Night.
It's 8 pm.
The County's Party Committee Compound is empty, and everyone had left work. But Dong Xuebing is still sitting alone in his office. He did not move for a few minutes, and the cigarette in his hand is extinguished. Dong Xuebing is still holding onto the cigarette as he looks out of the window. He is deep in thought.
The situation is about to blow up!
There are only a few hours left until tomorrow morning!
If Dong Xuebing does not do anything, he can imagine what will happen to Jiaolin County's leaders will be investigated, and Dong Xuebing will be suspended from his duties. This punishment was not written in the papers because it was published the day after tomorrow, and the higher-ups did not know what to do. But even if Dong Xuebing will not be suspended from his duties, it will be a fatal punishment for Dong Xuebing, who had just been promoted. If possible, Dong Xuebing will not allow this to happen. The Ancient Tomb is not discovered yet, and the County is not promoted yet. Nothing must happen to him.
This is so troublesome. I had just taken office, and I am in such a mess. Are they trying to make things difficult for me? Are they trying to go against me?
I must avoid this!
I must find a way out!
The more dangerous it is, the calmer he must be. Although the situation is bad, Dong Xuebing has his advantage. He had foreseen this incident half a day in advance, and no one else knows about it. That's why Dong Xuebing can use this time to think of a way to salvage the situation. He cannot let this incident implicate him and Jiaolin County. His subordinates and him will not be able to survive this.
Suddenly, someone entered the office.
"Huh? The door is not closed? "
"What's wrong?"
"Ah, Secretary, you are still here?"
"Not yet."
"Sorry, I didn't know you are here. I saw the door was open and wanted to close it." It is a young lady from the County's Party Committee Office. She should be a new staff member and is not very old. "Then … then go ahead."
Dong Xuebing waved his hand to ask her to leave.
The female staff stuck out her tongue and closed the door.
But before the door is closed, Dong Xuebing suddenly called out to her. "What … is your surname?"
"Ah?" The female staff member blinked and said, "My surname is Sun."
"Okay, Xiao Sun." Dong Xuebing said. "Help me get the phone number of our County's City Management Bureau Chief. I need it now."
The female staff member was flattered and said, "Uh, me? Should I check? "
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Yes. Tell me after you are done. Don't tell anyone that I am the one who asked you."
Dong Xuebing had the phone numbers of all the leaders in the County Government. He does not know about the rest of the leaders, but his secretary, Su Yan, and Meng Hanmei should have their numbers. But Dong Xuebing is not going to ask them. He does not want to let anyone know about this. He is afraid of causing trouble. The reason why he is so careful is because he might be about to do something unexpected.
"The number is on our computer there. I'll go right away." She was very nervous. After all, this was a task given to her by the County Party Secretary. She was very diligent. She practically jogged back to the County Party Committee's office. When she got back, the last colleague who was about to leave saw Little Sun was so anxious that she asked her what was wrong. The female staff did not dare to say anything. She gave a few perfunctory replies and soon found the phone number.
Dong Xuebing had already put on his coat and burned the few copies of tomorrow's newspaper in his office.
The female staff member ran into the office and panted. "Secretary, this is for you."
Dong Xuebing looked at the paper and patted her shoulder. "Thank you. Go home early and be careful on your way back." He said and walked down the stairs.
Downstairs.
The driver, Xiao Wang, had left. Dong Xuebing had asked him to leave earlier. That's why Dong Xuebing walked out of the compound alone. At the same time, he took out his phone and called the County's City Management Bureau Chief, Huo Yibang's number. Ring … the line got through.
Dong Xuebing heard a middle-aged man's voice from the other end. "Secretary Dong!"
Seems like Huo Yibang knows Dong Xuebing's phone number. Dong Xuebing's phone number is not a secret among the higher-ups, and Huo Yibang has access to it. Dong Xuebing is not surprised as he does not need to introduce himself. "Chief Huo, are you resting now?"
Huo Yibang quickly replied. "Not yet. It's still early. What do you need?"
Dong Xuebing said seriously. "I need to talk to you. Let's talk when we meet. Do you know the new County's Party Committee Compound? I will meet you at the entrance in 20 minutes. " Dong Xuebing paused for a while and said. "Also, don't tell anyone about our meeting. Come alone."
Huo Yibang was stunned but still replied. "Yes, Secretary!"
"That's all. See you later." Dong Xuebing hung up.
