"Director Zuo, Assistant Lin has been invited by the Longmen Business Federation to attend a charity dinner."

Chulov responded immediately. In the entire Guard Bureau, only Old Safra was the most well-informed about the news.

Zuo Lengshan frowned slightly and said nothing more. It was obvious that he was no longer surprised by this.

"Then let's not wait for him. Let's talk about this case."

Lin Xiaotian spoke first: "Director, Xiaojiu said that Inspector Chen is ready to report. You should have seen them outside when you came in just now."

Zuo Lengshan nodded and said, "Then let them come in."

Chen Huijie followed Jiu into the house, saluted crisply, and began to report.

"After investigation, Daxin Xinye used false appraisal reports to inflate property valuations, used Zhongyitang to commit online fraud, created credit defaults, and ultimately obtained high-value mortgage loans from banks, forming a closed-loop criminal chain..."

At first, everyone present was a little confused and felt that what Chen Huijie was talking about had nothing to do with the bank robbery.

But within a few minutes, they changed their minds and understood the connection.

Finally, Chen Huijie gave his suggestions passionately.

"We have now identified Liu Yuanshe as the core mastermind behind this systemic financial crime!"

"From arson to destroy assessment evidence to brazen bank robbery and account destruction, this is not only the continuation of the criminal chain, but also a provocation and declaration of war by an organized crime group against Longmen's public safety!"

"Therefore, I request the immediate activation of the Level 2 Martial Law Contingency Plan—blocking all access roads in and out of the city, cutting off inter-district arterial roads, and establishing armed checkpoints..."

Seeing her slamming her hands on the table and roaring like an angry dragon, the people present had different reactions.

As a senior superintendent and Chen Huijie's direct superior, Shang Jiu naturally strongly supports her proposal, otherwise he would not have brought her to attend the highest-level meeting.

Lin Xiaotian raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of admiration and emotion in his eyes.

He is a pragmatist who has risen from the grassroots level through his own merits, and he admires Chen Huijie's radical and daring style.

Haruka Hanyu did not comment on this, but simply conveyed Chen Huijie's performance to Mrs. Wen Yue in detail.

Chu Luofu kept smiling. He would support whoever had the final say.

Zuo Lengshan sighed lightly, feeling disappointed with Chen Huijie's lack of overall perspective.

If she doesn't make any progress in the future, she must not be allowed to take over Brother Wei's job!

Glancing around the conference room, it seemed like no one could stand up and criticize her nonsense...

"Officer Chen is truly young and full of energy. He only cares about the case. No wonder he was promoted to Inspector not long after joining the company."

A slightly frivolous voice came from the door, and Lin Rongzhao, dressed in luxurious clothes, walked in slowly.

"Sorry everyone, there was a little traffic jam on the way, so I didn't make it back in time."

Chen Huijie glared at Lin Rongzhao with dissatisfaction, feeling that there was something else behind his words.

Lin Rongzhao pulled out a chair and sat down, without any intention of giving Chen Huijie any face.

"That's easy to say. Inspector Chen, do you know what impact martial law will have on Longmen?"

"This means that all commercial activities in Longmen will be affected, and the economic losses caused are incalculable!"

Facing such accusations, the unyielding Chen Huijie immediately retorted: "Won't allowing criminals to wreak havoc on Longmen have a negative impact on the economy?"

"Of course I will. What do you think our Guard Bureau does?"

Lin Rongzhao knocked the table hard and sneered, questioning Chen Huijie's work ability.

"Who here hasn't handled a major case? If everyone was like you, calling for martial law at every turn, Longmen would have long since been renamed the Mobile Prison! Besides, martial law requires the personal order of Governor Wei, not a mere inspector like you to presume to make such a comment."

"you--!"

Chen Huijie glared angrily, his dragon tail stretched straight with anger.

"Alright, now's not the time to argue," Zuo Lengshan's voice chimed in. "Inspector Chen, please respect your superiors... Also, do you have solid evidence to support the suspicions you just expressed?"

Chen Huijie pursed her lips and replied unwillingly: "Not yet, but!"

Zuo Lengshan raised his hand to stop her, having already made his own judgment in his mind.

However, it would be a bit embarrassing to reject her directly like that.

Moreover, it has no educational effect on her.

"Then let's vote by a show of hands."

Zuo Lengshan, who always makes decisions without hesitation, rarely shows democracy.

"Those who support Inspector Chen, please raise your left hand. Those who support Assistant Lin, please raise your right hand."

After he finished speaking, he raised his right hand first, his calm gaze fell on the others, waiting for everyone to express their opinions.

Chen Huijie naturally raised his left hand without hesitation, and Shang Jiu followed suit to express his support.

Lin Rongzhao chuckled and raised his right hand, and the remaining three people standing at the top of the police force did the same.

Lin Xiaotian admires Chen Huijie very much, but he has always supported Zuo Lengshan's decisions in the bureau.

Haruka Hanyu is a retainer of Lady Fumitsuki and is loyal to only Lady Fumitsuki.

Chu Luofu is the one who can see the situation most clearly and has never stood on the wrong side over the years.

"Five to one." Zuo Lengshan nodded and said, "The result is obvious."

Chen Huijie trembled all over, feeling Zuo Lengshan's indifference and disregard for her.

She didn't actually need to raise her hand. As a small inspector, she had no right to participate in it.

"Let's discuss what to do." Zuo Lengshan pushed the meeting forward: "Who will speak first?"

Lin Xiaotian immediately took over the conversation. As the deputy director, if he didn't say a few words, no one else would speak at all.

"From a practical point of view, this gang of robbers has very strong overall strength, anti-reconnaissance capabilities and organization. It is very difficult to catch them in a short period of time without causing too much impact."

