I am a super cop

Chapter 2658 Business Bigwigs

Gao Hu had already said so much, and Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were already very clear in their minds that Xu Jianbo might indeed possess some "all-powerful" abilities in Xiangnan City.

Perhaps it is because of the good image he has built up over the years that makes everyone have no doubt about his ability.

But those who do business know it very well: sometimes you may seem prosperous on the surface, but behind the scenes, you may have already become corrupt.

The so-called face is built up with money, and perhaps all this money is the bank's bad debt.

Officer Gao, could you focus on investigating this Xu Jianbo?

"It's a bit difficult." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Gao Hu opened his heart and explained to Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei:
"This Xu Jianbo has a special position in the business world. After all, as you all know, the richer you are, the more you fear that others will mess with you behind your back."

"Even if you have a fortune, what does it matter? One day a competitor will get upset with you and send someone to mess with you."

"Then all the money you earn and the wealth you accumulate will become someone else's property, right?"

"If my wife marries the driver again, wouldn't that mean she's working for her driver for nothing?"

Although what Gao Hu said was unpleasant to hear, it was indeed true. This is something that almost every wealthy businessman needs to consider.

So, Lu Weiwei and Gu Chen could understand.

So Lu Weiwei quickly asked Gao Hu: "So he has a lot of bodyguards around him?"

"A lot. A lot. Even the drivers are retired special forces soldiers who have learned special driving skills."

"People like Xu Jianbo are the hardest to get close to. Normally, people who want to make an appointment with him can't even get a number, not to mention the paparazzi who want to collect and film his dirty laundry. That's a no-brainer."

"Just when you have this idea and are ready to implement it, if you are discovered by Xu Jianbo's bodyguard team, you will be in trouble."

"So, a police investigation is not an option?" Lu Weiwei asked again.

"Okay, okay." As soon as Lu Weiwei finished speaking, Gao Hu began to hesitate again.

Lu Weiwei asked hurriedly, "What do you mean by 'OK'? Is it OK or not?"

"Well, it's a bit difficult." Gao Hu said.

"What do you mean?" Lu Weiwei expressed confusion.

Gao Hu then continued, "After all, Xu Jianbo has a special identity. He is the president of the Xiangnan Chamber of Commerce and also serves on the board of directors of certain associations. To investigate him, a lot of resources will need to be mobilized."

"But if we use certain resources, he will definitely notice it. This guy is not stupid. I don't believe that he can make such a big business without any black material."

"In my opinion, it's nothing more than a good cover-up, but if you want to touch him, he's more sensitive than anyone else."

At this point, Gao Hu was somewhat helpless and continued to explain to Gu Chen:
"Xu Jianbo's bodyguard team is very professional. Although he has been very successful in business over the years, he always offends people."

"So sometimes he especially needs the protection of bodyguards, and this has been his habit for many years."

"If we were to investigate him, let's not talk about anything else. The place where he met with his friends was very secretive. Ordinary people couldn't get in. It was like a private club."

"Also, there are always bodyguards standing outside, so you can't get close at all."

"Surveillance and the like have no effect on him. You said you wanted to investigate him, but he was trying to trip you up..."

Feeling that he was in a very difficult situation, Gao Hu also looked helpless.

After hearing this, Gu Chen continued to ask him: "Is there no other way?"

"Yes, there is." Seeing Gu Chen asking, Gao Hu also confessed directly:
"That means I have to investigate shamelessly. Of course, my superiors will definitely have opinions. After all, who is Xu Jianbo? The superiors can't afford to offend him."

"After all, he has many industries in Shonan City and has made great contributions to the economic development of Shonan City."

"There were many people in other surrounding cities who wanted to attract him to invest, but Xu Jianbo chose to keep his main industries in Xiangnan City."

"On the one hand, this is where he made his fortune, and he has a certain sentiment in mind that he should not forget his roots."

"Another reason is that he is the president of the Shonan Chamber of Commerce. In other words, his words are effective in Shonan."

