Chapter 81: The Power Struggle

"Today?!"

I looked at Xu Long in surprise and asked. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The other party nodded very seriously, "I have also been thinking about this matter for several days, if I have to do it, I don't want to do it, if Li Rui catches the handle and reports it upwards, my position as the captain will be in jeopardy." ”

Hearing this, I frowned and asked, "Since it's so risky, isn't there any other way?" ”

"It's too late to find a way to find clues now, and the day after tomorrow, although I can officially take over the position of the captain of the criminal investigation team, and he Li Rui has also become the rightful deputy captain, at that time, we don't have any substantive evidence in our hands, and it will not be easy to start the trial."

"But I remember you once said that as long as you officially become the captain, Li Rui will not be a threat to you?"

Xu Long sighed helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "It's that I thought too simply, from the fact that he applied to the head to postpone your identity authentication, it can be seen that this person is not easy to deal with." To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that you made a big fuss about the criminal investigation team last time and alarmed some people above, it would have been impossible for a sudden request like yours to be accepted, even if I helped you. Therefore, as I told you before, as long as there is a way to find a breakthrough, I am willing to gamble, not only to help you, but also to help myself, because Li Rui and I have reached the point where they are incompatible. ”

Fire and water are incompatible?

Isn't this analogy too exaggerated? Although there has been a fight between him and Li Rui, on the whole, there is still no incident, and no matter how Xu Long is said to be one level higher than Li Ruiguan, even if he is secretly calculated by the other party, the situation is always in his favor.

Xu Long seemed to see my thoughts, and said: "You are not often in the team, so I don't know a lot of things, because of the antagonistic relationship between me and Li Rui, now the criminal investigation team is also secretly divided into two factions, if many things are handled carelessly, it will touch the whole body, causing turmoil in the team, and this is also what I don't want to see, so there will always be scruples about doing things, not to mention, my current captain status is not right." ”

My brows raised slightly, no wonder when rescuing the hostages, Li Rui and Xu Long each brought a team of men and horses, and I was still wondering why these two teams of people seemed to be acting alone?

And being said by him also made me realize the difficulty of this captain, and even some of his actions became understandable, but in the criminal investigation team, Li Rui could have such power at a young age, which was really unexpected to me.

However, I quickly thought of the reason and asked, "Could it be that those people who support Li Rui are related to Lu Yong?" ”

Xu Long nodded, "Actually, those people were not close to Li Rui originally, and after Lu Yong died, they all took care of themselves, but Li Rui has always insisted on tracking down the cause of his death, and kept saying that the murderer is still at large, which made those people gather around Li Rui again, and even put pressure on me together." ”

"Why are they doing this? It stands to reason that Lu Yong is dead, you are still the vice captain, he Li Rui is nothing, those people should follow you as a matter of course, even if it is to avenge Lu Yong, shouldn't they all be led by you, the person with the highest position in the team? I asked, puzzled.

Who knows, Xu Long suddenly showed a look of guilt, and said embarrassedly: "Alas, I am also responsible for this matter, when Lu Yong just died, the team was in chaos, in order to deal with other things, I discussed with the superior leaders, let Lu Yong be buried first, and then slowly investigate the cause of his death, and it was this decision that allowed Li Rui to seize the opportunity." ”

This is the first time I have heard about the inside of the criminal investigation team since I woke up from the hospital, and I can't help but be full of curiosity, I didn't interrupt Xu Long's train of thought, but waited for him to continue.

"Li Rui rumored in the team that I didn't want to find out the cause of Lu Yong's death, and at the same time investigated on his own, and he had always been valued by Lu Yong in the past, those old subordinates of Lu Yong slowly leaned towards him. But that's not the worst......" Xu Long suddenly laughed as he spoke, and said self-deprecatingly: "And the most ridiculous thing is that I realized all this later, and when I found out, I wanted to change it, but it was too late." ”

"Power struggle."

When I say these four words, it means that I have begun to understand how muddy the water of the criminal investigation brigade is, when the struggle for power is integrated into the case, things are no longer simple, and the case is no longer a simple black and white right and wrong, it has become a weapon used by others, and the winner will determine the outcome of the case.

"You're right, that's why you think Li Rui's behavior is weird, because you always look at things from the perspective of the case, but now we have to face more than just this series of cases. We all started to wrestle outside the case, because everyone understands the truth of winning and losing, so I will say again one last time, there is not much time left for us, if even our internal morale is unstable now, this battle will definitely be lost. ”

After talking for a long time, Xu Long spared the words again.

Seriously, if you put the case aside, I don't think Xu Long will be much better than Li Rui, everyone is using this series of cases to achieve their own goals, this kind of intrigue will inevitably make me a little disheartened.

However, Xu Long is not wrong in one sentence, there is no turning back when he opens the bow, since we have finally come to this point, there is no reason to give up because of some baseless speculation, only to go on firmly.

I took a deep breath, looked at each other seriously, and said seriously, "I understand, anyway, there are still two days left, even if you have to get through it." ”

"I'm relieved to hear you say that."

Xu Long showed a pleased smile on his face, he looked down at the watch on his wrist, stood up and said to me: "You sit here first, I'll go outside to take a look, once the archives are ready, I will take you over immediately, no matter what happens, you don't care, just remember one thing, just verify your identity as soon as possible!" ”

Xu Long said as he walked out of the office.

This moment is finally coming, and my mood has changed from the excitement at the beginning to the apprehension, and now, we have put all the bets on this matter, but the cause of this incident is only a memory of myself, and the risk of doing so is self-evident.

I shook my head vigorously to prevent myself from being controlled by this negative perception, and now I have no way out.

After about half an hour, Xu Long returned, and there was a faint flush of excitement on his wrinkled face, and it seemed that everything was ready.

Sure enough, Xu Long stood in front of me, looked at me for a moment, and then asked with a solemn expression, "Are you ready?" We're good to go! ”
