There was a short period of depression in the office. Although he had been prepared for what Lu Ming was going to say, when Lu Ming said it, Chen Xing was still shocked.
"Lu Ming, this is just your guess. You have to be careful about what you say before you get any concrete evidence." Chen Xing took a look at Lu Ming, but his heart was not calm.
Lu Ming nodded solemnly. He just said his guess in front of Chen Xing. After leaving this office, he would pretend that he didn't say it. If his enemy heard that he casually doubted the secretary of the County Party Committee, he would be accused of political mistakes. After all, many people coveted his position as the director of the County Party Committee.
They were still silent for a few seconds. Chen Xing seemed to be still immersed in Lu Ming's suspicion just now as he frowned from time to time. Obviously, if Wang Dongchen was really the hidden backer of Jinyu Entertainment City, Wang Dongchen might not be able to get away with it. Chen Xing actually attached great importance to Lu Ming's guess. However, Chen Xing had to consider the fact that Wang Dongchen was the secretary of the County Party Committee. Without concrete evidence, Chen Xing dared not think about Wang Dongchen easily. What's more, he didn't have any substantial conflict of interest with Wang Dongchen in a short period of time.
County Chen, now that Lin Mao regards Jinyu Entertainment City as a target to vent his anger on, I think we can make a fuss about it. Jinyu Entertainment City is an untouchable tiger. Even I, the director of the Public Security Bureau, have to be afraid of it. Lin Mao is a fierce dragon. If we have a head-on collision with Jinyu Entertainment City, we may be able to kill two birds with one stone. We can not only indirectly deal with the arrogance of Baldy Li, but also possibly find out whether the backer of Jinyu Entertainment City is that person. " Lu Ming didn't directly mention Wang Dongchen's name this time, but both the speaker and the listener knew it.
"Baldy Li? It seems that you are really angry with him. " Chen Xing looked at Lu Ming with a smile.
I'm a bureau chief, and I can't even deal with a gangster like him. It's really shameful. Compared to my colleagues in other counties and cities, I'm a bit more useless. Lu Ming clenched his fists tightly. He had indeed lost face because of the Entertainment City incident. When he was the deputy director, he had organized a team to investigate the Entertainment City. The next day, he was criticized by the county head, Chang Yong. Although Chang Yong had been taken away by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection because he was involved in Xing Tiande's case, Lu Ming had replaced Han Dong as the director. Lu Ming still did not choose to investigate the Entertainment City with great fanfare. God knew how many officials in the county went in and out of the Entertainment City. Lu Ming knew that if he really took action, it would be like stepping on a landmine.
The net of law has long arms, but nothing escapes. If there were any dirty things in this entertainment center, sooner or later, it would have to be banned. Chen Xing smiled.
By the way, County Chen, there's one more thing I want to report to you. It's about the case of Zhang Ying's falling from the building. Lu Ming cleared his throat. "During our investigation, we found out that Wang Cai wasn't at home when Zhang Ying fell from the building. After the incident, he hurried home. Then, he left his house and pretended that he was at home when the incident happened.
Hearing Lu Ming say that there was progress in the case of Zhang Ying's falling from the building, Chen Xing's attention was immediately focused on it. He fixed his eyes on Lu Ming. Chen Xing was looking forward to Lu Ming's more convincing evidence.
Feeling Chen Xing's expectant eyes, Lu Ming shrugged his shoulders with a bitter smile. So far, they had only investigated this point. If they wanted to continue the investigation, they would have to summon Wang Cai to assist in the investigation. In that case, the pressure on the case would be even greater.
What can you do to Wang Cai with the evidence you have now? Chen Xing asked the key point directly.
We can't do anything to him. Chen Xing's question was direct, and Lu Ming's answer was also simple.
Chen Xing's breath paused for a moment. After a few seconds of silence, Chen Xing's eyebrows were still tightly knitted. Even if there was something suspicious, they couldn't do anything to Wang Cai. This meant that there was no substantial progress in the case.
Lu Ming stayed silent. Some words were unnecessary. He and Chen Xing both knew that if Wang Cai was an ordinary person, they would investigate him. In the end, if they could prove that Wang Cai had nothing to do with Zhang Ying's falling from the building, they would let him go. Who would dare to criticize the Public Security Bureau?
