Chapter 917: Night Ends and Sunrise

This thorough investigation lasted for more than seven hours that night and ended only when the sky was just beginning to turn light.

There were a total of 203 members of the Municipal Council, 172 of whom were arrested.

The remaining lawmakers are either from fringe factions or a minority of pro-government members. There are also some scattered personnel who were not in the central city when the incident happened, but were on exchanges and visits abroad.

Most of these people are not important figures, and those who are abroad do not dare to return to China easily after hearing the news, so they no longer pose a hindrance.

In addition to these members, the Government Affairs Office also cleared out and arrested the armed forces and major interest groups involved with them, and quickly convicted them. Those who resisted arrest by force and those who clearly endangered national security were shot on the spot.

On the way, Chen Chuan went to the detention room of the Processing Bureau to take a look. Those congressmen who were usually high and mighty now became embarrassed and confused, but some of them still refused to admit defeat. They clamored that they would sue the Privy Council and bring it to an international conference, and make the Government Affairs Office and Qi Weizhao pay the price.

In the past, perhaps we could just let these people yell and curse, but now no one will tolerate it. The security personnel will just go up and give them an injection of medicine to make them quiet down.

Chen Chuan checked the arrested congressmen and key related personnel one by one, and came to the same conclusion as Yao Zhiyi, that "that thing" was indeed not found among these people.

Moreover, he was certain that among the people he saw before him, there were no signs of past possession. After all, as a member of the Pure Sect and possessing the secret teachings of the Pure Sect, he could tell at a glance who had a problem.

Judging from past experience, this kind of existence generally will not leave the central city unless encountering special circumstances. If it really leaves, then things become simple.

If not, then there is a high probability that there is a deeper plan.

Assuming the latter possibility, if not among these people in parliament, where else could it be?

He did think of a place.

While he was thinking, he heard a reminder sound from the world beside his ear. Because the Municipal Assembly Building was completely taken over by the Government Affairs Office, all field information communications were restored from this moment on. On the building screen in the central square, Qi Weizhao's figure appeared and solemnly announced this action to the entire central city.

It was later announced that this action was carried out to safeguard the national security of Dashun, and all relevant personnel had been arrested. The Government Affairs Office also guaranteed in the name of maintaining the legal and reasonable order of the central city with all its efforts, and that no commercial and social activities would be affected.

A lot of people gathered around the square, watching the screen, and more and more people gathered.

Chen Chuan glanced up at the sky and found that the rain had stopped at some point and the air became exceptionally fresh.

He glanced and saw a city patrol's internal food truck parked in the square, and a patrol car parked here, where two processing bureau employees were buying roujiamo there.

He walked over and said, "Give me one."

When the waiter in the dining car saw him, he immediately said, "Yes, sir!" After just a moment, he handed him a hot and fragrant roujiamo.

The two inspectors of the processing bureau happened to be the group of Sun Rao and Wei Yuji. They didn't pay attention at first, because almost all the management of the processing bureau were dispatched tonight and went to the front line. As an inspector, I don't know how many I have encountered tonight, but after seeing him clearly,

Sun Rao was immediately shocked, "Chen, Director Chen?!"

Chen Chuan nodded to him, "Senior Sun."

Sun Rao was so nervous that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. Finally, he reacted and saluted him, "Hello, Director!"

Wei Yuji, who was standing beside him, put down the roujiamo in his hand, saluted him, and said, "Hello, senior!"

Chen Chuan nodded to Sun Rao, then looked at Wei Yuji and said, "I have read your file, hello, Wei Xuedi."

Wei Yuji was usually arrogant, but when Chen Chuan called him "junior", his eyes showed uncontrollable excitement and his body stood straighter.

It was not because of Director Chen Chuan's identity, but because the person standing in front of him was a fighter. As a fighter from Wuyi Academy, such achievement and height were enough to make people look up to him and feel excited.

Chen Chuanshuo said: "Are you in charge of patrolling here tonight?"

Sun Rao said hurriedly, "Yes, we are the last shift. Most of our colleagues are loyal to their duties. There are only a few who are lazy and deserting. We have recorded them and issued punishment reports. Our colleagues will come to replace us later."

Chen Chuan asked a few questions, and Sun Rao was a little restrained, just answering whatever was asked.

Wei Yuji had the vigor of a young man. When he got to the back, he asked, "Director, I saw that all those arrested today are members of the parliament, right? Is the parliament finished from now on?"

Chen Chuan said: "There is still a parliament."

Wei Yuji understood immediately, that means only the parliament is left? He said: "Senior, does that mean we should also be promoted?"

Sun Rao was surprised. How can you ask such a question? Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Why do you think so, junior brother?"

