Near noon, Chen Xing came out of the office. At noon, a banquet was held at the Municipal Party Committee's guest house to entertain the people from the Ministry. Chen Xing would also attend. Wangshan City undoubtedly attached great importance to the Ministry's inspection.
When he passed by Huang Jianghua's office next door and saw that Huang Jianghua's office door was closed, Chen Xing frowned in confusion. He had just called the office's internal line, but Huang Jianghua did not answer. Now the office door was closed. What was Huang Jianghua doing?
Chief Wei, where was Secretary Huang? Seeing Wei Sida coming over, Chen Xing asked.
At about 11 o 'clock, I saw Secretary Huang go out. Secretary, didn't Secretary Huang tell you that he was going out? Wei Sida asked curiously.
Really? Chen Xing frowned slightly. As his secretary, Huang Jianghua didn't even tell him, the leader, that he was going to leave. This had never happened before.
Wei Sida stood quietly at the side. He vaguely knew something, but he kept his head down and pretended that he didn't know anything.
Let's go to the guest house first. Chen Xing didn't pay any more attention to this matter and turned to go downstairs.
In the car, Chen Xing pondered for a while and dialed Huang Jianghua's number. Soon, there was a notification that the other party's phone had been turned off.
Xiao Huang was really strange today. Chen Xing muttered to himself. He looked up at Li Yong, who was driving, and asked in confusion, "Xiao Huang, do you know what happened to Xiao Huang today?
Secretary Huang? I don't know. He was fine when I came over this morning. " Li Yong replied.
Hearing this, Chen Xing knew that Li Yong didn't understand the situation, so he didn't ask more. He felt strange about Huang Jianghua's abnormality today. Thinking about the posts about Huang Jianghua on the Internet these two days, Chen Xing had a bad feeling.
It was quiet in the car for a while. Li Yong drove the car attentively. Li Yong also knew something about Huang Jianghua. He didn't know whether it was true or not. However, he lived in the same building as Huang Jianghua, and he had seen Huang Jianghua come back early in the morning several times. He also felt that Huang Jianghua was a little abnormal from some details. Deep in his heart, Li Yong actually believed that the post might be true.
Driving his own car, Li Yong didn't tell some of the details he knew to Chen Xing. If it was in the past, Li Yong might choose to tell Chen Xing. In the past, he was a person who couldn't hide things in his heart and was honest. Now, Li Yong didn't know when he became a person who didn't know himself.
In the back seat of the car, after a short silence, Chen Xing looked at Li Yong and suddenly asked, "Xiao Li, you went to bed early last night. How did you sleep? Didn't you have insomnia again?"
"Ah?" Li Yong was stunned by Chen Xing's question. At this moment, he almost yawned, but he forcibly held it back.
"I … I'm fine." Li Yong answered Chen Xing's question with an unnatural expression.
"At your age, you don't have much pressure, so you shouldn't have insomnia. It's strange that you have insomnia." Chen Xing smiled faintly and gazed at Li Yong. Because Li Yong was sitting in the front, he couldn't see Li Yong's face. He could only see the side of Li Yong's face. Even so, Chen Xing could still see that Li Yong was a little unnatural. In the past, he didn't notice it. Now that he observed Li Yong carefully, how could Chen Xing not notice it?
I don't understand it either. Maybe I've been living too comfortably, so I can't sleep. Li Yong said with a smile.
Chen Xing listened to Li Yong with a smile. He didn't show any other expression on his face and continued to ask, "Xiao Li, do you have a girlfriend now?"
"No, my family has been urging me, but I haven't found a suitable one." Li Yong answered with a smile.
Chen Xing didn't ask any more questions. A trace of disappointment flashed in the depths of his eyes. Li Yong, who used to be simple and honest, had also learned to lie. Chen Xing didn't ask Li Yong about what happened in the bar last night. What was the point of asking now?
The car arrived at the guest house. Chen Xing calmed himself down and got off the car. At noon, he had to entertain a group of people from the Ministry, so he couldn't attend the banquet absent-mindedly.
