My wife is the queen

  Liu Heng hung up the phone with a mixture of fear and trepidation, then straightened his back, as if holding a Shangfang treasure sword, coldly staring at Zhang Duo: "Zhang Duo! You heard everything, Captain Lin has been temporarily suspended from duty, she has no authority to assign you anything!"

  That phone call just now was loud and clear, everyone in the room heard it, even an idiot would know that Liu He absolutely wouldn't dare to joke about this kind of thing.

  The provincial party committee personally called to stop Lin Ling's job, and the significance represented here is more obvious.

  Of course, Zhang Duo can also say 'the captain's suspension has nothing to do with me', 'I only uphold justice, I don't need the captain to assign me'. This way he can still continue doing what he is doing. But he is not a fool, when the provincial party committee calls and suspends Lin Ling, isn't it because Lin Ling was trying to protect Qin Yan?

  It can be confirmed that if he continues to hold on, the next one to be suspended will be him. The provincial party committee is just trying to prevent Lin Ling's department from intervening.

  Zhang Duo left with his subordinates.

  Before leaving, he helplessly glanced at Qin Yan, not that he didn't want to help, but because the situation had developed to this point, he was already powerless.

  With Zhang Dang's departure, the originally deadlocked situation was finally cleared up.

  "Is he the brutal thug who beats people?"

  Liu He's gaze swept across the interrogation room, his eyes locking onto Qin Yan. Turning to the police captain who had been in charge of the questioning, he instructed, "I don't care what methods you use, just make sure that the law is upheld fairly and justly. We can't wrong an innocent person, but we also absolutely cannot let a guilty person go free. Do I make myself clear?"

  We cannot wrong a good person, but we also absolutely cannot let off a bad person.

  The first half of the sentence was directly ignored by the police officer, and this remark sounded grandiose. Anyone present who wasn't a fool could hear Liu He's meaning - Qin Yan was done for!

  Do you want to torture Laozi?

  Want to frame me?

  Qin Yan's heart was filled with a strong desire to kill, but due to his identity, he had to keep a low profile and not reveal himself. However, if someone were to provoke him intentionally, he would never hold back and swallow his anger.

  "Director Liu is right, we can't wrong a good person, but we also absolutely cannot let off a bad one."

  Just as Qin Yan made up his mind to take action, an untimely voice rang out. Wu Changguo, the director of the Public Security Bureau, who had been absent all along, appeared at this critical moment.

  He deliberately emphasized the word "vice" in front of "Director Liu", which was equivalent to telling everyone: You are just a vice director, I am the boss here, and what I say goes.

  "Director, why have you come now?"

  Liu He pretended to be anxious, but in his heart he was secretly resentful. Moreover, Wu Changguo's stubborn insistence on the word 'vice' made him even more displeased, so his tone was somewhat ambiguous.

  "Sorry, I just received a call from the mayor. The nature of this case is too heinous and has too great an impact, even the mayor was shocked."

  "Ah! Does the mayor know too?"

  Two people are acting, making it seem real, but in Qin Yan's eyes, he vaguely guessed some clues, and the situation has indeed developed to another level.

  At first, the police officer was preparing to use torture because Vice Mayor Han Baichuan wanted revenge. Later, Lin Ling used the criminal police team to take action in order to protect Qin Yan, or rather, he did not want Qin Yan to kill someone in the public security bureau. All of this was just personal grudges and grievances.

  As for the provincial party committee calling to stop Lin Ling's job, Qin Yan didn't quite understand the reason behind it, but with Wu Changguo's appearance, the nature of things has changed.

  To put it bluntly, Wu Changguo didn't show up earlier because he wanted to use Lin Ling's power to fight against Liu He. He vaguely knew that Lin Ling had a remarkable background. However, the provincial party committee suspended Lin Ling's position, which was equivalent to telling him: Lin Ling cannot be a pawn in your factional struggle, you have to fight among yourselves, and if you dare to use Lin Ling as a pawn again, don't blame me for being impolite!

  In this case, he can no longer hide.

  That's right!

  Things have developed to this point, Qin Yan is no longer important, and no one cares who he is. What's next is the confrontation between the two factions in Pingjiang City!

  Qin Yan was just the fuse that triggered this factional struggle, but Qin Yan still had one thing he couldn't understand: through this small case, two factions fought to the death, what benefits could they gain from it? These people were all goods that wouldn't get up early without profit, no benefit and they wouldn't take action.

  It can now be seen that Wu Changguo belongs to the faction of Mayor Jiang Qinyi, while Liu He belongs to the faction of Vice Mayor Han Baichuan.

  If divided as above, Han Baiquan's factional power is too weak and can't compete with Jiang Qinwei. Usually, a local bureaucratic system has only two factions. When the strength of the factions is completely unequal, it means that the weaker faction has another extraordinary figure behind it.

  The figures who can match the mayor are only two: either the municipal party committee secretary or the vice mayor.

  Both parties involved in the lawsuit are very clear about the process of the case.

  If tried fairly and justly, Qin Yan would at most be convicted of excessive self-defense, a result that neither of the two major factions wants to see.

  Han Baichuan would be delighted if Qin Yan died without a place to bury him, and the trivial charge of excessive self-defense was not enough. Similarly, as the opposing faction's Mayor Jiang Qiongwei's camp, in order to win this struggle, they must make Qin Yan not even have a charge of excessive self-defense, but instead turn Han Junrui into the perpetrator and thoroughly nail him down.

