April 23rd, 12: 30 PM.
Shi Lei was in a good mood. His right index finger was twirling the car key ring as he enjoyed his beautiful life.
Walking into the elevator, Shi Lei stopped twirling the car key. He took out his Bluetooth earpiece and put it on his left ear. He was about to call Li Chai and ask Li Chai to come out for a meal.
Shi Lei wanted to ask about the recent situation in Shuangqing University. He wanted to know if the news of his relationship with Li Zhiyue was still circulating in the school.
"Sir, the highest level of protection target, Ou Yangxiang, is entering Jingya Court," Izur's voice sounded from the Bluetooth earpiece, interrupting Shi Lei's action of dialing the number.
"Ou Yangxiang?"
Shi Lei frowned slightly. Ou Yangxiang should be dealing with the drug lord Gao Boyang's case and should be staying in Beiyu District.
The drug lord Gao Boyang's case was in a deadlock.
But because of the villain's lawyer, Jia Hanwei, there was a huge breakthrough in Gao Boyang's case. Even if Shi Lei did not push it, Gao Boyang would still be exempted from the death penalty and would be sentenced to life imprisonment.
Walking out of the elevator, Shi Lei stood by the road and waited for Ou Yangxiang to drive over.
In less than half a minute, Ou Yangxiang arrived at Jingya Court's Block 10 and parked the car beside Shi Lei.
When Ou Yangxiang got out of the car, she looked at Shi Lei in surprise, "Shi Lei, how did you know I was coming?"
Shi Lei deliberately joked, "I have a special ability to predict the future!"
"Hmph!" Ou Yangxiang snorted, "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you!"
"Alright, alright, I'm not joking.
Shuanghu District is my territory. Nothing can escape my notice.
Especially you. You're one of the people that I've specifically called out to and need to be carefully protected. How could I not know that you've entered the Twin Lakes Region? "Shi Lei said seriously, without the slightest bit of embarrassment.
Shyness had fallen to the ground along with his moral integrity.
Ou Yangxiang blushed and rolled her eyes at Shi Lei. "Shi Lei, Gao Boyang's confession has been retracted again!"
"What?" Shi Lei's expression froze. "What happened?
Has Jia Hanwei betrayed us again? "
Shi Lei couldn't think of any other possibilities. Jia Hanwei was the key figure in this case. Unless he retracted his confession, Gao Boyang's case wouldn't cause any trouble.
Gao Boyang's case was very important to Ou Yangxiang, and indirectly, it was also very important to Shi Lei.
If Shi Lei wanted to push Ou Yangxiang down, he had to fulfill Ou Yangxiang's wish and catch the murderer who killed her father.
Otherwise, Ou Yangxiang would continue to persevere!
There were a total of three drug lords who had killed Ou Yangpu. Other than Gao Boyang, there was no clue about the other two.
"It's not Jia Hanwei, but a resistance suddenly appeared within our law enforcement system.
The current situation is that the prosecution doesn't accept Jia Hanwei's testimony because Jia Hanwei used to be Gao Boyang's defense lawyer. He suddenly changed his testimony, so the prosecution thinks that Jia Hanwei's testimony is invalid. "Ou Yangxiang's face was a little pale.
As a member of the police system, Ou Yangxiang knew very well that the excuse that Jia Hanwei used to be Gao Boyang's defense lawyer didn't hold water.
This reason even made Jia Hanwei's testimony more credible.
The only possibility for the prosecution to shirk the responsibility was that there was resistance from other sources.
There must be someone in a high position within the official system who was secretly pressuring the prosecution.
Faced with such a situation, Ou Yangxiang was very sad.
She insisted on justice again and again, but justice was twisted again and again.
If Gao Boyang escaped punishment in the end, Ou Yangxiang didn't know if her persistence was worth it!
Shi Lei comforted Ou Yangxiang. "Ou Yangxiang, don't worry. I'll solve it.
This matter is obviously abnormal. Someone is pushing it from behind.
Do you know who's behind this?
Or do you have any suspects? "
Ou Yangxiang hesitated for a moment before slowly nodding. "Director Bai, tell me secretly that the person behind this matter is the highest level of Shuangqing City. Even if it's him, he can't ignore the other party's opinion."
'The highest level?
Someone with real power? 'Shi Lei thought of an answer in his heart.
Maybe Gao Boyang's case wasn't targeted at Ou Yangxiang, but at Shi Lei himself!
Xie Nanfeng was the deputy mayor of Shuangqing City who was in charge of the economy. He was only forty-six years old and had a great chance to go further. The most important reason was that Xie Nanfeng was Dai Guanghua's backer!
Shi Lei guessed that Xie Nanfeng must have someone even higher up behind him, but he hadn't revealed it yet.
'Xie Nanfeng, you're behind this again.
Don't think that just because you're the deputy mayor of Shuangqing City, I can't do anything to you. Hmph! 'Shi Lei snorted coldly in his heart.
Xie Nanfeng's position in Shuangqing City was second only to the mayor and the executive deputy mayor. Shuangqing City was directly under the jurisdiction of the mayor, so its administrative level was extremely high. If Xie Nanfeng had an inexplicable accident, Shi Lei wouldn't be able to escape responsibility and would definitely be strictly investigated.
However, this didn't mean that Shi Lei would accept Xie Nanfeng's suppression!
