I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week - Chapter 2194

Chapter 2194: Chapter 2195: Power Comes from the Barrel of a Gun

“You’re here, good, you can help me with something.”

He Jiaxing welcomed Lin Yi to the sofa and even brewed him a pot of tea, showing no signs of treating him as an outsider.

“How far has the investigation progressed? Have you encountered any difficulties?”

“Under normal circumstances, Qi Yongchun and the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce would have been subjected to a thorough investigation, but the matter has been suppressed. To what extent the investigation will go, I’m not sure.”

“Given the crimes committed by Qi Yongchun, he should have been sentenced to at least twenty years.”

“Normally, he would be, but it’s unlikely.” He Jiaxing forced a smile, “As for why, I’d rather not say.”

“That’s pretty bold, to even suppress this matter.”

“So, our situation is very awkward,” He Jiaxing added with a bitter laugh.

“Normally, not only Huang Sihai and his twelve, but the entire Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce should be investigated. But now, even handling Huang Sihai and his group might be impossible, they might just be released after a few days.”

“But in the Permanent Village case, they were the buyers; this absolutely must be judged.”

“There’s no concrete evidence.”

“I have it here,” Lin Yi said.

“The suspect Liu Desheng had a notebook with all twelve of their names recorded. That’s one piece of evidence.”

“But the evidence isn’t sufficient, they can claim it’s defamation, or even that it’s a person with the same name.”

“That’s easy, bring in Liu Huasheng and the evidence will be even more substantial.”

“That’s no longer possible, I just received news, Liu Huasheng is dead.”

“Dead!” Lin Yi’s hand trembled with the teacup, “Who did it?”

He Jiaxing smiled meaningfully, “Suicide, but do you believe that?”

Lin Yi also laughed, “Looking at it this way, the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce are the instigators of everything.”

“That’s one way to put it, but this giant rock, we can’t move,” He Jiaxing stated.

“Plus, of those caught, only the six including Huang Sihai were apprehended. The other six were on business trips and haven’t returned yet, I suspect they won’t come back at this critical juncture. They are like dead pigs not afraid of boiling water; there’s no way to handle them.”

“It seems things are a bit more troublesome than I thought.”

“Because it involves so much, including Shanwei’s underground forces, it’s very complicated.”

“Shanwei’s underground forces?”

“I estimate you know a bit, people there are bold and fearless. Despite the small size of the place, their influence is not minor,” He Jiaxing explained.

“The leader of Guangdong Province’s underground forces, named Zhang Jiahao, originated from Shanwei, and the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce has very close ties with him. Thus, I suspect, Liu Huasheng was likely killed by someone he arranged.”

“Liu Huasheng was already arrested, yet he still managed to silently kill him; quite capable indeed.”

“So, this matter is like pulling one hair and moving the whole body; it needs to be addressed bit by bit.”

“I understand, let’s start with Huang Sihai,” Lin Yi nodded gravely, and asked:

“Uncle He, do you know where those six people were sent on a business trip?”

“I only know the specific cities, but not the detailed info; their company didn’t say.”

“Wow, that kind of deserves a beating.”

He Jiaxing’s expression changed, “We can’t use forceful methods; creating chaos will make things worse.”

“We’ve reached this point, there’s no other way.”

Lin Yi took a sip of tea and said:

“An old saying goes, ‘Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.’ When things progress to a certain stage, milder methods won’t solve the problem.”

Initially, He Jiaxing was somewhat unsure about Lin Yi and used to probe him when speaking.

Now there was no need to probe.

“But still, it might be better to consult Elder Lu.”

“No need, his approval for me to come here implies I’m authorized to handle this situation autonomously; Uncle He, don’t worry, I’ll take responsibility.”

After pondering for a few seconds, He Jiaxing said:

“Okay, wait here, I’ll get their information for you.”

“Alright.”

He Jiaxing picked up his phone, dialed his secretary, and delegated the task,

“That’s about it for the matters at hand. What are you thinking?”

“Proceed with the normal investigative process,” Lin Yi stated.

“But you shouldn’t get involved. It would be bad to draw unwanted attention; I’ll handle this.”

“That won’t do, we need to do this together,” He Jiaxing insisted.

Lin Yi shook his head, refusing,

“I can foresee that, once this is over, there will inevitably be a purification operation, but it won’t be possible to completely deal with those people immediately. If they go for broke, it would be easy for them to drag you down, and that wouldn’t be worth it. Just provide me information and some covert support when necessary.”

“I get your point, but for such a significant matter, I still need to do something; otherwise, I wouldn’t feel right.”

Lin Yi grinned mischievously, “Prepare the celebration drink, and after it’s done, let’s have a good drink together.”

“You rascal.” He Jiaxing laughed, “Then I’ll prepare the fine wine and dishes for you.”

At that moment, He Jiaxing’s secretary walked in and informed him that the information on the remaining six individuals was ready.

Lin Yi received the information, sent it to the group chat of his team, and posted a WeChat message.Update by n0vgo. co

“Xiao Bing, come to Pengcheng. Each of the remaining six should take responsibility for one person, capture all the six persons from the information.”

Lin Yi soon received a response; the efficiency of his group was unquestionable.

“How is it over at the detention center, can I still get in?”

“Yes, it shouldn’t be a problem,” He Jiaxing replied,

“You are a police officer from Zhong Hai, and since the case involving Sunjiu Village is not closed yet, you are entitled to go in.”

“As long as I can meet with Huang Sihai and his group, there shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Going there isn’t an issue, but I need to warn you beforehand,” He Jiaxing said,

“They are quite comfortable inside. Hold your temper and don’t be provoked by them. If you can’t resist getting physical, we’ll have an even harder time dealing with the case.”

“They even arranged this; the influence of the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce really isn’t ordinary.”

“Isn’t that the truth,” He Jiaxing sighed deeply, his expression somewhat sorrowful,

“Pengcheng, in this regard, might be more peculiar than Zhong Hai, much like ancient feudal lords. Many things aren’t simply about reason.”

Lin Yi laughed, “Seeing this, I now understand why Elder Lu assigned you here.”

“For many years, in my heart, the teacher has always been a paragon of devotion to the country,” He Jiaxing reflected mournfully,

“He’s had it tough.”
