissatisfaction among the people, so soon a state-level heavyweight newspaper began to publish articles exposing the scams of psychics.

When people realized that the miracles they thought were god-like were just some scientific means, they suddenly had a feeling of sudden realization.

Just like the people listening at this moment, and all the people who are concerned about this matter and don't know the truth.

There is no conspiracy or hatred, at least there is none on the police chief's side.

The case has reached this step, and there is no need to continue the trial. He only needs to provide some evidence, and the rest is the investigation surrounding Luo Lan.

Because he is a government employee, the investigation surrounding him will be taken over by professionals.

At the moment the trial ended, this news flew out as if it had wings. Almost all media newspapers were reporting this matter.

What they are discussing is not the problem of whether the police chief abused his power, but the problem of the law enforcement scale of the Federal Investigation Bureau and all law enforcement departments.

Undoubtedly, this is a failed law enforcement, and the main person in charge points directly to Director Luo Lan of the Federal Investigation Bureau.

This Director Luo Lan was called by some media with honorary titles like "Evil-Eliminating Hero" some time ago, but now he has exposed these very unreasonable behaviors. This huge contrast not only ignited the discussion and attention of public opinion, but also triggered some people's more exploration and curiosity about him.

What kind of person is he to show so many facets?

Among the people, soon people were divided into two batches. Some support Director Luo Lan's measures. They also think that although there is no evidence to prove that Lan Si is the leader of a criminal group, everyone has heard that he is a gang leader. In order to eliminate evil, doing so is acceptable and necessary.

And another part of the people, under the guidance of some articles, produced a worried emotion.

If power can be so indulged and abused, then who will be the person it eventually harms?

Some articles reported the incident of innocent people being injured in the firefight that day. Seven or eight passersby were attacked by stray bullets when they were passing by. Some were seriously injured and still cannot live independently now.

Some were lightly injured and have returned to life and work.

But their medical expenses, as well as various other expenses, are still troubling them.

In addition, there are some cars damaged, and some houses and shops damaged. No one has compensated for their losses.

And the one who caused all this to happen was indulging the gang firefight.

This also extended to another discussion: in the situation of mastering criminal intelligence, should law enforcement departments prevent crime from happening in advance, or let crime happen and then remedy it?

In short, Director Luo Lan became famous, although he actually didn't want to be famous.

The Federal Investigation Bureau is not a place that can be focused on by spotlights. There are too many dark things hidden here. Once discovered, it is inevitable that it will become a new news hot spot.

But he was still concerned, and his family was also concerned.

Including the marriage that has had no children for many years, and various things.

Even in the old city, Luo Lan was harassed.

He knew that Lan Si must have countermeasures, but he didn't expect them to come so fast, and in this way, a way that the whole nation is concerned about.

"Director, there are many reporters outside saying they want to interview you...", his subordinate stood at the office door looking at him, but was glared at by him.

This was clearly with temper, "Drive them away, don't let them destroy our work, find some lawyer to warn them, and send them a lawyer's letter."

He walked to the window somewhat irritably. Outside the gate of the branch, quite a few reporters gathered. They were clearly very eager to see him.

Just at this time, the phone ring on the table suddenly rang. He walked over and picked it up, "This is Luo Lan."

"It's me..."

The familiar voice coming from the receiver made Luo Lan frown, "I said, don't call me when I'm working."

"If there is anything, wait until the evening and we will talk!"

He didn't wait for the person on the opposite side to say anything and hung up the phone directly.

The subordinate at the door shrank his neck and quickly left.

It was his wife who called.

He had a very complex emotion toward this woman—it couldn't be called love, and there was some resentment, as well as irritability.

He didn't like the actions of this woman always wanting to seduce him, although he also knew that he almost delayed the most beautiful time of this woman, but this was what she was willing to do herself.

It's not that Director Luo Lan is a saint. Like most men, he needs to release his sexual impulses from time to time, but even if he goes out to find a call girl, he won't sleep with that woman!

At this moment, on the other end of the phone, this woman, who was many years younger than Luo Lan, gripped the phone so hard that her knuckles turned white. She looked toward the outside with some horror. There were a large number of reporters there.

