At the news, Secretary Han felt not only his temples throbbing, but his brain joining the revolt, pulsing with pain.

Was this young Zhou determined to blow a great hole in the sky?

"What happened this time?" Secretary Han asked helplessly, holding his forehead.

"Apparently, during questioning, Yuan Hong shouted at the criminal investigators, 'I'm not the only one who couldn't stand Cao Meng. Song Jingyan was involved too! You had the guts to arrest me, so let's see you arrest him as well. Do you dare?' Then... then Song Jingyan was brought in to keep him company that afternoon..."

His secretary, Lu Bo, faithfully reported what he had learned from the Public Security Bureau's Criminal Investigation Detachment.

"Idiot!" Han Jianguo's mouth twitched despite himself as he delivered that thoroughly apt verdict.

Lu Bo quickly nodded in agreement.

Honestly, beyond his surprise at Yuan Hong and Song Jingyan's arrests, he also felt a slight urge to laugh!

He hated these officials' sons most of all. There was no finesse to anything they did.

They usually relied on their fathers' power to commit every kind of outrage without restraint. Others were angry but dared not speak, dared to speak but not intervene, or dared to intervene but could do nothing.

Now things were different: a thunderous crack, and Director Zhou had arrived in Changtian. Anyone who deserved arrest was arrested, no discussion. Let's see who dared act untouchable now...

Han Jianguo felt his headache worsening. Municipal CPPCC Chairman Song Yi was, after all, a city leader of equal rank to him. Zhou Yi had arrested the man's son without so much as a word beforehand. That was a little too... well, wasn't it somewhat inappropriate?

If only Wen Wan, that living saint, were here. She could speak to Zhou Yi first
