CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

"Xiao Wang, you can go now."

"We've fallen into their trap."

"Gao Qilin even guessed my move to kidnap Gao Yue. How many more things has he deliberately arranged?"

"How long did he keep an eye on Cao Chuang's wife and children?"

"Not only that, I'm afraid..."

As he spoke, Zhao Lidong rubbed his temples: "Meng Yu, it's probably Gao Qilin's doing too."

"According to our intelligence, Meng Yu knew that Gao Qilin had a daughter long ago, but why did she only turn around and accuse Gao Qilin after Gao's Real Estate ran into trouble? It's probably all his doing!"

"As for the rest, we don't know how much evidence Gao Qilin has on us."

"One wrong move, one wrong move indeed..."

As Zhao Lidong spoke, he fell into a long silence.

And right now.

Without saying a word, Secretary Wang knelt down in front of Zhao Lidong.

"lead."

"I'll call you my leader for life, you'll always be my leader... I can't run away now."

"I hope that while I'm inside, I can still take care of you..."

As she spoke, Secretary Wang's voice trembled with a hint of tears.

Zhao Lidong gave a wry smile.

"Yeah, it's too late to run now."

"Xiao Wang, do you still remember that voice recorder?"

"That voice recorder is useless. If we use it, our deaths will be even more gruesome. Let's destroy it."

……

the other side.

Inside the fried chicken shop.

Huang Yanjun hesitated and looked at Gao Qilin: "Qilin, you said the things you asked the men to get are related to Zhao Lidong?"

Gao Qilin nodded, making no attempt to hide his feelings. Instead, he smiled and said, "Old Huang, do you remember Huang Cuicui? She was murdered by Xu Jiang at the behest of Zhao Lidong."

Old Huang nodded: "I remember, that case really shocked Jinghai. I heard that the cause of death was because Huang Cuicui left a recording after attending a party at sea?"

Huang Yanjun finally showed a hesitant look on his face, and asked tentatively, "You mean, the pen is in Zhao Lidong's hands...?"

Gao Qilin said calmly, "At this point, all of Xu Jiang's residences and places of residence have been searched, but no recording pen was found."

"Then there are only two possibilities."

"First of all, we were very unlucky; the voice recorder had already been destroyed."

"Secondly...we were lucky. The recording pen had already been handed over, but the reason there was no response was that Zhao Lidong stopped it, and we hadn't had time to destroy it yet."

"Now that the truth has come out, if we're lucky, Zhao Lidong is probably eager to destroy the recording pen."

Huang Yanjun frowned and said, "Why? Gao Qilin, this isn't like you. Relying on luck?"

"Why is Zhao Lidong only now preparing to destroy the recording pen? Give me a credible reason."

Gao Qilin took a deep breath.

"The people who boarded the ship with Xu Jiang were not only Zhao Lidong, but also Zhao Lidong's colleagues and even... possibly his superiors."

"That recording pen was a threat to Zhao Lidong, but to others, it was a handle that Zhao Lidong held in his hands."

“If he hadn’t been desperate and the exposure of the recording would have done more harm than good, Zhao Lidong would not have destroyed the recording pen.”

"And now, this is the moment when Zhao Lidong has nowhere to turn."

Chapter 128 The Recorder is in Hand!

the other side.

The entrance to the mayor's office.

Tang Xiaolong sat in the car, gripping the steering wheel and staring intently at the vehicles ahead: "Hai B00002, Zhao Lidong's car. Wang Liang drove off. Let's follow."

Tang Xiaohu nodded, then said, "Brother, I'll leave a few more brothers to keep watch, just in case Wang Liang is using this as a diversionary tactic..."

Tang Xiaolong chuckled upon hearing this: "Well done, kid. Your brain's gotten sharper now."

As he spoke, Tang Xiaolong started the car and slowly followed...

……

the other side.

In the guidance group's office.

Zhong Xiaoai stared at the computer screen, looking at the complaint letter inside.

The letter was a long electronic whistleblower letter, which also included audio recordings and photos.

These are all shocking pieces of evidence that Zhao Lidong bribed newspaper reporters and public officials!

It further listed numerous crimes committed by Zhao Lidong.

Hiring someone to commit murder, colluding with criminal gangs, bribing superiors, and so on...

All of a sudden.

Instead of being angry about the above content, Zhong Xiaoai let out a long sigh of relief.

She already knew about what was on it.

133 was simply struggling with a lack of evidence and didn't know how to conduct an investigation into Zhao Lidong.

it's good now.

Each and every case is supported by conclusive evidence!

This will absolutely leave Zhao Lidong with no chance of recovery!

With that in mind, Zhong Xiaoai quickly stood up and sent the emails in her inbox to the staff of the investigation team.

He then stood up and instructed Xu Zhong, "Xu Zhong."

"Immediately assemble the investigation team and arrest Zhao Lidong!"

……

After a while.

Outside the mayor's office.

A row of black Santanas were parked outside the office, the sunlight shining on their black exteriors and reflecting dazzling light.

It seemed capable of shattering all the darkness in the world!

Zhong Xiaoai stepped out of the car, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

When he first arrived in Jinghai City, he was confident of victory and vowed to bring down Zhao Lidong, this big corrupt official.

But in fact.

When Zhong Xiaoai finally arrived in Jinghai City, she discovered what a corrupt and filthy place it was, where officials protected each other.

Even with irrefutable witness testimony, they managed to change their story at the last minute...

Zhao Lidong, the mayor, has practically become the local tyrant of Jinghai City.

As an investigation team from the capital, they were completely helpless against Zhao Lidong!

Fortunately.

This is also the time.

She found a breakthrough.

That's Gao Qilin.

Looking back on this period, I realize I did almost nothing.

Evidence, informants... and everything else that could help arrest Zhao Lidong seemed to be delivered to his door by Gao Qilin!

Today, standing at the door of the mayor's office, Zhao Lidong was taken away for investigation with irrefutable evidence.

All of this is thanks to Gao Qilin!

Thinking of this, Zhong Xiaoai slowly exhaled.

It seems I owe Gao Qilin a huge favor this time...

While thinking, Zhong Xiaoai said coldly, "Everyone, come with me and take Zhao Lidong away!"

……

now.

On the fifth overpass leading to the mayor's office in Jinghai City.
