368: Chapter 357: Something Happened 368: Chapter 357: Something Happened After finishing lunch, Song Yun changed his clothes and planned to go out for a walk.
After all, it was a beautiful sunny day outside, and staying cooped up at home all day was not a good idea.
But just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Li Yueyue.
“Are you planning to chase girls this early, huh?
Have you forgotten that you’re still not well?”
“Don’t think nonsense; I’m just going for a walk.” Song Yun flicked Li Yueyue’s forehead with his index finger slightly bent and said, “You go ahead and take care of your business later; I’ll probably pick you up after my walk.”
“Oh, just don’t go too far.” Li Yueyue held her forehead as if Song Yun had really exerted too much force just now.
Song Yun smiled and drove out.
After leaving the house, he took a turn towards headquarters.
This afternoon, he planned to get in touch with the intelligence organization “Spider Web” that he created, having them investigate the recent underground disturbances in Sunan.
In the twenty-first century, the fastest thing that spread was information.
If one could control a massive piece of information, it would be like having the key to the door of success.
Song Yun could not afford to make a mistake at this critical juncture.
Upon arriving at headquarters, Song Yun went to his office.
This time, no one disturbed him; everyone knew the current situation was tense, and if Song Yun came to headquarters, he would definitely be dealing with some documents.
“Bob, help me investigate the power dynamics in Sunan and then send it to my email,” Song Yun dialed a number and said.
“Alright, anything else?”
“Also, check out the information on the Yu Hang’s Xiao Family.
I need to make a trip there soon.” After Song Yun finished speaking, he hung up the phone and looked at the stacks of documents on his desk with a headache.
Finally, after dealing with the documents, Zhao Yan rushed in, looking anxious, and said, “Boss, it’s not good.
Three of our nightclubs have been sealed off.”
“Don’t panic, talk to me slowly,” Song Yun soothed Zhao Yan’s emotions and said.
Such situations were quite ordinary at times like this, but Song Yun was keen to know which cop had the audacity to mess with him now.
“Just now, the managers of the three nightclubs called me.
They said a bunch of cops suddenly showed up and sealed off the places without a word.
Those three managers are on their way to headquarters right now,” Zhao Yan said with concern.
“Do you think someone is plotting against us secretly?”
“It’s hard to say, we don’t know who it is yet.” Song Yun put his legs up on the desk and said.
“It’s rare for someone to dare to seal my clubs in Sunan.
Let me call Wang Dong and see if it can be resolved first.”
Zhao Yan nodded and sat down on the sofa beside.
Song Yun then called Wang Dong.
“Director Wang, it has been a long time since we last met.”
“When you show up unannounced, you surely need something.
Just tell me, I’ll help if I can,” Wang Dong laughed heartily on the other side.
“Here’s the situation.
Someone under your command has gone blind.
They sealed off three of my nightclubs today.
Could you help me deal with this?”
“That’s news to me; how could I not know about it?
Every closure has to be approved from above.
Hold on, I’ll check into it.” Wang Dong said, frowning, and then rang a bell signaling for a secretary to come in from outside the door.
“Check who’s been doing off-the-books work recently.”
The secretary nodded and made several calls, asking various team captains and district directors, but nobody admitted to it.
This was getting stranger.
Could it be that they were fake cops?
Drawing a cold breath, Wang Dong picked up the phone again and said, “Song Yun, I haven’t received any information about this.
Are you sure you aren’t mistaken?”
“That’s impossible.
Three of my nightclubs have been sealed off.
How could I be wrong?” Song Yun spoke indifferently.
“Look, the managers of those three nightclubs are on their way here.
I’ll ask them about it later.”
After hanging up the phone, Song Yun crossed his hands with his thumbs twiddling.
“Zhao Yan, call them and find out what’s going on.”
Zhao Yan nodded, but before she could make the call, Li Tang burst in.
“Boss, something’s wrong.
A bunch of cops have shown up outside and they want to see you.”
“Cops?” Song Yun snorted with laughter.
“Well, well, I’m here looking for someone, and they come knocking at my door.
Zhao Yan, come with me and let’s see who’s got the nerve of a leopard.”
Indeed, several police cars were outside the headquarters’ back door.
However, these were not normal police cars, as they bore the words “SWAT” on them.
SWAT?
Song Yun narrowed his eyes at the two words, then looked beyond the police cars.
Following behind them was a large truck, seemingly packed with people.
Two squads of armed police rested on the truck.
Damn it, SWAT and armed police together—that meant serious business.
Could it be they wanted to arrest him today?
Song Yun coolly observed the armed police jumping off the truck as the squad leader, unconcerned by the gazes of bystanders, began to roll call.
“Boss, what the hell is this about?” Li Tang took a cold breath.
“Do they intend to take down our stronghold?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.
There must be a trick to it.” Song Yun dialed Wang Dong again.
“Wang Dong, my headquarters is surrounded by cops, led by the armed police and SWAT.
Have you received any notice about this?”
“I can’t believe it.
Why haven’t I received any related documents?” Wang Dong said anxiously.
“Song Yun, hand the phone to someone on the other side so I can ask them myself.”
“Mhm,” Song Yun grunted and approached the cops, then found a leader to speak to.
“Director Wang would like to speak with you.”
The leader took a long look at Song Yun and then took the phone from his hand.
“What would Director Wang like to instruct?”
“You’re from which unit?
Who gave you the right to cause a disturbance?
Withdraw at once,” Wang Dong, who could speak as an equal to Song Yun, did not cut the same courtesy to his subordinates and started yelling.
“I apologize, Director Wang, but this order came from the bureau itself, and you have no authority to interfere,” the leader said before hanging up the phone.
An order from the Public Security Bureau?
Song Yun didn’t think he had offended anyone at that level.
Besides, how could someone from above bypass the city and directly issue orders?
Hearing the busy tone, Wang Dong was so angry that he threw the phone violently.
“Damn those bastards at the bureau, what are they trying to do, overtaking me to make arrests?”
But being angry wasn’t going to solve anything.
After Wang Dong downed the water in his cup, he shouted, “Xiao Liu, call Director Wang for me.
I’ve got something to report.”
