"Secretary, what are you doing?" Huang Jianghua looked at Chen Xing in confusion.
"It's nothing. The night before last, Chang Shengjun came over with the mobile phone …" Chen Xing was about to say this, but thinking that Huang Jianghua didn't know about it, he immediately waved his hand and said, "Forget it, you will know about it later."
After a pause, Chen Xing said with a smile, "Let's go out."
"Oh." Huang Jianghua nodded in a daze. He hadn't heard Chen Xing say that he was going out in the afternoon.
Since he said that a friend was coming, he had to put on a good show. Chen Xing smiled. Although he asked Huang Jianghua to say that a friend was coming, it was the same for him to go out by himself. He just had to put on a good show.
Turning around and walking back to the office, Chen Xing didn't go out immediately. He stayed for five or six minutes before leaving the office. He took the stairs on this side, which was usually deserted. Chen Xing vaguely knew that the Municipal Party Committee compound called this staircase in private. The staff only took the stairs on the other side. This was the invisible hierarchy in the officialdom system. Chen Xing was disgusted by these unwritten rules, but he knew that he couldn't change this situation.
After going downstairs, Chen Xing got in the car with a serious face. Looking out of the window at the staff passing by from time to time, Chen Xing couldn't relax at all. As the dignified Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he had to consider hiding everything. This was ironic.
Looking up, Chen Xing looked around. The office building of the Wangshan Municipal Party Committee was a little old. It was built 20 or 30 years ago. The entire Municipal Party Committee compound was composed of several office buildings. In recent years, it had been renovated once, but no elevators had been installed. In the second phase of the old city reconstruction project, the construction of the new Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government Building was planned. Chen Xing didn't express his opinion on this, but he planned to stop the construction of the new Municipal Party Committee office building.
The car turned around and drove out. As the angle of the car changed, Chen Xing's eyes moved naturally. When a person appeared in his sight, Chen Xing frowned slightly. Wei Sida, the General Office Director, was standing in the corridor upstairs and looking down. From his point of view, Chen Xing could roughly see that Wei Sida was watching his car.
Looking back, Chen Xing frowned. No one knew what he was thinking. Soon, his frown eased again.
Upstairs, Wei Sida's cell phone rang. After looking at the number, Wei Sida walked into his office and closed the door before answering the phone.
Chief Wei, who is Secretary Chen meeting now? Zhang Lixing's voice came from the phone.
Secretary Chen just went out, and you left right after him. Wei Sida said.
"Oh." Zhang Lixing responded subconsciously. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Is there anything strange about Secretary Chen?"
"No, he's the same as usual. There's nothing special." Wei Sida replied and felt strange. "Why did Mayor Zhang ask this?"
"No, I'm just asking casually. Well, there's nothing else. Let's find a time to have dinner together next time. I won't disturb Chief Wei now." Zhang Lixing said with a smile.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Lixing clicked his tongue and turned to Liang Jing, who was sitting next to him. "Chen Xing is really strange today. Why did he ask you to come with him? Is it just to praise you by saying that women can hold up half the sky?"
"Who knows? Secretary Huang said that Secretary Chen was looking for me. I was puzzled and didn't know it was him, so I also asked you to come. As a result, I went in and sat for two minutes before coming out." Liang Jing shook his head with a smile. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mayor, maybe Secretary Chen wants to know about the old city reconstruction project from you, so he asked me to come with him."
"If you are the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, will you ask someone to come to your office for no reason?" Zhang Lixing curled his lips and asked Liang Jing. "No leader has very free working hours. It's understandable that Chen Xing asked me to come over. Liang Jing is just the director of the Municipal Government Office. Chen Xing won't directly pay attention to Liang Jing and ask him to come over."
"I don't know. Secretary Chen is really strange today." Liang Jing shook his head. Thinking that Chen Xing just joked that she and Zhao Yuxuan were called the two golden flowers of Wangshan's officialdom, Liang Jing couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't know why Chen Xing, the secretary, had the leisure to say this.
Zhang Lixing pondered. He couldn't think of a reason, so he soon let go of this matter and turned his attention to the old city reconstruction project. Chen Xing's attention to this project was not a good thing for Zhang Lixing. After thinking about it carefully and making sure that there would be no mistakes, Zhang Lixing was relieved. Compared with Chen Xing's strange behavior today, he was more concerned about whether there would be any problems with the old city reconstruction project.
As the car drove on the street, Chen Xing asked Li Yong to drive to a sports park on the edge of the city. This was a sports park built as one of the top ten practical projects in Wangshan last year to enrich the leisure life of the people. The park was very large.
