That afternoon.
Zhen Anguo was still thinking about Dong Xuebing. He was hesitating if he should do Xu Yan a favor.
Ring, ring, ring, ring. The phone on Zhen Anguo's desk rang. He picked it up and heard an angry voice. Zhen Anguo was stunned. "Western District Branch! It's your Western District Branch again! What are you all trying to do? Ah? I want to know what you all are trying to do! "
Yan Lei, who was at the side, heard the angry voice. His face changed. Who is this person? Who dares to shout at Chief Zhen?
Zhen Anguo heard the voice and immediately knew who it was. He asked seriously: "Chief Jiang, what happened?"
Yan Lei got a shock. Chief Jiang? Could it be that Chief Jiang? What's going on? Why did Chief Jiang call Chief Zhen's office directly?
5 minutes later.
Dong Xuebing was waiting anxiously in his office for news of his promotion. He felt that Zhen Anguo would not reject him, but he was not confident. Xu Yan had promised him this promotion, and it should not be a problem. But the most important thing was the timing. Dong Xuebing wanted to be promoted within a week, or within a year or two. But there was a huge difference between the two. Dong Xuebing wanted to be promoted within a week … … No, it would be best if he could get promoted today. That's why he was so anxious.
There was a knock on the door, and Tan Limei entered. "Chief Bing Zhi."
Dong Xuebing laughed: "Alright. There are no outsiders here. Just call me Bing Zhi will do."
Tan Limei said: "Bing Zhi, something might have happened in the branch. I heard Chief Zhen had called Chief Xu, the Sixth Bureau Chief, and a few other leaders for an emergency meeting. Something serious had happened, and the atmosphere was tense." Emergency meeting was rare in the Western District Branch, unless it was something urgent.
Dong Xuebing was stunned: "What happened?" He was still working at the top and did not hear about it.
"I don't know. I heard about it and immediately came to report to you."
Dong Xuebing frowned: "Ask Panwei to go and find out what happened." This was the crucial period for Dong Xuebing's promotion, and he needs to know what was happening at the top.
"Yes." Tan Limei accepted her task and left.
Guo Panwei had many connections in the branch, and he was efficient. After a while, he entered Dong Xuebing's office. "Chief Dong, I had found out that the emergency meeting is because the Sixth Bureau had arrested the wrong person!"
The General Affairs Office, Political Section, Finance Section, Commission for Discipline Inspection, etc. are all part of the administrative departments. They only handle internal affairs and do not handle external cases that threaten the national security. The only department in charge of these cases is the Sixth Bureau. Of course, the Sixth Bureau is not in charge of those serious cases. Those cases are handled by the City Bureau and higher-level State Security agencies. The cases handled by the Sixth Bureau are much smaller. For example, taking photos of the building outside the District Government building every day with a camera, or making some reactionary comments to the public. These might seem to overlap with the Public Security Department, but in fact, this is the Sixth Bureau's job.
Dong Xuebing did not understand. "Is the Wu's Wen. in." Dong Dong Guang "Bing said."
Guo Panwei took a deep breath and said: "I had just heard about this from someone. You should know that there was a group of people spreading rumors about the earthquake on the internet, right? The Sixth Bureau had received news that someone saw a man using his laptop to spread rumors about the earthquake in a cafe. After that, the Sixth Bureau went over to arrest him. That man resisted and got into physical contact with the officers from the Sixth Bureau and injured the suspect. But when they checked his laptop, they found out that there was a picture in his QQ chat history. It was similar to the picture used to spread rumors about the earthquake. The fonts were similar, but the content was different. The content was something like 'whoever saw this picture must forward it to 100 people. If not, I will … …'. This is a prank picture! "
Arrested the wrong person? After all, the State Security relied on their intelligence officers to get information from them. That's why the information they got was not as accurate as the Public Security Bureau and the Prosecutor's Office. Dong Xuebing knew that the Sixth Bureau had arrested the wrong person before. But if they arrested the wrong person, they should just let the person go. If they beat the person up, they should just compensate the person's medical fees. Why is Chief Zhen so nervous?
Guo Panwei could tell Chief Xiao Dong was puzzled and quickly explained: "But the person beaten up by the Sixth Bureau is not someone else. It is someone related to our agency."