"If you offend him, he can move some key industries to other cities and get more policy support. Why wouldn't he do that?"

At this point, Gao Hu also sighed and continued to explain: "So, sometimes, we can't do whatever we want, we also have to consider the basic situation."

"Even if they want to investigate, the pressure is huge. My superiors will definitely hand this matter over to me and let me handle it."

"Then do you think you can perform the duties of a police officer?" Although Gao Hu had his own difficulties, Gu Chen still asked a crucial question.

However, Gao Hu did not even think about it and replied directly: "Of course, I am a people's policeman. If I don't do this, who will?"

"Well said." Seeing that Gao Hu was very aware, Lu Weiwei on the side couldn't help but applaud him.

Gao Hu also waved his hand: "Don't flatter me here, I know my own limitations."

"Since you want to investigate, let's get to the bottom of it. I'll report to the leader right away and explain the situation. If you want to investigate Xu Jianbo, I will definitely stick to my principles."

"Well said. Then we'll wait for your good news." Seeing Gao Hu speaking passionately, Gu Chen also felt that it was time to let Gao Hu make a decision.

After all, he has to take the blame.

Gao Hu did not hesitate and decisively picked up his phone to contact his superiors.

As expected, the first thing he received was a barrage of scolding from his leader, who told Gao Hu to weigh the pros and cons, because there were too many things involved with Xu Jianbo and he had to think carefully.

But in the end, Gao Hu's leader agreed with Gao Hu's opinion and only reminded him of some matters.

"Good leader, I promise to complete the task and live up to your expectations of me."

It was also during a burst of passionate replies that Gao Hu hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Lu Weiwei also grinned and said, "Done?"

"Done. My boss told me to be careful. After all, Xu Jianbo is an old fox. His qualifications are there. His bodyguards alone are enough to give me a hard time." Gao Hu said.

"What about us now?" Gu Chen asked.

"The leader was processing some investigation documents. After he came down, I immediately went to question him."

"But before that, we still need to review and see if Xu Jianbo has made any recent moves."

At the end, Gao Hu did not hide anything and started calling his colleagues to inform them.

I asked my colleagues to start a secret investigation of Xu Jianbo's situation under the principle of absolute confidentiality. But everything turned out not to be as simple as I imagined.

After various investigations, Gao Hu's colleagues still did not find any illegal behavior by Xu Jianbo.

It can be said that monitoring and investigation had almost no effect on Xu Jianbo.

As for the approval work of the relevant investigation, due to the special circumstances and the fact that it involved important figures in the business community of Xiangnan City, many leaders needed to discuss it temporarily.

There are many issues to consider.

This discussion lasted the entire day.

……

……

The next morning, when Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei had just finished breakfast, Gao Hu had already driven to the hotel where they were staying.

This time Gao Hu also brought two other police officers.

Judging from the physiques of these two police officers, they were carefully selected. Both of them are over 185cm tall and have strong builds.

Seeing that Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei were looking at the two police officers beside them, Gao Hu also smiled bitterly and said helplessly:

"Don't be so surprised. We are going to question Xu Jianbo. We shouldn't be overshadowed by his bodyguards, right?"

"You don't know how powerful Xu Jianbo's bodyguards are. Sometimes, before you even meet Xu Jianbo, you've already lost half of your fighting spirit because of his bodyguards."

"When I meet Xu Jianbo again, I will definitely lose a few points on the scene, so I have to find two colleagues who look as good as his bodyguards to calm the situation."

"Haha, you are really a gangster. Are you so guilty? You're already backing down before you even meet the other person. I want to see how powerful this Xu Jianbo is?" Lu Weiwei obviously didn't take Xu Jianbo seriously.

After all, he had seen quite a few big entrepreneurs, but characters like the one Gao Hu described seemed a bit exaggerated.

But Gao Hu waved his hand and said, "Don't disbelieve it. After all, there is a big difference between people."

"For example, some entrepreneurs are very low-key and simple, some are very pretentious, and some are relatively noble. In short, there are all kinds of people."