In addition to basketball and football fields, there was also a fitness area with outdoor fitness equipment installed. There were also many entertainment venues planned, such as skating rink, swimming pool, badminton court, and some entertainment facilities such as ferris wheel, pirate ship, and so on. However, many of the entertainment facilities looked very old and did not seem to match the actual construction time of the park. In fact, it was not surprising. Most of the entertainment facilities here were bought and installed. Wangshan's financial resources were limited. With the idea of saving money, the entertainment facilities installed in the sports park were all purchased second-hand and were installed after being tested for safety.
After Chen Xing got out of the car, he walked in the park. Huang Jianghua and Li Yong were a little strange. Huang Jianghua asked, "Secretary, why are you in the mood to come to the park today?
Do you see that? There are people waiting in front. " Chen Xing smiled and pointed to the front.
Huang Jianghua looked forward in confusion. In front of them was the outdoor fitness area. Huang Jianghua took a closer look and suddenly realized that the person practicing on the parallel bars was Chang Shengjun.
Why was Secretary Chang here? Huang Jianghua shook his head and smiled.
Indeed, he didn't know why he came here. Chen Xing smiled.
Walking forward, Chang Shengjun was still practicing on the parallel bars. His face was flushed and he was panting. Chen Xing didn't notice him when he approached. Instead, Cao Huai saw him first and was about to call out to Chang Shengjun. Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand.
After waiting for more than a minute, Chang Shengjun jumped down and wiped the sweat on his forehead. When he turned around and saw Chen Xing, Chang Shengjun was shocked. "Secretary Chen, when did you arrive?
I just arrived. I didn't dare to disturb you when you were practicing hard. " Chen Xing said with a smile.
"Secretary Chen, you are flattering me." Chang Shengjun smiled bitterly and said to Cao Huai, "Little Zhou, Secretary Chen is here.
Why didn't you call me? "
"I told him not to make a sound." Chen Xing laughed. Looking at Chang Shengjun's muscular arms, he laughed and said, "Shengjun, not bad. Look at your muscular arms."
"Compared with when you were young, you are old." Hearing that, Chang Shengjun shook his head with a smile. He took the coat from Zhou Huai and put it on. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and handed it to Chen Xing. "Secretary Chen, look. The original data of the mobile phone has been restored. The phone number and text messages are all there."
"Have you confirmed the identity of the owner?" Chen Xing took the mobile phone and asked.
"Yes, it's a man named Qin Peng. I checked his identity. He is a deputy section chief of the Local Taxation Bureau of Fengcheng District." Chang Shengjun said.
"Oh?" Chen Xing raised his eyebrows. Obviously, he couldn't associate a deputy section chief of the Local Taxation Bureau with Zhang Lixing and Liang Jing. After all, the identity gap between them was huge.
Chen Xing took out the mobile phone and looked at some call records. When he noticed that several of the calls were made to a woman named "Xiao Jing", Chen Xing was slightly stunned. He didn't say anything and continued to read the messages. Chen Xing looked through many message records and thought of something. Slowly, Chen Xing's face became a little interesting.
"Xiao Huang, take the address book and find the phone number of Liang Jing, the director of the Government Office." Chen Xing suddenly turned to Huang Jianghua and said.
"Secretary Chen, there's no need to check it. I've confirmed that the phone number of Xiao Jing is the phone number of Liang Jing, the director of the Municipal Government Office." Chang Shengjun said.
Hearing that, Chen Xing, who had roughly connected the dots in his mind, opened his mouth and suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Is this Qin Peng and Liang Jing husband and wife?" Chen Xing asked.
"No, Director Liang's husband is a lecturer in the Party School of the Municipal Party Committee." Chang Shengjun said.
"This relationship is really messy." Hearing that, Chen Xing shook his head. Thinking of Liang Jing, who was wearing a female business suit in the office, dignified and decent, Chen Xing actually had a good impression of him. At this moment, after hearing this, there was only one sentence left in Chen Xing's mind: "You really can't judge a book by its cover."
"Maybe there's something wrong with the relationship between Director Liang and her husband. But the time is too short, so that's all I can find for the time being." Chang Shengjun shook his head and said.
"It's already very good. In less than two days, you have to go to Nanzhou State to find an expert to restore the data of the mobile phone and figure out these things. It's very efficient." Chen Xing waved his hand and confirmed that it was Chang Shengjun's work.
They walked forward. In front of them was the football field, and there was a long stone bench on the side. Chen Xing gestured to Chang Shengjun and walked over to sit down. Huang Jianghua, Zhou Huai, and the others stood on the side to prevent people from getting too close.
