Chapter 439: Chapter 439

Lu Feng was a bit scared, "Squad leader, that’s 70 billion! Once transferred, can we recover it?"

Song Guanchao said, "What’s there to be afraid of, everyone is watching."

Moreover, what he wanted to catch wasn’t just these few people.

The finance bureau’s money would first be transferred to the accounts of these nine companies.

But he was sure that the final destination of the money would not be these nine companies.

It would be overseas!

After receiving the money, these nine companies would definitely find a way to transfer it overseas.

He wanted to completely eradicate Hou Wen’s influence abroad!

The next day.

Lingjiang.

Inside a high-end office building, He Kang received a phone call.

"Mr. He, Hou Wen has gone to the airport."

"When did this happen?"

"He’s on his way."

"Where is he going?"

"Hou Wen received an invitation from Fucheng University to teach a course on ideological and political education."

"Damn, why are you panting so heavily while talking? Just say he’s going to teach, it sounds like he’s planning to flee."

He Kang cursed, he had thought Hou Wen had sensed something and was preparing to escape.

The man on the other line said plaintively, "But Mr. He, it was you who asked me to report back at any time."

"Okay, keep watching him."

...

Song Guanchao was still in Tianhai City, having a meal with Lu Feng.

Liang Jianfeng called him and told him that Hou Wen had left Dujiang City for Fucheng.

Song Guanchao was a bit puzzled, why would he go to Fucheng for no reason?

Fucheng is a prefecture-level city in Tian’an Province, about five to six hundred kilometers from Lingjiang.

He called Fu Ying, "Hou Wen went to Fucheng?"

"Yes, you really have a way of getting information."

"What is he doing going to Fucheng, do you know?"

"When Secretary Tu was in office, the Political and Legal University of Fucheng and Dujiang County had scheduled a teaching event that was supposed to be attended by Secretary Tu. Since Secretary Tu was transferred, Mayor Hou had to go."

"Okay, I got it."

Actually, such university invitations are common for local officials, but top leaders rarely participate.

Song Guanchao guessed that Hou Wen probably didn’t want to attend but didn’t want to upset the school during such a critical time.

Anyway, he was going to flee soon, so it didn’t matter what he did.

Lu Feng also received a call from the finance bureau, asking how to handle the money.

He had asked yesterday, but at that time Lu Feng didn’t know how to handle it, so he told them to call back the next day.

Now that he knew Song Guanchao’s decision, Lu Feng said, "Approve it as usual."

"Approve?" Wang Shujing thought he had heard wrongly.

"Yes, just approve it."

"But, but..."

"But what?"

"But... this is 70 billion in government funds, what if we can’t get it back..."

Wang Shujing was panicking.

If he hadn’t been taken away by the Disciplinary Committee for investigation, he would have just approved it.

But now, he didn’t dare to approve.

If he approved and couldn’t recover the money, it wouldn’t be as simple as just going to jail.

Lu Feng said sternly, "Don’t worry, these nine companies are already under our surveillance. Approve it with confidence, nothing will go wrong."

"Yes, yes, I understand."

"How long will the transfer take?"

"The amount is quite large, it will take at least two days."

"Okay, let me know once it’s transferred." Lu Feng asked, "Has Hou Wen urged you?"

"No."

"Alright, I got it, hang up now."

Lu Feng hung up the phone and said, "The finance bureau will transfer all the funds within about two days, I’ve asked them to notify me then."

"Squad leader, are you sure there’s no risk with this money?"

"Certain."

"I’m still a bit worried."

Lu Feng was not a man to hesitate, mainly because the amounts involved were massive.

It wasn’t just 7 billion, he hadn’t even seen 700,000 before.

"There’s nothing to worry about."

Song Guanchao said indifferently.

At that moment, Wu Qiangwei made a phone call.

"Where are you?"

"What’s the matter, Secretary?"

"The Disciplinary Committee can’t delay any longer, someone has already pressured Secretary Wang. Also, an enlarged committee meeting is scheduled for next Wednesday."

"I’ll be there tomorrow, Monday."

After hanging up the phone, Song Guanchao said, "I need to go back tonight, keep an eye on things here."

According to Song Guanchao’s original plan, he indeed intended to find the Disciplinary Committee in the next few days to throw out the evidence and clarify things.

But plans couldn’t keep up with changes, and he hadn’t expected Hou Wen to move so quickly.

That evening, after having dinner with Lu Feng, Song Guanchao set off to return to Lingjiang.

Back home, he called Wu Qiangwei again, mainly discussing the clarification for the next morning.

Wu Qiangwei stated that she would contact Secretary Wang, Director Qin, Secretary Lu, and Mayor Zheng to attend.

The next day, at nine in the morning.

Song Guanchao drove to the City Committee.

As he entered the City Committee Building, the administrative clerks were stunned.

Even as Song Guanchao passed in front of them, they still hadn’t reacted.

"Is that... Secretary Song?"

"Secretary Song is back?"

"He’s probably processing his resignation."

It’s not that they harbored ill will towards Song Guanchao.

But the issue with Song Guanchao was severe.

The car filled with a large amount of cash and gold, whether framed or not, has remained unresolved for nearly a month, suggesting that it’s unlikely for Song Guanchao to turn the situation around.

Being dismissed from public office and the prosecutor’s office filing charges was probably the ultimate outcome for Song Guanchao.

"What are you doing here?" Zeng Li was extremely surprised to see him.

"Just something."

Song Guanchao smiled, knocked, and pushed the door.

"Secretary, I’m here."

"Let’s go," Wu Qiangwei walked over immediately, "Director Qin and Secretary Wang are already here, in the conference room."

"Alright."

The two headed to the fifth floor, where the four had already arrived early in the small conference room.

They looked up and were somehow surprised and shocked to see Song Guanchao.

Wu Qiangwei had only mentioned on the phone that it was to discuss Song Guanchao’s case, not that he would be attending.

But it didn’t matter whether he came or not.

Today, a decision had to be made regarding Song Guanchao’s case.

They pulled out chairs and each took a seat.

Secretary Lu gently cleared his throat, "Secretary Wu, it has been almost a month since Secretary Song’s case. The enlarged meeting is coming up this Wednesday, and we need a decision before then."

He had made his position clear to Wu Qiangwei last time.

If they wanted Song Guanchao to come out of this unscathed, they would have to exchange the Huayuan District.

But Wu Qiangwei had been unresponsive since then.

Since that was the case, he wasn’t waiting any longer.

They laid out the situation openly, whether to transfer it to the police or to swap for the Huayuan District, it had to be decided today.

Wu Qiangwei grunted, "Secretary Song, you say a few words."

Song Guanchao said, "I was framed."

Secretary Lu said, "Secretary Song, these kinds of matters require evidence, and personally, I do believe you. But without evidence, there’s nothing we can do."

Mayor Zheng also said, "Yes, Xiao Song, without evidence, even if we want to help you, we can’t."

Song Guanchao chuckled, pulled out a USB drive, and placed it in front of Secretary Wang, "The evidence, I have it."

As they watched him place the USB drive down and listened to his brief but forceful words, Secretary Lu and Mayor Zheng’s expressions slightly stiffened.

Secretary Lu looked at Mayor Zheng subconsciously, as if to say, are your hands not clean in your dealings?

Mayor Zheng was also confused, wondering where Song Guanchao had obtained the evidence.

Despite his confusion, he felt that Song Guanchao was bluffing.

He just couldn’t have the evidence!