"What's his background?"
Guo Panwei lowered his head and said softly: "That person's father is related to Beijing's State Security Bureau's Chief. I don't know what kind of relatives they are, but their surnames are Jiang, and they should be close."
Dong Xuebing was stunned. The head of the State Security Bureau? Chief Jiang? This is like a flood against the Dragon King's temple!
"Now, the City's Chief Jiang is furious and wants an explanation from our Western District Branch. Why did the State Security arrest a family member of a State Security officer?" Guo Panwei replied: "That's why Chief Zhen had called for an emergency meeting. He wants to discuss how to settle this. Who should take the blame and how to appease Chief Jiang? You should also know about our bureau's corruption and bribery case last week. The City Bureau is already unhappy with our branch. Now, this incident happened and made things worse." Dong Xuebing finally understood.
Dong Xuebing finally understood why Zhen Anguo and the rest of the leaders reacted so strongly. This was a serious matter. Thinking about it from another perspective, if his own mother was arrested and beaten up by the people from his own branch, wouldn't he go crazy? This was too disgusting! No wonder Bureau Chief Jiang flew into a rage!
After a while, this incident became a hot topic of discussion in the Bureau.
Everyone was filled with emotions. This year was going to be a disastrous year for the Western District Branch. Why did another wave of trouble arise before the previous one subsided? The City Bureau's Chief Jiang was in charge of the City's Party Committee. He can easily get the branch's leaders transferred. Who can withstand his anger? This time, someone will have to step down.
On the other side.
Chief's office.
Zhen Anguo did not even have time to go to the meeting room. He called the relevant leaders to his office for an emergency meeting. This incident put Zhen Anguo in a difficult position. When he received Chief Jiang's call, he did not know what was going on. It was only after Chief Jiang gave him a scolding that he understood what was going on. It was the document Zhen Anguo had signed in the morning. Not only they arrested the wrong person, but they also beat up the relative of the City Bureau's Chief. This was no longer beating up someone. This was slapping the City Bureau's Chief's face!
"Are his injuries serious?" Chief Zhen did not want to waste time and went straight to the point.
A Deputy Chief of the Sixth Bureau replied: "It's not serious. His eyes are bruised and his wrists are swollen. But his bones are not hurt."
Zhen Anguo nodded. "Where is the officer who beat him up?"
The Sixth Bureau Deputy Chief sighed. "In my office."
Yan Lei was standing behind Chief Zhen. In his heart, he felt bad for Chief Zhen. He had only been in the branch for a few days, and he got into such a mess.
Chief Jian from the Sixth Bureau was wearing his State Security uniform. He was in his 40s and was a muscular middle-aged man. He rarely appeared in the branch's main building, and he was the one responsible for this incident. When he saw Chief Zhen was going to hold him accountable, he immediately said: "Chief Zhen, intelligence reports are not always accurate. No one wants to see this happen. My men had done something wrong, but it was the other party who beat him up first. He … …"
Zhen Anguo knew something was wrong and interrupted him: "We are discussing how to solve this problem and not pushing the blame to others. The City Bureau's Chief Jiang is on his way to the hospital to visit the injured. He does not have time for us to discuss here." Zhen Anguo looked at Xu Yan and Chief Jian. "How about this? Chief Xu and Chief Jian follow me to the hospital. We will discuss how to deal with the related personnel on the way."
The emergency meeting ended quickly. It only took about 4 to 5 minutes.
After that, the few leaders rushed to the hospital. Although the injured person was not seriously injured, they must show their respect. This was because the injured person was not someone else's family member. He was Chief Jiang's family member!
Dong Xuebing, who was standing in the corridor, saw the leaders leaving in a hurry. He knew this was a tricky situation. Even if the officer who beat up the injured person was dealt with, who knows what Chief Jiang would do? Will he continue to make a fuss about this incident? Will Chief Jiang continue to hold onto this incident?
Xuanwu Hospital.
