Chapter 513
Wang Defa and Lao She were quietly waiting for news about Qin Siyang in the warehouse.
At this moment, in the building of the police station in Area 14121.
The lights were on in the office of Deputy Director Du Wei, and he was reading the latest case file report.
The door of Director Cui Zhonghua's office was locked and dark. He had just asked for a week's leave on the grounds that he had something to do at home. Now the entire police station was under the dispatch and arrangement of Deputy Director Du Wei.
This was the third time Cui Zhonghua had asked for leave this month.
No one objected to his request for leave.
Everyone knew that for a person who was about to retire in two years, it was useless to be greedy for power and position. It was better to withdraw gracefully early and make room for the younger generations.
Although Du Wei might not be able to be promoted after Cui Zhonghua retired, he was at least one of the most promising candidates to succeed him as the director of the police station.
Let Du Wei take control of the overall situation in advance and give him some opportunities to perform. If Du Wei is really promoted to the director of the police station in the future, he will be grateful for Cui Zhonghua's friendship.
If you are greedy, you will most likely lose your integrity in your later years.
This is indeed one of the reasons why Cui Zhonghua retired early, but everyone only knows one of the reasons.
The main reason that made him give up power was his judgment of the future direction of things.
Cui Zhonghua's keen political sense made him realize that the broken land of Area 14121 had stirred up an undercurrent vortex.
Especially during the college entrance examination last month, the confrontation between District Chief Pan Youguang and Mayor Chen Zhongming.
The two sides opened up to fight. Cui Zhonghua was just an assistant who helped pass towels under the stage. He was splashed with blood. It was hard for him to imagine what the outcome would be if he participated in it.
So, after Chen Zhongming and Pan Youguang each threw three punches to end the contest, he decided to withdraw.
All the power and burden were thrown on Du Wei.
Du Wei has been checking old cases that have not been solved recently, hoping to find some clues and make contributions.
The previous organizer of these cases was Orlov.
The police station is the second largest institution after the Administration Bureau, and it can be said to be the top institution among non-sequential institutions.
After the end of the world, the security and stability in the safe zone rely heavily on violent institutions such as the police station.
Especially in the 14121 area, which is on the edge of the safe zone, underdeveloped, and has fewer sequential ability users, it is a mixed bag of people and frequent bad incidents. The power of the police station to act is even higher than that of the Administration Bureau.
It's just that some time ago, the police station transferred a detective named Orlov. Not only is his background unknown, but his ability is also terrifying.
During Orlov's tenure as detective, the crime rate in the entire 14121 area dropped significantly, and he did everything by himself.
Cui Zhonghua was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling, while Du Wei was so anxious that he was running around the room.
Orlov led some police officers to investigate most of the cases thoroughly, and quickly arrested the criminals, with a case-solving rate of up to 95%!
The reason why it is not 100% is that the murderer of the theft of the remains of the gods, the burning of corpses in the alley, the murder of Li Jingwen and Zhou Yang, and the disappearance of Zhou Xing has not been caught.
These cases are big and small.
The main reason why Du Wei paid attention to them is that Orlov did not successfully solve these cases.
Du Wei wanted to prove that he had the ability to be the chief of the police station. The best way was to overcome Orlov and solve the cases that he did not solve.
He did not dare to interfere in the theft of the remains of the gods. The burning of corpses and the murder of Li Jingwen and Zhou Yang were not enough in the eyes of the leaders, so he kept his eyes on the disappearance of Zhou Xing.
Now he is carefully reading the report of Zhou Xing's disappearance, trying to find the whereabouts of Zhou Xing's living body or body from the clues.
Of course, in order to be elected as the chief, it is not enough to show his personal ability, he also has to hide his stains.
For example, the Internet cafe with poor business and not much useful information and money.
The benefits and risks are out of proportion. It's time to shut down the Internet cafe and liquidate those who know about it.
Although Du Wei was reading the report on Zhou Xing's disappearance, he would glance at his phone every few minutes.
As his phone didn't make any sound, his brows furrowed more and more.
Finally, he couldn't help but pick up the phone and called.
"Hey. What's going on with you? Why haven't you given me a response after killing someone for so long? Didn't they say that Wang Defa's wife and children were captured?!"
"Boss, Lao She said he wanted to catch up with Wang Defa."
"Catch up?! Are you kidding me! I asked him to kill someone, not to see him off!"
"I see. I'll go in and urge him."
"Five minutes. I want the result!"
"Yes, boss."
After hanging up the phone, Du Wei rubbed his brows: "Why does even Lao She make me so worried?"
After reading two pages of the document, he sighed again: "I can't read it. I always feel empty in my heart until Wang Defa is dead. Especially when I heard that he had an intersection with Qin Siyang."
"But Qin Siyang has an average relationship with him. He has long lost contact, and he doesn't know I exist. So... as long as Wang Defa is killed and the traces are cleaned up, there shouldn't be any big problems."
After that, Du Wei added to himself: "As long as Orlov is not allowed to investigate the case, there shouldn't be any big problems. That old guy is really scary..."
“Ding Ding Ding——”
The ringtone interrupted Du Wei’s thoughts.
Du Wei glanced at his phone, looked at the caller ID, and immediately widened his eyes.
He patted his cheeks to make himself more awake, then took out a stack of documents, glanced at the title, and confirmed that it was correct.
Then he stood up from the chair and answered the phone with a smile.
“Hello, this is Mayor Chen Zhongming.”
“Hello, Mayor Chen, I am Du Wei, deputy director of the 14121 District Police Station. Are you looking for me to understand the public security plan in the last symposium? I have written it all and can report to you now…”
“Let your new district chief handle it. I called you for one thing.”
Du Wei straightened his chest: “Mayor, please give instructions!”
“Stop your mistakes and stop breaking the law.”
Chen Zhongming’s cold tone made him unbelievable.
Du Wei never expected that the mayor, who praised him with a smile at the last city-wide police symposium, would say such heavy words.
The smile on his face turned awkward: "Mayor Chen, are you... kidding?"
"You know what you are doing. Take care of yourself."
After that, Chen Zhongming hung up the phone.
Leaving Du Wei alone in the office doubting his life.
What does it mean? !
What did he do to make the mayor angry?
Recalling Chen Zhongming's brief words, Du Wei's eyes trembled for a moment, and suddenly he thought of something and made a phone call in a hurry.
"Release Wang Defa! Now! Immediately!!!"
