Chapter 653: Cross-Region Enforcement, Unlicensed Enforcement, Entrapment—Mass Purge!
A gentle breeze arrived, and Lu Ding descended with the wind.
He landed.
Three people walked up and called out.
"Brother Lu."
"Grand Duke Lu."
"Grand Guardian."
Lu Ding nodded.
Without wasting time on empty formalities, he immediately began giving orders.
"Qian Jin, in a moment, take the investigators previously counted who are below the red line, break them into small groups, have them wear plain clothes without shoulder insignias, and quietly infiltrate the Path of Dry Bones to control the situation."
What Lu Ding wanted was results. Making a grand, noisy entrance would only backfire. Going in quietly, killing whoever caused trouble, would ensure that damn place was scrubbed absolutely clean."Under certain circumstances, entrapment is permitted. Better to kill by mistake than let anyone go. But there is one point: pay attention to civilian casualties in the local area."
Beside him, Fu Xinghe promptly handed over the materials and documents he had prepared earlier when Zhan Tingzhou called back.
Lu Ding took them, picked up a pen, and signed.
He took a seal and stamped it down.
Finally, a gentle breeze lifted the document, now signed and stamped, which drifted into Qian Jin's hands.
Seeing this scene, Hou Dehai felt a pang of sourness in his heart.
It was pure envy and jealousy!
Why couldn't it be him!
Of course, this was just inner turmoil. Regarding Lu Ding's arrangements, he was completely obedient.
The hand holding the document, Qian Jin's hand, trembled slightly!
An opportunity!!!
The opportunity had finally come!!!
Swallowing hard, he looked up at Lu Ding. "Grand Guardian, not wearing uniforms, no shoulder insignias, entrapment... can this..."
He wanted to ask, if he died like this, could he be recognized as a martyr?
But it wasn't appropriate to ask directly.
It seemed too calculating.
Mainly because, according to normal procedures, dying like this would be a pointless death.
Irregular law enforcement, operating without proper authorization...
If this were outside, this wouldn't be a mission, it would be a goddamn crime.
You have to understand, ever since Lu Ding arrived at White Ridge and displayed his unique law enforcement style.
White Ridge 749 had become incredibly docile.
Following all the rules, not overstepping a single line.
Now, suddenly being told not to follow the rules again, and on such a large scale.
Qian Jin was truly afraid that if he died, it would be for nothing.
Lu Ding reached out and patted his shoulder. "Relax, if the sky falls, I'll hold it up. If I tell you to do it, you do it."
"The seal is stamped, my name is signed. If anyone wants to make trouble, let them come to me."
"As for all of you..."
"Any casualties will be recognized as martyrs, executed uniformly according to the standard I previously set."
Hearing these words, Qian Jin finally felt his heart settle back into his stomach.
He put the document away properly, stood at attention, and saluted. "I guarantee the completion of the task!!!!"
Lu Ding straightened his collar, which had flown up due to his overly excited movements.
"When the time comes, pay attention. There might be Wuwang demon, Gao Qiuli, taking the opportunity to cause trouble inside. Once you discover her traces, send me a message immediately."
As Lu Ding spoke, a faint smile flickered on his face.
You want to muddy the waters, don't you?
You want to kill 749 investigators to threaten me, don't you?
No need for you to lift a finger.
I'll do it myself.
An entire regional 749 Bureau wiped out, the Director and Deputy Director along with over ten thousand investigators dead to the last man—is that water muddy enough?
Thousands of White Ridge 749 investigators in plain clothes, operating without authorization, crossing jurisdictions, using entrapment—is that water muddy enough?
Kill them, let's see how many you can kill?
If it's not enough.
I can still transfer more people from White Ridge to fill the ranks.
Hearing the name Gao Qiuli, a smile actually appeared on Qian Jin's face.
If others wanted to kill him, they might not be qualified enough.
But if it was Wuwang's Gao Qiuli, then that was about right.
If the Grand Guardian, because of his death, could seize the opportunity to kill Gao Qiuli, then his martyr status would be absolutely guaranteed!!
Qian Jin grinned from ear to ear. "Yes, Grand Guardian. I guarantee the completion of the task."
"Alright, you go ahead first."
Qian Jin trotted off at a brisk pace.
At this moment, he felt the wind blowing towards him was sweet.
Hou Dehai watched with burning eyes. He could no longer hold back and said, "What about me? Grand Duke Lu, what do I do?"
"You stay and watch the home base for now, don't move. Wait until they take over control over there, then you'll have plenty to do."
Hou Dehai's combat power was too strong, and he liked to charge at the very front. If he went, casualties would be greatly reduced.
That wouldn't do.
"Alright, alright..."
Hou Dehai was disappointed once again. He never imagined he would miss an opportunity precisely because he was too strong.
Lu Ding looked at Fu Xinghe. "Didn't you rest?"
"It's fine, Brother Lu. I don't need to rest."
As he spoke, he handed over a document. "Brother Lu, this is the Path of Dry Bones 749 reconstruction plan I drafted. Please take a look."
Lu Ding took it and opened it. Although it looked a bit rushed, as it was done in a hurry, it was very detailed with almost no issues.
The flaws were all because Fu Xinghe was still not very proficient in this line of work.
Closing the file: "Then we'll proceed according to this plan afterwards."
"Okay, Brother Lu. I'll revise it some more, try to make it perfect."
Taking back the file, he handed over another one. "Brother Lu, there's also this, please look."
On the document, it read: Investigator Recruitment Plan.
Lu Ding opened it.
Fu Xinghe explained beside him. "Whether it's filling the personnel after rebuilding Path of Dry Bones 749, or the shortage of White Ridge investigators after Director Qian takes people to purge the Path of Dry Bones this time."
"We need to recruit people."
"So, based on the original mandatory recruitment conditions for Great Han 749 investigators, I combined them with the local situation and made some changes."
"I created this document."
"Afterwards, we can use this document to systematically train the investigators we recruit, then disperse and deploy them."
"Additionally, considering the situation in the new city, I also added assessment systems, clock-in systems, etc. Because the behavioral habits and thought logic of investigators recruited here will inevitably be influenced by the overall environment of the new city."
"These things can effectively correct those habits and prevent many prohibited actions."
"At the same time, I also adjusted the red lines for the Great Han 749 investigator code of conduct from outside, leaving more room for local human relations that better fits the area."
The educational environment outside was superior to the new city's, and social awareness was also more modern.
But the new city wasn't like that.
So, adjustments were needed.
Lu Ding looked over the materials.
Satisfied, satisfied, still satisfied.
It must be said, every matter Fu Xinghe handled was crucial.
"This one doesn't need adjustment. Just follow what's written here."
"Understood, Brother Lu. The White Eagle people are still waiting for you in the conference room. What do you think..."
Lu Ding was about to say 'let's go'.
But he suddenly remembered he hadn't arranged for Zhan Tingzhou yet. He turned his head. "Do you want to go with Qian Jin to clean up the Path of Dry Bones, or do you want to rest?"
Although Zhan Tingzhou wanted to go with Qian Jin right now to clean up the Path of Dry Bones, as there were minor opportunities to be seized over there.
It wasn't time to expose himself yet, so they probably hadn't been discovered.
But he had almost accumulated enough pigment now and needed to go back to prepare it.
Thinking for a moment.
Zhan Tingzhou said, "I'll go back first to raise my cultivation stage. Once I'm done and have sufficient power, I'll go then."
