CHAPTER 192: CHAPTER 93 UNCLE’S CALL (PLEASE SUBSCRIBE AND VOTE FOR MONTHLY TICKET)_2

Zhang Qiang, a retired old detective, has dealt with various criminal organizations and gangsters multiple times, earning numerous accolades for his accomplishments.

After retirement, he was re-employed and became a coach at the Ningjiang Public Security Bureau, specializing in undercover training.

Regarding this veteran, Luo Fei immediately humbly shook hands with him, "Coach Zhang, hello, thank you for making this special trip."

"No need to be polite, Luo Fei. I’ve heard all about your achievements. You’re indeed a promising talent, so I’m very happy to provide special training for you this time."

"You’re too kind..."

After some mutual modesty, Zhang Qiang immediately began his teaching.

And Luo Fei didn’t slack off due to his own abilities; instead, he studied diligently.

Zhang Qiang, an excellent detective himself, was like a living textbook with experiences and knowledge that Luo Fei currently lacked.

So, with this opportunity to learn, Luo Fei certainly wanted to seize it.

...

This way, Luo Fei followed Zhang Qiang’s learning, while everyone was constantly contending with those numbers.

Three days flew by in the blink of an eye.

During this time, there was no call back from Uncle.

Instead, Lin Nan and his wife came by with Lin Tian.

Lin Tian’s condition wasn’t too serious, and after receiving fluids for two days, the hospital said he could be discharged.

Lin Nan and his wife planned to take him home.

But before leaving, to thank Luo Fei and the others, they specially made a silk banner and sent it to their police team.

Then, the couple thanked them profusely before heading home.

As time went on, without any call from Uncle, everyone started to feel a bit restless.

"Do you guys think this person might have sensed something was off?"

"Maybe he never intended to meet from the start and just said those things to placate Wang Pingchuan."

"If that’s the case, then all our efforts would be in vain..."

As more discussions arose, Zhao Donglai also got impatient and asked Wang Pingchuan to make another call to Uncle to test the waters.

Unexpectedly, this time Wang Pingchuan directly refused him.

According to Wang Pingchuan, he seldom contacted Uncle proactively, always waiting for Uncle to contact him. So, if he called too much, it might arouse suspicion.

Moreover, since Uncle had already said to wait, they should just patiently wait.

Though Zhao Donglai still felt uneasy, considering that Wang Pingchuan understood Uncle best, he dared not make any rash move.

Thus, they forced themselves to wait patiently for two more days.

It was on the afternoon of the fifth day, just when they thought for sure the matter had fallen through, that Uncle called!

Wang Pingchuan’s phone was constantly carried by Zhao Donglai, afraid that they might miss a call from the other side.

Therefore, when he saw the incoming call, he excitedly ran to the room detaining Wang Pingchuan and handed him the phone.

At his signal, Wang Pingchuan answered the call.

"Why did it take so long to answer the phone?" Uncle asked.

"Oh, I was outside just now, so I didn’t hear it... By the way, Uncle, are you finished with your work now?"

"Yeah, I’m done. By the way, is your friend in Xuzhou City now? If he is, come out tonight. I’m in this area now."

"We’re not in Xuzhou, but we can buy tickets to come over tonight."

"Alright, I’ll wait for you here."

"Uncle, where should we find you when we arrive?"

"Don’t worry about that now. We’ll talk when you get here."

Uncle was obviously very cautious, not revealing his whereabouts in advance.

Wisely, Wang Pingchuan didn’t ask further and ended the call shortly after.

Beside him, Zhao Donglai, Zhang Fan, and Yang Su had been monitoring the conversation the whole time.

At this moment, Zhang Fan looked at Wang Pingchuan in confusion, "Didn’t Yang Dawei say he was from Dachuan City? How come he’s suddenly in Xuzhou?"

"I’m not sure, but I guess he suspected I got caught, so he specially went to Xuzhou to find out the situation, and after confirming I wasn’t caught, he called."

Unfortunately, no matter how much he calculated, he never expected he wasn’t caught in Xuzhou.

Wang Pingchuan’s explanation suddenly enlightened the three, and they finally understood.

Simultaneously, they also realized that this Uncle was even more cautious and suspicious than they imagined.

Such an adversary, they were uncertain if Luo Fei could handle him...

The three couldn’t help feeling a bit anxious.

But now they were already in a situation where they had to proceed, so no matter how worried they were, they had to follow the original plan.

Zhao Donglai immediately said, "You guys go notify everyone to wait for me in the meeting room right away, and remember to bring Luo Fei."

Then he went outside and called Wucheng and Zheng Changjun respectively.

These days, these two had been keeping a close watch on the case progress, calling from time to time to ask for updates.

But since there had been no news from Uncle, the two had gradually lost hope.

So hearing about the meeting proposal suddenly, both of them were surprised.

Zheng Changjun immediately instructed Zhao Donglai to make sure to turn on the video during the meeting, as they needed to participate in planning the strategy.

Zhao Donglai dared not refuse and agreed immediately.

He then walked into the meeting room.

At this moment, those who received the notification were buzzingly discussing in the meeting room. When Zhao Donglai walked in, they fell silent and eagerly looked at him, waiting for instructions.

"Comrades, as you probably know, just now the target, Uncle, called and set the meeting place at Xuzhou."

"This is undoubtedly a breakthrough progress for the case, so now I’ve gathered everyone for a brief meeting to finalize the specific action plan."

"Additionally, Director Wu from the county and Director Zheng from the city will also participate in the command and arrangement of this operation remotely."

Upon finishing, Zhao Donglai immediately connected the video call with Wucheng and Zheng Changjun.

Soon, both of their faces appeared on the big screen in the meeting room.

"Everyone is here, so Captain Zhao, let’s begin right away," said Zheng Changjun without wasting words.

Zhao Donglai nodded, "According to our prior arrangement, we planned to have Comrade Luo Fei make contact with this person. Meanwhile, our people would deploy in advance around the meeting location as a precaution."

"But the other side is very cautious and hasn’t confirmed a meeting location, so I speculate advance deployment may not work. So at that time, only Luo Fei and Wang Pingchuan can meet the person."

"In this way, the situation may become uncontrollable, especially with Wang Pingchuan. Although he’s willing to cooperate with us now, once outside, no one can guarantee he won’t suddenly betray us. If he does, Comrade Luo Fei will be in great danger!"

After Zhao Donglai finished speaking, everyone wore a solemn expression.

If they couldn’t ensure the undercover officer’s safety, then according to regulations, they might have to cancel the operation plan.

However, since the other side finally agreed to meet, it would be a pity to cancel.

Zheng Changjun also looked at Luo Fei seriously, "Captain Zhang’s concern is very valid, so what do you think, Luo Fei?"

"Wang Pingchuan does pose a big problem, so apart from doing more mental work on him, there’s not much else we can do."

"But I’ve seen Wang Pingchuan’s confession. He found a wife two years ago, and now she’s nine months pregnant. I think maybe we can start from this angle, persuade him to actively cooperate with police operations, and let him see his wife."

"That’s a good idea, Captain Zhao. Later, please talk to Wang Pingchuan about this... Also, Luo Fei, while the Wang Pingchuan issue is temporarily addressed, how confident are you about making contact with the target person without being exposed?"
