Chapter 406 The Big Boss's Death Order
"Understood, Qizhi."
After the two parted ways down the mountain, Qi Tongwei rushed back to the provincial government for a meeting and asked Chen Shunjun to send a team to help Lan Ying search for Huang Xiaolan at the Haojue Nightclub.
Upon returning to the villa, Chen Wensheng immediately called Chen Daju, the manager of Haojue Nightclub, who was actually the behind-the-scenes owner of the nightclub.
"Chen Daju, has a woman named Huang Xiaolan been working at the nightclub these past couple of days?"
Chen Daju was in his office, with one arm around a young lady and the other smoking a cigar. Startled, he immediately stood up.
"Brother Sheng, what happened?"
Chen Wensheng was furious. "Just answer my questions. If you don't know, go look it up right now!"
Seeing his older brother so angry, Chen Daju felt terrified. "Brother Sheng, there is a woman named Huang Xiaolan. That bitch is being unreasonable and is locked up in the basement."
Release her immediately.
Chen Wensheng was worried that Qi Tongwei, that bastard, would actually use the search warrant to search Yunfeng Temple. After all, that bastard was in cahoots with Ye Xingguo and would do anything.
Chen Daju was a little confused. "Brother Sheng, I checked this woman's background. Her family has no power or influence, so there's nothing to worry about."
"Bullshit!"
Chen Wensheng cursed, "That bastard Qi Tongwei has even investigated Yunfeng Temple! Make sure she keeps quiet and doesn't say anything out of line!"
Chen Daju was in a dilemma, after all, Huang Xiaolan had already been raped. "Brother Sheng, that bitch is a bit stubborn, what if she says something out of line? Should we just send her to Hong Kong to work as a prostitute?"
Chen Wensheng was furious. "Are you fucking deaf to what I'm saying? That bastard Qi Tongwei is about to investigate Yunfeng Temple. She has a brother, right? Then threaten her family's lives. Do I have to teach you how to do that?"
"Yes, yes, Brother Sheng, I promise I won't let that bitch talk nonsense."
With his elder brother so angry, Chen Daju dared not refute him. However, it was a real pity to let Huang Xiaolan go. With her beauty, if she were properly trained, she would surely attract customers who would flock to her to pay for sex.
"Chen Daju, listen carefully. If that bastard Qi Tongwei gets any leverage over this, you'll be the one to take responsibility."
Chen Wensheng was also worried about accidents, after all, once a woman enters a nightclub, she rarely comes out unscathed.
"Brother Sheng, I promise I'll handle this cleanly and it won't implicate the nightclub."
Chen Daju had a variety of methods for dealing with disobedient young ladies. These days were chaotic, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that gangsters were everywhere.
After dealing with the situation, Chen Wensheng felt a little relieved. He absolutely could not lose his composure, as that bastard Qi Tongwei might be waiting for him to make a mistake.
Back at the provincial department, Qi Tongwei rushed to the conference room, knocked on the door, and immediately saluted.
"I'm sorry, esteemed leaders, I'm late."
Qing Zhonghua, Vice Minister of Public Security, sat in the middle, wearing a friendly smile.
"You must be Comrade Qi Tongwei."
Qi Tongwei saluted again, "Yes, sir."
Qing Zhonghua was very kind and said with a smile, "We've been waiting for you alone, so please sit down quickly."
"Thank you, boss."
Qi Tongwei awkwardly sat down at the very back.
Qing Zhonghua's smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression. "Comrades, let's continue the meeting. Eastern Guangdong borders Hong Kong, and drug traffickers are becoming increasingly rampant. Now they've even extended their reach to Beijing. This is absolutely intolerable. I'm here today to give our comrades in Eastern Guangdong a death order: eradicate the drug traffickers. It's of utmost urgency."
"Comrades, as the forefront of reform and opening up, eastern Guangdong is a melting pot of all sorts of people, and I know you are under a lot of pressure. But no matter what, drugs must never be allowed to harm the Chinese nation again."
Thunderous applause erupted in the conference room. From the Opium War onwards, China suffered a century of humiliation, enough to fill two thick history books. It was a century of shame. We must remember history and strive to make ourselves stronger.
Qing Zhonghua waved for silence. "Comrades, eradicating drug traffickers in eastern Guangdong requires the joint efforts of everyone here. I hope you will all take this seriously, or I'll have to punish you."
At this critical moment, Ye Xingguo, as the Director of the Public Security Bureau of Eastern Guangdong, had to step forward and say, "Minister Qing, on behalf of my comrades, I pledge that we will never let the organization down."
Qing Zhonghua still admires Ye Xingguo. He was deeply impressed by Ye Xingguo's last performance in turning the tide and cracking down on a transnational drug trafficking gang, seizing a thousand kilograms of drugs.
"Comrade Xingguo, you bear a heavy responsibility. I believe you will not let the organization down. A few days ago, a drug trafficking gang was busted in Beijing. They said it was a drug dealer named Fifth Master. We must find this Fifth Master as soon as possible."
Ye Xingguo felt ashamed. This drug dealer, Fifth Master, still hadn't been found, and now the Ministry of Public Security had been alerted. It was truly a disgrace to the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Bureau.
"I'm sorry, Minister Qing, I should apologize to the organization."
"Comrade Xingguo, don't blame yourself. The organization put you in the position of Director of the Public Security Bureau because they believe in your abilities. I'm here today with orders from my superiors, and also with their trust in me."
Qing Zhonghua is a former police officer, so he certainly knows how to take down a large criminal gang. With current investigative methods, it is indeed not that easy, but things are done by human effort, and he will never hesitate to replace someone when the time comes.
Ye Xingguo was pleased to hear his leader say that, but he dared not relax at all. At his position, every step forward was difficult, and he also had to avoid making mistakes.
"Thank you, Minister Qing, and thank you for the organization's trust. All comrades of the Guangdong Eastern Public Security Bureau will definitely win this war on drugs."
"Well said, Comrade Xingguo, on the war on drugs!"
Qing Zhonghua led the applause, and another round of applause rang out in the conference room. This applause was for everyone present, and at the same time, it served as a form of encouragement.
As the applause subsided, Qing Zhonghua looked at Qi Tongwei, admiring the young man's abilities. Cracking a 30 billion yuan smuggling case in Shanghai was something not just anyone would dare to do.
"Comrade Qi Tongwei, I'd also like to hear what you have to say."
Qi Tongwei immediately sat up straight, as if he had been suddenly called on by the teacher in school. He had only seen central leaders in the news in his previous life, so it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.
"Reporting to the leader, I will definitely work under Director Ye's leadership to eradicate the drug trafficking gang headed by Fifth Master as soon as possible."
Qing Zhonghua smiled. Everyone says this kid is a living devil, but now he seems like a little wife.
"Tell me, kid, do you have any leads?"
In front of the big boss, Qi Tongwei still didn't dare to speak recklessly. After all, he didn't know the big boss's temper. He had to be reckless when necessary, but he couldn't be a stubborn fool.
"Reporting to the leader, we do have some doubts, but we are still verifying them."
"Good, being bold in questioning and carefully verifying—these are qualities highly valued by a police officer."
Qing Zhonghua did not pursue the clues further, as asking too many questions would only put pressure on the police officers handling the case.
"I just heard you went to the temple to burn incense and pray to Buddha. I'm curious, what were you asking the Bodhisattva to bless you with? Love or wealth?"
Upon hearing this, the leaders present couldn't help but laugh, which lightened the atmosphere in the meeting room.
Qi Tongwei looked embarrassed. "Damn, even this big boss is so gossipy."
