Chapter 106: Clever Layout Gradually Grows (9)
When Wu Peng finished taking a bath, he heard a message from the doorman in the villa area. The TV was still on in the living room, and Li Fangsheng was speaking sadly on the screen.
"We are sorry about Mr. Bruce's death. But at the same time, we can't help but ask, what is the reason for the dignified Deputy Secretary for Justice to go to a secret meeting with a triad leader? What did they talk about? Why did Bruce kill the employees of Justice Preservation? What the hell is he trying to hide? β
"If it weren't for the thunderous action of justice preservation that just exposed this scene of black-white collusion, how long would we, the citizens of Xiangjiang, be concealed by them? On this point, I hope Mr. Peng Ankang can give me an answer. β
"Here I will make a solemn promise to the general public, and I will definitely follow up on this matter to the end! This time, our Democratic Party and the Justice Party will join hands, and our two Chinese parties will definitely clarify the political arena of Xiangjiang and give all citizens a prosperous and stable Xiangjiang! β
Li Fangsheng's movements are also very fast!
There was a hint of a smile in Wu Peng's eyes, but he pinched his nose and had to endorse the Justice Party, which must be as disgusting as swallowing a fly, right?
He called the doorman.
"Villa 9, what's the matter?" Wu Peng asked.
"It's Mr. Wu, right? Excuse me. So, two ladies came to you and said they had made an appointment with you. "That's the way.
"Oh, yes. Let them in, thank you. Wu Peng said with a smile.
"Okay, let it go right away!"
The villas here are all inhabited by big figures in the political and business circles of Xiangjiang, so the security is very tight, and the patrolling security guards are all in-service soldiers, with real guns.
This is also the reason why Wu Peng is not afraid of being assassinated at this cusp. Because people in the political circles will not set such a bad precedent, and the people in the underworld just want to kill him, and they will never dare to come when they hear that this is this place.
Why?
Because the second daughter of the Governor lives in the villa on the top floor!
Dare to kill people here, which is equivalent to self-isolation from Xiangjiang. And the deployment of forces of a company here is no joke.
Wu Peng came to the door, waiting for Qiu Di's return.
About five minutes later, a black SUV stopped in front of the yard. A small and nimble figure jumped out of the car and looked over.
Wu Peng smiled happily.
Autumn Causeway!
Qiu Di wears a black vest, camouflage military pants, military boots, and her hair is tied into a ponytail, looking clean and vigorous, and she has the temperament of a delicate female killer.
She seemed to have grown a little taller, and her skin was not as fair as before, but wheat-colored. The soft lines on the face have also become angular, a little more sassy and heroic, and a little less delicate and moving.
The only thing that hasn't changed is the eyes, which are always like eyes with a pool of blue water, clean and clear.
Wu Peng had already walked briskly to meet him.
Qiu Di's eyes were a little red, his hands were behind his back, and his knuckles were tangled together. She pursed her lips and looked at Brother Peng who was walking like her with a happy smile on his face, and the strength and bravery she had been so many days suddenly began to disintegrate rapidly.
For a moment, she even felt like she was the same weak little girl she didn't know anything or anything twenty days ago.
But when she saw Brother Peng's thinner face and slightly tired eyes, the perseverance she had cultivated over the past few days returned to her body.
Brother Peng, I'm about to learn my skills, I will definitely be able to help you!
"Haha! Little Autumn Causeway! Wu Peng opened his arms as he walked, as if he wanted to hug Qiu Di. But his gaze quickly swept over the bulging height under Qiu Di's small vest, and his arms immediately retracted and rubbed Qiu Di's hair instead.
Wu Peng rubbed Qiu Di's hair vigorously, and kneaded the little girl's neatly combed hair into a mess.
"Why did you get a tan and lose weight?" Wu Peng smiled happily, "Isn't it a good time to eat and rest these days?" Hey, why don't you seem happy to see me, at least smile and show me! β
Qiu Di only felt a huge warmth surrounding her, and it suddenly melted the ice that had condensed in her heart for more than 20 days. And the familiar and intimate feeling given to her by that warm hand is like an infinite magic, which gives her infinite strength and emotion in an instant.
Qiu Di smiled happily, and the tears that had not been shed for more than 20 days came down all at once, and he couldn't stop it.
She twitched her nose, and suddenly stepped forward and hugged Wu Peng hard. She arched her head into Wu Peng's arms, her cheek pressed against his chest, and hugged it harder, a little tighter.
That's nice.
Qiu Di smiled with tears in his eyes, and called softly: "Brother Peng." β
Wu Peng first stiffened, and then relaxed. His eyes were full of softness, he touched Qiu Di's hair, and said gently, "It's good to come back." Don't worry, it's all over, and you will never suffer a little more grievance in the future. β
"Hmm!" Akiti nodded vigorously.
Wu Peng patted her little head, and then nodded to the thirteenth aunt standing behind the car: "I'm slacking, please inside." β
The thirteenth aunt looked at this young face, and she couldn't feel a sense of disobedience in her heart.
