The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

The two guessed correctly.

These people are indeed avoiding them.

Of course, it doesn't mean that he only hid from Song Yaozong and Liu Rumei.

They're all hiding from each other now.

Although Zou Mingyi has been taken away for investigation, other relevant personnel have not been dealt with.

It wasn't just Song Yaozong and Liu Rumei; many more people have been living in fear lately.

In the county public security bureau alone, in addition to Lin Hu, two deputy directors were removed from their posts.

The political upheaval in Zhulin County is far from over.

"Brother Zong, about your relationship with Qin Chuan... do you have time to invite him to dinner?"

Liu Rumei was different from the others.

Although she had her own troubles, compared to Song Yaozong and Dou Sihai, she was just a nobody.

At worst, Liu Rumei could abandon everything and go to Xing'an City.

Although he lost his family fortune, at least he didn't have to go to jail.

Invite Qin Chuan to dinner?

To be honest, although Song Yaozong was rampant in Zhulin County, there was no major direct conflict between him and Qin Chuan.

A month ago, he was threatened by Qin Chuan with that secret and sent to the detention center.

At that time, although Song Yaozong had no choice, he did support Qin Chuan, who had just taken office as the deputy captain of the criminal investigation team, to a certain extent.

Song Yaozong thought for a moment: "I'll call Qin Chuan and give it a try..."

Criminal Investigation Division.

Zhang Jun has reported for duty and is currently in Qin Chuan's office.

"Captain Qin, thank you so much, I..."

Zhang Jun's gratitude towards Qin Chuan was beyond words.

Having lived in Zhulin County for so many years, he knows this place all too well.

Just because you're capable doesn't mean you can get the job.

In Zhulin County, you need others to say you're capable.

If I say you can do it, you can, even if you can't.

I'm telling you, you can't do it, even if you can!

Zhang Jun believed that as long as Qin Chuan spread the word that he wanted to select a captain for a criminal police squadron, the police stations in the dozen or so townships below would be scrambling to get the position, let alone deputy directors.

"Brother Zhang, we're being too polite. At Xinhai Coal Mine, we're all risking our lives."

"There aren't many cases in the brigade these days, so you can get to know everyone better."

"Don't feel pressured. If you have any questions, just let me know. Let's get together with Wang Suo tomorrow night."

Although Qin Chuan did not stay in Changning Town for very long, this was his whole life.

In his previous life, he worked with Wang Xuebing, Zhang Jun, and others for ten years.

Over the past ten years, Qin Chuan has received a lot of care from everyone.

Wherever Qin Chuan goes, he will never forget them.

Buzz!

Just then, the phone rang, and Qin Chuan looked at it...

Song Yaozong?

Why would this scum call me?

Qin Chuan felt no pity for Song Yaozong.

Qin Chuan used the Eye of Sin on him during their first meeting.

Song Yaozong's sin value is 207.

He is suspected of multiple crimes, including intentional homicide, imprisonment and assault, kidnapping and extortion, trafficking in women, rape and gang rape, and drug manufacturing and trafficking!

Such scum should be killed to rid society of this scourge.

"Team Qin!"

On the phone, Song Yaozong's voice was no longer arrogant; it was respectful, and Zhang Jun could hear it clearly through the receiver.

"Who are you?"

Qin Chuan knew, of course, that this was Song Yaozong, but he pretended not to know and asked casually.

"Haha, Captain Qin, you must have a bad memory. It's me, Song Yaozong, Little Song."

Song Yaozong?

Xiao Song?

Zhang Jun was slightly taken aback.

Song Yaozong and Zhang Jun from Zhulin County had certainly heard of it.

He was a local tyrant in Zhulin County, a figure even the county magistrate and county party secretary had to give him some face.

When he called Qin Chuan, he actually called himself... Xiao Song?

Has the world really changed?

"What's wrong with you? Didn't you get enough food in the detention center? Want to go back and stay for a couple more days?"

"Hey, speaking of which, I'm calling Captain Qin today to thank him for giving me a chance to start over."

Song Yaozong naturally understood the teasing tone in Qin Chuan's words.

However, the Qin Chuan of today is not the same Qin Chuan who was arrested and imprisoned just over twenty days ago.

This is a figure who can stir up a storm in Zhulin County.

When asked about the claim that Qin Chuan had powerful backers, Song Yaozong simply made it up on the spot.

If I get caught up in this mess and there's no explanation, what will people in the underworld think of me?

But now it seems that they really do have powerful backers.

Moreover, he is definitely not an ordinary person.

Otherwise, how could they have eliminated Dou Sihai, captured Gao Qingshan, and now taken down the Zou Minghua and Zou Mingyi brothers?

However, Song Yaozong didn't know who was behind Qin Chuan.

Not only did he not know, but he also specifically asked his second uncle, Song Changfeng, who also couldn't find out.

Given Song Changfeng's status and influence, one can only imagine how formidable this person must be, as no one can trace his background.

"During the past ten days or so, I have devoted myself to reform and turned over a new leaf. That's why I wanted to express my gratitude to Captain Qin..."

Liu Rumei leaned against Song Yaozong, constantly giving him meaningful glances.

A pair of small hands roamed around Song Yaozong's body.

"Liu Rumei, the owner of Jixiang KTV, and I would like to invite you to dinner. I wonder if it would be convenient for you, Captain Qin?"

Upon hearing Song Yaozong finally talk about her, Liu Rumei gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

As for Liu Rumei, although she had a background in Xing'an City, it was actually just a facade.

If he were still favored, how could he possibly leave Xing'an City and go to the godforsaken place of Zhulin County to make a living?

However, due to some special reasons, he was able to help the business in Xing'an City, which is why he was able to live such a comfortable life.

But in reality, it was like walking on thin ice.

In the past, Liu Rumei managed to manage everyone in Zhulin County very well, thanks to the resources she had.

They get respect from the legitimate world and no one in the underworld causes them trouble, so they naturally live a comfortable life.

But not anymore.

Her old network of contacts has been almost completely wiped out in the past few days.

To continue living a good life, one must reorganize their network of relationships.

In Zhulin County now, even a fool can see who the real king and queen are.

Qin Chuan smiled, not expecting that Song Yaozong had called him to ask for a meal.

And there's also Liu Rumei from Jixiang KTV.

"I don't have time this week, how about this... call me next Monday."

After saying that, Qin Chuan hung up the phone.

"Captain Qin..."

Sitting across from him, Zhang Jun swallowed hard: "Was that Brother Zong who just called you?"

Qin Chuan sneered.

"What a load of bull, Brother Zong. He's just a gangster."

In Qin Chuan's eyes, Song Yaozong was indeed a gangster.
