The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

Chapter 289 What if I insist on a severe punishment?

Zhang Feng's expression was serious.

He then said in a deep voice, "As everyone knows, there are no indicative leads in this case so far, making it very difficult to solve."

Zhang Feng pointed at Tian Yongjun: "Although Tian Yongjun is the deputy director of our High-tech Zone Branch in charge of criminal investigation, the actual handling of cases is done by Zhao Baojun, the captain of the criminal investigation brigade."

"However, everyone should now know the city's attitude towards this case. Secretary Huang has clearly demanded that the case be solved within a limited time, which is 10 days. Three days have already passed, and time is of the essence, comrades."

Zhang Feng then went on to talk about Wang Qiang.

"To be honest, everyone knows that Wang Qiang's case is not a big deal, at least not compared to the case of the massacre of his entire family."

Zhang Feng looked at Qin Chuan: "Everyone here is very clear about Wang Qiang's basic situation. Except for our Director Qin, who is new here, he is not very familiar with some of the previous personnel arrangements, personnel transfers and interpersonal relationships. You all know who Wang Qiang is related to."

Although Zhang Feng was saying this to everyone else, it was meant for Qin Chuan to hear.

“If Wang Qiang is dealt with severely at this time, I think it will cause some unnecessary trouble and have some negative impact, especially the support of the Xing’an City Public Security Bureau for our High-tech Zone Branch.”

Zhang Feng sighed: "Director Qin, everyone, my suggestion is that we put this matter concerning Wang Qiang on hold for now."

"If the family annihilation case is solved within the stipulated time, then our High-tech Zone Branch will have made a great contribution. At that time, when we are handling Wang Qiang's case, I think no matter who it is, they will have no reason or even be able to stop us."

"However, if we take action against Wang Qiang before solving the murder case, not only will we offend the people at the Xing'an City Public Security Bureau..."

"just in case……"

Zhang Feng lit another cigarette: "Comrades, I mean, what if, what if the case isn't solved? And if the Municipal Bureau puts more pressure on us with responsibility, and if someone is stirring things up, it would be adding insult to injury for our High-tech Zone Branch."

To be honest, Zhang Feng's words made a lot of sense.

On the one hand, he did not advocate abandoning the severe punishment of Wang Qiang, but just wanted to put the matter aside for the time being.

Whether or not Wang Qiang is dealt with is actually irrelevant to Zhang Feng.

Wang Qiang was set up by Qin Chuan. He was the first person Qin Chuan set up. What does it have to do with Zhang Feng whether this fire can be lit or not?

To be honest, without this fatal family annihilation case, Wang Qiang's case would have been impossible to resolve, no matter who spoke up, let alone those above him.

Qin Chuan had only recently taken office. If the other party's attempt to start a fire was thwarted by higher authorities, or if it was just about to ignite, it would be extremely detrimental to Qin Chuan's work at the High-tech Zone Branch.

This was the time for Qin Chuan to establish his authority, and Qin Chuan's appointment represented the organizational intentions of the higher authorities and was a unified decision of the Xing'an City Public Security Bureau Party Committee.

To put it bluntly, establishing authority requires the support of superiors, and those superiors must definitely provide that support.

Otherwise, why send Qin Chuan?

As the political commissar, even if Zhang Feng was dissatisfied with this matter, frankly speaking, under normal circumstances, he would not raise any objections.

However, times have changed, and the current situation is not normal.

Zhang Feng was able to legitimately use pressure from his superiors to prevent Qin Chuan's actions from escalating. In that case, everyone probably knows who will be in charge of the High-tech Zone Branch in the future.

The less prestige Qin Chuan had, the more say he could have.

Otherwise, what say would the political commissar of the Public Security Bureau have? The bureau chief would be watching over everything.

On the other hand, Zhang Feng also reminded Qin Chuan about this matter.

The key task for the entire High-tech Zone is now to solve the family annihilation case.

Only by solving this family annihilation case can Qin Chuan truly gain a foothold in the High-tech Zone Branch.

Otherwise, simply punishing Wang Qiang would not only displease those above, but also those below.

For all the police officers in the High-tech Zone Branch, solving every murder case is not only their work creed, but also a requirement and a guarantee for their year-end bonuses.

If Qin Chuan were to divert his resources to deal with Wang Qiang at this time, it would inevitably make him seem somewhat short-sighted and eager for quick success.

If the murder case is not solved by then, the High-tech Zone Branch will be completely in a passive position. Qin Chuan will not be able to make a splash as a new official, and he will need someone to protect him if he can stay in this position.

For police officers, solving cases is the top priority, no matter where they are. If you can solve cases, it's okay if you have a bad temper. If you can't solve cases, then you're incompetent.

Zhang Feng knew that Qin Chuan could understand what he meant.

But would the other party make that choice?

Qin Chuan looked around.

He single-handedly fought his way from Zhulin County to Ping'an County, and in less than a year, he has become the director of the Xi'an High-tech Zone Public Security Bureau.

Is it based on looking ahead and behind?

fart!

If that's the case, he's still in Changning Town right now!

So, after looking around, Qin Chuan said, slowly and deliberately, "What if I said... I insist on severely punishing Wang Qiang?"
