Xiang Yunping still had Dai Zhicheng's phone number. Hearing that Chen Xing wanted it, Xiang Yunping quickly took out her mobile phone and told Chen Xing the number. Chen Xing called Dai Zhicheng, while Wang Erfa, who was on the other side of the phone, was surprised. He heard Chen Xing's words, which made him hesitate to take action. Wang Erfa did not doubt that Xiang Yunping had Dai Zhicheng's phone number. Chen Xing dialed the number. Dai Zhicheng couldn't help wondering what was the relationship between Chen Xing and Dai Zhicheng, the county magistrate.
The young man saw Dai Zhicheng's hesitation, and he also heard Chen Xing's words. The young man quietly winked at his gangsters, telling them not to act rashly. Although they could get a lot of benefits by helping Wang Erfa, it would not be worth it if they lost their lives. They were gangsters, and they knew one or two policemen. In fact, their contact information was recorded by the police. Sometimes the police had to rely on their power to do things. The power of street gangsters was often not to be ignored. As long as they did not cause too much trouble, generally speaking, the police would turn a blind eye to them. This was actually a common phenomenon. However, if a leader wanted to deal with them, it would be a piece of cake. The policemen that they knew would not be of much use. Therefore, the young man was still very sensible.
Chen Xing called Dai Zhicheng. When Dai Zhicheng heard that Chen Xing was in trouble in the community not far from him, he immediately said that he would call the Public Security Bureau, but he did not say that he would come in person. However, Dai Zhicheng's action surprised Chen Xing. Dai Zhicheng just hung up the phone for four or five minutes, and Dai Zhicheng came over. This place was not far from where Dai Zhicheng lived. Dai Zhicheng came so quickly after hanging up the phone without any delay. Chen Xing was slightly surprised, and he had to admire Dai Zhicheng's good behavior.
County Magistrate Chen, what happened? As soon as Dai Zhicheng came over, he saw Wang Erfa. He frowned and looked at him directly. He knew Wang Erfa, but he did not want to greet him. The project of the city square was contracted by Wang Erfa. Dai Zhicheng knew something was wrong, but he had no evidence.
Well, this Wang gathered a crowd to stop our car and said that he would teach us a lesson. Dai County, this is in the urban area. The public security situation in Kaiyuan County does not seem very good. Chen Xing glanced at Dai Zhicheng with a smile. Although he said it half-jokingly, he did not give Dai Zhicheng any face. After all, Dai Zhicheng was the county head of Kaiyuan County. Chen Xing's words would embarrass Dai Zhicheng. However, Chen Xing dared to say so because he was confident.
The public security situation in Kaiyuan County should be improved. Dai Zhicheng thought for a while and nodded. He looked at Wang Erfa, as if there was a hidden meaning in his words. As for Chen Xing, he was very direct with his words. Dai Zhicheng did not mind. He rushed over with the intention of befriending Chen Xing. Otherwise, after calling the Public Security Bureau, he would have fulfilled his obligation to help. There was no need for him to come over himself. The key was that Zhou Mingfang, who was behind Chen Xing, made Dai Zhicheng feel that Chen Xing was worth befriending. The Organization Department controlled official hats. Dai Zhicheng was a little old, but it did not mean that he did not have the intention to improve.
Dai Zhicheng, I did not expect these people to be your friends. It was a misunderstanding. Hehe, I will let go of what happened tonight. Wang Erfa smiled brightly at Dai Zhicheng. When Dai Zhicheng arrived, he knew that he had wasted his time tonight. He was slapped and kicked by Zeng Jing for nothing. At the very least, he would not be able to get back at him.
President Wang, why do I see you everywhere? It seems that wherever something bad happens, you will be there. Dai Zhicheng stared at Wang Erfa. His expression was calm, but the surging gaze in the depths of his eyes revealed the restlessness in his heart.
Dai Zhicheng really wanted to teach Wang Erfa a lesson, but he did not have the strength to do so. Although Wang Erfa looked submissive in front of him and did not want to offend him, that was just the attitude that Wang Erfa put on. Wang Erfa did not dare to offend him openly, but it was not that easy for him to teach Wang Erfa a lesson. Wu Gang's inspection of the quality of the construction of the city square had implicated him, but he could not do anything about it. It was clear how helpless Dai Zhicheng was.
