Officialdom: The beautiful leader took me to the top

Li Dong didn't press further. "Uncle Zhang, you need to tell me the situation at the police station, right?"

Uncle Zhang said, "Last month, a batch of equipment was stolen from the mine. It is said that the case value is as high as several million yuan. The equipment was all imported from abroad."

"Moreover, such a large amount of equipment cannot simply be lost; there must be someone colluding with it from the inside."

"I was on the night shift that night and I actually saw a few suspicious people, so I called the police immediately."

"As a result, Dong Shou'an said it was stolen by outsiders, and the police station closed the case without even investigating..."

"Tell me, what's the point of having a police station?"

Li Dong's breathing gradually became heavier, and the doubts in his mind grew bigger and bigger.

He originally thought the mining area was just loosely guarded, but now, after hearing what Uncle Zhang said, it seems that what lies behind Guodong Mining is probably more than just "a mess"!

From top to bottom, inside and out, it seems a complex and intricate network has already been woven!

Li Dong tentatively asked, "Uncle Zhang, haven't you mentioned this to anyone else?"

Uncle Zhang shook his head with a wry smile, his voice full of helplessness, "Who can I talk to?"

“When I talked to the people at the mine, they either pretended not to hear me or advised me to mind my own business.”

"If you tell outsiders, who will believe you? And who would dare to interfere?"

"Dong Shou'an has connections everywhere, and for us ordinary folks, his words are like farts."

“Last time, an old coworker reported to the district that the mine was in arrears with wages and subsidies.”

"The next day, I got into a car accident and broke my leg."

"The mine did pay some compensation, but since it wasn't a work-related injury, they just settled it for ten thousand yuan."

"Because he couldn't work, he was eventually fired from the mine..."

At this point, Uncle Zhang's eyes suddenly glanced across at the other side.

Immediately afterward, as if he had been startled, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Xiao Dong, you should go to work. Uncle Zhang also needs to work, so I won't keep you any longer."

After saying this, Uncle Zhang grabbed his broom and left.

Li Dong turned his head and saw that there was indeed a person standing not far away, behind a tree, with only half of his head showing.

Although he wasn't wearing a security guard uniform, he was just wearing ordinary work clothes.

But Li Dong remembered that he was one of the people who came out of the security room just now.

It's obvious, it's Zhang Biao's man!

Seeing that he had looked over, he turned and left.

Li Dong knew he was being watched.

That's why Uncle Zhang didn't dare to talk to me too much!

Li Dong watched Uncle Zhang's hurried departure, then glanced at the direction where the person behind the tree had disappeared, his hands unconsciously clenching.

The chill in Uncle Zhang's words hadn't dissipated when the spy hiding in the shadows felt like a thorn, making his heart tighten!

Li Dong clearly saw that the waters of Guodong Mining were deeper than he had imagined.

Millions of dollars worth of imported equipment were lost just like that.

Dong Shouan closed the case with a single sentence, without even asking the police station any further questions.

This clearly shows just how deep the water is here!

As for the one-man show that Uncle Zhang just mentioned.

Whose dictatorship is this?

It's obvious that it's not Dong Shouan's.

Dong Shouan, a mere section chief, shouldn't have such great power.

In other words, Dong Shou'an has other people backing him!

Just as Li Dong was lost in thought, his phone suddenly vibrated.

Li Dong picked it up and saw that it was a text message from an unknown number.

The message contained only one sentence: "Don't meddle in other people's business. You can't handle the affairs of Guodong Mining. Be careful of unexpected disasters!"

Threatening text messages, and they even threatened the police!

Whoever sent the message was quite bold.

Unfortunately, these people chose the wrong target!

Li Dong is someone who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. If these people try to reason with him, he might not resort to such radical measures.

But what if these people want to resort to force?

Li Dong chuckled coldly, "Then let's see who has the tougher backbone!"

Putting the matter aside for the time being, Li Dong headed towards the police station at the mine.

Soon, a three-story building came into view.

The exterior walls of the small building are mottled, and thick coal ash has accumulated at the base of the walls.

Even the sign for the "Police Station at the Mine" was covered in a layer of dust, and the edges looked like they had been deliberately rubbed and were badly curled up.

Li Dong pushed open the creaking iron door, and a whiff of air mixed with the smell of smoke and mildew rushed out.

Unlike the coal dust smell in the mining area, this place exudes a depressing and oppressive atmosphere.

Minjin Township is a local police station, and the working environment is not very good.

But it was just a simple place; at least it looked like a proper workplace.

The police station stationed at the mine was completely different; it exuded an air of irregularity from top to bottom.

The police station lobby was lit only by a dim, yellowish incandescent light. On a bench against the wall, two men in security guard uniforms sat askew, heads down, scrolling through their phones.

Hearing the noise, the two glanced up briefly before looking away.

Behind the counter sat a woman.

She was around 30 years old, fairly good-looking, and was on the phone; she appeared to be an auxiliary police officer.

The woman who answered the phone didn't notice Li Dong either.

After the call ended, she realized that a man was standing in front of her.

I looked up and was immediately stunned!

She'd seen plenty of men in police uniforms, but honestly, she'd never seen anyone exude the same aura as Li Dong!

Li Dong is not only young, but also possesses an aura of integrity and uprightness in his eyes and brows.

Paired with this police uniform, he's absolutely a heartthrob.

Even though the woman was in her early 30s, she was still instantly captivated by Li Dong!

The woman was clearly unaware that she had lost her composure until Li Dong spoke for the second time. She quickly realized what had happened, her pretty face slightly flushed, and said, "Excuse me, comrade, which unit are you from? Are you here to handle something?"

Li Dong immediately pulled out his ID and said, "My name is Li Dong. I'm here to report for duty today. I've already spoken to Director Wang."

The woman exclaimed in surprise, quickly covering her mouth and saying, "Ah? You're the new Officer Li Dong?"

Upon hearing this, the two security guards on the bench immediately stood up, hurriedly saluted, their eyes filled with astonishment and panic.

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of unease in each other's eyes.

His previous nonchalant demeanor vanished completely, and he even subconsciously stuffed his phone into his pocket.

Li Dong nodded, "That's right, I'm the new guy, Li Dong!"

The woman then realized her mistake, immediately straightened her casual posture, and forced a sweet smile onto her face.

It wasn't an act; it was real.

Those present were all staff members of the mine's police station, and they already knew that Li Dong was coming to report for duty today.

Director Wang also made a special request, saying that Li Dong had a special status and was a rising star in the Tianzhou police force, and that they should treat him with special care.

However, the woman did not expect Li Dong to be so young and so handsome.

As she took the documents from Li Dong, she unconsciously softened her movements.