However, Wang Cai was the younger cousin of Wang Dongchen, the Secretary of the County Party Committee. As the General Manager of the Guesthouse of the County Party Committee, Wang Cai had a lot of connections. Of course, Wang Cai's connections and his trump card were Wang Dongchen's backing. If they wanted to investigate Wang Cai openly, they had to consider Wang Dongchen's reaction. They couldn't get around this. It was conceivable that even if Wang Dongchen showed a little interest in this case, the Public Security Bureau would be under enough pressure.
The two things you said today seem to be the same thing. Chen Xing glanced at Lu Ming.
Lu Ming was not stupid. He immediately understood what Chen Xing meant and nodded. Lu Ming acquiesced to Chen Xing's words and didn't know what to say for a while.
Whether it was the Jinyu Entertainment City mentioned before, Lu Ming suspected that the real backer of Jinyu Entertainment City was Wang Dongchen, or the case of Zhang Ying's falling from the building, the two things he came to report to Chen Xing today seemed to be unrelated, but there was an intersection between them. This intersection was also the root of the two things. Without the influence of Wang Dongchen, whether he wanted to search Jinyu Entertainment City or investigate Wang Cai, he wouldn't face the pressure from the higher-ups. With Chen Xing's approval, Lu Ming dared to do some things, but now he had to consider Wang Dongchen's reaction.
Although he had changed his position, he was still the same as before. He could still do what he could, and couldn't do what he couldn't. Lu Ming sighed with emotion. This was his personal experience, so he sighed with emotion at this moment. The meaning of this sentence was actually easy to understand. It was not easy for him to become a woman from the position of deputy director to the director. He thought that with more power in his hand, he could do things according to his will more easily. However, the final result was not like that. It was like playing a game. The characters in the game could be changed, but the rules of the game remained unchanged. No matter what the characters became, they had to abide by the rules. Whether he was the director or the deputy director, Lu Ming still couldn't avoid being restrained.
The Xi Men was still the same, so he naturally had to do things according to the original rules. Chen Xing smiled and pointed to the sky.
Lu Ming also nodded helplessly. He was the director in the eyes of the police officers below him, but from another perspective, he looked up to the leaders above him just like the police officers below him looked up to him. There was no essential difference. In this strict system, it was not a joke that a higher official could crush a lower official.
"Zhang Ying's case still needs to be investigated. This little girl died with her eyes open. I said I would give her justice, so I must give her justice. As the acting county magistrate, if I can't even keep my promise to a dead little girl, then I'm not qualified to take off the title of acting county magistrate." Chen Xing said calmly.
Hearing Chen Xing's words, Lu Ming couldn't help but look serious. Chen Xing was not joking at all. No one would joke with his official hat. Since Chen Xing said such words, it could be seen that he really attached importance to this matter. Lu Ming and Chen Xing had been through trials and tribulations together, so he knew Chen Xing quite well. When it was time to be ruthless and play tricks, Chen Xing would not be soft-hearted at all. The fact that he dared to ask someone to pretend to be a member of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection was enough to explain a lot. It was because he had seen Chen Xing's character that Lu Ming was more certain that Chen Xing definitely did not want to establish a good reputation for himself as a modern Justice Bao by focusing on the case of Zhang Ying's falling from the building. Any sane person would not go against the secretary of the County Party Committee for this dispensable reputation. Chen Xing was determined to get to the bottom of this case.
From this matter, Lu Ming saw Chen Xing's contradictory but not abrupt character. Chen Xing would play dirty tricks, but that was forced by the system. In the face of the vulnerable people, Chen Xing showed his fair and stubborn side. From this point of view, Chen Xing had not really transformed into a politician.
I will try my best to overcome the difficulties. Lu Ming promised Chen Xing.
"You should also pay attention to the Entertainment City. Lin Mao's personality isn't one to suffer losses. Even when he was in the provincial capital, he had never truly suffered a loss. This time, when he came to a small place like our Creek Sect, he actually suffered some physical pain. I reckon that he won't give up so easily. If we can let him continue to vent his anger on the Entertainment City, then perhaps we can really get some information out of him. Chen Xing said with a smile.
"What County Chen said is right. Maybe I will really hit the jackpot by accident." Lu Ming grinned. He also wanted to see whether Wang Dongchen was the backer of the Entertainment City.
