Police Chief's Anti-Organized Crime Storm

Chapter 172 Qingjiang Confrontation

"Why?" Ma Guoliang asked blankly. Lin Ying's lips curled into a cold smile, a smile that was somewhat sarcastic.

"Secretary Ma, you surely know better than anyone how Tianlong Group got its fortune?" Lin Ying suddenly blurted out. Ma Guoliang was startled. How did Tianlong Group get its fortune? Or rather, how did the Wang brothers, Dalong and Dahu, get their fortune? He knew perfectly well that they started as sand tycoons. Without Qingjiang Sand Quarry, without Heilongwan Sand Quarry, without Gaoshan No. 1 Sand Quarry, the Wang brothers and Tianlong Group would never have become the richest people in Gaoshan County, let alone become well-known entrepreneurs in Gaoshan!

But what does this have to do with him? He was just using Tianlong Group to realize his own plans.

Lin Ying suddenly wore a strange expression, looking utterly astonished: "Secretary Ma, when did I ever say that I arrested Wang Dahu?"

"You didn't arrest him? Then who did?" Ma Guoliang was stunned. It wasn't Lin Ying who arrested him? How could that be?!

"How would I know?" Lin Ying retorted. She wasn't stupid. Right now, she wanted to make Wang Dalong and Ma Guoliang anxious, and even make them fight amongst themselves because of Wang Dahu's matter. That way, she would have an opportunity to take advantage of the situation. However, she didn't know how far Ma Guoliang and Wang Dalong had colluded.

Ma Guoliang was stunned. After all this time, he had been talking to a brick wall. He looked at Lin Ying suspiciously, his face full of disbelief. However, Lin Ying's face did not show any pretense or falsehood. It really wasn't her who caught him.

"You really didn't arrest Wang Dahu?" Ma Guoliang asked again. Lin Ying spread her hands to show her innocence, but inwardly she was sneering. It seemed that Ma Guoliang had asked her out this time because of Wang Dahu.

Ma Guoliang still didn't believe it. No matter what, Wang Dahu had disappeared, and Liu Yixiong insisted that Lin Ying had captured him. He would never make false accusations. This matter must be related to Lin Ying.

Just as he was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang urgently. He quickly picked it up, and upon seeing the caller ID, his expression changed drastically. He hurriedly walked to the side and pressed the answer button: "Hello, what's wrong?" Liu Yixiong's excited voice came from the other end of the line.

"Brother Ma, we've found that woman surnamed Cui. Do you think we should follow the old rules and shut her up completely?" These are extraordinary times, and Liu Yixiong was afraid something might happen. After all, Lin Yingke was watching him. For some reason, he had been feeling like someone was following him lately, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination. He was afraid of taking responsibility, so he quickly asked Ma Guoliang for instructions.

"Found her, good. Deal with her quickly. Remember, don't let her show up in Gaoshan County again, especially don't let Lin Ying and the others find her." After saying that, Ma Guoliang subconsciously glanced at Lin Ying. The latter frowned slightly. Could Ma Guoliang's phone call at this moment be related to Cui Tingting's matter? Her heart skipped a beat, realizing that something was wrong.

"Understood." With a snap, the phone hung up, and Ma Guoliang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as that woman surnamed Cui disappeared, no one would mention the May 530th massacre anymore, and things could finally be quiet for a while. Next, he could deal with Lin Ying properly. No matter what, he was still the top leader of Gaoshan, and he still had power. Even if Lin Ying was sent down from above, as long as he was the county party secretary and the top leader of Gaoshan, he could suppress Lin Ying.

Thinking of this, his gaze toward Lin Ying became much calmer.

"Director Lin, I don't care whether you know where Wang Dahu is or not. As the director of the Public Security Bureau, you must bring Wang Dahu back. Moreover, you have already issued an arrest warrant, so you must bring Wang Dahu back even more."

"Secretary Ma, do you know what you're saying?" Wang Dahu is a wanted criminal now. Ma Guoliang probably doesn't know that the deceased was Director Meng's son. If he did, I wonder if he would still be so arrogant as to ask me to find him. It seems Ma Guoliang's time as county party secretary is over.

"Comrade Lin Ying, mind your place!" Ma Guoliang's face hardened, revealing an air of authority. His gaze towards Lin Ying carried a murderous intent. However, Lin Ying's aura suddenly shifted, unleashing a powerful and chilling aura. Ma Guoliang's expression changed, revealing disbelief. Her aura was actually stronger than his, the county party secretary's?!

Ma Guoliang's heart pounded wildly, and his gaze towards Lin Ying trembled slightly as he stared intently at her, as if trying to pin her to the spot.

Lin Ying's gaze was sharp as a sword, meeting Ma Guoliang's eyes without flinching. Ma Guoliang's eyes were filled with anger, while Lin Ying's eyes held a resolute sharpness that sent shivers down one's spine. Zhao Sanbao nervously glanced at the two, his palms sweating. Duan Fei's lips curled into a cold smile. Trying to outdo the boss in a presence? This Ma Guoliang was asking for trouble!

"Secretary Ma, do you know why I chose to meet you at the Qingjiang battlefield?" Lin Ying suddenly asked, her eyes flashing like lightning.

Ma Guoliang snorted coldly and stopped talking, afraid of being led astray by Lin Ying.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Lin Ying pursed her lips slightly: "Because this is the source of darkness in the mountains."

Ma Guoliang's head buzzed, and he looked at Lin Ying in disbelief. What did she mean by that? What did she mean by saying that this place was the source of darkness in the mountains?

"Explain yourself clearly. What do you mean by 'this is the source of darkness in Gaoshan'?" Ma Guoliang's eyes were filled with raging anger. This was where he used to work, the starting point of Tianlong Group, and the place where Gaoshan County's first pot of gold appeared. What did Lin Ying mean by this?

"Secretary Ma, you know better than anyone what the Qingjiang battlefield means, you know better than anyone how Tianlong Group and Wang Dalong made their fortune, you know better than anyone what Tianlong Group and the Wang Dalong brothers have been doing in Gaoshan County all these years, how much blood of ordinary people they have spilled on their hands, they even dared to kill the county magistrate, do you really think everyone is blind!"

Lin Ying's words made Ma Guoliang's ears ring. His old face turned red, and his gaze towards Lin Ying was filled with a terrifying murderous intent: "You... what do you mean by that?" How dare Lin Ying question him! What audacity! The county magistrate was murdered, what did it have to do with him? That was done by thugs, not by him!

Lin Ying merely glanced coldly at Ma Guoliang, her eyes sharp enough to send chills down one's spine: "Secretary Ma, what goes around comes around. You've been in power in Gaoshan for so many years, using the so-called development of Gaoshan County as an excuse to allow criminal gangs like Tianlong Group to grow to the point where they dare to assassinate the county magistrate. Tell me, were the deaths of three county magistrates all because of your need for economic development in Gaoshan County?"
