Wu Pengfei slumped in his seat. Zheng Guangfu's sudden death in the car was too shocking.
Wu Pengfei didn't know how long he had been sitting in the car before he suddenly sat up straight. He looked at Zheng Guangfu, whose body had already turned cold. Wu Pengfei's face turned pale. He didn't send Zheng Guangfu away, but he died in his car. This had become a hot potato. Wu Pengfei's heart turned cold. How should he deal with Zheng Guangfu's body?
Wu Pengfei called Zhang Qingyang. His voice was still trembling. Chief Zhang, Chief Zheng is dead.
Who died? Zhang Qingyang had just returned to the police station. When he heard Wu Pengfei's words, his eyes widened. He had actually heard what Wu Pengfei said, but he didn't dare to believe it.
Chief Zheng was dead. He suddenly died in the car. Wu Pengfei repeated himself, but his mind was still blank.
How could he die? Wasn't he fine just now? Zhang Qingyang was shocked to the extreme. He couldn't help but raise his voice. Deputy Chief Huang Shenghui, who was still in the office next door, even heard Zhang Qingyang's roar.
I don't know either. On the highway, Chief Zheng suddenly said he wasn't feeling well. I told him to bear with it. Who knew that when I got off the highway and talked to him again, I found that he was dead. At this moment, Wu Pengfei was in an extremely bad mood. Zheng Guangfu had died in his car. Although Zhang Qingyang did not think that it had anything to do with him, he had to suffer in silence. Suddenly, he regretted joining in the fun. If he had pretended not to know anything from the beginning when the people from the ministry started to investigate the Crown Entertainment City, there would not have been so much trouble. However, such an idea was undoubtedly just an extravagant hope for self-comfort. His close relationship with Zheng Guangfu made it impossible for such an extravagant hope to happen. Everything that had happened seemed to have its own destiny.
Zhang Qingyang obviously couldn't accept this fact. He sat in his chair in a daze, holding his phone in silence.
Chief Zhang, what should we do now? What should we do with Chief Zheng's body? Wu Pengfei calmed down a little. The body was just beside him. The first problem in front of him was to deal with Zheng Guangfu's body.
I'm a little confused now. Let me calm down. Zhang Qingyang took a deep breath. Did Zheng Guangfu's death outweigh the disadvantages, or did the disadvantages outweigh the advantages? At this moment, Zhang Qingyang was shocked, but he was not sad at all. Usually, they called each other brothers and would eat and drink together every other day. But at this moment, Zhang Qingyang did not feel that there was anything to be sad about. He was only weighing the pros and cons for himself. How would Zheng Guangfu's death affect him? Would it be good or bad?
Only the sound of their breathing could be heard over the phone. Wu Pengfei turned to look at Zheng Guangfu again. At this time, he wanted to carefully examine Zheng Guangfu's body. He turned Zheng Guangfu's face and looked at it carefully. His brows furrowed tightly. Other than his sunken eye sockets, Zheng Guangfu's skin had turned black and there was an obvious blackish-purple color. This was a symptom of poisoning. This discovery undoubtedly shocked Wu Pengfei even more. He said into the phone. Chief … Chief Zhang, I've examined Chief Zheng's body. Chief Zheng was most likely poisoned to death.
Poisoned to death? Zhang Qingyang, who was still weighing the pros and cons, was interrupted by Wu Pengfei. He blurted out, "Who poisoned him?
Chief Zhang, how would I know? Wu Pengfei smiled bitterly.
Zhang Qingyang fell silent again. As soon as the words left his mouth, Zhang Qingyang knew that he had asked in vain. Wu Pengfei was only responsible for sending Zheng Guangfu away. Before that, Zheng Guangfu had been under the control of the people in the department. If he were to look back at the time, Zheng Guangfu would have had dinner with him that night. The two of them even drank a bottle of red wine. Therefore, during this period of time, Wu Pengfei and Zheng Guangfu didn't spend much time together. As for whether Wu Pengfei had secretly poisoned Zheng Guangfu, Zhang Qingyang didn't even think about it.
