Chapter 286 - Lightning Fury (25)
Even though Zheng Yuanshan had just mentioned the matter of Ji Feng being ambushed and killed, everyone was already mentally prepared. They all believed that Zheng Yuanshan"s crazy actions might have been because Ji Feng was ambushed and killed.However, when Zheng Yuanshan mentioned that he had found the suspect, everyone present could not help but be astonished.
Is this true?
This was because more than half a month had already pa.s.sed, and during this process, Zheng Yuanshan had already investigated everything, even doing it himself. According to the inside of the police force, whenever important clues appeared, Zheng Yuanshan would personally comb through them and then personally host the investigation discussion group.
At the same time, Ji Feng had also brazenly brought his subordinates over from Jiang Prefecture. His group of subordinates were like tigers and wolves, and they were not easy to deal with.
However, even with Ji Feng and Zheng Yuanshan working together, they were still unable to find any clues. It was said that they still did not have any clues, and after finding out that they could no longer do so, they started over and over again.
In this half a month"s time, neither Zheng Yuanshan nor Ji Feng had found anything useful. It could be seen that the thugs had already been prepared.But now, Zheng Yuanshan had suddenly said that he had found the suspect. How could this not shock everyone?
Some people couldn"t help but suspect that Zheng Yuanshan was making this up.One had to know that the people Zheng Yuanshan was trying to capture so crazily this time were not simple people. Some of the people he captured were important leaders.h.i.+p positions, even including the bureau chief of a sub-bureau!
This inevitably made people wonder if Zheng Yuanshan was taking advantage of this opportunity to carry out a purge.
It wasn"t impossible!Ji Feng had been attacked, but not a single hair could be found after searching for a long time. Anyone who looked at him now would definitely be feeling incomparably depressed or even humiliated.
No matter what, he couldn"t be killed for nothing, right?
Since he could not find out anything, he might as well use this opportunity to find an excuse and fish up some benefits for himself!
The advantage of this was that it would help the Ji Clan build more men and women in the south and Guangdong. It would help them strengthen the Ji Clan!
According to this line of thinking, what Zheng Yuanshan had done was not hard to understand. After all, everyone knew that he was the spokesperson of the Ji Clan in Nanyue. And looking at what he was doing now, it was just a sign that he was going to place troops in the Ji Clan.A carrot was a pit. Since he was going to put in the troops, he had to get rid of the carrots that had occupied the place first. Only then would he be able to make s.p.a.ce for the Ji Clan"s men …
What a good plan!
If that was really the case, then it was no wonder that the Governor was so furious. He even did not hesitate to convene an emergency standing committee to remove Zheng Yuanshan from his post as the provincial director.
Since the Ji Clan wanted to send troops over, the governor, as the spokesperson of the Wu Clan, was the first one to refuse. That was why he was so eager to be the vanguard and beat Zheng Yuanshan"s head!Of course, no one would say what they were thinking. The problem now was that Zheng Yuanshan was capturing someone randomly and had ended up on the emergency standing committee. The most important thing right now was to deal with Zheng Yuanshan.
Many of those present had the same idea, including the governor of the southern and southern provinces.Therefore, when he heard Zheng Yuanshan"s explanation, he immediately sneered and asked, "So, those people you arrested, are all suspects?"
"That"s right!"
Zheng Yuanshan nodded and said very calmly. He didn"t care what others thought, he was just speaking the truth.
However, when these sounds entered the ears of the others, they couldn"t help but become somewhat ear-piercing."BOOM!"
The Governor suddenly slammed the table, his face dark and angry: "Simply disgraceful! Zheng Yuanshan, I think you don"t even know your surname! Or could it be that in your eyes, all of us here are fools, blind people? "
However, Zheng Yuanshan calmly replied, "I"ve never thought about it this way. Besides, I don"t quite understand what the governor is trying to say!""You don"t understand? "Heh!" The Governor sneered and said: "If that"s the case, then let me ask you. If you want to catch the suspect, then why did you capture so many people? Were those comrades suspects? Could it be that they carried guns and explosives to kill people in the season — to kill other people? "
Zheng Yuanshan shook his head and said, "They are not the actual enforcers, but they are very closely related to this case!"
"How dare you!"
