Pan Jihui arrived an hour after Li Shaoyi. The reason he came here was simple: his brother-in-law was in trouble.

His brother-in-law is the captain of the first squadron. He was photographed smoking opium during working hours, and there were also people from the Narcotics Enforcement Administration who testified in person.

"Old Sun, why did you get involved in this mess?"

As Pan Jihui jogged over, he saw Captain Sun from the Narcotics Control Bureau.

"I didn't want to do this. It was your Captain Li who tricked us into thinking there was some lucrative deal, so we came along. But who knew he had reporters lying in wait nearby and took photos of us with your brother-in-law? Especially that photo of your brother-in-law smoking opium. What can we do? This photo will be in the newspapers soon, and we'll definitely arrest the person."

Captain Sun from the Narcotics Control Bureau felt depressed. The call was from the Tax Police Corps, who said that during the tax collection process, they found a batch of unwanted opium, so they were asked to come over and take it away quickly.

How could I bear to hear that? Of course, someone wanted the opium, but because the tax police were here, the owner didn't dare come out to claim it. Once they took it back, the owner would come out immediately and pay them a bribe. This kind of thing happened all the time in the past. Didn't everyone make a living from this?

If you were relying on a salary of five dollars a month and your boss deducted two dollars from you, you would have starved to death long ago.

After listening to Captain Sun's explanation of Li Shaoyi's actions, Pan Jihui knew that he was no match for Li Shaoyi. He was the only child in his wife's family. If the photo were to appear in the newspaper, he would definitely be dismissed.

This is a small matter. The most important thing is that it will definitely implicate myself. If I lose my public office, who in Beiping will know what I do? The thing that is most lacking here is officials.

"Captain Pan, you're here! I was just looking for you. Look, our team leader went out to smoke opium on duty and was spotted by Captain Sun from the Narcotics Squad. There were also reporters nearby. What do you think we should do?"

Li Shaoyi came out of the house with a smile on his face. Seeing Captain Pan and Captain Sun standing and chatting, he trotted over. The smile on his face was absolutely sincere, and you couldn't see any cunning in it, but what he did was extremely treacherous.

"Captain Li, let's be frank. This is my brother-in-law. Can you please let him go?"

Captain Pan is also a smart man. The reporters have not left yet and are still in the house. Once the reporters leave, the photos will probably be spread out. Captain Sun will definitely take the people away, along with the batch of goods. This matter will be difficult to explain. The reason why Li Shaoyi did not do so must be that there must be something to discuss.

"Look, I don't know about this. If I knew he was your brother-in-law, even brothers wouldn't do such a thing. So let me put it this way. Mayor Yuan and I are related, and he doesn't like our Director Chen. If you can tell me something that interests me, we can let this matter of your brother-in-law go. We can help each other and give each other face."

Li Shaoyi's high-sounding words almost scared Captain Pan to death.

Even if you want to become the director, there is no need to make such a big fuss. This is the street, you are talking loudly, and there are other people around.

"Captain Li, I really can't help you with this matter with our director..."

"Reporter Du, didn't your editor-in-chief just call? Hurry back. I'll ask someone to send a car to take you back. Sometimes it's not safe."

When Li Shaoyi heard Captain Pan's words, his expression changed immediately. Captain Pan dared to guarantee that he had never seen such a quick change of expression in his life. He was smiling just now, but in an instant he looked like an iceberg.

Du Fei agreed happily and prepared to get on the jeep next to him. Captain Sun had to follow as well. If Du Fei published the photo in the newspaper, Captain Pan's brother-in-law would have to be in the Christian Bureau. If no one was caught, the responsibility would then fall on the Narcotics Enforcement Bureau.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait, some are discussing, some are discussing..."

Captain Pan knew that Li Shaoyi was serious, unlike others. Others might still want to test him, but there was no need for Li Shaoyi to do so.

"If you have something to discuss, hurry up and talk about it. People from several departments are waiting here. They think our Tax Police Corps is incompetent."

Li Shaoyi was too lazy to bother with this guy. If he wanted to get rid of Director Chen, he had to start from the inside. Captain Pan, as the captain of the Tax Police Corps, must know some of Director Chen's tricks.

"I know Mrs. Chen's identity. She's not some Japanese university student, but a spy from the Inoue Mansion..."

Captain Pan was thinking about all the things about Director Chen in his mind, trying to see which one could catch him in one fell swoop, so as to avoid the situation where he failed to kill him with one blow and instead attacked him back, which would be difficult for him to deal with.

"you sure?"

Wang Zhi had suspected this matter before and told Li Shaoyi about it, but he had no real evidence. If he had real evidence, Wang Zhi would have been able to arrest Director Chen's wife. Director Chen might not have been implicated too much because he did not know people well, but he would definitely lose his position as director.

"I'm sure. Gongsun Hutong is Director Chen's outer residence. Mrs. Chen often goes there. It should be their contact point."

Captain Pan told everything he knew. In addition to protecting his brother-in-law, the most important thing was to protect himself. He weighed it in his mind. Behind Li Shaoyi stood Mayor Yuan. Although Director Chen had considerable influence in Peiping, there was still a certain gap compared to Mayor Yuan. In addition, Li Shaoyi was a man who did not care about food or meat, so he really could not afford to offend him.

"Lao Hu..."

Li Shaoyi waved towards the distance and Hu Dezhu came over immediately.

"Captain Pan, I'll leave your brother-in-law's case here for now. Follow my men over there. If we can catch him red-handed, this matter will be over."

Captain Pan never thought that after he had provided the information, you still wanted me to show up in public, which would put me completely against Director Chen. However, this guy also nodded vigorously, knowing that Li Shaoyi was not someone who was easy to fool.

The base of Inoue Mansion?

As a modern man, Li Shaoyi still knew about the Inoue Mansion spy organization, which had done many unscrupulous things in our country.

I'm going to use you guys to break the deadlock today, get rid of Director Chen, and let Mayor Yuan see my work ability...
