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

Qi Tongwei felt a chill on his back.

He subconsciously straightened his back, put his hands on his knees, and stood motionless, like a soldier waiting for inspection.

He knew that Sha Ruijin's words were meant for everyone to hear, and were also a warning to him as the Public Security Bureau Chief.

Under military control, his power as the director has been infinitely compressed, and all he can do now is to keep his tail between his legs.

"Handong's officialdom is deeply entangled and riddled with problems. The higher-ups are aware of this, and so are we."

"Before, the lid was closed too tightly. Now, someone has lifted the lid. Now that the lid has been lifted, it's impossible to put it back on."

"Comrade Gao Yuliang, Hou Liangping is a cadre you promoted, and he is also your student. You cannot evade this responsibility."

"Secretary Sha, Hou Liangping entered Handong with you, not with me! I accept any investigation by the organization."

When Sha Ruijin heard Gao Yuliang's rebuttal, his face turned red and he stopped asking questions.

"Li Dakang."

"This incident happened in your Jingzhou. Comrade Zhao Yuanchao was arrested, interrogated, and ultimately attacked on your territory. As the municipal party secretary, you bear a heavy responsibility."

Li Dakang's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice became hoarse. "I failed to oversee this. I apologize."

What Sha Ruijin wants is not internal strife, but absolute obedience.

"Now is not the time to assign blame or divide into factions."

Sha Ruijin's voice was filled with fatigue, but more importantly, it was filled with a desperate determination. "Now, it's a matter of life and death for Handong! The higher-ups are watching us, and the people of the country are watching us! Whether the ship of Handong will sink in this storm depends on whether we can hold the rudder steady!"

"How can Handong unite forever? How can we form a united front? I don't need to explain further!"

"After the meeting, everyone go back home, manage yourselves, and mind your mouths. Remember, from now on, all of us are guilty. Any disturbance could trigger a domino effect, and then no one will be able to escape!"

Chapter 71 Hou Liangping calls for help!

There was a political earthquake in Handong Province. Sha Ruijin and others formed an alliance and were ready for battle.

Jingzhou Armed Forces Department, solitary confinement room.

Hou Liangping felt as if all the bones in his body were torn apart and then pieced together again, and every breath caused severe pain in his chest.

Hou Liangping lay on the cold concrete floor, his cheek pressed against the rough ground, feeling the chill that could penetrate into his bones.

His face was swollen like a steamed bun, and dark purple blood scabs were congealed at the corners of his eyes and mouth.

The soldiers who were responsible for "educating" him were extremely cruel. They didn't care whether it was his face or his buttocks, they beat him with belts until his skin was torn and flesh was exposed.

He vomited out all the arrogance of the director of the investigation department of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, along with the acid in his stomach.

Now, he is honest.

It's not about giving in, it's about being a hero and not suffering a loss in front of you.

He kept repeating to himself that this was only temporary, just a strategy.

He was like a wolf trapped in a trap, with his fangs retracted, lying on the ground licking his wounds, but the fire burning in his eyes never went out.

These soldiers, these idiots!

They had no idea who they were arresting!

He is Hou Liangping!

The rising star of the Supreme People’s Procuratorate!

His wife is Zhong Xiaoai, a cadre of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection!

If these people dare to touch him, they will be in huge trouble.

Xiao Ai, my wife, she must have a way.

She must be going crazy with anxiety and is using all her connections to find him.

As long as she calls her father and her teacher, Handong's fate will be turned upside down!

When he thought of Zhong Xiaoai, Hou Liangping felt a warmth in his heart, like a faint flame in the snow.

This flame supported him and prevented him from completely collapsing in the pain and humiliation.

He even began to think that once he got out, he would make the soldiers who beat him take off their uniforms and let them know what the iron fist of the law was.

Just as he was immersed in this false pleasure of revenge, a chaotic and heavy sound of footsteps was heard outside the heavy iron door of the confinement room.

Then, there was the sound of another iron door opening at the end of the corridor. The harsh sound of metal friction made Hou Liangping's anus tighten suddenly.

Getting beaten again?!

