158: You want me, the number one guy in the provincial capital, to rescue someone?

As Ye Lin passed by Gao Dawen, Gao Dawen grabbed him and said earnestly, "If you need to admit your mistake, admit it. If you need to reflect, reflect. It's not a big problem, don't be so stubborn."

Ye Lin felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this and smiled at Gao Dawen, saying, "Director Gao, I'll be back in a bit to continue working, don't worry."

Gao Dawen felt his eyes welling up a bit. This guy, he's still thinking of coming out to work in a bit. Is the Inspector that easy to deal with? Sigh.

As for Yu Haifeng, there was nothing he could do. The Provincial Level had pressured them, so he was suspended for his protection for now.

Ye Lin could only pray for good fortune.

The group left, leaving only a few members of the Criminal Police Team looking at each other. "Brother Zhao, us?"

Zhao Jianfeng, with a dark expression, reprimanded them, "You all do your own work. Didn't I give you the list yesterday? Did you contact them? Continue!"

"Oh." The young men meekly sat back down.

Although they had spoken passionately just now, when Gao Dawen stood there with the Inspector, the atmosphere instantly became much heavier, and everyone immediately dared not speak. Their previous brave words were suddenly swallowed back.

Zhao Jianfeng didn't blame them. Who hasn't been young? Grand declarations are easy, but to truly withstand the pressure from the leadership and erupt on the spot, that probably requires reaching his age.

Under Zhao Jianfeng's leadership, everyone in the Criminal Police Team returned to their respective posts.

At the same time, on the highway from the Provincial Capital to Yuezhou City, a black sedan was approaching Yuezhou City.

In the passenger seat, Secretary Zhang hung up the phone, turned his head, and said to the person in the back, "Leader, Ye Lin said he was invited to the Inspector Team by the Municipal Bureau."

In the back row, the person sitting in the car was Kang Dejun, the number one from the Provincial Level. He had been resting with his eyes closed, but upon hearing this, his mouth twitched. "He called you to tell you he's in the Inspector Team? Is he asking me to bail him out?"

Secretary Zhang gave a wry smile. This Young Master Ye was indeed not an ordinary person; his way of thinking was different from everyone else.

Previously, when Young Master Kang suggested that Secretary Kang come to support him, this kid actually wanted Secretary Kang to directly bail him out.

"Leader, should I call Secretary Jiang?" Secretary Zhang asked softly. Secretary Jiang referred to Jiang Jianyang, the number one in Yuezhou City. It would look too bad for Secretary Kang to bail him out. It would be better to have Secretary Jiang give the orders; it would look better on the surface.

"Call him. Tell him I'll be in Yuezhou City in an hour. As for bailing people out, sigh, I haven't done that in many years. My skills are probably rusty, it's time to practice, haha." Kang Dejun actually laughed happily.

Secretary Zhang was secretly astonished. Secretary Kang was so lenient with Ye Lin. This was not like the usual promotion an elder would give to a junior; he was treating him as one of his own.

"Are you surprised by my attitude towards Ye Lin?" Kang Dejun asked with a smile.

"Leader, it is a bit different." Secretary Zhang didn't dare to respond carelessly, unsure if the leader preferred 'Yes' or 'No,' so he could only agree.

"Actually, Shaojie told me recently that Fang Yaowei, Fang Weiguo's son, highly admires Ye Lin. Moreover, he and Ye Lin invested in a technology company together, putting a hundred million into basic research. This young man is not simple," Kang Dejun said with an appreciative tone.

Secretary Zhang knew that the Weiguo mentioned here referred to Fang Weiguo, the number two in the Provincial Level, and Yaowei was his son, Fang Yaowei, also known as Young Master Fang of the Provincial Capital.

"This Fang Yaowei, although a bit arrogant and domineering, his vision has always been good. Otherwise, Weiguo wouldn't have handed over the Fang Family's business to him."

"To be honest, I've been competing with Weiguo for several years, and I've never heard of Fang Yaowei submitting to anyone."

"For such a person, I don't mind breaking some of my own rules. And Ye Lin, though he seems unreliable, I always feel that he actually knows very well what he wants to do and has a certain persistence." Kang Dejun rarely spoke so much.

Secretary Zhang's expression remained a formal smile, but inwardly, he was experiencing a tempest.

Who was Kang Dejun? He was famous for adhering to rules. The Provincial Level sent him to Yue Province precisely to use his adherence to rules to rein in Fang Weiguo. Now, the person who most strictly followed rules was saying he wanted to break them, and for a young man at that. Secretary Zhang secretly made a mental note: he must not offend this Ye Lin.

"Alright, call Jianyang." After Kang Dejun finished his earlier monologue, his face returned to a serious expression, and he began to rest with his eyes closed.

Secretary Zhang quietly took out his phone and called Jiang Jianyang.

In the conference room of the Yuezhou City Committee, Jiang Jianyang was holding a meeting with the heads of district-level agencies, discussing economic development issues.

Suddenly, his Secretary walked in, looking very nervous.

Jiang Jianyang's expression changed. What could be so urgent that it couldn't wait until after his meeting?

The young Secretary also saw Jiang Jianyang's displeased face, but he dared not not go over.

He took small, quick steps to Jiang Jianyang's side and bent down. Although Jiang Jianyang's face was grim, he endured it and let the Secretary speak into his ear.

"Secretary, Secretary Kang will arrive in Yuezhou City in an hour," the Secretary said cautiously.

"What!" Jiang Jianyang looked at the Secretary in shock.

The Secretary reiterated with certainty, "Secretary Kang's Secretary called me. They are already on their way and will arrive in an hour. Secretary Kang asked me to inform you."

Jiang Jianyang's face darkened slightly, and he began to ponder. Someone in Secretary Kang's position wouldn't travel aimlessly, and arrangements would always be made in advance.

According to the Secretary's schedule issued by the Provincial Committee, Secretary Kang should have been in the Provincial Capital today. How could he suddenly say he would arrive in Yuezhou City in an hour?

One must know that the fastest route from the Provincial Capital to Yuezhou City takes over two hours, and that's driving fast. That meant Secretary Kang had suddenly decided to come to Yuezhou City mid-journey. This clearly indicated he was coming with a purpose, intending to catch Yuezhou City off guard. He wondered what rumors he had heard.

Jiang Jianyang's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze swept over the heads of the major departments below: market, tourism, ecology, education. What exactly did Secretary Kang want to see?

The heads below also looked at each other, wondering why the Secretary's expression had changed so drastically after receiving a message. He was the Mayor, what could be so important?

Unable to discern the reason, Jiang Jianyang snorted, and a wave of pressure instantly spread throughout the room. The heads all sat up straight, secretly turning off their phone screens. The boss was about to lose his temper.

"Secretary Kang of the Provincial Committee will arrive in Yuezhou City in an hour. I don't know what Secretary Kang is coming to see. I'm putting it out there: if anyone tries to cause trouble for me, don't blame me for being merciless." Jiang Jianyang's face was stern, a hint of gritted teeth in his voice.

It wasn't that he wanted to speak this way; it was simply that he had been tricked many times over the years. Every time, something happened below, and he had to clean up the mess, using all his persuasive words.
