Chapter 53: The Forbidden Land of Fan Luan Naturally Opens

  Seeing the orderly, Lai, standing at the door and not leaving, Qiu Zhiguo suddenly became furious, just about to scold him, but the orderly's eyes conveyed a message, and he suddenly realized. Qiu Zhiguo smiled and said to Xue Xiang: "Look at my memory, I've already sent Si Yong that kid to the hospital to visit Comrade Chao Tian, and now I'll have someone call the hospital. Actually, the situation grasped by the leaders is somewhat different from reality. Of course, it's not the leaders' mistake, but rather the comrades below who didn't investigate carefully, and the situation is like this..." He still thought Xue Xiang was on Jiang Chao Tian's side, and he repeated what had happened in the afternoon, naturally talking about the evil deeds of the people.

  Qiu Zhiguo put down the phone and warmly invited Xue to sit down. He estimated that the young man in front of him might be a relative or even a family member of General An Lao. Judging from the uniform of the guard behind him, he knew it was the most elite special forces company of the Central Guard Regiment, which only high-ranking officials and top leaders were entitled to have as their bodyguards.

  At this moment, Si Yong and Wen Hong were busy taking care of Jiang Chao Tian in his hospital room. Jiang Chao Tian was not seriously injured, he had just suffered a concussion and a heart attack, but he had woken up before being sent to the hospital. The doctor said he was fine and could be discharged. However, Jiang Chao Tian refused to listen and after making a few phone calls, he checked into a high-ranking official's ward. As a result, many people came to visit him. Jiang Chao Tian wanted to make a big deal out of this and get his father's attention, so that his father would take some action and speak up for him, allowing him to vent his anger.

  Xue Xiang's mind was preoccupied with the safety of Kang Tong and Lei Xiaotian. He had intended to have Qiu Pangzi hand over the people first, but unexpectedly, he received a phone call asking him to return and take responsibility for the crime. Later, he distorted the facts and confused right and wrong, rambling on for half a day.

  Xue Xiang ignored his enthusiastic attempts to persuade him to sit down and coldly said: "Commander Qiu, are you trying to feign ignorance with me? The intelligence we received was that the commander of the 12th Regiment's directly affiliated guard company, Si Yong, had mobilized troops without authorization and attacked Comrade Jiang Chaotian. Two enthusiastic police officers happened to be passing by and participated in rescuing Comrade Jiang Chaotian, but they were outnumbered and taken away by you.

  This is the capital city, a place of great virtue and harmony, where the military and police are supposed to work together in unity. Your actions are not only unbecoming but also very untimely. The J-Committee attaches great importance to this case for two reasons: Firstly, your elite guard regiment has been neglecting its official duties and has become a private bodyguard for certain cadres' children. Not only that, but they have also engaged in shameful behavior, fighting over women.

  Secondly, this case has already alarmed the G-An Department, and Director Jiang of the G-An Department personally called the J-Committee, causing our leader to be extremely outraged. You should understand that during this sensitive period, the public security department is under military control, and the leaders of the G-An Department have been harboring resentment for a long time.

  By detaining these people without reason, aren't you giving others an excuse to attack us? Commander Qiu, do you plan to take responsibility for this?"

  Xue is making a big show, turning black and white upside down, diverting the contradiction, making things sound mysterious and ominous. G An's matter was just an excuse for him to make a scene, he didn't care if it got exposed, anyway tonight's commotion would definitely be known outside, he deliberately drove old man's car, showing off in public what's the point of that. Besides, even if it gets exposed, he can just push it onto old man, his wallet is big enough to hold everything.

  Qiu Zhiguo finally understood that the other party was here to help Tian Shao, and it turned out that they were here to support those two kids who were locked in a closed room. No wonder the person on duty said that the Secretary's car crashed into the railing and rushed in, I thought it was just nonsense before, but it was true, this needs to be handled carefully.

  Qiu Zhiguo was most afraid of taking responsibility, especially ZZ responsibility. In such a big ZZ environment, taking on this responsibility not only meant losing his official position but also risking his life. He couldn't care about flattering the deputy governor or the vice president; no matter how powerful they were, they couldn't control what happened to him, while a single order from the J Committee leader could make him go home and hug his children.

  Qiu Zhiguo tried his best to stand up straight, sucking in his belly, and said solemnly: "Xue Consultant, you must be clear about this. I didn't know those two comrades were people's police officers either. Besides, it was all Shi Yong who took the initiative without asking for instructions, and he was the one who brought the two civil police officers back. It really has nothing to do with me. If you don't believe me, ask Li Zhengwei and Xiao Consultant; did Shi Yong report to the team before arresting people?"

  Qiu Zhiguo kicked Shi Yong flying this time. Now it's every man for himself.

  Li Li and Xiao Guang entered the battalion commander's office without saying a word, standing at attention with a standard military posture, eyes looking down, nose looking inward, a Buddha-like expression, refusing to open their mouths. They had long discovered that this young security officer was coming to stir up trouble, and they would rather avoid such a fight than get involved. If the battalion commander hadn't ordered them to stay, the two of them would have run away without a trace. Now that the battalion commander has spoken, it's not good to not respond, in fact, the battalion headquarters really hadn't received Cao Yu's report, so they had to tell the truth.

  Xue Xiang slammed his palm on Qiu Zhiguo's large red wood desk: "This is absurd, who gave him the power to arbitrarily arrest people? Bring them out immediately!"

