Chapter 592: Extraneous Branches
Shi Deping chose Cheng Zhichao, Xu Chengjun had no opinion, and Cheng Zhichao also agreed to carry out this mission. Although the talks went smoothly, Cheng Zhichao could not make the trip immediately, this meeting was just an intention, and the police were still very cautious about seconding undercover personnel from the outside, and the procedures that should be followed were the same. Therefore, Xu Deping decided on the spot to contact the provincial police through the official channels of the Guò police to investigate Cheng Zhichao's background.
Of course, this is just a formality, and everyone knows that Cheng Zhichao is the son of the chief of staff of the Northeast Military Region, and he has lived in the army compound since he was a child, and has received a comprehensive socialist education of loving the party and the country, and has not violated discipline. Such people are generally trustworthy.
But what even Xu Yunfu didn't expect was that among the information transmitted by the police in the provincial capital, there was one item that caused an uproar - although Cheng Zhichao was the son of a high-ranking cadre of the Northeast Military Region, he had a close relationship with the daughter of Fang Yueyuan, one of the bigwigs of the coastal underworld forces, in private, and the two were likely to be a couple.
As soon as this news was delivered to Shi Deping's desk, he was immediately scared into a cold sweat. Lao Tzu is a high-ranking cadre, which does not mean how strong his son's revolutionary will is, among the cases he has handled in previous years, quite a few of them were made by the children of high-ranking cadres. The reason why Cheng Zhichao is an exception is because Cheng Zhichao's appearance on the battlefield is remarkable, and on the other hand, it is because Cheng Zhichao is Lao Jiang's personal disciple. He can't trust others, but he still trusts Lao Jiang.
But he never dreamed that Cheng Zhichao, whom he admired the most, would have such a deep background, and he would hook up with the daughter of the big brother in the underworld.
The provincial city didn't know what he wanted these materials for, so he just briefly introduced the situation. By the way, the relationship between Cheng Zhichao and Fang Xiaochen was mentioned, and the focus was that Fang Yueyuan was now fighting with the original underworld forces in the provincial capital, and his partner was Zheng Huaizhu, another high-ranking cadre in the compound of the Northeast Military Region. Because Zheng Huaizhu's identity is sensitive, and he has some children of provincial officials around him, the police are very cautious. So far, it's just a matter of keeping a close eye on it, so as not to startle the snake.
I can't help but say that the efficiency of the police is really good, and along with the information, there are photos of Fang Xiaochen's father and daughter, as well as certificates issued by the Binhai police, including the handwritten certificate of Wu Zuosheng, deputy director of the police station who handled the incident of Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong fighting in the hospital, which recorded the incident in great detail.
Shi Deping was not calm, he borrowed Cheng Zhichao to be an undercover agent. It is to deal with a larger drug trafficking organization, so far, this drug trafficking organization is already the top priority of their upcoming target, in case Cheng Zhichao's foundation is really as unclean as the legend says, I am afraid it is not appropriate to let him out. Therefore, after receiving this information, Shi Deping immediately took someone to the special brigade secretly again and found Xu Yunfu.
Xu Yunfu wondered why he came to the door again so quickly, but when he finished reading the information provided by Shi Deping with a smile. was so shocked that he was almost hospitalized again, and it was impossible to even call.
In view of the severity of the situation. Xu Yunfu immediately ordered someone to call Cheng Yanming over. After Cheng Yanming read it, he was also stupid on the spot.
Shi Deping sighed and said faintly: "It seems that we have all looked away, no one expected that this kid would hide so deeply." ”
Cheng Yanming shuddered and said with a calm face: "If this information is true." I feel it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive investigation into Cheng Zhichao. If necessary, he can be removed from the third team. ”
"It's too dangerous." Shi Deping fully agrees with Cheng Yanming's suggestion. He is also a veteran scout, and he knows the particularity of the special brigade, and he also knows that it is precisely because of the particularity of the special brigade that the team must be required to maintain absolute purity. If Cheng Zhichao's background is really so complicated. And if he is entangled with the underworld forces, let alone sending him undercover, he can't even stay in the special combat team.