Chief Zhang, what should we do? Wu Pengfei was completely at a loss. If Zheng Guangfu had really been poisoned to death, then who was the real culprit? Now that Zheng Guangfu had died in his car, he couldn't explain himself. Zhang Qingyang wouldn't suspect him, but in the future, when this matter was investigated, he would obviously become the first suspect.
Pengfei, do you think we can push Zheng Guangfu's death to the people in the department? Zhang Qingyang's mind raced.
Chief Zhang, I'm afraid that's not a good idea. After all, Chief Zheng died in our hands. If we hand him over, we won't be able to wash our hands clean. Moreover, we don't know who did it. Wu Pengfei objected.
Ever since we confronted the people in the Crown Entertainment City, we couldn't wash our hands clean of Zheng Guangfu. Not to mention, we surrounded the hotel and took him back. In the eyes of outsiders, we were wearing the same pair of pants as Zheng Guangfu. Even if we arranged for Zheng Guangfu to escape at night, Chen Xing wasn't a fool. How could he not be suspicious? Zhang Qingyang shook his head. Previously, Zheng Guangfu had mentioned that the people in the ministry had a recording in their hands. That recording was enough to bring about a very negative impact on Zhang Qingyang. Zhang Qingyang knew that Chen Xing must have his concerns since they had not done anything to him yet.
Chief Zhang, after all, Chief Zheng died in our hands. If we hand him over at this juncture, we will be in the teeth of the storm. Out of consideration for himself, Wu Pengfei strongly disagreed.
Then what do you think? Zhang Qingyang asked Wu Pengfei. His mind was also in a mess. Tonight's series of events had happened too suddenly. Not to mention that he was not mentally prepared, even if he had received the news in advance, he would still be caught unprepared. Especially now that he suddenly heard of Zheng Guangfu's death, it was impossible for him to remain calm and not be affected at all.
Chief Zhang, I'm now by the side of the road, next to a bush. Should I find a place to dispose of the body? Wu Pengfei thought for a while. In fact, he didn't have any ideas. He just wanted to quickly move Zheng Guangfu's body away. As for who poisoned Zheng Guangfu, Wu Pengfei had no time to think about it.
Zhang Qingyang was stunned for a long time. Directly discarding Zheng Guangfu's body could only be said to be the worst idea, but he couldn't think of any other way. He could only nod and agree with Wu Pengfei's idea. Then do as you say, but be careful.
After the call, Wu Pengfei looked left and right. This place was close to the highway toll gate, and there were more cars coming and going. Wu Pengfei had no choice but to look ahead. At the fork in the road, Wu Pengfei turned into a small road. Going down a small slope was a forest. Wu Pengfei didn't say anything and drove the car down. He didn't dare to turn on the headlights and went straight into the forest.
In the silent night, there was no other sound except the chirping of birds and insects.
When the sun quietly crept over the horizon and slowly revealed a small head, it was already dawn. A brand new day had begun. One night had passed, and too many people hadn't slept at all.
At about nine o 'clock in the morning, the official document from the Ministry of Public Security was officially issued. The case of Crown Entertainment City was put on file for investigation by the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security. The investigation team led by Chang Shengjun officially took over the case.
At ten o 'clock, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Ge Jian-ming, suddenly called for a meeting of the Standing Committee. At the same time, he asked several people in charge of the Public Security Bureau to attend the meeting.
Chen Xing knew that Ge Jian-ming must have called for the meeting because of what happened in Crown Entertainment City last night. However, Ge Jian-ming didn't ask in private, but called for a meeting of the Standing Committee, which surprised Chen Xing.
The Standing Committee was held in the small conference room of the Municipal Party Committee. Zhang Qingyang, the secretary of the Party Committee of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, the executive deputy director, and Huang Shenghui, the deputy director, were present.
