The Last Thirty Years Depend on Zijing's Father

Li Lei watched his agitated colleagues in the hallway, knowing that Lu Sheng had taken action.

Many of the squad leaders and team leaders here belonged to the First Brigade.

Lu Sheng had said that he would take responsibility if anything happened. Although he didn't speak up for him in Wu Yihua's office, he was now showing his support in this way.

Of course, this was also because Li Lei's attitude was strong enough, daring to confront Wu Yihua head-on. Otherwise, even if Lu Sheng was willing to help, he wouldn't have been able to create this scene.

Half of the excited Overseeing Bureau Inspectors present were giving Lu Sheng face, and the other half were acting from their hearts.

If Li Lei's son was bullied by the Tiger Sabre Gang today and they did nothing, who would care if their own families were bullied by the Tiger Sabre Gang in the future?

Li Lei, as a team leader, had his son almost crippled by the Tiger Sabre Gang, which made the other team leaders and squad leaders present feel a sense of unease.

The Tiger Sabre Gang was so arrogant that the Overseeing Bureau absolutely couldn't back down this time!

Once this consensus was reached, this incident was no longer a simple assault case.

A dozen minutes later, Li Lei, Wang Xu, Lu Sheng, and Wu Yihua were summoned to the director's office.

The current director of the Xing City Overseeing Bureau, Huang Weiguang, was already fifty-one years old. Everyone in the Overseeing Bureau knew that this director would retire in a few years.

In the past two years, Huang Weiguang had rarely interfered in the affairs of the bureau, basically in a semi-retired state.

Today, he had unusually summoned a deputy director, two brigade captains, and a team leader to his office at the same time, making it clear that he intended to personally handle this incident.

"How is the interrogation of that Liu Wen going?"

After listening to their accounts, the first question Huang Weiguang asked was this.

"Director, Liu Wen hasn't confessed. He insists that he acted alone, but he can't provide a convincing reason," Li Lei replied.

Huang Weiguang looked at Li Lei. Although half of his hair was gray, showing his age, his eyes were still sharp, like an eagle scrutinizing its prey: "You think the Tiger Sabre Gang ordered this. Why would the Tiger Sabre Gang target your son?"

Li Lei: "Director, my son entered the Military Academy and was taken in as a student by a Special Grade Instructor. Perhaps the Tiger Sabre Gang felt he would be a threat in the future, so they wanted to eliminate him in advance. As you know, the Tiger Sabre Gang has always regarded the local Military Academy as their own backyard and won't allow others to take a share."

"Oh?"

Huang Weiguang narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. "Which Special Grade Instructor at the Military Academy took a liking to your son?"

"It's Mr. Hao Yi."

"So it's him."

Huang Weiguang murmured, and then the look in his eyes towards Li Lei clearly softened a lot:

"It seems your son is indeed qualified to become a threat."

After saying that, he looked at Wu Yihua again: "Yihua, I know you've been getting close to the Tiger Sabre Gang lately."

Wu Yihua's expression changed upon hearing this, and he hurriedly said, "Director, I definitely didn't—"

Huang Weiguang waved his hand, interrupting him:

"I don't care who you get close to, but in any case, the brothers in the bureau are the real ones. If you can't even protect the interests of your brothers, it will be disheartening."

"Director, you've really misunderstood me!"

Wu Yihua had to explain, "Like this, I'll make a statement. If it turns out that the Tiger Sabre Gang was really behind this, I'll personally lead a team to arrest them! We'll definitely severely punish the culprits and give the brothers in the bureau an explanation!"

Lu Sheng, who hadn't spoken all this time, glanced at Wu Yihua and said:

"Director, I think the breakthrough in this matter is still with Liu Wen. Now that he's in our hands, there must be a way to make him confess."

"What are your thoughts?" Huang Weiguang asked.

Lu Sheng: "The reason why Liu Wen doesn't dare to confess is because his family is being held hostage by the Tiger Sabre Gang. As long as we can protect his family and promise to protect his safety, he might confess."

Huang Weiguang: "Liu Wen has been arrested for so long. If his family is really being held hostage by the Tiger Sabre Gang, wouldn't it be too late to find them now?"

