Chapter 486: Chapter 447 Shocking the Nation_2
Around nine fifty, several women, some dressed innocently and others glamorously, also entered the hotel. Standing nearby, Feng Kuang said, “I didn’t expect they would hire escorts tonight. This will make things even easier.”
Chen Le nodded in agreement. This would provide an excellent headline for the news: Deputy Mayor openly visiting prostitutes, partaking in group lewdness. This headline alone would be enough to cast a shadow over Li Guohua.
At ten o’clock sharp, Chen Le relayed his instructions to Feng Kuang once again, who then promptly led his team into the hotel. They navigated smoothly to the top floor. Upon reaching the doorway of the stairwell, they were met by several plainclothes officers, who said in a low voice, “Feng Squad, are we ready to proceed?”
Checking his watch, Feng Kuang saw that it was only ten past ten and replied, “Hold on, according to the information we’ve gathered, their gathering won’t end until after eleven. This is just the beginning. Let’s wait a bit longer. We’ll commence the operation at half past ten.”
This kind of tedious waiting could be excruciating, but these people were the elite of the police force, familiar with this type of stake-out situation.
Time quickly approached half past ten. Feng Kuang’s facial expression morphed from its previous casualness to stern seriousness. He ordered in a low voice, “Xiao Wang, Xiao Zhou, you two will enter as bodyguards first. Our informer is in the presidential suite number two. You need to secure the two staff members and two security guards as soon as possible. The rest of us will act immediately once you succeed.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhou both performed some warm-up movements, and then they walked in casually. At this moment, a security guard came to greet them as they approached the stairway entrance, “Sorry, gentlemen, this is the Presidential Suite, you cannot enter.”
“We are the bodyguards for Mr. Deng in the second presidential suite. We have been stationed here these past few days. Our boss just assigned us a task,” Xiao Zhou replied promptly.
The security guard considered this, then picked up his walkie-talkie and announced, “Front Desk, Front Desk, please check with Mr. Deng in the second presidential suite to see if his bodyguards have gone out.”
Although the Liangxi Grand Hotel is a government hotel, it operates in line with international standards. This level of service was indeed worthy of the five-star status of Liangxi Grand Hotel.
At this moment, the door to the second private suite opened. Two men in their thirties came out and went directly to the front desk. One of them asked, “What’s going on? You’re familiar with my bodyguards, why are you checking?”
The other man placed his hands behind his back, silently gesturing. When Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhou saw the hand signal, they nodded knowingly. Xiao Wang walked over. When he got close, the four men sprung into action, they were all experts in hand-to-hand combat, including Mr. Deng’s two men who were elite from the military.
In the blink of an eye, all four of them had been subdued. Feng Kuang burst in with three others, instantly showing their police badges and spoke quietly, “We are from the Public Security Bureau. You must unconditionally cooperate with our investigation. Xiao Wang, keep these four under strict control. If anyone dares to speak, shoot them immediately. We can attribute it to desperate resistance.”
The comment was an intimidation tactic by Feng Kuang to keep them in fear. Upon seeing them nodding their heads in terror, Feng Kuang stood up and commanded, “Xiao Zhou, you’ll pair up with Old Deng, I’ll pair up with Old Xiong and Chen Bin you’ll take the photos. The others will provide backup. Let’s move.”
When the team reached the entrance of the Presidential suite, Feng Kuang didn’t bother to knock. He pointed his Type 64 pistol at the door lock and fired three continuous shots, turning the lock into shards. Before those inside had a chance to react, Feng Kuang and the others had already stormed in.
Currently, in the living room of the Presidential suite, four pairs of men and women were engaged in various sordid acts, their bare bodies on display. Li Guohua was in the same state, naked, with a woman both in front and behind him, each striking a provocative pose.
Upon seeing Feng Kuang and his team, the women immediately began to scream. Chen Bin, who had followed Feng Kuang into the suite, quickly raised his camera, snapping numerous photos before anyone had a chance to react.
When Li Guohua saw this, he instantly understood. He knew Feng Kuang – Secretary to Chen Le of the City Public Security Bureau. Since he was leading the team, the rest didn’t need to be said.
In response, Li Guohua kicked off the woman in front of him. His naked body felt no discomfort in the open air. He looked at Feng Kuang and spoke with a deep voice, “Feng Kuang, you and Chen Le dare to plot against me? Do you know who I am? There are people you can’t afford to offend. Let me tell you, even if I, Li Guohua, resign from public office, it would be as easy as crushing an ant to crush you.”
Having said this, Li Guohua calmly picked up his clothes, took his time putting them on, and then smiled, “Feng Kuang, you’re a smart man. But there’s no future with Chen Le, since he’s simply following Nie Zhenbang. If you followed me instead, I promise you, within a year, you’d be the Deputy Director of the Liangxi City Public Security Bureau. Once I become the mayor and Nie Zhenbang is driven away, you’ll be the Director of the Public Security Bureau, or even the Secretary of Politics and Law Committee. By then, you’d be a standing committee member of the Liangxi Municipal Committee. Just think about it, you’re only in your twenties and already a deputy department-level cadre. Your future would be very promising.”
“Wow, Vice Mayor Li, what a tactic for winning people over. Crush me, huh? That does make me a little scared.” Feng Kuang chuckled with playful interest.
Looking at Li Guohua indifferently, he said, “I wonder if Vice Mayor Li knows, after my demobilization, the first person I met was Mayor Nie, he arranged this job for me. Do you think I would be bought by you?”
After that, Feng Kuang’s tone changed, and he commanded sternly, “Get all these women dressed. Capture these people and bring them back to the bureau for sudden interrogation. The charge of group licentiousness is not a minor one.”
At midnight, Nie Zhenbang was still waiting in his office for news from Chen Le. His phone rang, and as soon as he picked it up, Chen Le’s excited voice came through, “Mayor, we’ve nabbed them. All in the act. We’ve already developed the photos, and you wouldn’t believe how unseemly Li Guohua looks. I’m on my way back now with the photos.”
On this end, Nie Zhenbang hung up the phone and immediately dialed Zhao Xinglong, “Xing Long, get your computer ready. I’ll send over the files soon, it must be on the news by tomorrow. Otherwise, if the Li family gets prepared, we’ll be on the back foot.”
This matter not only concerned Li Guohua’s future, but also the reputation of the Li family. By tomorrow, given the Li family’s sources, they might know within the next three hours, and once they have time to block the media, this whole operation would fall through.
…
At 8:00 AM, Elder Li of the Li family was in his villa with a gloomy expression, rap-rapping his cane.
“Disgrace, he’s a disgrace to our family! Sent him to the United States, and he only brought back such disgraceful behavior? Shameless! Utterly shameless!”
“Dad, we received the news after 5:00 AM. Some newspapers had already been distributed. Despite trying hard, we were only able to intercept some of the newspapers. Southern Metropolis, Huaxia Youth, and Jingcheng Morning News slipped through our fingers. By now, I’m afraid the whole country knows. What do you want to do about it?” said a man in his fifties standing beside Elder Li.
This was Li Guohua’s second uncle, Li Jianghe. His head was down as if blaming himself for not managing well, yet the smirk leaking through his eyes betrayed him.
