Chapter 90: The Ledger Was Burned

  It's about to be recommended on Sanjiang, but Sanjiang's performance isn't great. However, I'll still work hard to write and update every day with two chapters, one in the afternoon and one at night, whenever I finish writing. If there are stored chapters in the future, it will be updated at 2 pm and 10 pm. Hope everyone likes this book and supports me by voting, collecting, and helping me advertise for this book? It may not be put on shelves so quickly, I plan to put it on shelves on the first day of next month, so there will still be a lot of free chapters.

  Hurriedly getting off the bus, Su Lin directly went into her own home.

  "Mom! Mom...... how are you? Is it serious?"

  As soon as Su Lin entered the courtyard, she saw many neighbors surrounding her mother, and five or six police officers were on the scene making some investigations and taking photos. The door of their house had already been smashed, and from the outside, it could be seen that inside was a mess, with things overturned and scattered all over the place.

  "Kobayashi, how did you get back? Mom's fine, just that those few days were tough and I got knocked around a bit, scratched my arm, but it's nothing after putting some iodine on it. But look at our home, it's almost been turned into a garbage dump... They've been rummaging through everything, those bastards don't know what they're looking for, we don't have anything valuable anyway."

  Su Mu Liu Ai Zhen was fuming, her mouth still cursing those black-clad men with all sorts of foul language.

  "Mom, as long as you're fine, it's all good."

  To be honest, on the way here, Su Lin was worried and afraid that his mother would be beaten by those people. Now seeing that his mother only had a slight scratch, he felt relieved, but those people actually dared to break into their home, this is not allowed to be forgiven, Su Lin clenched his fists tightly, how could he not hold a grudge?

  "Xiao Wang, Lao Li, what's the situation on site?"

  Deputy Director Yan Longyong of the Criminal Police Brigade, who arrived in succession, first found the two criminal police officers who came earlier and asked about the specific situation.

  "The leader, has basically been determined. The four people who broke into the Su family's home were all wearing black suits and sunglasses. Their purpose was very strong, at around 3 o'clock this afternoon, almost an hour ago, they broke into the Su family's home and rummaged through it. It was clear that they weren't after money or valuables, as none of the Su family's precious items were missing. Moreover, according to Mrs. Su and several eyewitnesses, the last few black-clad men seemed to have found what they were looking for before quickly fleeing the scene."

  Yan Longyong listened to the on-site police report, frowning and asked: "According to this situation, it can be determined that these people are undoubtedly looking for the Dragon Tiger Gang's account book. Moreover, it is very likely that the account book has been taken away by them. The situation is not good, do you know their escape route and transportation?"

  "Boss, as soon as we received the alarm, we rushed here at the fastest speed. Moreover, according to the eyewitnesses on the scene, those people left in a black Xiali car with license plate number Fujian A78945. We have contacted the traffic department and are now blocking off the entire city for pursuit..."

  "Good! This ledger is a crucial piece of evidence and must be recovered at all costs. Mobilize all police forces to catch them."

  Yan Longyong nodded, there was nothing else he could do. Unfortunately, they had missed each other by a step, otherwise the man in black wouldn't have been able to get ahead of them.

  "Kobayashi! Our family... what have we done to offend someone? Why are there always strange things happening these days? A few days ago, the glass was smashed and my husband and I were suddenly laid off without reason. Today, people came rushing into our home and turned the whole house upside down..."

  Su Mu Liu Aizhen scolded and cursed on the surface, but in her heart, she was also starting to get scared. After all, those four men in black were very powerful and fierce. After being pushed away, Su Mu lay on the ground without daring to move. She didn't call the police until they left, and then let the neighbor make the call.

  "Mom! Don't be afraid, I will soon bring these bad people to justice."

  Because of his own affairs, Su Lin brought so much trouble to his family, and he was also very ashamed in his heart. However, this made him more determined to help the police, and to bring down the Dragon Tiger Gang and those corrupt officials once and for all.

  "By the way, mom, when Captain Yan sent me back two days ago. Wasn't there something on me? Where did you put that thing? That thing was the ledger of the Black Dragon Society, which recorded all the details of their bribery to officials."

  To thoroughly bring down these people, the only way is to rely on that one book that records all the detailed bribery records. Su Lin was unsure if the book had been taken away by those black-clothed men, so he asked his mother.

  "It seems like there was this thing, which was all soaked in blood at the time. I thought it was your study notes or exercise book! It's been left on the balcony to air out... Oh, right, when that group of black-clad people burst in, they asked me where some ledger was too. I had no idea what they were talking about, so I just said I didn't know, and they tossed me aside..."

  Su Mu thought for a moment and said.

  "On the balcony? I'll go take a look..."

  Su Lin quickly ran to the balcony behind her house, but found it empty, apparently that account book was indeed taken away by those black-clothed men.

  "How was it? Su Lin, what did your mother say?"

  "Captain Yan, my mom said that after I came back that day, the account book was indeed on me. She thought it was my homework or something and put it on the balcony to cool off. But when I just went to look, I found that the account book had disappeared. It seems that it has indeed been taken away by those black-clothed men."

