Official Career Storm-Chapter 865:

Wu Qiangwei stared at him in astonishment, lost in thought.

After two or three seconds, she uncertainly asked, "A gun?"

"Yes."

"A handgun?"

"Yes."

"Where did you get it from?"

After all, he had been searched before entering the interrogation room. How could he have a gun?

And two of them at that!

Song Guanchao said, "I beat those two guys up and stole their guns."

"You..."

Wu Qiangwei was momentarily at a loss for words.

That was a bit too bold!

To actually steal guns directly.

After hesitating for a while, Wu Qiangwei wanted to scold him, but couldn't bring herself to do it. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

How could she blame him?

Although Song Guanchao's methods were not honorable, it was because Xiang Dong's subordinates were illegally using force.

They were unkind, so Song Guanchao acted unrighteously.

Moreover, Song Guanchao's tactics could even get rid of these corrupt elements from the criminal police team, which was also a public service.

"Go ahead."

Wu Qiangwei sighed.

Song Guanchao walked over and followed Liang Jianfeng into the precinct.

After bringing him into the interrogation room, Liang Jianfeng took off his handcuffs and, along with two junior officers, personally interrogated Song Guanchao.

Song Guanchao was very cooperative, answering all questions.

After all, it was his future father-in-law.

Luckily, his relationship with Liang Jiajia wasn't public; otherwise, Liang Jianfeng would have to avoid suspicion in this case.

After completing the statement, Liang Jianfeng said, "Make any requests into the camera."

"Cigarettes, tea, some food, and a blanket."

Ten minutes later, everything he asked for was delivered.

After eating and drinking his fill, smoking a cigarette, Song Guanchao laid down and slept.

Meanwhile, Liang Jianfeng gathered all the relevant evidence.

He then led a team to the Tax Bureau to check Director Yang's office.

Next, they went to Director Yang's home to examine the scene.

Then, they contacted the coroner to inquire about the exact cause of death.

Finally, he returned to review the submitted evidence.

For instance, the chat records between Director Yang and Zhang Fang over this period.

And the call records with Song Guanchao.

Additionally, the number that had contacted Zhang Fang and sent the address to Song Guanchao.

In the meeting room, Liang Jianfeng called together all members of the task force for a brief meeting.

"Director Zhao, contact the bank side for cooperation in checking Director Yang's financial transactions."

"Understood!"

"Xiao Wang, contact a few deputy directors from the Tax Bureau and have them come over."

"Xiao Lu, find Director Yang's car and check if his wife has one. If so, see if there are any dash cams. If there are, take them out and bring them over."

Liang Jianfeng issued a series of instructions.

After the meeting.

Soon, three deputy directors from the Tax Bureau arrived at the precinct.

Suddenly receiving a call from the police, the three were quite surprised and somewhat apprehensive.

But upon careful thought, since the police hadn't come to arrest them but called them over, it probably wasn't a serious matter.

When they reached the place and entered the meeting room.

Seeing Liang Jianfeng there, all three deputy directors were startled.

"Director Liang."

"Gentlemen." Liang Jianfeng nodded and said, "I am now representing the Provincial Department to speak with you. The upcoming conversation must remain confidential!"

The three were stunned, the Provincial Department!

What kind of case were they involved in?

The three quickly nodded.

Liang Jianfeng said, "Yang Lang, along with his wife and child, died last night."

Holy crap!

The three were so shocked that they couldn't believe their ears.

Yang Lang was dead!

His wife and child were dead too!

How could this happen?

Liang Jianfeng observed their reactions and, after they calmed down slightly, asked, "In the past two weeks, was there anything unusual about Yang Lang?"

The three thought carefully, and one deputy director quickly said, "There did seem to be something different."

"During this time, Director Yang seemed to have some worries. He was always frowning, and his temperament changed a lot."

Because Director Yang's personality change was so significant, even though they hadn't interacted deeply in the past two weeks, it still impressed him.

The other two deputy directors also said, "You can definitely sense it."

"Also, Director Yang seemed very busy during this time."

"You could hardly see him during the day; he was always out."

"He canceled many meetings and didn't attend."

"There's more!" one deputy director said. "Director Yang took over my work."

Liang Jianfeng asked, "What department do you oversee?"

"Social insurance premiums and non-tax revenue section, taxpayer service section, and tax source management section."

Suddenly, a thought struck Liang Jianfeng, recalling what Song Guanchao had told him about Director Yang mentioning tax evasion on the phone last night.

Liang Jianfeng asked, "Who is in charge of imposing fines on companies at the Tax Bureau?"

The same deputy director replied, "If it's a small amount, I'm directly responsible. If the fine is substantial and has a significant impact, it needs to be discussed in a meeting."

Liang Jianfeng asked, "Has the Tax Bureau fined any companies in the past two weeks?"

"Yes."

"Which companies?"

"Uh..." The deputy director said, "It's hard to say offhand."

"Is there a problem?"

"Not a problem, but there are too many fined companies."

"Many? How many?"

"About a hundred or so."

"How many?"

Liang Jianfeng was surprised.

"It should be 177."

"I meant in the past two weeks, not the whole year."

"It is the number of fines in just over two weeks."

"..." Finally, Liang Jianfeng sensed something was wrong.

It seemed that Director Yang's death might be linked to this alarming number of fines!

"Were these companies proactively investigated by the Tax Bureau?"

"No, there were reports."

"But the reports were not directly made to the Tax Bureau; they were made to the Office of Civil Affairs."

The deputy director explained the background and the situation of the first reported company, Futong Company.

After listening, Liang Jianfeng already had a plan in mind.

"Please, Director Qian, go back and organize all the tax reports from the past month and send them over."

"Also, compile and send over the results of all these reports."

"Okay."

After the three left, Liang Jianfeng checked the time; it was only five in the afternoon.

He wanted to talk to Song Guanchao, wanting to ask him about some things, but it had only been less than two hours since he fell asleep.

Liang Jianfeng decided to wait a bit longer.

Let him have a good sleep first.

After all, there was no rush for now.

At seven in the evening.

Captain Shi called: "Director Liang, nothing was found after searching the Land God temple in Wanlin Town."

"Is there any surveillance nearby?"

"No."

"How far is the nearest surveillance to the Land God temple?"

"About two kilometers."

"Send two people to check, look at the surveillance from the past two weeks."

"Record all non-local license plates and vehicles valued at over 200,000 yuan and verify them one by one."

"Focus especially on vehicles before 7 AM and after 7 PM."

"Understood!"

"Continue searching around the Land God temple!"

"Director Liang, this Land God temple... calling it a temple is a bit much; it's just a mud hut, about a meter high with a clay idol inside. There's nothing there at first glance."

"Have you checked underground?"

"Underground?"

"Go find some locals and buy a few shovels, dig around the Land God temple area."
