Chapter 426 The Storm Is Brewing
Ning Wei can't trust anyone anymore; no matter how high-sounding the words are, don't try to fool him.
"Aren't you afraid I'll just pretend to agree and then never come back?"
Qi Tongwei lit a cigarette, a half-smile on his face, "If you dare to run, I'll blow up your mother's grave and make you a model of filial piety."
These words immediately ignited Ning Wei's anger, because he truly was a very filial son.
"You dare! You dare! You dare!"
Ning Wei glared angrily, like a mad hyena, almost breaking free of his handcuffs, because he could have slit Qi Tongwei's throat without hesitation without even blinking at those words.
Qi Tongwei stood up, walked up to Ning Wei, and stared at him with the same hungry wolf-like gaze, as if he were bloodthirsty and ruthless.
"Do you think I'm playing house with you?"
Ning Wei felt suffocated by Qi Tongwei's aura. His intuition told him that this person was ruthless and only had a legal license to kill.
Qi Tongwei patted Ning Wei on the shoulder, "If someone like you lived in a chaotic era, you might become a great hero who upholds justice."
"Unfortunately, we live in a time of peace and prosperity, where everyone is an ant before the state's violent machinery, including you and me."
This is absolutely true. Ning Wei has been in the army for many years and there are many people with similar skills to him. He is not resistant to Qi Tongwei's blatant threat.
What if I don't agree?
Qi Tongwei withdrew his hand, took a drag of his cigarette, and said, "Then you'd better stay in prison obediently. If you dare to escape, I guarantee I'll shoot you dead."
This person is terrifying. Ning Wei dared not underestimate him in the slightest. It was as if the other party didn't take him seriously at all. He was also a proud person, and this feeling was very uncomfortable.
For him, going undercover and working for the country is indeed an opportunity.
"I can help you with things, but there are conditions."
Qi Tongwei does not advocate for unpaid sacrifices, but of course, we cannot let heroes shed blood and tears.
"Tell me about it."
Ning Wei's biggest wish right now is to pay back the 50 yuan he borrowed from Zhong Yuemin. Others may be disloyal, but he can't let his older brother Zhong Yuemin go to jail.
"One million, I'd sell my life to you."
A million dollars is a cheap price to pay for a life. Qi Tongwei doesn't care about the money. He thinks it's a good deed to pull someone back from the brink of crime.
"I can give you every penny of the money."
"But you're not selling your life to me, you're selling it to the country, to the people, and to yourself."
"I respect you as a man, and I hope you keep your word; otherwise, I will also do what I said I would do."
Now that things had come to this, Ning Wei made up his mind that as long as the other party didn't lie to him, he was willing to risk his life to make a big splash.
His mother, if she could see him becoming a good person, would surely be very pleased.
When can I leave?
Even if it meant facing a life-or-death situation, Qi Tongwei would make the same choice as him when faced with such an opportunity.
"Soon, we'll arrange anything else you need to take care of."
"Thank you"
This thank you seemed to pull Ning Wei back to reality. He knew very well that if he escaped from prison, he would not have a good ending. Now he had a chance to start over.
Having dealt with Ning Wei, Qi Tongwei left the rest to the National Security Bureau to arrange. He flew to Shenzhen overnight and secretly returned to Tianhe City.
Chenjiazhai.
Chen Wenxiong sipped his Kung Fu tea. "I received news from Kyoto that Qi Tongwei, that bastard, got into a fight and was detained."
Chen Wensheng was overjoyed, "Brother, this is fantastic news! That bastard's not here, I can finally ship out a batch of goods!"
Chen Wenxiong took a sip of tea, but he wasn't so optimistic. "Fifth Brother, even if that bastard isn't here, we can't be careless. He might be playing a trick on us, feigning one thing while secretly doing another."
Chen Wensheng scoffed, "Brother, aren't you giving that bastard too much credit? The people from the Ministry of Public Security have all left, which means the plan to make Kang Yaobei a scapegoat was a success."
