When Kong Shenghui received the call from Gao Mantang, he felt a headache coming on. Everyone who knew him knew that this old man cared most about his grandson.
Normally, you could get along with him however you liked, but if anyone upset his grandson, he’d be ready to fight.
Gao Mantang was Kong Shenghui’s old leader, so now that the old leader was asking, there was no reason for him not to speak.
Kong Shenghui recounted everything in detail, including recent terrorist attack incidents.
Gao Mantang asked in disbelief, "Are you sure everything he said is true?"
Now, even Gao Mantang began to have doubts about his grandson. He hadn’t been the Director for long, so how did he know terrorists would attack this city?
Could he have been used by soone? This was a possibility, especially since his rapid promotion had made many people envious.
"Not sure, but I trust Zhitao’s judgnt. Old leader, sotis we should let the young people take the lead, only now..."
Although Kong Shenghui trusted Gao Zhitao’s words, they were powerless. Gao Zhitao was put on a three-month leave, which was quite a serious issue.
Who knows what changes might occur in the political scene after three months? Gao Zhitao might even lose his position as Director.
Gao Mantang was furious, gritting his teeth. Soone actually dared to ss with them; he had never suffered such indignation before.
Even though he was old now, Gao Mantang’s temper hadn’t diminished one bit.
After hanging up the phone, Gao Mantang made another call.
"Chief, how’s your health these days?" Gao Mantang cald his mood before speaking.
There weren’t many people in the country who could be addressed by Gao Mantang as "Chief," and judging by his respectful deanor, this person wasn’t soone simple.
As for Xiang Yu, he not only mobilized the Heavenly Dragon Gang but also got Han Rui and the others moving.
mbers of the Falcon Organization were maniacs; they killed recklessly and didn’t value human lives at all.
If they really ca to this city, a series of incidents would definitely occur.
Sure enough, that morning, all the city’s police withdrew and returned to their previous posts.
To outsiders, this strict inspection seed to be just a facade by the relevant departnts, having no real effect and even hindering the city’s economic developnt.
Ultimately, the dia turned their criticism toward Gao Zhitao, who was currently on vacation, accusing him of only performing superficial tasks and not caring about the city’s developnt.
Of course, these public opinions were deliberately manufactured to target Gao Zhitao.
Gao Zhitao was currently staying in the military district, unaware of these happenings outside. Since he was no longer the Director of the Public Security Bureau, his burden was significantly lighter.
Around nine in the morning, Gao Mantang ca into Gao Zhitao’s room, sitting on the edge of the bed.
Gao Zhitao, who had been groggy for the past two days, lazed nonchalantly when he saw his grandfather enter, "What’s up? I still want to sleep."
"Kong Shenghui has already told everything," Gao Mantang said.
Gao Zhitao was montarily stunned. He hadn’t planned on letting his grandfather know, but since the other party already knew, it was no longer a secret.
"I’m not the Director anymore. Whatever happens outside has nothing to do with . I’ll just sleep easy here," Gao Zhitao said and attempted to lay back down to continue sleeping.
Gao Mantang grabbed Gao Zhitao’s shoulders and said, "Kid, you’re a police officer, no matter what, you always are. Even if you’re not the Director now, you still bear the responsibility to protect the lives and properties of the city’s people."
Gao Mantang spoke fervently and passionately.
Gao Zhitao looked at his grandfather, hardly believing it was the first ti he’d heard such words from him.
However, he understood these principles; he just had no way to act with no authority in hand, despite having plans.
"Forget it, even if they do co, I can’t stop them alone," Gao Zhitao said, disheartened.
Gao Mantang smiled, "As long as you believe it’s the right thing, I’ll support you all the way."
There was a lot of confidence in Gao Mantang’s words, giving Gao Zhitao imnse courage.
Gratefulness filled Gao Zhitao’s eyes as he looked at Gao Mantang, "Are you saying you’re going to give command of the army?"
Gao Mantang coughed, "Don’t overthink. I’m just encouraging you verbally."
"Leave alone, I want to sleep," Gao Zhitao said and lay back on the bed, covering his head with the quilt.
Seeing this, Gao Mantang patted his shoulder, "Kid, don’t be so greedy. Do you know how many soldiers are in the military district? If I let you lead them, wouldn’t you have more power than I do?"
Hearing his grandfather’s slightly relaxed tone, Gao Zhitao sat up with a grin, "Even half is fine, half is enough."
Gao Mantang glared, "One battalion, I can only mobilize one battalion for you to use, and that’s already breaking the rules."
For his grandson, Gao Mantang would do anything, even deploying a battalion of soldiers under Gao Zhitao’s command.
It sounded like a joke, but it happened with Gao Mantang.
"That’s enough," Gao Zhitao nearly jumped up in excitent.
What he lacked were people. As long as he had subordinates, he’d definitely ensure the city’s safety.
Gao Mantang was throwing caution to the wind, placing his trust in his grandson.
"Do your best and don’t embarrass your grandfather," Gao Mantang said with a face full of expectation, looking at Gao Zhitao.
"Don’t worry, Grandpa, I won’t let you down." With renewed vigor, Gao Zhitao looked lively and vibrant.
Even a battalion’s strength was nearly on par with what they had in the police force.
Gao Mantang was already prepared. As he and Gao Zhitao stepped out, outside a battalion had already assembled.
Each soldier was fully ard and full of spirit, led by Battalion Commander Zhang Dacheng.
Zhang Dacheng stood in front of Gao Mantang, saluting a standard military salute, "Report, Chief, the Third Battalion is ready and can set out at any ti."
Gao Mantang nodded in satisfaction, then announced loudly, "The training location this ti is in the city. You must be careful not to fire unless absolutely necessary. Additionally, all your actions will be under the command of Gao Zhitao."
Though not a soldier, Gao Zhitao grew up in the army, so everybody knew him.
Gao Zhitao stood there seriously, returning a standard salute to the soldiers, suddenly feeling these soldiers weren’t that annoying, rather, they seed quite endearing.
The soldiers also returned the salute.
Gao Mantang turned, giving his grandson a aningful look before leaving. Now was a test for Gao Zhitao, to see how capable he truly was...
