Chapter 168 New Mission

I just don't know if that guy will take the medicine.

The middle-aged man thought so in his heart, and soon he smiled and shook his head. With that guy's suspicious character, he would definitely not eat it.

Just like the last time he asked someone to prescribe the medicine for him, he had to decoct it himself. That guy would fill the room with the smell of Chinese medicine every day, but he was sure that not a drop of the medicine went into that guy's stomach.

In fact, the medicine he prescribed last time was good medicine, not toxic at all.

This time was different. He didn't expect the guy to eat it this time, because the poison was on the surface of the medicine and it could be eaten by skin contact or smell.

Now he just hopes that guy can hold it for a while longer.

In his eyes, the middle-aged man with a hoarse voice seemed to be a dying man.

Soon, the image of Li Yancheng appeared in his mind again. The reason why all his previous plans failed was because of this young man.

There were two things he didn't expect. The first was that he didn't expect that a man who had been shot in the head and who all doctors said was dead would be dragged to live a little longer by this young man, and he could even wake up and talk.

When he got the news, he was shocked beyond words.

The second thing he didn't expect was that the poison brought by the higher-ups was ineffective in front of this young man. It was able to fool so many doctors, even the forensic doctors of the Public Security Bureau, but it was ineffective in front of this young man. This also made his subsequent plans directly fail.

Not only did the plan fail, but also the peripheral personnel that he had spent a lot of money and effort to recruit over the years were lost.

What’s more important is that he almost got himself involved. If he hadn’t been prepared for this day, he might have been a target by now.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man slowly let out a sigh of relief.

Killed that young man?

If there is a chance, it is inevitable. If it weren't for this young man who suddenly appeared, I wouldn't be forced into such a desperate situation this time, and I wouldn't have to complete the task myself.

As long as he has enough time, it is easy for him to complete the task.

He is now waiting for the last batch of supplies to arrive. As long as he gets this batch of supplies, he can complete the task in an instant and then fly away.

As for the so-called organization behind him, he didn't care at all. It seemed that this mission was assigned to him by those people hiding on the island, but in fact it was someone else.

But he was not confident in either side, and he had seen many tricks of killing the dog after the rabbit was dead.

That's why he got rid of that woman so quickly in January. Keeping her would be a nuisance.

He was now enjoying the future here, but the batch of goods that he and the hoarse man were thinking about so much would not be in their hands in 200 days, let alone 20 days.

It would be strange if two people who both have evil intentions towards each other could end up well with each other.

……

Late at night on the 23rd, an order to start the operation was transmitted from Beijing to several other provinces and cities via radio waves, and the operatives in various places began to carry out the order in an orderly manner according to the arranged plan.

At around 2:00 a.m. on the 24th, the central courtyard of the Operation Area was brightly lit.

In the small conference room, Deputy Director Zhong sat there with a frown on his face. The ashtray in front of him was already full of cigarette butts.

"Jingle Bell……"

When the phone rang, Deputy Director Zhong was shocked. He took a deep breath and answered the phone call that was specially called to the conference room.

"Hello, I'm Zhong Yuanzhu."

"Hello, Director Zhong. I'm from Su Province. Everything is going smoothly here. According to the list you sent, all thirteen suspects have been arrested and are being interrogated."

"Thank you for your hard work, comrades. After this mission is completed, we will report you to our superiors for credit."

"You're welcome, Director Zhong. It's all my duty. You should still wait for calls from other places. I won't bother you for now. You are welcome to come and visit us when you have the chance."

"must"

After hanging up the phone, Director Zhong breathed a sigh of relief. He picked up the pen on the table and crossed out Su Sheng's name on the notebook in front of him. He then looked up at the clock on the wall and wrote down the time.

The phone call from Su Province seemed to have opened Pandora's box, and from then on the phone started ringing non-stop.

While he was on the phone, the yard outside the meeting room became lively. Cars drove in from time to time. It seemed that an action team was returning from closing the net.

Not long after, Lao Xu pushed the door open and walked in. When he saw Director Zhong answering the phone, he didn't say anything and didn't walk in. When Director Zhong looked at him, he nodded with a smile on his face, gave a thumbs up, then turned around and walked out of the meeting room again.

Seeing Xu Guishan's reaction, Director Zhong's expression seemed more relaxed.

After hanging up the phone and crossing out the name of a province in the notebook, he was just about to get up and go out to take a look when the phone rang again.

"Hello, I'm Zhong Yuanzhu."

……

The phone calls lasted from about 2:20 in the morning to 3:45. The fourteen provinces and cities that took joint action tonight have reported all their results.

There were a total of 185 criminal suspects in the organization's material distribution line, and all of them were brought to justice without a single one escaping.

Deputy Director Zhong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that all the names and numbers recorded in the notebook had been crossed out. Only two days had passed since the interrogation until all the criminals were brought to justice, and they had achieved a phased victory. It was not easy.

If it had happened in the past, it would definitely be worth making a big fuss about and would have had to be reported to the higher-ups, but this time, Lao Zhong didn't have that idea.

