"Xiaojing, since Assistant Tan didn't do anything illegal, the police can't do anything to her. Don't worry. If the police really do something, the mayor is here. It's not convenient for us to complain." Huang Ming comforted Lu Xiaojing. Although he didn't know what the policeman had just said to Chen Xing, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Chen Xing supported their actions. Huang Ming didn't want to make trouble for Chen Xing with Lu Xiaojing.
The Public Security Bureau was shady. If they went inside, who knew if they would do anything. Lu Xiaojing whispered. Her voice was not loud, but it was enough for Chen Xing to hear. It was not that she didn't believe in Chen Xing, but that she couldn't trust the public power departments. Now the government departments had no credibility. Lu Xiaojing didn't say anything else. She had gone to the Public Security Bureau many times for her father's disability because of an unknown person's attack. She had made excuses every time and had never really handled the case.
"Mr. Lu, don't worry. They won't do anything. If they dare to do anything, I'll deal with them." Chen Xing said half-jokingly. He still believed in these people from the department.
"Mayor Chen, this is what you said. If Sister Tan is wronged, I will complain to you." Lu Xiaojing said.
"Mr. Lu, you worry too much. Assistant Tan may come back in the afternoon. How long do you want her to stay in there?" Chen Xing shook his head with a smile. According to the people from the department, they were just going to take her back for questioning. Tan Fang shouldn't have anything to do with Zheng Guangfu's death. After making a statement, she could come back.
"Really?" Lu Xiaojing looked at Chen Xing in surprise. Thinking of what the policeman had whispered to Chen Xing just now, Lu Xiaojing also walked a little closer. "Mayor Chen, why did the police take Sister Tan away?"
"It's because of Zheng Guangfu's case. The police saw from the surveillance records that Tan Fang and Zheng Guangfu had several contacts, so they asked her for questioning. She didn't do anything illegal, so you don't have to worry too much." Chen Xing didn't hide anything.
"It's related to Zheng Guangfu's case? How could it be? It was absolutely impossible for Sister Tan to have contact with Zheng Guangfu. The police must have made a mistake. Hearing Chen Xing's words, Lu Xiaojing, who had just calmed down, became excited again. Her eyes were wide open and her face was full of disbelief. "Mayor Chen, there must be a mistake. How could Sister Tan contact Zheng Guangfu several times?"
Mr. Lu, the police won't bring people in randomly. What you're saying now is just your subjective imagination. Don't jump to conclusions when you don't know the actual situation. Chen Xing glanced at Lu Xiaojing. She was young after all. Sometimes, Lu Xiaojing's words were not very mature.
When Lin Hong heard that it was related to Zheng Guangfu's case, she also came over. She was also curious about Zheng Guangfu's death, so she asked, "Mayor Chen, do the police have any clues about Zheng Guangfu's death?"
Not yet. I wonder if Miss Lin knows anything? Chen Xing looked at Lin Hong and suddenly thought that Lin Hong had many contacts with Zheng Guangfu. He was afraid that he would also be questioned by the police in these two days.
Lin Hong didn't know what Chen Xing was thinking. She smiled and shook her head. "If I knew who poisoned Zheng Guangfu, I would be a living immortal. I'm more curious about this than anyone else. To be able to poison Zheng Guangfu without anyone knowing, I think it must be someone very close to Zheng Guangfu. Otherwise, there would be no chance. But I'm puzzled. Zheng Guangfu is a very loyal person. How could someone close to him poison him?"
"You said you don't know. That's just your guess." Chen Xing smiled and looked at the time. It was only 10 o 'clock. Chen Xing planned to go back to the office. Chen Xing still had to think carefully about how to make use of the things that Lin Hong gave him. The contents of the small diary were undoubtedly a big killer weapon to bring down Li Haocheng. If something happened to Li Haocheng, the impact would be completely different from that of Zhang Qingyang and the others being taken away by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. At that time, the whole municipal circle of Nanzhou would be shaken. As for the Municipal Government, without Li Haocheng, the Executive Deputy Mayor who dared to oppose him openly and secretly, the whole Municipal Government would be under his complete control. Chen Xing would definitely make good use of this opportunity to reshuffle the Municipal Government.
