Chapter 181 Begins the Road to Drug Elimination
Thank you everyone. I hope we can all work together in the future.
After the meeting, Qi Tongwei went to his office to review case files and familiarize himself with the personnel information of the special task force.
"Chief Chen, we've got such a young anti-drug squad leader. I wonder what the leadership was thinking."
Narcotics officer Wu Dali, known for his outspokenness, voiced his grievances, expressing his indignation on behalf of Chen Shunjun, the deputy head of the narcotics squad.
Wu Dali is an orphan who grew up in an orphanage. After graduating from the police academy, he became a narcotics officer and was the best in the team in terms of fighting and marksmanship.
"Speak less, do more. Leaders have their own considerations; don't talk nonsense."
Chen Shunjun harbored resentment. Even if the leaders didn't trust him to be the head of the anti-drug squad, they shouldn't have put such a young kid in charge of him.
“Chief Chen, I didn’t say anything wrong. Look at him, he might not even be as old as me. He looks like a college student, not a policeman. We deal with ruthless drug dealers. Does that mean I’ll have to be his bodyguard in the future?”
Wu Dali was a million times dissatisfied. Unless he was challenged to a duel, he would fight back. He loved challenging people, but he never held back, which eventually led to no one daring to fight him anymore.
"Stop talking nonsense and get to work."
Chen Shunjun is a good-tempered person who is serious about his work and is also good at ideological work. The team members all like him very much.
Wu Dali had no choice but to reluctantly return to his seat, still feeling resentful.
Lan Ying walked over, with short hair and a cool demeanor. She was transferred from the Provincial Criminal Investigation Detachment to the special task force, and her father was a martyr.
"Chief Chen, the data is ready. Take a look."
Chen Shunjun was a good friend of Lan Ying's father. They served in the army together and both became police officers after returning from the military. Later, one became a criminal investigator and the other became a narcotics officer. After Lan Ying's father passed away, Chen Shunjun continued to help Lan Ying and her mother. Lan Ying was always very grateful to Chen Shunjun.
"Well done, thank you for your hard work."
Lan Ying also felt indignant for Chen Shunjun, but her personality had become increasingly withdrawn since her father's death.
Qi Tongwei came out with the documents and asked, "Chief Chen, do you have a moment? I'd like to ask you a few questions."
Chen Shunjun was very enthusiastic, "Chief Qi, let's talk in your office."
"Okay, Chief Chen, I'll be waiting for you."
Qi Tongwei turned and went back to his office. He knew that people didn't trust him, but he couldn't put on airs as soon as he arrived; attitude was very important.
Chen Shunjun affirmed Qi Tongwei's attitude, after all, one doesn't hit a smiling face.
In the office, Qi Tongwei humbly sought advice, and Chen Shunjun, being very responsible, patiently explained everything one by one until Qi Tongwei fully understood.
The colleagues outside were all whispering and chatting amongst themselves.
"Dali, why don't you go find the new branch captain and have a competition after work?"
"Yeah, Dali, I bet you can take him down in three rounds."
"Dali, if you win, I'll treat you to midnight snacks for a week."
Wu Dali was even tempted by his colleagues; beating up the new branch captain didn't seem like a bad idea, so he decided to go for it.
"It's a deal. If I win, everyone has to treat me to midnight snacks for a week."
"it is good"
"it is good"
"it is good"
Everyone can afford to treat us to fried rice noodles for a week.
Lan Ying shook her head; Wu Dali was truly a pig-brain.
After reviewing the case files, Qi Tongwei left early. He still needed to buy some toiletries and clothes today, as he would officially begin his work tomorrow.
His colleagues immediately gave Wu Dali a meaningful look, urging him to quickly issue a challenge to Qi Tongwei.
Wu Dali took a deep breath and stood up abruptly. "Qi Zhi!"
Qi Tongwei stopped and smiled, "Wu Dali, what's the matter?"
Wu Dali gritted his teeth, "Chief Qi, it's not time to leave work yet."
The colleagues frowned, breaking out in a cold sweat. What kind of subordinate questions their boss about when they'll leave work? That shows a complete lack of emotional intelligence.
Qi Tongwei didn't seem to mind. "Wu Dali, I just arrived in eastern Guangdong today and I still need to buy some personal items. I think you have something else to say."
The colleagues breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that the new leader wasn't just pretending to be magnanimous.
Wu Dali realized he had misspoke and quickly tried to cover it up, "Qi Zhi, where do you live? Do you need any help?"
My colleagues are going crazy. That damn Wu Dali, you're usually so stubborn, but today you suddenly had a breakthrough.
Qi Tongwei didn't want to hide anything and wanted to reassure everyone, "I'm staying in a hotel. I'll leave as soon as this case is solved, so I haven't made any preparations and I don't need your help."
His colleagues looked puzzled, wondering if he was truly capable or just boasting. Could the case really be solved so easily?
Of course, everyone understood at least one thing: Qi Tongwei wouldn't be staying here for long. In that case, it would be better for everyone to get along peacefully.
"Qi Zhi, why are you staying in a hotel? There are several beds available in the dormitory."
Wu Dali didn't understand why he would waste money.
My colleagues realized, "Yeah, why can you stay in a hotel while we have to stay in a dormitory? Isn't that a waste of the country's money?"
Qi Tongwei could tell from everyone's eyes that they were not worried about scarcity but about inequality.
"I'm used to living alone, and I pay for my own hotel stays so as not to use up case-handling funds."
Hearing this, the colleagues breathed a sigh of relief. It was more likely that he would pay for it himself, but the question was, where did he get the money? It seemed that he must have a powerful family background. Sigh, everyone could only sigh that being born into the right family is a skill, and everyone wanted to have a rich and powerful father.
Wu Dali hesitated to get to the point, so a colleague volunteered, "Chief Qi, we have a rule in our team that every new recruit Wu Dali has to spar with. You don't mind, do you?"
Looking at Wu Dali's physique, which resembled that of a northerner, Qi Tongwei said, "No problem, let's do it another day, Wu Dali, you decide the time."
"You decide the time," Wu Dali sensed a hint of provocation in the voice. Since that was the case, he wouldn't hold back.
"Captain Qi, let's do it this Sunday."
"Okay, I agree. Does anyone have any questions? If not, I'll be going now."
"there is none left"
"there is none left"
"there is none left"
Qi Tongwei said goodbye to Chen Shunjun again and left. After going out, he took a taxi to Tianhe Hotel. Tianhe Hotel is about a 15-minute drive from the Provincial Government Building, which is neither too far nor too close.
Upon arriving at Tianhe Hotel, he first booked a long-term room for a month, and then took a taxi to a shopping mall to buy toiletries and clothes.
That evening, Qi Tongwei called He Lian in Hong Kong and asked her to help him sell all the shares of that stock. After deducting all fees, he could make about 3 million. Then, he would divide the 3 million into five equal parts and buy five other stocks with a return of at least 10 times.
Jingzhou received a commendation notice from Shanghai for Qi Tongwei. Provincial Party Secretary Xu Dingbang personally ordered that the procuratorate promote him another rank, and he is now a deputy division chief.
Ji Changming breathed a sigh of relief when he received the notice of secondment of Qi Tongwei from Guangdong. He thought to himself, "Let that kid wreak havoc all over the country. I can't let him live a life of constant anxiety."
The next day, Qi Tongwei held a brief meeting. After the meeting, he called Wu Dali over and said, "Wu Dali, come with me to Chenjia Village later."
On his first day of work, he had to go to Chenjiazhai. His colleagues all stopped and looked at Qi Tongwei. "Brother, Chenjiazhai isn't a place you can just walk into."