  This is a struggle for power and factions, who the parties are is unimportant, what matters is the final verdict of this case.

  I knew it!

  Just as Wu Changguo finished speaking, Liu He threw out a killer move: "Hehe... Director Wu is right, since the mayor has already asked about it, we must handle it seriously and not be lenient. I also received a call from Secretary Wang earlier, and he emphasized that the thugs who beat people up must be severely punished."

  Two underlings of the two factions stood in front of the torture chamber door, dueling with each other. The large door of the torture chamber had been kicked open by Zhang Duan earlier, so Qin Yan saw the entire duel process.

  As expected, Liu He's faction leader was not Han Baichuan, but the real boss of Pingjiang City - the Municipal Party Secretary!

  It seems that Mayor Jiang Qiongwei's faction is actually weaker in comparison.

  It seems like... in the end, we'll have to fight after all.

  Qin Yan thought to himself, just as he had this idea, the two sides outside the door who were engaged in a fierce battle suddenly looked at each other with suspicious and disbelieving expressions, as if they had seen something unbelievable.

  "Mayor Kong, how did you come?" Wu Changguo and Liu He said the same words.

  "Why can't I come?"

  A man wearing a neat shirt walked up to the door of the interrogation room, the man looked nearly fifty years old, and his height was just over 1.7 meters.

  His appearance and temperament give people a very ordinary feeling, but when they see this man with their own eyes, they always feel that there is something special about him.

  The Pingjiang Municipal Committee is divided into two major factions, one led by the mayor and the other led by the municipal party secretary.

  This man's surname is Kong, and judging from Wu Changgui and Liu He's attitude, they all seem very surprised. What does this imply?

  Qin Yansi's mind suddenly turned, and he thought of a person who was often mentioned in the local news when he occasionally read it - Executive Vice Mayor Kong Haidong.

  His appearance made people from both factions show a very surprised look, and there was only one reason for this, that is, he didn't belong to any faction!

  Kong Haodong's appearance was unexpected by everyone, just as Qin Yan had speculated. Among the two major factions in Pingjiang City, with Mayor Jiang Qinfu at the helm, one faction was slightly weaker. Of course, this gap wasn't very large, but if the Executive Vice Mayor, who ranked second only to the Mayor and Municipal Party Secretary, chose to take sides in this struggle, whichever side he stood on would put immense pressure on the other side, making their chances of winning almost zero.

  Just think about it, a person who can influence the outcome of two major factions, how could his appearance not make both sides overly nervous?

  He might be the straw that breaks one of their backs!

  "I know what's going on with you guys, and I don't want to get involved either."

  Kong Haodong looked at the two of them and said in a low voice, "I only hope that the police will fairly and justly handle this case, and won't sacrifice an innocent person for personal gain!"

  Awesome!

  At this moment, Wu Changguo and Liu He only wanted to say one word to Kong Haodong. One faction wanted to nail Qin Yan to death, while the other faction wanted to protect Qin Yan and nail Han Junrui to death.

  He's really something, he thinks that by not helping either side, but the result of not helping either side is to offend both parties. Is this guy out of his mind?

  He doesn't belong to any faction. Even as a vice mayor, he can't exert much energy in this small place of Pingjiang.

  He has managed to offend both sides at once, this old guy really has a big nerve!

  Of course, what one thinks in their heart is one thing, but as the vice mayor, Wu Changguo and Liu He did not dare to say anything on the surface.

  "Can I have a moment to say a few words to the person involved?" Kong Haodong asked.

  "This...," Liu He hesitated.

  "Mayor Kong, after you."

  Taking advantage of Liu He's momentary distraction, Wu Changguo took the opportunity to curry favor with him. By the time Liu He realized his mistake, Kong Haichuan had already entered the interrogation room and closed the door behind him.

  The door of the interrogation room was tightly closed, and there were only two people inside, Qin Yan and Kong Haidong.

  "Are you Qin Yan?" Kong Haichuan asked.

  "Yes."

  "I thank you on behalf of all the people in the city."

  Kong Haodong stood opposite Qin Yan, bowing deeply: "Rest assured, I won't favor either side. As long as you haven't broken the law, no one can do anything to you!"

  Qin Yan, who was sitting on the chair with an air of complacency, was startled by his own action: What is this guy doing, bowing to himself? Saying something about thanking himself on behalf of the people of Pingjiang City?

  "I didn't understand what you just said." Qin Yan was indeed confused.

  "Municipal People's Hospital." Kong Haichuan only said five words.

  "What did you say?"

  Just now Qin Yan looked ordinary, but suddenly his eyebrows furrowed, and a fierce killing intent burst out of his body, staring tightly at Kong Haichuan.

  Kong Haodong was startled, the kind of murderous aura that seemed to have a physical presence made him feel like his heart was racing and his flesh was trembling. After all, he was just an ordinary person who had never seen the powerful killing intent of a martial artist before?

  But contrary to Qin Yan's expectations, he quickly calmed down and said in a low voice: "The top has suppressed the case, but I never gave up investigating. Of course, I don't have any effective evidence, just speculating through Lin Ling's actions and your relationship with her."
