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

Thinking of this, Zhong Xiaoai narrowed her eyes slightly, then glanced at Lü Liang, who was constantly wiping his sweat, and said calmly.

"What's the shortest route to the airport from here?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Liang's eyes lit up, and he quickly replied.

"You can get on the overpass from here, then turn a corner and go straight to the airport."

"Director Zhong, I will send someone to the airport immediately and make sure Huang Feipeng is brought back."

Zhong Xiaoai nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that this person was not beyond redemption.

She grabbed Lü Liang and continued speaking.

"You should send people to seal off the area now. It's possible that Huang Feipeng is still hiding somewhere, and we haven't found him yet."

Upon hearing this, Lü Liang immediately nodded, wanting to say a few kind words as usual, but seeing Zhong Xiaoai's expression, he awkwardly gave up the idea.

Normally, Zhong Xiaoai should have worked with the Public Security Bureau to seal off the area.

However, she knew that Qi Tongwei, the head of the Public Security Bureau, was very likely Huang Feipeng's man, or at least had a very good relationship with Huang Feipeng.

Therefore, if they cooperate with the police, there is a high possibility that theft by those in charge could occur.

This is something Zhong Xiaoai absolutely will not allow.

Zhong Xiaoai thought for a moment, then suddenly realized what had been wrong.

Huang Feipeng's attitude is too calm. He asked about the time as soon as he came in. Does that mean he has already calculated the evacuation time?

Moreover, of all places, the fire had to be in the archives room, which has the strictest inspections. As far as she knew, this had never happened before since the Anti-Corruption Bureau was established.

But now it has happened, and the fire is out of control.

The time they came out was not long after she had interrogated Huang Feipeng.

Therefore, all of this is very likely a trap that Huang Feipeng had set up long ago.

The purpose was to infiltrate the anti-corruption bureau and send a signal to the people inside, instructing them to start setting fires.

Then they would seize the opportunity to disappear without a trace.

His disappearance could simply be attributed to his death in the fire, allowing him to live a carefree life in other countries.

No one will arrest him, since Huang Feipeng has not yet been convicted.

Moreover, if the turmoil here subsides and the Zhong family falls, he can swagger back here and resume his previous life.

Thinking of this, Zhong Xiaoai felt a surge of hatred. "Well, what a deep scheme!"

If I, Zhong Xiaoai, weren't so knowledgeable and experienced, I might have actually been fooled by you.

However, no matter how much you planned, you never expected that your mole would be the key to this whole affair.

Thinking of this, Zhong Xiaoai stared intently at Lü Liang.

"Director Lü, who's on duty in the archives today?"

"And who else has been in the archives?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Liang narrowed his eyes slightly. Yes, he was getting old, but he wasn't yet at the point where his eyesight was failing.

Yes, he wants a promotion, but he's far from being willing to betray his own people to get one.

Moreover, if this is true, then he, as the deputy director, will bear full responsibility.

At that point, his future career path will be cut off.

He absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen, even though he agreed with Zhong Xiaoai's opinion.

After all, the fire started somewhat inexplicably, and it just so happened to occur at this particular time in the archives room.

You know, the archives are a place with extremely strict inspections, and something like this has never happened before.

Lü Liang immediately understood the meaning behind Zhong Xiaoai's words. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly.

"Director Zhong, I understand what you mean, but I think you can put your doubts aside."

"After all, the moment you arrived at the Anti-Corruption Bureau today, you put the entire bureau into a state of secrecy."

"Nobody even has a cell phone, how can we contact the outside world? Are we communicating through thoughts?"

"Furthermore, everyone in the bureau, from top to bottom, has gone through rigorous testing to get in. They are all trustworthy people, and they've been here for several years now. Do you really think that some people have been preparing to set a fire for years?"

"Director Zhong, back then Huang Feipeng was just a junior staff member in the Science and Technology Bureau, right?"

Zhong Xiaoai frowned slightly upon hearing this.

While Lü Liang's words do have some merit, the argument itself is untenable.

It's possible that Huang Feipeng's men weren't behind this. The situation in Handong is so chaotic that anyone could have orchestrated it.

Lü Liang's statement was merely an attempt to shirk his responsibility, given that the Anti-Corruption Bureau had never encountered such a situation in all its years of operation.

If it was done by an insider, then Lü Liang, the acting director, will have to pay a heavy price.

Normally, Zhong Xiaoai wouldn't mind doing someone a favor at this time.

But that won't work now; this is the most critical time for the Zhong family.

Moreover, Huang Feipeng was a key figure in the rise and fall of the Zhong family.

Moreover, it was quite clear from Zhong Zhengguo's words that the Ye family had joined forces with Duan Yi, which was far more powerful than the alliance between the Zhong family and the Ji family.

The other side has the advantage, and their only chance of winning now lies here. She absolutely cannot let this go wrong.

Therefore, she was determined not to give in on this matter.

Thinking of this, Zhong Xiaoai glared coldly at Lü Liang, then said indifferently.

"Hmph, it seems Director Lü trusts his people a lot, but whether there are any traitors among them, we'll find out in time."

Let time tell.

Upon hearing this, Lü Liang also snorted coldly.

"Since Director Zhong has said so, then I have nothing more to say. We'll see."

"I have something to do, so I'll go take care of it now."

At this point, Lü Liang had completely lost any desire to flatter Zhong Xiaoai.

He now realized that this woman would investigate thoroughly.

What he needs to do now is to find out who it is in advance and then send that person out.

Zhong Xiaoai watched Lü Liang's departing figure, her brows furrowing slightly.

If it weren't for the need to rely on the Anti-Corruption Bureau, she would have started the investigation now, instead of waiting until later.

She knew all too well how destructive an insider could be.

However, in urgent situations, the most important thing now is to find Huang Feipeng.

Where exactly did Huang Feipeng go?

How could they disappear without a trace?

Zhong Xiaoai frowned slightly, then looked at the Anti-Corruption Bureau not far away. Seeing that the fire was not under control at all, she also frowned.

What were these firefighters doing? They arrived when the fire first started, but now that it's getting bigger, they've disappeared.

Wait, firefighters?
