Afternoon. It was past 4 pm.
Dong Xuebing was sipping Longjing tea in an old teahouse in Nanshan District while waiting for Xu Yan's call. After a while, Xu Yan called.
"Sister Xu, how is it?"
"Everyone is under control, including Pang Bing."
"Haha, thank you for your help. I …"
"Kid, you're just too polite. Don't waste time, I'll handle the rest."
"Then … are they going to charge him with espionage? But is there any evidence? "
"Let's investigate for a few days first."
"Alright. Thank you for your help. I will treat you to dinner tomorrow."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing finished his tea and understood what Sister Xu is trying to say. Of course, Dong Xuebing cannot be charged with espionage. Those photos and stalking photos were set up by Dong Xuebing and Xu Yan to lure Liu Gang and Pang Bing. Also, Liu Gang and Pang Bing will not be involved in espionage, and the police will not be able to find anything. But now, Dong Xuebing has the upper hand. Even if Liu Gang and Pang Bing cannot be charged with espionage, the investigation will last for at least a month or two. Anyway, no one can prove anything. Let's lock them up for now and torture Liu Gang and Pang Bing. After the investigation, they will hand them over to the local Public Security. They will not be able to escape from being charged with spying on government officials.
If someone tortures me, I will bring harm to them.
Setting up Liu Gang and Pang Bing is only the beginning. Dong Xuebing's purpose is not to give them a warning. He wants to wait for Liu Gang and Pang Bing to be released before giving them a chance to take revenge on him. Of course not. Dong Xuebing wants to ruin their reputations and stop them from doing anything in the future!
Dong Xuebing got the number of Nan Qi Morning Newspaper's Dong Haitao and called.
"Hello, who is this?"
"I'm Dong Xuebing from Guangming Street Office."
"… … Chief Dong."
Before Dong Hai Tao could say anything, Dong Xuebing started scolding him. "Chief Dong, your newspaper agency is too much. Did I, Dong Xuebing, snatch your agency's wife or kill your agency's son? You all had tried to frame me several times? What is the meaning of this? Let me ask you all what is the meaning of this? I won't mention the last time. You might not have understood the situation and believed what you heard, so the report was a little extreme. But isn't one time enough? You want to give me a second and a third time? Did you distribute the morning papers this morning? And I even broke his bones? Fine, find out who the f * * k has a fracture for me! Find it and let me see! I'm not going to stop ignoring you guys! What is the meaning of this? And now your vice president, Pang Dabing, has sent Liu Gang to follow and monitor me? Who gave you the right to do so? Do you still have any respect for the law? Huh? If it wasn't for my comrades from the State Security informing me! I didn't know you were so daring! "
Dong Haitao replied. "Chief Dong, this might be a misunderstanding."
"Alright, let's check it out! Let's see if it is a misunderstanding! "Dong Xuebing hangs up.
…
At the headquarters of Nanqi Morning Post.
Putting down his phone, Dong Haitao was under a lot of pressure. If it was just a stalking scandal, he could barely suppress it. But he heard that this matter involved the State Security. Pang Dabing and Liu Gang's homes had been sealed by the State Security. Until now, Dong Haitao still did not know what had happened.
Dong Haitao could not sit still and immediately contacted the State Security. He wants to know what happened to Pang Dabing and Liu Gang.
Because Dong Haitao is the Editor of Nan Qi Morning News, the other party told him that Pang Dabing and Liu Gang were suspected of being spies and had been arrested.
Spies?
Dong Haitao broke out in cold sweat. He was not involved in the plot to frame Dong Xuebing and does not know what Pang Dabing and Liu Gang had done today. When he heard Pang Dabing and Liu Gang might be spies and had even followed the State Security's Chief, Dong Haitao almost cursed Pang Dabing and Liu Gang's ancestors. If Nan Qi Morning Post's higher-ups and reporters were spies, then Dong Haitao, as the Newspaper Editor, should be held accountable. If this was true, he will lose his position. Will the State Security take action against his newspaper agency?
Damn!
How did I get into this mess?!
Dong Haitao was on pins and needles. He immediately called for an emergency meeting.
Ten minutes later, in a small meeting room in the newspaper agency.
Dong Haitao looked at the leaders in the room and said in a serious tone. "Let me tell all of you a piece of news. Pang Dabing and Liu Gang might have used their positions to leak information to other countries and had been arrested by the State Security."
Everyone in the room heard this and took in a deep breath!
Everyone knew Pang Dabing and Liu Gang were in trouble, but they did not expect it to be this serious!
One of the leaders quickly asked. "President, is this news reliable?"
Dong Haitao replied. "It's only a suspicion, and there is no concrete evidence yet. But we had found out that they were involved in stalking the City's State Security's Chief Xu and Guangming Street's Chief Dong."
"This Pang Dabing! How … "
"President, will this implicate the newspaper agency?"
Dong Haitao did not reply. If this matter was investigated, it will implicate the newspaper agency and all the leaders. "Everyone, what should we do?"
No one said anything.
Dong Haitao looked at the person on his left. "Old Zhou, what do you think?"
Chief Editor Old Zhou paused for a while. "Although this matter is not clear, we must make our stand clear. We must come up with a solution as soon as possible. I think we should fire Liu Gang first. No matter what, it is not right for him to stalk a State Security leader." Liu Gang is an insignificant person, and everyone nodded. Old Zhou paused for a while. "As for President Pang … … Suspend him first? Fire him after reporting to the higher-ups? " Their espionage charges were not confirmed, and they cannot use this as an excuse. But stalking a State Security leader can be used as an excuse to fire them.
This was what Dong Haitao wanted to hear. He banged the table. "Fine! Let's do this! What do you all think? "
None of the others objected. Even those who had a good relationship with Pang Biing kept their mouths shut. They were suspected of being a spy, and the more they spoke, the more likely they were to slip up. If they spoke up for Pang Biing, it would be hard to avoid being used as an excuse. Oh, you have a good relationship with Pang Biing? God knows if the State Security will look for them next!
The proposal was passed quickly!
The leaders of Nanqi Morning Post all knew that Pang Dabing and Liu Gang had to cut ties with them as soon as possible to avoid being implicated. Even if they found out in the end that they weren't spies, the news agency wouldn't want them. Right now, it was better to be safe than sorry. Furthermore, this incident was caused by Pang Dabing and Liu Gang. Spying on government officials was a good opportunity to use them as an explanation.