Wei Yuji said boldly: "Without the support of the parliament, I think the area of Bai Niao District must be included in the control of the Government Affairs Office. Otherwise, what should we do if another parliament is formed? Bai Niao District must set up a branch, and that means we have to select capable people. After one group of people go there, we have to promote another group. Senior Sun and I are both capable. Even if we don't go there, we can still make a difference."

Sun Rao felt a little flustered after hearing this. No, junior, don’t involve me in whatever you want to do.

Chen Chuan glanced at Wei Yuji. This junior fellow student saw things more clearly. In the past, the mutual involvement between the White Bird District and the Municipal Council, as well as the internal and external traffic, were the most difficult to deal with.

If we simply deal with the people in the parliament without taking certain measures against the White Bird District, it won't be long before the parliament revives again. Therefore, the safe approach is to control the White Bird District and manage it from the source.

The fact that this junior student was able to see these things and then think about getting promoted shows that he is not only smart, but also has a strong desire to improve himself.

He didn't give any precise answer, but said, "Wait, take your time eating." After that, he raised the roujiamo in his hand to the two people, then turned and left.

The two men quickly raised their hands to salute and watched him leave.

After he walked away, Sun Rao pulled Wei Yuji over and whispered, "Junior, what nonsense did you just say in front of the director?"

Wei Yuji shook off his hand in disdain, straightened his clothes, and said, "Senior, just wait and see. When I get promoted, you will still have to patrol the local area. Even if you are the current patrol inspector, you can't be promoted if it's not me." He added, "Don't worry, I will remember you when the time comes. Although you are not good in every way, your greatest advantage is that you are obedient."

Sun Rao's face suddenly turned dark and he wanted to say something but couldn't.

Wei Yuji said: "Okay, colleagues who are going to take over the shift are about to arrive, go change your clothes." After saying that, he walked straight towards the patrol car.

Sun Rao was stunned for a while before he reacted. He chased after him and said with some embarrassment: "Boy, you are not my boss! I am the team leader!"

After Chen Chuan left the two, he suddenly felt a warmth. He looked to the east. The square was wide and he could see the road in front of him all the way to the end in the distance.

The morning sun was rising slowly, its light shining on everyone's faces, and the buildings and the people present seemed to be covered with a layer of gold.

Sunrise.

He stood facing the rising sun for a while, pulled down the brim of his hat, and walked towards the administrative building. As the guards on both sides saluted him, he walked into the lobby and took the elevator to the floor where the Chief Administrative Officer's office stood.

Qi Weizhao was waiting there in person. When he came in, he shook hands with him and said solemnly, "Director Chen, thank you for your hard work. I have reported the situation here to the central government, and the central government has affirmed our actions." He emphasized, "Director Chen, we were able to handle the parliamentary matter so quickly this time, thanks to your quick and appropriate handling."

Chen Chuanshuo said: "Everyone in the decision-making team is contributing, and I am doing what I should do."

Qi Weizhao agreed with this statement. Everyone in this operation had their own responsibilities to fulfill, but Chen Chuan's responsibility was undoubtedly the heaviest. It was no exaggeration to say that the latter's behavior was directly related to the success of the entire operation.

He originally thought that he only had one night to deal with two extremely dangerous active consciousnesses, which was too short, and he was still quite worried. However, in less than an hour, Chen Chuan easily dealt with both active consciousnesses.

In fact, this also includes the travel time, and the actual time spent on it may be less than ten minutes. This made him have a deeper understanding of Chen Chuan's strength. His previous so-called overestimation was actually still an underestimation.

You must know that the faster this matter is handled, the more beneficial it will be for controlling the subsequent situation, and many possible variables can be eliminated.

He sighed sincerely: "How lucky we are to have Director Chen in Jibei Road!"

After sighing, he turned around and took out some information from his desk and handed it to Chen Chuan: "Manager Xu has obtained the full speaker. He is very cooperative and has explained some things. Some of them are directly related to the previous attack on Director Chen. In addition, there are some information from the secret department. They are all in there. Director Chen can take a look."

Chen Chuan took it and looked at it.

The secret department provided some information about Mr. Chi and his recent series of unusual movements, plus some explanations from Speaker Quan. Combining the two, it can be seen that the entire attack incident is deeply related to Yuanren Company, even if it is not the direct driving force behind it.

In fact, after the matter here in Jibei Road was resolved, he wanted to start dealing with the matters concerning the original body's parents. However, the original company is a world giant with extremely strong foundation and strength. It is not so easy to deal with, not to mention that the headquarters of this giant company is far away in the Linax Federation. What to do requires careful consideration.

Qi Weizhao then reminded him seriously, "Although the operation ended successfully, many things may happen later. Director Chen, we must all be mentally prepared."

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "I will."