The Governor immediately shouted in a low voice, "Zheng Yuanshan, are you still trying to argue?! Those people you"ve arrested, they belong to different fields, some in the police system, some in the leaders.h.i.+p, and some in different departments. Could it be that they were colluding with each other to harm a single person? Could it be that they want to rebel? "
Hey ~!Immediately, someone laughed out loud.
Indeed, even if the one being attacked was Ji Feng, even if his ident.i.ty wasn"t simple, there still wouldn"t be so many people colluding together. If he wanted to live alone, he would only need to spend money to hire a.s.sa.s.sins or hire mercenaries.
If he wanted something more refined, there would be many ways to deal with it. For example, he could come up with any kind of excuse or framing, and once he got Ji Feng inside, as long as he secretly arranged things, there would be no mistake. Even if the Ji Clan tried to investigate later, they would at most push out a few scapegoats.
Other than this, there were many other methods that could be used. Why would there be a need for so many people to work together?
"What I"m saying is the truth. Anyone who is arrested by the police is involved in this case!" However, Zheng Yuanshan firmly said, "Furthermore …"
"And what?!"
The governor interrupted Zheng Yuanshan and snorted, "Zheng Yuanshan, you really think we are fools … Let me ask you, even if what you say is true, the people you have are all suspects. They colluded and committed the crime. After such a long time, you guys still haven"t found anything? ""I don"t know much about criminal investigation, but I know one thing. The more people there are, the easier it is for mistakes to appear. I know the so-called "more people talking" principle, but you didn"t get anything before. Are you incompetent, or …" The Governor"s expression darkened, "Or are you simply committing heinous acts and wrongly accusing good people?!"
Zheng Yuanshan shook his head and said, "The governor is too serious. I, Zheng Yuanshan, have worked in the police for almost thirty years, and have never relied on my own authority to commit any reckless acts. This time is no exception. Our police actions are based on evidence …"
"You"re still quibbling!"The Governor directly interrupted him and said in a deep voice, "Comrades, the truth is clear now. Zheng Yuanshan is the Head of Department, but he acted without restraint and is no longer fit to be the Head of Department. Therefore, I suggest that we immediately remove Zheng Yuanshan from his post.
The moment he said this, all the members of the standing committee could not help but become serious. They all thought to themselves, "He"s here!"
This was going to be real!
The Governor"s proposal to remove Zheng Yuanshan was a clear attempt to knock Zheng Yuanshan off his horse with a single blow of a stick.
"What about the other comrades?" At this moment, the Head of the Guards spoke."I agree."
"I also agree. For someone like him who dares to act recklessly, he should be taken out of the leaders.h.i.+p position as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be a disaster for the commoners!"
"That"s right. Especially since he is the leader of the police system. He has to choose a stable comrade to take control of the situation. He is responsible to the people of the province …"
For a time, several standing committees voiced their opinions. They accounted for almost half of the standing committee members. If an official vote was taken, these people alone would be enough to eliminate Zheng Yuanshan.
Everyone knew that today was the day when the first line of the Wu Clan and the Ji Clan"s sharp knife had met. If Zheng Yuanshan was exempted, then the Ji Clan"s hand that was extended to the Southern Guangdong would be completely cut off. This would very likely cause a strong reaction from the Ji Clan, and it might even cause a fierce compet.i.tion between the two factions.
It was best not to partic.i.p.ate in a war like this.
At the same time, the secretary of Cantonese city committee, Qian Hongda, frowned secretly. The situation on the standing committee was not looking good. Even if he objected, it seemed that it would be of no use now.
He couldn"t help but shake his head.
In fact, he had secretly searched for Zheng Yuanshan to pa.s.s and asked Zheng Yuanshan what he wanted to do. Zheng Yuanshan only rea.s.sured him, but he did not say much. But now …
"Secretary, I think we can officially vote now …" At this time, the governor wanted to take advantage of this situation and try his best to eliminate Zheng Yuanshan today.
However, at this moment, Zheng Yuanshan said, "Leaders, I believe everything I have done is reasonable and legal. If you leaders have any objections, you can look at the evidence regarding this case first …"
As he spoke, he waved the stack of doc.u.ments in his hands, "I have detailed evidence regarding this case, including the confessions of the suspects and photos of the evidence. Please have a look!"
Instantly, everyone was startled.
Zheng Yuanshan really had proof?