"To be honest, whether we can catch the person or not is not important. What is important is whether we can recover the money."

Lin Rongzhao didn't know whether he did it on purpose or was just too lazy to go through all the twists and turns, so he simply laid out the tone that everyone had already agreed on in front of Chen Huijie.

"Compared to Longmen's financial stability and economic foundation, a few robbers..."

"You actually think recovering the stolen money is more important than catching the criminal? Absurd! The Longmen police's duty is to bring the criminals to justice, not to be accountants for the Chamber of Commerce!"

The dragon's tail slammed the ground heavily, and Chen Huijie's red eyes pierced Lin Rongzhao like blades, and his voice was filled with suppressed anger.

"Letting the criminals go unpunished is like letting a vicious beast hide in its lair with blood in its mouth. What's the difference? If they dare to rob a bank today, they will dare to slaughter the citizens of Longmen tomorrow!"

Lin Rongzhao's lips curled up slightly, and he knew that this little dragon couldn't resist the teasing.

Chen Huijie was so angry that he suddenly pulled out the long sword from his waist and nailed it to the conference table. Cracks exploded between the wood grain like spider webs.

"If even the Imperial Guards and law enforcement are bent to money and power, then where is justice? Where is fairness? What's the difference between us and the gangs in the slums?!"

Shang Jiu grabbed Chen Huijie from behind. He really didn't expect her to be so crazy.

Lin Rongzhao was so frightened that he shrank back. He never expected that this crazy girl would draw her sword directly. It seemed like something was going too far.

After all, with her status, what would happen even if she really killed anyone in this room?

It's nothing more than three glasses of wine as punishment, and those who die or are injured will have to accept their bad luck.

Lin Xiaotian's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but think of his youth.

But he does not regret his tolerance, otherwise he would not have come this far.

Haruka Hanyu was still faithfully serving as a broadcasting tool, while the calm Chu Luofu sat in his seat without moving.

Zuo Lengshan's face turned pale. This was the first time someone smashed the table in the conference room in front of him.

I felt even more disappointed with Chen Huijie and realized that she might do something bad next.

"I think Inspector Chen is no longer suitable to continue to be in charge of this case. Why don't you go home and rest for a few days?"

Although the words were said very tactfully, everyone could hear that it meant that she should be suspended from work and go home to reflect on herself.

Chen Huijie's struggling movements suddenly stopped, and she stared at Zuo Lengshan who was sitting in the main seat.

"Recovering the stolen money takes precedence over apprehending the perpetrators... Is this your opinion, or Governor Wei's?"

Facing Chen Huijie's sudden question, Zuo Lengshan replied calmly: "This is what Longmen meant."

At Lin Xiaotian's signal, Shang Jiu pulled the disappointed Chen Huijie out of the meeting room. Before the door closed, the sound of discussion could still be heard from inside.

"Who do you think is more suitable to take charge of this case?"

"Superintendent Liu Yong, he came up from the front lines. He has a broad perspective and knows what's more important."

So, the next morning.

Chen Xiu was lying on the hospital bed, looking at old man Rupert on TV in a daze.

"No, shouldn't Chen Huijie be the speaker at this press conference? Where did this old dog come from?"

Chapter 73 Chen Huijie, I am your sword bearer (3K)

He ate a spoonful of the lean meat porridge that Nurse Filin on his left had blown cool and brought to his mouth, then turned his head and took a bite of the boiled feather beast egg that Nurse Pelo on his right had just peeled.

Chen Xiu listened to Liu Yong's speech and fell into deep thought.

It seems that something new happened last night. Could it be that Lao Wei was afraid that Chen Huijie couldn't handle it?

After all, Chen Huijie had just recently established his image in front of the public, and it would not be a good thing for him to suffer a heavy setback in a short period of time.

But in this kind of thing, isn't it enough to just give her a hand?

He left the shadow guard at hand unused. Did he really intend to watch her step by step out?

Chen Xiu felt that even if Wei Yanwu gave up his status as a prince, he would not be able to achieve much if he did not have a large group of loyal subordinates who followed him to the death.

Maybe he can be a knight with his Chixiao swordsmanship, but that's all.

After wiping his mouth and waving to the two nurses to leave first, Chen Xiu took out the terminal and called Chen Huijie.

In short, first ask what happened before deciding what to do next.

'Sorry, the number you dialed is turned off...'

Chen Xiu suddenly sat up from the bed and found that the situation was more serious than he thought.

As a police officer, Chen Huijie's phone is usually available 24 hours a day unless something unexpected happens.

Could it be that he was locked up because he talked back to Old Wei?

Chen Xiu could foresee that the two would have serious disagreements on how to handle the robbery.

But it is hard to say who is right or wrong. After all, people have to make their own choices between ideals and reality.

So, Chen Xiu simply turned around and called Shi Huaiya.

It's definitely right to ask her at this time.

The little tiger will always be the first to watch the show when the dragon fails.

At the same time, outside Chen Huijie's house.

Shi Huaiya was knocking on the door, and Xingxiong was standing behind her.

"Chen Huijie! Chen Huijie! Open the door quickly! I know you're in there, stop pretending to be dead!"

However, no matter how Shi Huaiya shouted, there was no sound from inside the door, as if they had become discouraged with the outside world.

Shi Huaiya pinched her waist angrily, shook her palm which was a little hurt, and made way for the door.

"Xingxiong, come and give it a try! I think she's determined to be a head-shrinking dragon!"

Looking at Shi Huaiya who was crossing her arms in anger, Xingxiong knocked on the door gently.

"Old Chen, it's me."