"Once this person has a lot of money, he will have a lot of strange ideas, so don't be surprised."

Finally, Gao Hu introduced two of his colleagues to Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei. Both of them were new police officers who had just been working for one or two years.

After everyone briefly introduced themselves, Gao Hu immediately reminded everyone:
"We should go find Xu Jianbo now. I have already contacted his assistant in advance. He said there is a case and he needs to cooperate with the investigation."

"Because it involved the case, his assistant did not refuse and also informed Xu Jianbo of the matter."

After a pause, Gao Hu continued, "Of course, my leader must be behind this. He notified Xu Jianbo in advance and told him that he needed to cooperate with the investigation."

"But no matter what the situation is, at least now we can go see Xu Jianbo."

"Then what are you waiting for?" Lu Weiwei seemed a little impatient.

The main thing is that in Gao Hu's mouth, Xu Jianbo seems to be a very remarkable person.

So Lu Weiwei also wanted to go over and see it for herself.

So everyone got on a business car and headed straight to an area in the forest park.

Before long, we passed through the forest park and drove along the quiet forest road. We soon found an open flat area with some high-end buildings.

And here, there is also a reservoir behind it.

Therefore, this is a natural oxygen bar, and you can tell at first glance that it is a place enjoyed by the rich.

"See that tallest and largest villa? That's Xu Jianbo's home."

"Although he has many houses, the houses here are the best in Shonan City. There are many luxury houses. Basically, all the wealthy people in Shonan City will buy a house here."

“And there’s a golf course over there at the reservoir.”

At this point, Gao Hu gestured with his hands in envy: "Can you imagine? In our Xiangnan City, where the terrain is not flat and every inch of land is valuable, these rich people have such a large area of ​​natural beauty to themselves."

"So sometimes, I even wonder where they get all this money from? How do they make it? Is it clean?"

"Okay, okay, there's no point in thinking too much. You might as well go and ask Xu Jianbo, where did you get all this money? How did you make it? Is it all clean?"

Lu Weiwei also returned to Gao Hu what Gao Hu had just said in its original form.

Gao Hu grinned upon hearing this, and then said, "Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go over and take a look at the situation."

"Yeah." Everyone nodded, and after parking the car, they started walking towards Xu Jianbo's mansion.

Since foreign vehicles can only park in fixed areas, Gu Chen and his companions need to walk along the road and pass through several large iron gates before they arrive at the door of Xu Jianbo's mansion.

There was even a security guard standing at the door.

And this security guard was just as Gao Hu had described, with a straight body and looking like a martial artist.

From this point of view, it is necessary for Xu Jianbo to bring two model policemen to maintain order in the situation.

"Hello, do you have an appointment?" Seeing this, the bodyguard standing on the side of the gate immediately stopped Gao Hu and his companions.

Gao Hu pointed at his police uniform and said, "Don't you recognize this police uniform?"

"I'm sorry, I won't let you in without an appointment. You can go to our other reception room. After all, it's Mr. Xu's private residence and a very private place."

"It is also the place where Mr. Xu usually meets friends and guests, so please understand."

"I won't tease you anymore." Gao Hu felt that he had lost face in front of Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, but he still pretended to smile and continued:
"Would we come here without an appointment? Obviously we have an appointment, and we have already contacted your Mr. Xu. If you don't believe me, you can call and ask."

Seeing that Gao Hu spoke confidently, the bodyguard did not dare to embarrass him. After all, he was wearing a police uniform. So he walked back to a booth at the door and started to dial the phone.

Even while making the call, the bodyguard closed the soundproof transparent glass door.

"Haha." Seeing that the other party was so disrespectful, Gao Hu pointed at the sentry box and said, "See? That transparent glass, bulletproof."

"No... No, are we talking about something off topic?" Feeling that Gao Hu seemed to be trying to divert attention to resolve her embarrassment, Lu Weiwei smoothed over the embarrassment: "That bodyguard doesn't seem to care about you."
