Tang Xiao Long was taken away on the spot.
His trial was scheduled for a week later.
Zhao Li Dong was also scared sick during the assassination attempt.
He stayed in the hospital for three days before being discharged.
Upon his discharge, Zhao Li Dong immediately found Gao Yu Liang and demanded the immediate elimination of Gao Qiang!!
If necessary, he could deploy special police to directly execute Gao Qiang!!
However, Gao Yu Liang rejected Zhao Li Dong.
He claimed that he had no evidence to link Gao Qiang to the crime.
This infuriated Zhao Li Dong!!
He directly summoned Meng De Hai and An Chang Lin to his office.
He ordered them to mobilize the police force to arrest Gao Qiang immediately!!
But Meng De Hai and An Chang Lin just gave bitter smiles.
They said that they could not possibly manage the Public Security Bureau, especially concerning any matters related to the “Zhan Feng Operation”.
It was beyond their control!!
“What are you good for?!!”
“Meng De Hai, the chief of the Public Security Bureau, a real figure of authority!! ”
“You only answer to him, Gao Yu Liang, politically. He has no right to dictate your handling of specific incidents!!”
“What are you afraid of? If anything happens, I, the mayor, will back you up!!”
Zhao Li Dong roared.
Meng De Hai sighed: “Mayor Zhao, this matter is simply beyond our capacity. You know that Secretary Gao has made significant contributions to our crackdown on organized crime in Jing Hai, earning him great respect within our department!”
“Furthermore, our two captains, Qi Tong Wei and An Xin, have close ties with Gao Yu Liang!! ”
“In addition, Secretary Gao has set up a special task force, and he is the head of the team…”
“Alright, stop!”
Zhao Li Dong interrupted Meng De Hai, his face becoming extremely gloomy: “So, you are saying you are now being sidelined by Gao Yu Liang?”
An Chang Lin coughed: “Mayor Zhao, being sidelined refers to subordinates in relation to superiors. Secretary Gao is our superior…”
Zhao Li Dong’s face twitched.
He took a deep breath and said,
“Fine, you can leave.”
“I will definitely raise this issue with the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee!! ”
“How can this continue? Is there any regard for regulations and procedures?!”
Meng De Hai and An Chang Lin looked at each other after hearing this.
Then, they nodded and left.
Zhao Li Dong, however, began to feel anxious.
He had not expected Gao Yu Liang’s control over the Public Security Bureau to have reached this level!!
As for those words he had just spoken, they were merely angry outbursts!!
Gao Yu Liang’s background, coupled with his current achievements.
Even if the issue were raised in the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, no one would oppose him!!
Perhaps, he might even be retaliated against by Gao Yu Liang who would use this as an opportunity to counterattack!!
“Damn it, what should I do?!”
Zhao Li Dong was completely lost.
The situation had completely slipped out of his grasp!!
It was impossible for him to reconcile with Gao Qiang at this point.
They had already broken all ties!!
While Gao Yu Liang seemed calm and composed on the surface.
If he continued his investigation, Gao Qiang could easily bring Zhao Li Dong down with him!!
As for He Li Ming, he was not even worth counting on.
After the assassination attempt on Gao Qiang failed,
his phone calls had gone unanswered!
Should he take the opportunity to escape from Jing Hai before things got out of hand?
This thought flashed through Zhao Li Dong’s mind.
…………
“What?!”
“Stop investigating the Qiang Sheng Group?!”
Meanwhile, in another location.
In the office of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee Secretary.
Qi Tong Wei and An Xin were both astonished when they heard Gao Yu Liang’s decision!!
They couldn’t understand the meaning behind Gao Yu Liang’s decision.
Gao Yu Liang smiled and nodded: “An Xin, you said earlier that Gao Qiang’s wife and child have already left the country, right?”
An Xin nodded: “Yes, they left this morning. Gao Qiang personally sent them to the airport.”
Gao Yu Liang chuckled: “An Xin, you are an old friend of Gao Qiang, how would you describe him?”
An Xin was taken aback by Gao Yu Liang’s question.
He hesitated for a moment,
then involuntarily clenched his fist.
To be honest, he still regretted giving Gao Qiang that bowl of glutinous rice balls!!
“Be objective, An Xin.” Gao Yu Liang said when he noticed An Xin’s hesitation.
An Xin regained his composure, nodded, and fell into contemplation.
“Gao Qiang is a very complex person…”
An Xin began to recount his encounters with Gao Qiang, starting from their first meeting and how he helped Gao Qiang resolve his conflict with the Tang brothers in the market.
He described his impression of Gao Qiang.
There were both good and bad sides to him.
“Therefore, even now, Gao Qiang still retains a glimmer of his original intentions.”
After An Xin finished speaking, Gao Yu Liang summarized.
An Xin was stunned for a moment, then finally nodded.
Gao Yu Liang smiled: “So, let us analyze Gao Qiang’s possible next move.”
“His current situation is, to put it mildly, miserable.”
“His younger brother, Gao Qi Sheng, is in prison, his younger sister, Gao Qi Lan, is missing, and the Tang brothers are either dead or imprisoned.”
“Now, he has sent his wife and child abroad.”
“Tell me, what do you think he’s planning to do?”
Qi Tong Wei frowned: “He’s going to die with everyone else?”
Gao Yu Liang laughed at this, shaking his head. It was indeed in line with Qi Tong Wei’s personality.
An Xin, however, was suddenly stunned.
Then, a complex gleam flashed in his eyes,
“Secretary Gao, do you mean Gao Qiang is likely to surrender himself?”
Gao Yu Liang praised: “You are still an old friend, An Xin, you know Gao Qiang very well.”
“He has no attachments now, and he understands the evil he has committed over the years. So, with his despair, this is the only path left for him.”
“However, the possibility of him taking everyone down with him cannot be ruled out.”
“But the person Gao Qiang wants to bring down with him will definitely not be us.”
Gao Yu Liang paused here.
He looked at An Xin and Qi Tong Wei.
They both froze for a moment.
Then, they suddenly remembered something!!
Their eyes lit up!!
“Zhao Li Dong?!”
An Xin and Qi Tong Wei immediately thought of the Tang Xiao Long case.
Immediately.
They spoke in unison.
Gao Yu Liang nodded with a smile, confirming their inference!!