The sword of Damocles still hangs over his head. As long as the case is not completely solved, the crisis he faces will not be resolved.

Think about Lao Fang!
Alas, thinking of Director Fang, Deputy Director Zhong sighed deeply.

Then he thought of the long conversation he had with Director Fang that night, and the conclusion they finally came to was that they both agreed that the problems in the bureau should not have been completely resolved.

They seriously suspected that the mastermind behind this might be in the police station.

He has been keeping this matter in his heart recently and hasn't told anyone.

This time the arrest operation was strictly controlled within a certain area. He also wanted to see if there was any problem in that area. He wanted to take a gamble, and the price was his future.

The result is not bad. From the current perspective, he won the bet this time. There is no problem in one place, at least all the comrades on the front line are fine.

There will definitely be no problem with the new Director Shen because he also knows about this operation.

Now that the First Division can be ruled out, the next step is to have the First Division begin secretly investigating the Second Division, the Third Division, the Security Division, and everyone in the bureau, including several other leaders except him and Director Shen.

Lao Zhong's expression became a little solemn. He didn't know whether Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong dared to take on this task.

Because once the news of this matter leaks out, they will definitely become public enemies.

Well, let's go and test their words, and let their subordinates handle the interrogation first.

Thinking of this, Deputy Director Zhong stood up and walked out of the small conference room, asking someone outside to call Xu Guishan and Su Xiaotong over.

The two men came very quickly. The interrogation was being carried out by the subordinates, and they just looked around the interrogation rooms. They rushed over after receiving the notice.

"Clock Bureau"

"Clock Bureau"

"Come on, take a seat. Xiao Wang, please close the door when you leave. No one is allowed to approach the conference room."

"Yes"

After hearing Director Zhong's order, Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong looked at each other. They saw deep doubts in each other's eyes and wondered what had happened.

After Director Zhong's secretary Xiao Wang poured water for the two men and left and closed the door, Lao Xu asked, "Director Zhong, is there a problem with the mission in any area?"

"No"

Director Zhong shook his head and picked up the notebook on the table to indicate: "As of 3:45 a.m., when the last call came from Yangcheng, the net-closing operation in all places tonight was successfully completed."

Hearing him say this, Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong both breathed a sigh of relief, but then they became confused again. Why are they so nervous? Putting down his notebook, Director Zhong took a sip from his teacup and continued, "Not only did they catch the man in Yangcheng, they also found a batch of goods in the basement of one of their homes. After their surprise interrogation on the spot, the man confessed that the goods had only arrived in the past two days.

Guishan, Xiaotong, why don't you try to guess what those goods are."

"Gold?" Lao Xu blurted out before he finished speaking.

"Yes, there are more than 100 kilograms of gold in that batch."

"hiss……"

This number made Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong gasp at the same time.

More than one hundred... kilograms!
"There should be guns and ammunition, or spare parts." After taking a deep breath, Su Xiaotong thought for a while and said.

"Yes, Xiaotong is right. There are spare parts and bullets. After on-site inspection, it can be assembled into three long guns and two short guns, 300 rounds of bullets matching the long and short guns, and a heavy amount of necessities for making explosives.

You two can guess what else it is."

and also……

"cash?"

This time Director Zhong did not rush to speak. Instead, he reached out and picked up the cigarettes on the table and threw one to each of his two favorite generals. After lighting one for himself, he let out a long sigh.

"Alas... it's even scarier than cash. Comrades in Yangcheng found no less than three million counterfeit bills in that basement, and... no less than 10 million kilograms of national grain coupons, which were also counterfeit."

Damn it...

Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong cursed at the same time, their eyes widened like cowbells. If it weren't for their eye sockets blocking their view, it felt like their eyeballs would fall to the ground.

Millions of dollars in cash and tens of millions of kilograms of food coupons, if they were to flow into the market, the damage they would cause would be much more serious than the damage they had previously planned to cause in the instrument factory.

And they have reason to believe that these millions of cash are definitely just a test of the waters. If everything goes well, then they will definitely flow in continuously.

If this channel had not been destroyed this time, then...

Just thinking about it makes me break out in a cold sweat.

"Comrade Li Yancheng has made another great contribution!"

In shock, Lao Xu suddenly said something.

"Guishan, you are right. Comrade Yan Cheng has indeed made a great contribution this time. If he had not suddenly come up with the idea of ​​re-interrogating Chen Guangyao and obtained this important information, the consequences would be unimaginable once these things really flowed into the market."

After hearing the story from the comrades in Yangcheng on the phone just now, cold sweat broke out on Lao Zhong's back.

This scene reminded him of four or five years ago, when Xiaoshi was frantically printing legal tender. The harm caused by that legal tender was comparable to extending the war by three years, killing people without bloodshed.

After saying that, Lao Zhong tapped the table with his fingers, pulling Xu Guishan and Su Xiaotong out of their shock.

"Okay, you just need to know about this. I called you here because I have a new task for you."

