Song Guanchao blinked, locking eyes with her for a long ti before saying, "You're a cop?"
You're a big boss in the underworld, telling you're a cop?
Song Guanchao felt she was insulting his intelligence.
"I know you don't believe ."
Chairman Tan saw his expression and knew he didn't believe her at all.
This reaction was within her expectations.
"Are you trying to say you used to be a cop?"
Song Guanchao didn't think she would joke about sothing like this, and the current atmosphere was clearly not suitable for jokes.
Chairman Tan shook her head, "I still am."
Song Guanchao frowned, "Are you serious?"
A cop selling drugs?
And controlling an underworld organization?
What kind of cop is that?
Facing his skeptical gaze, Chairman Tan only said two words: "Undercover."
Song Guanchao was initially stunned, then showed a look of sudden realization.
Sotis, the police arrange for soone to go undercover to solve cases or investigate companies with criminal ties.
And those involved in illegal businesses similarly infiltrate the police force.
This was common over a decade ago, but not so much in recent years.
Once an undercover agent is placed, it ans there's a serious criminal presence that requires uncovering evidence through this thod.
If what she says is true, this woman is quite sothing.
An undercover agent, and a woman at that, rising to the top position.
That's no ordinary feat of strength.
Song Guanchao said, "I know Mayor Liang, tell , who's your superior? I'll ask around."
This matter is too important for Song Guanchao to trust her words alone.
"My superior was the forr captain of the criminal investigation team, Lin Bin."
Chairman Tan's expression suddenly turned somber, "You don't need to check, Lin is already dead."
"Dead? How did he die?"
"Heart disease."
"Besides Captain Lin, who else knows?"
"No one else." Chairman Tan shook her head, "To avoid exposing our undercover identities, we only communicated directly with the captain of the criminal police team. Not even the higher-up directors were involved, and there's no record of us in the police system. Our dossiers were kept in paper form."
"You all?" Song Guanchao glanced at the adjacent wall, "Is Shen Qing also undercover?"
"Yes."
Sss~
So that ans, last night, he took down two undercover agents?
This is a real case of accidents happening to the best of plans.
However, Song Guanchao felt no guilt at all.
Whether or not they were undercover, whatever compels them to act as they do is their business, not his.
Moreover, the events have already transpired, discussing it is aningless.
Furthermore, there's no way to verify they were undercover.
According to her, the only person who knew their identity is dead.
With no living evidence, how can you prove their identity?
On another note, even if Lin Bin were still alive, with their current identities and the wealth and status acquired, would they willingly return to being cops?
Song Guanchao wasn't about to trust her story.
After all, he hardly knew Chairman Tan or Shen Qing.
"Even with Captain Lin dead, the records should still exist, right?"
Song Guanchao asked, "You should know where he kept your files, right?"
Chairman Tan shook her head, "After Lin died, I looked but couldn't find them. I suspect he hid the files sowhere only he knew."
"Without the files, we'll never be able to return to our previous lives."
Saying this, a shadow crossed Chairman Tan's eyes.
Song Guanchao asked, "So you ca to to help you find your files?"
"No." She shook her head, "I'm here for sothing else."
"What is it?"
"Jiangzhou City has a cri syndicate, and the mbers' public personas are impressive, but they're engaged in illicit dealings in the shadows. From what I know, there's an undercover among them in the police too."
Chairman Tan said, "I want you to help find out who those undercovers are and expose them."
Song Guanchao raised an eyebrow, enjoying the irony of the situation.
You plant an insider in my camp, and I plant one in yours.
Song Guanchao chuckled, "Chairman Tan really thinks highly of . I'm no cop, how am I supposed to help you investigate?"
Chairman Tan responded, "No need to be modest. I've read your file; you're very capable. If you're willing to work with , you can certainly ferret them out."
"Plus, it's a rit for you as well. I can't think of a reason for you to refuse."
Song Guanchao suddenly asked, "Why did you drug yesterday?"
Chairman Tan calmly replied, "I don't trust you, so I needed so leverage in our negotiations."
Song Guanchao understood her aning.
Her undercover identity is too sensitive, with many implications.
Though she had read Song Guanchao's file, a file is still just a file, and she couldn't trust soone she had never t before.
That's why she resorted to this asure, seeking leverage against him.
With the video in hand, he couldn't expose her status as an undercover agent.
This was her ans of self-preservation.
Unfortunately, she didn't expect the drug to be too potent, backfiring and implicating herself.
Song Guanchao took out his phone, played the video, and tossed it over.
Chairman Tan looked down, and the video on screen showed the steamy scenes from Song Guanchao's escapades with the two won the previous night.
Chairman Tan's body trembled slightly; she hadn't expected that her pre-installed surveillance would be discovered by Song Guanchao.
Song Guanchao retrieved his phone, "Tell how you want to help you identify those undercovers?"
"Oh, right, I still don't know your na, Chairman Tan."
"Tan Xiang."
Tan Xiang revealed her na, "You inform the police that you have evidence on a drug deal, ask them to make arrests."
"If anyone opposes, they must be the undercover agent!"
Song Guanchao retorted, "Nobody would oppose such a thing."
Tan Xiang suddenly fell silent, maybe realizing her suggestion was a bit naive.
Song Guanchao was curious, "With your current standing, you don't know who the undercovers on the police side are?"
Tan Xiang shook her head, "I'm just one mber of this syndicate, the police liaison is handled by another company's head."
Song Guanchao asked, "Are you sure they're undercovers? Could it be the other side bribing the police with money?"
Tan Xiang nodded, "There are definitely bribed officers, but there are also undercovers."
Her tone was certain, suggesting she had so concrete information regarding the undercover agents' existence.
Song Guanchao pondered for a mont, "I have a plan."
Tan Xiang asked, "What plan?"
"You don't need to know for now; just cooperate."
"You don't trust ?" Tan Xiang frowned.
"That's right, I don't trust you."
Song Guanchao was straightforward, not sparing her feelings.
Tan Xiang bit her lip, refraining from arguing, and asked, "How should I cooperate?"
Song Guanchao took out his phone, "Give your number, I'll contact you when it's ti to act."