"County Dai, you must be joking. What happened tonight was just a coincidence. Your friends did not suffer any losses. In fact, I am the one who suffered. You can see that my face is still swollen. I have to go to the hospital later to see if I have a concussion." Wang Erfa said with a smile. His gaze swept over Chen Xing and the others. Wang Erfa withdrew his gaze quietly and bowed to Dai Zhicheng. Wang Erfa was ready to leave. "I will not disturb County Dai and your friends. I will go to the hospital first."
Dai Zhicheng did not stop Wang Erfa from leaving. Even if he made him stay, what could he do? Seeing that one side of Wang Erfa's face was red, Dai Zhicheng guessed that Wang Erfa had really suffered a loss just now. That was why he had found someone to steal Chen Xing's car. He just did not know how Chen Xing had become enemies with Wang Erfa.
Wang Erfa was a builder in the county. County Chen had just arrived in Kaiyuan. How did he have a conflict with Wang Erfa? Dai Zhicheng's eyes were full of doubts as he asked.
That Wang Erfa had a foul mouth. Some of the ladies on our side did not listen to him, so they taught him a lesson. Chen Xing smiled and briefly explained the matter to Dai Zhicheng. When Dai Zhicheng heard that it had something to do with Wu Gang's matter, he was slightly taken aback. Dai Zhicheng's eyes flickered as he looked at Chen Xing. No one knew what he was thinking.
After the people from the Public Security Bureau arrived, they went back. The person who led the team was the Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau, Jiang Guangmin. Dai Zhicheng had called him. He did not want to come by himself. Later, he thought that he had nothing to do, so he came by himself. He did not expect to see Dai Zhicheng coming in person. Jiang Guangmin felt lucky. When he saw Zeng Jing, Jiang Guangmin was stunned. He looked at Dai Zhicheng and then at Zeng Jing. It was really strange that the two of them appeared together. Jiang Guangmin did not forget to greet Zeng Jing. Chief Zeng, why are you here?
I have something to do. Zeng Jing smiled faintly. They were just acquaintances who nodded at each other.
Jiang Guangmin got to know Zeng Jing because he went to a meeting at the Municipal Bureau. Zeng Jing was a famous beauty in the Municipal Bureau and the captain of the criminal police team. She was well-known in the public security system of Jiangcheng City. Anyone would take a second look at such a beautiful captain of the criminal police team. It was not surprising that Jiang Guangmin knew her, but he was not familiar with her.
When Jiang Guangmin greeted Zeng Jing, Dai Zhicheng, who was next to him, was also stunned. He had ignored Zeng Jing and Zhang Ningning. He thought that it was Chen Xing, the young county magistrate, who did not forget to be dissolute and brought two beauties with him. Only now did he know that Zeng Jing was also from the public security system. Hearing Jiang Guangmin call him Chief Zeng, it seemed that Zeng Jing's status was not low. Dai Zhicheng also paid more attention to Zeng Jing.
Chen Xing did not ask much about Wang Erfa's situation. Chen Xing saw that Dai Zhicheng let Wang Erfa leave just now. Wang Erfa was just a construction businessman, but he was not very afraid of Dai Zhicheng, the county magistrate. He was respectful on the surface, but people with discerning eyes could see that Dai Zhicheng might not be able to control him. Chen Xing had a lot of doubts in his heart. He was afraid that the whirlpool Wu Gang was involved in was not small.
After confirming that Chen Xing and the others were fine, Dai Zhicheng was about to leave. He did not ask Chen Xing and the others whether they were going to find Wu Gang immediately. It was better for him to keep silent about this matter. Otherwise, if he asked casually, Chen Xing and the others might conveniently invite him to go with them. Then, he would shoot himself in the foot. Dai Zhicheng did not mention Wu Gang, but he did not forget to express his enthusiasm to Chen Xing. If there was any problem, he would remember to contact him. If he could help, he would definitely try his best to help.
Wang Erfa's matter was put to the back of their minds. Xiang Yunping pointed the way, and Chen Xing and the rest drove to a military camp. They were stopped at the gate by the soldiers at the gate. Not everyone could enter and leave the military zone as they pleased. Those who did not have a registered military license plate had to go through an inspection before they could enter or leave. Moreover, Chen Xing and the rest were only driving a local license plate, so it was normal for them to be stopped. Fortunately, the attitude of the soldiers at the gate was not that bad. They asked Chen Xing and the rest if they were looking for someone or something else. If they were looking for a leader in the army, they could naturally enter after registering.
