Lu Tao took a few sips of cigarettes and said, "I have said before that Zhou Jiyao's task force will increase its staff when necessary. I think it's time now. I decided to dispatch ten elite soldiers and future task force to work in each branch."

Liao Mingliang said in confusion: "What? What do you mean to investigate Luo Yumei's case and Zhou Jiyao's case together?"

Lu Tao nodded and said, "That's what I mean. Who can guarantee that this case is not involved with Zhou Jiyao's criminal group?"

Duan Yifeng said in surprise: "Zhou Jiyao?"

Qi Fei interrupted: "It is hard to say that the Yin-Yang contract case actually happened at his engineering headquarters in Erdaohe. Although no one in his company is involved in the case at present, it does not mean that Zhou Jiyao did not participate."

Lu Tao waved his hand and said, "When we are solving difficult cases, sometimes we have to rely on the sixth feeling. I really can't think of anyone who would risk assassinating a public security chief.

This can only show that Luo Yumei discovered a shocking secret that was enough to destroy a certain interest group, so they took the risk and blocked Luo Yumei's mouth at the last moment."

Duan Yifeng nodded and said, "I agree with Director Lu's opinion. Zhou Jiyao has not stopped moving and the case has not been found. We might as well put it aside for a while and concentrate our efforts on investigating Luo Yumei's case secretly. It is hard to say that we will not pull out the radish and bring out the mud.

To be honest, I have studied some criminal cases that have occurred in Nanzhao City in recent years and always feel that these cases have some connections. Although they were all solved in the end, the real culprit was still at large.

The biggest feature is to hire murderers, and most of the murderers are so-called people on the Tao. I think it is necessary for us to clear these so-called people on the Tao first, they are the hotbed of criminal crimes in this city."

Liao Mingliang said: "The economy has developed over the years, but various evil forces have gradually risen. In the past, they were fighting alone, but now they have gradually colluded into several criminal gangs.

And the division of labor is clear, which not only penetrates the economic field, but also attracts and corrupts some leading cadres. It can be said that it has become outrageous. To put it bluntly, some criminals have more advanced weapons than ours.

Luo Yumei's case must have fallen on the evil forces again after the investigation, but the real mastermind behind the scenes may still be at large, and this situation must change."

Lu Tao seemed to have not heard Liao Mingliang's words, and sat there in a daze. After a while, he came to his senses and asked, "Has Xu Ruijun, Erdaohe, explained it?"

Qi Fei shook his head and said, "He only admitted to selling property rights certificates and insisted that the jade pendant was bought from someone else's hand. However, Xu Ruijun must have economic problems. He couldn't explain the 90 million yuan private lending funds clearly, and the whereabouts were also doubtful."

Liao Mingliang said: "The source channels of private lending funds are very complex. Some of them are indeed private fundraising, but they are also mixed with some stolen money. It is no secret that the underground money houses in this city participate in money laundering."

Lu Tao asked: "Does Xu Ruijun be suspected of money laundering?"

Qi Fei shook his head and said, "There is no evidence in this regard yet. Xu Ruijun did not explain the source of the 90 million yuan on the grounds of commercial secrets, unless we can prove that the money is illegal."

Ji Wenlan hesitated for a moment and said cautiously: "Luo Yumei arrested Xu Ruijun two years ago, but later she was afraid of being released. She once hinted to Dai Jialang that the pressure came from Tang Bin. If this is true, I suspect that he may have contact with Ouyang, and Dai Jialang himself also has this suspicion."

Lu Tao hesitated and asked, "Are you secretly investigating Ouyang Dong?"

Qi Fei shook her head and said, "I can't say I'm investigating, I just want to know his business."

"Have you found something unusual?" Lu Tao asked.

Qi Fei shook his head and said, "No, but Ouyang Dong's business was almost bankrupt a few years ago, but he has made a lot of money in the past two years. Currently, he has three companies under his name with assets of over 100 million yuan, which is a bit unusual."

Qi Fei added: "Xu Ruijun's wife is named Ouyang Hui. I checked it and she should be a relationship with Ouyang Dong. With this, Xu Ruijun and Ouyang Dong must have some kind of connection."

Lu Tao hesitated and said, "This material alone cannot prove that Ouyang Dong and Xu Ruijun's case is implicated, unless you can provide other more direct evidence.

As far as I know, Secretary Tang has never been interested in Ouyang Yunsu's nephew, and even regards him as a prodigal son. In fact, after Ouyang Long's death, Ouyang Dong and the Tang family had almost no contact."

Ji Wenlan asked cautiously: "Director Lu, after Luo Yumei arrested Xu Ruijun, I don't know who put pressure on her, so that she had to release her?"

Lu Tao lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said, "I don't need to hide it. At that time, I really asked Luo Yumei to release Ouyang Dong.

Of course, I also learned about the whole case. In fact, Xu Ruijun himself did not participate in the beating, and they reached a compensation agreement with the victim afterwards. I thought it was just an irrelevant small case and did not want to offend some people because of this small case."

Liao Mingliang said cautiously: "Did Secretary Tang come forward in person?"

Lu Tao shook his head and said, "How could Secretary Tang come forward in person for such a thing?"

"That must be Ouyang Yunsu?" Ji Wenlan guessed.

Lu Tao shook his head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with the Tang family and the Ouyang family. In fact, a leader of the provincial department called me in person. I really didn't expect Xu Ruijun to be involved in the case again."

