After most of the troops had left, all that was left was internal affairs. Lu Yiwei held a brief meeting with the relevant people in charge and appointed Sun Gensheng as the person in charge of the accident. He was to carry out a comprehensive investigation and gave clear instructions that all the departments and personnel involved would be investigated and dealt with seriously without mercy.
After the meeting, Lu Yiwei finally had a chance to catch his breath. The exhaustion of the day made him forget his hunger. He was so busy that he did not even have time to drink water. Coupled with his anxiety, he suddenly lost a lot of weight.
It was already past ten at night when he returned to the dormitory. Guo Jiajun arranged for dinner to be served and carefully prepared medicine. Looking at the exhausted Lu Yiwei, he said with concern, "Secretary Lu, you should eat first. You haven't had lunch yet."
Lu Yiwei closed his eyes and leaned against the sofa. After a long time, he said, "Jiajun, you're in charge of this accident. Be quick."
Guo Jiajun asked doubtfully, "Didn't you ask Secretary Sun to be in charge?"
Lu Yiwei slowly opened his eyes and said, "He'll investigate his, you investigate yours. He's the official voice, and I want to know the story behind this accident. "
Guo Jiajun instantly understood and nodded. "Don't worry, I know what to do."
"Alright, you go first. I'll rest for a while."
Guo Jiajun did not stay for long and left reluctantly after some persuasion. Lu Yiwei got up and locked the door. He went back to his bedroom, undressed and changed into his pajamas. He lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling, feeling miserable.
This day was the darkest day of his life. Almost everything happened on the same day. It was hopeless. At the most critical moment, he gave up on his family matters and chose to work. This was a choice that no one else could understand.
His phone rang.
He did not know how many times it had rung today. The two batteries were not enough. This phone was bought for him by Old Pan before the New Year. It was a Samsung business flip phone. He rarely refused Old Pan's gifts. The two of them had become a family. There was no distinction between them. The advantage of this phone was that it could be used for dual use, separating work and life. Only a few people around him knew about Life.
"Hello, Yiwei, are you still busy?"
"I just rested. What's the situation over there?"
Pan Chengjun said, "I have asked people from the Fourth Bureau to ask around, but until now, we have not found Secretary Fan's whereabouts."
Lu Yiwei did not speak for a long time. Pan Chengjun said again, "Don't worry, I'll think of something. I don't believe that a living person can disappear into thin air. Secretary Zhang is also trying to find ways to ask around, but I have a small idea that I'm not sure if I should say. "
"Speak."
"Do you think Secretary Fan could have been kidnapped?"
Lu Yiwei was amused and said, "Nonsense! Kidnap me from my home? Who dared to be so impudent? Besides, there must be a reason for the kidnapping. It's impossible. "
Pan Chengjun kindly reminded him, "Yiwei, I'm just saying it casually, don't take it seriously. However, this possibility could not be ruled out. I remember you have a friend called Hei Quan who's doing pretty well in River East. Why don't you ask him around? "
"There's no need. How's Chunfang? "
"Oh, Tong Huan is with her. It's not a big problem."
"You didn't tell her why you left, did you?"
"This … I can't say. I just said that you had an emergency and went back to Long 'an. She will understand."
Lu Yiwei adjusted his thoughts and sat up. "Contact Fuyong. No matter what, you must find out his whereabouts by tonight. If you can't find him, call the police. "
"Okay, we'll think of something."
Just as he hung up, someone knocked on the door. Lu Yiwei's ears pricked up vigilantly. He did not want to answer, but the person still knocked. He got up and walked to the door. "Who is it?"
"It's me."
Hearing Qiu Yingxue's voice, Lu Yiwei was a little nervous. He remembered what happened a while ago and said, "I'm going to sleep. Let's talk tomorrow."
"I know you haven't slept yet. I want to talk to you about what happened today."
Lu Yiwei hesitated for a moment, then opened the door.
Qiu Yingxue came in and looked around. "Did I disturb you?"
Lu Yiwei smiled and did not speak.
Qiu Yingxue sat down. Lu Yiwei deliberately kept a certain distance from her. He said with a tired face, "You've been tired all day, and you still haven't slept?"
"Yes, I can't sleep. Such a big thing happened. No one can sleep. "
Lu Yiwei lit up a cigarette and said with a faint smile, "We'll deal with it when it comes. If something happens, we'll just face it. Are you afraid?"
Qiu Yingxue's face showed stubbornness. "What am I afraid of? There's no such thing as fear in my dictionary. Maybe I'm not in your position, and I can't imagine the pressure you're under. But what happened recently is enough to crush a person's will. I'm actually worried that you'll leave. I'm serious. "
"Leave? Why would I leave? "
Qiu Yingxue's eyes lit up. "That means you won't leave?"
"Who told you that?"
"Uh … there's a rumor going around recently that you might return to the province. I thought it was true, so I asked you to verify it. "
Lu Yiwei sneered. "Looks like some people can't wait for me to leave. The more they act this way, the more I won't leave. I won't stop until I turn Long 'an upside down. "
Qiu Yingxue got the answer she wanted. "I don't want you to leave either. The current political situation in Long 'an has taken a turn for the better. Only some poison is still active. The poison is strong, and if you let your guard down, all your previous efforts will go to waste. So, you must not give up. Take another step forward, and you'll see the light. "
"Just like today's coal mine accident. Do you think it was an accident?"
Lu Yiwei had his suspicions, but he could not jump to conclusions without evidence. He looked at her. "What do you think?"
Qiu Yingxue said seriously, "I don't have the investigation results yet, but I feel that this matter is very strange. There's gas in the coal mine, but it's within the normal range. As long as there's good ventilation, there shouldn't be a gas explosion. I found out from Fu Jiangwei that he questioned the trapped people, and there was a time when the blower stopped operating for more than ten minutes. During that time, no one was able to troubleshoot the fault in time, and the explosion happened while they were on their way out. If what they said is true, there must be a human factor involved. "
Lu Yiwei did not follow her train of thought and changed the topic. "Has the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection sent someone here?"
"Not yet. They should be here next week."
After saying that, Lu Yiwei got up and went into the study. After a while, he came out with a bag of things and handed it to her. "Take it, it might be useful to you."
Qiu Yingxue took the bag. "What's this?"
