Right at this moment, the office door was pushed open and a fifty-something year old public security officer hurriedly walked in.
He had a medium build, a steady face, and a look of vicissitudes of life on his face.
As soon as this person appeared, Sun Guiquan and the others immediately stood up straight and greeted him in unison, "Hello, Chief!"
Even Deputy Director Hu smiled and said, "Chief, what's so urgent?"
According to the reactions of the surrounding people and the way they addressed him, this First Grade Police Officer was without a doubt the Chief of the County Public Security Bureau.
However, the Chief didn't pay attention to the greetings. Instead, he glanced around the office and walked towards me.
He stopped next to me and sized me up before saying, "You, you're Secretary Zhao from the central government, right?"
I stood up and nodded, "That's me."
The Chief said, "I'm sorry to have startled you!
Just now, Vice Minister Lin of the Ministry of Public Security personally called me and said that … you were brought to the Public Security Bureau … I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed that the County Public Security Bureau raised such a bunch of filthy people! "As he said that, he glanced at Commissioner Hu and Sun Guiquan with a look of righteous indignation.
Hearing this, Deputy Director Hu, Sun Guiquan and the other police officers were dumbfounded.
Deputy Director Hu's face was especially pale and the cup in his hand fell to the ground.
Sun Guiquan also opened his mouth in astonishment and his face was extremely ugly.
The Chief patted my shoulder and said, "Secretary Zhao, let's go to my office!"
I nodded slightly and followed the Chief out.
When the Chief reached the door, he turned around and pointed his index finger at Deputy Director Hu and the others, "See how I'll deal with you later!"
Deputy Director Hu and the others looked at each other, their faces haggard and surprised.
After the Chief and I left, I faintly heard Deputy Director Hu slam the table and curse, "Fuck, this time we really bumped into the muzzle of a gun!"
When we entered the Chief's office, the Chief introduced himself to me.
It turned out that his surname was Ma, and he was the acting director of the county's Public Security Bureau (the former director was temporarily transferred out of Songhe County). He had just been in charge for a little over two months.
Chief Ma personally poured a cup of tea for me and politely said, "Secretary Zhao is going back to his hometown to visit his relatives. If you had informed us in advance, we would've held a welcoming dinner for Secretary Zhao!"
I smiled and said, "Chief Ma, you're exaggerating."
Chief Ma said, "I'm really sorry for making you suffer so much in your hometown.
I apologize to you on behalf of the county's Public Security Bureau! "
I waved my hand and said, "Chief Ma, I don't dare.
I just have some doubts that I can't explain. I wonder if Chief Ma can help me clear them up? "
Chief Ma said, "Secretary Zhao, please speak."
So I will talk about today's dispute with Wang Yishui, Sun Guiquan and Deputy Director Hu.
Speaking of which, Bureau Chief Ma could only sigh.
Then, Bureau Chief Ma openly told the public about the inside story of the county's Public Security Bureau.
It turned out that Deputy Director Hu's actions had already aroused public anger in Songhe County.
He used his position to accept bribes and oppress the citizens.
Since Bureau Chief Ma had just been appointed as the Acting Chief, he was unable to manage Deputy Director Hu well.
Deputy Director Hu had two 'capable subordinates' by his side. One was Sun Guiquan, and the other was Wang Yishui, an off-staff member of the Public Security Bureau.
As the saying goes, one black and one white, reversing black and white.
What was even more dramatic was that Sun Guiquan and Wang Yishui had a double relationship. At the same time, they were both Deputy Director Hu's son-in-law.
In other words, Deputy Director Hu was Sun Guiquan and Wang Yishui's father-in-law!
Although the Public Security Bureau hated Deputy Director Hu's actions, they were still a bit intimidated by his power and influence, so they could only be angry but not say anything.
After listening to Bureau Chief Ma, I vaguely understood a lot of things.
Whether it was emotional or logical, this matter was a bit shocking.
After Bureau Chief Ma finished speaking, he deeply sighed a few times.
At noon, Bureau Chief Ma insisted on holding a banquet to help me get over my shock, but I declined …
This matter seemed to have temporarily come to an end, but Deputy Director Hu wasn't an ordinary person. That afternoon, he drove to my house with Sun Guiquan.
Of course, he came with a heavy gift. He undoubtedly wanted me to let bygones be bygones and be merciful.
But how could I let go of such a national public servant who brought disaster to the country?
Bureau Chief Ma and Sun Guiquan no longer had their previous arrogance and begged for my forgiveness. What was even more unexpected was that Sun Guiquan actually took out a hardcover Hongtashan, opened a corner, and respectfully said in front of me: "Secretary Zhao, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding.
In order to express my apologies, this pack of cigarettes is my filial piety! "
Of course, I could see that there was something fishy about this pack of cigarettes. On the surface, it looked like a normal pack of cigarettes, but in reality, it was filled with RMB. The entire pack was stuffed with RMB 100 bills. A conservative estimate, there was at least RMB 100,000.
Vulgar, extraordinarily vulgar!
I didn't say anything. I just looked at Deputy Director Hu, who was wearing plain clothes and hesitating. Perhaps he was the most embarrassed person right now.
When I was in his office, he didn't lose his arrogance. But now, it was too late to take it back.