The calmness and majesty of this face suddenly made her subconsciously ignore the age of the other party. She seems to have an illusion that the Wu Peng in front of her is very similar to Deng Guangrong twenty years ago.
"Mr. Wu, we finally met." Aunt Thirteen said with emotion, "Actually, I also want to talk to you." I just hope you don't take the previous misunderstanding to heart. β
Wu Peng smiled without saying a word, and made a gesture of please. Immediately, he took Qiu Di's hand and took the lead in walking towards the villa.
At the West Kowloon Police Station, negotiations between Li Yuan and Commissioner James have reached the last moment. From beginning to end, in front of the embarrassed and frightened James, Li Yuan occupied the absolute initiative.
This official daughter, who used to be just full of romantic fantasies, has matured rapidly in a short period of time. Years of good education have allowed her to quickly master the skills of negotiation, and her thinking is no longer those endless illusory pictures, but the meticulousness and rigor of the notes.
Li Yuan was originally from a political family, although she has been with those second-generation officials and rich second-generation people over the years, and has been exaggerated some naΓ―ve and unrealistic ideas, but after all, she has grown up under the influence of her family since she was a child, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and has also been instilled with some officialdom ways of thinking.
For so many days, she has been meeting celebrities from all walks of life and dealing with some business matters, and the hidden "official gene" has gradually awakened.
"Administrator James, you should be well aware of where you are now." Li Yuan said eloquently, "The solution I just proposed can not only restore your impression in front of the Governor of Hong Kong, not be held accountable, and even further strengthen your position in the police department." This incident has dealt a great blow to your prestige, and several deputy commissioners of your police station will definitely take the opportunity to attack you and divide your power in the police station. β
"Enough, don't say it!" James took the case and glared angrily at Li Yuan. "Alice, you took advantage of my feelings for you, you tricked me into signing that license, you hurt me! You still want to use me, I tell you, don't even think about it! β
"Uncle James, you have to calm down." Li Yuan spread her hands innocently, "Your anger now doesn't help your situation, people should look forward and think about the future, shouldn't they?" β
"Fack!" James cursed angrily and sat back down.
Li Yuan smiled slightly, she followed Wu Peng's example, knocked lightly on the table, and said slowly and steadily: "James, there are many parts of our Justice Preservation Company and the Police Department that have highly overlapping powers. You know that our company's proposal to make it public will pass, so why don't you fight for your own benefit? β
"The Governor of Hong Kong also understands this, and he can't stop our Justice Party from entering the Legislative Council, because all the Chinese will be on our side! So, if you can minimize your losses, and even gain some benefits, isn't that the best chance for you to make up for your mistakes? β
"If you, Administrator James, are the culprits of the major redemption in the end, who can say anything to you again?"
James's tangled expression finally loosened, and he asked, "Alice, tell me honestly, do you really only need the two powers of triad investigation and public security service for justice preservation?" Never reach out to other powers? β
Li Yuan nodded sincerely: "It's more real than pearls!" Uncle James, I also wanted to compensate you for making this decision. β
James twitched his cheeks, forcibly restrained the urge to scold, and continued to ask: "You said that after the justice preservation of the public was changed to the Security Bureau, it will be directly responsible to the Governor of Hong Kong, can you guarantee to draw a clear line with Li Fangsheng?" β
Li Yuan spread her hands: "Uncle Jade, the Customs and Immigration Department is one of the core functions and powers of my uncle. Now that my Security Bureau wants to take these two powers, that is, to cut the flesh from him, do you think Uncle will still treat me as a family? β
"Besides, it's not something for the Governor of Hong Kong, is it?" Li Yuan said with a smile, "The immigration reform plan he is currently working on ......"
James' eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of the key.
"How do you guarantee that the Security Bureau will follow the Governor's instructions in the future?" James gritted his teeth and asked the last question, which was also the most sensitive.
Li Yuan's face became serious, and she said solemnly: "The refugee problem in Baishitan is the biggest stumbling block to immigration reform, and since the second incident of Vietnamese fishermen's riots, the Hong Kong Governor's plan has once again been seriously opposed by the legislators. There have already been calls for a re-veto of his reform plan in the Legislative Council. β
"Here I can make a promise to the Governor that once we the Justice Party are elected to the Legislative Council, we will fully support him on the issue of Vietnamese boat people! Not only that, but the newly established Security Bureau will also fully cooperate with him in repatriating illegal immigrants from Vietnam! Solve this stubborn disease once and for all! Uncle James, I believe you won't doubt the execution of our Justice Preservation Company, right? β
James exhaled deeply, he had been thoroughly convinced.
"Great cooperation, Alice!" James stretched out his hand with a wise expression, as if the man who had been angry before was not him at all.
"It's a pleasure to work with." Li Yuan's hand was held with him, and both of them smiled.
It's just that one laughs like an old fox, and the other laughs like a little fox.
