Hou Liangping arrested a hawkish general, and his father-in-law panicked

He forced himself to straighten his back, but his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

He could even feel that Li Dakang's sharp gaze had fallen on him.

Qi Tongwei in the video was unaware of the undercurrents in the conference room and continued to report.

"According to preliminary assessments, General Zhao was attacked here and then taken away by unidentified individuals. The vehicle was found at the Procuratorate."

The four words "the car was found in the procuratorate" pierced into Ji Changming's heart.

Sha Ruijin didn't say anything, but just withdrew his gaze from the big screen and slowly moved it inch by inch to Ji Changming's face.

That look was emotionless.

But it was this calm gaze that made Ji Changming feel suffocated more than any thunderous rage.

"Quarterly inspection."

Li Dakang's voice suddenly rang out, piercing Ji Changming's most fragile nerves.

He leaned forward slightly, his hawk-like eyes fixed on Ji Changming, with an undisguised sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"Your Provincial Procuratorate is truly a place of hidden talents! They even dared to seize Commander Zhao's car. I, Li Dakang, truly admire you!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the temperature in the conference room dropped a few degrees.

He Liming subconsciously shrank his neck, wishing he could turn himself into a piece of wood on the chair.

Ji Changming's face suddenly lost all color and became as white as a piece of paper.

He opened his mouth, but his throat was blocked by a ball of cotton and he couldn't utter a word.

What could he say?

Admit that you didn't discipline your subordinates well enough?

Or do you claim to be completely unaware?

Which words, at this moment, are not nonsense that will only bring trouble to yourself?

who is it?

Who did it? !

Which bastard is so bold as to dare to touch the taboo of God?

This is going to put the entire Handong Provincial Procuratorate, including Ji Changming, on the fire!

The faces of his subordinates flashed through his mind frantically. Chen Hai?

Impossible, he is steady and cautious.

Lu Yike?

That girl has a sense of justice, but she's not that brave, let alone that stupid.

Could it be...

A name flashed through his mind, so fast that he couldn't catch it.

Gao Yuliang never looked at Ji Changming. He just slowly picked up the teacup, blew on the floating tea leaves, and tasted some rare treasure.

But the first words he spoke were to Sha Ruijin: "Secretary Sha, the situation is still unclear. Comrade Tong Wei said the car was found at the procuratorate. Perhaps the attackers deliberately left the car there to confuse the public."

This sounded like an excuse for the political and legal system, but when Ji Changming heard it, he felt it was more like a soft knife.

Yes, there is another possibility, it is a frame-up!

But no matter which possibility it is, Ji Changming and his procuratorate have been dragged into this bottomless muddy water.

Qi Tongwei, who was in the video, heard Gao Yuliang's words and immediately added, "Secretary Gao is right. This is indeed a possibility. However, the attack and the movement of personnel will inevitably leave traces. I have ordered technicians to check all surveillance cameras in and around the Procuratorate parking lot, especially all entrances and exits to the parking lot."

He paused, his voice becoming clearer and stronger.

"I'm conducting the next step of the investigation and am currently retrieving the video. I believe we'll soon know who attacked General Zhao Yuanchao and who took him away!"

immediately……

You’ll know soon!

These two words hit Ji Changming's heart hard.

He felt like his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

Finished!

It's all over now!

No matter who did it, as long as the surveillance video comes out, it will be irrefutable evidence!

At that time, he, as the Attorney General, will be the person primarily responsible!

An unprecedented panic seized him.

He couldn't sit still anymore.

"Secretary Sha! Secretary Gao! Secretary Li!"

Ji Changming stood up suddenly from the chair, and because he moved too quickly, the chair legs rubbed against the ground, making a shrill scream.

He ignored all that, his voice trembling slightly with extreme nervousness. "This... This is a serious dereliction of duty! I... I will apologize to the Provincial Party Committee! I will return to the hospital immediately, immediately! Set up a special task force to investigate this matter thoroughly! I promise to give an explanation to the Provincial Party Committee and General Zhao!"

He was incoherent and just wanted to leave this suffocating meeting room and go back to figure out what was going on.

He must find the culprit who pushed him into the fire pit before the provincial party committee’s wrath strikes!

However, Sha Ruijin just raised his hand, an extremely slight movement.

"Sit down, Comrade Changming."

The voice was still calm, but it carried an authority that brooked no room for questioning.

Ji Changming stood frozen in place, neither standing nor sitting, his old face turning the color of liver.

He felt that everyone in the conference room was looking at him, leaving him with nowhere to hide.

Sha Ruijin stopped looking at him and turned to Qi Tongwei on the screen and gave orders. His voice was not loud, but every word was of great significance.

"Comrade Tongwei, I'll give you an hour."

He held out a finger.

"Within one hour, I want to see the faces of the people in the video. I want to know who did this. I also want to know where General Zhao has been taken! All the resources of the entire Handong province, including the public security and armed police, are at your disposal! In one hour, I want your final report!"

"Yes! Promise to complete the mission!"

Qi Tongwei's face tensed instantly on the screen, and he saluted. Then the picture was interrupted and returned to darkness.

The conference room fell into silence again.

But this time the silence was even more terrifying than before.

It envelopes everyone.

The air was filled with the chilling feeling before a storm.

Ji Changming slowly, bit by bit, sat back in his chair.

He felt like all the strength in his body had been drained away. The shirt on his back was completely soaked with cold sweat and stuck tightly to his skin, feeling cold and sticky.

He's done.

This was the only thought in his mind.

He could do nothing now but sit here and wait for the answer that would be revealed and would destroy everything for him.

He didn't even dare to think about what would happen to him if the person who arrested Zhao Yuanchao was really someone from his procuratorate.

Removal?

Investigate?

still is……

Become the first unlucky person to be killed by this huge wave?

He didn't dare to think about it, nor did he want to think about it.

He just stared blankly at the big screen in front of him that had gone out, his eyes empty and his mind blank.

The air in the conference room solidified into substance, weighing heavily on everyone's heart.

Chapter 40 Notice: The one who attacked Zhao Yuanchao was Hou Liangping!

The eyes of Li Dakang, secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, were unconcealed; they were sharp, harsh, and filled with an imperceptible sense of pleasure.

His eyes wanted to dissect Ji Changming from the inside out to see how many hidden tricks this always steady old prosecutor had hidden in his bones that he didn't know about.

The Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Gao Yuliang, appears mysterious.

He adjusted his glasses, and the lenses reflected the cold light of the conference room's ceiling light, making it impossible to see the emotions in his eyes.

He just looked at Ji Changming quietly,

Ji Changming felt like a prisoner on display.

Those gazes, some like knives, some like fire, some like ice, burning, cutting, and freezing every inch of his nerves.

His throat was dry, and he subconsciously reached out to touch the teacup on the table, but his fingertips trembled uncontrollably and touched the wall of the cup several times, making a series of subtle and crisp "ding-dong" sounds.

In this dead silent conference room, the sound was infinitely amplified, accompanying his embarrassment and fear.

He finally gave up, withdrew his hand dejectedly, took out a handkerchief with his other hand, and wiped the cold sweat that kept coming out of his forehead and nose over and over again.

The small handkerchief soon became soaked and felt sticky when held in the palm of my hand.

He's done.

This thought swirled and collided wildly in his mind, giving him a splitting headache.

Procuratorate!

Zhao Yuanchao's car appeared in the procuratorate!

Who the hell did this?!

In the procuratorate, who else has the courage and ability to take Zhao Yuanchao away quietly, except him, the director of investigation of the Anti-Corruption Bureau?