Xiang Yunping could not control her emotions. She could not wait to say that she was looking for Wu Gang. She was brought here and wanted to see him. Hearing Xiang Yunping's words, Chen Xing secretly thought that it was bad. Wasn't it obvious that they were being refused at the gate? Chen Xing's guess was right. The soldier at the gate shook his head and said that there was no Wu Gang. Xiang Yunping insisted that there was and begged the soldier at the gate to help her ask. The soldier was quite enthusiastic. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded and agreed.
She called him and got a negative answer. There was no Wu Gang inside. Xiang Yunping almost went crazy. It was not easy for her to find out the whereabouts of her husband, but when she came here, she was told that there was no one there. Xiang Yunping firmly believed that Wu Gang was inside. She argued with the soldier at the gate. The soldier at the gate was a little unhappy and his attitude became cold.
"Sister-in-law, don't make trouble here. The soldier at the gate is only a low-level figure. He may not know about Brother Wu. It is useless for you to make trouble with him." Chen Xing pulled Xiang Yunping back and glanced at Zhang Ningning.
"I was too excited. I was too anxious to see Wu Gang. At least I know if he is fine and if he has suffered." Xiang Yunping's tears were about to fall as she spoke. Chen Xing felt a headache coming on when he saw this, but he couldn't say anything. Women's psychological endurance was low to begin with, and it was normal for them to shed tears when they were sad. Xiang Yunping was considered to be in a good state. At the very least, Chen Xing saw that she was able to control her tears a few times.
"Who is making a noise here? Don't you know that this is a military place? Get everyone out of here." While Chen Xing and Xiang Yunping were talking, an officer walked out from inside. He was a major with a twenty-one cent pendant on his shoulder. After casting a cold glance at them, the major shouted at the guards at the gate.
"Comrade, I'm sorry. We didn't mean to make trouble here." Chen Xing pondered for a while. Now he could only make a desperate attempt. He walked up with a smile and took out his work card. "This is my certificate. We want to see the chief of your army. I wonder if you can make an exception."
The major took over Chen Xing's work card. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. His expression softened and his attitude toward Chen Xing became much more polite. After all, he was a county magistrate. The major's eyes flickered and he said, "I wonder why County Magistrate Chen is looking for our chief. He has gone out to handle some affairs. If County Magistrate Chen has anything to say, you can tell me first."
"Really? What a coincidence." Chen Xing smiled. The major's expression was a little unnatural, but he nodded affirmatively. Chen Xing frowned slightly and said, "We want to see Deputy County Magistrate Wu Gang. I wonder if you can help us ask?"
"Wu Gang is not here. You are looking for the wrong person. County Magistrate Chen, I'm sorry. I have something to do. Excuse me. If you don't have anything else, please leave. This is a military place and it's not suitable to make noise." The major glanced at Chen Xing, turned around and left in a hurry.
Chen Xing stared at the major's back. The change of the major's expression didn't escape his eyes. Chen Xing was more and more sure that Wu Gang was inside. The major obviously knew about this. The major's duplicitous reaction had exposed his guilty conscience, which also showed that the information provided by Dai Zhicheng was correct.
"County Magistrate Chen, Wu Gang must be inside. He is lying." Xiang Yunping also saw the major's reaction. She was afraid that she would believe the major's words, so she said hurriedly.
"I know, but it's useless for us to argue with him. It's not a good idea to make a scene here. This is their territory, and it's a military administrative area. We will definitely be at a disadvantage if we force our way in here." Chen Xing said. He glanced at Zhang Ningning again.
Before coming here, Chen Xing had more or less expected this result. "Call Dai Zhicheng?" Chen Xing rejected this idea. Chen Xing didn't think that Dai Zhicheng could be of any help. Otherwise, Dai Zhicheng would have proposed to come with them instead of keeping silent. However, Chen Xing thought so, but Xiang Yunping didn't think so. She proposed to call Dai Zhicheng again.
"Then call him." Chen Xing nodded. "It's good to let Xiang Yunping have a try."
As expected, Xiang Yunping got a negative answer from Dai Zhicheng. Dai Zhicheng didn't forget to ask Xiang Yunping to give the phone to Chen Xing. He explained to Chen Xing in person, "County Magistrate Chen, my face doesn't work in front of the chief of the garrison. Otherwise, I would have helped you. I believe that you have seen the clues just now. Wu Gang is inside, but they don't allow people to go in. I'm afraid that I can't help you in this matter."
"It's okay. It's okay. County Magistrate Dai telling us where Wu Gang is is the biggest help to us." County Magistrate Chen smiled. "Let's leave it at that. We will think of other ways. We won't disturb County Magistrate Dai's rest."
