Zheng Bihui left the hotel and immediately called Director Qin after getting into the car.

"Qin Yuejin, how are you handling your people?"

Director Qin was confused; he hadn't even opened his mouth before he was berated, feeling displeased inside. "Secretary Zheng, what's going on?"

Zheng Bihui explained the situation; Director Qin's first reaction was not surprise, but delight.

The missing project documents were Song Guanchao's major weapon, and the officials of Lingjiang dared not offend him partly because of this.

They feared Song Guanchao might strike them unpredictably.

Now, it's done. This tactic has finally been deployed.

From now on, they won't be threatened by him anymore.

He quickly added, "I'll call Captain Shi to ask about it."

"No need to ask, just come over directly."

He arrived at the Police Department after a dozen minutes.

Director Qin followed him shortly after.

"Captain Shi, what's going on?"

Director Qin entered the room, questioning sternly.

Zheng Bihui stood aside, his face grim.

Captain Shi calmly explained the situation briefly.

Director Qin asked, "Where is Song Guanchao?"

"Don't know."

"What do you mean by 'don't know'? He's the one who called the police; he's not at the scene?"

"Secretary Song reported by phone, providing a location. We searched according to the location and found the items; Secretary Song doesn't need to be here."

Director Qin was at a loss for words.

In terms of procedure, Captain Shi was more knowledgeable.

Director Qin felt somewhat embarrassed, saying, "How could he report to the criminal police team?"

Captain Shi replied, "He has my phone number."

"Director Qin, the issue now is not about who reported the case."

"We did find the items at Secretary Zheng's home."

He looked at Zheng Bihui, "Secretary Zheng, please cooperate with us for a statement."

Zheng Bihui said, "This is a setup!"

"I don't know who put it in my house, but it has nothing to do with me."

"Now, I demand you immediately investigate who came to my house tonight!"

Captain Shi said, "We have retrieved the surveillance from the community; no suspicious persons were found."

"Additionally, please cooperate with us for a statement, Secretary Zheng."

Zheng Bihui glared, "What do you mean by not cooperating? Would I be here if I wasn't cooperating?"

"I said, this is a setup!"

Captain Shi said, "Whether it's a setup needs investigation and evidence. The police only look at evidence; the items were found at Secretary Zheng's home. So, please follow us to the interrogation room, Secretary Zheng."

"Ridiculous!"

Director Qin scolded, "Do you have me, the chief, in your eyes?"

Captain Shi replied calmly, "Director Qin, you are indeed the chief, but now the evidence is conclusive; I am asking the suspect to cooperate with the investigation. Are you trying to break the rules, Director Qin?"

Director Qin cursed, "Break your mother's rules! Shi Qing, you're now removed from your position, get out and go home!"

Captain Shi nodded, "Fine, I will report this to the provincial department."

With those words, Captain Shi turned and walked away.

Director Qin's face twitched, "Get back here!"

"Director Qin, is there anything else?"

"This can be resolved within the department, no need to report to the provincial department."

"I don't think the city can resolve it." Captain Shi pulled out his phone and called Wu Qiangwei on the spot.

Director Qin's heart alerted with alarm, "Who are you calling?"

"Secretary Wu."

"Hang up the phone!"

Captain Shi ignored him completely.

"I told you to hang up the phone!"

Director Qin got furious, calling to others, "Detain him for me!"

However, no one paid attention to him.

Director Qin was so angry that his hands trembled. Xiang Dong, who was in the second team of the criminal police, used to be his man.

Xiang Dong was set up by Song Guanchao with a gun theft charge and is now in the detention center.

Now, the entire criminal police team belongs to Captain Shi, and they don't listen to his orders at all.

The authority of the Public Security Bureau Chief had a vacuum in the criminal police team.

"Is my word not effective anymore?"

Director Qin, angered, was about to rush over to seize the phone when Zheng Bihui stopped him, "Let him call."

This matter can't be hidden.

Since Song Guanchao intended to set him up, he wouldn't give him a chance to downplay the issue.

The call connected.

Captain Shi reported to Wu Qiangwei.

"Okay, Secretary Wu, I understand."

After hanging up, Captain Shi said, "Secretary Wu will be here shortly."

"Director Qin, Secretary Wu asked me to inform you that Secretary Zheng is implicated in the case, and the city will temporarily be under Secretary Wu's control."

No sooner had the words fallen when Director Qin's phone rang.

It's Wu Qiangwei calling.

"Hello, Secretary Wu."

"Qin Yuejin, do you want to go in together with Zheng Bihui?" Wu Qiangwei's tone was cold.

Director Qin was so angry he could grind his molars.

"Secretary Wu, you exaggerate; I just feel that Secretary Zheng is the City Secretary; even if he's a suspect, he shouldn't be interrogated."

"You feel?" Wu Qiangwei scolded, "You are the Chief, a People's Police! Secretary Zheng is first a common citizen, and then the City Secretary. We are servants of the people, no privileges! If you commit a crime, you will be sentenced just the same!"

"The evidence is conclusive now; if you dare to shield him, you'll go in together with him! Are my words clear enough?"

"Clear."

"Stay out of this case; let Captain Shi handle it."

"If I find out you're involved, I will report to the provincial department, and the province will investigate directly."

Director Qin dared not say a word and could only hang up the phone aggrievedly.

He looked at Zheng Bihui, "Secretary Zheng, Secretary Wu asked me to step back."

"Hmm." Zheng Bihui guessed this would be the situation; he looked at Captain Shi, "Take me to the interrogation room."

...

Jiang Yuan received Wu Qiangwei's call and was quite surprised to learn the situation.

He hadn't expected Wu Qiangwei would choose to move against Zheng Bihui at this time.

But on second thought, it was reasonable.

He speculated that Wu Qiangwei was worried Zheng Bihui would secure the position of City Secretary and hinder her political career.

This is why she used such a tactic on the day Zheng Bihui took office, attempting to pull him down.

Jiang Yuan was happy to push her forward.

Having Wu Qiangwei remain at the City Committee, rather than becoming the Mayor, better aligned with his interest considerations.

"It's getting late; let's discuss it tomorrow."

"Okay."

That night, after Secretary Zheng gave his statement, he stayed at the Police Department.

Captain Shi didn't deliberately make things difficult for him; tea and food were prepared, as long as he didn't leave the Police Department.

...

Song Guanchao lay on the bed, holding Xu Xin, who had just weathered a storm, listening to Captain Shi's call.

Upon learning Zheng Bihui was already at the Police Department and Director Qin was sent away, Song Guanchao smiled.

Putting down the phone, Song Guanchao fiddled with Xu Xin's tender breasts, talking to her.

Xu Xin felt touched, but she knew their relationship wasn't suitable for saying thank-you.

She endured the soreness in her lower body, climbed over him, used her warm soft body to tease Xiao Song, gently wrapped him with her scorching tightness, and engulfed him deep into her flower core.
