Zhongtong’s secret office, bamboo processing factory.
Xu Enzeng stood bent over in the office, holding the microphone to his ear with one hand and wiping the cold sweat on his head with a handkerchief in the other hand. He kept nodding and bending as if he could see on the other end of the phone.
After a long time, not knowing what the other person said, he straightened up suddenly, a smile appeared on his face and he immediately made a promise.
"Yes, yes, Minister Chen. I understand my humble position. I will give an explanation to the superiors and the innocent police officers as soon as possible. Don't worry."
After saying this, Xu Enzeng gently put the microphone back on the compression spring, then slumped down on the chair, lying there breathing heavily.
"Seat?"
At this time, Mou Zhiye knocked on the door and walked in and asked in a low voice. Seeing that the other party didn't respond, he tiptoed to the desk and stuck his head over.
"It has been found out that since yesterday, police officers from various police stations in the mountain city have taken to the streets to protest on the grounds that we have abused lynching and torture.
It was just a small-scale parade at the beginning, but today most of the police officers are participating in it. I heard that some people went to the national government headquarters and clashed with the guards.
I contacted Director Bai of the Yamashiro Police Department, but he said that this was a spontaneous action by low-level staff, and even he couldn’t stop it~~Ouch~”
Before Mou Zhiye could finish his words, he was slapped in the face by Xu Enzeng who suddenly stood up and spun around in circles several times.
The swollen cheeks that Zhu Liuxian had beaten him a few days ago had just subsided, and now they were swollen again. He covered his face and felt extremely aggrieved and a little angry.
He was running around here and there about Xu Enzeng's affairs, inquiring around for information, but he got this result, how could it not be disappointing.
But Xu Enzeng didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did. After beating the person, he put his hands on his hips and puffed out his cheeks, and his chest heaved violently, like a big toad.
This is really a dragon swimming in shallow water and being teased by a shrimp, a tiger falling in the sky and being bullied by a dog, a successful cat being more powerful than a tiger, and a phoenix losing its feathers not as good as a bird again~
Think about the majesty you had when you were in Jinling, and look now, even a small police chief dares to refute the face of the Central Government, sad, sad!
After being sulky for a while, Xu Enzeng picked up the phone again angrily, gave Bai Wenzhi's number to the operator, and waited in silence for more than ten seconds.
"Hey, who is it?"
Soon, Bai Wenzhi's voice with a Lu provincial accent came over the phone, and his tone was very majestic.
Xu Enzeng sneered and immediately announced his home, thinking that if the other party couldn't give him a reasonable explanation today, the matter would never be over.
But the next second he moved the phone away from his ear, stared at the phone for a moment, then looked at Mou Zhiye and said with disbelief.
"Hang up my phone? This bastard dares to hang up my phone!"
"Bang!"
In a rage, Xu Enzeng slammed the phone to the ground with all his strength. Parts flew everywhere, and some even hit Mou Zhiye's face.
Mou Zhiye lowered his head deeply, not daring to make any move, but there was a fleeting look of joy in his eyes.
Those who humiliate others will always be humiliated. Xu Enzeng humiliated him and was humiliated by others in the blink of an eye. It is a clear law of nature, and good and evil will be punished.
This is just the beginning. If things outside are not handled well, the deputy director named Xu will be in bad luck. Should he try another way...
In an instant, Mou Zhiye thought of a lot. He secretly glanced at his immediate boss, who was furious and helpless, and gradually came up with a bold idea.
On the other side, Xu Enzeng's mind was racing. The police commotion must be quelled as soon as possible. Even with the help of Minister Chen, the matter cannot be delayed for too long.
The police station is the cornerstone of maintaining public security and order in the mountain city. If chaos continues for a long time, I, the "chief culprit", will be fully responsible.
In addition, although there was no evidence, Bai Wenzhi's tough response made Xu Enzeng feel that there must be someone instigating the other party, or at least supporting him.
Otherwise, the police would not have had the courage to hold such a large-scale protest in the capital. As he was thinking about it, a name suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Zuo Zhong!"
That's right, there is no one but that little bastard surnamed Zuo who dares to risk the disapproval of the world, inciting police officers to cause trouble, and uses such despicable methods.
Xu Enzeng suddenly had an idea and thought he had discovered a blind spot. He clenched his right hand into a fist and pounded the table hard, making a muffled sound.
If he really beat the snake and suffered the consequences, he should have firmly pinned the charge of colluding with dissidents on the other party's head when he was in the interrogation room.
Rather than considering the impact and looking forward and backward, hiding behind the one-way glass to watch the show, the result is not only humiliating, but also violently angry.
Xu Enzeng, Xu Enzeng, can't you be more courageous!
Thinking of this, his intestines almost turned green with regret, and he wished he could give himself a slap in the face, but despite being annoyed, he also came up with a solution.
"Mou Zhiye, go to the General Affairs Bureau immediately to pay a sum of money, and part of it will be given to the young police officer named Ning, so that he can stop talking nonsense.
The other part was given to those bastards who made trouble, telling them that the matter had something to do with the underground party, and that the Central Committee was just doing business.
By the way, if we let the news out to the outside world, we will say that this incident was instigated by dissidents, and no newspapers or individuals are allowed to discuss it indiscriminately. "
After all, having been a division chief for many years, Xu Enzeng was very aware of the moral character of those black men. They were all greedy for money, lustful, and as timid as rats.
As long as there is money to take, and the matter is related to the underground party, with a combination of carrot and stick, the situation will soon be under control.
