Chapter 2069: Chapter 2069: Lin Yi Becomes Team Leader

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Meanwhile, in the lounge, the conversation continued, focusing on the upcoming operation.

“Secretary Liang, what do you think of this Ling Han?” Chen Bingqiang asked with a smile.

“I think she’s quite good. She’s thought of everything very thoroughly,” Liang Ruoxu replied with a smile.

“And I believe I’ve heard of her before. If I’m not mistaken, she’s quite capable and has received several second-class merit awards.”

“Yes, yes, that’s her,” Liu Chunjiang chimed in with a laugh.

“She’s one of the top talents in our public security force.”

“If Director Liu says so, her capabilities must be solid,” Liang Ruoxu added.

“But I’m not an expert in this area. I’m just here in name; you all should decide on the specifics without worrying too much about my opinion.”

“That won’t do; you’re the team leader. At crucial moments, we still need you to make the call,” Liu Chunjiang insisted.

“There’s no need to be so formal. There are no outsiders here; you all can handle it.”

“Well, thank you, Secretary Liang, for your trust.”

Chen Bingqiang didn’t comment much on the matter either.

Although capturing Wei Jianlong was important, it wasn’t something that required his direct involvement.

So, like Liang Ruoxu, he was more of a figurehead in this situation.

The actual decisions and strategies were left to Liu Chunjiang.

“It’s about time. Everyone should be here by now. Let’s head to the meeting so we don’t waste Secretary Liang’s time.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Alright alright alright, let’s go now.”

The three of them left the lounge and headed to the meeting room.

Meanwhile, the teams from both precints had already gathered in the meeting room.

Although many people were present, the room was very quiet, with everyone deep in thought.

Everyone’s expression was different as if they were all thinking about something.

Han Zhongyu was fiddling with his phone.

At first, his expression was serious, but it soon lightened, and he showed the content on his phone to Ling Han.

“Director Liu just sent me a message. He said Secretary Liang has a very good impression of you and praised you quite a bit. You’re definitely going to be in charge of this operation.”

“Don’t worry, leader. There won’t be any issues.”

Han Zhongyu nodded, feeling that his goal had been achieved, allowing him to attend the meeting with peace of mind.

At that moment, footsteps were heard outside the meeting room. Li Xianghui, who was sitting next to Lin Yi, nudged him quietly.

“Put your phone away and be serious. The big leaders from the city are here today, so don’t act too casual.”

“Alright.”

Lin Yi reluctantly put his phone away, not taking the situation too seriously.

He figured that the highest-ranking leader would probably be Chen Bingqiang, and given their relationship, even if he played with his phone, it wouldn’t be a big deal.

At that moment, the door to the meeting room opened, and Liang Ruoxu and the other two walked in.

The moment Lin Yi saw Liang Ruoxu, he was taken aback.

She was in charge of economic matters—what was she doing at this kind of meeting?

It didn’t make any sense.

Lin Yi felt a bit uneasy.

If Liang Ruoxu found out that he had become a police officer without telling her, she would definitely confront him about it later.

Initially, Liang Ruoxu hadn’t noticed Lin Yi, but she soon felt a sharp gaze directed at her.

Instinctively, she looked up and was surprised to see Lin Yi. She hadn’t expected to run into him here.

Chen Bingqiang was also surprised.

He knew that Lin Yi had joined the Xingshan precinct.

He also knew that members of the Xingshan precinct would be attending the meeting today.

However, he hadn’t expected Lin Yi, with his laid-back attitude, to attend such a boring meeting.

However, Liang Ruoxu quickly composed herself and calmly returned to her seat.

Still, she couldn’t help but wonder if Lin Yi had taken up being a police officer as some sort of life experience.

After pondering for a while, she thought it was possible.

With Lin Yi’s personality, he was indeed capable of doing such a thing.

After taking her seat, Liang Ruoxu gave a brief opening speech. While it wasn’t particularly substantive, it was a necessary formality.

Once she finished, she handed the floor over to Chen Bingqiang.

He and Liu Chunjiang were the real leaders of the meeting, and they would decide the subsequent arrangements.

During Liang Ruoxu’s speech, Lin Yi kept his head down, pretending he didn’t know her.

“The main focus of today’s meeting is the capture of Wei Jianlong. Reliable information indicates that over the past few years, more than four tons of contraband have passed through his hands. This matter must be handled with the utmost seriousness. Today, we’re forming a special task force to target Wei Jianlong and his criminal gang.”

Chen Bingqiang announced as the attendees listened intently.

However, Lin Yi was still distracted, fiddling with his phone and not paying much attention to what was being said.

Liang Ruoxu had already sent him a message on WeChat, demanding an explanation after the meeting.

The message was brief, just instructing him not to leave after the meeting.

It made Lin Yi feel like he was in school.

Back then, students in fights would say, “If you dare, don’t run after school.”

Li Xianghui, noticing that Lin Yi was still playing with his phone, lightly kicked him under the table to make him focus.

Lin Yi had no choice but to put his phone away and listen to Chen Bingqiang’s speech.

“The main points of the meeting are what I just outlined. Now, let’s move on to the assignment of roles.”

“The overall commander of this operation will be Secretary Liang.”

As per the usual protocol, the room erupted in applause.

“The deputy commanders will be Director Liu and me. We’ll be overseeing the entire operation from Zhonghai.”

Again, there was a round of applause.

At this moment, Liu Guangxian and Han Zhongyu exchanged a glance, their intentions clear.

In addition to these three, there will also be a team leader responsible for on-site command in this operation.

Both parties were keen to secure this position.

“Boss Liu, Han’s expression seems off. He keeps smiling at you, looking very confident,” Li Xianghui whispered.

“I think he pulled some strings behind the scenes. I was a step too slow, or he wouldn’t be so relaxed,” Liu Guangxian replied.

“It seems this team leader role will be going to someone else.”

“I don’t mind, as long as we catch the guy. That’s what really matters.”

“It’s good that you have that attitude.”

On the other side, Han Zhongyu sat back in his chair, crossing his legs confidently. He already knew what was coming next.

Ling Han was undoubtedly going to be named the team leader for this operation.

“Besides the three of us, we also need an on-site team leader for this operation, so we’ve decided that the task force leader will be Lin Yi from the Xingshan precint.”