The meeting was presided over by Ge Jian-ming. During the meeting, Ge Jian-ming was open-minded, staring at Zhang Qingyang. Comrade Qingyang, what happened in Crown Entertainment City last night? When it happened, many people saw it, which caused a great impact. Hasn't your Municipal Bureau come up with a unified statement to explain it to the public?
Secretary Ge, what happened last night was a bit sudden. We didn't know that those people were from the Ministry until the document from the Ministry was issued just now. Because we didn't know what happened last night, there was some misunderstanding. Zhang Qingyang explained without blinking. As for why people from the army also appeared, it was strange.
You don't have to worry about the affairs of the army. I just want to ask you, what happened to Zheng Guangfu's case? A lot of drugs were found in Crown Entertainment City. It was said that drugs were sold openly to customers for a long time. What did the Public Security Bureau do before? Ge Jian-ming looked at Zhang Qingyang seriously, and his eyes drifted over from Chen Xing. He had already known the document issued by the Ministry and knew the truth of what happened last night. As for the people from the army, Ge Jian-ming had inquired about some information from Fu Youjun, the secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and guessed that it had something to do with Chen Xing. Therefore, Ge Jian-ming gave an understatement and only wanted to make an issue of some problems of Zhang Qingyang. This was his purpose today. As he spoke, Ge Jian-ming suddenly threw out another sentence that caught Zhang Qingyang unprepared. "I heard that you had dinner with Zheng Guangfu last night?
Because of a social engagement last night, I did have dinner with Zheng Guangfu, but I didn't know those things at that time. Moreover, I had dinner with him and it had nothing to do with work. " Zhang Qingyang's heart skipped a beat, and he tried to explain calmly.
Chen Xing, who was sitting aside, frowned slightly. "What is Ge Jian-ming trying to do today? Does he want to reap the fruits of his labor at this time? "The meeting room was silent.
Perhaps no one expected that Ge Jian-ming would suddenly question Zhang Qingyang. Liao Donghua, the secretary of the Municipal Committee of Politics and Law, glanced at Ge Jian-ming quietly and calculated in his heart. He didn't have a good impression of Zhang Qingyang, but he had to defend Zhang Qingyang in the face of pressure from Ge Jian-ming. However, Liao Donghua was not in a hurry to speak at this time. After all, Ge Jian-ming had just asked a question and hadn't revealed his real intention.
"Comrade Qingyang, are you sure that you have no special relationship with Zheng Guangfu?" Ge Jian-ming stared at Zhang Qingyang and looked at Huang Shenghui, who was beside Zhang Qingyang, from time to time.
"Secretary Ge, how can I have any special relationship with Zheng Guangfu? He invited me to dinner, and I had to go. Our relationship is that simple." Zhang Qingyang laughed dryly. Facing Ge Jian-ming's gaze, he felt extremely uneasy.
"Director Zhang, you seem to be eating with Zheng Guangfu almost every other day, right? Didn't you always instruct your subordinates not to ask about Zheng Guangfu's underlings or his business in the entertainment city? " Huang Shenghui, who was beside Zhang Qingyang, suddenly spoke without any warning. His words shocked everyone in the room.
As Huang Shenghui spoke, Zhang Qingyang felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was stunned on the spot and turned to look at Huang Shenghui in disbelief. Huang Shenghui, who had always followed his lead in the bureau, was actually hitting him when he was down at this time? Was this the Huang Shenghui who had always bowed to him and cheered for him? Zhang Qingyang wondered if he was hallucinating.
Not only Zhang Qingyang, but the others in the meeting room were also extremely shocked. One was the Executive Deputy Director, and the other was the Deputy Director. What was Huang Shenghui trying to do? Was he going to hit Zhang Qingyang when he was down on this occasion? At this time, Liao Donghua's expression was extremely solemn. He looked at Huang Shenghui's face and occasionally glanced at Ge Jian-ming. Liao Donghua was sharp enough to guess if this scene was related to Ge Jian-ming. It was unusual for Ge Jian-ming to suddenly convene this standing committee meeting today.
