Chapter 127: Secret Investigation

  I smiled and said: What year is it this year?

  "This question of mine made them even more confused, and the mad dog said: What's wrong with 1998?"

  That's right, Hong Kong returned in '97 and Macau returned in '99.

  There is still more than a year's time before Macau returns. Which country has experienced such a thing, I think probably none.

  Such a big thing, once exposed, will be very passive in the world, so the country will not openly pursue it, only secretly investigate.

  At the same time, in the conference room of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

  The director of the Provincial Public Security Department, Liu Bo, sat there with a serious face and said to the people below: Today I received an order from above and personally investigated this case.

  "Kidnapping, these two words, we only hear in movies and TV shows, but now it's happening right next to us. It can be said that this is something that has never happened since the founding of our country, and this incident has already posed a threat to the nation. The central government has ordered us to crack the case as soon as possible, to catch these vicious criminals and deal with them severely. However, there's a difficult situation in front of us - Macau is about to return, so we can't openly pursue them, only secretly investigate."

  "Comrade Xiao Changhe will temporarily stop working, and I will act on his behalf."

  "Now our priority is to investigate all those with a black society background in this city, I think they are local snakes and should know some clues or whether anyone of them has participated."

  "If anyone dares to bend the law for personal gain and leak information, don't blame me Liu Bo for not showing regard for my colleagues' feelings..."

  "I watched them and said: take care of your subordinates, don't let them cause trouble at this time. It can be said that the city is now surging with undercurrents, except for the ordinary people who do not know the truth, whether it is government officials or various large and small gangs in the underworld, they are all watching with bated breath, waiting for the outcome of this matter."

  It's common knowledge that some government officials will definitely be sacked because of this incident. If there are no results, they'll catch some gangsters as scapegoats. As for who gets sacked and who becomes the scapegoat, it depends on who has a stronger backstage supporter and who has more power. Because in this world, only the strong can protect themselves well.

  "After you go back, you must discipline them well and don't let them be scapegoated and taken away. If that happens, no one can help him, he'll just have to wait for death."

  "Alright everyone, let's head back for now. We'll arrange our next move after this matter has passed."

  "Oh... right, Ding Chao, you personally go to Shenyang and keep an eye on Wei Guoqiang. Don't let him escape. Once we rescue Chi Hongjun, he will definitely take action. If he escapes, all our efforts will be in vain."

  Ding Chao nodded and said: I'll go now.

  I stood up and said to Chen Kun and Cao Rui, who had been silent all along: Let's go back to class together, don't stay here for the time being.

  Chen Kun stood up and followed me out, Cao Wei following behind us.

  The streets are still bustling with people coming and going, and the prosperity remains unchanged. It seems that people have not been affected by what happened early this morning.

  "We returned to school just in time for the morning self-study session. I walked into the classroom, sat down at my seat, and Yezi looked at me and asked: What did you do all day yesterday? You didn't come to class?"
