Police Chief's Anti-Organized Crime Storm

Chapter 154 Don't Open the Door

However, he was still somewhat skeptical. After all, they were an audit team sent by the province. Could it be that someone in Gaoshan County was so bold as to dare to target them?

"Director Lin, do they really have that much guts?" Liao Congjun couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing. Would a small county like Gaoshan have people with that kind of audacity? Was Lin Ying being overly pessimistic?

"Team Leader Liao, I hope you will take this matter seriously and not take it lightly. Otherwise, they may take advantage of the situation. I also suggest that you stay at the Armed Police Squadron for the next few days. I will speak with them and ask them to protect your safety."

"Isn't it making a mountain out of a molehill to have someone stay at the Armed Police detachment?" Liao Congjun still felt it was a bit of an exaggeration.

"I originally wanted you to stay at the county public security bureau's guesthouse, but it might not be safe enough."

"What? Even the county public security bureau's guesthouse isn't safe? Is it really that exaggerated?"

"Team Leader Liao, this is no exaggeration. Do you know where the previous county magistrate, Gao Lan, died? She died in the county government office dormitory, and the staff on duty were all present at the time."

"What?" Liao Congjun was shocked. Gao Lan died in the county government office dormitory. How could this be? Details about Gao Lan's case had not been disclosed to the outside world, so Liao Congjun did not know the truth.

"She was beaten to death in her own dormitory, with all her bones broken. So you can imagine what kind of insane people were on the other end."

Upon hearing this, Liao Congjun immediately became uneasy. His heart pounded in his chest. If the other party dared to harm him, Wu Jingyi would also be in danger.

"Director Lin, I'll do as you say. I'll take Deputy Auditor Wu Jingyi with me right away to the Armed Police Squadron."

"No need, you don't need to move. Remember to tell Wu Jingyi to close the door tightly, and remember, don't open it for anyone. I'll send someone to pick you up right away."

Lin Ying was very worried. It was very likely that the other party had already taken action. If they acted quickly enough, they would make their move tonight.

"Okay, Director Lin, I'll do as you say. I'll call Wu Jingyi right away." After saying that, Liao Congjun hung up the phone and dialed Wu Jingyi directly. The latter was startled when she heard the call and quickly ran to the door. After listening for a moment, she locked the door completely. Then she went to the window and locked all the windows. Little did she know that it was her caution that saved her life.

"Jingyi, we'll wait for Director Lin's notification. She'll send someone to pick us up right away." Liao Congjun hung up the phone, quickly locked the door, and then ran to the window to lock all the windows as well, finally breathing a sigh of relief. However, the unease in his heart just wouldn't go away.

After thinking for a moment, he carefully took out the two account books, found them by the bed, and walked to the wardrobe. He was about to put them in when he thought it was not a good idea. He saw the top of the wardrobe and quickly grabbed a chair, climbed up, and carefully stuffed the two account books into the top of the wardrobe.

Old Yuan is in trouble. Their goal is to find out the economic problems that have existed in Gaoshan County over the years, so there will definitely be some people who are dissatisfied. These past few days, Sun Youcai has been sweating profusely and extremely nervous every time he mentions those two accounts. It is obvious that there are problems with these two accounts, and the problems are serious. Will Sun Youcai be able to give a reasonable explanation tomorrow? It's hard to say. If there are really problems, he probably won't be able to give one.

Liao Congjun became increasingly suspicious. Sun Youcai always dawdled, clearly seeking instructions from someone. Who was he consulting? Was it Zhao Yuma, the deputy county head in charge of economic affairs? Or Ma Guoliang, the county party secretary? Both times it was Ma Guoliang. It seemed highly likely that he was the one backing Sun Youcai. In other words, Ma Guoliang was behind Sun Youcai.

Liao Congjun was startled again. It was entirely possible for the county party secretary to instruct the county finance bureau chief, but could it be him? If so, what role did Ma Guoliang play in this matter?

Also, on the day Yuan Lao had his accident, only Ma Guoliang was with him. Could it be that Yuan Lao's accident was also related to him?

The thought startled Liao Congjun, and he felt a pang of panic. He quickly looked outside, but in the darkness, apart from the occasional flash of neon lights, there was nothing unusual.

However, at that moment, an inconspicuous bread truck stopped about 100 meters away from the Friendship Hotel. Two dark figures got out of the truck, turned around, and walked towards the Friendship Hotel.

A black SUV sped down the street, nearly running a red light several times due to its excessive speed, but each time the driver skillfully managed to stop.

"Captain Yuan, we need to hurry, or we might not make it in time." Fatty Xu was a little anxious. After receiving Lin Ying's call, they set off without stopping. However, he was still worried that once the other party was about to make a move, they would do so very quickly. There was a group of criminal gangs in Gaoshan County that specialized in killing people.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Xiong slammed on the gas pedal, and with a whoosh, the car shot forward. Fatty and Xie Zhijun quickly grabbed the handrails, their bodies thrown to the side. The car sped towards the Friendship Hotel.

At this moment, the two dark figures slowly looked towards the Friendship Hotel. One was staying in room 306, and the other in room 307. They nodded to each other and then entered the hotel.

"What are you doing here?" the waiter called out. The two men turned around simultaneously. "Oh, looking for a friend." After saying that, they headed straight for the third floor. Their tone was very stiff, which puzzled the waiter.

Soon, the two arrived on the third floor, and clear footsteps echoed in the hallway.

A man arrived at the door of room 306, glanced at it, a sinister smile creeping across his lips. He raised his hand and gently knocked on the door, knock knock knock... knock knock knock...

Inside the house, Liao Congjun was startled but didn't make a sound. Who was it? He carefully walked to the door and looked out through the peephole. He saw an unfamiliar face, not a waiter, and the person's figure was very strange, unlike someone from Gaoshan County.

His heart leaped into his throat. The knocking started again, knock knock knock… knock knock knock…

Liao Congjun remained silent, his heart leaping into his throat. Who was this person? What were they doing here? Why weren't they speaking?

"Is Mr. Liao there?" A somewhat stiff voice rang out. In the darkness, Liao Congjun's expression changed slightly. He quickly picked up his phone and dialed Wu Jingyi's number: "Jingyi, remember, whatever you do, don't open the door. No matter what they say, don't open the door."

However, there was silence on the other end of the phone. Liao Congjun's expression changed, and his heart jumped into his throat. What happened to Wu Jingyi? Could something have happened to her?

"Jingyi, are you alright? Say something, are you alright?" Liao Congjun asked anxiously.

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the phone...
