After listening for a while, Chen Xing finally found out her identity. She was Wu Gang's wife, Xiang Yunping. Chen Xing didn't doubt her identity. No one would pretend to be Wu Gang's wife to amuse himself. According to her, Wu Gang was taken away by the people from the Municipal Procuratorate. Xiang Yunping wasn't sure about this, but she heard from the people in the county. She hadn't seen Wu Gang for several days and didn't know where to find him. It was useless to ask others to find her connections. In the end, she accidentally remembered that Wu Gang once said that he had a friend. Fortunately, Wu Gang had a private spare phone at home, which happened to have Chen Xing's number. Xiang Yunping then thought of calling Chen Xing.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Brother Wu is at least a deputy county magistrate. Even if he was taken away by the people from the Procuratorate, he will be fine for a while. Don't worry too much. I believe things are not that bad." Chen Xing comforted her on the phone.
"County Chen, I also comforted myself like this. But I haven't heard from Wu Gang for three or four days. I really can't stop worrying. He is the pillar of the family. Now that something happened to him, I don't know what to do. If I hadn't accidentally thought that he had a friend like you, I would have collapsed now. County Chen, you must help Wu Gang." Xiang Yunping begged on the other end of the phone. Everyone could hear the exhaustion in her voice.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Wu Gang and I are good friends. No matter what happens to him, I will try my best to help him. Don't think too much. Have a good rest. Don't collapse before Wu Gang comes out. Think more about your child." Chen Xing said and looked at the time. It was only seven o 'clock. He hadn't been back to the county for two days. He had to go back. After thinking for a while, Chen Xing said, "Sister-in-law, how about this? I will go there in the afternoon. Wait for my news. I have to go to the county during the day."
"Good, good, County Chen, it's good that you are willing to come. Do what you need to do first." Xiang Yunping's voice was full of joy as if she had grasped the last life-saving straw.
After breakfast, Chen Xing returned to the county. Currently, he was in charge of all the work of the county committee and the county government. It would be a lie if Chen Xing said that he was not busy. However, there was another advantage to being a leader. He only needed to focus on the general direction and the specific work could be delegated to his subordinates. As a leader, there would never be a shortage of subordinates to run errands for him. Of course, some things had to be handled personally. Otherwise, it would be too easy for him to be deceived and deceived by his subordinates.
Although Chen Xing was also in charge of the work of the county committee, he still stayed in the office of the county government. There was no news about the appointment of the secretary of the county committee. Although everyone thought that Chen Xing had no competitors, it was impossible for Chen Xing to move to the county committee before the appointment was made, in case he became a joke.
As soon as Chen Xing returned to his office, there were a lot of things to do. People came to report to him one after another, hoping to show their faces in front of him, hoping to leave a good impression on him, the future number one person in Ximen County. It could be considered as paying respects to him in advance. At the very least, they couldn't let Chen Xing's attitude be improper. Everyone was afraid that Chen Xing, now that he was in power, would deal with those officials who didn't listen to him, especially those from the Wang faction, who were now even more anxious.
As for the previous dispute between Wang and Chen, it became a joke after Wang Dongchen was taken away by the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. Now, no one would mention Secretary Wang anymore. They were talking about when Chen Xing would be officially appointed as the secretary of the county committee of Ximen County. If Wang Dongchen was mentioned, they were talking about how much money this secretary, who had been in charge of Ximen County for many years, had embezzled, whether he would become the most corrupt person in Hai City, and how many years he would be sentenced to in the end. Obviously, Wang Dongchen had stepped down from his pedestal and was no longer respected by people.
Chen Xing dealt with things very quickly today. He did not need to personally deal with small matters, and he handed over the important matters to his subordinates after giving serious instructions, so it did not take too much time. During this period, Lu Ming came to report about Chen Jun. This trusted secretary of Wang Dongchen was still absconding. Those people who had been cheated by him before he left were now waiting for the Public Security Bureau to solve the case and recover the losses. Before Chen Jun escaped, he had abducted nearly 2 million yuan in one night. In addition, when he was Wang Dongchen's secretary, he might have also gained a lot of benefits. No one knew how much money he, the secretary of a secretary, had finally made.
Wang Dongchen had already been punished by the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. Chen Jun was really nothing in Chen Xing's eyes. However, with the idea of not letting go of any cadres who violated the law or discipline, Chen Xing also seriously instructed the Public Security Bureau to step up efforts to solve the case. He also contacted the Public Security Bureau in other areas, striving to arrest Chen Jun as soon as possible and do his best to recover the losses of the victims.