While Chen Xing was attending the banquet at the guest house of the Municipal Party Committee, in a hidden place in Nanzhou.
Huang Ming, who had been missing since noon yesterday, was now in one of the slightly dark rooms. A strong light was shining on Huang Ming. Huang Ming was sitting on a chair with his hands cuffed. It was obvious that he had lost his freedom.
At this moment, Huang Ming's eyes were bloodshot. Since he was brought here yesterday afternoon, Huang Ming hadn't eaten much. Hunger didn't make Huang Ming feel uncomfortable. The other party didn't stop him from eating, nor did they beat him up. The only thing they didn't allow him to sleep, especially when the lights in the room were turned off. Who knew how many watts of strong light kept shining on him. This made Huang Ming very uncomfortable. He just wanted to have a good sleep, but the other party didn't allow him to do so.
Why did you arrest me? I'm just a commoner, running a small business to earn money. I'm not an official. What right do you have to arrest me? Huang Ming stared at the middle-aged man sitting opposite him. His face was full of anger. At first, he was panicking when he was brought here, but now he was angry. Huang Ming's mentality was becoming more and more agitated. He didn't know why these people from the discipline inspection department were looking for him. Since yesterday, no one had asked him anything. They just let him stay alone and didn't let him sleep. Huang Ming still didn't know why these people were looking for him.
The middle-aged man raised his head and glanced at Huang Ming. He still didn't say anything, and quickly lowered his head to look at the book on the table.
Huang Ming saw that the other party was ignoring him. He couldn't help but close his eyes. He wanted to sleep for a while, but as soon as he closed his eyes, the other party immediately came over and woke him up.
What do you want? Huang Ming was furious.
The middle-aged man curled his lips and continued to ignore Huang Ming. At this moment, there was a movement at the door. Someone pushed the door open and came in. The person who came in looked at the middle-aged man, and the two of them exchanged glances. The middle-aged man then said, "Huang Ming, be honest. Since you started your business, how much profit have you had with Chen Xing? How much profit have you given him? "
Huang Ming squinted his eyes. He was originally very sleepy, but at this moment, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. He suddenly woke up and looked at the two middle-aged men cautiously, shaking his head. "I don't know what you are talking about. I've been friends with Chen Xing for more than ten years. We've been classmates since high school, and our relationship has always been very good. We've known each other for almost twenty years, and we're very good friends."
Very good friends? The middle-aged man looked at Huang Ming with a faint smile. "Hmm, I don't deny that you're very good friends. After all, you've known each other for so many years. However, is the relationship between the two of you just purely friends? All these years, your business has been so smooth, and you've been doing very well in the business world. Do you dare to say that you have nothing to do with Chen Xing? "
"What a joke. My business has been very smooth. What does it have to do with Chen Xing?" "Are you saying that without Chen Xing, I wouldn't be able to do my business?" Huang Ming stared at the middle-aged man and flatly denied.
"Without Chen Xing, your business may be doing well, but it's impossible to reach such a scale in just a few years." Another man walked to Huang Ming's side and looked down at him. "We've investigated carefully. Your history is almost the same as Chen Xing's rise in the officialdom. As Chen Xing rose higher and higher in the officialdom, your business also grew bigger and bigger. At first, you were in Ningcheng City. Later, Chen Xing was transferred to Ximen County, and your hotel was also opened in Ximen. Later, Chen Xing was transferred to Nanzhou, and you followed him to Nanzhou and invested in Jin Du Hotel. Tell me, does your business have anything to do with Chen Xing? If you say that you and Chen Xing are just friends and have no business dealings, I don't think anyone will believe you.
I don't know what logic you're talking about. I have a good relationship with Chen Xing, so I have business dealings with him? Don't you think this logic is very funny? " Huang Ming sneered.
"Huang Ming, don't avoid the important and dwell on the trivial. You didn't even answer my question just now, which means that you're guilty." The man looked at Huang Ming. "It seems that if we don't give you some evidence, you won't confess."
