Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Why are we brothers still saying these things?" An Guang waved his hand indifferently.

After Feng Sizhe called Duan Yuntao, he said to Yin Fenglei beside him, "Contact Chao Long immediately and ask him to mobilize his forces. In short, we must find Comrade Chen Ping as soon as possible." He knew very well that the big events in the future would take place in Xichuan City, and this chess piece that he had placed earliest must not have any mistakes, otherwise it would bring more passivity to his future preparations.

About forty minutes after Chen Ping disappeared, Duan Yuntao, director of the Sichuan Municipal Public Security Bureau, Chao Long, executive vice director of Ducheng Province, An Guang, deputy director, Yuan Weimin, deputy governor in charge of the Provincial Public Security Department, Zhang Yang, deputy secretary-general of the provincial government, Yin Fenglei, deputy secretary-general of the provincial government and director of the office, and others all started to take action, all at once looking for a policeman named Gao Qiu.

Such a big commotion suddenly occurred that the police officers on duty from the provincial department and Sichuan City Public Security Bureau all became busy. This commotion naturally did not escape the eyes of the newly appointed acting director Xiao Bin.

There was such a big commotion down there, and he hated that he, the acting director, was completely unaware of it. He couldn't help but feel a little angry. In this anger, he came to the provincial department, where Chao Long was mobilizing troops. He immediately walked over and asked loudly, "Comrade Chao Long, what exactly happened?"

Chao Long was giving orders to his close confidants. He had received a call from Yin Fenglei, and now he was very respectful to the governor's secretary. Think about it, Wang Hailiang was ruined because he detained Secretary Yin, and he didn't want this to happen to him.

Hearing the voice, Chao Long turned around and saw Xiao Bin, the current acting director of the Provincial Public Security Department, but until yesterday he was a deputy director who was ranked lower than him.

"Oh, it's the acting director. Haha, it's like this. The deputy mayor of Xichuan City suddenly disappeared, and according to the tip-off, it seems that it was done by Officer Gao Qiu from our Public Security Department. But I checked the police dispatch records in the provincial department, and there is indeed no relevant record. I think it must have been done by him personally, so I thought about gathering people to find this person." After all, Xiao Bin had the identity of the acting director at this time. If he wanted to ask about the work based on this, Chao Long would really cooperate with him.

While Chao Long was saying these words, a group of policemen came over from a distance. Leading the group was Song Dajiang, who had just been promoted from Sichuan City Public Security Bureau Chief to Deputy Director of the Provincial Department.

There was such a big fuss here, it was impossible for Song Dajiang not to know about it. He cursed Gao Qiu in his heart for his incompetence and for revealing such a big flaw. At the same time, he was also thinking that he had to try his best to suppress the situation and at least give Gao Qiu some time. If he could really get something from Chen Ping, then things would not be so passive.

For this reason, he also appeared in the provincial department. He saw Xiao Bin's aggressive look from a distance and thought that he could use this person now, so he walked over quickly and said to Chao Long, "Deputy Director Chao, you suddenly made such a big move without asking the director for permission. I think you are too unorganized and unprincipled."

Right from the start, Song Dajiang started targeting Chao Long. To be honest, this was not his intention. As the former police chief of Sichuan Province, how could he not know what kind of person Chao Long was? This man was ruthless and extremely difficult to deal with. Even when Wang Hailiang was the director, he had to give in to the executive deputy director. So under normal circumstances, Song Dajiang would not think of offending Chao Long. But today was different. Gao Qiu was sent by him. If Chao Long took action and really found Chen Ping, then all his actions would be in vain. If things went wrong, Gao Qiu would even say something nonsense, and then things would be very bad.

There was no other way for Song Dajiang to avoid letting things get to the worst. He had no choice but to step forward.

Song Dajiang suddenly intervened, and was directed at Chao Long, and even hinted at praising Xiao Bin in his words, which made Chao Long's eyes show a hint of anger. Since when did it become the turn of someone like Song Dajiang to make decisions on provincial and ministerial affairs?

Xiao Bin originally did not have much confidence facing Chao Long. Although he was now the acting director, he was used to following Chao Long, so he did not think that he had the prestige to suppress the other party. But now Song Dajiang stood up and spoke completely in his favor, the situation was different. If he had such a deputy director supporting him, then he could fight against the local tyrant in this provincial department.