  Su Lin shook his head, also knowing that once the account book was gone, it would be difficult for them to thoroughly move into the forces behind the Black Dragon Gang.

  "Sulin, it seems things are taking a turn for the worse. Our guess is that they've also taken that ledger."

  Captain Yan Longyong nodded, and the information provided by Su Lin was roughly what he had expected.

  "What's going to happen now? Captain Yan, they've taken away the account book. Now we don't have the crucial evidence in our hands!" Su Lin said worriedly.

  "Judging from the current situation, it seems that the account book has indeed fallen into their hands for the time being. However, we have already grasped the information of the vehicle they escaped in, and I have now mobilized all police forces to pursue them with all our might. I believe that there will be results soon."

  It's all that can be done now. The importance of the account book is self-evident, and no matter what price is paid, it must be recovered.

  Yan Longyong had just finished speaking when the walkie-talkie in his hand suddenly crackled to life.

  "Team Yan, the black Chariot with license plate number Min A78945 has been found. Surveillance footage shows that the vehicle is currently passing through the city center, along Zhongshan Road, and escaping southbound on the highway. Please instruct Team Yan..."

  This is the report sent back by the police officer from Jian'an City Public Security Bureau Traffic Division. As soon as Yan Longyong heard that the suspect vehicle had been found, he was shocked and immediately issued an order through the intercom: "All teams pay attention, listen to the target location of the Traffic Division. The criminal vehicle is now passing through the city center, heading south along Zhongshan Road towards the highway, all police officers and vehicles set off, no matter what the cost, must intercept the escaped suspects..."

  "Have you found them? Captain Yan?"

  Su Lin was also excited on the side, especially Su Lin's mother, who had just calmed down and returned to her normal self. She rushed to Yan Longyong's side and shouted: "Captain Yan, you police are supposed to protect our safety and property as ordinary people! Now these few bastards dare to break into a civilian's home in broad daylight, you must catch them and stand up for us!"

  "Ms. Liu, don't worry. We have now mobilized the police force and are doing our best to pursue them, we will definitely bring them to justice."

  Yan Longyong assured Su Mu while quickly dialing a number on his phone, which was a call to Mayor Fang Liping.

  "Hey! Mayor Fang, we've arrived at Su Lin's house. Unfortunately, the account book has been snatched away, but we've already locked down the suspect's location. Now, mobilize all police forces and launch a city-wide manhunt!"

  Fang Liping, in the mayor's office in the government building, also heard Yan Longyong's phone call and was overjoyed. She said affirmatively: "Well done, Captain Yan! You must get hold of the account book. If there are any developments or situations, report to me at the first time."

  Slamming down the phone, Fang Liping glared at Municipal Party Secretary Liu Jianguo sitting across from her: "Liu Jianguo, just you wait! Once the account book is found, all the crimes you've committed will be exposed to the world."

  "Oh? Is that so? Haha…… Mayor Fang is so confident that he can find the account book, huh?" Liu Jianguo seemed not to be tense at all, laughing very relaxedly and comfortably. "Then I'll just wait and see how Mayor Fang conjures up an account book out of thin air."

  He had just received a call from his men, and the account book they had burned in the car as soon as they got their hands on it, so Liu Jianguo was not worried at all. Even if those few men were caught, it would have nothing to do with him, anyway, the account book was gone, burned, and there was no evidence left.

  "Hum! The task force should be arriving soon. Secretary Liu, it's time to settle accounts for all the things you've done."

  As expected, Fang Liping had just finished speaking when the office phone rang. It was her secretary informing her that the special task force's vehicle would arrive soon.

  "Alright, I know. I'll go down and meet him now."

  Fang Liping stood up and informed a group of government officials to go downstairs to welcome the special task force sent by the provincial authorities. Liu Jianguo also stood up with a smile, saying: "Mayor Fang, the special task force dispatched by the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission and the Public Security Department, I am the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, let's go... Let's all go together to welcome our comrades from the province."

  On the side of the government building, a special task force from the province arrived quickly. On the other hand, Yan Longyong, the head of the criminal police team, was anxiously waiting for the result of the capture.

  Half an hour later, after being chased and intercepted by all the police officers in Jian'an City, the black Chevrolet finally had nowhere to hide, and the four men in black were captured.

  "Reporting to Captain Que, we have fulfilled our mission without shame. We successfully intercepted the black Xiali and apprehended four criminal suspects."

  When he heard the report from the walkie-talkie, Yan Longyong was overjoyed: "Well done! Where's the account book? Has the account book been found?"

  Su Lin was also on the side, holding a small heart and listening nervously. The person had been found, but the account book was the most crucial thing, as only it could serve as the fatal evidence to bring down those officials behind the Black Dragon Society.

  "We've searched everywhere, Captain, but we haven't found the account book. All we found were some ashes of burnt paper in the back seat of the car, it's likely that they've already destroyed the account book."

  "What? The account book was burned?"
