The section chief of the Third Operations Section of the Central Unification Bureau was attacked last night and had one of his ears blown off. Such breaking news had already spread throughout Chongqing early in the morning. Tang Cheng, who pretended not to know, was informed of the incident by Zhang Jianghe after breakfast the next day. Hearing this, Tang Cheng just pretended to be slightly dissatisfied and looked at Zhang Jianghe, "Uncle, why are you so interested in this kind of gossip? Although I don't like those people in Zhongtong, how come you can sit in the position of section chief in Zhongtong? Maybe a loser?"
Tang Cheng's words made Zhang Jiang and Shen feel the same way. When he learned the news half an hour ago, he actually had the same attitude as Tang Cheng, thinking that this was just a rumor deliberately discrediting the Central Government. But when Zhang Jianghe came to the military camp and called his acquaintances at the military command headquarters to inquire, he realized that the news was not a rumor. Tang Cheng, who was complaining, saw that Zhang Jianghe's expression remained unchanged, and then he pretended to be surprised and said, "Is it possible that the Zhongtong people were really attacked last night?"
The right look of surprise on Tang Cheng's face was caught by Zhang Jianghe, and he, who had always been expressionless, spoke. "It's indeed true! When I first heard the news, I thought it was a rumor! As a result, I called an acquaintance at the headquarters to inquire. They said that the news came from an insider of the Central Unification Bureau, and that people from the Second Division Unable to stay idle, he also sent people to the hospital to conduct an investigation." Zhang Jianghe then informed Tang Cheng that the Second Military Reunification Office had sent people to investigate the matter. At this time, he had not thought that this matter was related to Tang Cheng.
It was Tang Cheng who shot and attacked the Zhongtong operatives last night. Tang Cheng originally wanted to shoot the Zhongtong leader who got out of the car last night, but when his finger hooked the trigger of the rifle, he suddenly Changed the decision and simply shot off one of the target's ears. Tangcheng attacked the Zhongtong's operatives in the city last night mainly because they wanted to cause chaos in the Zhongtong, so whether to kill people or not is of little significance.
At this moment, Tang Cheng pretended to be fine and suppressed a smile secretly. After chatting with Zhang Jianghe in the office for a while, just when he was about to get up and leave, the phone on Zhang Jianghe's office desk rang. It was the bureau chief who called Zhang Jianghe. After learning about the attack on Zhongtong last night, the bureau chief felt secretly happy and decided to investigate the matter. Tang Cheng has a hot temper and does not deal with the central government. This is something almost everyone in the military command headquarters knows. Therefore, the bureau leader must first understand the trajectory of Tang Cheng's activities last night.
Zhang Jianghe, who answered the phone, understood the purpose of the bureau's call and immediately hinted to Tang Cheng not to make any sound with his eyes. Tang Cheng, who was lying on the sofa, didn't know that the person calling at this moment was the bureau chief, and that the bureau chief was asking about his schedule last night on the phone. Seeing Zhang Jianghe's expression, Tang Cheng just curled his lips in boredom, but kept looking at Zhang Jianghe who answered the phone. Zhang Jianghe was dissatisfied with the reaction. When he heard the bureau chief asking about Tang Cheng's whereabouts last night, he immediately understood the bureau chief's intention.
But he went home last night. Tang Cheng stayed in the hotel in the city all night. If anyone knows what Tang Cheng did last night, it can only be those team members who were in the hotel in the city last night. But at this time, Zhang Jianghe couldn't say that he didn't know Tang Cheng's whereabouts last night, so he immediately and neatly said that Tang Cheng was monitoring the target last night. "Secretary, it's like this. We have a guy who specializes in transporting supplies for black marketeers in custody! Isn't it because the funds are a little tight recently? I was wondering if I could trace this line and get some funds for activities."
If it were Tang Cheng, Zhang Jianghe would never believe the answer he gave. But the director was used to being aloof. Even though he knew that there were people inside the military command doing this kind of thing, he didn't know that Zhang Jianghe was just deceiving him. "We just learned yesterday that someone among the black market dealers in the city hid a batch of drugs. Xiaowu went to keep a close eye on them last night, and I just got their action records from last night." Standing at the desk Zhang Jianghe started talking nonsense, and Tang Cheng couldn't help but give Zhang Jianghe a thumbs up to express his admiration.
Zhang Jianghe, who was trying to coax the audience, frowned and glared at Tang Cheng, then talked to the bureau officer on the other end of the phone for a few more words, and then finally hung up the phone. "You kid, tell me the truth, does the Central Unification matter have anything to do with you?" Zhang Jianghe hung up the phone, turned around and sat down across from Tangcheng, then took out a lighter and lit a cigarette, looking at him with deep eyes. In Tangcheng. Tang Cheng, who was stared at by Zhang Jianghe, didn't take this at all. He just grinned and then spoke.
