Afternoon.
After lunch.
Dong Xuebing answered Liu Hanqing's call in his office.
"Director, I had found some clues about Liu Haibin." Liu Hanqing is very efficient.
"Oh?" Dong Xuebing narrowed his eyes. "What clues? Is it accurate? "
"Someone had tipped me off, and we had verified it. Liu Haibin had received 50,000 RMB from someone for a business deal. But in the end, Liu Haibin did not work for that person, and that person's boss did not reply to him for more than a month. In a fit of anger, he reported Liu Haibin."
"Good job!"
"What do you think now?"
"Investigate! Investigate! Write a report to me! "
"Alright. I know what to do."
Old Liu is an experienced Discipline Inspection officer, and Dong Xuebing is confident in letting him handle this. Within a few hours, he found something fishy. Although it is common to give gifts during Lunar New Year, Dong Xuebing does not believe Liu Hanqing found evidence against Liu Haibin so coincidentally. Old Liu must have some tricks up his sleeves. After all, Liu Hanqing had been working in the Discipline Inspection for many years. If a Discipline Inspection officer is determined to investigate someone, he will have his ways. What are they doing? They specialize in this!
Let's fight!
I'm not afraid of you!
It was obvious that this matter could not be concealed.
At around 2 pm, many people in the City's Party Committee heard that the Commission for Discipline Inspection had investigated Liu Haibin again and had found evidence. If they investigate this, Liu Haibin might face criminal charges. No one is surprised to see Dong Xuebing acting so ruthlessly. They had witnessed the God of Plague's work style more than once. This incident started because Liu Haibin is too careless. The internal affairs of the Party and Government should be handled by the higher-ups. Unless it is a serious matter, using a newspaper to smear a leader is too stingy. If Dong Xuebing is still in Nanshan District's Guangming Street Office, he might still be able to handle it. But now, Dong Xuebing is no longer the same as before. His name must be approved by the City's Publicity Department. Dong Haitao from Nanqi Morning Post is the same. You are too daring. Furthermore, even if you don't want to give face to the God of Plague, you should at least give face to his wife. You think you can do anything just because your father is a Party Committee member? What will you do in the future? You are too unscrupulous!
Ring ring ring, ring ring ring.
Dong Xuebing's phone rang. It's a leader from the City's Committee Office.
Dong Xuebing had heard this person is close to Liu Guowei's family and knew he is here to make peace. That's why he did not answer the call.
Zhan Guiping called. "Chief Dong, come to my office."
He knocked on the door and entered. "Secretary Zhan, are you looking for me?"
"I've heard everything." Zhan Guiping didn't look too good either. She seemed to be a little angry. "Once you get the evidence of Liu Haibin's bribery, hand it to me directly!"
Dong Xuebing was touched. "Thank you."
"You don't have to thank me. This is the job of the Commission for Discipline Inspection!"
"After all, he's Commander Liu's son. Look at Secretary He …"
Zhan Guiping waved her hand. "Don't worry about this. I had spoken to Secretary He earlier, and the reporter from Nan Qi Morning Post is furious!"
Dong Xuebing thought for a while. Everyone knows Dong Xuebing's 100 million RMB is legal, and even Secretary He had approved it. But Liu Haibin had used fake documents to get Nan Qi Morning Post to slander Dong Xuebing. This is a slap to the faces of all the Commission for Discipline Inspection leaders. You know Dong Xuebing has so much money, and you still don't want to investigate him? Secretary He is also furious. Is this implying that he did not do anything?
No wonder Liu Guowei went to look for Xie Huilan to explain and asked someone to call Dong Xuebing to make peace. Liu Guowei must know his son had gone overboard in this matter!
It's fine to offend Dong Xuebing alone.
It's fine to offend both Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan.
But now, Liu Haibin had offended more than one or two people. Liu Guowei's position was also extremely awkward. Now, he was probably the one in the most difficult position.
Dong Xuebing can't be bothered with them.
After dealing with Dong Haitao from Nan Qi Morning Post and getting evidence against Liu Haibin, these two people do not want to continue working in the government. Dong Xuebing calmed down a little, but he is still worried. He had punished these people, but the impact of this incident had spread.
Zhan Guiping said. "We can't take back the papers we had sent out. The Commission for Discipline Inspection will clarify this matter to the public, but I can't guarantee the details."
Even Secretary Zhan had said this, and Dong Xuebing knew this is serious.