After staying in the office until almost five o 'clock in the afternoon, Chen Xing left the office, called the driver Zhang Min, and took the car straight to Jiangcheng City. Wu Gang was the deputy head of Kaiyuan County, Jiangcheng City. To go to Kaiyuan County, he had to go to Jiangcheng City first. It just so happened that Chen Xing also wanted to meet Zhang Ningning. It was not seven o' clock when they arrived in Jiangcheng City. Because they had to go to Kaiyuan County, Chen Xing asked Zhang Ningning out, but they didn't go to the hotel for dinner. They ate their stomachs in a specialty noodle restaurant. When Zhang Ningning heard that Chen Xing was going to Kaiyuan County, she smiled and said that she also wanted to go and have a look. Anyway, she had nothing to do.
Chen Xing naturally had no objection to this. He just wanted to go to Kaiyuan County to find out what happened to Wu Gang. It was not dangerous, so it was not a big deal to ask Zhang Ningning to go with him. After thinking for a while, Chen Xing called Zeng Jing. The three of them met at the Party School and became friends. It was reasonable to tell Zeng Jing about Wu Gang. Zeng Jing, the deputy director of the sub-bureau, was also a busy man. However, after hearing that Wu Gang had an accident, Zeng Jing said without thinking that he would go with Chen Xing to have a look.
Zeng Jing drove a police car from the sub-bureau. The three of them went to Kaiyuan County together in two cars. Kaiyuan County was the same situation as Ximen County in Hai City. They were both economically backward places. It was also relatively far from the downtown area of Jiang City. The distance by car was almost the same as the distance from Hai City to Jiang City. When they arrived at Kaiyuan County, it was already past nine o 'clock in the evening.
Chen Xing called Wu Gang's wife, Xiang Yunping. When Xiang Yunping received the call from Chen Xing, she felt as if she had just been rescued from the water. She let out a long sigh of relief. She had been waiting for Chen Xing's call for a whole day. Last night, she called Chen Xing five times in a row, but no one answered. Xiang Yunping thought that Chen Xing had heard about her husband's accident and did not want to meddle in other people's business. She had already given up. Who would have thought that Chen Xing would take the initiative to call her again in the morning and promised to come and have a look today? This undoubtedly injected a little hope into Xiang Yunping's already desperate heart.
Although Chen Xing said that he would only come in the evening, Xiang Yunping had been looking forward to receiving Chen Xing's call since the morning. Until now, Xiang Yunping had almost given up. She thought that Chen Xing's words in the morning were perfunctory. Who would have thought that at this time, she would receive a call from Chen Xing saying that he had arrived at Kaiyuan County. Zeng Yun almost could not control her feelings and burst into tears.
"Sister-in-law, we are on the provincial highway 591 between Jiang City and Kaiyuan County. It is just at this intersection to enter Kaiyuan County. Shall we go directly to Kaiyuan City or do you want to come out?" Chen Xing asked Xiang Yunping.
"I'll go out. I'll go out to pick you up." Xiang Yunping's voice was very excited, with a faint sobbing tone.
"That's good. We are not in a hurry. Sister-in-law, take your time and be careful on the way." Chen Xing could feel that Xiang Yunping's mood seemed to be very unstable, so he could not help but remind her on the phone. Although they had not met, she was Wu Gang's wife after all. He and Wu Gang laughed and joked around like brothers in the Party School. Later, they had kept in touch. The friendship between them was still very good. The key was that Wu Gang was a good person, so Chen Xing thought that he was a worthy friend.
Xiang Yunping came here by motorcycle with a little boy, who seemed to be more than 10 years old. Chen Xing had long heard from Wu Gang that his son was in the fourth grade of primary school. Perhaps because of the wind on the motorcycle, the child's face was red. He clutched his mother's sleeves tightly and looked at Chen Xing and the others with vigilance.
"Little Zong, these brothers and sisters are not bad people. They are here to help your father." It was also the first time for Xiang Yunping to meet Chen Xing. After confirming Chen Xing's identity through a face-to-face phone call, Xiang Yunping was a little surprised for a moment. Usually, Wu Gang would laugh and say that the brother he met in the Party School had become a county magistrate at such a young age. Xiang Yunping had not paid much attention to it. Now that she saw Chen Xing with her own eyes, Xiang Yunping was really shocked in her heart.
"This must be Brother Wu's child. He looks so handsome." Chen Xing smiled at the child. Kaiyuan County was near the mountains, so the mountain wind at night was still not small. Looking at the child's young face in the wind, Chen Xing said to Xiang Yunping, "Sister-in-law, you and the child get in the car first. We will talk on the way."
"Okay." Xiang Yunping nodded and looked back instinctively. This small movement was seen by Chen Xing. Chen Xing could not help but frown.
"Sister-in-law, are you worried that someone is following you?" Asked Chen Xing. If even Xiang Yunping was followed when she came out, it could be seen that Wu Gang's matter was really not small this time.
"No, maybe I have been too paranoid recently. I always feel that someone wants to harm us." Xiang Yunping smiled bitterly.
"Hehe, that should not be the case. According to what you said, Wu Gang was just taken away by the people of the procuratorate. There is no personal hatred. No one will harm you. Sister-in-law, don't think too much." Chen Xing comforted her.
