Chapter 1149 Whose Man Is He?
It was midnight at the Quan Tong Bureau.
Su Tianyu, having worked all day, had not yet rested. He sat in his office, chatting with Gu Baishun.
"With Lu Guangwei in custody, the military line is clear. Assist the police in investigating and handling this case quickly. Release the news to the public as soon as possible to suppress the negative public opinion," Su Tianyu instructed softly.
"Are you planning to…"
"He must die." Su Tianyu replied without hesitation, "The tallest tree catches the most wind. There's no other way."
"Doing so would fall for Kang Dinghuang's trap. He wants to see you do this," Gu Baishun reminded him.
"I know." Su Tianyu replied expressionlessly, "It's a conspiracy. This is the only way to break the game."
"What about the San Guang Hui (Three Lights Society)?" Gu Baishun asked again.
Su Tianyu interjected, "If we issue a statement, regarding the situation of the San Guang Hui, say that the personnel are still at large and are being pursued. We'll give the public a detailed explanation soon."
Upon hearing this, Gu Baishun immediately revealed an expression of understanding, "Is this the price he's making you pay for using a conspiracy against you?"
"If I don't avenge this, I swear I'm not a man!" Su Tianyu said with a dark face, "This Kang Dinghuang has been like a tortoise for over a year, never leaving his territory. Otherwise, I would have gotten rid of him!"
"It's only a matter of time," Gu Baishun replied.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Su Tianyu looked at the time, "Is it this late already? Let's go, call Monkey, and let's go to the cafeteria for a meal together."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
"Enter!"
Hou Guoyu pushed the door open and said, "Sixth Master, Dai Quan is here."
Su Tianyu nodded, "Okay, let him in. Baishun, you and Monkey wait for me at the door for a while."
"Okay." Gu Baishun got up and left the office with Hou Guoyu.
Dai Quan brushed past them and walked in with a carefree attitude. He stood beside the desk and gave Su Tianyu an extremely non-standard military salute, "Hello, Director Su. I'm here to report on my work."
Seeing his appearance, Su Tianyu smiled, "As expected, an expert knows his stuff. I didn't expect you to bring me such a surprise! Let's go, I don't have much to thank you with, so let me treat you to a meal in the cafeteria."
Dai Quan looked disgusted, "You're such a big director, and you're only treating me to a meal in the cafeteria?"
Dai Quan's demeanor was very relaxed, and he spoke casually, without the tension and awkwardness that others felt when facing Su Tianyu. However, he didn't go too far, and instead acted like a friend he had known for many years.
This person was capable and decisive in his work, so Su Tianyu didn't mind his way of talking to him. He only smiled and replied, "You came too suddenly, and I can't prepare anything now. Let's just go to the cafeteria. We can chat there. I'll treat you to a big meal later."
"Alright, I'll just make do with a bite for now." Dai Quan put his hands behind his back, as if he were the leader.
"This way, please."
The group left the office and headed to the bureau's cafeteria. Because the Quan Tong Bureau often worked overtime, there were cooks who specialized in cooking at night.
Iron trays were placed on the counter, containing a variety of dishes, but they were all home-style meals.
Su Tianyu took a plate, just like a regular employee, and picked up a few of his usual dishes, then walked to a table and sat down.
Dai Quan said he was disgusted, but he didn't skimp on the food on his plate, filling it to the brim and also getting soup. Hou Guoyu and Gu Baishun, in order not to disturb them, only carried their plates and sat to the side.
Su Tianyu slowly chewed his food, while Dai Quan on the opposite side devoured it, eating large pieces of meat and drinking large mouthfuls of soup, eating with great relish.
Such a large portion of food was not enough for him, and he added to it twice in the middle.
More than twenty minutes later, both of them were full. Su Tianyu then put down his chopsticks and said to Dai Quan, who was picking his teeth, "I've discovered that you're quite bold! Stealing people? Aren't you afraid of something going wrong and the whole team being exposed?"
Dai Quan picked his teeth slowly and replied, "This thing, it's not as complicated as you think. What kind of place was Lu Guangwei in? That was a den of vice. To put it bluntly, even if you sent a troop to attack him, you might not be able to catch Lu Guangwei. This matter requires skill. Attacking head-on and me sneaking in, the risks are actually about the same."
As he spoke, Dai Quan smiled, "However, I didn't expect this trip to have some unexpected gains. Not only did I bring Lu Guangwei out, but I also successfully turned a few people."
Su Tianyu frowned, "What do you mean by turned?"
"Hehe, this matter is quite amazing to talk about…" Dai Quan told the story of A Gui in detail, and at the end he joked, "This kid is really miserable! After he came back with me, he felt that he couldn't clear his name, so he called his wife. Unexpectedly, his wife and little brother also ran away with the money today. The reason they chose today was because A Gui went to see the sunrise with me in the morning, which made it easier for them to collect money. Alas, life is unpredictable!"
"Haha!!"
Su Tianyu burst out laughing after listening, "That's really awesome!"
The events that had occurred recently had made Su Tianyu feel very anxious, but after he met Dai Quan, his emotions relaxed inexplicably.
This person, like Da Bai, had an interesting soul.
Dai Quan put down his toothpick and stared at Su Tianyu, asking, "Director Su, what are you planning to do about District One?"
Hearing this, Su Tianyu frowned slightly. After considering Dai Quan's identity, he still said truthfully, "If someone punches me, I'll definitely return two punches. There's nothing to say about that. I'll let the San Guang Hui line continue to ferment."
Dai Quan's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Who are you going to have follow this line?"
Su Tianyu glanced at him, "I have people here."
Dai Quan pointed to himself, "Forget about having people. Just give it to me, and I'll handle it for you."
Su Tianyu was stunned, "Why do you have to handle this matter? You know the level of danger it involves! Are you really not afraid of death?"
Catching Lu Guangwei meant offending the drug dealers in South America. But running the San Guang Hui line meant offending District One, and the level of risk behind that was completely different.
Dai Quan smiled, "You have to understand that I'm not doing this to help you, let alone to help anyone get benefits. I'm very pure. I'm just here to serve you."
Su Tianyu joked, "Am I paying you overtime? Why do you have to serve me?"
Dai Quan just smiled and didn't say anything.
After thinking carefully for a long time, Su Tianyu replied softly, "How about this, come back to the office with me. I have something to talk to you about alone."
"Okay."
The two of them took their plates back to the counter and left the cafeteria.
…
Five minutes later, the two returned to the office.
As soon as Dai Quan came in, he sat on the sofa with his legs crossed and started smoking a cheap cigarette.
Su Tianyu walked to the cabinet, opened the glass door, and took out a jar of tiger penis wine in an exquisite box, gently placing it on the coffee table, "I have many capable people under me, and this is a tonic wine they specially sent me, but I've never been willing to drink it. Take it back and give it to the person who sent you here."
Hearing this, Dai Quan was stunned, "You know who sent me here?"
Su Tianyu smiled, "I guess he likes to drink."
"You're just like your dead father." Dai Quan blinked and patted the wine bottle, "Good stuff. Okay, I'll take it for him first. What about the San Guang Hui?"
Su Tianyu nodded lightly, "I can let you do it."
The matter was settled, and everyone sat in the office and chatted for a few more words.
More than ten minutes later, the two waved goodbye, and Dai Quan left with the wine.
Watching his departing back, Su Tianyu sat behind his desk and couldn't help but sigh, "Ah, old people are cunning, and ghosts are smart. You still see far…"
