Chapter 435 Breakthrough (Three more updates, please subscribe)

In the chairman's office of Jinhao Real Estate Group, Jin Bolong looked at the video TV news in front of him, his face as dark as iron.

"—Operation Bright Wind, co-planned by Mayor Huo Bangguo and the Security Bureau, is still ongoing. Reportedly, over 3400 gang members were arrested today, and another 4200 were summoned. Their charges include drug manufacturing, drug trafficking, murder, robbery, fraud, forced transactions, extortion, provoking disturbances, illegal detention, forced prostitution, and other crimes. Let's take a look at the Security Bureau's offices; they're truly packed."

"Today at 12: sharp, the Security Bureau officially arrested the three leaders of the Loyalty Gang, 'Sand Bear' Jiang Shan, 'Iron Leopard' Tie Anrui, and 'Golden Bull' Lü Hao. Reliable information indicates that the Security Bureau has solid evidence sufficient to incriminate the three. The source of this evidence may be related to Li Shiji, the eldest son of 'Black Tiger' Li Zhaokang."

"In addition, the Security Bureau has issued arrest warrants for two of the Zhongyi Gang's leaders, 'Ba Quan' Yan Mei and 'Zhong Jian' Anderson. They are also on the Security Bureau's arrest list and are currently on the run."

"The General Police Headquarters issued a statement congratulating the Security Bureau on its achievements, while also implicitly expressing dissatisfaction with the police being excluded from the Security Bureau's 'Bright Wind' operation."

"Let's turn the camera to Pipeline 3441 in Area C. This place is also called Qingyun Street. It's a famous gathering place for drug addicts in the Ninth Base City. You can see that almost all the stores here are closed. There are many people wandering around here. They look very bad. They must have been cut off from their drug supply—"

"Let's randomly interview a few passersby and ask them what they think of the Security Bureau's 'Bright Wind' operation."

"Great! The Security Bureau should have done this a long time ago! Admiral Thunder is awesome!"

"It would be best if we could clean up the police station in the Ninth Base City as well. The public security in our city has been terrible in recent years."

Jin Bolong watched the news quietly. Although he didn't show any expression on his face, he had pinched deep finger marks on the armrests on both sides of his seat.

At this moment, the group's intelligence director sent a video communication request.

"Chairman, the Security Bureau's Inspection Center just issued an announcement stating that the three forensic appraisal agencies they commissioned found no trace of any drugs in the bodies of the Li family members or the arrested suspects, nor did they detect any signs of being under the influence of illusions."

Jin Bolong looked incredulous. "Are you sure there's nothing wrong with their test report? Could someone have influenced them?"

Is Li Zhaokang really crazy? Not only did he hide drugs in his own home, but he also let his bodyguards and subordinates take the initiative to attack the law enforcement officers of the Security Bureau?
He has been clean for decades, how could he do such a stupid thing?

In the past, people like Li Zhaokang would never have had anything to do with Jin Bolong.

Jin Bolong would not care about the life or death of a gang leader.

But the situation is different now. The properties he rented to Li Zhaokang have been sealed off by the Security Bureau on the grounds of "involvement in organized crime."

"This possibility is unlikely. Public opinion is currently paying close attention to this case, and the Socialist Party to which Li Zhaokang belongs is also keeping a close eye on it."

The intelligence director smiled wryly and said, "With the election approaching, Li Zhaokang's case will greatly affect their chances. They won't let go of any suspicious areas. And as far as I know, the equipment and technology of these three testing agencies are very advanced."

Jin Bolong frowned. "So, who is this General Lei Ting? What's his connection to our Jinhao Group? Can you convince him to release these properties?"

"Chairman, this Admiral Thunder is quite mysterious. He was personally recruited by the Second Commander-in-Chief of the Security Bureau, and his internal information is SSS+ encrypted."

The Intelligence Director said with a serious expression, "We've learned some information about him through special connections. Before joining the Security Bureau, he was probably serving in the 'Divine Eagle Brigade,' a secretive force on Shenji Island on Tianji Star."

