Chapter 1289: Break into the City State Security Bureau?
Outside of the building.
Cars were driving in and out of the compound.
Staff, on their way to work, greeted each other.
The partic.i.p.ants for the meeting chatted as they entered the Bureau.
Dong Xuebing kept his injured left hand in his pocket and looked at the office building and the staff on their way to work. At a football match, he met w.a.n.g Shen’s current wife, Xu Yan (same p.r.o.nunciation as Xu Yan). But he had not met w.a.n.g Shen before. He does not know what he looks like. He should not be among the crowd. He is the head of a department in the City Bureau and should have arrived early to prepare for the meeting. He might be in his office now.
Tan Limei looked at Dong Xuebing as she chatted with her colleague. She was worried.
“Xiao Tan? Director Tan?”
“Ah? I am here, Chief Zhen.”
“I know you are here. What are you looking at?”
“Huh? Nothing…”
Zhen Guoan looked towards where she was looking and was surprised. “Eh? Is that man Xiao Dong?”
Tan Limei had to reply. “I think so. I don’t know.”
“Xiao Dong?” A leader from State Security Western Branch exclaimed. “Chief Xiao Dong?”
The person beside him s.h.i.+vered and looked towards the main gates.
Dong Xuebing. After over two years, Beijing City State Security Western Branch staff still remember this name.
It is Chief Xiao Dong.
d.a.m.n! Why is the G.o.d of Plagues here?
The Beijing City State Security Western Branch leaders were shocked. They exchanged looks and were puzzled as to why Dong Xuebing appeared at the City State Security Bureau. He left the State Security and should not be here. Is he here to look for someone? But outsiders are not allowed to enter. The security is tight, and anyone who enters must show their work pa.s.s.
Zhen Anguo frowned and looked at Tan Limei. “When did he come back?”
“Huh? I don’t know. We have not kept in touch for some time.” Tan Limei lied.
Zhen Anguo kept quiet. Dong Xuebing and him were on bad terms. However, he tried to stop Dong Xuebing from getting promoted and transferring away because he needed help. This made their relations.h.i.+p worse. Both did not contact each other after Dong Xuebing was transferred. Zhen Anguo had complicated feelings. He knew Dong Xuebing was transferred to a County as the Executive County Mayor and held the same rank as him. Dong Xuebing’s power is much higher, and he has better prospects than him.
One was a leader, and the other was a Staff Member two years ago.
Two years later, Zhen Anguo is still in the same position, and Dong Xuebing is on par with him.
Others might not know about Dong Xuebing’s current position, but they know he should be promoted several times. He could solve any problem when he was with Western Branch and appeared on TV to save countless lives during the earthquake. His appearance attracted all the leaders from the Western Branch.
Other than them, Dong Xuebing also attracted a few people.
The guards.
The City State Security Bureau Guards.
The few guards noticed Dong Xuebing when he stood outside of the entrance. They had not met him before. A few staff, who were on their way to work, glanced at him for standing outside.
“Who are you?” A guard from the side gate looked at Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing ignored him and continued to look at the people there.
The guard frowned. “Do you have an entry permit or a work pa.s.s?”
Dong Xuebing glanced at the guard from the corner of his eye. “I got no work pa.s.s and entry permit.”
“Heh…” The guard was amused. This guy was talking back to him in his territory. Does he know where he is? He waved Dong Xuebing away. “Stand away from here.” The Bureau address is confidential and cannot allow outsiders to stand at the gate.
Dong Xuebing did not move. “How can I look for someone if I stand away?”
“Who are you looking for?” The guard looked at Dong Xuebing. “Huh?”
Dong Xuebing calmly replied. “I am looking for w.a.n.g Shen. Has he arrived?”
This guy is young and speaks in an arrogant tone. “Why are you looking for Director w.a.n.g?”
Dong Xuebing sneered. “Do I need to tell you why I am looking for him? Call him to come out. I can go in to look for him, too.”
The guard replied coldly. “Sorry, outsiders are not allowed inside.”
A skinny guard added. “Director w.a.n.g has a meeting soon and cannot come to meet you. Come back in the afternoon. We will try to help you contact him.”
