366: Chapter 366 You've Already Had the Opportunity

Provincial Public Security Department.

Inside the office, Director Du Qingbo was drinking tea and chatting with the Executive Deputy Director.

The Executive Deputy Director said with some concern, "Director Du, you really released Wang Shanshan. If Comrade Qin Chuan finds out, it might be a bit difficult to explain."

Director Du Qingbo said helplessly, "Secretary Wang called again this morning. Besides, once the 24-hour time limit is up, what else can I do?"

Director Du Qingbo had now thought it through; Secretary Wang Kaiming could not be offended, as he was, after all, a member of the Provincial Party Standing Committee.

As for Qin Chuan, they would cross that bridge when they came to it.

If he found out that he had released Wang Shanshan, he would at most lose his temper and express some dissatisfaction. What else could he do?

Besides, in a day or two at most, Qin Chuan would be returning to the capital.

The Executive Deputy Director said, "However, this Wang Shanshan is truly scum. If it weren't for having a good father, she would have been inside sewing mailbags long ago."

Director Du Qingbo said, "Watch your words, watch your words. If those words reach Secretary Wang, it won't be good."

The Executive Deputy Director gave a bitter smile.

He was very clear that Director Du Qingbo's mindset had changed. Previously, he had held the mentality of wanting to befriend Qin Chuan, but now, seeing that he had to choose one of the two, he had made his choice and started to lean towards Secretary Wang Kaiming.

A moment later, Director Du Qingbo's phone rang urgently.

It was a call from Wei Xinglong, who briefly reported the incident where Qin Chuan was shot at on the street.

Suddenly, Director Du Qingbo was struck by lightning!

As the Director of the Provincial Public Security Department, he knew the nature of a shooting occurring in a busy downtown area in broad daylight. Furthermore, the target of the shooting was the Deputy Party Secretary of the Criminal Investigation Bureau.

It's over, it's over!

Things have become serious.

After hanging up the phone, Director Du Qingbo's face turned slightly pale. He asked anxiously, "How is Secretary Qin Chuan?"

Wei Xinglong said, "Secretary Qin has great martial arts skills; he was not injured. Captain Xia Bing is currently driving him back to the Provincial Public Security Department."

A moment later, Minister Xu Haodong's call came through, directly to Director Du Qingbo's phone. Apparently, he already knew about the incident.

He was furious!

What on earth is Guangdong Province playing at? In broad daylight, a gunman dared to open fire on the Deputy Party Secretary of the Criminal Investigation Bureau on the street.

The critical point is that this is the only male descendant of the third generation of the Qin Family. If anything were to truly happen to him, the sky would collapse.

After hanging up the phone with Minister Xu Haodong, Director Du Qingbo broke out in a cold sweat. He never expected that Minister Xu would call so quickly, and that his tone would be unprecedentedly severe.

Not only did he demand that the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department immediately establish a special task force to investigate this matter, but the Criminal Investigation Bureau would also send people over to supervise the case.

Just after hanging up the phone with Minister Xu Haodong, Director Du Qingbo wanted to go and make a series of arrangements and deployments when the office door was pushed open forcefully.

He saw Qin Chuan walk in with a serious expression.

Seeing this, Director Du Qingbo's heart sank slightly. He guessed that Qin Chuan already knew about the release of Wang Shanshan, so he quickly put on a fawning smile.

"Comrade Qin Chuan, you've returned. I'm sorry you were frightened. We never expected that a shooting would occur in a busy downtown area."

Qin Chuan didn't give him any opportunity to change the subject and asked in a deep voice, "Director Du, where is Wang Shanshan? I heard that you were the one who agreed to release her!"

Director Du Qingbo felt a bit of anger in his heart. Damn it, I am a Director-level official, and you are half a rank lower than me, yet you don't give me any face at all.

But he dared not show it on his face and continued to smile fawningly, "Comrade Qin Chuan, I was really in a difficult position. Secretary Wang called personally; what else could I do?"

Qin Chuan gave him a meaningful look, knowing that this guy had already taken sides with Secretary Wang Kaiming. Good, this is very good.

In a few hours, when you find out that Secretary Wang Kaiming has been taken away for investigation, what will your reaction be?

You released Wang Shanshan, so hurry up and go catch her for me.

Qin Chuan said sternly, "Director Du, I'll give you one chance. Order your people to go and catch her for me."

What!

Director Du Qingbo looked at Qin Chuan with astonishment.

After a moment of shock, he was furious. This Wang Shanshan was truly hopeless; she had just been released and was already causing such trouble.

Seeing him hesitate, Qin Chuan's tone became much more serious, "What, are you not going to catch her back?"

Director Du Qingbo sighed helplessly. Wang Shanshan, you brought this on yourself. I have no choice; I can only have you caught again.

"Secretary Qin, I will send people over immediately."

He made the call in front of Qin Chuan. Soon, a team of police went directly to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. In fact, Director Du Qingbo wanted to tip off Wang Shanshan, but there was no opportunity, as Qin Chuan was right there beside him.

Qin Chuan wasn't going anywhere for the time being; he waited at the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department. He didn't even participate in the interrogation of the two gunmen.

The Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department established a special task force and began investigating the shooting incident. Qin Chuan also did not participate or inquire; he only waited for Wang Shanshan to be caught.

Because it was Director Du Qingbo himself who called to arrange it, the police were quite efficient. In less than an hour, Wang Shanshan was caught again.

She was having a wild time with a group of black men at the hotel. When the police broke in, they happened to witness that extremely disgraceful scene.

After hearing the report, Director Du Qingbo's face turned livid.

Now, there was no reason to release her. She was caught red-handed, and with Qin Chuan watching, he wouldn't dare even if he had a hundred times the courage.

Qin Chuan said, "Director Du, she was caught red-handed; there is nothing more to say. Immediately issue a notice in the name of the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department and tell the general public about Wang Shanshan's situation."

Director Du Qingbo objected, "Secretary Qin, isn't this a bit too rushed? Besides, for such an embarrassing matter, we should give Secretary Wang some face and try to handle it low-key."

Qin Chuan said, "I suggest you issue the notice immediately."

Leaving behind this sentence, Qin Chuan couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Director Du Qingbo. The opportunity had already been given to you, it was you who didn't cherish it.
