Chapter Seventy-Two: The Darkness Has Passed, Dawn Is Near!
He Jun's email had been sent out for some time, and after being wildly forwarded, it was known by almost everyone in Beilan County Town. Naturally, this matter quickly caught the attention of Wang Guodong's faction, and a phone call was made to Zhou Guanghai's mobile.
At first, Zhou Guanghai couldn't believe it after listening, so he hurriedly asked someone to forward the email to him. After reading it, Zhou Guanghai was shocked and rushed to inform Wang Guodong.
When Zhou Guanghai arrived, Wang Guodong was sitting behind his desk playing with a pair of decorative walnuts that someone had given him recently. He saw Zhou Guanghai hurriedly push the door open without knocking. Wang Guodong's expression darkened; at his age, Zhou should know better than to barge in without knocking.
Just as Wang Guodong was about to scold him, Zhou Guanghai spoke first, saying, "Director, something serious has happened."
Wang Guodong's furrowed brows tightened even more as he looked at Zhou Guanghai with suspicion and dissatisfaction, asking, "What happened?" There had already been enough issues lately; he didn't want any more trouble.
"Director, take a look."
Zhou Guanghai didn't directly answer Wang Guodong's question but instead took out his iPad and handed it to him. The screen displayed the very email that people were frantically forwarding.
As Wang Guodong read the contents of the email, his face grew increasingly grim. The email detailed various misdeeds accumulated during his tenure as Police Chief Wang Guodong. More importantly, it even revealed scandalous details about Wang Guodong's affair with a woman.
Wang Guodong, whose clothes were soaked with cold sweat, looked at Zhou Guanghai and hurriedly asked, "How long has this email been circulating?"
Zhou Guanghai replied, "About four or five hours."
Wang Guodong sank back into his chair as he carefully recalled everything that had happened recently. First, his brother-in-law Liu Xiaolong had been arrested and now Liu Xiaofei was being held in detention. He had also appeared twice in the city's newspapers for negative news. And now this unbelievable email had surfaced.
If it were just one incident, Wang Guodong could consider it a coincidence. However, with so many events happening consecutively all pointing towards him, he couldn't believe there wasn't a mastermind behind it all. It seemed that the other party had prepared thoroughly; Wang Guodong vaguely felt that things were not as simple as he imagined. Everything happening did not seem like something He Jun could orchestrate alone. Could it be that there was a struggle going on above?
Thinking of that terrifying possibility made Wang Guodong break out in a cold sweat. After a long while, he weakly said, "Delete it; delete as much as you can. Also, investigate the IP address of the original email."
"Yes!" Zhou Guanghai replied and stepped out the door.
Zhou Guanghai hurried to the Technical Department, instructing his trusted aide to investigate the matter while he waited for the results. After a long time, a technician looked at Zhou Guanghai with a helpless expression and said, "Zhou Mi, the IP address has been hidden. Even our bureau's technical investigation methods can't resolve it."
Zhou Guanghai gazed at the computer screen and sighed deeply; things were becoming increasingly complicated.
The technician furrowed his brow, his fingers tapping away at the keyboard in a futile attempt. Suddenly, he looked up and asked, "Zhou Mi, what case is this?"
Zhou Guanghai glanced at him and replied, "Don't ask what you shouldn't."
Seeing Zhou Guanghai's grim expression, the technician obediently closed his mouth.
Leaving the Technical Department, Zhou Guanghai walked toward his office. As he walked, he thought that if Director Wang could pull through this time, everything would be fine. But if not... sigh, then his future would be ruined as well. How had things come to this point?
Zhou Guanghai felt utterly drained, devoid of the passion he once had for work.
A police officer passing by noticed Zhou Guanghai's appearance and asked with concern, "Zhou Mi, are you okay? You don't look well."
Zhou Guanghai forced a smile; he was fine. He then entered his office. Locking the door behind him, Zhou Guanghai sat down in his chair and completely relaxed. He began to ponder where his future would lie if that worst-case scenario truly came to pass.
While both Wang Guodong and Zhou Guanghai were consumed by anxiety, He Jun was not idle.
After sending out the email, He Jun gathered colleagues who had previously worked with him for a meeting and presented them with a copy of Youth Daily. Everyone who saw the newspaper wore expressions of joy; no one was foolish—if Wang Guodong fell, He Jun would undoubtedly seize power with his own capabilities. At that point, those who followed He Jun would also rise in prominence, suddenly becoming highly sought after after being ignored before.
Excitement aside, no one showed excessive joy before the final outcome was confirmed. Although their actions were not wrong, the means were not particularly honorable; it was better to remain low-key.
"Wang Hailong" praised from the side, "He Bureau, it's our turn to take charge this time, right?"
"He Jun" smiled and replied, "It all depends on what kind of director the higher-ups send us."
Li stood up from his chair and said boldly, "No matter who is sent here, if they dare not to value He Bureau, we will isolate them."
He Jun's expression changed, and he shouted, "Nonsense! How can we do that? We are all party members and must have awareness; we cannot create factions."
Seeing the atmosphere become serious, He Jun quickly added with a smile, "Li's words touch me. We won't create factions. In the future, I still need the help of all my colleagues. Together, let's make Beilan County a model county for public security!"
As He Jun finished speaking, warm applause filled the room. He extended his hand, and soon several strong hands stacked together.
Although this incident happened suddenly, it was all under He Jun's control. Many things had been prepared long ago. For example, the various misdeeds of Wang Guodong had been recorded for a long time, just waiting for the moment of reckoning. He Jun also had to thank his nephew who was in high school for inadvertently creating this opportunity; this nephew truly was his lucky star.
Looking at his united and spirited colleagues, He Jun could hardly contain his excitement. Since graduating from Public Security University, he had aspired to be an excellent People's Police officer and bring prosperity and stability to his jurisdiction. However, once he started working, he realized that doing practical things was fraught with obstacles. After diligently working for over twenty years, he had only risen to the position of deputy director, while Wang Guodong had advanced faster than anyone else by forming cliques.
But now everything was different; the darkness had passed, and dawn was just ahead!