Duan Yifeng asked: "Is there anyone who greeted you after Xu Ruijun was arrested this time?"

Lu Tao shook his head and said, "Not yet."

Liao Mingliang nodded and said, "This shows that the case Xu Ruijun participated in this time is extraordinary. The people behind him are also quite afraid, so they simply don't come forward, but they should know that Xu Ruijun cannot confess his crimes and will not involve anyone."

Ji Wenlan said: "I also feel this way. Xu Ruijun is definitely not an ordinary criminal. He should be an important part of an interest group. Otherwise, no one would have protected him for an inconspicuous case back then."

Duan Yifeng said in confusion: "Will this Xu Ruijun have anything to do with Zhou Jiyao?"

Qi Fei shook his head and said, "It shouldn't matter. I've gone to Zhou Jiyao. He is obviously unfamiliar with Xu Ruijun. If Xu Ruijun really participates in Xiaohu's kidnapping case, then he should be Zhou Jiyao's opponent."

Duan Yifeng said in confusion: "Ouyang Dong is Ouyang Yunsu's nephew. If Xu Ruijun and Ouyang Dong were in the same gang, how could he go against Zhou Jiyao? It is even more impossible for him to kidnap Ouyang Yunsu's grandson."

Ji Wenlan hesitated: "According to the situation provided by Dai Jialang and Mei Xiangyue, the relationship between Zhou Jiyao and Tang Bin's family is relatively complicated, especially after Zhou Jianwei's death, Tang Wan became the nominal daughter-in-law of the Zhou family last year, and the relationship between the two families became even more distant.

Although Xiaohu is Ouyang Yunsu's grandson, he is first of all Zhou Jiyao's grandson. The person who kidnapped him is not only for money, but should also be related to Zhou Jiyao's future legacy competition.

In fact, the kidnappers did not kill Xiaohu. Perhaps, they did not want his life at all. This seems to indicate that the person who kidnapped Xiaohu had another purpose behind it."

Lu Tao said in surprise: "What do you mean is the Ouyang family planning this kidnapping case?"

Ji Wenlan hesitated and said, "I can't draw this conclusion, but Dai Jialang thought that Xiaohu was hidden in Erdaohe was not necessarily accidental.

In fact, when Sun Gan was young, he had to conquer the world in Erdaohe with Zhou. Yang Yi, who was beaten to death recently, also comes from Erdaohe. Ouyang Yunsu's family was once a prominent family in Erdaohe. Is this all accidental?"

Liao Mingliang nodded and said, "Wen Lan's inference is not without reason. The problem now is that the Ouyang family involves Secretary Tang after all, so we have to do it with caution."

Lu Tao was silent for a while before saying, "Now Sun Gan and Yang Yi are both dead, and the investigation of Zhou Jiyao has once again entered a dead end. If you want to find a new breakthrough, you may have to take a detour.

In fact, we have basically identified several evil forces that exist in the secret. These forces are both cooperative and fighting each other, but in the end, Zhou Jiyao will not be missing.

Perhaps, we can start with Zhou Jiyao's periphery, such as Xiaohu's kidnapping case, Zhou Jianwei's murder case, Yin-Yang contract case, and Luo Yumei's car accident case.

As long as one of the cases is solved, it is possible to pull out the radish and bring out the mud. Just staring at Zhou Jiyao now limits our vision."

"What do you mean is to suspend the investigation of Zhou Jiyao?" Liao Mingliang said in confusion.

Lu Tao shook his head and said, "It's not that we have stopped investigating. We have successfully arranged two undercover agents around Zhou Jiyao. I believe they will catch Zhou Jiyao's tail sooner or later, but this requires us to light a few fires around Zhou Jiyao, so we must not let him rest assured."

"How do you ignite these fires?" Duan Yifeng asked.

Lu Tao extinguished the cigarette butts in the ashtray and said, "Director Liao has said just now that the evil forces in our city are actually a breeding ground for crimes. All interest groups are bound to get along with them. We need to clean up the garbage in this city first.

According to the above instructions, if we have the spirit of eliminating black, eliminating evil, and eliminating evil, we might as well start a tough battle to fight evil.

From now on, you must conduct a comprehensive review of the criminal gangs that have been brought to justice, find clues, and strive to seize several important criminal gangs.

I believe that clues can be found in it about collusion between officials and businessmen, and collusion between criminal gangs and certain businessmen. Facts have proved that whether it is Sun Gan or Yang Yi, strictly speaking, they have a close relationship with these people in the Tao.

To put it bluntly, Zhou Jiyao was actually a Taoist person before he became rich, but later he cleaned himself up. Therefore, you should put some effort into thoroughly checking Zhou Jiyao's history of making a fortune in Erdaohe."

He paused and continued, "As for the situation of Ouyang's family in Erdaohe, if it has a direct relationship with the case, it can be investigated, but it must be low-key. I will find some time to communicate with Secretary Tang about this matter."

Liao Mingliang hesitated and said, "Old Lu, if the Ouyang family is involved in the case, wouldn't your communication with Secretary Tang violate our case-handling principles?"

Lu Tao hesitated for a moment, waved his hand and said, "I can't just doubt an old leader without conclusive evidence, and I believe Secretary Tang has an ambiguous attitude on this matter."

Duan Yifeng nodded and said, "I agree with Director Lu's idea. To put it bluntly, this is actually a kind of temptation."
