Chapter 70 Strange Feeling
Chapter 70 Strange Feeling
"Director Ye, Director Lu, I believe in my men. There is no way they can be bribed by Han Bin of Hongxing." Wang Xi looked at Ye Guoying and Lu Zhilian with a serious expression.
Just a week ago, two investigation directors of ICAC, Ye Guoying and Lu Zhilian, each brought their own team members to the Marine Police Headquarters and found Wang Xi.
They said they received a report that his subordinate, Inspector Chen Jianwen, who was in charge of patrolling and anti-smuggling, had a connection with Han Bin of Hongxing.
The ICAC, which received the news, certainly did not dare to neglect it. As the matter involved the Marine Police and Han Bin, one of the leaders of Hung Hing, the ICAC sent Ye Guoying and Lu Zhilian to investigate.
Ye Guoying, ICAC's Director of Investigation, is a woman who is as capable as any man, while Lu Zhilian is ICAC's Assistant Director of Investigation.
"Superintendent Wang." Ye Guoying looked at Wang Xi and said seriously, "Whether Chen Jianwen is okay or not needs to be investigated. It's not like you say it's okay. Our ICAC has received a report and must come to investigate. I hope you can cooperate."
"Yes, I have always cooperated." Wang Xi sneered and said, "I have always cooperated with you. I have even locked up my own men. How can you expect me to cooperate with you?"
To be honest, no one likes the ICAC or the entire police force, including the Marine Police.
After all, just ten years ago, the ICAC arrested many police officers. Although they deserved it at that time, they were all colleagues after all, and they were worried that they would be invited to the ICAC for coffee one day.
"Zhi Lian, how are the preparations going on your side?" Ye Guoying ignored Wang Xi and turned to look at Lu Zhi Lian and asked.
"Sir, everything is ready." Lu Zhilian said with a serious expression.
According to the plan they had made, Chen Jianwen sent a message to Han Bin in his handwriting, asking him to meet tonight.
If Han Bin came, it would prove that Chen Jianwen and Han Bin must have a relationship. Otherwise, how could Han Bin, a regional leader of a community, come here just for a piece of paper that came from nowhere?
Of course, if Han Bin didn't come, it didn't mean that there was nothing wrong between Chen Jianwen and Han Bin. At that time, we still need to continue investigating. In a blink of an eye, it was the agreed time. Lu Zhilian nodded to Ye Guoying, and then left with Fang Zhuowen.
At this time, Wang Xi, who was waiting for news, was also a little nervous. Although he believed that his men were fine, he could not guarantee it.
"Director Lu." Fang Zhuowen looked at Lu Zhilian, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
Although Lu Zhilian is an assistant director, he is also a director.
"What do you want to ask? Go ahead." Lu Zhilian glanced at Fang Zhuowen and said casually.
"Director Lu, I just can't understand why Chen Jianwen can't escape responsibility whether Han Bin comes or not?" Fang Zhuowen said with a confused expression on his face: "If we do this, will it be considered wrongly accusing a good person?"
According to Director Ye Guoying and Deputy Director Lu Zhilian, if Han Bin came, it would be 90% certain that he had an unspeakable relationship with Chen Jianwen.
And if Han Bin didn't come, Chen Jianwen would have some doubts. This... Fang Zhuowen was a little confused.
“If Han Bin didn’t come, it’s probably because we delivered the message in the wrong way, which alerted Han Bin, so he didn’t come.
Why is he alert? Isn't it because of the relationship between Chen Jianwen and him?" Lu Zhilian said with a serious expression.
If Han Bin comes, it goes without saying that Chen Jianwen must have a problem. During this period, the ICAC has interrogated Chen Jianwen, but he said nothing and insisted that he was innocent and was framed.
"Then, what should Han Bin do to clear Chen Jianwen of suspicion?" Fang Zhuowen didn't understand.
"Let's make an assumption. Let's assume that Han Bin and Chen Jianwen have no relationship and are strangers. At this time, Han Bin, as the regional leader of the Hongxing Society, suddenly received a message from a stranger asking him to meet somewhere. What do you think he should do?
Or he could ignore the news, but the possibility of this is infinitely close to zero, after all, everyone is curious. Under the influence of curiosity, he wants to know who this person is, but he can't ask someone out just because someone passes him a message, it's impossible. "
Not to mention the gang leader, even an ordinary person would not be asked out so easily. What if this was a trap set by an enemy? After all, gang members have a lot of enemies.
"At this time, Han Bin will most likely send his men to check it out. If necessary, he will show up in person. If not necessary, he will take the person who delivered the message back. Once he returns to his own territory, Han Bin will show up without any scruples." Lu Zhilian said slowly.
"However, these are just speculations by Director Ye and I. In fact, there may be accidents, or even Chen Jianwen may be wrongly accused. These are all possible."
No one can guarantee that the other party will do what they want. Maybe Chen Jianwen and Han Bin really have no relationship, but Han Bin came anyway. This is all possible.
"But Zhuo Wen, you have to remember that ICAC is the last line of defense in Hong Kong. We have a zero-tolerance attitude towards corruption and bribery. Do you understand?"
The corrupt officials in the police force have just been cleared out, so we must not be lenient. We would rather kill the wrong person than let him go.
The ICAC has made some wrongful killings over the years, but for the prosperity of Hong Kong and the integrity of the police force, it is all worth it.
"Yes, Director Lu."
In the blink of an eye, it was time for the agreed meeting.
"Director, it's been twenty minutes since the agreed time and Han Bin hasn't come yet." Fang Zhuowen whispered to Lu Zhilian next to him.
"I'm already here." Lu Zhilian shook his head and then said, "Okay, let's go."
Having said that, Lu Zhilian stood up, turned around and left the teahouse.
"Coming?" Fang Zhuowen followed Lu Zhilian away in confusion.
"That's right, although Han Bin didn't come, he sent his men over." Lu Zhilian said with a calm expression.
"So, Chen Jianwen is fine now?" Fang Zhuowen's expression immediately lit up with joy when he heard that.
He had just joined the ICAC, and he also understood what Director Lu had said just now, that it was better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go. However, in his heart, he still didn't like to wrongly accuse others. Now everything was going according to their plan, and Chen Jianwen must have nothing to do with it.
"It's okay, you can release him when you go back." Lu Zhilian nodded.
However, he didn't know why, but he always had a strange feeling in his heart. But now he had no reason.
We can't just say that Han Bin can't come, and can't not come, and can't have his subordinates come. If that were the case, the ICAC would have lost all its reputation.
It’s like two people are guessing a coin, if they guess heads and flowers, respectively, then is it wrong to guess vertically as well?