Deputy Director Hu smiled and said: "Secretary Zhao, this matter is all my fault. I didn't manage it well, and I handled the matter too subjectively. I even wronged you.
Now, I have detained Wang Yishui and the other culprits.
It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. This, this Sun Guiquan was also deceived by Wang Yishui.
This, this, I hope Secretary Zhao can be merciful. This, this, Minister Lin … "
I didn't wait for him to finish and asked: "Commissioner Hu, I heard that Wang Yishui is your son-in-law, right?"
Commissioner Hu awkwardly lowered his head and said: "Yes, yes, yes.
This, this, deceived, deceived, deceived, I was deceived by him.
This kid always causes trouble for me … Secretary Zhao, don't worry, I will handle this matter impartially! "
At this time, in order to protect his own interests, Commissioner Hu had no choice but to throw his son-in-law into this matter.
However, all the cover-ups were useless in front of me. I couldn't cover up the truth for Deputy Director Hu.
Moreover, even if I agreed not to pursue this matter, his evil deeds had already alerted the Ministry of Public Security. This kind of absurd national government official, one more was enough to stain the sky.
Therefore, no matter how much Commissioner Hu and Sun Guiquan begged and repented, I remained unmoved.
Commissioner Hu saw that what was done was done, and he no longer acted subservient. Instead, his face became abnormally tyrannical. He shouted at me: "Fine, fine.
Secretary Zhao, you're not moved by force or persuasion, right?
Since you don't want to give us face, let's be frank. You can use this matter to bring me down, but even if you bring me down, there are still thousands of people in China. Can you guarantee that you won't leave any evidence behind? "
Sun Guiquan acted according to Commissioner Hu's signal. Hearing his father-in-law say this, he also used the authority of a fox to intimidate others: "Where it's possible to make mistakes, one should be lenient. Leaving a way out for others is the same as leaving a way out for oneself.
Secretary Zhao, remember, thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, and thirty years in the east.
In this society, all kinds of miracles can happen. You're doing well now, working for the central government, but sooner or later, you'll be in a desperate situation! "
I smiled and said: "If you don't leave a way out for yourself, how can others leave one for you?"
Commissioner Hu and Sun Guiquan sighed and left resentfully.
In the next two days, the Ministry of Public Security sent a commissioner to work with the Provincial Public Security Bureau to thoroughly investigate the Songhe County Public Security Bureau. Deputy Director Hu and Sun Guiquan were dismissed and Wang Yishui was detained because he was suspected of many illegal cases.
During this time, Vice Minister Lin of the Ministry of Public Security kept in close contact with me, and I also made corresponding efforts to assist him.
After all, this was an evil case that happened in my hometown. The matter started with me, and gradually led to the current situation.
Although the related people were severely punished by the law, I thought: Even if one Hu Ziqiang fell, who knows how many Hu Ziqiang's in China would still be living happily!
Of course, this matter set off a huge storm in the county, and even the entire province. The Ministry of Public Security directly reported Deputy Director Hu's matter to the national public security system. The whole county was filled with laughter, and I heard a lot of shocking things about Deputy Director Hu.
It was said that when Hu Ziqiang was the Deputy Director, his son had a conflict with several students in school. The Director's son was beaten, and the Public Security Bureau investigated and sentenced the other parents to apologize and compensate Hu Ziqiang.
However, Hu Ziqiang did not stop there. He secretly gathered the parents of several students together. Under Hu Ziqiang's tyranny, the parents actually knelt down and begged for mercy … Later, this incident was exposed by the media, and Hu Ziqiang was called 'China's most powerful deputy director'.
However, it didn't shake Hu Ziqiang's position and position. It was said that Hu Ziqiang had a big backer in the central government.
No one could tell if the backer was real or fake.
However, Hu Ziqiang's actions in Songhe County caused a huge commotion among the people.
However, I still thought: If I didn't get involved, would Hu Ziqiang have been brought to justice so quickly?
There was no way to tell.
I just felt a bit unhappy.
I couldn't tell why I was unhappy.
On the sixth day of visiting, I suddenly received a call from You Meng.
You Meng said mischievously: "Zhao Long, did you miss me?"
I teased her: "I missed you, I missed you so much that I almost couldn't remember!"
You Meng scolded: "You have no conscience!
You don't remember your surname after visiting your relatives once. Did you forget your old comrades and colleagues? "
I didn't say anything and kept silent.
However, to be honest, I did miss You Meng and the other staff in the office.
People who worked in a place for a long time would have feelings, so it was inevitable that they would miss it.
You Meng said mysteriously: "Zhao Long, if I go to your house tomorrow, you won't object, right?"
I was stunned: "What a joke!
You're not on duty?
There aren't many old comrades in the office now, so you have to play the role of a pioneer.
Staff Officer Liu and Staff Officer Wei have just been transferred, so you have to take care of them! "
You Meng said with a smile: "What if I tell you that this is a mission from the bureau?"
I almost fainted: "Mission?
You Meng, did you eat the wrong medicine?
Why would the bureau give you this kind of mission? "
You Meng said with grievance: "Zhao Long, you always bully me, why do you always treat mocking me as a hobby?
I'm not joking with you, and I didn't eat the wrong medicine, believe it or not! "
I said: "What mission did the bureau give you?"