Chen Xing hung up the phone. He didn't have a good or bad impression of Dai Zhicheng. He always felt that Dai Zhicheng was hiding something, which also made Chen Xing more or less vigilant. However, even if Dai Zhicheng was hiding something, it was understandable. It was already very kind of him to tell them some information. There was no reason for him to tell them everything after just one meeting with them.
Now, they could only rely on Zhang Ningning. Chen Xing felt helpless. As the county magistrate, he was really nothing outside Xi Men. Especially before he came here, he didn't expect that this matter would involve the garrison. Things suddenly became more complicated. Now, if he wanted to go in, he had to find someone he knew in the military. Chen Xing didn't know any leaders with real power in the military. He was also unfamiliar with Kaiyuan County. It was not easy to find someone he knew. Zeng Jing was useful in the public security system, but he couldn't help much in this matter. As soon as Chen Xing got out of the car, he fixed his eyes on Zhang Ningning.
Zhang Ningning's EQ and IQ were very high. Before Chen Xing said anything, Zhang Ningning smiled and said, "I should be able to help a little in this matter. Let's try to make a phone call first."
This was what made Zhang Ningning different. She did not have any arrogance of the red children. The old man of the Zhang family was an older revolutionary who came out of the army. There were many students and old friends in the army. Those generals with two or three gold stars on their shoulders in the army had to respectfully call him "old chief" when they saw him. The Zhang family was one of the few red families that could have influence in both the military and the government. It was very easy for the Zhang family to solve this kind of thing. However, Zhang Ningning still said it modestly.
Zhang Ningning did not call her father this time. Although she was not in politics and seemed to be indifferent to political affairs, it did not mean that Zhang Ningning did not understand. Zhang Guohua was the governor, so it was obviously not appropriate for him to intervene in the military affairs. Moreover, this was still on the ground of Jianghai Province. Jiang Min, the secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, was also the first secretary of the Party Committee of the Provincial Military Region. Jiang Min could appropriately ask about the internal affairs of the military region, but he could not interfere too much. The military was not a place that local cadres could touch, which was a big taboo. It was not that Zhang Guohua could not ask for the help of the Zhang family to ask about the military affairs. In fact, he was more influential than Jiang Min because of the Zhang family's reputation. However, Zhang Ningning also had his reasons for not calling her father. There was no need to ask her father for this kind of thing. It was more appropriate to call his second uncle who did not mix in the system.
Zhang Guozhong, the disrespectful elder, always liked to tease his little niece with a few words. He did not have the demeanor of an elder at all. Until his little niece was about to be annoyed, Zhang Guozhong laughed and said, "Ningning, why are you looking for me? It's rare for me to call your second uncle to greet him. I guess it's not a good thing for you to call me this time.
Second uncle, I've encountered something here. Do you know anyone from the Jianghai Province Military Region? I'm outside a military station in Kaiyuan County, Jiangcheng City. I want to go in to find someone, but I'm blocked at the door. Zhang Ningning had already noticed the number of this garrison just now, and she directly reported it to her second uncle, Zhang Guozhong.
How dare you shut the door in front of our Zhang family's little princess. Second uncle will help you vent your anger. I'll definitely bring the leader of the garrison here to serve him with a stick. Zhang Guozhong joked carelessly. In fact, when he heard that the unit number Zhang Ningning reported was only the station of a certain battalion, he knew what was going on in his heart. No matter how big a battalion's officer was, he was just a battalion commander. This really could not enter Zhang Guozhong's eyes. The people he came into contact with were all generals with gold stars on their shoulders. The battalion commander of a battalion was at most a colonel, and most of them only had the rank of lieutenant colonel. After listening to Zhang Ningning's words, Zhang Guozhong also knew that it was not a big deal, so he was in the mood to joke with Zhang Ningning. Anyway, it was not a big deal.
Just when Zhang Ningning asked her playful second uncle for help, in a three-story milky white office building in the camp, the major officer who just came out was in one of the offices, talking to a middle-aged officer with 22 cents on his shoulder about what he had just seen outside. The person who came to find Wu Gang was the county magistrate of Ximen County. The certificate could not be faked, but it was a bit strange. The county magistrate of Ximen County came to Kaiyuan County, which made people feel strange.
The county magistrate was young enough, but they didn't know what relationship he had with Wu Gang. The major frowned and looked at the middle-aged officer. He wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. In the end, he chose to shut his mouth sensibly and didn't dare to raise any opinions.
