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

Chapter 623 Earthquake in Linzhou's Officialdom: Unearthing a Radish Brings Up Mud

Qin Chuan's process and method are undoubtedly effective, but not everyone can achieve them.

Putting everything else aside, the process by which Zhang Dongbei killed Qian Youcai was actually quite secretive. Even the forensic doctor couldn't find anything suspicious about Tian Youcai's handwriting. But Qin Chuan is different; he has a cheat code.

They found the connection between Qian Youcai's death and Zhang Dongbei, which led to Zhang Dongwei's arrest on criminal charges. Then, through the "Eye of Evil," they discovered evidence of Zhang Dongbei's protectors, resulting in the detention of three of them.

In this way, Zhang Dongbei's criminal gang was like a toothless tiger without its protective umbrella. With Zhang Dongbei arrested, the remaining small fry were no match for him.

Another example is Tang Jun's Paradise Entertainment Group.

It must be said that Tang Zimu was quite capable; he hired the Black and White Duo to deal with Liang Kai, and what he ended up with was an accidental death.

The entire process was remarkably smooth, without any evidence, and the other party was extremely careful to avoid all surveillance during intercourse. The medication used was also just right, and it was an imported, minimally invasive drug with no residue, being quickly metabolized by the body.

Unfortunately, Qin Chuan had been keeping a close eye on this matter, but he still couldn't escape his watchful eye, and Bai Laoqi and Hei San were eventually caught.

That's how he forced Bai Laoqi to make a deal with Tang Zimu, and obtained evidence of Tang Zimu's entire transaction process.

Of course, there were some coincidences involved. If we only have evidence of Tang Zimu's crime and want to connect it with Tang Jun, we still need to get Tang Zimu to talk.

Qin Chuan was confident, but the timeframe was uncertain; it could be a day, an hour, or even a week.

This gave the other side time to react, but what Qin Chuan didn't expect was that Tang Zimu, this good son, had actually kept some of Tang Jun's criminal records.

There were videos, audio recordings, and even some ledgers. In particular, the high-definition surveillance video of Tang Jun's brutal murder of his son-in-law was the final straw that broke the camel's back for Paradise Entertainment Group, Tang Jun, Deputy Secretary Sun, and Deputy Mayor Zhang.

It was precisely because of this small coincidence and accident that Qin Chuan changed his original strategy, sacrificing Tang Zimu as bait, and also luring out the two people behind him and the traitor in the armed police system.

While Qin Chuan was vigorously developing tourism here, and while investigating and collecting clues about the crimes committed by the Paradise Entertainment Group, another earthquake struck the officialdom of Linzhou City.

The arrest of Deputy Secretary Sun and Deputy Mayor Zhang comes less than a month after the arrest of the three people behind Zhang Dongbei Aijia Supermarket Group.

To be honest, the busiest group right now is probably not the Leading Group for the Special Campaign against Organized Crime and Gang-Related Activities, but rather the Linzhou Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection.

The cases of the previous three people are not yet closed. Some things are still being investigated further, some things are still being verified, and some people are still on the list without any action being taken. As a result, two more big tigers have come.

Once inside, the two of them spilled the beans, revealing all the bad things they had done and all the money they had amassed over the years.

Because Tang Jun had all the evidence against them, the two men knew very well that once they were in jail, they would only be treated leniently if they confessed. If they resisted, they wouldn't be able to go to jail, and those people could go free and get away with it.

Throughout history, corrupt officials who have been imprisoned have all confessed, and these two are no exception. Over the years, they have held high positions and committed numerous misdeeds.

In addition, these two people were not born leaders. They rose from humble beginnings, working their way up step by step from clerk, deputy section chief, section chief, deputy director, and director.

How did they rise to their positions over the years? They confessed everything clearly, including who they gave gifts to, who they bribed for official positions, and who they helped to bribe officials.

So, a lot of people from above will be exposed, and a lot of people from below who sold official positions for profit will also be exposed. The other two had previously been involved in projects, personnel changes, and interference in bidding processes, all of which involved a series of vested interests. These two confessed everything, big and small.

The day after the two people were arrested, 13 people from various districts and counties in Linzhou City were also detained.

This is only part of the bribery; for cases involving very large sums of money, the leader was consulted and it was required that measures be taken on the spot.

Besides these, there are also some people involved with smaller sums of money who are not currently within the scope of the first wave of arrests; these need to be sorted out gradually.

The arrest of these two individuals has spread far and wide, creating a climate of fear and unease throughout the officialdom of Linzhou City.
