The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

Chapter 635 The Whistleblower Clues about Yuanfang Financial Group

Qin Chuan quickly learned the details of the tip-off: the informant had contacted Zhang Xiaofeng to report that his daughter had been sold five years ago.

"Director Qin, you must help me! I saw notices these past two days soliciting clues about two criminal gangs, Aijia Supermarket Group and Tiantang Entertainment Group."

Zhang Xiaofeng was in the police station with snot running down his face and tears streaming down his face.

“Five years ago, I borrowed 300,000 yuan from a financial company under the Yuanfang Financial Group for business operations. I was supposed to pay it back in two months, but when I did, they raised the amount from 300,000 yuan to 800,000 yuan!”

“Where am I supposed to get 80 yuan? We agreed that it would be 30 yuan for two months with 5 yuan in interest. Although the interest was a bit high, I thought that once my business was running smoothly, it would be able to recover. I could make a lot of money from one order and pay back the loan. But they insist on me paying back 80 yuan after two months. Even if I sell all my houses and ruin my business, I still can't generate that much cash.”

"It turned out that the man surnamed Zhao was one of their henchmen, named Zhao Tianlai. He said that since we were going to settle the debt, we would use my daughter as collateral. My daughter disappeared the next day and we still haven't found her."

Zhang Xiaofeng is 43 years old this year, but he looks like he is in his fifties or sixties, and is extremely old.

The police station chief standing nearby sighed.

"Director Qin, he reported his daughter's disappearance to us five years ago. We investigated for about two or three months and kept following up on the case, but there was no progress. His daughter seemed to have vanished into thin air."

Qin Chuan knew the director of Qingnian Road Police Station quite well. He was 52 years old this year, had no children, and had never been married. He had been alone for many years. He was an orphan raised by the state. After growing up, he became a policeman and worked as a policeman in Qingnian Road until he rose to the position of director.

If we're talking about the most honest police chief in the entire Linzhou Public Security Bureau, it would probably be the chief of the Qingnian Road Police Station. Apart from keeping a small portion of his salary, he donates the vast majority of his other salary. He basically doesn't own any clothes; he wears only the uniforms issued by the police station.

When he saw the other person, he used his Eye of Sin to take a look and found that the other person's sin value was zero. In other words, this young police chief of the Lu Police Station had never done anything bad from childhood to adulthood.

So if the other party said that he didn't take this case 5 years ago, and that he sent people to investigate it carefully for a period of time, but found no clues, then there really are no clues.

The Qingnian Road Police Station had originally reported the case to higher authorities, but at that time, it involved all the people in Yuanfang Financial Group, and they were all backing out. The station chief searched high and low but couldn't find anyone to take charge of the matter.

They had almost given up, but unexpectedly, Qin Chuan appeared out of nowhere and was appointed as the deputy director of the Linzhou Public Security Bureau, in charge of the special campaign against organized crime.

To be honest, this period has probably been the most enjoyable time for most of the police officers in Linzhou Public Security Bureau.

Personnel cases that were previously impossible to handle, impossible to close, and impossible to arrest are now all proceeding smoothly.

No one greets you anymore, no one delays you for various reasons or things, no one offers money or gifts through connections, and all sorts of messy things disappear.

The higher-ups all looked righteous, and in various meetings they were all about vigorously promoting social order and cracking down on organized crime. I don't know how many small gangs and shady groups I dismantled during that period.

Of course, at the same time, some corrupt police officers who extorted money and bribes, as well as some protectors who colluded with organized crime, were also taken down.

It can be said that although Qin Chuan has not been in Linzhou for long, during his time working at the Linzhou Public Security Bureau, he has brought about a significant change in the work style of the entire bureau.

For some, the transition is passive; for others, it's a return from a marginalized state to a normal working state.

The vast majority of people who can become police officers are good people and have received proper education; only a very small minority are actually corrupted and preyed upon.

However, a very small number of people sat in key positions, while most police officers dared not speak out against their anger.

Now look what's happened. In less than a month since Qin Chuan arrived, five people from the four leading bodies of the municipal party committee have been purged.

What else are they afraid of?