"Leaders are human too. As long as they have achievements to report to their superiors, nobody wants to get into trouble."
That being said, Chen Wenxiong would never underestimate the wisdom of his leaders. Those who could climb step by step from a junior staff member to the provincial party committee and even the central government must be exceptional individuals.
"Fifth Brother, that bastard does have some connections in Kyoto; we absolutely cannot let our guard down."
"Don't make any rash moves on your end for now. Send Ye Xingguo's gift to him; it'll be a good opportunity to test that bastard."
Chen Wensheng nodded. "Okay, brother, I'll arrange it right away."
Drugs are currently in short supply on the market. This is partly due to the strict crackdown by the police, and partly because a large market has been vacated after Kang Yaobei's death. Chen Wensheng plans to monopolize the entire Tianhe City market.
Because Qi Tongwei had suspected Yunfeng Temple last time, Chen Wensheng had been holding back, since the drugs were hidden there, but he couldn't wait to ship them out.
After disguising himself, Qi Tongwei found a small hotel to sleep in, and was almost dragged into an alley by a brothel owner to eat fast food.
"Director Ye, I'm back."
Ye Xingguo had a bit of a cold, and his nose was stuffy. "I heard you caused trouble in Kyoto again. Was it on purpose?"
"Damn it, is this all the character I am?" Qi Tongwei was very dissatisfied and prayed to Heaven to distinguish between the loyal and the treacherous.
"Director Ye, you're wronging me. I was just fulfilling my duty as a police officer, maintaining constant vigilance against criminals."
Ye Xingguo coughed. "You little brat, I can't argue with you. Be careful, I have a feeling something's about to happen."
"Director Ye, I can't speak for the entire eastern Guangdong region, but I must eradicate all the drug dealers in Tianhe City, especially that big drug lord, Fifth Master."
Ye Xingguo liked hearing this very much. As a people's police officer, one must have this kind of belief in fighting criminals.
"I believe in you, kid. Keep in touch, and don't try to be a lone hero."
"Yes, Director Ye."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Tongwei contacted Zhan Ying, the captain of the armed police. The armed police were still secretly watching Yunfeng Temple, but they did not find anything unusual.
Ye Xingguo was woken up by a phone call in the middle of the night. His nephew, Ye Lang, had been arrested by the police after being accused of rape by a girl. His family was frantic, as the crime of hooliganism had not yet been abolished and he could potentially face execution.
After dealing with his family, Ye Xingguo lit a cigarette to calm himself down. In his memory, his nephew Ye Lang was an honest boy who would never do something as outrageous as rape.
It just so happens that this happened at this time. Is it a coincidence, or is someone deliberately setting a trap to attack the people around him and distract him? If it's the latter, then it means that the other party has been driven to desperation, which is a good thing.
As the head of the Public Security Bureau, one must set an example. Sometimes one can be flexible in handling matters, but one cannot violate principles, otherwise it is easy for opponents to seize on any evidence.
Reaching the provincial-level leadership level is like walking on thin ice every day, because the higher you climb, the fewer positions there are.
Ye Xingguo did not immediately call the police station, but waited until the next day to send Chen Shunjun to handle the matter. He had only one request: to investigate the truth in a fact-based manner. If it was indeed rape, then it should be dealt with according to the law.
Xiuzhu Branch.
Chen Shunjun, along with Lan Ying and Wu Dali, met Ye Lang in the interrogation room. Ye Lang was about to graduate from university and planned to study abroad after graduation. Last night, he met a beautiful girl at a bar with his friends. The two chatted happily and, when their feelings deepened, they naturally went to a hotel. Unexpectedly, the girl later accused him of rape.
He couldn't understand why the two of them were so happy, but then turned on each other and refused to acknowledge each other. If it was money, he could give it to them, but people's hearts are treacherous. What deep-seated hatred could drive them to send him to prison and ruin his life?
