Time passed day by day, and Chen Xing and the others had unknowingly stayed in Yuntian City for almost a month. In addition to receiving instructions from Zhang Mingchen to assist in the investigation of Ning Shuangqi's case, Chen Xing's team was also secretly investigating Tong Baiyan. To be exact, it couldn't be called an investigation, but rather, gathering clues. In this one month, they had more or less collected a lot of useful information.
It was July. After more than 20 days of dry weather, Yuntian, which was located inland, finally welcomed the long-awaited rainy weather. The heavy rain made the windows pitter patter. After continuing to investigate, Chen Xing and the rest took advantage of today's rainy weather to have a rare day off.
The rain came at the right time. Chen Xing stood in front of the window. His forehead was slightly wet from the rain. It was very cooling.
Well, once the rain came, the weather would be much cooler. Jiang Haijun smiled and nodded. He looked at the old trees outside the window that were whistling in the wind. Yuntian was located inland. Where did the strong wind come from?
Who told you that there was no wind in inland cities? Who did you learn geography from? Chen Xing joked.
I learned geography from my physical education teacher.
Someone chuckled at the door. It was Tan Wenlan, who was about to enter. She couldn't help but laugh when she heard Jiang Haijun's words.
Xiao Qin, it's rare for you to have a day off today. Why didn't you go shopping? Jiang Haijun smiled.
Hey, Haijun, did you sleep too much today? Why are you talking nonsense? It's raining and you're asking me why I didn't go shopping? Look at what you're asking. Chen Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Team Leader, don't tell me that a woman's love for shopping can't be understood in a normal way. My wife can happily go shopping with her best friend no matter how heavy the rain is. Jiang Haijun smiled.
Really. Chen Xing shook his head and smiled. He turned to look at Tan Wenlan. Xiao Qin, what's the matter?
Team Leader, I need to go out. I have a friend in Yuntian. I'm free today, so I asked her out. Tan Wenlan said.
Really? Why didn't you mention it before? Chen Xing smiled.
This has nothing to do with our work, so I can't be bothered to mention it. Tan Wenlan smiled and scratched her head.
That's true. Chen Xing smiled and said, "Alright, go ahead. Today is a holiday for you. You can do whatever you want. Actually, you don't need to report to me."
I'm just afraid that you'll criticize me afterward, so I'm here to report. Tan Wenlan replied with a smile. Seeing that Chen Xing had approved it, she immediately said, "Team Leader, I'll go now."
After Tan Wenlan finished speaking, she ran out excitedly.
Little Qin was obedient and well-behaved. Chen Xing shook his head and smiled. According to the rules of the inspection team, one had to report before going out alone, except for the days when they were on vacation. Although Tan Wenlan's behavior was too strict, he was very satisfied with her as a superior.
Retracting his gaze from Tan Wenlan, who had run out, Chen Xing looked out of the window once again. The heavy rain was still pouring down, and there was no sign of it stopping or slowing down. Chen Xing raised his hand to look at the time, rethinking the questions that had been hovering in his mind. Chen Xing's face was solemn. Navy, I intend to make a trip to Quan Ning to officially report to Team Leader Zhang about Tong Baiyan.
Oh? Jiang Haijun raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Xing. "Team Leader, you intend to let the higher-ups file an investigation?
Yes, we've been secretly collecting clues for a month. The information we have is enough to file an investigation. It's time to report to the higher-ups. " Chen Xing nodded and said.
That's right, it's better to report early. Otherwise, we don't know how long we'll be staying in Yun Tian. Who knows, we might have to leave tomorrow when the higher-ups give the first instruction. Jiang Haijun joked and quietly glanced at Chen Xing. Although he didn't show it on his face, he was a little worried. He heard from Qin Minghua, who was staying in Quan Ning, that the new team leader, Zhang Mingchen, seemed to have some opinions about Chen Xing for some reason. Qin Minghua only found out about this when he accidentally overheard Zhang Mingchen talking on the phone. Qin Minghua told him about this in private, but after Jiang Haijun heard it, he didn't dare to tell Chen Xing. This was a problem between the higher-ups, and it wasn't up to small figures like them to get involved. Otherwise, they would be the ones to suffer in the end.
