In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong!

An Changlin was terrified.

He had already guessed some of the underlying meaning.

"Secretary Chen, please rest assured, I will definitely cooperate with Director Lu's work and ensure the stability of Jinghai City!"

Only after Chen Luo hung up the phone did An Changlin let out a heavy sigh of relief, sweat still dripping from his forehead.

"A joint investigation team has been stationed in Jinghai?"

"You really did come in secret!"

As the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, he hadn't heard a single word. Not only him, but even the Jinghai Municipal Party Committee and Government were unaware. He had just breathed a sigh of relief when the phone rang again.

"Hello, this is An Changlin!"

"Hello, Secretary An, I'm Lu Yike!"

"Director Lu!"

An Changlin's tone softened instantly. He had no choice but to keep a low profile. Although he and Lu Yike were at the same level, Lu Yike had already reached the deputy director-level position at a young age, while he no longer had the opportunity to advance.

"That's right, Secretary An. Our investigation team is now planning to openly enter Jinghai. Currently, we need Jinghai to provide office data and materials, as well as reliable police officers and cadres to cooperate with our work."

An Changlin nodded.

"Director Lu, no problem. Secretary Chen has already given instructions that the Jinghai Municipal Political and Legal Committee is willing to fully cooperate with Director Lu and your investigation team!"

"Okay, we'll be at the Political and Legal Affairs Commission in twenty minutes. I'll hang up now."

"Yes, Director Lu!"

After hanging up the phone, An Changlin immediately began arranging the reception work without stopping.

A dozen minutes later, two buses slowly came to a stop at the entrance of the Jinghai Municipal Party Committee building.

The three investigation teams, totaling thirty-six people, got out of the car, with Lu Yike, the director of the supervision office, naturally leading the way.

Besides her, there were three reporters from the Publicity Department and three deputy directors of the Investigation Department of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.

An Changlin and a group of staff members from the Municipal Political and Legal Affairs Commission were already waiting.

As soon as he got out of the car, An Changlin and staff from the Municipal Political and Legal Affairs Commission came to greet him.

"Director Lu, welcome!"

"You're too kind, Secretary An!"

The two shook hands, and soon An Changlin led Lu Yike and dozens of others into the Political and Legal Affairs Commission's office area.

"Director Lu, I'm really sorry."

There aren't enough positions in our Political and Legal Affairs Commission, but I've already coordinated with the Municipal Procuratorate.

Your office will be located in the Municipal Procuratorate.

Lu Yike gently shook her head at this result.

"No need to trouble Secretary An, our office location was already decided before we came here, it's in the military sub-district."

"A military district?!"

An Changlin was clearly taken aback. What kind of place was the military sub-district? It was not a place that ordinary people could go to.

After thinking about it for a moment, An Changlin suddenly discovered a blind spot.

The number one officer in the provincial military region is Lu Zheng'an, and the thirty-five or thirty-six-year-old director of the inspection office in front of him is Lu Yike.

If... then that's normal!

An Changlin swallowed hard and nodded.

"Okay, Director Lu, you can decide."

By the way, about the matter of transferring personnel from the public security, procuratorate, and judicial organs?

"Secretary An, you can make the selection. After all, I'm not very familiar with the cadres in Jinghai City. I trust your judgment!"

Lu Yike's words were light and casual, but they were actually true. Since An Changlin had no problems, let him choose and select the personnel himself. In any case, their investigation team would not share the core investigation results with these selected personnel and cadres, so what was there to be afraid of?

"Okay, Director Lu, I'll take care of this!"

I know several cadres in Jinghai City who possess strong Party principles and excellent work abilities; they are very familiar with all aspects of Jinghai City!

"Alright, then I'll leave it to Secretary An."

After chatting for a while longer at the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Lu Yike led the investigation team in a bus to the military sub-district.

There are no secrets that stay hidden forever, especially when the investigation team comes to the municipal party committee building so openly and openly.

As Zhao Lidong watched Lu Yike lead her team away from the mayor's office on the top floor of the adjacent municipal government building, his anxiety inexplicably intensified.

The panic was unlike anything I'd ever experienced before...

"They've come with ill intentions!"

Zhao Lidong's fingers trembled as he took a deep breath and then took out his phone to call Gao Qiqiang.

"Hello, Mr. Gao."

"Hello, Mayor Zhao!"

When facing Zhao Lidong, Gao Qiqiang's attitude was clearly very proper. There's no way around it; the black fear the white, and the white fear the red.

"Yes, Mr. Gao, just now, a joint investigation team from the province arrived. The team is led by the director of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission's Supervision Office, and accompanied by staff from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection."

They've come with ill intentions!

"Mr. Gao, tell your men to keep a low profile lately. I'll send you the information about this investigation team later. Remember, don't cause me any trouble!"

"Don't worry, Mayor Zhao!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Lidong sent the photos of the investigation team that his secretary had taken directly to Gao Qiqiang.

Gao Qiqiang, who was at home, froze the moment he saw Lu Yike's photo.

He recognized him.

"Damn it!"

He threw the photo in his hand away and leaned back on the sofa, sighing helplessly.

He already had a premonition that the investigation team's target was most likely Qiangsheng Group and himself.

"Do your best and leave the rest to fate..."

Shaking his head, Gao Qiqiang could only pray that what he had done would not be discovered.

Meanwhile, after Lu Yike and the others left, An Changlin made a phone call to his adopted son, An Xin.

"Hey, Anxin, are you busy right now?"

"Old An, you know my situation perfectly well. What business is there in the propaganda department?"

After a moment of silence, An Changlin continued, "There's something I need to tell you: people from the province have arrived!"

Just now, a joint investigation team led by the director of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission's Supervision Office officially entered Jinghai. This investigation team has been secretly in Jinghai for some time, and it seems that they have already uncovered some problems.

Director Lu asked me to select some cadres to assist in the work. If you want to resolve your inner turmoil and ensure that those cadres who violate laws and regulations are punished by law, then I recommend you to work in the investigation team.

"Old An, is there really a chance?"

An Xin's tone was tinged with melancholy.

An Changlin replied firmly, "This time is different. Secretary Chen from the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission called and told me to cooperate fully with Director Lu's work."

The determination from above overrides everything!

"Okay! I'll do it!"

An Changlin breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the reply.

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

After entering the military district, Lu Yike's investigation team continued to work on organizing evidence and collecting new information.

The next morning, staff members drawn by An Changlin officially joined the investigation team to begin their investigation.

Five days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Friday marked the last two days before Chen Luo and Tian Guofu arrived in Jinghai.

At the same time, the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee issued a notice to Jinghai.

Next Monday, the Secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission will visit Jinghai for inspection, and the Jinghai Municipal Party Committee and Government will be responsible for receiving him.

This incident caused a great stir, and An Xin, who had not made any progress in her investigation for several days, became anxious.

The provincial political and legal affairs secretary came to Jinghai, which was the best opportunity, but unfortunately his investigation has not made much progress so far.
