Police Chief's Anti-Organized Crime Storm

"Do it, take him down." Wang Dalong's voice rang out sinisterly, and he quickly added, "Remember, don't let anyone find out. This is your last chance." If all else fails, he'll have to rely on himself.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Dalong looked gloomy. Just then, Shan Gang called again: "Brother, we're shipping our stuff out now."

"You need to be quick. The crackdown on organized crime is about to begin. Pay attention to the situation at highway exits and entrances. If anything seems amiss, turn back immediately, understand?"

"Huh? A crackdown on organized crime?" Shan Gang was startled and quickly nodded vigorously, "Understood, Brother Long."

Wang Dalong's face remained gloomy. After thinking it over, he still felt that he had a chance to turn things around. Perhaps it lay with that blind old woman. If all else failed, he would have no choice but to take a desperate gamble.

Thinking of this, he quickly picked up his phone and dialed Shan Gang again: "Prepare thirty men for me, they must be skilled and loyal enough, and prepare a settlement allowance for them."

Upon hearing this, Dan Gang's heart pounded wildly: "Understood, Brother Long." It seemed Brother Long was going to take action personally, but he wondered who it was targeting. A sense of unease settled over him.

At the county police station, the door to Lin Ying's office opened, and Wang Zhenghua, the director of the political work office, and Luo Baotian, the head of the police support section, walked in. The two of them called out in unison, "Director Lin."

"sit."

The two quickly thanked her. Lin Ying looked up at them, her sharp gaze making them flinch and sit up straight. When Lin Ying spoke, their expressions changed, their hearts pounding. They looked at Lin Ying with shock: "Director Lin, this…"

"What, is it difficult?" Lin Ying glanced at the two men, expressionless. She knew that one of them was Liu Yixiong's man, but she didn't know which one. In the current county bureau, apart from Chen Zhengyang, no one had truly sided with her.

Wang Zhenghua looked troubled and glanced at Luo Baotian, who also looked troubled. The two looked at each other again and then at Lin Ying. Wang Zhenghua spoke up: "Director Lin, gun control sounds simple, but it is actually quite difficult. After all, we are police officers, and everyone has to carry out their duties. If it weren't for work requirements, they wouldn't be carrying guns."

"What I want is to keep the guns in our own hands, not like before, where any policeman could get a gun. What's the problem with that?" Lin Ying's gaze lingered on Wang Zhenghua's face. The latter felt that Lin Ying's gaze was like a knife, and he didn't dare to meet her eyes at all.

"However, the situation in Gaoshan County is not optimistic right now. Would it be bad for our own people if we controlled guns at this time? After all, their work is still very dangerous." Luo Baotian added, his gaze towards Lin Ying flickering slightly.

"It is precisely because the situation in our Gaoshan County is not good right now that we need to control guns and prevent our guns from malfunctioning or even becoming weapons for criminal gangs and thugs."

Upon hearing Lin Ying's words, Wang Zhenghua and Luo Baotian felt a chill run down their spines. What did Director Lin mean? What did he mean by saying that the county bureau's guns had become weapons for criminal gangs and thugs?

"Director Lin..." Wang Zhenghua wanted to say something, but Lin Ying raised his hand and said, "Alright, from now on, all the firearms of the county bureau's comrades will be confiscated. The political work office will be responsible for reviewing the ideological state of the staff. Those comrades who have ties with Tianlong Group or have connections with organized crime will have their firearms suspended."

Wang Zhenghua's expression changed, and Luo Baotian was shocked. The two of them almost simultaneously felt a tremor in their hearts. What did this mean? Was it related to Tianlong Group? Was it connected to criminal gangs? Could it be that Tianlong Group had been classified as a criminal gang? Wang Zhenghua's heart pounded wildly, and he subconsciously clenched his right hand.

"Section Chief Luo, from now on, without my signature, the Police Support Section shall not issue firearms without authorization, and all service weapons must be immediately recalled."

"Huh? Director Lin, isn't this inappropriate?" Wang Zhenghua's eyes widened in panic, and he immediately put away his gun. What should he do? He had to tell Director Liu as soon as possible.

"I'll say it again: put away your guns immediately. All firearms must be stored in the armory. The police logistics department must register and store the firearms properly. No one is allowed to carry a firearm outside without my signature and permission."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhenghua and Luo Baotian's expressions changed drastically. In particular, Wang Zhenghua's eyes became anxious. If he put away his gun now, then... But then, Luo Baotian suddenly spoke up: "Director Lin, does the 'everyone' you mentioned include the deputy directors as well?" He seemed to be implying something.

"Of course, this includes Deputy Director Liu Yixiong, who is in charge of criminal investigation, Director Zeng Zhenchao of the Transportation Bureau, and so on. Everyone is treated equally."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhenghua panicked completely. He had to get out of there as soon as possible; Director Liu always carried his gun. If he confiscated the gun, Director Liu would definitely blame him for not informing him beforehand.

"Director Lin, we understand. We'll carry it out now." With that, Wang Zhenghua stood up impatiently.

Unexpectedly, Lin Ying glanced at him, a strange smile in her eyes: "What's the rush? Sit down first. I've already arranged for people to take care of the gun collection. Deputy Section Chief Liu from the Police Support Section is already handling it with his men."

"What?" Wang Zhenghua's expression changed again, becoming somewhat ugly, and he became even more anxious. He subconsciously glanced at Luo Baotian, who simply shook his head slightly, his gaze towards Lin Ying showing no emotion.

"Just wait. Once Deputy Section Chief Liu has finished collecting the weapons, you can start implementing the work we just discussed. The process for receiving the weapons must be reviewed again."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhenghua felt even more uneasy. What was this all about? Who could carry a gun and who couldn't was always decided by his political work office, because they were in charge of ideological work. Only comrades with sound political ideology were allowed to carry guns, but who had problems and who didn't was still up to him!

"Director Lin, if we do this, many comrades will definitely have objections. After all, they are fighting on the front lines. If we do this, it's tantamount to putting them in a dangerous situation," Wang Zhenghua said, mustering his courage.

Lin Ying glanced at him, her gaze lingering on him for a few seconds. The latter quickly lowered his head. This Director Lin's aura was indeed too powerful. However, he couldn't remain silent, otherwise, if Liu Yixiong investigated later, he wouldn't have a good outcome.

At the county police station, a gun confiscation operation is being carried out quietly.

At the door of Liu Yixiong's office, Liu Jianbin knocked, knock knock knock... knock knock knock...

"Me? Director Liu, Liu Jianbin from the Police Support Section." Although he shares the same surname, he's not in cahoots with Liu Yixiong. If Director Lin hadn't brought him up, he'd still be sitting on the sidelines. So, he has to do a perfect job with this gun collection operation.

"Enter."

With a creak, Liu Jianbin pushed the door open and entered...