Without a doubt, the middle-aged officer with 22 cents on his shoulder was the highest officer in the camp. The middle-aged officer was called Xu Dewei, a lieutenant colonel, and was the battalion commander of a camp stationed in Kaiyuan County. Just now, Men Gang had called the office to ask if there was a person named Wu Gang. The person who answered the phone was the major, who was Xu Dewei's deputy. He happened to know about Wu Gang's matter, so the phone call from Men Gang attracted his attention. He didn't approve of Wu Gang's matter. Now, hearing that someone had come to find them, the major pondered for a while and came out in person to see what was going on. He also reported this matter to Xu Dewei. Therefore, Xu Dewei came to the office at this moment. Next to the office building was the dormitory building, which was only a few steps away.
"I don't know what Zhu Mingxuan is up to. He brought these people to our camp for interrogation and said that he only wants to borrow them for a few days. He hasn't said that he's going to leave yet. What the hell is going on?" Xu Dewei smacked his lips. The Zhu Mingxuan he mentioned was the Kaiyuan County Party Secretary. Zhu Mingxuan told him that he wanted to borrow the army's place to handle this matter. Xu Dewei didn't quite agree at first, but he couldn't refuse Zhu Mingxuan's request. Zhu Mingxuan was also 35 or 36 years old this year, about the same age as him.
The two of them often ate and drank together. It was necessary for the garrison to have a good relationship with the local government. Many hardware facilities needed the financial support of the local government, and it was not enough to rely on the military's funds. Therefore, it was normal for Xu Dewei to have a good relationship with Zhu Mingxuan. In addition, the two of them were about the same age, so they could talk together, so they had a good relationship. However, Xu Dewei didn't feel that Zhu Mingxuan was very reliable. Therefore, although they had a good relationship, Xu Dewei didn't have the intention to have a deep relationship with him. It was only because of some needs of the army that he maintained a superficial relationship with Zhu Mingxuan. This time, Zhu Mingxuan asked, and Xu Dewei couldn't refuse, so he agreed.
At first, Zhu Mingxuan didn't say why he wanted to borrow the garrison's place. After Xu Dewei found out what it was, he thought that it was the people from the Municipal Procuratorate who were handling a case, so it was not a big deal to borrow the place. Maybe they wanted to keep it a secret, so they asked to borrow a place in the garrison. In this day and age, where could be safer than the military base? After knowing why Zhu Mingxuan wanted to borrow the place, Xu Dewei was relieved. He also agreed to Zhu Mingxuan's request to refuse all visitors. That was why Dai Zhicheng said that his face was not useful in the garrison, because Xu Dewei only respected Zhu Mingxuan.
Xu Dewei usually didn't care much about the local government's affairs. It was not something he should worry about. He only cared about his troops and didn't care about the local affairs. Therefore, Xu Dewei didn't know why Wu Gang was being investigated at the beginning. As for what was strange about it, Xu Dewei didn't know. He just gave three rooms to the people from the Municipal Procuratorate and didn't ask much about other things. Yesterday, when the major next to him heard something and came back to tell him, Xu Dewei realized that this was not a simple matter. He regretted lending the place to Zhu Mingxuan, but it was not good to drive him out now, so Xu Dewei also had a headache. Just now, when he heard the major said that someone was going to look for Wu Gang, Xu Dewei paid attention to it.
Battalion Commander, I'm sorry, but our troops shouldn't get involved in local affairs. Besides, Secretary Zhu wanted to borrow our place to handle a case, but he didn't tell the leaders in the army. If we lend the place to them privately, if something happens in the future, I'm afraid the leaders will criticize our troops. The major said.
I don't have the leisure to get involved in local affairs. It's not good to reject Zhu Mingxuan's face. Xu Dewei shook his head helplessly. Zhu Mingxuan's reputation is not good. This time, don't drag me down. Yuezheng, go and have a look later. Ask the person in charge of the Procuratorate when they will leave. Just say that our troops don't have enough rooms.
Okay, I'll go and have a look later. By the way, should I ask that County Magistrate Chen to come in? The major's name was Zhang Yuezheng. He was less than 30 years old. To be able to become a major at this age, it was obvious that his family had some connections.
Forget it, let's not do it first. The more we get involved, the worse it will be. Let's quickly drive those people from the Procuratorate away. They can interrogate people anywhere, but they have to borrow our troops' place. Xu Dewei curled his lips. He was in a very bad mood at this time.