"An investigation is necessary, but it has not yet reached the point where it is necessary to take any measures. In this way, don't alarm Cheng Zhichao first, Xiao Cheng immediately flew to their house, went to meet Lao Jiang, and learned about the situation from him in detail. It would be better if I could meet Chief of Staff Cheng, if it was inconvenient, don't be too reluctant, the most important thing is to meet Fang Xiaochen. ”
Cheng Yanming nodded: "Then I'll go back and prepare, and I'll leave tomorrow." ”
"Go today, buy the fastest plane ticket, give you three days, and the day after tomorrow at the latest, you have to bring back the results of the investigation." Xu Yunfu gave the order without doubt.
Cheng Yanming has always carried out his orders to the letter, saying that he would leave today, Cheng Yanming immediately got up and said goodbye, didn't even clean up, and directly took Xu Yunfu's approval slip to the finance office to receive the funds, and drove away with a driver.
After sending Cheng Yanming away, Xu Yunfu sat on the chair and pondered for a while, then smiled at Shi Deping: "If you don't have anything important over there, you can wait here for two days with me, and then make a decision after the result is available." ”
"Do you want to pay for food?"
"The food fee must be paid, and every meal and dish we have is specially allocated by the Military Commission, and we didn't bring your meal. You can pay as much as you want for the soldiers' food every day. We are old comrades-in-arms, and I will give you a 20% discount. ”
"Thank you, you're so generous." Shi Deping said thank you with a dark face.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Three days later, Cheng Yanming rushed back from the provincial capital. After arriving at the special brigade, he didn't even change his clothes, and was called to the office by Xu Yunfu, who had been waiting anxiously.
"How's that, Shun lì no?"
"It's okay, after I arrived at the place, I made a call to Lao Jiang according to the phone number you provided, and he immediately agreed to meet with me. A veteran is a veteran, and Su zhì is different, after putting down the phone, in less than an hour, I arrived at the guest house. ”
"Tell me what's going on."
According to Lao Jiang, at the earliest, they didn't know the relationship between Cheng Zhichao and Fang Xiaochen. Later, during a summer vacation, Cheng Zhichao went to visit Fang Xiaochen, and he and Zhao Jiyong had a big fight with the local thugs in Binhai, and this matter gradually surfaced. Fang Xiaochen has seen this person, Chief of Staff Cheng and his wife, and Lao Jiang has also seen it. I like this girl a lot. ”
"What? They all like Fang Xiaochen a lot? ”
"Yes, according to Lao Jiang, if Fang Xiaochen was born in troubled times, she would definitely be a strange woman who was not born in the world, she was bold and careful, dared to love and hate, and acted decisively, but she was a little evil, specifically when she could solve problems with her fists. Absolutely not touching the lips. And the relationship with Cheng Zhichao is very good, but the other party Yue Yuan's business is not interested. Although Fang Yueyuan's subordinates have been used several times to do things for themselves, they are basically to help Cheng Zhichao and find a place for him. For example, Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong fought with local gangsters in Binhai, obviously they didn't suffer a loss, but Fang Xiaochen felt that Cheng Zhichao suffered a big loss, and led people to sweep more than a dozen fields of the other party before stopping. ”
"This girl is quite interesting." A smile appeared on both Shi Deping and Xu Yunfu's faces.
Lao Jiang also said that Fang Yueyuan did have the idea of winning over Cheng Zhichao at the beginning. Not only him, but even Zheng Huaizhu had this idea. But they were all rejected by Cheng Zhichao. At least with the situation that Lao Jiang has mastered, Cheng Zhichao is still quite measured in this matter. However, the chief of staff was still not at ease, afraid that his son would accidentally fall for them and be dragged into the water by them, so he decisively sent Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong to the army, away from the circle of right and wrong. ”
"Hmm. Chief of Staff Cheng is far-sighted, and this is indeed the best way to protect Cheng Zhichao. ”
"The fight in Binhai, Lao Jiang and they have also secretly investigated afterwards, and the responsibility is not on Cheng Zhichao. At that time, Zhao Jiyong's Binhai Normal School had a hormonal explosion and made some shocking moves in the school. Cheng Zhichao just caught up with the excitement. After the incident, some security personnel were dispatched to maintain order. Some of these people were local triad elements, and Zhao Jiyong's classmates were injured in the clashes. In order to get the injured classmates to the hospital, Cheng Zhichao and Zhao Jiyong clashed with those people. Afterwards, the two sides met again in the hospital, and they didn't agree on a word, and they fought again. ”
"These are all secondary, did Lao Jiang ask you why you suddenly remembered to investigate Cheng Zhichao?"
