    Hearing Liang Tao’s words, Zhang Cheng’s head drooped even lower, his voice barely a whisper.


    “Alright! Resolve any issues swiftly! We have more pressing tasks at hand!”


    “Yes, sir! Understood!” Zhang Cheng responded promptly. Turning swiftly, he opened the door and exited the room.


    Stepping out of Liang Tao’s office, Zhang Cheng wasted no time in reaching out to Cai Jia, the deputy director of the county police station.


    “Deputy Director Cai, I have a matter that requires your assistance,” Zhang Cheng began, his tone polite yet firm. Cai Jia, on the other end, responded eagerly, aware of the influence Zhang Cheng wielded.<div>

    “Mr. Zhang, there’s no need for formalities. What do you need?” Cai Jia replied with a hint of enthusiasm in his voice.


    Cai Jia was acutely aware that, despite Zhang Cheng’s non-political and non-military status, he held sway in both realms, especially with the backing of a high-ranking official. Any request from Zhang Cheng was seen as an extension of that official’s wishes, not to be lightly dismissed.


    Without hesitation, Zhang Cheng got straight to the point. “Your officers are investigating a case rted to a sanatorium. I would appreciate it if Deputy Chief Cai could keep me informed about any developments.”


    Cai Jia hesitated momentarily.


    Revealing details about an ongoing case was not standard practice unless it involved the parties in the case. It was a matter of discipline.


    Furthermore, this particr case was linked to Xia Wan. Her involvement had been crucial in cracking a significant human organ trafficking case, earningmendation for the county police station. Given its sensitivity, the case was handled with utmost care.


    After receiving Chen MO’s call, Song Lei had promptly led his team to the nursing home.


    However, Zhang Cheng’s unique position left Cai Jia unsure of how to proceed.


    Zhang Cheng, sensing her hesitation, rified, “I have a familial connection to someone involved in the case. I’m concerned about their family’s well-being, and I’m hoping Deputy Director Cai can make an exception for me.”


    “No problem at all!” Cai Jia agreed instantly. “If it involves family, we’ll certainly amodate your request!”


    Zhang Cheng’s exnation provided Cai Jia with a convenient rationale. She would be foolish not to seize this opportunity forpliance.


    After all, who would delve into whether they were actually rted? Zhang Cheng’s word was enough for Cai Jia to act on.


    With Cai Jia’smitment, Zhang Cheng felt assured. Leveraging the resources and influence of the county would now be easier. Utilizing external forces rashly could raise rms and lead to unnecessaryplications.


    To maintain discretion, it was best to utilize the resources of the county police station.


    After concluding his call with Cai Jia, Zhang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. He had anticipated a straightforward visit to this small county town, only to find it riddled with unexpectedplexities.


    Zhang Cheng felt his head throb with the weight of theseplications. He longed to resolve these issues quickly and return home for a rxing shower.


    Meanwhile, at the nursing home, another crisis was unfolding.


    “Help! Someone’s overdosed on pills!” A nurse’s panicked cry disrupted the drowsiness of the few officers present.


    Officer Song, dropping the documents he was perusing, dashed out of the room.


    Director Li, just about to unwind, cursed under his breath, hastily throwing on a shirt before hurrying to the scene.


    Arriving at the source of themotion, they found an individual lying motionless on the floor, mouth foaming, while two nurses stood nearby, their faces drained of color, hands sped in anxiety.


    “What happened here?” Officer Song inquired first.


    One nurse, her voice quivering, recounted, “Xiao Zhao came towards us, muttering incoherently. Before we could react, he swallowed a handful of pills. Then he copsed, eyes rolling back, foaming at the mouth.”


    “Why are you just standing there? Didn’t you learn any first aid?” Director Li eximed, his frustration evident.


    The nurses looked at Director Li, fear mingling with a hint of defiance in their eyes. “We’ve never faced something like this before… How could we…”


    Their shaky voices belied a strange certainty, leaving Director Li momentarily at a loss for words.


    Rushing to the copsed individual, Director Li quickly assessed the situation and called out, “Summon Director Zhu and the others, now!”


    “But it’s sote…” someone protested weakly.


    “Enough talk! We can’t have a death in the sanatorium!” Director Li barked, his urgency palpable..</font>
