Chapter 1043: Chapter 1043: The Sidelined Director

Kong Shenghui sat there and saw that no one was speaking, so he glanced around and said, "If anyone has any suggestions or opinions, feel free to speak up. Director Li, you were at the scene at that time, can you describe the situation?"

Li Kui, hearing his name, raised his head and shook it, saying, "Although I was at the scene, I wasn’t inside, so I don’t know what happened inside."

At that time, Li Kui was too scared to think straight, so naturally, he didn’t notice the situation.

Kong Shenghui then looked at Gao Zhitao.

Gao Zhitao stood up straight, with a serious face, and said, "I just participated in the rescue and observed the situation on the scene in detail, as well as the explosion point inside. I discovered a problem..."

Gao Zhitao clearly explained the problem he discovered at that time and his suspicions, emphasizing that this was an organized and premeditated bombing attack, and the issue was very serious.

Li Kui and Gao Zhitao’s speeches formed a stark contrast.

Kong Shenghui and the others could tell the difference in their abilities, but they couldn’t do anything about it, as Li Kui had been transferred by the Provincial Committee, and they couldn’t arbitrarily dismiss him.

Through the analysis of the situation, they concluded that this bombing case was indeed a terrorist attack.

"Now I announce the establishment of a special task force with Comrade Gao Zhitao as the team leader, all police forces in the city will be under the command of the team leader..." Kong Shenghui said very seriously.

"I object," Li Kui suddenly said.

A few people looked at Li Kui with some displeasure, but they could only turn a blind eye.

"Director Gao is currently on vacation, it’s inappropriate for him to be the team leader, isn’t it?" Li Kui said sarcastically.

With Qi Shengli supporting him from behind, Li Kui didn’t even hold Kong Shenghui in regard.

"If he’s not suitable, are you?" Kong Shenghui asked angrily.

Li Kui nodded without hesitation, "I am the most suitable to be the team leader."

Those standing there were speechless, having never seen such shamelessness before.

With Li Kui’s capabilities, even if the task was given to him, he definitely wouldn’t handle it well.

This issue is too significant to be taken lightly.

"Gao Zhitao, do you have any issue being the team leader?" Kong Shenghui ignored Li Kui and looked directly at Gao Zhitao.

Gao Zhitao straightened his chest seriously and said, "No problem."

"Good, you have one week to solve the case and catch the culprit," Kong Shenghui said.

"I guarantee to complete it," Gao Zhitao said sternly.

For the Falcon Organization, they had been preparing for a long time, and if they couldn’t catch them within a week, Gao Zhitao would no longer have any face to speak of as the director.

Li Kui sat there, his face ashen with anger, as no one around him paid any attention to him.

Even though he was the director in name, no one respected him, making him an empty shell.

"Let’s act quickly now." After saying this, Kong Shenghui was the first to stand up and walk out.

The others followed suit, leaving Li Kui alone, gnashing his teeth in anger.

Now that Gao Zhitao was appointed as the team leader, he regained control of the police station and quickly mobilized police forces to start deploying for the task.

Initially, Sanying had already controlled the entire city, and with the addition of these police officers, the entire city was even more secure.

But currently, the issue was that after the perpetrators had staged a bombing, they seemed to have vanished, leaving no clues.

Just as it was approaching eight in the evening, another big explosion occurred in the southern suburbs of the city.

This time it was a chemical plant that exploded, causing severe damage.

The explosion once again rattled Xiang Yu’s nerves, worried that if they couldn’t track these people down soon, who knows what might happen.

"Xiang Yu, what should we do? We’ve searched every corner of the city, but there’s no information on them," Gao Zhitao was a bit anxious.

On the first day alone, two explosions had occurred, indicating an alarming audacity.

"Don’t lose your composure, ensure the safety of places with high foot traffic," Xiang Yu said seriously.

Xiang Yu was also a bit tense, fearing any oversight on their part might cause irreparable damage, considering the reckless and shameless nature of the Falcon Organization.

"Got it," Gao Zhitao said before hanging up the phone. noveldrama

Now with the police force under Gao Zhitao’s direct command, he had them all stationed at malls and other high-traffic areas.

Although Li Kui was the director now, he was already rendered powerless and felt very frustrated, contemplating complaining to Qi Shengli.

Feeling disrespected by Kong Shenghui was tantamount to disrespecting Qi Shengli, as he was appointed from above.

However, thinking if he couldn’t handle this little issue, he might be looked down upon by Qi Shengli.

How could he continue to be in Qi Shengli’s good books in the future?

Thinking of this, he gave up the idea of complaining. As he sat there, the phone suddenly rang.

"Who is it? What do you want?" Li Kui, in a bad mood, answered impatiently upon seeing it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, Director Li." A person on the other end spoke in standard Mandarin, with a teasing tone.

"Who are you?" Li Kui felt something was off with the tone and asked seriously.

"Who I am isn’t important, what’s important is, I can give you a chance to make a fortune," the person said.

"Cut the nonsense, who exactly are you?" Li Kui wasn’t a fool, knowing there’s no such thing as a free lunch.

"Fifty million, just help me with one thing, and I’ll transfer the money to you right away," the person said.

Originally, Li Kui was calm, but fifty million hit him right in the heart, leaving him speechless for a moment.

The other party was extraordinarily generous, starting off with fifty million.

Li Kui had never seen so much money, and while he held a significant position before, he never had actual power. Now that he finally had real power as director, he was being sidelined. This was a blow to him.

However, Li Kui wasn’t simple-minded. Since the other party offered fifty million, there must be something they needed his help with.

"What do you need?" Li Kui asked.

The other party laughed a bit as if they noticed Li Kui’s love for money.

"Your men are currently stationed at the entrances of malls, just have them moved away, and all the money will be yours," the person said.

Upon hearing this, Li Kui understood; these were terrorists trying to bribe him with money.

"So, it’s you," Li Kui said calmly.

He needed to stay calm, as he felt he was standing at a crossroads and a wrong step would lead to ruin. Thus, he must be extremely cautious...
