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

Chapter 281 Huang Zhen's Request to Solve the Case Within a Time Limit

The murder of a deputy director of the Xi'an High-tech Zone Education Bureau and his entire family quickly caused a huge uproar in Xi'an.

When Qin Chuan and others arrived at the scene to conduct an investigation, the municipal party committee leaders had already received the news.

It was quite a coincidence that the municipal party committee leadership was holding an enlarged meeting of its standing committee this morning.

During the break, Secretary Guo Liangsong reported this matter to Secretary Huang Zhen.

While Secretary Huang Zhen was learning the news, other members of the municipal party committee leadership team and heads of key departments also became aware of the matter.

Then, the atmosphere of the normally normal expanded meeting of the Standing Committee suddenly changed.

Police Chief Zhao Donglai suddenly became the main force.

As a member of the Standing Committee, Zhao Donglai was only added after the expanded meeting; he was not originally a member of the Standing Committee.

Of course, nothing major happened at this expanded meeting; it was just a concentrated study session.

Zhao Donglai also received the news.

However, he is not very clear about the details of the case at present, and can be said to know nothing about it. He only knows that the deputy director of the High-tech Zone Education Bureau and his family of three were murdered, but he does not know how they were killed, when they were killed, why they were killed, or what clues the suspect left behind.

The second half of the meeting originally had an hour and a half of agenda, but Secretary Huang Zhen shortened it to half an hour and then called Zhao Donglai to his office.

"What's the progress over there?"

Zhao Donglai knew absolutely nothing about the progress, but if the top leader of the municipal party committee asked him, he would definitely have to speak.

"Wang Bingyi and his family of three were murdered. Wang Bingyi was the deputy director of the High-tech Zone Education Bureau. The High-tech Zone Branch is currently conducting a full investigation."

"I haven't had time to find out the specifics yet. I'll organize the information when I get back and report to you by phone."

High-tech Zone Branch?

"Where is Qin Chuan?"

Zhao Donglai specifically mentioned the High-tech Zone Branch.

The position of branch director of the Qinchuan District High-tech Zone Branch was personally appointed by Secretary Huang Zhen.

So Zhao Donglai brought up that area because he wanted Qin Chuan to share some of the pressure, otherwise it would be difficult to handle if Secretary Huang Zhen set a deadline for solving the case.

Sure enough, when the High-tech Zone Branch was mentioned, Secretary Huang Zhen thought of Qin Chuan.

"Yes, this morning before the expanded meeting of the Standing Committee, I went with the political commissar to announce the appointments."

Zhao Donglai quickly reported: "As a result, such a big case has occurred in just half a day."

"Qin Chuan is new here and not very familiar with the situation at the High-tech Zone Branch."

"Solving this case is...very difficult."

Big?

Huang Zhen was well aware of Zhao Donglai's ulterior motives.

However, Qin Chuan's situation is indeed special. Huang Zhen had given this appointment to Qin Chuan a lot of thought.

Regardless of Qin Chuan's background, his performance in Ping'an County was absolutely remarkable. He achieved the greatest results in the shortest amount of time, turning around the security situation in Ping'an County in one fell swoop.

If Qin Chuan weren't so young and hadn't been on the job for so short a time, Huang Zhen would have wanted to get him appointed as the deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

"I still have faith in Qin Chuan's abilities. Didn't he catch a wanted criminal in Ping'an County before?"

Qin Chuan's work in Ping'an County wasn't limited to Li Longfei's case; he also apprehended the suspect in a bank robbery case that the provincial party committee was paying special attention to at the time.

For this reason, Vice Governor Yang Jinguo personally went to Ping'an County.

No one else in the entire Xing'an City Public Security Bureau has ever received this honor.

"Although Qin Chuan has just arrived, these cases are a test for him. If he handles the case well, he will be able to establish himself in the High-tech Zone Branch."

Huang Zhen also had another consideration.

When his secretary, Guo Liang, reported to him, he was told that provincial leaders had already taken notice of the matter.

Linjiang Province is currently in the initial stage of its campaign against organized crime. Whether it can move forward in depth and achieve phased results depends on whether the counterattacks of organized crime can be effectively curbed during this period.

The achievements of Zhulin County and Ping'an County in the fight against organized crime are exceptionally remarkable.

Both counties are under the jurisdiction of Xi'an City, and the province-wide campaign against organized crime has achieved the greatest results in Xi'an City.

Huang Zhen's intention in transferring Qin Chuan so quickly from Ping'an County to the city was to take advantage of this momentum and seize Song Changfeng in one fell swoop.

However, at such a critical moment, a family was wiped out. If this case cannot be solved, how can we deal with Song Changfeng? Even if we do deal with Song Changfeng, if the case remains unsolved, the results of Xing'an City's campaign against organized crime will be greatly diminished.

With this in mind, Huang Zhen made up his mind.

"Zhao Donglai, tell Qin Chuan what I said and that he must solve this case within 10 days."

Huang Zhen thought for a moment and then said, "Tell him that if he solves the case within 10 days, I'll give him a big commendation; if he can't solve the case within 10 days..."

"I'll have him manage the traffic police!"

Zhao Donglai sighed.

Huang Zhen's order to solve the case in 10 days was given to Qin Chuan, but wasn't it also a form of pressure on the Public Security Bureau?

Of course, even if the case remains unsolved, the current implication is that Qin Chuan will take the blame, and it has little to do with him as the bureau chief.

But this isn't a big deal; it's just about avoiding blame, but it's embarrassing.
