Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Although Guo Pingchuan had some doubts about this somewhat special order, he still agreed. After hanging up the phone, he looked back at Feng Sizhe. To be honest, he was a little puzzled at the time. He thought that Feng Sizhe was using his connections to pressure him. Why couldn't he discuss things directly? Why did he have to use Commander Deng to pressure him? This was a complete lack of trust in him. Therefore, when Guo Pingchuan finished speaking, his tone was not as kind as before. "Mayor Feng, just tell me what you want to say. I will do my best to cooperate."

"Okay." Feng Sizhe was concerned about Ren Yingying's safety, so he didn't think about what Guo Pingchuan's attitude was now. He directly asked the city district to dispatch troops to block every road leading out of Lianhua City, and at the same time set up checkpoints to strictly check every passing pedestrian and vehicle.

Feng Sizhe suddenly made this request, which made Guo Pingchuan couldn't help but be stunned after hearing it, because he really couldn't understand why he was asked to come to him for such a big matter. That's right, it's not enough to just rely on Feng Sizhe to discuss this matter with him. Either the higher authorities asked him to do this, or the municipal party committee reached a unanimous decision to let him do this, otherwise Feng Sizhe himself would not have such great ability. For this reason, after listening to what Feng Sizhe asked, Guo Pingchuan's previous dissatisfaction and distrust immediately disappeared. He finally understood why Feng Sizhe had to report this problem to the higher authorities first. It seems that he didn't want to make himself too embarrassed. It was a pity that he thought he didn't trust him just now.

"Okay, Mayor Feng, I will definitely cooperate with you to the fullest, and I will do whatever you say." Guo Pingchuan no longer had any dissatisfaction, but only words of gratitude. Because if Feng Sizhe came to talk to him directly, he would definitely not agree, and doing so would only hurt the relationship between them.

"Okay, thank you Commander Guo. The person you are responsible for looking for is a girl. She is 22 years old and a reporter for Xinhua News Agency. Here, this is her photo. Please make a copy and pass it on to the troops below." As Feng Sizhe spoke, he took out Ren Yingying's photo and handed it to Guo Pingchuan.

Guo Pingchuan was not surprised when Feng Sizhe said that he had sent so many people just to find a girl. Commander Deng of the Provincial Military Region had made it very clear on the phone that he should obey Feng Sizhe in everything. Now that he had received the order, he only had to execute it. He nodded and went to do it immediately.

In this way, all the people in the Lianhua City Military Sub-district took action, and after leaving the city sub-district, Feng Sizhe went straight to the city party secretary Xia Xiangjia in the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee Courtyard. Since he had used people from the city military sub-district, he had to explain clearly to the municipal party secretary.

Xia Xiang had just received a report from his subordinates saying that people from the city's military sub-district were suddenly dispatched in large numbers and controlled every channel from Lianhua City to the outside world. He was wondering what was going on and why he, as the secretary of the municipal party committee, was still unclear about what had happened when Feng Sizhe came to his home and reported on the matter.

"Secretary Xia, I was the one who arranged the actions concerning the city military sub-district." Feng Sizhe told Xia Xiang truthfully as soon as he saw him.

"You arranged it." Xia Xiang was a little confused about what Feng Sizhe said. Although Feng Sizhe also had military merits, it was impossible for the city military sub-district to listen to him and be under his control.

"Yes, this is what happened. A friend of mine, a female reporter named Ren Yingying from the Xinhua News Agency in Kyoto, suddenly disappeared. I suspect she was kidnapped, so I had to mobilize people from the military sub-district. I hope Secretary Xia can understand." Feng Sizhe faced Xia Xiang and gave a brief report on the situation.

Hearing that such a big fuss was made just because one of Feng Sizhe's friends was missing, Xia Xiang was even more confused, "What is going on? Sizhe, please explain it to me clearly." Xia Xiang was really confused, because he knew that even if Feng Sizhe was making trouble, Commander Guo Pingchuan of the city division would not follow suit. You know, mobilizing the army is a big deal in this peacetime. If something goes wrong, the relevant personnel will be punished, and it is even normal to lose their jobs.

"This is what happened..." Feng Sizhe had no intention of hiding anything from Xia Xiang. She was someone who was wholeheartedly friendly with him, so he couldn't hide anything. He told her everything clearly, including how he called his grandfather and asked him to give orders to the Southern Military Region, which then gave orders to the Guangxi Provincial Military Region, and finally the Guangxi Provincial Military Region gave orders to the Lianhua City Military Sub-district, etc. Finally, of course, he had to make Ren Yingying's identity clear.

"What? You said that this reporter is the daughter of Ren, the director of the General Office of the Central Committee?" Xia Xiang asked in surprise.

