I sell lunch boxes in the underworld

Chapter 170: Urgent Matters

Qin Yunie called again.

Because this incident was a big one, 200 kilograms of goods were seized, which is a huge amount in the country, especially since it was the latest type of goods.

As the person who called the police, Qin Yunie not only provided the most accurate location, but also reminded them not to report it first, but to report it after the goods were seized, so as to prevent the umbrella from notifying the other party and causing the goods to be transferred. It would take some time to find it again at that time.

Therefore, when the other party reported the name of a big shot, they actually believed it, but because there was no conclusive evidence, even if they knew it was him, they could not arrest him immediately.

Qin Yunie had just hung up the phone when he received a call from the big shot named Li. When his eyes fell on the flashing caller ID on the phone screen, his body suddenly stopped, as if time had frozen at this moment.

After a brief pause, he frowned slightly and his brain began to work rapidly, thinking about how to respond.

After a long while, he took a deep breath, as if he had finally made up his mind, slowly stretched out his finger and pressed the answer button.

As soon as the call was connected, a stern and questioning voice came from the other end of the line: "Why didn't you report to me about tonight's operation? Liu Jiarong, do you want to be the captain anymore?!"

Liu Jiarong quickly said with a mixture of respect and complaint, "Director Li, it's not that I didn't report it. It was simply too urgent! When we received the call, time was running out. If we didn't act immediately, the criminals would have taken advantage of the situation and moved the goods. That's 200 kilograms! If they were allowed to get out, the consequences would be unimaginable. None of us can bear such a heavy responsibility, right? So I made a quick decision and took action immediately."

There was a suffocating silence on the other end of the phone, which lasted for more than ten seconds before the other end said, "Yes, urgency comes first. You're doing the right thing."

Then he asked indirectly, "What's the situation now? Has the main culprit been caught?"

Liu Jiarong's eyes narrowed upon hearing this. He gripped his phone tightly and reported, "The main culprit hasn't been apprehended yet. We've seized 179 kilograms of goods so far, and arrested 37 suspects who were attempting to escape."

But he didn't say that he had just obtained the escape route of a key figure from Qin Yunie.

"Okay, I got it. Come to my office tomorrow morning and give me a detailed report." Director Li said this and hung up the phone.

Liu Jiarong still held the phone tightly in his hand. He never thought that Director Li would be their umbrella of protection. No wonder so many previous missions ended in failure. Either the key person escaped, or the goods had been moved away when they arrived.

It was because they would report to their superiors before every mission. There were a few occasions when they did not report, but most of the time they seized a lot of goods.

However, once such a big mission is carried out, it must be reported before it can be carried out. Therefore, Liu Jiarong thought carefully and realized that after so many missions, there has not been a single perfect capture.

This is already very telling.

The most crucial thing is that Director Li should be sleeping at this time. Since none of them reported it, who told him about tonight's mission?

What a coincidence, Qin Yunie just finished calling him and received a call from Director Li.

Liu Jiarong doesn't believe that there are so many coincidences in this world.

As a result, many things cannot stand up to scrutiny.

On the other side, Pan Tingsheng also received the news that Pan Long had not been caught. His people should have picked him up by now. As long as he escaped, the loss of some goods would be a loss.

However, things did not go as smoothly as he had imagined. Pan Tingsheng received the news that his brother was not caught one second ago, while Pan Long was caught the next second.

By the time Pan Tingsheng found out the next day, it was too late.

The person is already in police station.

Because of this, when Liu Jiarong went to report, Director Li seemed less composed than usual. He seemed a bit impatient and asked directly, "Didn't you say last night that you hadn't caught the main culprit? If you did, why didn't you mention that during your report last night?"

Liu Jiarong said innocently, "We caught him later, and then we were busy cleaning up and reporting back to you. I just got back this morning and didn't even go back to the office before I came to report to you right away."

Director Li was extremely angry, but there was nothing he could do about him. He had been on a mission all night and came to report as soon as he came back.

As for the fact that they did not tell us in advance, the person also explained that he was caught only after the report was made. After that, he was busy finishing the work and reported it immediately after he came back.

All the words choked him, his breath was stuck in his throat, and he walked around the office in circles.

Liu Jiarong saw his anxiety, but pretended not to understand.

Director Li took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, sat down on the chair, and asked, "Tell me, what happened last night?"

Liu Jiarong sat up straight and reported, "A little after 200:52, the duty officer received a call reporting a major crime. After I answered the phone and heard the urgency of the matter, I immediately organized a police force and set off. Upon arrival, we discovered they had actually built a factory specifically for short-term storage of goods. The transport vessel must have been replaced, so nothing else could be seen. So far, we've seized a total of kilograms of goods and arrested suspects. The others will need to be interrogated before I can report back to you."

Director Li frowned and asked, "Isn't it 172 kilograms? How did it become 200 kilograms?"

Liu Jiarong replied: "There are still some in the factory, we seized them as well."

Director Li: “…”

Liu Jiarong deliberately said, "Director Li, if there's nothing else, I'll go and interrogate them and see if I can break through as soon as possible and get some new clues. I have a feeling there must be someone behind them. It would be great if we could get some clues and catch the person behind it."

Hearing this, Director Li froze for a moment, then forced a smile and nodded, "Go ahead."

Pan Tingsheng's words from last night suddenly rang in his ears, "Director Li, if we get caught, you won't be able to escape either. Please rescue my brother!"

And Liu Jiarong's words just now clearly showed his suspicion. If he really found out something during the interrogation...

Although he knew some people had never seen him and didn't know him, there were always traces every time he tipped off Pan Tingsheng. If one of them was not handled properly and was exposed, it would be really over.

Now that you're on this boat, it's not that easy to get off.

Thinking of this, he leaned on the table, thinking quickly about how to get Panlong out.