"Ou Yangxiang, where is Gao Boyang now?" Shi Lei didn't intend to tell Ou Yangxiang about Xie Nanfeng's matter, lest Ou Yangxiang worry about him again.
"In the Ironstone Detention Center. The court specially provided a single room and arranged for a separate guard to protect him," Ou Yangxiang said gloomily.
Shi Lei opened the front passenger door of Ou Yangxiang's Ford police car. "Get in, we're going to the Ironstone Detention Center."
Ou Yangxiang obediently sat in the front passenger seat. Unknowingly, Ou Yangxiang, who was originally a determined person, slowly regarded Shi Lei as her pillar of support.
No matter how strong she was, she was still a woman, and she hoped to be protected by a man!
Shi Lei sat in the driver's seat, started the engine, and drove to the Ironstone Detention Center.
Shi Lei drove the Ford police car while dialing Bai Qiang's phone number.
After waiting for a moment, Bai Qiang picked up the phone and said politely, "Brother Shi, how come you have time to call me today?"
"Brother Bai, let's not do underhanded things. You told me through Ou Yangxiang that someone was making trouble, and I can understand.
I now need a pass to enter the Ironstone Detention Center. The Ironstone Detention Center is under the management of your city bureau, right?
I believe that you can do this matter, "Shi Lei said with a smile.
Bai Qiang was a little embarrassed. Shi Lei was no longer the college student who needed to rely on Shi Lei's power. Now, they were in a relationship of equal cooperation. Bai Qiang even needed Shi Lei more.
"No problem!
I'll ask someone to deal with it immediately. "
Bai Qiang didn't refuse. This matter was within his scope of authority. If he refused again, it wouldn't be justifiable.
Shi Lei added, "Brother Bai, arrange for someone to send it to the Ironstone Detention Center after it's done. I'll rush there directly from Shuanghu District."
"Okay!" Bai Qiang responded briefly.
Shi Lei got a satisfactory answer and hung up the phone.
Ou Yangxiang looked at Shi Lei with a complicated gaze. In her eyes, this was a difficult matter, but Shi Lei only spent a phone call to get a preliminary solution.
"Shi Lei, you're so outstanding. I'm a little worried …" Ou Yangxiang lowered her head and thought silently.
More than half an hour later, Shi Lei accompanied Ou Yangxiang to the Ironstone Detention Center. A police car was parked outside the Ironstone Detention Center, and a middle-aged policeman was standing outside.
After Shi Lei and Ou Yangxiang got out of the car, the middle-aged policeman ran over and handed a pass to Shi Lei. He didn't say anything and left directly.
With the pass, Shi Lei and Ou Yangxiang smoothly entered the detention center. Although there were people from the judicial system who tried to stop them, the detention center was ultimately managed by the police system. Under the guidance of the police system's guards, Shi Lei and Ou Yangxiang were unimpeded.
Shi Lei and Ou Yangxiang walked through the Ironstone Detention Center and came to the individual guard area. A calm guard wearing glasses stopped Shi Lei and Ou Yangxiang.
"I'm sorry, this prisoner is under special protection. Without a certificate issued by the court, you can't meet him alone."
The jurisdiction of the detention center belonged to the Ministry of Justice, and it had its own system.
However, the local jurisdiction was somewhat chaotic. The police, the court, and the prosecutor's office were all qualified to manage it.
Xia's management was famous for the confusion. For example, the management of the "three chaotic" road problems involved the traffic police, transportation, road administration, C management, environment, health, forestry, salt industry, quality supervision, industry and commerce, and so on.
There were so many departments in charge that it made people speechless.
Shi Lei had obtained a pass from the police station, but the guard who blocked his way was obviously a member of the judicial system, or rather, a member of the court system.
"Can't I get a pass issued by the police station?" Shi Lei looked at the guard in front of him and asked pleasantly.
"I'm sorry, I can only let you pass if you get a certificate issued by the court.
You can contact the court and apply for a pass, "the bespectacled guard said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
Shi Lei didn't say anything. He took out his phone, entered a string of warning numbers and sent it out.
In less than ten seconds, Shi Lei received a message on his phone. Shi Lei read it out loud.
"He Zhibing, 32 years old; daughter He Lan, 4 years old; wife Ren Yunduo, 28 years old.
Currently living in Beiyu District, 964 Baiyu Road, Unit 1, Room 202.
Father … "
"Enough!" He Zhibing, who was originally calm, looked at Shi Lei angrily. "What do you want?!"
Shi Lei pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and smiled indifferently. "My name is Shi Lei, Shi Lei from Shuanghu District.
Are you sure you want to stop me? "
He Zhibing's face was full of anger, but he chose to step back in the end.
The other party had easily found out his information. Obviously, the other party wasn't a simple character.
He was just a guard. Once he realized that he might offend someone he shouldn't, he would step back immediately.
"Very well!
I believe that I'll forget about the unpleasantness just now! "
Shi Lei led Ou Yangxiang into the separate guard area. Under the guidance of the guard from the police system, they arrived outside Gao Boyang's room.
Gao Boyang's personal guard room was very good. He lived in a single room, with a separate bathroom and even a TV.
Shi Lei stood outside the iron fence and glanced at Gao Boyang, who was lying on the bed and watching TV. He clapped his hands to attract Gao Boyang's attention.
"Hello, Sand King. We meet again!" Shi Lei smiled at Gao Boyang.