Zhen Anguo and the rest's car entered the hospital's carpark. When they were about to enter the clinic, the Sixth Bureau's Deputy Chief saw Chief Jiang's car coming from afar. Zhen Anguo and the rest did not care about entering the hospital and quickly chase after Chief Jiang's car. Chief Jiang's driver did not stop his car. He drove past Xu Yan, Zhen Anguo, and the rest and stopped at an empty spot not far away.
Zhen Anguo was not angry at all. He smiled bitterly in his heart and walked towards the direction of Chief Jiang's car.
The car door opened, and a middle-aged man in his 50s alighted. He was not tall, but he had an imposing manner. He was the City Bureau's Head, Chief Jiang. Many people knew that Director Jiang was actually a very quiet person. He liked calligraphy, painting, and gardening. He was a person who paid great attention to self-cultivation and would not easily lose his temper. However, today, Director Jiang had a straight face. He stared coldly at Zhen Anguo, who was walking over, as if he was in a rage. It was no wonder that Chief Jiang was angry. His nephew had been beaten up by someone from the State Security. How could he put his face after this?
"Chief Jiang." Zhen Anguo had already discussed with the other leaders in the car. He said, "This time, it was our negligence. I'm really sorry to have frightened your family. Well, I promise that when I go back, I will severely punish those responsible, especially the two police officers who had a physical altercation with your family. They must be dealt with seriously."
Chief Jiang stared into Zhen Anguo's eyes and said, "Mend the pen after the sheep is lost.
Zhen Anguo replied. "I promise this will not happen again."
Chief Jiang snorted and did not say anything. He turned and walked towards the hospital. Zhen Anguo and the rest wanted to follow him to visit the injured officer. But Chief Jiang suddenly turned around. "Wait here!" Zhen Anguo and the rest stopped and watched Chief Jiang and his driver enter the hospital.
Outside.
Xu Yan was worried. "Chief Jiang is very angry. I am afraid … …"
Everyone could tell from Chief Jiang's attitude that this matter would not end peacefully. It was not enough to deal with two State Security Officers. But the leaders of the Western District Branch had just been reshuffled twice, and they could not afford any more trouble. If Chief Jiang were to pursue this matter, who would he target? The Deputy Division Chief? Division Chief Jian? The Deputy Bureau Chief? That would have a huge impact, especially on Zhen Anguo. He had offended the head of the Municipal Public Security Bureau a few days after he took office. Zhen Anguo, who wanted to show off his skills in the State Security, would have a hard time in the future.
Sigh. Why did they have to arrest Chief Jiang's relative?!
What the f * * k is going on?!
Xu Yan and the rest of the leaders stood at the entrance of the hospital. They did not dare to move a single step.
The Sixth Bureau's Deputy Chief was the most anxious one. He will surely be held accountable. He rubbed his palms and thought for a while. Suddenly, a name popped up in his mind. This name had become famous in the Western District Branch for the past 3 months. If he is here … … Then … … The Sixth Bureau's Deputy Chief was like his last hope. He quickly said to Xu Yan: "Chief Xu, is Chief Xiao Dong off work? Let him come. "
Xu Yan frowned.
Chief Jian, who rarely visits the branch, had heard of Chief Xiao Dong's miraculous deeds. He was stunned for a while and agreed. "Anyway, there is nothing we can do now. Let Chief Xiao Dong try and see if he can save us."
Yan Lei was stunned. What do you mean? Why did they call him here? Why do the leaders seem to trust Dong Xuebing so much? Isn't he just the Chief of the General Affairs Office? He is still the Deputy Chief! What right does he have to be mentioned by so many leaders? Yan Lei was shocked by what the leaders said. He realized that he had made a mistake. This Dong Xuebing … … is not an ordinary Deputy Chief.
Zhen Anguo also does not believe Chief Xiao Dong can solve this problem. But when he remembered what Xu Yan had told him about Xiao Dong's deeds and the phrase "look for Xiao Dong if you have any problems." Zhen Anguo decided to give it a try.
Xu Yan did not want Dong Xuebing to come. It was not because she does not trust him. It was because she does not want him to get involved in this mess. This matter has nothing to do with the General Affairs Office. But when Zhen Anguo nodded to her, Xu Yan had no choice. She took out her phone and walked away. She called the General Affairs Office. "Hello, Xiao Dong. Come to Xuanwu Hospital now … …"