  Qiu Zhiguo was startled by Xue's slap and hastily ordered the duty soldier to take him away. Unexpectedly, Li Zhengwei and Xiao Canmou were very perceptive and stopped the duty soldier, who slipped away quietly. Qiu Zhiguo saw the two men's agile figures and silently cursed them, thinking that they might be eyeing his position. No way, he thought, I must win over Comrade Jie's favor, otherwise it won't do if I'm sent back home to take care of the kids or even to review files.

  Li and Xiao quickly brought back two tall young men, looking concerned. The two were Kang Tong and Lei Xiaotian. Except for being taken away and receiving two gunshots, they didn't suffer any other punishment. After being brought back, they were directly thrown into the isolation room. Si Yong and Wen Hong were busy reporting their achievements and flattering others, not even bothering to interrogate them or ask about Zhu Shijun's whereabouts. In their eyes, appeasing Jiang Ya's anger and showing their loyalty was most important. As for Zhu Shijun, who had escaped, he would eventually be caught, so what's the hurry?

  Kang Tong and Lei Xiaotian were enthusiastically supported by Li Zhengwei and Xiao Canmou all the way, and they couldn't shake them off, making a big scene. The two of them were young and strong, and after being hit on the head twice, they quickly recovered, and didn't need Li and Xiao to take care of them like that. What they didn't know was that Li Zhengwei and Xiao Canmou were actually trying to gain image points for themselves in front of the J Committee leaders.

  Kang Tong and Lei Xiaotian were puzzled, weren't they going to be interrogated? How did it turn into a gentle and peaceful approach? As soon as the two stepped into the office door, Xue Xiang came forward to shake hands with them, saying: "Let the two righteous and brave people's police comrades suffer, I represent the J Committee to express high respect and sincere condolences to you. You can rest assured, the suffering you have endured, I already know about it, and will give you a chance to explain." Xue Xiang secretly squeezed their hands twice, hinting that they should not speak for now.

  Kang Tong and Lei Xiao Tian saw Xue Xiang, their eyes were slightly red, and the third brother was speechless. They had already known from Wen Hong's mouth who they had offended this time, and thought that this time they would definitely be finished, having provoked the crown prince. But unexpectedly, within a few hours, the third brother came to pick them up, and they didn't know how much effort he had put in. The two of them had been working with Xue Xiang for many years, and although they couldn't say that their hearts were connected, they still had some tacit understanding. They made a painful expression, covering their heads with their hands and squatting down, but in their hearts, they were deeply admiring, the third brother's abilities were really impressive, he could change his identity at will, and unexpectedly, he was representing the Central Committee.

  Seeing the two performing well, Xue Xiang silently praised them in his heart. However, he loudly shouted: "Deng Squad Leader, quickly dispatch two brothers to send these two heroic police comrades to Hongqi Hospital. Tell the hospital director to do their best to rescue them and say it's Jie's order, go quickly."

  Xue Xianglin temporarily appointed squad leader Deng Tong stood at attention: "Yes!" He pointed to four soldiers, and they lifted two people up and rushed out.

  Qiu Zhengguo was in a great hurry, how could he fall ill in just a short while? This is going to be a big trouble. That damned Si Yong, for the sake of flattering himself, laid such a heavy hand, damn it! Why hasn't he come back yet? If this drags on any longer, Qiu will have to bear the brunt of the leader's anger.

  Qiu Pangzi was like an ant on a hot pot, turning around in circles, wanting to invite Xue Xiang to sit down, but had already said it over ten times and couldn't open his mouth again; wanting to learn from Li and Xiao, standing upright, pretending to be a Bodhisattva, avoiding trouble, but he couldn't bear this kind of hardship either. Moreover, he was the one in charge, so he couldn't avoid it even if he wanted to. What a miserable fate!

  Qiu Zhiguo sighed heavily when Si Yong answered a phone call in the hospital duty room and returned to Jiang Chaotian's ward.

  "Tian Shao, good news! The J Commission has sent someone to our unit, saying they received the news that you were injured. The leader of the J Commission is furious and wants to take revenge for you." Si Yong shouted as soon as he entered the door, with a smile in his eyes, secretly admiring Tian Shao's abilities, thinking that this treasure was not wasted on him.

  "It's him, it's him. Heaven knows who he is, a big shot in our country too. Having suffered such a great injustice, how could there not be some repercussions? Look, Jiang made one phone call and the people from J came running." Wen Hong stood with his waist bent, standing sideways by the bedside, looking up at Jiang Chao Tian with a flattering expression, his lips moving rapidly.

  Jiang Chao Tian was silent for a moment, his mind racing with thoughts. He had been exposed to many schemes and plots since he was young, and he never believed what he saw on the surface. His eyes narrowed into a slit as he asked Si Yong in a low voice: "Which department is it? Which department?"

  Sai Yong saw Jiang Chao Tian got the good news, but his face turned solemn, knowing that things might not be as simple as he thought. He carefully replied: "It's a staff officer from An Ban, I only know this much, and they hung up early on the other end. Oh, it seems like they're in a hurry, saying that Qiu Pangzi has issued an urgent order worth 100,000."

  Jiang Chaotian's face revealed a smile, with an expression of "I knew it", and said: "As I expected, it was Old Man An who intervened. I said so, what a trivial matter could have startled those old men, it turned out to be an excuse to find fault with my old man."

  Sai Yong and Wen Hong stood frozen on the spot, the word "J-Wei" had already exceeded their tolerance range, and unexpectedly, even General An Lao was involved, he had gotten himself into a huge whirlpool. Yes, J-Wei's leadership just cleared his throat, but for the two of them, it was like a massive tsunami.