The military order just now had made Xia Xiang a little confused. He knew that Director Zhao Mingyuan's order was similar to the order of the Military Commission, but these shocks were not enough. What shocked him even more was Ren Yingying's true identity. Such a young lady with a background came to Lianhua City, but he, as the secretary of the municipal party committee, didn't even know about it. This was really a dereliction of duty.

"Yes. Otherwise I wouldn't be so nervous." Feng Sizhe nodded and replied.

"We must find it quickly, and make sure nothing happens." Xia Xiang finally realized the seriousness of the situation, so he immediately agreed.

"Yes, so I immediately asked the officers and soldiers of the city military district to guard all the passages, and then started a carpet search. I believe the results will be out soon." Feng Sizhe answered calmly. Before this, he had asked Chen Hu to take all the members of the Xing family squad in Lianhua City to start looking for Ren Yingying's whereabouts, and asked them to start from the vegetable market to see if there were any eyewitnesses who could provide useful clues.

"Good, I hope there will be results soon, I hope there will be results soon." Xia Xiang felt a little relieved when he heard Feng Sizhe say this. He knew very well that if anything happened to Ren Yingying, Ren Tianfang would obviously not let it go. In that case, the Guanggui Provincial Party Committee would be under tremendous pressure. Under such circumstances, he, as the secretary of the Lianhua Municipal Party Committee where the accident happened, would naturally be the first to bear the brunt and shoulder the responsibility.

After saying these words, Xia Xiang seemed to have something else in mind. "By the way, the military sub-district has dispatched troops. What about the Municipal Public Security Bureau? Have you said hello there?"

"I went to report the case, but Comrade Bei Jinlong said that police cannot be dispatched to investigate if the person has been missing for less than 24 hours. You also know that too many people cannot know about Ren Yingying's identity. What if the bad guys don't know her identity? If it is really publicized, it will only be more detrimental to Ren Yingying's safety." Feng Sizhe briefly recounted the process of reporting the case to the Municipal Public Security Bureau. The reason why he did not directly tell Bei Jinlong about Ren Yingying's identity was because he did not trust him and was afraid that things would be messed up if he knew about it.

Xia Xiang thought that Feng Sizhe's words made sense. If Ren Yingying's identity was known to more people, it would be of no benefit. So he nodded and said, "Well, it seems that we can't tell you, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. But the Municipal Public Security Bureau still has to get involved. After all, they are more familiar with the situation in the city. So, I will call Bei Jinlong personally and ask him to mobilize all the police forces immediately.

Xia Xiang did what he said. He took out his cell phone, found Bei Jinlong's phone number and called him.

Bei Jinlong was waiting in a room in the abandoned factory for Ren Yingying to figure out what was going on when he received a call from Xia Xiang. He saw that it was the municipal party secretary calling, so he had to answer the call, and then said in a respectful tone, "Secretary Xia, this is Bei Jinlong."

"Comrade Jinlong, I now order you in the name of the Municipal Party Committee to send out all the police immediately. You must find the whereabouts of a female reporter named Ren Yingying. Do you understand?" As soon as the call was connected, Xia Xiang gave the order in the name of the Lianhua Municipal Party Committee.

"Ah? Why is that?" Bei Jinlong really wanted to say that a case cannot be filed if the person is missing for less than 24 hours. He had already discussed this matter with Feng Sizhe. Could it be that this man went to find Secretary Xia again and convinced him?

"Don't ask why, just do it. I'm telling you, do it right away. Otherwise, you will be responsible for anything that happens." Xia Xiang didn't want to waste time talking to Bei Jinlong at this time. Now the first priority was to find Ren Yingying and ensure her safety.

The municipal party secretary was furious, and Bei Jinlong didn't know what to say, so he could only nod and say, "Okay, I'll do it right away."

Then, Bei Jinlong hung up the phone, wondering what was going on. Was Ren Yingying really so important to Feng Sizhe that he was willing to report the matter to Secretary Xia and investigate? If so, did that mean Ren Yingying was important to Feng Sizhe, or that there was nothing wrong between the two of them? Otherwise, why would he dare to do this?

Just as Bei Jinlong was daydreaming, his phone rang. Seeing that the number was from his confidant in the police station, he picked up the phone and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Director, the city's military sub-district suddenly dispatched people to block all the roads and intersections leading to other places in Lianhua City. What on earth is going on? How come our police didn't get any information?"

Bei Jinlong was even more surprised when he heard his subordinates say that the troops had been dispatched. "What? You said that the troops from the city military district have all come out?"

"Yes, Chief." The man didn't dare to lie and told the truth.
