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

Chapter 797 Minister Zhang, there's really no other way.

He instructed others to deliberately cause a traffic accident, intending to kill someone, and nearly caused one death and seriously injured another.

This is a serious criminal case!

After the incident, Qin Chuan immediately directed Deputy Director Chen Jianguo to personally oversee the matter and gave him clear instructions: this case must be investigated and dealt with seriously, and no matter who calls him, it will be useless; he should come directly to Qin Chuan.

Meanwhile, Qin Chuan also mobilized the special task force led by Chen Gang, and these people have been busy during this period.

The smuggling cases that were dealt with some time ago have basically come to an end, and all the relevant personnel have been arrested. The remaining cases have been handed over to the local branch bureaus for handling.

Furthermore, the dismantling of the drug trafficking networks of the three major drug lords was carried out by the anti-narcotics squad. Chen Gang's task force mainly provided information support.

Therefore, the special task force, which had almost finished its work over the past few months, has actually spent the last month or so fully collecting evidence of the crimes committed by the Sihai Group.

Tang Haorui reported some problems with Tang Haobing's businesses, and although none of these problems were ultimately resolved, or rather, Cao Cao used his connections to smooth things over, these problems did indeed exist.

Chen Gang and his special task force conducted in-depth investigations into these identified problems and extracted numerous clues related to criminal cases.

In addition, Tang Haorui already possessed evidence of Tang Haobing's intentional injury to others, and with this additional clue, even if Tang Haobing had three heads and six arms, he couldn't escape the police station.

On the very night Tang Haobing was arrested, Qin Chuan received a phone call from Deputy Minister Zhang of the Municipal Party Committee's Organization Department.

"Director Qin, I don't come here unless I have a reason. There's something I need to discuss and report to you today."

Vice Minister Zhang, who made the call, adopted a very humble attitude, addressing Qin Chuan with respectful terms and using the word "report".

Qin Chuan sneered inwardly, but remained outwardly calm: "Vice Minister Zhang, you're being too polite. Forget about reports, just give me the instructions. Tell me what you need and I'll do it."

"Haha, I'm relieved to hear that. It's like this, someone just called me and said that Tang Haobing has been arrested by our Public Security Bureau?"

Qin Chuan nodded: "That's true. They were arrested not long ago and are currently being interrogated. The one who reported it was his younger brother, Tang Haorui. This time, the other party went too far, actually instructing his confidant to try to kill Tang Haorui through a traffic accident. This involves intentional homicide, although it was an attempted murder. But Tang Haorui has already been seriously injured, and his driver is currently in a coma and still in the ICU."

Vice Minister Zhang on the other end of the phone was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected things to be so complicated and serious.

"So this is how serious it is, Director Qin. My superiors asked me to inquire whether it's possible to release Tang Haobing on bail. We'll investigate and prosecute as necessary, but could we perhaps put this matter on hold for a while?"

Qin Chuan naturally shook his head.

He had set up the scheme for so long, watched the spectacle for so long, and finally managed to arrest Tang Haobing. Now that he had solid evidence in his hands, how could he possibly stop until he had completely destroyed the other party?

“Minister Zhang, if it were anything else, I would release the person without hesitation. Not to mention bail, I could just release him and put the case on hold. But the key issue is that the person who reported the case is Tang Haobing’s younger brother, Tang Haorui. We are well aware of the power struggle between these two over the inheritance of the Sihai Group.”

“During that period, some of Tang Haobing’s businesses, including the hotels under Tang Haorui, were reported. The Public Security Bureau responded to the reports quite a few times. No matter who made the call, I didn’t say a word.”

"But now it's Tang Haorui himself who filed the report, and it's his own safety that's been seriously threatened. If Tang Haobing releases him... what will happen to Tang Haorui?"

"And brother, I'm not saying this lightly, but I think this struggle is probably coming to an end now. Tang Haobing is just a trusted aide who staged a traffic accident to kill Tang Haorui. The evidence is firmly in their hands. Before we even made the arrest, they sent us the recording of Tang Haobing instructing his men to kill Tang Haorui. That's solid evidence, it's irrefutable proof. If we don't investigate, and Tang Haorui ends up reporting this to his superiors, what about me, the police chief?"

Vice Minister Zhang never expected that things had become so serious.

"Director Qin, I understand this matter, and I will report it to the leadership truthfully. The struggle for Sihai Group may have come to an end here. As for related matters, my suggestion is that we handle them officially. This Tang Haobing has gone too far. He actually sent someone to run over and kill his own younger brother in broad daylight. He's simply a beast. Don't worry, I and the relevant leaders will definitely stand by your side in this matter."

Expressing your opinion doesn't cost any money.

After hanging up, Qin Chuan received several more calls. In fact, these were all relationships maintained by Tang Haobing. Qin Chuan was well aware that he had received no less than a dozen similar calls in the past month.

Tang Haobing is now suspected of intentional homicide. Although it was an attempted murder, the evidence is conclusive, and other criminal evidence has been handed over to the police by Tang Haorui.

In this way, Qin Chuan kept everyone who wanted to see Tang Haobing out. He and Chen Jianguo were passing the buck: those who wanted to see Chen Jianguo were told to consult Qin Chuan; those who wanted to see Qin Chuan were told to tell Chen Jianguo, "I've already called him."

This also allowed Tang Haobing to undergo a very formal interrogation inside. Faced with one piece of evidence after another, Tang Haobing had no choice but to confess.

three days later.

Chen Jianguo has already drafted a report on Tang Haobing's alleged leadership of a criminal organization and submitted it to Qin Chuan for investigation of the entire Sihai Group.

"Arrest them immediately!"

Qin Chuan didn't care about this report. The reason for having such a thing was to make outsiders think that it was reported from the interrogation below and had nothing to do with him, Qin Chuan.

As for the people Tang Haobing had confessed to in the past few days, Qin Chuan had only one attitude: arrest them immediately, interrogate them, and then deal with them.

As for who else gets involved and how deep the involvement goes, that's none of Qin Chuan's business.

Tang Haorui will naturally have the choice.

Tang Haorui cannot use the connections that led to Tang Haobing's downfall. This was something Qin Chuan and the other party had agreed upon long ago; otherwise, Qin Chuan could have arrested Tang Haorui in no time. While the things he committed abroad might not be punishable domestically, he could be sent abroad.

Qin Chuan was able to cooperate with Tang Haorui in order to ensure that Tang would not commit any crimes in China.

Qin Chuan's goal was to completely eradicate the cancerous growth within the Sihai Group.
