The country entrusted me to buy an aircraft carrier, Hou Liangping, do you dare to investigate?

Ji Changming understood that the other party must be calling about what had just happened.

I looked at my phone with trepidation.

Huang Dinghai's gentle voice came over.

“Chief Prosecutor Ji, I know the situation in Handong is complicated right now, but we must investigate thoroughly before we do anything, and we must pay attention to our methods.”

"Something like charging through an army blockade with sirens blaring would be too reckless."

“Our anti-corruption work cannot be carried out in this way.”

Tell me, isn't what I'm saying reasonable?

Sweat dripped down Ji Changming's forehead. Although he was panicked by the insults directed at him from the people in front of him, he was not as panicked as he was now.

Although the voice on the other end was gentle and the words were not harsh, Ji Changming knew that it was already a serious criticism of their work.

Ji Changming smiled bitterly to himself and hurriedly replied.

"Yes, yes, you're right. This is our fault, and I will definitely give them a good talking-to."

Huang Dingbo's gentle voice continued.

"A good comrade in our revolutionary work is one who can recognize his or her mistakes and correct them."

"Chief Prosecutor Ji, I know a thing or two about the Dafeng Factory project. Don't get angry because of those people in the military, after all, this project is related to them."

"I have already negotiated with them, but, Comrade Changming, the explanation that is due still needs to be given, and it needs to be done as soon as possible. Before serious consequences occur, a choice must be made."

Upon hearing this, Ji Changming immediately straightened up.

"Yes, I understand, don't worry."

Huang Dinghai nodded in satisfaction.

"Okay, that's all for now. I still have some things to take care of."

With that, Huang Dinghai hung up the phone.

Ji Changming stared at the blacked-out screen, clutched his chest, and shakily pulled a medicine bottle from his pocket, taking a few pills.

Only then did he slowly sit down.

This Hou Liangping has really stirred up a hornet's nest.

After a long time, Ji Changming recovered and waited for a long time without receiving any more calls before finally breathing a sigh of relief.

It seems that person blocked it.

Ji Changming's anger flared up instantly, and he picked up his phone to call Hou Liangping.

He gave Hou Liangping a severe dressing-down.

Hou Liangping looked at his phone, then looked up at Huang Feipeng, who was all smiles, and the eager anti-corruption bureau staff.

Hou Liangping instinctively covered the phone, then turned around and whispered.

"Chief Prosecutor, it's really not that I'm being unreasonable, it's just that the situation is critical."

"After all, you wouldn't want something like Ding Yizhen's case to happen again, would you?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Changming almost jumped up. Ding Yizhen's escape was indeed a stain on their Handong Province Anti-Corruption Bureau.

Moreover, if he hadn't stopped Chen Hai, Ding Yizhen might have been caught.

So after this incident, although the people in the anti-corruption bureau didn't say anything, they still pinned the blame on him.

By bringing this up now, isn't Hou Liangping slapping Ji Changming in the face?

Ji Changming was so angry that he laughed instead.

"Really? There's no other way? You think you can just force your way through the army's blockade?"

"Let me tell you, if someone hadn't stopped you, they could have shot you and there would have been nothing they could do about it."

"Hou Liangping, I don't want to hear what you're saying. Get back here right now. If this matter isn't explained clearly, even the Zhong family behind you won't be able to protect you."

After saying that, Ji Changming hung up the phone.

Ji Changming's chest heaved violently. Although he had often suffered mistreatment over the years, he had never felt this way before.

He was scolded like a grandson, and most importantly, he couldn't do anything about Hou Liangping.

Who can blame them when the Zhong family is behind them?

Ji Changming paced around in frustration a few times, then slapped his thigh hard.

It seems I still need to report this matter to Secretary Sha Ruijin.

Although Sha Ruijin had just called, a face-to-face report was still necessary.

The most urgent thing now is to cling to this person's coattails, so that even if someone investigates later, this person can protect you.

With that in mind, Ji Changming tidied his clothes and prepared to head to the provincial party committee compound.

Only then did he realize that his clothes were soaked.

Ji Changming gave a bitter smile.

This time, Hou Liangping really screwed us over.

……

Hou Liangping looked around blankly, staring at the gun barrels pointed at him, inwardly cursing.

What do you mean the Zhong family can't protect me? This kind of thing has happened more than once or twice. As long as the case can be solved, everything will be fine.

Not to mention, Zhong Xiaoai said last time that the person was paying attention to his work, and as long as the case was solved and the person was caught, everything would be fine.

Hou Liangping stared at the darkened screen, inwardly cursing Ji Changming for being a spineless coward.

However, the moment I put my phone down and looked up, the anger in my heart vanished.

There's no way around it; no one can have any more thoughts when a gun is pointed at them.

Unfortunately, this is not the capital city, nor is it within the Zhong family's sphere of influence; otherwise, these people would not dare to treat him like this, no matter how bold they were.

Hou Liangping felt a burning pain in his face when he thought about how confidently he had made promises to Zhong Xiaoai when he first came to Handong.

This operation was a complete failure, and he has no way to deal with Huang Feipeng now.

Although he believed the other party was guilty, he was unable to bring them to justice, which left Hou Liangping feeling extremely frustrated.

Not to mention that at this time, everyone in the anti-corruption bureau was still watching him expectantly.

Everyone probably already knows who called, and at this moment everyone is hoping that Ji Changming can rescue them.

But this was destined to disappoint everyone.

Even he, the director of the anti-corruption bureau, has been suspended from his post. How could Ji Changming possibly care about these people?

However, Hou Liangping dared not tell this to the people in the Anti-Corruption Bureau. Firstly, he knew that his suspension was only temporary, and that his reinstatement was a certainty once the Zhong family exerted their influence.

We'll need their help when we get to work.

Secondly, now that he says he has been suspended from his post, will Huang Feipeng still be kept in check and arrested?

After thinking for a while, Hou Liangping decided to keep the matter quiet, hoping to win over some people's hearts through this incident, while also keeping an eye on Huang Feipeng's every move.

Thinking of this, Hou Liangping gave the anti-corruption bureau staff a reassuring look, then turned around with a slightly aggrieved expression, forcing out a smile.

"Huang Feipeng, you said you'd give me a chance, that you wanted to have dinner with me at Wangbeilou?"

Huang Feipeng looked at Hou Liangping with a smile.

"Yes, Director Hou wasn't willing, so why did he change his mind?"

Hou Liangping's lips twitched slightly, then he spoke slowly.

"I...I've changed my mind..."
