Chapter 1209
Liu Zhizhong left, but someone started watching him from behind.
Over in the West Building, Xie Peng stepped away from the office window and hurried to tell Zhang Hongyang.
"Brother Yang, that guy drove his own car. I saw him rushing to the parking lot in the courtyard. What's going on, is there something urgent?"
Zhang Hongyang adjusted his glasses, "Really? How do you know?"
"Oh, I was smoking by my office window and happened to see!"
Zhang Hongyang nodded, "Alright, got it. If he has something urgent, you should ask Secretary Ha."
Xie Peng nodded, "Okay, I'll ask him right away."
Right then, the crafty Xie Peng pulled out his phone in Zhang Hongyang's office, called Hamuer on speakerphone, and used the excuse that there was a document Secretary Liu needed to review and approve. Is it possible to deliver it now to Secretary Liu?
Of course, Hamuer said Secretary Liu was unavailable, had some urgent matter, and went back to Yangzhou, planning to return in about three days.
Xie Peng feigned concern for a moment and then hung up.
Zhang Hongyang heard it clearly, pondered for a moment, and said, "What could that guy have to do in Yangzhou? Hmm?"
With that, Zhang Hongyang's eyes lit up, and he slapped the table, "Could it be his wife Zhao Yan has woken up?"
"What?"
Xie Peng was startled, but quickly shook his head, "No way, Brother Yang? He seemed in a hurry, with a pretty serious expression!"
"Oh..." Zhang Hongyang furrowed his brow, "Then maybe something big did happen in Yangzhou, even Liu Zhizhong, the master of emotion management, can't maintain his composure!"
"Brother Yang, how about... we ask Yangzhou to keep an eye on him?"
Zhang Hongyang considered, "Hmm, that's possible. But, Peng, I suddenly have a new idea about dealing with Liu Zhizhong."
"Huh? Brother Yang, weren't we going to get rid of him in about a year and a half? Why... the change in plans?"
Zhang Hongyang smiled, "If there's another way, that doesn't involve killing, wouldn't that be a better option?"
Xie Peng felt a little uneasy inside, thinking: only kids make choices, adults want it all!
Still, he said, "Okay, Brother Yang, I'll follow your lead. However you say to do it, I'll do it!"
Zhang Hongyang said, "Organize a skilled team for me, have them monitor Liu Zhizhong 24/7. I don't believe him, he's got to have issues. As soon as we have solid evidence, he's finished!"
"But... how do we organize it? My classmates aren't talking to me anymore, lost touch ages ago. If we're spotted, that's a big problem."
Zhang Hongyang's face was serious, "You're really not thinking. Get people to use drones to watch him! Now, Shanan County is famous because of anti-corruption efforts, tourists are starting to come more and more, with the influx of people, who can pinpoint who's operating drones? Liu Zhizhong can't be looking up at the sky all day, can he?"
Xie Peng's eyes lit up, "Hmm, Brother Yang's got a good idea, quite interesting, actually a lot interesting! Then I'll go right away to arrange recruiting drone pilots?"
"Sure. Of course, it must be kept secret, otherwise..." Zhang Hongyang said, then carefully thought through and said, "You haven't been home in a long time, so go back home for a visit, and take care of this matter while you're at it. Funding-wise, I'll cover it, first approve you ten million, I'll have someone transfer it for you to manage."
