After listening to Zhou Youliang's explanation, Lu Tao was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a while, and was stunned for a while before asking, "Director Zhou, what should I do now?"

Zhou Youliang pondered for a moment, and said with a little hesitation: "Brother Lu, the only way now is for you to go to Secretary Zhou, tell him the original situation last night, and ask him to order the Municipal Public Security Bureau to investigate the case, maybe there is room for redemption." Otherwise, He Ying and Huang Chong would definitely be severely punished. ”

Lu Tao replied without hesitation: "Okay, I will call Secretary Zhou immediately now, report this case to him, and ask him to come forward to clear the grievances of Political Commissar He and Captain Huang." ”

Subsequently, he hung up Zhou Youliang's phone and called Zhou Yihong's mobile phone in a hurry.

After the phone was connected, Zhou Yihong didn't wait for him to speak, and first asked hopefully: "Xiao Tao, did you tell Xiao Ying about coming to my house to play?

"Uncle Huang, I asked her yesterday and she said think about it. But now, even if she says yes, she won't be able to come to you. ”

Zhou Yihong was a little surprised and asked, "Why can't she come?" Is she seriously ill?"

"No, at 10 o'clock this morning, she was locked up by the county public security bureau, and she will be locked up for five days, and she will not be able to come out until next Tuesday. ”

"What? She was confined by the county security bureau? What the hell is going on?"

Lu Tao calmed down, carefully considered the words, and then told Zhou Yihong about the situation that He Ying and others went to O'Neill to catch gambling last night, were besieged by a gang of gangsters on the way, the evidence of the gambling was destroyed, He Ying beat Li Weijun in anger, and Huang Chong had to fire a warning shot but accidentally injured the gangsters.

After Zhou Yihong heard what he said, he immediately realized a few key points, and asked: "Xiao Tao, does that O'Neill Hotel have any official background, and why is it so rampant?"

Lu Tao hurriedly replied: "Yes, as far as I know, Liu Hong, chairman of the board of directors of the O'Neill Hotel, is a well-known underworld leader in Taolin County, and he is called 'Uncle Hong' by people in the underworld; he has a very good relationship with some leaders of the county party committee and government, and he is called a brother and brother to many people in the law enforcement departments, especially with Li Xuzhong, director of the county public security bureau. I heard that in order to ensure that the O'Neill Hotel would not be investigated and punished, Li Xuzhong repeatedly issued a ban at the bureau's meetings, saying that without his permission, no department or person in the county public security bureau could go to O'Neill to arrest prostitutes and gamblers without authorization.

"It is precisely because of Li Xuzhong's ban that the O'Neill Hotel hides dirt and dirt, and the problem of pornography, gambling and drugs is very serious, and it is privately called 'Little Macau' by the people of Taolin, and it has also attracted a large number of gamblers, prostitutes, drug addicts and drug traffickers to open houses here to carry out illegal and criminal activities, and even many gamblers and drug addicts and traffickers from neighboring counties and cities have also been attracted to it, so the business of O'Neill Hotel is particularly good, if you want to stay here, you need to book a day in advance to have a room. It is precisely because of such a deep background and umbrella that Liu Hong is so rampant. ”

Lu Tao originally wanted to tell Huang Hong about the ambiguous relationship between Luo Qiulin, secretary of the county party committee, and Liu Feiyan, Liu Hong's daughter, but after thinking about it, this was just a rumor he had heard, and he couldn't easily talk about it without confirming it; moreover, Zhou Yihong was Luo Qiulin's direct superior, and if he told him this rumor, it would definitely affect his judgment and impression of Luo Qiulin. In case this rumor is false, it will be very unfair to Luo Qiulin, and he will feel guilty in his heart. Therefore, when he reported Liu Hong's relationship and protective umbrella to Zhou Yihong, he did not mention Luo Qiulin......

When Zhou Yihong heard Lu Tao say that Li Xuzhong had ordered his men not to go to the O'Neill Hotel to arrest prostitutes and gamble, he angrily scolded "scum", and then asked: "Xiaoying beat the gambler surnamed Li, do they have any evidence? Didn't they say that the law enforcement recorder was destroyed?"

I also asked Zhou Youliang, deputy director of the county public security bureau, about this. According to him, Liu Feiyan, the general manager of the O'Neill Hotel, provided a surveillance video to the county public security bureau this morning, which was installed in the luxurious suite where Li Weijun and others were gambling.

When Zhou Yihong heard this, he interrupted him again and asked: "Since they have installed a hidden camera in the suite, they should have recorded the gambling scenes of those gamblers, why did you just say that all the evidence of their gambling was destroyed?"

Lu Tao smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Huang, you underestimated the meanness and insidiousness of those people. According to Deputy Director Zhou, the video provided by O'Neill Hotel only shows the footage of Political Commissar He beating Li Weijun, and the rest was deleted by them. ”

Zhou Yihong scolded angrily again: "These lawless bastards are too rampant! Xiao Tao, don't be in a hurry, I'll talk to the person in charge of the Municipal Public Security Bureau right later, and order them to set up an investigation team to thoroughly investigate the truth of this case, and Xiao Ying will be fine." ”

After that, he hung up Lu Tao's phone, pressed the "pager" installed on his desk, called his secretary Feng Antu, and told him to call Ma Yuanchi, vice mayor and director of the Public Security Bureau, and ask him to come to his office immediately.

Half an hour later, Ma Yuanchi hurried to the compound of the Municipal Party Committee, pushed the door and walked into Zhou Yihong's secretary's office under the guidance of Feng Antu, and greeted Zhou Yihong with a smile on his face as soon as he entered the door.

Zhou Yihong nodded at him with a cold face, pointed to a chair opposite the desk with his hand, and said, "You sit down first! Xiao Feng, make tea for Comrade Yuanchi." ”

Ma Yuanchi saw that Zhou Yihong's face was not good, and he was a little uneasy in his heart, so he took the cup of tea handed over by Feng Antu with a forced smile, and after he quietly withdrew, he asked cautiously: "Secretary Zhou, what instructions do you have?"

Zhou Yihong stared at him with a sharp gaze and asked bluntly: "Comrade Yuanchi, there is a place outside the law in Taolin County, which is called the O'Neill International Hotel, which is said to be protected by the county's public security bureau. Do you know about this?"

Ma Yuanchi heard Zhou Yihong suddenly mention the O'Neill Hotel, and said in a stern tone that it was a "place outside the law" protected by the public security organs, the sweat on his face suddenly gushed out, and he replied a little weakly: "Secretary Zhou, I know about this hotel, but I don't know that Li Xuzhong said such things. ”