"Condor Brigade?"

Jin Bolong couldn't help but frown, and a solemn look appeared in his eyes.

In addition to the four continents and twenty-eight islands, Tianji Star actually has some larger uninhabited islands.

For eight hundred years, the Earth Federation has been helpless against the Four Dynasties and Central Continent, but it has occupied several large uninhabited islands overseas. They have invested heavily in building defense bases inside these islands, developing the barren land on the islands to grow crops and cultivate spiritual medicines.

The Divine Eagle Brigade is the core force of the Federation's garrison on Tianji Star. Its eliteness and level of secrecy surpass those of the renowned Tianji Special Warfare Brigade, the Xingtian Brigade, and the Tianbing Brigade. It's said that the Divine Eagle Brigade consists of only 500 men, but every member has reached Level 6S, rivaling the Abyssal Divine Guards in combat power.

The Intelligence Director continued, "The Public Relations Director and I are trying to figure out if we can get through to Admiral Thunder, but don't get your hopes up. Judging from his resume, he appears to be a righteous and aloof person who hates evil. I've never heard of him accepting bribes, and his finances are very clean."

Jin Bolong waved his hand, ended the call, then rubbed his brows in pain, thinking about how to resolve the dilemma.

If it were in the past, if it were a general from another security bureau, Jin Bolong would have 100 ways to deal with him.

Even now, Jin Bolong can easily transfer a general of the Security Bureau from his current position, or get him into trouble through litigation.

However, this Admiral Thunder is different. He is not only followed by the public and media, but also highly valued by the Second Commander-in-Chief and Huo Bangguo.

It is said that at a meeting at the city government last night, Huo Bangguo praised Lei Ting and the "Wind of Light" operation in front of a group of senior officials.

This guy even set up a plan to kill the 'ghost' that has been plaguing the Federation for hundreds of years!
Ling Huan had made countless enemies in the Earth Federation. Admiral Lei Ting killed this man, and I wonder how many people expressed gratitude to him, both openly and secretly.

It is said that the Socialist Party originally intended to suspend Admiral Thunder or transfer him to another base city.

However, before the second commander-in-chief of the Security Bureau and Huo Bangguo could take any action, all the efforts of the Socialist Party were countered by the Human Resources Department of the Security Bureau.

They also wanted to cut off the budget of the National Security Special Operations Center and the Special Service Center to force Thunder to surrender, but the financial institutions at all levels of the Ninth Base City ignored them.

From this we can see how solid the foundation of this Thunder is, he does not rely entirely on the Second Commander-in-Chief and Huo Bangguo.

Lei Ting also demonstrated 6SSS+ level combat capabilities in the battle with the Li family. His force was extremely powerful, which meant that this person was difficult to eliminate physically.

"Chairman, our situation is very dangerous now."

Lu Hanyuan, the independent director of Jinhao Group, sat on the sofa across from him, looking at a Go board. "We don't know how long the Security Bureau will seal off these properties. If it lasts more than two months, our funding chain could collapse, and that would be a dead end for us."

Lu Hanyuan placed the black piece in his hand on the chessboard.

"I think at this point, the longer we delay, the worse it will be for us. We have no choice but to burn our boats and solve the problem at its source as soon as possible."

Jin Bolong raised his eyebrows and looked at his good friend and advisor. "How do you do this? How do you solve the problem at its source?"

"Chairman, please put aside all your concerns and fight Linghu Mingde with all your strength!"

Lu Hanyuan raised his head and said, "Linghu Mingde won't live long. Regardless of whether you win or lose this battle with him, he will die faster. This move may have some consequences, but it is the best way to resolve our group's predicament."

"Linghu Mingde!"

Jin Bolong immediately turned his head and looked out the floor-to-ceiling window.

Linghu Mingde is indeed the source of all the current difficulties of Jinhao Group.

The only way to break the deadlock now is to fight to the death.