Even if Bai Wenzhi had the support of the military commander, he would not dare to force his subordinates to continue causing trouble. Once this kind of thing is leaked, he will be shot.
The expressionless Mou Zhiye nodded, turned around and prepared to go out to execute the order, but Xu Enzeng added in a deep voice.
"Contact Li Qiwu again and tell him to meet tonight. Mother, Xipi, promised to cooperate, but there is no news yet. I don't have the patience to wait any longer."
"yes."
Having completely seen Xu Enzeng's face, Mou Zhiye was not prepared to say any more words to the other party. He responded and left the office without looking back.
As he walked, his steps became firm and his eyes became sharp. Since your surname is Xu, you are unkind, so don't blame Mou for being unjust.
Secretly making up his mind, Mou Zhiye made two phone calls and went to the general affairs department to get the money with a relaxed look, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his body.
That night.
A black shadow appeared outside a courtyard in the urban area. The visitor looked around furtively, then raised his hand and knocked gently on the courtyard door.
The door to the courtyard was opened immediately, and the black figure ducked in, taking off the hat on his head and the scarf wrapped around his face, revealing his face.
"Deputy Director Xu, tell your people not to call my office phone number in the future. All calls there will be monitored. Do you want to kill me?"
The black shadow was none other than Li Qiwu, secretary to the director of the Military Command. He gritted his teeth and looked at Xu Enzeng who opened the door for him, clenching his fists eager to try.
This damn guy dared to threaten him with Zuo Zhong's affairs. Considering Dai Chunfeng's suspicion, he could only pretend to agree to cooperate first, and then look for opportunities to counterattack.
I never expected that the other party would go so far. He didn't care whether he would be exposed or not. He called the office directly and asked to meet. This was courting death.
Facing Li Qiwu's questioning, Xu Enzeng smiled. The next moment, he suddenly turned around and slapped Mou Zhiye in the face as an apology.
Mou Zhiye seemed to have foreseen this outcome. He calmly wiped the blood flowing from his nostrils and stood respectfully, his attitude still respectful.
Seeing this scene, Li Qiwu's anger suddenly disappeared. He took a deep look at Mou Zhiye and followed Xu Enzeng into the room.
After closing the door, he pointed out: "Deputy Director Xu, you are not a simple subordinate. You can endure what others cannot tolerate, and what others cannot tolerate, so you have to be careful."
Li Qiwu's way of dealing with the world is just three words: tolerance, waiting, and ruthlessness. He saw his own shadow in the Zhongtong agent just now.
It is very dangerous to use this kind of person as a subordinate. He may be stabbed at some point. As a "partner", he must remind the other party.
Xu Enzeng didn't take these words seriously at all. He had beaten many people, and Mou Zhiye, a small acting intelligence chief, could still make a huge difference.
He asked Li Qiwu to sit down, and went straight to the point and asked if he had any latest information about Zuo Zhong or Dai Chunfeng. This was also the purpose of his request to meet.
"this."
Hearing this question, Li Qiwu looked embarrassed and didn't want to answer, but found that Xu Enzeng's face became increasingly gloomy, and finally chose to speak.
"Dai Chunfeng has been keeping a low profile recently. It is said that he has studied Chinese medicine, holding a copy of "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" all day long, and leaving all matters within the office to that bastard Zuo Zhong.
As for the man named Zuo, he started processing official documents and talking to people as soon as he came back. Those who didn't know better thought he was the director of the Military Command Bureau. He was a villain, bah. "
Li Qiwu spat when he said this, his tone full of envy, jealousy and hatred. In his opinion, due to his relationship with Dai Chunfeng, the position of deputy director was originally his.
""Shen Nong's Materia Medica"?"
Xu Enzeng sneered after hearing this. He didn't believe that a man named Dai could learn Chinese medicine. It was a big joke that a spy did not kill people, but instead treated diseases and saved people.
There must be something wrong here. Is this a code book for Dai Chunfeng to communicate with his informants, or is it a secret list?
After guessing for a long time, he asked Li Qiwu to get the name and version of the publishing organization of the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" and prepared to find a similar book and give it to the intelligence analysts to take a look.
As for Zuo Zhong, let the other party be proud for a while, and then wait until he gets the handle to deal with this shameless villain.
Li Qiwu readily agreed to Xu Enzeng's request. Dai Chunfeng did not keep any secrets on what he was reading, so the matter was not difficult to handle.
At the same time, Li Qiwu also put forward his own conditions, that is, the Central Commander should assist him in completing the anti-corruption task in the military, such as telling him who can and cannot be arrested.
No one knows these political or military groups better than Zhongtong. After hearing this, Xu Enzeng readily accepted it. It was just a matter of checking some information, and it was not a big deal.
Then, the two of them muttered and discussed for more than an hour, then ended their meeting and walked out of the house, and left the courtyard in separate cars.
When the taillights of the cars on both sides slowly disappeared, a head appeared above the roadside fence. Wu Chunyang, who was responsible for tracking Xu Enzeng, looked into the distance with cold eyes.
Li Qiwu, Li Qiwu, if there is a way to heaven, don’t take it. If there is no door to hell, you can go to it yourself.
If the bureau chief knew about colluding with the Central Committee and betraying his brothers, even a hundred heads would not be enough to cut him off.
Unfortunately, it was too dark to take pictures, otherwise today would be the death anniversary of Li. Wu Chunyang nimbly jumped off the wall and disappeared into the night.