They were constantly slapping the windows and doors and making noisy sounds, wanting her to accept their interviews.

She had already dialed the police phone, but because this case was related to Director Luo Lan, the police department here was also very cautious and only sent two police officers to maintain order, so that they wouldn't rush into Director Luo Lan's home.

But to ask them to do anything further, they didn't dare to do it.

These past few days, a rumor similar to "police are dogs of the Federal Investigation Bureau" has spread in New Jincheng. Some fanatical and extreme news lovers even held up some highly humiliating paintings at the gate of the police station to satirize them.

Some people even customized a police uniform for their dog, then led the dog to walk around at the gate of the police station, and constantly let the dog greet its "colleagues."

In fact, in this era, people's desire for entertainment and desire to vent emotions is stronger than before, and after.

This is an open and advanced society. People's thinking has started to become active, open, and thirsty for personalization and social influence because of various changes.

But this society also lacks such a channel and lacks more entertainment methods. When a flash point appears in public opinion, and many people start to participate in it, a carnival of public opinion begins.

In fact, more than that, this is still an organized "social violence," the overall society's various violent behaviors toward a certain individual.

People's desire for Director Luo Lan's personal situation and privacy made the media see the power of monetization. Every link is fully playing its role, under the interference of some invisible forces.

Now they are no longer satisfied with just finding trouble for Director Luo Lan, but have also found their way to his home. His wife has also become an object of people's attention.

This should have been a story praised by people—the girl who was saved married the hero who once saved her, but people found that this girl didn't seem to be living happily!

She appeared very dull, dead, rarely socialized, and they had no children.

Having no children is also an unacceptable thing for federal people. If one of them cannot give birth to children for some reason, then these can still be forgiven.

But a tabloid newspaper first broke a piece of news, saying that Director Luo Lan's wife had an abortion after marriage.

Abortion is a very serious "crime" in the federation, because God told people that people have no qualification to deal with the little angels he sent to the world, so abortion is illegal. In many states, abortion has even evolved into a very profitable illegal business.

However, there are also some areas that support abortion, but they will strictly register every family that has an abortion to ensure that abortion will not affect them in the end.

This tabloid reporter got the record at that time: Director Luo Lan took his wife to have an abortion.

This news once again ignited society. In this society where conservatives are still the majority, this is simply blaspheming faith!

Not to mention the native families of Director Luo Lan and his wife, both are devout believers, including Director Luo Lan himself, who also expressed that he was a devout believer when he was young.

These things he said and did in the past were dug out one by one, forming a larger social collective participation phenomenon.

Someone ran over here, smashed the glass in the house with bricks, and scolded Director Luo Lan's wife outside as a "cheap bitch who disobeyed God's order." Everything they did made this woman unable to bear it.

The police didn't care, and she didn't know who to call. Since the last time she tried every means to make herself pregnant, was discovered, and then had a big argument, a clear crack appeared in the relationship between her and Director Luo Lan—the kind that couldn't be repaired.

She didn't know any of Director Luo Lan's subordinates, let alone actively contact them for help. She is very helpless now.

In fact, she knows that Director Luo Lan should have a real wife and children; otherwise, he wouldn't be so repulsive to her.

Over the years, she tried every means to change these and tried hard to become a qualified wife for the other party, but she never succeeded, and it made the two walk further and further away.

She herself didn't know that this had become a heart demon and an obsession for her. She is constantly falling into the hell that started with repaying kindness!

In the end, her neighbor couldn't bear the noise here and called the police, and the police came to disperse the extreme people and reporters at the door.

Feeling the noise around her disappear, Luo Lan's wife finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Afterward, they also told Luo Lan about this matter, and Luo Lan only then knew why his wife suddenly called him (the phone number left when he left).

He believed that there was Lan Si's operation behind all this. Lan Si's pressing step by step made him feel a kind of terrifying feeling. He couldn't say it, but that feeling kept lingering around him, making him feel uneasy.

He couldn't deal with it so passively anymore. In the local investigation, Lan Si almost didn't participate in any crime, and his alcohol hadn't been transported over yet.

Even if it was transported over, it actually had no use.