"Comrade Qingyang, do you have any objections to Comrade Shenghui's words?" Ge Jian-ming looked indifferent. Everything was under his control.
"Secretary Ge, I don't know if Comrade Shenghui has any grudges or personal grudges against me. Today, he slandered me out of selfishness. He is talking nonsense." Zhang Qingyang took a deep breath and stared at Huang Shenghui. It seemed that he wanted to see through Huang Shenghui. Before he came, he also felt it was strange that Huang Shenghui would attend today's standing committee meeting. But after all, the Municipal Party Committee notified both of them at the same time, so Zhang Qingyang didn't think too much about it. The most important thing was that Huang Shenghui had never behaved abnormally. In the bureau, he was extremely cooperative with him, the Deputy Director. Zhang Qingyang also regarded Huang Shenghui as "one of his own." Never would he have thought that Huang Shenghui would suddenly change sides at such an important standing committee meeting, which caught him off guard.
On the way to the Municipal Party Committee, Zhang Qingyang talked to Huang Shenghui about Zheng Guangfu. Zhang Qingyang didn't say that Zheng Guangfu was dead. He only said that the people from the ministry suddenly investigated Zheng Guangfu and issued an official document early this morning. It was obvious that the situation was fierce. This time, Nanzhou City wouldn't be peaceful. Huang Shenghui echoed his words and was also worried about whether Zheng Guangfu would be able to pass this time. Since the situation was the same as before, why would Zhang Qingyang have any doubts about Huang Shenghui?
"Secretary Ge, everything I said just now is the truth. I guarantee with my party spirit and character that if I say a single lie to attack Zhang Qingyang, the city can punish me. Even if I'm expelled from the party and public office, I won't have any complaints." When no one was paying attention, Huang Shenghui made a small exchange with Ge Jian-ming. Then, he directly threw down these harsh words. The meeting room was in an uproar again. Today's situation was the first time the people present had seen such a situation at the standing committee meeting.
"Huang Shenghui, you openly slandered your leader and colleagues. What kind of party spirit and character do you have? It's really ridiculous. Scum like you, why didn't I notice it before? I should have removed you from the public security team long ago. How could I let a scum like you occupy such a high position? " Zhang Qingyang was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He completely forgot what kind of situation he was in.
"Zhang Qingyang, if I'm the scum of the public security team, then you're the scum of the scum. Only you know how many heartless things you've done. You and Zheng Guangfu have long been in cahoots. Do you dare to say that you don't have any conscience? People like you don't have the right to criticize me. If I'm scum, then you're worse than scum. I've been in the public security team for as long as you. You don't have the right to remove me from the public security team. There are also the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government here. Who do you think you are? Do you think you have more power than Secretary Ge and Mayor Chen? Or have you always looked down on the leaders of the city and thought that you, Zhang Qingyang, were the most powerful in the world? Huang Shenghui did not want to be outdone. He started a war of words with Zhang Qingyang without any hesitation. The public security team had long been in a foul atmosphere because of you. You appointed people by nepotism and allowed your subordinates to fool around with gangsters like Zheng Guangfu. A scum like you doesn't deserve to wear this uniform. "
"You … you …" Zhang Qingyang pointed at Huang Shenghui. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was seething with anger. There was only one voice left in his heart. "Rebel, rebel. Even someone like Huang Shenghui, who used to be a yes-man behind me, dared to ride on my head and piss on me."
At this time, the two of them were performing a farce in the meeting room of the Municipal Party Committee. Surprisingly, no one stopped them. Everyone else was watching quietly. Ge Jian-ming, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, did not say a word.