"Yes, I think what Deputy Director Song said makes sense. Deputy Director Chao, although you are a veteran in our department, shouldn't you inform me before carrying out such a big operation at night?" With the support of Song Dajiang, Xiao Bin was obviously more confident and even dared to scold Chao Long.

Chao Long had never taken Xiao Bin or Song Dajiang seriously, and he took action today only after receiving a call from Yin Fenglei. He had a sword in his hand. Seeing that the two wanted to attack him without even investigating the matter, he could not help but sneer, thinking, "So soon, is Song Dajiang going to be in the same boat with Xiao Bin?" If so, he would give them a good warning and tell them that no matter you are the acting director or the deputy director, you are nothing in my eyes.

Chao Long did not refute his words immediately, which made Xiao Bin feel very comfortable. In his opinion, it was probably because people were averse to his identity as the director of this generation.

Song Dajiang, who was standing by, was also stunned when he saw Chao Long not screaming when bitten as usual. Then he had the same idea as Xiao Bin, thinking that it was better to strike while the iron was hot. He immediately said loudly, "Okay, I think we need to study this matter and Director Xiao to make a decision. I think the rest of you should go away for now."

At this time, Song Dajiang did not forget to mention Xiao Bin's name, which was also his cleverness.

Although Xiao Bin knew that Song Dajiang wanted to use him, he did not object. Instead, he was happy to see it happen. He had just become the director and was thinking of using some people to establish his authority. If he could strike a blow against Chao Long this time, the effect would be most obvious.

An acting director and a deputy director stood up and spoke. The police officers who were temporarily summoned by Chao Long were stunned for a moment. They didn't know what to do. Although they knew that their leader, Chao Long, was very powerful in the provincial department, they naturally didn't want to interrupt since their leader didn't say anything.

Chao Long looked at Xiao Bin and Song Dajiang and saw that they seemed to be targeting him. He couldn't help but sneer and suddenly asked, "Have you finished your performance?"

"Chao Long, what do you mean? How do you talk to the director?" Song Dajiang got angry when he heard Chao Long say that he and others were performing. His authority as a director for many years is not so easy to be questioned and challenged by others.

"Song Dajiang, stop instigating. I'm telling you, no one can do anything today. Now that I've gathered people, I'll take action. As for any consequences, I'll be responsible for them." Chao Long really didn't care about Song Dajiang at all. In his opinion, this man just wanted to use Xiao Bin's prestige to attack him, but he was not afraid at all.

"Chao Long, you..." When Chao Long said this to the deputy director, one could imagine how ugly Song Dajiang's face looked at this moment.

Xiao Bin, who was standing aside, saw Chao Long being so arrogant and could not help but feel a little annoyed. This person did not take him seriously enough. Now he dared to say this in front of him. If he was not here, he didn't know what he would say. Thinking that if he wanted to establish his authority, he had to be ruthless, otherwise it would be difficult to convince the crowd. So he exerted all his strength and said, "Comrade Chao Long..."

"Acting Director, you may not know about this matter. In fact, it was Deputy Secretary-General Yin Fenglei who called me. He said that the governor was very angry about this matter, and vaguely questioned our police's inaction. The reason why I took action immediately was to save the impression of our police in the minds of provincial leaders." Seeing that Xiao Bin seemed unable to bear it any longer, Chao Long quickly revealed his trump card.

Chao Long was not stupid. Xiao Bin was the acting director now. If he really let him say something, things would be difficult to handle. So he couldn't let him finish his words. He had to show his cards first. As long as Xiao Bin didn't say anything final, things would be easy to handle. As for Song Dajiang, he didn't care what he said.

Indeed, Xiao Bin was just trying to set a trap for Chao Long, and wanted to use this incident to intimidate him, but when he heard that it was Deputy Secretary-General Yin who called to ask him to do it, his mouth, which had just opened, immediately closed tightly. What a joke, this Deputy Secretary Yin is Feng Sizhe's secretary Yin Fenglei, and the reason why Wang Hailiang was sent down was because he offended the newly arrived governor, right? If they could get rid of Wang Hailiang, what would a director like me with the word "deputy" on his head count for?

Thinking that if he didn't do it right, he would offend Feng Sizhe and thus endanger his career path, Xiao Bin immediately chose to shut up. Then, under the gaze of everyone, he actually said something that surprised everyone, "Oh, if that's the case, then Mr. Chao, you must pay attention to safety and go back early."
