Chapter 542: Chapter 335: Which One to Choose?

Suspicion warrants investigation.

After a series of investigations, Zhou Weijun had finally decided to meet with Lin Chuan in person.

Before this evening, he had met with Zhang Biao face-to-face.

From what he learned from Zhang Biao, at the very least, Lin Chuan’s stance seemed to be upright.

This had eased Zhou Weijun’s mind somewhat.

What he feared most was that such a talented and even perfect agent might get involved in some murky business with external forces.

Inside the Anling Police Station’s conference room, it was quiet.

After taking a sip of water, Zhou Weijun looked towards Lin Chuan, his affection for the young man apparent, “Comrade Lin, I hear you’ve also cooperated with the International Police?”

Lin Chuan was well aware that National Security would not be in the dark about this matter.

Thus, he nodded and said, “Yes, I’ve been working on a few things recently, trying to take down a crime syndicate.”

“I hear you’re in the midst of an operation tonight, and I made sure to see you in person. I hope it doesn’t interfere with your plans?” Zhou Weijun asked with a relieved smile.

With the International Police and the Ministry of Public Security’s endorsement, Lin Chuan’s identity likely wasn’t entangled with any external powers.

Lin Chuan gave a slight wave of his hand, “I’ve arranged all the essential work. With the experience from our last collaboration, this operation seems to be going smoothly so far, and we should be hearing good news soon.”

Zhou Weijun was even more heartened.

He was well aware that without the aid of the International Police and Public Security, it would be difficult to break through Baisheng Group quickly. Yet, after the recent operation against Morgan Group had concluded, another significant operation was underway tonight. That meant…

With just a bit of thought, he could guess that Lin Chuan was playing a key role in this.

Zhou Weijun said with a smile, “Then I’m relieved.”

Lin Chuan glanced at Zhou Weijun, knowing that his desire for a meeting might not be so simple, so he took the initiative to ask, “Elder Zhou, your personal visit to Anling this time…”

He paused, not finishing his thought.

Zhou Weijun pondered for a moment, then raised his eyebrows, his eyes landing on Lin Chuan’s face, and said cheerfully, “Comrade Lin, I made a special trip to visit you.”

Visit?

Lin Chuan was momentarily taken aback.

He hadn’t expected Zhou Weijun to use that term, which undoubtedly meant he held Lin Chuan in high regard.

Following that.

Zhou Weijun’s expression was kind, and he leaned forward slightly, invisibly closing the distance between them, “Comrade Lin, what are your thoughts on our National Security?”

Lin Chuan pondered for a moment, “In my heart, National Security is mysterious and sacred.”

“What a ‘mysterious and sacred’ description!”

Zhou Weijun’s face brightened, and he quickly continued, “Comrade Lin, would you be interested in joining…”

Ring, ring, ring!

Before Zhou Weijun could finish, a sudden ringtone interrupted.

An apologetic look crossed Lin Chuan’s face.

It was Lin Chuan’s phone ringing.

Incoming call: Zhao Haiping.

At this time, was Zhao Haiping calling about a problem with the operation?

Zhou Weijun, seeing Lin Chuan’s dilemma, said, “Lin, if it’s an urgent call, go ahead and take it.”

Lin Chuan nodded with a smile.

Then, he stepped out of the conference room to answer the call.

Lin Chuan immediately asked, “Elder Zhao, is there anything I can assist with regarding the operation?”

“The operation is going smoothly! Everything is proceeding according to plan!”

Elder Zhao announced joyfully.

A radiant smile appeared on Lin Chuan’s face. If everything was going to plan, then tonight they would achieve a complete sweep!

Baisheng Group would disappear from this world.

From then on, they would have no more adversaries!

“Elder Zhao, if there’s anything needed from me in this operation, just give the order,” Lin Chuan said with a smile.

“The operation is progressing smoothly, so rest easy,” Zhao Haiping said with joyful tones, and then changed the subject, “Lin, you don’t have any other plans tonight, do you?”

Lin Chuan turned his head and glanced at Zhou Weijun inside the conference room, and replied, “There’s nothing else, just meeting someone.”

“That’s good to hear,” Zhao Haiping said with a laugh, “It’s like this, an old leader wants to meet you, I wanted to give you a heads up.”

“An old leader?” Lin Chuan’s expression was one of surprise.

For someone to be referred to as an old leader by Zhao Haiping, the level of…

Lin Chuan couldn’t fathom it.

“Yes, one of my old leaders. After landing tonight, he went straight to Anling Police Station and should be arriving shortly,” Zhao Haiping explained.

Lin Chuan looked once more at Zhou Weijun inside the conference room, “Elder Zhao, this old leader you mentioned, is he surnamed Zhou?”

“No, not Zhou, but Wang, you can address him as Old Wang,” Zhao Haiping clarified.

It wasn’t the same person.

Lin Chuan muttered.

What was going on tonight?

Why was everyone flocking to him?

Even people going on blind dates had to queue up!

“Lin, this could be a patron for you, make sure to treat him well,” Zhao Haiping, clearly fond of Lin Chuan, cautioned him as if speaking to a junior.

“Elder Zhao, you might have to wait a bit,” Lin Chuan said helplessly.

“Wait?”

Zhao Haiping was taken aback, as there were not many who could make his old leader Wang An wait.

Making the old leader wait didn’t seem quite right.

“Yes, I’m currently in talks with another leader,” Lin Chuan explained.

“I see, no problem, the leader you’re meeting will be notified,” Zhao Haiping said.

Afterwards, the two ended the call.

Lin Chuan took a deep breath.

To notify Zhou Weijun to pause their meeting for Zhao Haiping’s leader?

Could this mean Zhao Haiping’s leader had too high a rank?

As Lin Chuan thought about heading back to the conference room, he saw a figure bustling towards him. Turning his head, he saw it was Zhang Biao.

“Lin,” Zhang Biao paused, “you’ve got quite the evening ahead of you!”
