Chapter 354 Confrontation

In the corridor of the General Administration of Unified Control, everyone stood face to face, and the atmosphere was somewhat rigid for a moment.

Gu Baisun spoke in a rigid manner, with no intention of letting anyone go.

Su Tianbei sized up his expression and softly persuaded, "Director Gu, Zheng Hui's father just passed away today, and he's had a bit to drink, so he's not in a good mood. I just got here, and I don't know what happened between you two, but for my sake, let him go first. There are so many people here, don't make everyone look bad."

Gu Baisun frowned but didn't say anything.

The head of the Intelligence Section stood beside him, his brows furrowed, "Regimental Commander Su, you really can't blame our Director Gu for this! You didn't see it, but that Kong Zheng Hui was pointing his finger at our Director Gu and cursing! We didn't pay him any attention at first, but he went too far and started making a scene, yelling that we didn't dare to touch him! You know that our General Administration of Unified Control has the right to isolate any administrative cadre! We've already been very restrained!"

"Yes, yes, I know..." Su Tianbei said helplessly, then turned to Gu Baisun and said, "Zheng Hui really did have too much to drink, there's no need for us to..."

Su Tianbei was very polite, but Gu Baisun still lowered his head and remained silent.

Seeing this, Zhou Tonghui subconsciously took two steps forward.

Yu Mingyuan quickly reached out and grabbed him, shaking his head at him.

Zhou Tonghui's face was a little unsightly, and Yu Mingyuan whispered, "Don't make things worse."

Zhou Tonghui watched him stop and said nothing.

The atmosphere suddenly became rigid, everyone was silent, and Kong Zheng Hui calmed down a little, standing there, looking at Gu Baisun with a gloomy gaze.

Su Tianbei reached out and patted Gu Baisun's shoulder, "This isn't a solution. Director Gu, can you let me take him away first?"

Gu Baisun frowned, thought for a moment, and told Su Tianbei very frankly, "Regimental Commander Su, it's not that I don't want to give you face. He made a scene here, cursed people, and then left. How is the General Administration of Unified Control supposed to carry out its work in the future?"

Su Tianbei sighed softly. He also understood Gu Baisun's difficulties, but the matter had to be resolved, and a way out had to be found for both sides.

Since he couldn't solve it himself, he could only find someone who could.

Thinking of this, Su Tianbei said softly, "Wait for me, I'll make a call."

Gu Baisun didn't say anything and nodded.

Su Tianbei walked to the other side of the corridor and dialed a number.

The call was quickly connected. After a few words, Su Tianbei walked over and handed the phone to Gu Baisun, "Director Gu, take this."

Gu Baisun seemed to be prepared, and without saying anything, he reached out and took the phone, also walking to a corner on the side, and asked in a low voice, "Hello, Director Su?"

"Why are you investigating Kong Zhengqi?" Su Tianyu's voice came from the phone, his tone calm, as if he were just discussing work as usual.

Gu Baisun explained directly, "Considering the recent tense situation in Dragon City, I have launched three rounds of internal investigations. I had asked you for approval for this matter before, you know that."

Su Tianyu said softly, "Yes, I know."

Gu Baisun paused, then continued, "During the investigation, I found that Kong Zhengqi had transferred a large amount of assets overseas multiple times, and had also been in contact with several overseas asset consulting companies. After our verification, the identities of two of the negotiators were unknown."

Su Tianyu fell silent upon hearing this.

Gu Baisun spoke objectively and clearly, without any exaggeration. This matter was actually quite serious.

Su Tianyu pondered for a long time before asking, "Can you prove that Zheng Hui is involved in this?"

Gu Baisun shook his head, "There's definitely no way to prove that. Kong Zhengqi has always been the one handling things. However, this is a big deal, and it's impossible that he wasn't instructed to do it."

The phone fell silent again, and Su Tianyu thought for a long time.

After more than ten seconds, he said, "How about this, let Zheng Hui go back first. His father just passed away today, and work conflicts shouldn't be resolved today. As for Kong Zhengqi, interrogate him normally, and follow normal procedures. If it's later confirmed that the asset transfer did happen, don't do anything yet, let me ask Zheng Hui, and I'll handle it."

Gu Baisun rubbed his temples and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Director Su."

"Okay, go take care of it."

The phone hung up, Gu Baisun adjusted his emotions and walked back.

He first returned the phone to Su Tianbei, then walked up to Kong Zheng Hui, who was being held up, and looked at him expressionlessly, "Before this, we both performed our duties, and we didn't interfere with each other. But because of what you said just now, remember this, don't you ever mess up, or I will definitely get you!"

Kong Zheng Hui stared at Gu Baisun with a gloomy gaze and said nothing.

After making a scene, he had sobered up a bit. Plus, Yu Mingyuan and the others had come, and he couldn't help but give them face.

Whatever it was, he would resolve it later.

Gu Baisun turned to Su Tianbei and said, "Regimental Commander Su, Kong Zheng Hui can go back, but Kong Zhengqi must stay and accept our investigation."

Su Tianbei nodded, "Okay."

Gu Baisun then waved his hand and ordered, "Put Kong Zheng Hui down."

Two strong guards released their grip, and Kong Zheng Hui's body went limp. Yu Mingyuan and Zhou Tonghui quickly stepped forward and grabbed him.

Kong Zheng Hui bit his lip and glanced at Gu Baisun. Yu Mingyuan, worried that he would lose control, pulled him and said, "Let's go, let's go back, everyone's worried. We'll talk about Zhengqi's matter later..."

With that, the group led Kong Zheng Hui out of the General Administration of Unified Control.

...

At the same time, at sea.

Su Tianyu put down the satellite phone, feeling somewhat annoyed. He picked up his cigarette pack, preparing to go outside for a smoke.

An Qiqi had heard the whole thing from the side. Seeing him like this, she put down the book she was reading and said softly, "Alright, don't go out, I'll allow you to smoke one in here."

Su Tianyu nodded, sat down by the window, and pushed open the vent.

Fresh sea breeze poured in, and Su Tianyu smoked his cigarette, looking out the window, thinking about something.

An Qiqi sized up his profile, thought for a long time, and couldn't help but ask, "I've never really understood why you insist on using Gu Baisun, when your team's relationship with him is so adversarial?"

Su Tianyu turned to look at An Qiqi, hesitated, and finally said, "In the beginning, there was no choice, because I needed to use the Wharf Association."

An Qiqi asked very directly, "What about now? Dragon City is unified now, you can totally take him down."

In private, An Qiqi didn't hide her emotions too much. She also had some feelings about Gu Baisun.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she asked these questions that were on her mind.

Su Tianyu took a few puffs of his cigarette and slowly asked, "Qiqi, in a team, if everyone is friends, all in the same boat... then, what is the point of the General Administration of Unified Control existing? What is the point of the Discipline Inspection Group?"

Hearing this, An Qiqi thought for a long time but didn't give an answer.

Su Tianyu paused and then said, "Building a team isn't as easy as you think. Gu Baisun works under me, and he needs my nod or shake of the head for everything he does. But if he's not there, there are many things that I might only be able to nod to."

An Qiqi sighed, "No wonder my dad took a liking to you. You're exactly like him."

Su Tianyu smiled, stood up, and reached out to pat An Qiqi's head, "It's enough for me to be like this, you don't need to be."

...

Two days later, Dragon City.

Tan Mingzhao and Wa Wa's, Yu Mingyuan and Wen Xiaorou's weddings were finally about to begin. Amidst a joyful atmosphere, various treacherous schemes were gradually surfacing...