As they were talking, the phone rang. It was a call from Chen Xing. Chen Xing took out his phone and saw that it was a call from Zheng Jing. He couldn't help but pick it up.
Chen Xing, are you free tonight? My wife and I would like to invite you to dinner. On the phone, Zheng Jing's voice was quite cheerful. Her husband had just been discharged from the hospital today, and his body was recovering well. There was no reason for Zheng Jing to be unhappy.
Why, your husband was discharged? Chen Xing asked.
Yes, he was discharged. Now that the discharge procedures have just been completed, he has been thinking about thanking you in person. As a matter of fact, he asked me to call you as soon as he was discharged. She was also very grateful to Chen Xing. If it weren't for Chen Xing, her husband wouldn't have been able to be released from prison. In fact, her husband had already been released from prison more than half a month ago. However, because he was injured in prison, he went to the hospital for a check-up and was hospitalized until today.
There's no need to thank me. Your husband was wronged, and the law should give him a fair judgment. Chen Xing laughed. Now, the review process of the case should have been restarted.
It's time to restart. The court and the prosecution have already informed us. Zheng Jing's face was full of smiles. I have to thank you for this. If it weren't for your help, it wouldn't have been so smooth.
I didn't help much. I only told Liao Jingming the truth about your husband's situation. I didn't say anything else, so you should be thanking Liao Jingming. Chen Xing laughed. Alright, don't say any more words of gratitude. If you really want to treat me to a meal, let's go to your house. Just cook a few home-cooked dishes. There's no need to go to the hotel.
Alright, let's go to my house. I'll go buy some groceries later. You must come over tonight. That's settled. Zheng Jing laughed.
The two hung up the phone. Jiang Haijun heard Chen Xing mention Liao Jingming, and he spoke up. Speaking of Deputy Secretary Liao, he had been seeing a lot of news about him recently. Look, today's Beiqing Daily gave him a big report on the second page. Jiang Haijun said as he flipped the newspaper on the table.
Ever since Ning Shuangqi's incident, the position of mayor was still vacant. From the current signs, there was a high chance that Liao Jingming would be promoted. Chen Xing smiled. Beiqing Daily was the official party newspaper of Beiqing Province. Some of its reports could more or less give people some clues.
We didn't witness the bank robbery the day before yesterday, but looking at the media reports these past two days, this Liao Jingming is worthy of admiration. I think a lot of officials in that situation wouldn't dare to ask the robbers to exchange themselves for hostages. Jiang Haijun smiled. He didn't witness the robbery at the scene, but these two days, the media reports on this shocking case were overwhelming. Many media reports had restored the process at that time, and Jiang Haijun had a general understanding of the situation. That day, Liao Jingming happened to be nearby for an inspection, so he became the first city leader to arrive at the scene after the incident. The robbers had hostages in their hands. Under the deadlock between the robbers and the police, Liao Jingming took the initiative to exchange himself for the hostages … In the end, everyone was happy. The hostages were rescued, and Liao Jingming was safe. Other than one of the robbers being killed, the other three were captured alive.
As soon as this incident was reported, it caused a huge response from the public. These two days, Liao Jingming had undoubtedly become the most popular person. As a person in the same system, Jiang Haijun couldn't help but want to give Liao Jingming a thumbs up. At that time, if there were still people who thought that Liao Jingming was putting on a show in that situation, then there must be something wrong with his head. Who has ever seen an official putting his life on a show?
I saw the media reports that the Deputy Secretary Liao was previously transferred from the army. When he was in the army, he also served in the special forces. It can be seen that the Deputy Secretary Liao didn't dare to make such a request on a whim. Chen Xing smiled.
Regardless of whether he had served in the special forces or not, the fact that he dared to do that in that extremely dangerous situation, this Deputy Secretary Liao was worthy of admiration. Jiang Haijun said seriously.
This was a man worthy of respect. Chen Xing deeply agreed.
