Chapter 828 Minister Qin
s well aware that there were issues in this school, but such practices were common across the board and impossible to address seriously without causing trouble for himself. If he genuinely investigate...Chapter 828 Minister Qin
What if I take charge personally
He Yan's words were like a thunderbolt, resounding in Li Huazhong's ears!
If he had checked the almanac before leaving his house today, this short and fat vice-provincial would never have chosen today to make any moves. Seeing one powerful official after another appear before him, Li Huazhong felt like he was going crazy. What kind of day was it today that even a big shot like He Yan had appeared
Li Huazhong could never have imagined that the youngest ministerial-level cadre in Chinese history was standing right in front of him! Although he himself was also a vice-provincial, only one rank away from deputy-ministerial level, it was something many people couldn't achieve even in their entire lifetimes!
The most complex place in China was the officialdom. If you didn't have connections, it was entirely possible to spend your whole life as a clerk or functionary at a grassroots unit. For He Yan to become a deputy-ministerial cadre so young showed just how deep his background was!
Li Huazhong knew that He Yan was also the descendant of a marshal and the prestigious Southeast He Family, which wasn't something a mere vice-provincial with not too many powerful connections could afford to provoke. Even though he had already leaned on the Su family, needing to grasp this chance to perform well, the situation was stronger than him. In such circumstances, there was nothing at all he could do.
A higher rank would suppress a person; let alone that the other party was He Yan!
"Well Have you made up your mind yet, Vice-Provincial Li Can I take them away If this matter is handled by State Security, what else are you worried about Or do you not trust me"
What He Yan said was indeed quite scathing, like a heavy weight pressing down, leaving Li Huazhong unable to refute it.
"No no no!" Li Huazhong shook his head vigorously, "Director He, how could I possibly doubt you Even if I had doubts, I wouldn't dare express them to you."
He Yan smiled slightly but his voice suddenly turned cold as he said, "Listen carefully. In fact, I don't want to hide this from you. You've actually been played by someone in this matter. If you persist in opposing it, you will indeed affect the joint plan between the State Security Department and the Public Security Bureau."
"What Me being played Joint plan between the State Security Department and the Public Security Bureau" Li Huazhong was surprised, raising his eyebrows. Indeed, when he first heard this statement, his immediate reaction was that He Yan was lying to him.
"Why would I lie to you In fact, it's about a case being handled by the Public Security Bureau in Nanjiang, but because of your independent actions, you've misunderstood the nature of the investigation. Although there won't be any accountability for this incident, it will have some negative impact on you."
Li Huazhong understood that He Yan's high status made it absolutely unnecessary for him to lie, yet he found himself more confused by the situation. What was going on Just a moment ago, wasn't the State Security Department supposed to take over the case How did it suddenly become such an important joint investigation between departments, and how could it affect his future
He Yan patted Li Huazhong's shoulder: "You were only ordered to arrest them. But do you know why these people didn't reveal their identities And do you know who is standing opposite you"
This short and fat Deputy Director, in fact, was obsessed with his official position, believing nothing was more important than it. He wanted to seize the opportunity to make a good impression on Su Tianran, but upon hearing that this might affect his career prospects from He Yan, he became immediately anxious.
Following He Yan's gaze, Deputy Director Li saw only an ordinary-looking man in his thirties standing tall and slender opposite him.
"Who is he" Deputy Director Li asked, instinctively sensing something amiss.
He Yi smiled and said a name that Li Hua Zhong never would have imagined!
"This new Chief of the Public Security Department's Criminal Investigation Bureau is Qin Changqing."
It was actually Qin Changqing! This name was too well-known to Deputy Director Li.
The police force isn't that big, especially for those who have reached a position like a director. They would hear more high-level news. It was rumored that this Qin Changqing had an extremely powerful background, spanning both the military and the police forces. That's why he could become the Chief of the Public Security Department's Criminal Investigation Bureau at such a young age.
This was simply an unbelievably miraculous pace! If things continued like this, it might even break the record He Yi set for being the youngest deputy-minister level official in China!
Although Li Hua Zhong was at the deputy-director level and Qin Changqing was at the director level, to Li Hua Zhong's eyes, the gap between them seemed like a chasm. Even if he exhausted all his strength for life, he couldn't catch up with this man who was over twenty years younger than him!
Li Hua Zhong had seen Qin Changqing’s photo before. Now, the more he looked at him, the more he saw similarities to the person in the photo, and all his doubts vanished. He regretted it intensely. But this man with an unlimited future was someone whom just now, Li Hua Zhong pointed at and called a spy, criminal, and traitor! Li Hua Zhong wanted to cry!
At this moment, Yang Fei also came forward and said, "Director Qin, it’s been a long time. I didn’t expect it would really be you."
Yang Fei had just now been focused on Wang Zheng and Li Minghao, completely failing to notice Qin Changqing! Speaking of which, Yang Fei and Qin Changqing used to be classmates in a leadership training program. In such a short amount of time, the other party had gone from being an ordinary criminal police captain to becoming the head of the ministry’s Criminal Investigation Department, with his rank now several levels higher than Yang's.
But what Yang Fei never expected was for Qin Changqing to actually be here. Why would this promising new star in law enforcement come here
This didn't make sense at all, but right now even the head of state security and Qin Changqing were already standing there. No matter how many questions Yang Fei had, he couldn’t say anything either. China was a place where officials held power; department-level cadres like him could not interject in any way.
Qin Changqing smiled slightly and greeted him: "Yang Fei, I never expected to meet you here! This is quite the coincidence!"
There was no doubt that Yang Fei’s words confirmed Qin Changqing's identity, causing Deputy Director Li’s face to look even more dispirited. He could only feel depressed right now. Today had to be the most miserable and unlucky day in his entire life.
He Yan smiled again and said: "Director Li, actually there are a lot of things that I can’t tell you."
Li Huazhong nodded absentmindedly; he hadn't yet recovered from the shock earlier.
"Since Director Qin is here now, if you have any questions in the future, you could ask him to explain. But for right now, we can’t clarify anything and hope that you understand. I can also tell you with certainty that this deceased person was a major suspect in the murder case earlier. That’s all I can say."e daughter, Su Huixin was still part of the Su family. Moreover, this girl wasn't bad-looking either; back then, she was one of those rare beauties with countless promising young men vying to marry he...