Dong Xuebing shrugged his shoulders. “That means you are asking me to go in.”
The guard raised his voice. “You cannot enter! Leave!”
Dong Xuebing ignored the guards and limped towards the gate with one hand in his pocket.
The guards were speechless when they saw Dong Xuebing was injured. This guy thinks too highly of himself. This is the City State Security Bureau. How can you enter to look for someone without a permit or work pa.s.s?
“Stop!”
“Stop there!”
“Who allowed you to enter?”
The two guards rushed forward and blocked Dong Xuebing with their bodies.
Two other guards standing by the main gate frowned as they looked at the commotion.
The commotion attracted many people. Those State Security staff and Leaders turned and looked at Dong Xuebing as if he were an idiot.
Dong Xuebing does not mind. He looked at the guards. “I have some personal matters to settle with w.a.n.g Shen. This has nothing to do with you all. Step aside. I am going in.”
The few guards rolled their eyes.
Do you think we will step aside because you told us to?
Where do you think this place is?
Dong Xuebing can confirm w.a.n.g Shen had arrived from the guard’s reply. He should be in the office building, and Dong Xuebing does not need to wait outside. He does not care about the rules or regulations when he is mad. City State Security Bureau? Who cares?
The guards continued to block Dong Xuebing.
A guard had taken out his baton.
The other guard placed his hand on his gun. But he did not draw it.
More people noticed them and wondered what happened.
Tan Limei took a deep breath and slapped her forehead. I knew this would happen.
That tone…
That expression…
I knew it! Dong Xuebing is here to create trouble.
Why did I tell him the address?
The Western Branch leaders were stunned when Dong Xuebing clashed with the guards.
What is he doing?
Chief Xiao Dong wants to enter.
But this is the City State Security Bureau. How can an outsider enter?
“Chief Zhen, this…”
“What is Xiao Dong doing?”
“I don’t know. Should we…”
Zhen Anguo kept quiet. He does not want to get involved.
Everyone thought Dong Xuebing would not dare to break into the City State Security Bureau by force. Moreover, there’s an important meeting today. Many City Leaders and branch Leaders are around. The guards had stopped him. How is he going to enter? Tan Limei knows he is rash and impulsive, but she does not know his working style after his transfer.
Except for one person.
This person knows Dong Xuebing too well.
Xu Yan! Only Xu Yan knows what Dong Xuebing can do when he is mad.
Xu Yan was speeding towards the City Bureau after receiving Tan Limei’s call. She called Dong Xuebing many times, but he did not answer. She took a deep breath and called w.a.n.g Shen.
Ring… ring… ring…
The line got through.
“h.e.l.lo, what do you want?” w.a.n.g Shen is in his office arranging his doc.u.ment. The meeting is about to start, and he is busy.
Xu Yan asked immediately. “Where are you now?”
w.a.n.g Shen replied impatiently. “Do I need to tell you where I am now? I am busy. I can tell you my answer if you want to discuss what happened last night. Don’t even think of taking away Chaochao! We can go to court! I am not scared of you. You can report me to the police for hitting you! I was drunk! Do whatever you want. We are living peacefully, and you must create trouble for me now and then. You deserve to be hit!”
Xu Yan replied coldly. “I can’t be bothered with you. A subordinate of mine knows I am hurt, and he is on his way to your unit. He might be getting revenge for me. Leave before he gets there.”
w.a.n.g Shen laughed. “What?”
Xu Yan shouted. “I am asking you to leave before it is too late!”
w.a.n.g Shen said. “You want me to hide from your subordinate? Are you mad?”
“w.a.n.g Shen! I am calling you not because I worry for you. I don’t want my friend to be implicated. Your life and death have nothing to do with me. I don’t want my friend to be in trouble because of me. Do you understand? Leave now.”
“I am at my workplace, the City State Security Bureau. Do you know what you are talking about?”
“You don’t know anything. If he is mad, he dares to break in to the City Bureau by force!”
“Break into our City Bureau? Haha… let him come.”
“No one can stop him if he goes there.”
“Is there anything else?”
“It will be too late for you to run if he gets there.”
w.a.n.g Shen hung up the call.