At this time, a taxi arrived, and Dong Xuebing immediately flagged it down. He closed his eyes in the taxi and became more determined. There is not much time left before the Investigation Team arrives tomorrow, and hesitating will only make things worse. Dong Xuebing must be decisive. Other than relationships, Dong Xuebing is not an indecisive person!
I'll do it this way!
There is no other way!
The taxi gradually moved away from the center of the city gate and arrived at this area that had just been developed. When he came here during the day, there were still some people here. But now, it was almost nine o 'clock in the evening, and there were no residential areas nearby. In addition, many of the street lights were not completely fixed. The entire street looked a little desolate and gloomy. By right, the County's Party Committee Compound should be located in the center of the County. After all, it is the County's highest authority. But the new County's Party Committee Compound is not. It's not that they don't want to build it in the center of the County, but the current land prices do not allow them to do so. How much is a meter of land in the center of the County? The land was reserved for developers and was to be auctioned off. It was a series of financial revenue and the foundation for them to repay their debts every year. Therefore, one or two years ago, the county had chosen this piece of land that had not been developed much. The land here was not that important.
The taxi stopped.
The driver asked curiously. "Are you staying here? There are no residential areas here, right? There is a small commercial street that has just been built, but not many shops have been rented out. They are all empty. "
Dong Xuebing paid and alighted. "I am here to take a look."
The driver said. "It's dark now, and you must be careful. Our County's security is not good. Sigh … but this is a remote place, and no one will rob you."
The taxi drove off.
The taillights disappeared into the street.
Dong Xuebing walked briskly into the County Government Compound. After a few turns, he arrived at a palace-like gate. This is the new County's Party Committee Compound, but the gate is locked and surrounded by red walls. Dong Xuebing can't see the buildings inside. He leaned against the gate and lit a cigarette.
On the other side, the headlights shone and a Cruze sped over.
The passenger in the car saw Dong Xuebing and quickly alighted. He is a tall, middle-aged man with deep facial features and looks energetic.
"Secretary! I'm sorry! I'm late! I'm really sorry! " Huo Yibang was slightly embarrassed. Although he was not late and had arrived within 20 minutes, he saw Dong Xuebing had arrived first and was waiting for him. Huo Yibang had to apologize to Dong Xuebing. The leader had arrived first, and Dong Xuebing was late. There was no need to apologize, and Dong Xuebing was the leader.
Dong Xuebing waved his hand. "I am early." He took out a pack of cigarettes and gave it to Dong Xuebing before lighting one for himself.
Huo Yibang wanted to light it for Dong Xuebing.
But Dong Xuebing did not let Huo Yibang have a cigarette and lit it himself.
Huo Yibang did not say anything and started smoking with the Leader. He was worried in his heart. He does not know why Dong Xuebing is looking for him and did not expect Dong Xuebing to call him and ask him to keep it a secret. Dong Xuebing even wants to meet him alone without his driver. Huo Yibang looked at the dark surroundings and felt goosebumps. Did he make a mistake? But no. Even if there is, Dong Xuebing should not be looking for him personally. Huo Yibang is not qualified to look for Dong Xuebing. That's why Huo Yibang was in a mess. There were many exaggerated rumors about Dong Xuebing in the County, such as how he flipped a car with a kick, and how he knocked out dozens of people with a shout. Huo Yibang even wondered if Dong Xuebing was going to kill him. His thoughts ran wild on the way here.
The atmosphere was quiet.
Only Dong Xuebing and Huo Yibang were smoking on the empty street.
Dong Xuebing rolled up his sleeves and looked at his watch. He then looked at Huo Yibang, who he does not know, but he has no choice. "Chief Huo."
Huo Yibang immediately stood up straight. "Secretary, just let me know if you need anything."
Dong Xuebing replied. "I have something to discuss with you. Some people might think it is a big deal, and that's why I did not ask you to tell anyone about it. But I feel it should be a small matter to you and your City's Bureau."
Huh?
Small matter?
Sigh … Don't scare me again!
Huo Yibang relaxed. He thought Dong Xuebing wanted to tell him about a small matter. "Ok. What do you need us to do?"
Dong Xuebing threw away his cigarette and points to the new County Party Committee Compound. "Do you see this place?"
Huo Yibang blinked. "I see it. This is the new County Party Committee Compound."
Dong Xuebing nodded. "Your mission is simple. From the walls to the main gate, all the buildings inside must be razed to the ground before tomorrow morning!"
Ah?
Huo Yibang almost vomited blood when he heard Dong Xuebing!
