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

Chapter 528 It's alright, just burn it and get a new one.

To be honest, Qin Chuan had already made sufficient predictions about the reaction from Aijia Supermarket.

So after arresting the person, Qin Chuan didn't send him to the police station, but directly to the detention center to keep him under surveillance first.

As for the ledger, Qin Chuan was even more reluctant to leave it anywhere else.

After the operation concluded this morning, he personally took the ledger back to his office and locked it in a drawer.

As the office of Tangtang, the deputy director of the Linzhou Public Security Bureau, there shouldn't be any problems, right?

However, to everyone's surprise, Qin Chuan only held a meeting for less than an hour, and the key witness died, and the physical evidence was also burned.

It's certain that Qin Chuan's arrest of Qian Youcai is a prelude to targeting Aijia Supermarket. Qin Chuan is well aware that the other party will take action once they learn of this.

Qin Chuan had considered what kind of leader the other party might ask to intervene and persuade him to let them off the hook.

Alternatively, one could cut off all information about Qian Youcai and draw a clear line between oneself and the other party.

Alternatively, they could control Qian Youcai's family members to threaten him, making him hesitant to act and force him to take full responsibility for all the crimes.

Qin Chuan had considered various contingency plans and anticipated that the other party might have various countermeasures, but he never expected that the other party would act so blatantly.

That's fucking arrogant.

Is this still the Linzhou Public Security Bureau? Who really controls this place?

"Director Qin, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I... I didn't mean to..."

The cleaning lady, trembling, apologized at the door of Qin Chuan's office.

The other members of the leadership team, including Director Zhang Tianyu, were also watching this scene from the corridor after their meeting.

At this moment, Zhang Tianyu's face was ashen, as black as the bottom of a pot.

Everyone saw the extent of the fire in Qin Chuan's office. Only the desk was searched; everything else was fine.

Rather than saying it was a fire, it's more accurate to say that someone deliberately set the desk on fire, and then, after everything inside burned out, simply stood next to it and used a fire extinguisher to put it out.

"That's unreasonable!"

Zhang Tianyu never imagined that the other party would be so arrogant.

Zhang Tianyu glanced at the cleaner and knew he was the arsonist, but he also knew that simply arresting the man wouldn't be of much use.

Since the other party dared to let this cleaner do the work, they must have done a very efficient job of finishing up, so that the cleaner might not even know what they burned.

The investigation eventually revealed that the other party had simply taken the money.

What angered Zhang Tianyu even more was the news that had just come from the detention center: a key witness that Qin Chuan had brought back this morning had died of a sudden heart attack inside.

This disease had no time to strike, but it happened less than an hour after the person was brought into the detention center, and the person died.

Zhang Tianyu knew that Aijia Supermarket was a powerful force in Linzhou City, but he didn't expect it to have infiltrated to such an extent.

People who were put in detention were killed without warning.

As for the so-called recurrence of heart disease, Zhang Tianyu doesn't believe a damn thing.

The other members of the class remained silent. These people had been working in the Linzhou Public Security Bureau for many years and knew more or less about the three major forces in Linzhou. Some of them were even very close to these forces.

Qin Chuan was a newcomer with a powerful background, and these people saw this very clearly.

As deputy directors of the same rank, they certainly wouldn't sabotage or offend each other, and they would definitely cooperate with whatever Qin Chuan needed.

But it's probably unlikely that they'll do anything on their own initiative.

The fact that Qin Chuan didn't notify anyone before directly using the armed police to arrest the people from Buckingham Palace, including Qian Youcai and others, illustrates one point: Qin Chuan doesn't trust them.

Of course, distrust is also correct; otherwise, news of Qin Chuan's intention to take action would have spread like wildfire long ago.

"Director Zhang, don't get angry. It's just a table that got burned. We'll just replace it with a new one later."

Zhang Tianyu was surprised that Qin Chuan was so calm.

Qin Chuan had already given Zhang Tianyu a brief report on the account book matter before the meeting, and he knew that it was crucial evidence that could bring down Aijia Supermarket Group.

And that's how it ended!
