Chapter 782: Chapter 782: Having Something to Rely On
The reason for their frowning was not because of Gan Quancai’s attitude at the moment, but because of the way Gan Quancai addressed the figure that appeared.
"Company commander?"
Generally, such a title would only be used in the military. Could it be that Gan Quancai and his group actually had some connection with the military?
The moment Zhang Ming considered this, a dark shadow flashed across his face. He finally understood the source of Gan Quancai’s confidence!
Both Xiao Yifei and Zhang Ming were well aware that in Huaxia, the military sphere was separate from the circle of public officials. The two did not mix, and generally, there would be no contact between them.
Whether he was a department head or a provincial governor, without a special reason, it was impossible for one to interfere with the military’s domain. Likewise, under normal circumstances, this was mutual; the military also could not interfere with the work of public officials.
However, there are always exceptions. If there were some issues involving state secrets, the military’s authority would far exceed that of public officials, in all situations.
After all, the military’s primary role was to protect the country and defend the homeland.
It was precisely this type of exceptional situation that Zhang Ming feared was unfolding before him!
Although he knew that Rong Fang had a clean record, if the military insisted on taking Rong Fang away on the pretext of state secrets, there was absolutely nothing he could do! And from the current situation, it seemed that things were indeed developing in the direction he least wanted to see.
Even though Zhang Ming’s operations in Yanjing City were quite successful, he really had no connections within the military. Therefore, facing the situation at hand, he began to worry even more.
At this moment, he even didn’t know what to say. He could only stand there, watching as Gan Quancai, with a radiant smile on his face, welcomed the person with the rank of Lieutenant from outside the hospital room. Following behind this military person were several other soldiers.
The hospital room, which was quite spacious, suddenly became a bit crowded as the military personnel entered.
"Why is your face swollen?"
Upon seeing Gan Quancai, the military man addressed as Captain Lin by Gan Quancai couldn’t help but ask with some confusion.
When Gan Quancai heard Captain Lin’s question, his expression suddenly stiffened. He raised his head, his eyes filled with hatred as he glanced at Xiao Yifei, but he quickly turned away again.
"Haha, Captain Lin, it’s nothing. I just accidentally bumped it. It’s a minor matter, no need to pay too much attention," said Gan Quancai to Captain Lin with a laugh. "Right now, let’s first take care of our business."
However, it was at this moment that Zhang Ming, witnessing everything in front of him, felt his pupils sharply constrict. Initially, when he heard Gan Quancai calling this military person "Captain," he had his doubts.
A company commander, in theory, didn’t have much authority.
But the moment Gan Quancai saw this "Captain," Zhang Ming’s heart sank.
Because on this "Captain," he clearly saw a pistol flashing with a cold light, and not just on him—each of the soldiers behind him was also armed with a pistol.
And none of the soldiers who were allowed to carry firearms outwardly were simple!
Both Zhang Ming and Xiao Yifei knew very well that even if this Captain Lin who had arrived didn’t have a high rank, the significance he represented was far beyond what an ordinary company commander could represent.
Similarly, Xiao Yifei, upon seeing all this, couldn’t help but deeply frown.
"Could it be that the power behind Gan Quancai represents the military?"
His heart was full of curiosity and bewilderment, yet as soon as Xiao Yifei began to entertain this speculation, he immediately dismissed it, knowing that if the force behind Gan Quancai truly represented the military, they would have no reason to take action against Zhang Ming.
After all, the two had no quarrel with each other, and the military had no necessity to target Zhang Ming; such an action would bring them no benefit.
Xiao Yifei also realized that since this military member had appeared, it indicated that even if Gan Quancai’s power did not come from the military, there must be some connection with the military.
Witnessing all this, Xiao Yifei was even more certain that the force behind Gan Quancai was far from simple!
"Commander Lin, shall we sort out the situation in front of us first..."
It was at this moment, Gan Quancai’s voice rang out again, standing beside Commander Lin with an obsequious smile that made one sick, he stretched out his hand, pointed at Zu Gang lying on the hospital bed, and fawningly said to Commander Lin.
Upon seeing this development, Zhang Ming couldn’t help but furrow his brow.
In principle, with Gan Quancai’s status, there was absolutely no need for him to be so sycophantic towards a mere commander. Even if the two were not from the same system, in terms of rank, Gan Quancai was far higher than the commander.
Therefore, Zhang Ming felt an ominous premonition about the situation.
He knew with Gan Quancai’s personality, he would never stoop to flatter a mere commander like this, and his actions proved that the power behind Commander Lin was also extraordinarily formidable!
Frankly, Gan Quancai’s attitude was an acknowledgment of everything Commander Lin represented or rather, it was because of the person behind Commander Lin that Gan Quancai behaved as he did now.
However, before Zhang Ming could further process this realization or say anything, Commander Lin suddenly made a move.
Commander Lin waved his hand without a word, and the soldiers behind him equipped with guns immediately started towards Rong Fang. From this posture, they seemed ready to take Rong Fang away on the spot!
Rong Fang, seeing this development, especially as the military personnel approached him, couldn’t help but reveal a trace of panic in his eyes, continuously shrinking his body.
"I didn’t say anything, I didn’t say anything at all!"
Rong Fang turned his head, his body shaking as he spoke to Gan Quancai in a panic, and after speaking and noticing no response from Gan Quancai—who coldly watched him—he turned to look at Zhang Ming: "Commander Zhang... Commander Zhang, you must save me! They can’t take me away! They really can’t!"
The way Rong Fang was behaving now fully reflected his terror.
"Commander Lin... hello..."
In fact, even before Rong Fang spoke, Zhang Ming had already stood in front of the hospital bed, and as he saw the military men approaching Rong Fang, he couldn’t help but raise his head to address Commander Lin, "I am Zhang Ming, the Police Chief of Yanjing City, and Rong Fang used to be my secretary. Moreover, he is implicated in a case..."
Although Zhang Ming’s words were not finished, his meaning was quite clear.
Seeing this, the military men walking towards Rong Fang involuntarily halted their steps, turned their heads, and looked towards Commander Lin.
"Hahaha, so it’s Commander Zhang."
Upon hearing Zhang Ming’s words, Commander Lin lifted his head, squinting his eyes to scrutinize Zhang Ming as if to confirm his identity. After recognizing Zhang Ming, he furrowed his brows sharply, turned back, and with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes glanced at Gan Quancai, who was standing beside him with a smug expression. Commander Lin then turned back to Zhang Ming to speak, "My apologies, I didn’t notice earlier."