Upon hearing that there was a new task, Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong both sat up straight at the same time, looked at Deputy Director Zhong, and waited quietly for the next steps.

"As for the mastermind behind this, I believe that we won't be able to find out anything from the people we arrested this time. You two should withdraw from the interrogation and hand it over to the people below.

The new task I am going to assign to you, please listen carefully, it is assigned to both of you, not just you alone."

Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong's eyes. Of course, they understood the leader's implication, which was that the matter must be kept strictly confidential and only the two of them knew about it and had to carry it out.

After saying this, Director Zhong paused for a moment, frowned slightly, and thought about something. After a while, he shook his head again: "No, it's just that the two of you may be a bit too much, so I will give you two more places.

You two can find two more people, whom you absolutely trust and who obey your orders unconditionally, and then report the list to me.

Next, listen carefully. I want you to start a secret investigation of all the leaders and middle-level cadres in the bureau from daybreak, including the bureau headquarters, including the Second Division, the Third Division, and the Security Division. "

After hearing the task assigned by Director Zhong, Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong did not show any abnormality on their faces, they just became a little solemn.

The performance of these two people aroused Lao Zhong's interest.

"Why do I feel like you guys aren't surprised by my order?"

Facing the leader's question, Lao Xu nodded and said, "Director Zhong, we are indeed not surprised. To be honest, Xiaotong and I have analyzed this privately more than once, and he has also told me in detail about the cases that happened before I was transferred here and are related to this case.

After analysis, we both agreed that the problem must still lie within our group, and that this person had the ability to access almost all cases.

By the way, Director Zhong, one thing I want to point out is that the cases this person has access to are ongoing cases, not just closed cases. "

"Guishan, just say what you want to say. Don't hide it. There are only three of us here today. Are you trying to say that only Director Fang and I can have access to it?"

"No, leader, you misunderstood what our director meant." Before Lao Xu could speak, Su Xiaotong on the side explained first.

"On the contrary, our director and I eliminated you and Director Fang first."

"Give me a reason why you excluded us first?"

"Needless to say, if it was really one of you two, you would have done almost everything you should and shouldn't have done. How could you be eaten away by us bit by bit like now?"

Without giving Lao Zhong a chance to speak, Su Xiaotong continued, “We analyzed that although this person could get news about the progress of the case, he did not get it in real time, but only after the fact.

This means that although he can get information about a case that we are currently investigating, he still has to make an effort to find out on his own.

The fact that this person was able to find out the information successfully also indirectly reflects that the person who inadvertently leaked the case may not have suspected him and thought he was one of their own, so he never cared about it.

From this point we can also see that this person has absolute power. According to our analysis and judgment, he should be a deputy director at the very least, and the people below him dare not offend him.

I don't dare to offend him, but I don't doubt his motives for asking about the case. Director Zhong, there aren't many people like him. The middle-level officials in the bureau can actually be ruled out, including those in the Security Department."

All departments and offices in the bureau belong to the second line. When someone working on the second line takes the initiative to inquire about the case, even a fool would know that there is something wrong with this person.

Although the Security Department is on the front line, their job responsibilities are mainly security and self-inspection, not external investigations, and they do not come into contact with specific cases, so people in the Security Department will not inquire about the case.

In fact, the only ones who could avoid arousing suspicion were the first, second and third departments responsible for investigating the case and carrying out operations.

Now that Department No. 1 has been excluded, there are actually only Departments No. 2 and No. 3 left, with a total of six directors and deputy directors.

No, there are only five now. The Second Division does not have a director for the time being. Deputy Director Dai Jun is in charge of the work. The former director Hong Dingguo is still sitting on the bench in the bureau. The result of his handling will only come out after the case is completely over.

After listening to Su Xiaotong's analysis, Lao Zhong didn't say anything. He took several puffs of his cigarette before nodding and saying, "According to your analysis, we will secretly investigate the five directors and deputy directors of the Second and Third Divisions."

"Director Zhong, why did you exclude Hong Dingguo?"

Seeing that the leader did not mention investigating Hong Dingguo, Lao Xu was a little puzzled.

"Because Lao Hong had saved Director Zhong once, the leaders subconsciously thought that Lao Hong was definitely one of their own."

These words were said by Su Xiaotong. It was hard to tell whether he meant this in a yin-yang way or something else, but in any case, they sounded like thunder to Director Zhong.

"It's my problem." He quickly raised his hand to indicate.

"Hong Dingguo cannot be excluded. We must investigate. After daybreak, we will start investigating these six people. You can decide the specific order. I will only look at the results. We must keep it confidential to anyone."

"Director Zhong, you just said that Xiaotong and I can pick two more people to cooperate with us."

"Yes, do you have a choice?"

Lao Xu turned his head and looked at his deputy beside him, wanting him to name two suitable candidates.

Su Xiaotong did not refuse and said two names as soon as he opened his mouth.

"The captain of the first action team, Zeng Honglin, and Li Yancheng."

"Who? Li Yancheng?"

Director Zhong was not surprised at the captain of Team One, but why did he call a doctor who had no experience in investigating cases?