Lu Sheng quickly said, "Director, when I approved Captain Li to arrest people, I had already sent people to find Liu Wen's family. We should be getting a reply soon."

"Oh?"

Huang Weiguang nodded. "Good, you're responsible for continuing to investigate this matter. Tell me as soon as you have results."

"Yes, I guarantee the completion of the mission!"

Lu Sheng stood at attention and saluted.

"Alright, you can all go."

Huang Weiguang said finally.

So the four of them left the office.

"Lu Sheng."

After walking out of the office, Wu Yihua suddenly called out to Lu Sheng.

"Vice Overseeing Bureau Inspector, is there anything I can help you with?"

"If Liu Wen turns up any results, let me know. I'm also very curious to know who exactly is behind this."

"Yes, I will definitely inform you if there are any results."

Lu Sheng said.

Wu Yihua took a deep look at Lu Sheng and turned to leave.

As for his previous words about punishing Li Lei, he didn't mention them again.

"Captain Lu, can you find Liu Wen's family?"

After Wu Yihua left, Wang Xu asked.

Actually, Li Lei certainly knew what the key was to making Liu Wen talk, but he didn't have any information about Liu Wen's family, so naturally, he couldn't find them in a short time.

"If there are no accidents, Liu Wen's family should already be on their way to the Overseeing Bureau."

Lu Sheng said calmly.

Wang Xu smiled upon hearing this, "Captain Lu is really capable. There's a reason why you're the First Brigade Captain. Old Wang here is completely convinced."

After speaking, he patted Li Lei on the shoulder:

"Old Li, I can understand your feelings. This matter is not your fault. If my son was attacked like this, I would do the same."

"Captain Wang, I really..."

"Hey, alright, treat me to a drink after this is over."

"Okay, all the drinks you want!"

The two smiled at each other, and then Wang Xu also left, leaving the space for Li Lei and Lu Sheng.

Li Lei said to Lu Sheng, "Captain Lu, thank you for this matter."

"Hey, Old Li, don't be so polite."

Lu Sheng smiled and put his arm around Li Lei, and the two walked side by side in the corridor:

"Your Xiaofei is very impressive. He was ambushed by more than a dozen people and beaten with iron bars, but in the end, he was able to turn the tables and knock them all down, and even directly captured their boss. He's much stronger than my kid. I think if it were my kid, he would definitely be in a bad way and might even be crippled."

Li Lei couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth upon hearing this, and a look of pride appeared on his face, but he still said, "Hey, Captain Lu is too modest. My Xiaofei told me that your Lu Changwu is a prominent figure in the Military Academy, an elite student."

"Hahaha, what prominent figure, it's all just talk."

Lu Sheng shook his head with a smile, "However, I think the Overseeing Bureau Inspector is willing to support you this time, partly because of Mr. Hao Yi. This Mr. Hao Yi is a remarkable person. Your Xiaofei being favored by him and accepted as a student means he will definitely not be an ordinary person in the future! He and my Changwu are now both in the Military Academy, so maybe Changwu will need Xiaofei's help in the future."

"Captain Lu, don't say that. Xiaofei will need Changwu to take care of him in the future."

Li Lei said quickly.

"Haha, alright, these two kids should get closer in the future, and our two families should also interact more."

"Okay, I'll listen to Captain Lu."

The two walked down the stairs, talking and laughing.

This scene was seen by many people, and they couldn't help but marvel.

It was the first time they had seen Lu Sheng, who had a bright future and was guaranteed to be promoted to Vice Overseeing Bureau Inspector, being so close to a middle-level captain.

After returning to his office, Li Lei calmed down and couldn't help but smile.

Originally, he thought he was standing up for Li Fei this time, but now it seemed like he was benefiting from Li Fei's influence? He had heard people say, 'For the first thirty years, the father raises the son; for the next thirty years, the son respects the father.'

Now it seemed like he wouldn't have to wait thirty years.

"Why do I feel like the opportunities for me to stand up for this kid in the future are getting fewer and fewer?"

Li Lei muttered to himself, his face full of smiles.