As one of the national defense suppliers, he has the power to produce and transport those wines, and he still has a license in his hand. As long as there is no evidence to prove that it was Lan Si who transported the wine here and sold it to those gangs, rather than those gangs snatching his wine, then he is still not committing a crime.

Wanting to catch Lan Si's little tail, just running behind him is not enough; he must take the initiative to attack.

He stood by the window and thought for a long time, returned to the desk, and dialed the phone number of De Li Ke (Director of the Federal Investigation Bureau's New Jincheng Branch).

"You have become a big celebrity recently!", De Li Ke had a relatively close relationship with him. It was Director Luo Lan who chose to promote De Li Ke, which could be considered as pulling him up.

The relationship between the two was good before. Now, although they are far apart, because of the friction and conflict that occurred when they were in close contact, the relationship is even better.

"Don't say this, it's really terrible. I get a headache when I see those reporters."

"I called you this time because I want to chat with you about Lan Si."

De Li Ke quickly became serious, "What do you want to chat about?"

Director Luo Lan didn't speak immediately, and his silence also let De Li Ke know that this was definitely not a good thing.

After about ten seconds, Director Luo Lan said, "I have been thinking these two days that Lan Si's attack is very fierce and very fast, but we are very passive."

"This is because we have always been in a disadvantageous position, and we are passively defending."

"In war, the side that is brave in attacking can always obtain more benefits, while those who only know how to defend will eventually lose every inch of land under their feet!"

"We have been defending, constantly defending, constantly passively counterattacking, and we are chasing these criminals all over the world!"

"Lan Si's IQ is very high, and the discipline of their gang is very good. They basically won't leave us anything useful."

Having motive and execution ability, but no corpses, no murder weapons, and fundamentally unable to file a case—this is also the thing that makes people unable to control their emotions when facing these gangs and criminal groups with backgrounds.

The Lan Si family is very good at handling this aspect, and even Director Luo Lan knows that they have even specifically opened a "scavenger company," using the name of exterminating rats, termites, and cockroaches to quickly take over the aftermath work.

Because at this stage, exterminating rats and insects mainly uses poisonous gas. As long as they pull up a cordon outside, and people see white smoke starting to rise, they will walk far away.

They won't get close to observe what things those people transported out of the house.

And some chemical agents will also destroy the traces that might be left at the scene. They carefully wipe every object that might leave fingerprints and use chemical agents to wipe every place stained with blood.

They always handle it very carefully, making the scene have no value at all!

Facing such a criminal group that has already become a system and a scale, as well as their crimes, wanting to run after them, they can't run past them at all.

Director Luo Lan is very clear about these, and Director De Li Ke at Lan Si's base is also very clear.

"What do you plan to do?", Director De Li Ke asked this sentence, and he couldn't help but light a cigarette. He knew that he would soon need a cigarette to soothe his emotions.

Director Luo Lan stopped for a few seconds again, "You said last time that you already have people who have penetrated into the interior of the Lan Si family."

"It's the periphery!", Director De Li Ke emphasized.

"Whether it's the periphery or the interior, in short, he went in, right?"

Although somewhat reluctant, Director De Li Ke still said "Um."

"Very good, I have a plan that needs the help of these undercover agents."

"Instead of us always being unable to find their criminal evidence, it is better to directly create a criminal evidence to accuse them."

"I know that every gang's means of treating traitors are very cruel, and the Lan Si family is also like this. They like to carve words on people's bodies, then kill them and hang them on the street lamp."

"This is very good. I need at least one undercover agent to stand out, do something that betrays them, and then escape to the place we control."

"As long as they take action, we will catch them, catch them on the spot."

"With evidence, these people can be taken away by us for fierce interrogation. I don't believe that every one of them is a hard bone. If it really is, then I will crush every bone of theirs!"

"There will always be someone who will tell us what we want to know. The confessions and testimonies of these people will become the key to us solving the Lan Si family!"

In fact, at this moment, Director Luo Lan couldn't tell whether he really had an obsession with cracking down on gang criminal activities, or just to prove it to Lan Si, or others.

Evil cannot defeat justice!

After the other end of the phone was quiet for a while, a loud explosion sounded—

F***!