As the man spoke, he walked to the table and picked up a document. This was some information they had investigated and sorted out. In fact, there wasn't much information, because they hadn't been able to find much evidence about the business dealings between Huang Ming and Chen Xing. But at this moment, the man obviously couldn't show it, or he wouldn't be able to scare Huang Ming. The man said, "When you first opened the hotel, the registration information in the Bureau of Industry and Commerce showed that Chen Xing held 20% of the shares. Later, after Chen Xing was transferred to Ximen County to take up a leadership position, the shareholder was changed to Chen Xing's father. You said that there was no business dealings between you and Chen Xing. How do you explain this? At that time, the 20% shares of Chen Xing were probably the shares you gave him. Later, when Chen Xing took up a leadership position, he gave the shares to his father to avoid suspicion.
"What you said is your unfounded speculation. The truth is not like that at all." Huang Ming looked straight at the man without changing his expression. Although he looked very calm, Huang Ming's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect the man to investigate something that happened a few years ago. "At that time, Chen Xing held 20% of the shares with his own money. I invested one million yuan in the hotel, and Chen Xing invested 200,000 yuan, so it's reasonable for him to hold 20% of the shares. At that time, the money was the savings of Chen Xing's work for several years. Moreover, when I invested in the hotel, Chen Xing was just a small staff member in the Political Research Office of the Municipal Party Committee. He had no power or influence. I didn't know that he would become brilliant in the future, and there was no so-called disguised bribery. What you said is obviously nonsense."
"As for the change of the shareholder to Chen Xing's father, it was because Chen Xing himself said that it was not suitable for him to hold shares because he was in a leadership position, which violated the relevant rules and regulations. Therefore, he took the initiative to no longer hold shares and changed the shareholder to his father. All of this can be investigated. Every cent of the transaction is also clean." Huang Ming continued. He didn't know why Chen Xing was investigated, but at this moment, he undoubtedly had to speak in the direction that was most beneficial to Chen Xing.
After a pause, Huang Ming organized his words and said, "I don't understand why you investigated a good and honest official like Chen Xing. What I want to say is that there are not many cadres like Chen Xing now. If he was greedy for money, even if he didn't hold the shares himself, he could continue to let his father hold the shares. But later, I think you can also find out from the information in the Bureau of Industry and Commerce that Chen Xing's father is not even a shareholder now. Because Chen Xing said that he is a cadre of the Party, not only should he take care of himself, but he should also take care of his family. Whatever he does must be clean, so he asked his father to transfer the shares to me two years ago. Don't you think that an official like Chen Xing, who is so strict with himself and his family, is very rare and valuable?"
"Oh, I didn't know that you were so good at talking. We are asking you about the case, but you are singing the praises of Chen Xing in front of us." The middle-aged man sneered.
"Everything I said was not singing the praises of Chen Xing, but the truth. I am willing to take responsibility for what I said." Huang Ming said seriously.
"Take responsibility for what you said? How can you take responsibility? You are the target of the investigation, so what right do you have to take responsibility? " The middle-aged man sneered.
The other man was silent at this moment. He pulled the middle-aged man and winked at him. The man said, "Huang Ming, cut the crap. As long as you confess to the benefits between you and Chen Xing, we will let you leave immediately."
"I have no benefits with him at all. How can I confess to him?" Huang Ming's eyes widened in anger.
"Really? Don't you want to think about it? " The man looked at Huang Ming with a playful smile.
"It seems that you only didn't sleep for one night, so you are still full of energy. I will let you stay up for two more nights. Let's see if you can still be so stubborn." The middle-aged man also said. After that, he adjusted the strong light that was shining directly on Huang Ming. The intensity of the light increased, making Huang Ming's eyes uncomfortable.
Huang Ming finally reacted and said angrily, "You are trying to extort a confession. You are trying to frame me. This is against the law. I will sue you."