He struggled to raise his upper body, moved to the iron door of his confinement cell, and put his swollen eyes to the narrow observation port.

In sight, there is a dim corridor.

Several soldiers in camouflage training uniforms, standing as straight as guns, were escorting a man in an executive jacket towards the detention room next to him.

The man's executive jacket was wrinkled, his hair was a little disheveled, and his face was a mixture of shock and anger.

When the familiar face was completely exposed in the field of view of the observation port, Hou Liangping's pupils suddenly contracted.

Chen Hai!

How could it be Chen Hai? !

Isn’t he the director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Handong Provincial Procuratorate?

He is the local judicial force in Handong, his ally, and his most important chess piece in this game!

How dare they arrest Chen Hai?

A chill more biting than the pain in his body instantly rushed from Hou Liangping's tailbone to the top of his head.

He originally thought that this was just a revenge act against him personally, orchestrated by Gao Yuliang or Li Dakang behind the scenes.

But now, even Chen Hai was arrested and locked up next to him.

The nature of things has completely changed.

This isn't revenge, it's a cleansing.

"Bang--!"

The iron door of the adjacent confinement room was roughly opened, and Chen Hai was pushed in without any courtesy by two soldiers. He stumbled and almost fell.

Then, the iron door slammed shut, and the sound of the lock echoed in the empty corridor, like a heavy hammer hitting Hou Liangping's heart.

He's done.

This thought popped up uncontrollably, like a poisonous snake, tightly wrapping around his heart.

wrong.

Don't panic!

Don’t panic!

Hou Liangping slapped his face hard, trying to use the pain to wake himself up.

The more times like this, the more calm you need to be.

Chen Hai was captured, which shows that the enemy has lost all hope and has completely lost face.

But on the other hand, this also shows that things have become out of control.

The bigger the commotion, the better it is for him!

He took a deep breath, suppressed the taste of blood in his throat, and pounded on the iron door on his side with all his strength.

"Bang! Bang bang!"

"Chen Hai! Is that you? Chen Hai!"

His voice became hoarse and unpleasant due to excitement and pain, like an old bellows.

There was a dead silence next door for a few seconds before Chen Hai's equally shocked voice could be heard: "Monkey? Is that you? Why are you here too?"

"Leave me alone!"

Hou Liangping pressed himself against the cold iron door anxiously, so that his voice could be heard more clearly. "Why did they arrest you?!"

"You're asking even though you know the answer!"

"Don't you know who you arrested?"

Chen Hai's voice was filled with anger and frustration. "I just came out of a meeting at the Provincial Party Committee, and right in front of the Provincial Procuratorate, a military vehicle took me away! My phone and ID were all confiscated, without any formalities at all! I didn't know how to do it, but I was just helping you save some time, and you're arresting me?!"

Hou Liangping smiled bitterly in his heart.

"My wife is Zhong Xiaoai. I was arrested, so why shouldn't you be arrested?"

"Chen Hai, listen to me!"

Hou Liangping lowered his voice to a whisper and spoke quickly, "The situation is very serious now. We may have made a huge mistake. The Zhao Yuanchao I arrested is the commander of the 20th Army!"

"I told you a long time ago! I told you to be more careful, but you just wouldn't listen!"

Chen Hai's voice was filled with complaints, "What should we do now? We are locked up in a place like this, and there is no one to turn to for help!"

"There is a way!"

Hou Liangping's eyes gleamed in the darkness, the madness of a gambler as he reveals his final hand. "Have you forgotten who your father is?"

There was silence next door.

Chen Yanshi.

That upright and incorruptible old prosecutor.

"My Father?"

Chen Hai's voice was a little hesitant. "He has been retired for many years. Is it still useful to talk now?"

"It's only useful because he's retired!"

Hou Liangping's speech was getting faster and faster, his thoughts becoming clearer in the desperate situation. "Listen, find a chance to tell the people outside that you want to see your father, Chen Yanshi! They won't dare to stop you! Your father is a veteran revolutionary with a long history and high prestige! If he knew that you were arrested by the army for no reason, he would be furious!"

"This……"

"Listen to me!"
