The Beautiful County Magistrate
Chapter 424: You still have the mood to fool around with women, hurry up and execute the plan!

Chapter 424: Chapter 424: You still have the mood to fool around with women, hurry up and execute the plan!

With such energy, the person orchestrating from behind must have a significant identity. Who could it be?

Subconsciously, Xu Qianli thought of Lu Xingtian.

If one were to say who his biggest opponent in Zhongzhou City was, it would undoubtedly be Lu Xingtian.

He had sabotaged his son and nephew, both of whom were doomed to be executed by firing squad, causing his career to suffer and making next year’s appointment as City Secretary uncertain. It was normal for him to strike at Xu Qianli.

But upon closer thought, something seemed off, just a bit off.

After all, Lu Xingtian had just set up his scheme, using Feng Jiang’s three billion as bait, hoping to lure Xu Qianli into a trap, and then forcefully move against him, presuming that he could handle Xu Qianli.

Considering the timing, Old Zhao had already been bought off and this trap had been set much earlier; why would Lu Xingtian bother with that three billion plot? It seemed redundant.

To say that he had set up two traps didn’t quite add up either; obviously the one in Qingshan Town was more dangerous, so why didn’t he initiate the more severe one?

Vaguely, Xu Qianli felt that the incident in Qingshan Town wasn’t Lu Xingtian’s doing, but rather the work of someone else. However, at the moment, he truly couldn’t guess who it might be.

It couldn’t be that second-generation rich kid Lin Feng, could it? Did he have the capacity?

His cousin, Lin Monong, was indeed formidable and had decent tactics, but would she really risk so many lives just to strike at him?

Unable to figure it out, Xu Qianli temporarily stopped thinking about it and started to address the issue at hand.

Xu Qianli first had the town government issue a notice that all village heads, party secretaries, and accountants of every village in Qingshan Town must attend a meeting at the township in the afternoon, without any exceptions.

Additionally, he dispatched more personnel to visit all the villages within the land requisition plan to understand the compensation situation.

As soon as any investigation revealed that the compensation had not been paid out, claiming that it was withheld by the township administration, similar to the situation in Zhao Village, he would immediately deploy police forces to arrest all village heads, party secretaries, and accountants for strict interrogations, to see if they too had been bought by the hidden manipulator.

The investigation into the male corpse also needed to be expedited, to quickly clear up his identity information and social connections, and to see if they could figure out who the puppet master was.

Confronted with the potential arrest of the village party secretaries and village heads, Xu Qianli, fearing that Qingshan Town’s police force wouldn’t suffice and to prevent possible chaos, ordered Wu Kai to send police reinforcements immediately.

But what happened? Wu Kai, with great indignation, called to report that his decision to send police support to Qingshan Town had been blocked by Zeng Yong.

Zeng Yong was someone Xu Qianli had Ge Changhong promote, but after assuming the position of the newly appointed Chief of Public Security, he became extremely distant from Xu Qianli.

Learning of possible disturbances in Qingshan Town today, he strongly refused to dispatch police support and even reprimanded Wu Kai, telling him to just focus on doing his own job.

Upon hearing this, Xu Qianli felt inexpressibly aggravated.

The reason he had Ge Changhong promote Zeng Yong was that he saw him as upright in the past, but he didn’t expect such a rotten attitude, making it difficult not to get angry.

Unable to call in county police for support, Xu Qianli simply made another phone call.

In a clubhouse in the eastern part of Zhongzhou City, a man in his forties with a tattoo of Zhong Kui on his back was lying on a massage table, enjoying himself.

Beside him, two attractive women wearing very skimpy outfits, essentially just brassieres, were busily massaging him with essential oils.

The two beautiful women had exquisite techniques; their hands were gentle, making the man extremely comfortable. Getting carried away, he pulled one of the beauties onto the massage table, and yanked away the bothersome brassiere to start kissing her.

Far from resisting, the woman hugged his head tighter, deliberately trying to please him.

As the man was enjoying himself, suddenly someone came in, and a woman with a cold expression quickly entered the room.

"Who the fuck is screwing up my good time?"

"I didn’t see your old man here."

The man, furious, glared at the newcomer.

As soon as he realized who it was, the man’s face changed abruptly, and he quickly put on a smile, hurriedly let go of the beautiful woman, and got off the massage bed.

"What wind blew you in?"

"If you have orders, just a call or message would do, why bother to come in person, you’re putting yourself out too much."

The man was being obsequious to the woman, nodding and bowing, short of kneeling and kowtowing.

The woman looked at the man as if he were a dead dog and said indifferently, "Such a big incident occurred in Qingshan Town, and our plans have been sensed by Xu Qianli. And here you are, still in the mood to play with women!"

"What? Trouble in Qingshan Town, and Xu Qianli knows about our plan?"

"How is that possible?" asked the man in disbelief. "I have always been extremely secretive—how could he know?"

The woman said, "It seems you don’t know anything yet. Zhao Laogen of the Zhao Family’s estate went out of his mind and started early, led the villagers to make trouble, and just happened to be bumped into by Xu Qianli, who got a hint of something. Now he’s investigating all the villages involved in the land acquisition in Qingshan Town and is arresting the people you’ve bribed. It looks like they’ll all be caught soon. The boss has spent so much money, yet this is the result. You should consider the consequences for yourself!"

Hearing this, the man trembled with fear; the woman before him was not to be trifled with, and her master was even more formidable. If they were angered, would he still have a good outcome?

Breaking out in a cold sweat, with a forced smile, the man said, "Don’t worry; I will fix this immediately. I’ll contact those I’ve bribed and have them act at once, ensuring Xu Qianli won’t escape unscathed. With this disturbance in Qingshan Town, the development plan will be utterly ruined, and the master’s plan can still proceed smoothly."

"Just talk is no use. Get to it now!" said the woman.

"Alright, alright, I’m on it," the man said, hastily picking up his phone, opening a special group chat, and sending a string of messages to order the village party secretaries and mayors he had secretly bribed to take action and disrupt Qingshan Town immediately!

After sending the message, the man said, "Just wait and see; as soon as one of those villages moves, it will be enough to give Xu Qian a hard time."

"Good, well done; now you can die."

The woman suddenly smiled, slashed towards the man’s throat with her hand, and a flash of cold light streaked by as the short knife in her hand effortlessly sliced open the man’s throat.

The two delicate massage girls on the side screamed in terror—one trembling all over, the other running away scared stiff.

"Think you can run?"

"Dream on!"

The woman quickly chased after, catching up to the fleeing massage girl in a bound and stabbed her in the back. Then, she turned to pierce the other in the heart with her knife, slaughtering all three of them.

After killing them, the woman took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off her hands, then busily took out her phone and made a call.

"Hello, master, the tongue has been cut."

"The remaining operatives in Qingshan Town have been activated. I’ve managed to hold down the county police from supporting, and with just those few police at Qingshan Town’s station, the situation is definitely uncontrollable."

"Our people have also blended in, and we will definitely take Xu Qianli’s life amidst the chaos!"

"Master, just await the good news—Xu Qianli will undoubtedly die today!"
