"There's no mention of your presence. We were also ordered to investigate this time. Please forgive me if I have offended you in any way." I have to say that Yang Chi was a little flattered by the strict attitude. Seeing Yang Chi standing still, Yan Gui said with a smile, "Why, won't Warden Yang let us in first?"
"Oh, sorry, please come in," Yang Chi responded quickly, gesturing for them to enter. But when he noticed that Hao Ziqiang was also part of the investigation team, Yang Chi's eyebrows furrowed. Why is this guy hanging out with the investigation team?
Perhaps sensing the hostility in Yang Chi's eyes, Yan Gui glanced at Hao Ziqiang behind him and then said calmly, "Warden Yang, please rest assured that Mr. Hao Ziqiang is not a member of our investigation team. He is only performing supervisory duties and will not participate in our investigation."
"I see, please come in," Yang Chi nodded and ignored Hao Ziqiang. After leading the group into the conference room, Yang Chi gestured for everyone to sit down. However, when Hao Ziqiang attempted to find a seat, he realized there was no chair available for him.
Seeing this, Hao Ziqiang couldn't help but frown. "Warden Yang, it seems you have prepared one less chair."
"Oh? Really? Sorry, the warden didn't think it through," Yang Chi said, eyeing Wang Lide beside him. "Captain Wang, help Mr. Hao get a chair."
Deliberately emphasizing the word "chair," Wang Lide chuckled, catching Yang Chi's meaning. "As you command, Warden."
After a while, Wang Lide returned, and upon seeing what Wang Lide carried, Hao Ziqiang's expression froze. "No, your chair." Wang Lide said, tossing a bench in front of Hao Ziqiang. Looking at the bench, Hao Ziqiang rolled his eyes. What is this for? This is clearly targeted!
But seeing Yan Jui's eyes as if he were watching a show, Hao Ziqiang knew that no one would help him now. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake, so suppressing his anger, Hao Ziqiang waved his hands. "Forget it, since your prison's hospitality is like this, I might as well not sit down."
"Casual," Yang Chi shrugged, unfazed whether Hao Ziqiang sat down or not. If you have the guts, you'd be standing all the time, you b*****d. Ignoring Hao Ziqiang, Yang Chi turned to Yan Gui, changing his expression to a smile.
"Team Leader Yan, I don't know how you want to investigate this time. Our Iron Fort Prison will definitely cooperate with us."
"It's very simple. The investigators under my team will investigate five aspects: prison facilities, health, safety, management, and public opinion. Just send a few prison guards to assist them."
"This is simple, Captain Wang. You choose a few brothers to lead the comrades of these investigation teams to investigate. Remember, you are not allowed to interfere with the investigation of comrade investigators."
"Yes, warden."
Upon hearing this, Wang Lide motioned to the prison guard behind him to assist investigators. With most of the investigators and prison guards leaving, only Yang Chi, prison guard Wang Lide, Yan Gui, and Hao Ziqiang, who was standing aside, were left in the conference room.
Seeing that almost everyone had left, Yan Gui said with a smile, "Warden Yang, when it comes to Iron Castle Prison, I have quite a connection with it."
"Ah?" Upon hearing this, everyone present widened their eyes, especially Yang Chi. He never expected that Yan Gui would say such a thing. However, Yan Gui shook his head and sighed.
"I'm much older than you, so I'll call you Xiaochi. Xiaochi, you may not know that your father was my good friend, and the Iron Castle Prison you now manage was first founded by your father and me."
As soon as this explosive news came out, everyone present was dumbfounded, especially Hao Ziqiang, whose expression was extremely ugly at this time. He cursed secretly in his mind. No wonder I always feel that this old guy is quite hostile to me. It turns out that there is such a relationship, and now I am in trouble.
Thinking of the recording he had handed over long ago, Hao Ziqiang secretly regretted it. If he had known that Yan Gui and Yang Chi had such a relationship, he would not have gone to see Yan Gui even if he killed himself. Now that I have handed over the recording, if this old guy destroys it, I will have no place to cry.
Hao Ziqiang was in a state of confusion, and Yang Chi was not much better. Staring blankly at Yan Gui with a gentle smile in front of him, Yang Chi finally remembered something his father once told him.
"You... are you the Uncle Yan that my dad talked about?"
"Oh, more than thirty years have passed in a flash. Time flies so fast. I didn't expect that Lao Yang and the others would encounter something like that," Yan Gui sighed a little.
Hearing this, Yang Chi also showed a sad expression. Seeing Yang Chi's expression was wrong, Yan Gui also realized that he had touched a sore spot in Yang Chi's heart. He patted Yang Chi's shoulder with some heartache and said guiltily, "Xiaochi, don't you blame Uncle Yan for not helping you these years?"
"Of course not. In fact, you have done enough."
At this point, Yang Chi finally understood. Why can the Iron Castle Prison that I inherited still stand for so long even in the face of a large conglomerate like the Sloka Group? On the one hand, it is due to the policies of the Human Alliance, and the more important reason should be Uncle Yan's status.
Maybe Yan Gui didn't do anything, but Yan Gui's relationship with his father alone had saved him a lot of unnecessary trouble. Yang Chi is not a fool. On the contrary, Yang Chi is very grateful to the old man in front of him.