"Miss Lin, I have to go first. Do you want to stay or …?" Chen Xing turned to look at Lin Hong.
"Then I'll go too. If I stay here, I'm afraid some people won't like me." Lin Hong's face was full of smiles. Lin Hong, who had been in a bad mood these days, could still smile. It was nothing more than to deliberately annoy Lu Xiaojing. Lu Xiaojing was easily irritated by Lin Hong. She gritted her teeth and snorted, turning her head to one side. In front of Chen Xing, she couldn't quarrel with Lin Hong.
Chen Xing looked at the two people who were at loggerheads with each other and shook his head. He could more or less see that Lin Hong was just playing with Lu Xiaojing. The angrier Lu Xiaojing was, the more complacent Lin Hong was.
Chen Xing took the lead and walked out. Lin Hong was not in the mood to quarrel with Lu Xiaojing. He turned around proudly and followed Chen Xing's steps. Lu Xiaojing stood behind and looked at Lin Hong's back. If her eyes could kill people, she would have killed Lin Hong many times. Seeing this, Huang Ming could only smile bitterly and shake his head. "Xiaojing, you don't have to be angry. Otherwise, Lin Hong will get what he wants."
"I'm not angry. I hate her." Lu Xiaojing clenched her fists.
"It's useless to hate her. You can't find someone to retaliate against her, right? If you do that, you will also commit a crime, and the loss will outweigh the gain." Huang Ming shook his head. "The net of justice has long arms. I believe that she will get the punishment she deserves sooner or later."
"I hope so. But now, who dares to believe in the fairness of the law? Good people don't live long, while bad people live for thousands of years. These bad people are getting more and more rampant because they don't get the punishment they deserve." Lu Xiaojing was very pessimistic. The more she said, the angrier she became. "Now that Mayor Chen is close to Lin Hong, look at her arrogant look. She thinks that Mayor Chen is her backer. I don't know what Mayor Chen is thinking. Lin Hong has done many evil things. How can Mayor Chen be close to her? Isn't he afraid that his reputation will be damaged?"
"Chen Xing must have his own considerations to be close to her. We don't understand it, so don't say much. Don't show any dissatisfaction in front of Chen Xing." Huang Ming specially reminded Lu Xiaojing.
"Don't worry, I know the severity of the matter. This is a different matter. I can still bear it. If the hotel didn't have Chen Xing's care, it wouldn't have been able to get rid of the crisis so quickly. I am grateful to Mayor Chen from the bottom of my heart. It's just that I can't understand why he is close to Lin Hong. He clearly knows that Lin Hong is the instigator of the disaster of our hotel. Moreover, you were kidnapped because of Lin Hong. It seems that Mayor Chen doesn't care about these things. I really don't know what he is thinking."
"Let's not worry about this. The Chen Xing I know is a person who distinguishes between love and hate. He is also a person who abhors evil. He must have considered something when he did this." Huang Ming smiled. "Moreover, although I was kidnapped, I am fine. Don't think too much."
"I don't want to think anymore. The more I think about it, the angrier I get." Lu Xiaojing nodded. Thinking of Tan Fang just now, Lu Xiaojing still couldn't understand. How could Sister Tan have contact with Zheng Guangfu? Didn't Zheng Guangfu die of poisoning? Did the police have nothing better to do? Instead of investigating the real criminal suspect, they arrested some irrelevant people. "It's hard to say.
Xiaojing, since the police said that Sister Tan and Zheng Guangfu had contact before she died, it can't be false. Otherwise, when Chen Xing was here just now, they wouldn't have dared to take her away. Even if they had the guts to deceive us, they wouldn't dare to deceive Chen Xing. I think Chen Xing acquiesced to their actions, so he must have trusted them. " Huang Ming said.
"It's impossible. Zheng Guangfu doesn't have a good relationship with us. Those hooligans Lin Hong ordered to make trouble in our hotel are mostly Zheng Guangfu's thugs. It's not that Sister Tan doesn't know that. She also hates Zheng Guangfu. How could she have contact with Zheng Guangfu?" Lu Xiaojing still insisted on her statement.