"Uncle, look at you, you just told the bureau chief that I was assigned to keep an eye on people last night. You just put down the phone and you immediately seemed to be a different person. How do you want me to answer you? "Tang Cheng, who was lying on the sofa, looked at Zhang Jianghe with a smile. Seeing the dark-faced Zhang Jianghe, who seemed to be looking for something to throw over, Tang Cheng straightened his face and spoke. "Don't worry! I don't like those guys in Zhongtong, but I'm not a troublemaker. Why would I attack them if I have nothing to do!"
Although Tang Cheng's last words made Zhang Jianghe's expression soften a little, the suspicion in his eyes did not completely dissipate. "Oh! Think about it carefully! In the previous conflicts between me and Zhongtong, they were always looking for trouble first, and then I fought back. When did you see that it was me who made trouble for them first? Besides, I did it yesterday I was in the hotel that night, and those who were with me can all testify that if you said I couldn’t sleep well and went to attack Zhongtong’s people, what good would I gain?”
Tang Cheng's words sounded full of resentment, and were no different from Tang Cheng's previous attitude towards Zhongtong. After all, Zhang Jianghe also knew that Tang Cheng had never taken the initiative to cause trouble for Zhongtong. Zhang Jianghe was on the phone just now, saying that Tang Cheng went to target people last night, and there were specific records of the actions. So under Zhang Jianghe's coercion, Tang Cheng, who wanted to be lazy, was kicked out of the office and went to falsify last night's action records.
Tang Cheng walked out of Zhang Jianghe's office. Zhang Jianghe, still holding a cigarette in his mouth, stood up and walked to his desk and picked up the phone. The call was connected, and after Zhang Jianghe heard the familiar voice on the phone, he went straight to the topic without making much preparation. "Secretary, I have asked Xiao Wu carefully. What happened last night has nothing to do with him. Xiao Wu does not deal with those people in Zhongtong, but every time Xiao Wu responds passively, and he never takes the initiative to find someone. Get over Zhongtong’s troubles!”
Zhang Jianghe's explanation, which he spoke very quickly, made the bureau chief on the other end of the phone laugh out loud, "I just asked you what Xiao Wu did last night, not because I was suspecting that he was related to what happened last night. On the contrary, I am helping him. Only by knowing specifically about Xiao Wu's activities last night can we have a chance to talk when trouble comes." Zhang Jianghe naturally knew that the trouble mentioned by the bureau chief was referring to what happened last night. , but Zhang Jianghe was a little confused about the chance to speak at the end of the meeting.
"Okay, let me tell you straight! What happened last night has now reached Nan'an Villa! I don't know the specific content yet, but it is said that the Central Government has been summoned to Nan'an Villa. At present, all the high-level officials in Chongqing and the chairman of the committee obviously take this matter very seriously. You understand now! I am not doubting Xiao Wu, I am just preparing for a rainy day. In case the Central Unification Party uses the previous incident to bite Xiao Wu, we will Countermeasures must be thought of in advance.”
The explanation given by the bureau chief made Zhang Jianghe suddenly realize it. However, he did not prepare for a rainy day like the bureau chief did. Instead, he stayed in his office reading the newspaper and drinking tea as usual. He had already called his acquaintances at the headquarters and knew that the Central Unification still had no clue about the attack on the Central Unification operatives last night. In other words, Zhongtong has not found any useful clues. Even if they want to involve Tangcheng, they may not have any clues or evidence.
The bureau chief was worried on the phone just now that those in the Central Government might use the previous conflict with Tang Cheng as an excuse and then blame Tang Cheng for what happened last night. But Zhang Jianghe didn't think so. After all, more than a month had passed since the latest conflict between Tangcheng and Zhongtong. And since then, Tangcheng has been busy monitoring and tracking targets, and has no time to pay attention to those people in Zhongtong. If the Central Government wants to use trumped-up charges to rectify Tangcheng, Zhang Jianghe believes that not only the bureau chief will not agree, but even the person living in the South Bank Villa will not be willing.
The whole morning, Zhang Jianghe stayed in his office and did not come out, waiting for Tang Cheng to send the forged action records to his office. Zhang Jianghe informed Tang Cheng of the bureau chief's intentions and warned Tang Cheng. Cheng needs to be careful when going out these days. "Uncle, don't worry, I'm not a newbie who doesn't know anything!" Tang Cheng, who had been mentally prepared, just grinned when he heard this.
The bureau chief's worries were justified. After finding no usable clues at the scene of the incident, the furious Zhongtong officials and others immediately began to secretly investigate people in the city who had such long-range shooting capabilities. I don't know if there are people behind it, or if the people in Zhongtong are not smart enough. Tangcheng, which has not been showing off recently, is still listed as one of the suspects.
However, Zhongtong was smarter this time. Instead of confronting Tang Cheng head-on, they planned to secretly stalk Tang Cheng first. But what they didn't expect was that after being reminded and warned by Zhang Jianghe, Tang Cheng had no intention of leaving the military camp. Tang Cheng had been staying in the army and not going out, which made the Zhongtong secretly monitor his plan. It was already on the verge of failure before it even started.
