Special forces soldier demobilization: Starting from the county government compound, a meteoric rise

The next morning, the sun shone brightly as if the bloodshed in Old Locust Lane the previous night had never happened.

Liu Ming stepped into the Municipal Youth League Committee office on time, carrying her signature enamel mug, her expression as calm as a still lake. Only the occasional flash of sharp light in her eyes hinted that today was destined to be anything but peaceful.

Instead of dealing with the documents on his desk, he turned on his computer and created a new document.

The rhythmic sound of keyboard typing filled the air, and a line of bold, black text appeared at the top of the screen:

**Emergency Plan for Jointly Launching a Special Campaign with Public Security Organs to "Purify the Environment Surrounding Schools and Safeguard the Growth of Youth"**

To take advantage of the situation.

Liu Ming took these four words to the extreme.

Although those thugs were after him last night, they made their move in Laohuai Lane, and the end of Laohuai Lane happens to be the back gate of Ningzhou No. 3 Middle School.

Since Ouyang Feng likes to play dirty tricks and hire thugs to block the road, Liu Ming will use the most upright and respectable reason to slap him back hard.

Half an hour later, Liu Ming, holding the printed plan, knocked on the door of Secretary Chen Jianguo's office.

"Secretary Chen, I have something urgent to report to you."

Liu Ming placed the documents on the table, her face displaying just the right amount of "seriousness" and "worry".

"Last night, on my way home from get off work, I passed by the old locust alley behind the No. 3 Middle School and witnessed several idle people fighting with weapons. They even tried to harass students leaving school. This situation is extremely bad and seriously threatens the physical and mental health and personal safety of teenagers."

"What? Such a thing exists?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianguo was shocked. He put down his thermos, his brows furrowed. "These thugs are completely lawless! Secretary Liu, are you alright?"

"I'm fine. I trained for a few years and chased them away," Liu Ming said casually. "But the problem is that these thugs have been entrenched around the school for a long time, and the root cause lies in those illegally operated arcades, internet cafes, and billiard halls nearby. They are breeding grounds for filth and crime."

He tapped his finger on the document, his tone becoming resolute.

"Secretary Chen, although the Municipal Youth League Committee doesn't have law enforcement power, we have a responsibility to protect the rights of young people. I suggest we immediately join forces with the Municipal Public Security Bureau to launch a swift and decisive operation, conducting a comprehensive search of entertainment venues throughout the city, especially around key middle schools! Shut down any that are found!"

Chen Jianguo looked into Liu Ming's determined eyes and his heart skipped a beat.

He's a seasoned veteran in officialdom; how could he not hear the hidden meaning in those words?

Who owns those largest arcades and internet cafes near No. 3 Middle School?

That was Ouyang Feng's "money bag"! It was the capital he used to support his gang of cronies in the circle!

Liu Ming is about to use a knife!

"Well... Xiao Liu, joint law enforcement is a good thing, but shouldn't we communicate with the relevant departments first? And..." Chen Jianguo hesitated, not wanting to get involved in this battle of the titans.

"Don't worry, Secretary Chen, I've already spoken to the Public Security Bureau."

Liu Ming smiled, directly blocking Chen Jianguo's escape route. "Captain Xing Lie of the Criminal Investigation Detachment has expressed his full support. As soon as we send this letter, they will take action immediately."

Upon hearing the name "Xing Lie," Chen Jianguo's lips twitched slightly.

That infamous jinx?

And then there's this "Number One Ruthless Man in Ningzhou" right in front of us?

With these two together, Ningzhou is likely to be in deep trouble!

"Alright... alright then." Chen Jianguo sighed, signed his name on the document, and said, "Let's do it your way, but be careful with the methods and don't make too much of a fuss."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Liu Ming picked up the document and turned to leave.

Not much noise?

That won't do.

What I want is for the whole city to be in turmoil.

……

That afternoon, at the Criminal Investigation Detachment compound of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Dozens of police cars were ready to go, their red and blue lights flashing alternately, creating a tense and grim atmosphere.

More than a hundred fully armed criminal police officers and special police officers lined up, with Xing Lie standing at the front of the line, dressed in a black combat uniform, his face full of murderous intent.

Liu Ming, as the "initiator" and "supervisor" of the joint operation, also stood by.

"Brother Liu, you've really gone all out this time." Xing Lie leaned over, offered Liu Ming a cigarette, and grinned. "I've checked. Those establishments are all under Ouyang Feng's name, or run by his cronies. Usually, with Ouyang Zhen protecting them, the police turn a blind eye. This time, we've really stirred up a hornet's nest."

"Scared?" Liu Ming took the cigarette and looked at him with a half-smile.

"What's there to be afraid of!"

