After chatting with Zhang Yiping for a while, Chen Xing left Zhang Yiping's office. Zhang Yiping also walked Chen Xing to the door of the office.
"Secretary Yiping, please stay." Chen Xing said to Zhang Yiping with a smile.
"Okay, take care." Zhang Yiping said with a smile.
Chen Xing nodded and took a deep look at her. Then Chen Xing turned around and left. Although he was talking and laughing with Zhang Yiping, Chen Xing knew clearly that both of them were uncomfortable. Zhang Yiping was not as polite to him as she appeared to be, and he didn't have a good impression of Zhang Yiping either. The reason why they could sit together and talk and laugh was that their identities and positions determined that they had to be like this. More importantly, Zhang Yiping was new here. Chen Xing could see that Zhang Yiping, who had just taken office, was also restraining herself.
When entering the elevator, Chen Xing saw that Zhang Yiping was still standing at the door of the office. Seeing him looking at her, Zhang Yiping smiled and waved at him. If the staff passing by saw this scene, they would undoubtedly think that the new secretary and the mayor got along well.
"Pretentious!" Zhang Yiping was really good at disguising herself. When Chen Xing saw Zhang Yiping's smiling face, he didn't know why, but the thought of revenge suddenly rose in his heart. Previously, Zhang Ran had been sending him ambiguous signals, but Chen Xing couldn't be bothered to pay attention to it. At this moment, Chen Xing couldn't help but think of taking revenge on Zhang Yiping through Zhang Ran.
"Alas, what are you thinking about?" Coming down from the building of the Municipal Party Committee, Chen Xing smiled bitterly and patted his forehead. "Look at me, I can't believe I'm thinking about something messy."
After returning to the Municipal Party Committee, Chen Xing saw Zheng Zhongqiang waiting in the corridor and asked in confusion. "Director Zheng, when did you come here?"
"I arrived as soon as you left." Zheng Zhongqiang shrugged with a smile.
"You've been waiting for a while. Why don't you sit in the lounge? Why are you standing outside?" Chen Xing said with a smile.
He was getting old, and it was better for him to stand more. Besides, he couldn't sit still anymore.
Hearing this, Chen Xing looked at Zheng Zhongqiang thoughtfully. After they entered the office, Chen Xing invited Zheng Zhongqiang to take a seat. Then he asked, "Director Zheng, you must be here for something important, right?"
Yes, Mayor, you should have an impression of Luo Shuangli's nephew, Luo Shiming. He is the boss of that demolition company.
I haven't seen this person before, but I definitely remember this person. What's the matter? Could it be that there's more to this case? Chen Xing cast a puzzled look at Zheng Zhongqiang.
It was an unexpected situation. Zheng Zhongqiang nodded and looked back at the office door. After confirming that it was closed, Zheng Zhongqiang said, "Mayor, this Luo Shiming took the initiative to confess that he bribed the son of Hua Dong's secretary, and the amount was not small."
Is there such a thing? Chen Xing sat up straight.
Yes, he said it himself, and there was even a recording. Zheng Zhongqiang nodded.
How much? At this moment, Chen Xing's face also became serious.
The largest amount was one million yuan, which was sent recently. Luo Shiming told Zhu Fuyun that he wanted Zhu Fuyun to help him settle the demolition case, so he gave him one million yuan in cash. Zhu Fuyun accepted it and promised that he would settle it. Zheng Zhongqiang said, and then he added that Zhu Fuyun was the son of Hua Dong's secretary.
One million in cash? Hearing this, Chen Xing smiled mockingly. Such a large amount of money in cash. The person who gave and received the money was very cautious.
Hehe, they were very cautious, but they didn't have any good intentions. Zheng Zhongqiang shook his head and smiled.
Hearing Zheng Zhongqiang's words, Chen Xing curled his lips. If Chen Xing still didn't understand what was going on, there must be something wrong with his IQ. Obviously, Zhu Huadong's son took the money but did not do the work, so Luo Shiming dragged him out after he went to the police station. Otherwise, Luo Shiming would not do such a thing that would hurt both sides.
Zhu Huadong's son dared to take any money. Chen Xing said seriously.
Nowadays, many young people are deceiving their fathers. Zheng Zhongqiang smiled. Thinking of something, he wanted to say something but stopped. After hesitating for a moment, Zheng Zhongqiang said, "But I have heard some rumors before. It is said that Hua Dong's secretary is also very bold in taking money, and he dares to take any money. His son is not deceiving his father. To be precise, it should be said that his son is of the same origin."
When Chen Xing heard Zheng Zhongqiang's words, he almost burst out laughing. The father and son were of the same lineage. Although Zheng Zhongqiang's words sounded a little funny, Chen Xing couldn't bring himself to laugh when he thought about it carefully. This was the corruption of the family caused by power. It was the tragedy of the system.
After a long silence, Chen Xing asked, "Director Zheng, besides one million, what else do you have?"
One million was the largest single sum. In addition, Luo Shiming said that he would usually send some expensive gifts to Zhu Fuyun, such as cigarettes and wine. He had also sent watches that cost more than a hundred thousand yuan, and he had even sent many gifts to Zhu Fuyun's lover.
Lover? Chen Xing was stunned.
Zhu Fuyun was married, and he also had a lover outside.
Chen Xing suddenly understood and said, "This Luo Shiming is also good at currying favor. He even used the lover route."
Hearing Chen Xing's ridicule, Zheng Zhongqiang smiled bitterly. "Mayor, the trouble now is how to deal with this matter."
Bribery was not within the scope of the Public Security Bureau. Luo Shiming's confession gave Zheng Zhongqiang some fatal clues that might cause Zhu Huadong to fall, but it also put a hot potato in his hands. He could either give this information to the Provincial Procuratorate or the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, or pretend to know nothing. Zheng Zhongqiang couldn't make up his mind. After thinking for a whole night, Zheng Zhongqiang decided to listen to Chen Xing's opinion and see what Chen Xing wanted him to do.
"Director Zheng, what do you think?" Chen Xing glanced at Zheng Zhongqiang and didn't answer.
"Mayor Chen, I just can't make up my mind, so I came to you. Besides, I think we should follow your instructions."
Hearing Zheng Zhongqiang's words, Chen Xing nodded secretly. Zheng Zhongqiang's attitude was undoubtedly very correct.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Xing said, "Director Zheng, I think we can keep this matter under wraps. As for Luo Shiming, we can continue to interrogate him and see if we can get more information."
"Mayor, if we keep this matter under wraps and hand in the clues in the future, if the higher-ups ask why we didn't report it in time, I'm afraid we won't be able to explain it." Zheng Zhongqiang frowned.
"If that's the case, you can say that you didn't report it in time to get more clues." Chen Xing said.
