Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 526 Follow-up Arrangements
The three director-level bosses met briefly, but soon reached a consensus.

Afterwards, the three bosses did not stay for too long and went downstairs together to prepare to split into two groups.

Zhou Quan, along with his brothers, escorted Zhuo Wenwei and those corrupt police officers back to the National Security Department.

Lin Jiachang and Zeng Xiangrong need to take over the finishing operations on site.

The National Security Department's convoy was assembled, and everyone slowly drove out of the area blocked by the cordon.

This time, Zhou Quan's iconic off-road vehicle did not lead the way, but was in the center of the convoy.

It’s not that Sir Quan cares about the ostentation, but he needs to be wary of the Hong Kong media reporters gathered outside the cordon.

But even if there were invisible tanks from the National Security Department clearing the way and providing cover for Sir Quan's car, it would be of no avail.

How could the media reporters who were eager to know more about the incident at North Point Police Station tonight fail to notice Zhou Quan's car?
His old off-road vehicle, which he has been driving for nearly ten years, has long become an iconic symbol of his.

"Sir Quan, we just noticed that Chief Superintendent Zhou Xingxing, deputy director of your National Security Department, personally led a team into the North Point Police Station building."

“The accompanying operatives are all well-known police officers from the Criminal Operations Division under the National Security Department.”

"Excuse me, does the fact that you sent these elite personnel to take action indicate the seriousness of tonight's incident?"

"Sir Quan, we just saw Chief Inspector Zhuo Wenwei, the negotiation expert of the Hong Kong Island Region, on the windowsill on the tenth floor of the North Point Police Station building."

"Is he the protagonist of tonight's incident? Is he a police officer who broke the law knowingly?"

"Sir Quan, what explanation will the police have for tonight's incident?"

……

I have to say that the media reporters around here are quite fearless.

In other words, they don't believe that the police force will disregard their personal safety.

Therefore, even though there were invisible tanks leading the way and providing cover in front and behind Zhou Quan's vehicle, they still crowded around Zhou Quan's SUV with their guns and cannons.

In order to ensure that Zhou Quan, who was sitting in the car, could hear their shouts and questions.

Each of their voices was extremely loud and clear, whether male or female, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were shouting at the top of their lungs.

Seeing this scene, a look of helplessness flashed across Zhou Quan's face.

What else could he do? Should he just force his way through in his car? And knock away all the media reporters around him?

With no other options, Zhou Quan had to ask Zhou Xingxing to temporarily put on the brakes.

With the car window rolled down, Zhou Quan showed a formal smile on his face.

"Dear journalists, thank you for your attention to the police operation."

Facing the cameras in the hands of the media reporters, and enduring the discomfort brought by the bursting flash lights, Zhou Quan tried his best to show his relaxed demeanor to the reporters present.

"But please rest assured, nothing dangerous happened tonight."

"Everything is an internal exercise within the police force to test the mobilisation capabilities of Tai Kwun and some operational departments in the Hong Kong Island region."

"As for the specific situation, please pay attention to the press conference held by the Police Public Relations Department tomorrow."

Having said that, Zhou Quan paused for a moment, and then he put on an expression full of dignity.

"Now, I ask all journalists to clear the road and not hinder the police from performing their duties."

All the media reporters at the scene were obviously not satisfied with Zhou Quan's answer.

They were not idiots, they knew that what Sir Quan said was just a perfunctory statement. However, they did not have any substantial information at the moment, and Sir Quan had raised the current situation to the level of affecting the police force's performance of their duties.

If they continue to pester each other, it will obviously be their own problem.

Fortunately, the police force will definitely make a positive response to tonight’s events. Tomorrow’s press conference by the Police Public Relations Department will be the time for them to truly show their edge.

If they withdraw temporarily now, they can give Sir Quan some face and at the same time give them enough time to investigate the specific situation.

Therefore, even though the media reporters at the scene were not satisfied with Zhou Quan's answer, they still cooperated and made way.

"Axing, drive!"

Zhou Quan raised the car window again and he couldn't help but raise his hand to rub his eyebrows.

He has tried his best to reduce the adverse impact of tonight, but this does not mean that this matter can be simply dealt with.

The press conference that the police force must hold tomorrow will definitely be a tough battle.

Professional matters should be handled by professionals, which reminded him of his personal spokesperson in the public relations department.

Although the subsequent news and public relations tasks are arduous, the merits involved are equally significant.

If tonight's incident can be handled perfectly, it will undoubtedly help the police force recover great reputational damage.

After all, the Hong Kong Island Region has issued a gag order, and all personnel involved in the case must keep the specific circumstances of tonight strictly confidential.

In addition, there were no casualties in this incident.

It is still very possible to calm the influence of public opinion.

Even if this matter cannot be handled properly in the end, the punishment from above will not fall on Zhou Quan and the National Security Bureau.

After all, the entire incident was entirely caused by some departments within the Hong Kong Island Region.

Zhou Quan and his team just came here to handle the incident and ensure that the situation would not develop into a worse state.

Now that the entire incident has been resolved peacefully, even if the police management investigates the matter later, they cannot hold Zhou Quan and others responsible.

The same goes for those in charge of tomorrow's press conference.

Even if you don't get any credit in the end, you will definitely not lack for your hard work, and at the very least you won't be held accountable.

In this case, Zhou Quan must of course take care of his colleagues who have a close and friendly relationship with him.

"Ah Xing, notify Mr. Mo from the Internal Investigation Department and Madam Liang from the Public Relations Department to wait for me in my office."

After the convoy turned out of the street where the North Point Police Station was located, Zhou Quan closed his eyes and gave an instruction to Zhou Xingxing.

There is no need to say much about Madam Liang. She, a senior superintendent of the Public Relations Branch, is now the official spokesperson for Sir Quan and the National Security Department.

At tomorrow's press conference, Zhou Quan will need to take care of Liang Ziwei and give her some instructions.

As for Sir Mok, he is also an old acquaintance of Zhou Quan, the head of the Complaints and Internal Investigation Division of the Police Force's Tai Kwun Supervisory Department, Mok Kam-chuen.

The Internal Investigation Division under the National Security Department has the authority to issue orders to internal police personnel.

The outcome of those corrupt police officers is beyond doubt; they were dismissed from their posts, investigated and brought to court to stand trial.

But regarding how to deal with Zhuo Wenwei, Zhou Quan had other plans in mind.

In this case, he will need to communicate with the Supervisory Department.