Cheng Yanming's face was full of admiration: "I asked, but I didn't ask why I wanted to investigate Cheng Zhichao, but whether I planned to send Cheng Zhichao to carry out high-risk tasks." This man is quite powerful, his eyes are like an awl, and I can't breathe, so I can only prevaricate with military secrets. ”
Xu Yunfu smiled slightly: "Don't forget, when I was under him, I was just a small soldier, you are so good that you dare to draw an arc in front of our Jiang platoon commander, isn't that self-defeating?" ”
Cheng Yanming said with a smile: "Now I know, veterans are veterans, and our heat is still far behind." ”
"Don't talk about these things that don't matter, did he say anything else?"
He said: Cheng Zhichao is absolutely trustworthy, and if he sends him out with the guarantee of party spirit and personality, there will definitely be no things we are worried about. Of course, what he is worried about is that Cheng Zhichao is young and knowledgeable, and if he doesn't handle it well, he will miss a big thing. ”
"That's what he said?"
"It's not like you don't have his phone, you can give him a call and ask."
"Forget it, don't ask, you're a junior, he doesn't want to force you too much. If I call him, he'll have to get to the bottom of it. Xu Yunfu shook his head and said, "Then have you seen Fang Xiaochen?" ”
"Nope." Cheng Yanming sighed, "It's not just that I haven't seen Fang Xiaochen, I'm afraid Cheng Zhichao won't be able to see her when he goes home in the future." ”
"What do you mean?"
"At that time, I also asked if I could arrange to meet Fang Xiaochen, but Lao Jiang said that Fang Xiaochen had been dead for a long time, and not long after Cheng Zhichao joined the army, she was found to be seriously ill, and the treatment was ineffective, so she died a long time ago. Cheng Zhichao doesn't know about this matter yet. ”
"What!" Shi Deping and Xu Yunfu were really shocked this time: "Fang Xiaochen has passed away, Cheng Zhichao doesn't even know it?" ”
Cheng Yanming showed a strange smile on his face: "This is Fang Xiaochen's last wish when she was dying, and she didn't want to affect Cheng Zhichao's development in the army." But when Lao Jiang said this, his expression was very strange, and he must have known some insiders. But what is certain is that Cheng Zhichao did not know the news that Fang Xiaochen had died. ”
Xu Yunfu and Shi Deping looked at each other, and the expressions of the two of them clearly showed that they finally admitted that they were old. It's a bit hard to keep up with the thinking of young people, and I can't understand what young people are thinking in their heads now.
Cheng Yanming coughed, and cautiously asked tentatively: "Team Xu, do you think you need to find time to talk to Cheng Zhichao and tell him the news that Fang Xiaochen has died?" ”
"Forget it, since Chief of Staff Cheng didn't tell him the news. It shows that Fang Xiaochen must have a certain reason for doing this, let's not make extraneous branches. ”
"What if Cheng Zhichao learns about this news from other sources?"
"If you can hide it for so long and haven't let him know, it means that there is no zài in other channels." After Xu Yunfu finished speaking, he turned his head to Shi Deping: "Man, our Jiang Platoon Commander used his party spirit to vouch for Cheng Zhichao, what do you think?" ”
"You say, is Platoon Commander Jiang's words credible?"
"Come less, it's your business. I'm just looking at the face of my old comrades-in-arms and sending someone to do you a favor. As for whether Platoon Commander Jiang's words are credible or not, you can judge for yourself and take me into the ditch. ”
"Lao Jiang's words should be credible." Shi Deping pondered for a long time and said slowly.