Xing Lie glared, his anger stemming from being slighted. "I've had my eye on those bastards for ages! Running casinos, lending money at exorbitant interest rates, and specifically targeting students! I never had a chance to touch them before, but now that the Municipal Youth League Committee is in charge, I'm going to skin them alive!"

He turned to face the team and waved his hand.

"Everyone's here! Destination—'Speed ​​Zone' arcade and 'Nightfall' internet cafe in the west of the city! Let's go!"

"yes!"

With sirens blaring, the convoy roared out of the compound like a long steel dragon, heading straight for Ouyang Feng's "lair".

……

"Speed ​​Zone" arcade.

This is one of the largest comprehensive entertainment venues in Ningzhou City. On the surface, it's a legitimate arcade, but it's actually a different story. The back door leads to several hidden private rooms filled with gambling machines like slot machines and fishing games, and there's even an illegal internet cafe that provides "special services" to minors.

It was afternoon dismissal time, and the place was filled with smoke and noise.

A group of students in school uniforms mingled among the thugs with dyed yellow hair, puffing on cigarettes and shouting.

The manager, a bald man, was sitting behind the bar counting money with his legs crossed, humming a tune, clearly in a good mood.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the arcade's roller shutter door was violently pushed open from the outside, and the huge sound instantly drowned out the noise inside.

The bald man was startled, and before he could even utter a curse, he was stunned by the sight before him.

Dozens of heavily armed special police officers surged in like a tide and quickly took control of all the exits.

"Police! Don't move! Hands behind your head! Kneel down!"

The stern rebuke echoed throughout the room.

The once noisy arcade instantly descended into chaos, with people screaming, trying to run away, and even attempting to slip away through the back door.

"Who dares to run?"

Xing Lie strode in, kicking over a game console blocking his way, his fierce aura immediately intimidating the entire room.

"Take them all! Leave no one alive!"

Liu Ming followed behind and slowly walked in.

He looked at the cigarette butts scattered on the ground, at the panicked students, and then at the gambling machines that the police had pulled out of the hidden door; his eyes were icy.

The bald manager, pinned to the ground, struggled and yelled, "What are you doing? This is Young Master Ouyang's territory! You dare to shut this place down? Don't you want to live?"

"Young Master Ouyang?"

Liu Ming walked up to him, squatted down, and gently patted the bald man's face with the "Special Rectification Plan" stamped with a red seal.

"Go back and tell your master."

"We live in a society governed by the rule of law; there are no such things as 'young masters' now."

"Also, remind him to go to the tax bureau and pay the outstanding taxes. If he can't pay them..."

Liu Ming pointed to the police officers behind her who were putting up seals, a cold smile playing on her lips.

"We don't know when this seal will be able to be torn off."

……

This night was destined to be a sleepless one for Ningzhou's "gray industries".

Under the guise of "protecting teenagers," Liu Ming, together with Xing Lie, carried out a devastating raid on six arcades, four internet cafes, and three underground billiard halls controlled by Ouyang Feng and his cronies.

They seized hundreds of gambling machines, dozens of controlled knives, and even arrested several drug dealers who were distributing drugs in internet cafes.

A brilliant victory!

The proof is like a mountain!

Ouyang Feng's phone was ringing off the hook.

"Brother Feng! Something terrible has happened! 'Speed' has been shut down! The police have taken all the machines away!"

"Brother Feng! 'Nightfall' has been investigated too! They say it failed fire safety standards and will be closed for three months!"

"Brother Feng! The tax bureau people are here too..."

……

Inside a high-end apartment in Ningzhou City.

As Ouyang Feng listened to the series of devastating news coming from the phone, his face turned ashen, and the phone in his hand fell to the ground with a "thud."

These venues were not only his "cash cows" for maintaining his extravagant lifestyle, but also the capital he used to win people's hearts in the circle.

Each venue generates hundreds of thousands in revenue every day!

Now that everything is frozen, it means his cash flow... is completely cut off!

What terrified him even more was that the reason for this operation was all too legitimate—"protecting teenagers."

Even his father, who was the vice chairman of the CPPCC, didn't dare to openly call to bail him out in the face of this righteous reason!

"Liu Ming..."

Ouyang Feng slumped on the sofa, his eyes bloodshot, gritting his teeth as he muttered the name.

He finally understood what Liu Ming meant when she said "play big" that night.

This is hardly a game.

They're cutting his flesh with a knife!

Moreover, it was like cutting flesh with a dull knife, one cut at a time, causing him excruciating pain and leaving him with no recourse!

In this battle, Liu Ming didn't expend a single soldier; he merely used a document to cripple half of the power base in Ningzhou.

"Good! Very good!"

Ouyang Feng let out a sinister laugh through his teeth, grabbed the ashtray on the table, and smashed it hard against the television.

"Since you want to go all out, then this young master will play along to the very end!"

"Cut off my livelihood? I'll make sure you're utterly disgraced in Ningzhou!"
