By the next day, Fan Keqin summoned all the people with just a few phone calls. He asked them to gather at the pier and followed him there with his luggage.
It is said that after Lu Xiaoya knew that Fan Keqin was going on a business trip, she prepared a lot of clothes for him. However, Fan Keqin felt that there were too many things and gave her vicious blows such as throwing raw fish, bombshells, and scorpion tail poison needles. After that, we finally agreed to reduce our luggage by half.
So Fan Keqin only needed to carry one suitcase and arrived at the pier. Everyone directly chartered a fast boat, the kind that burned oil, and rushed to Chengdu.
By the way, Chengdu is not far from Chongqing...if it were placed in some space country or something, it would have to travel through nearly half of the country. But that’s it, after all, it’s all Kawauchi.
So nothing happened along the way, and we arrived in Chengdu soon. This time, there were five people traveling with Fan Keqin, Zhuang Xiaoman, Tong Fei, Ji Gang, Zhao Debiao and Bai Fengtai.
After a few people landed ashore, they took a taxi (rickshaw) directly to the Chengdu Branch of the Security Bureau. The Chengdu branch is located on Wuhou Street, which is quite prosperous. There are many traders on both sides, and there is a constant flow of people coming and going.
In the middle of Wuhou Street, Fan Keqin and others stopped at a compound with a sentry at the door and paid. He showed his ID directly and walked in.
The gatekeeper had already called up, so as soon as everyone reached the second floor, they saw a man under fifty years old, wearing a navy blue tunic suit, coming up to them. Next to him was a twenty-year-old woman wearing full military uniform. Walking just behind this person, he should be a secretary or something.
This man, who was nearly fifty years old, saw Fan Keqin walking in the middle and leading everyone. He immediately smiled and said: "Oh, Director Fan. It's a sin to miss the welcome. Why didn't you give me a slap in the face?" You can call me or greet me in person."
Fan Keqin also smiled and shook hands with him, and said, "Is it Director Huang? After we landed, we didn't want to cause trouble, so we came directly with our brothers to make trouble."
"No, Director Fan has arrived in Chengdu. It's too late to rejoice." Director Huang waved his hand and said, "Come on, Director Fan and brothers, come to my office first." Then he turned to face that person. The woman said: "Shasha, go and arrange the best house for Director Fan and the brothers. In addition, book a private room in Fushou Building. Let them prepare some of the freshest ingredients in advance. Director Fan and I will do that in the evening They go there together."
"Yes." The Sasha woman agreed, smiled at Fan Keqin and others, then turned and left.
"This... Director Huang is too enthusiastic. Fan deserves it." Fan Keqin said: "I don't think it's better, just have a casual meal."
"That's not possible." Director Huang said: "Director Fan is the chief officer of the headquarters. It is an honor for me, Mr. Huang, to come to Chengdu to guide the inspection work. I hope Director Fan will appreciate it."
So who is the higher-ranking director of the local branch or Fan Keqin? In fact, normally speaking, they are on the same level. But if you think about it, will the mayors of the capital in future generations be the same as mayors in other places? Although they are all called mayor.
Well, Fan Keqin is the division chief, but if the branch director of a local branch is transferred to the headquarters, he is usually a division-level cadre. But Fan Keqin is at the core of the headquarters, so he is naturally different from the local branch director. But in terms of military rank, the director of an important branch in a big city also holds the rank of general. For example, places like Shanghai Branch, Peking Branch, and Tianjin Branch.
Director Huang of the Chengdu Branch also holds the title of major general. After all, this is a land of abundance. It has been very famous since ancient times and is a very good place with abundant resources and treasures.
While exchanging pleasantries, everyone was led by Director Huang to his office. After entering, Director Huang was a good person and helped Fan Keqin and others get tea. Started to ask questions.
This Director Huang is called Huang Yanzhao, and he is forty-nine years old. He was originally the leader of the inspection team of the Second Department of the Ministry of National Defense. Later, when the Security Bureau was established, he thought it was an opportunity. I took the initiative to apply to the Security Bureau, and I still have some abilities, especially in the area of internal business. I am indeed very capable.
However, Sun Guoxin didn't like him too much because he was tactful. I think he's a bit too smooth. What he likes is the kind of Qian Jinxun who has strong ability to do things. Although he has many friends, he has a natural ability to get close to people, not the type who is too smooth like him. Therefore, he was directly transferred from the headquarters. Because the other party was capable, and he had served as an inspection team leader in the Ministry of National Defense, he was appointed director of the Chengdu Branch.
Not to mention, for people who are greasy, they only look greasy on the inside. However, after this kind of person reaches the local government and becomes the leader, his smooth energy towards the people below is reduced a lot. Therefore, in the initial stage, Huang Yanzhao kept Chengdu in order. Sun Guoxin was quite satisfied.
But later, especially now, the espionage elements in Chengdu have become more and more rampant, and Huang Yanzhao naturally does not like Sun Guoxin again. So when Fan Keqin arrived in Chengdu this time, he still had the secondary task of inspecting Huang Yanzhao.
Fan Keqin calmly exchanged greetings for a while and asked, "Director Huang, did you hear that the head of the Military Command Chengdu Station was transferred back?"
"I heard about it." Huang Yanzhao said: "It is said that Boss Dai was sent back to Chongqing for accountability. The reason is that some time ago, it seemed that someone was not protected."
"Yes." Fan Keqin said: "To be honest with Director Huang, I am here to deal with this matter. Our Security Bureau really doesn't know the whole story, right?"
"I don't know." Huang Yanzhao said with certainty: "This time it was after the incident that Boss Dai asked Station Commander Wu to go back directly, and we heard the news. In other words, what Station Commander Wu and others did before was very secretive. . Could this... be done by... the mole? "
When Fan Keqin heard this, Huang Yanzhao's thinking was quite clear. He actually thought it was because of an insider. Otherwise, how could something happen if it was so hidden? However, he still pretended to be slightly surprised and asked: "Oh? The spy, what does Director Huang know?"
"Hey." Huang Yanzhao waved his hand and said, "Just a wild guess, a wild guess. I thought that this matter was so secret that even our security bureau didn't know about it. If it hadn't been discovered afterwards, I probably wouldn't have known anything about it until now. Rumor. You see, it’s so secretive, but something happened, so I wondered if there was a mole within the local military command.”
"Yes." Fan Keqin nodded and said, "What Director Huang said does make sense..."