"Then it's decided, send Cheng Zhichao." Xu Yunfu was about to make a decision on the spot.
"I'm not done yet." Shi Deping hurriedly stopped him, "I don't have to worry about anything else." is worried that if Cheng Zhichao takes over this task, he will inevitably have to go back to their home to experience life. What if when he went back, he learned the news of Fang Xiaochen's death? ”
"I can't control this, if you think he's not suitable, you can send someone else. Although in the special combat team, Cheng Zhichao's skills are the best, but the skills of others are not much worse. It should be more than enough to complete the task. ”
"Forget it, let's let him go, I haven't seen anyone else, don't support it."
In three days, Cheng Yanming flew from the special brigade to the provincial capital. flew back to the special brigade from the provincial capital, and finally found out that the relationship between Cheng Zhichao and Fang Yueyuan's father and daughter and the underworld forces in the provincial capital was almost minimal, and the final decision was still to send him to carry out this task. Thinking of Cheng Yanming's round-trip expenses, Xu Yunfu secretly felt pain, and secretly hated the provincial police for adding snakes, causing him to lose a lot of money.
After deciding that Cheng Zhichao would go to the mission, Shi Deping happily said goodbye and went back to make preparations, while Xu Yunfu touched his chin and looked at his back, thinking about how to get his losses back from him. Suddenly, it occurred to me that I had a lot on Cheng Zhichao. was first knocked a lot by Yang Yujian, and now he was hurt by Shi Deping and lost a fortune, it seems that he has to find a way to let this kid earn some money for himself.
After Shi Deping left, Cheng Yanming also wanted to go back to rest, but before he could take a few steps, he was stopped by Xu Yunfu. Team Xu looked like a profiteer, and gave him a special order - calculate in detail how much the special brigade should charge the police to make up for all the losses on Cheng Zhichao's mission. Then, on top of that, add another thirty percent.
Cheng Yanming couldn't help but gasp.
Under normal circumstances, the police and the military maintain a certain amount of contact, and if the police encounter a problem and ask for assistance from the military, the military will help them for free, and sometimes they don't even need to take care of food. But there are exceptions to everything, like this time Shi Deping wants to seconded Cheng Zhichao to perform undercover missions, which is very different from other tasks. This mission, logically speaking, should be carried out by the police themselves. As for the level of the people dispatched and whether they can complete the task, this is a matter for the police, and there is no necessary connection with the military.
Even if the people sent by the police fail to complete the task, or die because of it, it is the police's own business. After all, the nature of the two is different, and it is impossible for the army to help them in everything. And Xu Yunfu lent Cheng Zhichao to Shi Deping, purely because Shi Deping borrowed someone from him through personal relationships. Although Xu Yunfu is the head of the special brigade and has the right to send any soldier to perform any task, he has no right to let the soldier perform the task that should not be performed by him for free.
Therefore, this mission is to collect money, and the price is not low, and it is charged on a daily basis, and it is finished once a month. In other words, as long as Cheng Zhichao has not completed the task, no matter how many days he goes out, the police will have to pay the special brigade according to the number of days he is on duty. This can be regarded as a means of generating income for Xu Yunfu, and since the establishment of the special brigade, this kind of thing has been done many times, and Cheng Yanming is no stranger to it.
However, Shi Deping is Xu Yunfu's old comrade-in-arms, Xia Zhenyang and others don't know his relationship with Xu Yunfu, but Cheng Yanming does. This time Cheng Zhichao was sent out to perform such a dangerous mission, Cheng Yanming already knew that Xu Yunfu's fees were definitely not cheap. But he never expected that Xu Yunfu would be so black, and on the basis of the normal charge, he would have to add another 30%.
After Xu Yunfu finished explaining, he walked to his office with his hands behind his back and humming an unknown song. When I walked to the door, I inadvertently looked back, and saw Cheng Yanming standing there without moving, and couldn't help frowning: "I said, what are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you count it? ”
"Huh? Be! Cheng Yanming woke up like a dream, and hurriedly agreed loudly. (To be continued......)
