Xu Ke said, "Old Hua!"
Duan Chongfeng was astonished. "Hua Xingxue?! How can he be the Law Enforcement Hall Chief?"
"Wasn't he the Hall Chief originally? He only stepped down and made way for Peng Hetong after being injured in the line of duty," Xu Ke said. "So what's the problem with him taking over again? Now that Peng Hetong is gone, in terms of seniority and capability within the entire Law Enforcement Hall, Hua Xingxue is the most suitable candidate."
"This..." Duan Chongfeng was stunned into silence.
"Besides, Old Hua is quite close to us," Xu Ke said with a smile. "Even if he won't collude with us, ensuring his impartiality is completely feasible. We won't have to worry about being secretly plotted against and stifled by Peng Hetong like before."
The Law Enforcement Hall Chief definitely has to be someone on my side.
"You have a point," Duan Chongfeng mused, "but he's injured..."
"I treated his injuries."