Chen Xing's eyes moved back and forth between Zhang Qingyang and Huang Shenghui, and finally fell on Ge Jian-ming's face. He had a bad feeling in his heart. If he guessed correctly, Ge Jian-ming was the mastermind behind all this. Huang Shenghui was putting on a show, and Ge Jian-ming was the director. Ge Jian-ming's purpose was to take down Zhang Qingyang at this time, which was the same as Chen Xing's purpose. However, if Ge Jian-ming was the mastermind behind this result, it was undoubtedly the result that Chen Xing did not want to see. He had done so much just to control the public security system. Taking down Zhang Qingyang was only the first step. His ultimate goal was to transfer Lu Ming from the Provincial Department and push Lu Ming to the position of the top leader of the Public Security Bureau. If Ge Jian-ming picked the fruits of his labor at this time, it meant that all his efforts were in vain.
Zhang Qingyang, Huang Shenghui, what are you two doing? Don't you have any self-awareness? Do you know where you are? This is a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. What do you think the Standing Committee is? Is this a place for you to quarrel? Do you have any respect for your leaders? Go back and reflect on yourselves. Each of you will submit a self-examination report, and the report will be handed over to Secretary Ge. At this time, Liao Donghua spoke. He scolded Zhang Qingyang and Huang Shenghui angrily. In fact, he was angry, but secretly, he wanted to protect Zhang Qingyang. As the new secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, although he was a little disgusted with Zhang Qingyang's domineering subordinate, he had to protect Zhang Qingyang at this time.
Secretary Liao, I'm sorry. I lost my composure today. Zhang Qingyang was stunned for a moment. He glanced at Liao Donghua gratefully and then looked at Ge Jian-ming. Secretary Ge, I've let you and all the leaders here down. I'll go back and reflect on myself immediately. I'll definitely come up with a thorough self-examination report for you.
Don't be in a hurry to go back and reflect on yourself. The purpose of today's meeting is for you to clarify your problems. If you have any problems, you should clarify them clearly. Everyone here and I are willing to believe you. But since Comrade Shenghui has doubts about you, you have to come up with convincing evidence to counter his doubts. I think this is what everyone wants to see. Ge Jian-ming spoke again, and he immediately shattered Liao Donghua's intention. Everything today was led by him, and no one else was allowed to disrupt it.
Secretary Ge, Huang Shenghui is deliberately slandering and defaming me. I know that words are not convincing, but Huang Shenghui is indeed up to no good. The words he used to question me should be directed at himself. Huang Shenghui has always been close to Zheng Guangfu, and his relationship with Zheng Guangfu is not simple. He has eaten with Zheng Guangfu more than once, and the two of them even call each other brothers. This is something that many insiders in the Bureau can prove. Zhang Qingyang was quick-witted and counterattacked.
Chief Zhang, the insiders you mentioned are probably your people, right? Naturally, their words are biased towards you. Huang Shenghui looked at Zhang Qingyang mockingly. Just as Zhang Qingyang was about to retort, Huang Shenghui's mouth moved a beat faster, and he unexpectedly admitted. That's right, I admit that what you said is true, but the reason why I eat with Zheng Guangfu and hang out with a gangster like Zheng Guangfu is because I don't want to be attacked and ostracized by you in the Bureau. If I didn't purposely act as depraved and corrupt like you, you would have long thought of ways to suppress me. I have been enduring for the past few years because I wanted to stand out at the critical moment to expose you. As long as you, the scum of the Public Security Team, receive the punishment you deserve, I am willing to be punished as well.
Huang Shenghui, I don't think I have any personal grudges with you, so why do you have to slander me again and again? Zhang Qingyang flew into a rage, and he felt exasperated after being exposed.
The door of the meeting room was tightly shut, and the staff in charge of taking notes stopped writing. They didn't dare to record this farce into the minutes of the meeting. The Secretary General of the Municipal Party Committee, Jia Zhengde, had already hinted at this.