Xie Huilan is right. These incidents will be exposed sooner or later. It's all because Dong Xuebing did not know how to handle things in the past and caused too much trouble. But Dong Xuebing does not regret it. He has a clear conscience, and he felt there's nothing to be worried about. He had done what he did!
… …
Dong Xuebing returned to his office.
Dong Xuebing switched on his PC and browsed the internet.
But what Dong Xuebing was worried about still happened when he took a closer look at it.
On Fen Zhou City's biggest forum, the articles published in Nan Qi Morning Post are being reposted, and the number of clicks is increasing. Many people are denouncing Dong Xuebing!
"His assets are over 100 million RMB?"
"Damn! What kind of leader is he?! "
"That's right! Our commoners' money had gone into his pocket! "
"He even smashed Mercedes Benz? Violent law enforcement? This is too arrogant! He should be punished long ago! "
"Did you see Dong Xuebing's photo on the news? That watch is from Patek Philippe, and it's worth at least 2 million! "
"I had seen his car on the road once. It's a Porsche sports car! It's worth at least 4 million! "
"How come no one is going to do anything about this corrupt official? What are the City's leaders doing? "
But some netizens are standing up for Dong Xuebing. But these netizens' voices are too weak in this situation.
"If Chief Dong had not warned us during the earthquake, many people would have died. Don't you all feel guilty?"
"That's right. I know Chief Dong is a good official. Don't you all know how many commoners he had saved?"
"Nan Qi Morning Post had slandered Chief Dong previously, and it's all nonsense. How can this newspaper be trusted? "
The scolding drowned out the netizens.
"Are you all lying?"
"Over 100 million RMB is not considered embezzlement? Then what is it? "
"So what if he had saved people? We know he had contributed to the government, but that doesn't mean he can extort the commoners' hard-earned money. That's our tax revenue! "
"Embezzling over 100 million RMB, and they are still not punished?! What kind of world is this?! "
Punish Dong Xuebing!
Remove Dong Xuebing from his position!
The netizens are all denouncing Dong Xuebing!
Dong Xuebing browsed the internet in front of his PC and closed it in the end. He took a deep breath. He is not angry, but he is worried. To be fair, when the commoners are in danger, as long as Dong Xuebing is around, he will be the first to help. He doesn't mind if his colleagues talk bad about him or the leaders look down on him. But Dong Xuebing did not expect to be scolded by others after risking his life for the commoners.
Angry? Dong Xuebing could not express his anger, but his heart hurts. He had never felt so uncomfortable before.
Ring … ring … ring … Xie Huilan called.
Dong Xuebing answered softly. "Hello."
"Have you gone online?" Xie Huilan asked.
Dong Xuebing sighed. "Yes. I had just finished reading the forum."
"Are you feeling wronged?"
"Will you believe me if I say I am not wronged?"
"Now, as long as the commoners agree with the public opinion, they will join in the fun. You should know this."
"I know, but … never mind. I am fine."
"I just called the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and they said they will help you clarify the matter. But it's up to fate how much the people will listen to them. This matter has blown up in Fen Zhou City, and I'm afraid the impact on you won't disappear in a day or two. What I'm worried about now is the public's pressure. You have offended a lot of people, and it's inevitable that someone will take advantage of the situation."
"How are they going to instigate the commoners?"
"I don't know. Just be careful."
A few hours later.
Xie Huilan's words came true.
It's time to knock off, and Dong Xuebing packed his stuff and was about to leave when he heard someone shouting outside.
The next moment, Luo Haiting rushed in. "Director, there are people protesting outside the City's Party Committee! They want … want the Commission for Discipline Inspection to investigate you! "
Dong Xuebing's expression changed. He walked over to the window and looked out. A few dozen people were blocking the entrance of the compound. Some were shouting, and some were holding up signs. Some of the signs had the words "Corrupt Official Dong Xuebing" written on them.
Many people like Dong Xuebing!
But there are even more people who hate Dong Xuebing!
Dong Xuebing saw some familiar faces in the crowd. Most of them were the people he had arrested when he was trying to demolish illegal shops in Nanshan District. Some of them were people he had arrested when he was still the Deputy Bureau Chief of Yan Tai County's Public Security Bureau, and the rest were commoners he had never met. They should have seen the news or came to join in the fun. There were about 40 people in the crowd, and more and more people were gathering!
Dong Xuebing smiled. He is not afraid of his political enemies, but he can't do anything to commoners.