Hearing Lu Xiaojing's certainty, Huang Ming could only shake his head and smile bitterly. Lu Xiaojing's character was stubborn. She couldn't listen to what others said. Although Huang Ming didn't want to believe that Tan Fang had contact with Zheng Guangfu, he was actually more willing to believe the police. After all, the police wouldn't take people away for no reason.
"Come on, let's go upstairs." Huang Ming said to Lu Xiaojing. At the moment when Huang Ming's voice fell, there was a "bang". The sound was so loud that Huang Ming and Lu Xiaojing, who were in the catering department on the third floor of the hotel, heard it clearly. Huang Ming was stunned and subconsciously turned to ask Lu Xiaojing, "What's that sound?"
"I don't know." Lu Xiaojing shook her head doubtfully, but with the screams and shouts coming from downstairs, Lu Xiaojing and Huang Ming didn't even have time to say anything. Even if they reacted slowly, they knew that something had happened downstairs. The sound just now sounded more like gunshots.
…
Chen Xing was stunned. A few drops of hot blood fell on his hand. Chen Xing could even feel the heat from it. Chen Xing's mind was blank. The whole world seemed to be frozen at this moment. Chen Xing didn't even have time to react. He was pushed down by someone. However, Chen Xing didn't have any reaction at all. He just stared blankly at Lin Hong falling in front of his eyes. The hot blood was flowing out from Lin Hong's body. Chen Xing only heard a "bang" and then saw a spray of blood from Lin Hong's body. This scene happened right in front of his eyes.
Chen Xing moved and wanted to get up. But a voice came from his body, "Mayor, don't move. It's dangerous."
Chen Xing didn't move anymore. He knew that the person on top of him was the driver, Li Yong. At that moment, Li Yong rushed over and protected him with his body. Chen Xing knew that Li Yong used him as a meat shield to protect his safety. The gunshot had stopped for a while, but Li Yong was still on top of him. Chen Xing knew that Li Yong was only doing this for his safety, so he didn't say anything. But his eyes fell on Lin Hong. Lin Hong, who was shot, was lying in a pool of blood, motionless. Chen Xing was in a trance for a moment. Everything was like a dream. He was fine just now, but now he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
"Mayor, I'll get up first. I'll cover you later. Let's hide next to the car." He heard Li Yong's voice.
"Is there still danger?" Chen Xing asked instinctively. The gunshot had stopped for a while. At this time, the criminal should have left.
It was better to be safe than sorry. Who knew who the real target of the gunman was? Maybe he made a mistake just now. "Mayor, you're a distinguished person. If you're injured, I won't be able to absolve myself. I'd rather be the one who got shot." Li Yong said in a low voice. His eyes looked around vigilantly, especially at the opposite building. The bullet was fired from the opposite building. Although the gunman might have left the scene as soon as possible, Li Yong still didn't dare to take it lightly. He was from the armed police force. As Chen Xing's driver, he also had the responsibility of protecting his leader. He had to be cautious and careful.
Next to the fallen Lin Hong, Yan Jun, as the bodyguard, had a frighteningly gloomy face at this time. He stared at the opposite building. Yan Jun had the impulse to rush over at the first moment, but when he saw Lin Hong lying on the ground, Yan Jun forcibly restrained himself. With a gun in his hand, Yan Jun stood in front of Lin Hong in the direction where the bullet came from just now. At the same time, he took out his phone and dialed 120. It had to be said that his psychological quality was indeed far better than that of ordinary people. Even though he had received special training, he was still unusually calm at this moment.
Chen Xing had moved to the side of the car in accordance with Li Yong's words. At this time, Yan Jun also quickly carried Lin Hong over. After all, the car was a bunker. It was better to have some cover than nothing.
"Is he still breathing?" Chen Xing looked at Lin Hong, whose eyes were tightly closed and motionless. He didn't even know whether Lin Hong was dead or alive.