"Shengjun, tell me your opinion." Chen Xing sat down and said. Although he had a rough guess in his heart, he still wanted to hear Chang Shengjun's opinion.
"Secretary Chen, according to the recorded conversation and other information obtained from the mobile phone, it can basically be determined that Director Liang has an unusual relationship with this Qin Peng. As for the relationship between Director Liang and Deputy Mayor Zhang …" Speaking of this, Chang Shengjun paused and looked at Chen Xing. The background of the recording was obviously recorded after the thing between Liang Jing and Zhang Lixing. There was no need to say it too clearly. Given the relationship between Director Liang and Qin Peng, it was unknown whether the recording was premeditated or accidentally.
"That's right. Whether it was premeditated or accidentally recorded, this question is really worth exploring." Chen Xing nodded his head. After all, the wisdom of one person could never compare to that of two people. He did not think of this point just now. It was only after Chang Shengjun brought it up that Chen Xing came to a sudden realization. If this was premeditated, he would have to consider it from another angle.
Contemplating, Chen Xing carefully thought about his observation of Zhang Lixing and Liang Jing in the office just now. Now he could be sure that the woman's voice was Liang Jing's. Today, he called Liang Jing and Zhang Lixing together. In addition to listening carefully to Liang Jing's voice, Chen Xing also wanted to observe whether there was any abnormal behavior between Liang Jing and Zhang Lixing.
"Looking at the text message on the mobile phone, the relationship between Qin Peng and Liang Jing is unusual. If this recording was premeditated, then these two people are really …" Chen Xing shook his head. Liang Jing had a relationship with Qin Peng and Zhang Lixing. Chen Xing couldn't connect his current understanding of Liang Jing with the dignified image just now.
"Secretary, is it possible that after knowing that Director Liang has a relationship with Deputy Mayor Zhang, Qin Peng was dissatisfied and wanted to take revenge, so he waited for an opportunity to record such a recording." Chang Shengjun said.
"Does he, a small deputy director of the Local Taxation Bureau, dare to do this?" Chen Xing shook his head and smiled. "Moreover, if the relationship between Liang Jing and Zhang Lixing was premeditated, and the relationship between Liang Jing and Qin Peng was developed later, why should Qin Peng be dissatisfied?"
"That's true." Chang Shengjun shook his head with a wry smile. "Anyway, as you said, the relationship between these people is really messy. We can't come to a conclusion just by guessing."
But now, at least it was confirmed that the owner of the mobile phone was Qin Peng, which was more important than anything else. As Chen Xing spoke, a cold light flashed in his eyes. "Didn't you say that the authenticity of this mobile phone recording can't be determined by technical means? Now we have confirmed that Qin Peng is the owner of the mobile phone. If we can confirm the authenticity of this recording through him, then this recording is enough to be used as evidence."
"Yes, but if we do this, I'm afraid we have to take measures against Qin Peng." Chang Shengjun glanced at Chen Xing. "Secretary Chen, what do you mean?"
"Don't worry." Chen Xing waved his hand. "Let's spend more time to understand the relationship between these people first, and don't act rashly and alert the enemy for the time being."
As Chen Xing spoke, he looked at Chang Shengjun and said with a smile, "Next, I have to trouble you. Since you found out about this mobile phone, you can only continue this matter. It's not good to pass it to others, and I'm not at ease."
"Since this is the instruction of Secretary Chen, I will obey it firmly." Chang Shengjun said with a smile.
When they were talking, the sudden cheers from the side almost drowned their voices. Chen Xing looked in the direction of the sound and saw that in front of the goal on one side of the football field, there were more than a dozen young people. They should be playing a small game. At this time, someone scored a goal, and several girls were cheering on the side.
"It's good to be young." Looking at the young people who were sweating on the football field in front of him and the young girls who were cheering on the side, Chen Xing couldn't help but smile. He seemed to be in a good mood all of a sudden.
"Yes, it's good to be young." Chang Shengjun also looked forward and said sincerely. He also remembered the carefree and happy time when he was still a student of the police school, sweating like rain on the field with a group of classmates. Now they had long gone their separate ways, got married, and their children were about to grow up. That former youth had become a throbbing dream when he dreamed about it in the middle of the night.
"How did you find such a place today?" Chen Xing asked with a smile.
"I couldn't find a good place to talk in the city, so I thought I might as well go outside the city." Chang Shengjun smiled. He learned about this park when he went out with Xiao Zhou a few days ago.
"This park is good. I think there seems to be only one park in the city. There are still too few parks in Wangshan City. We should build some recreational and exercise places for the people, which is also part of the smart construction of civilization." Chen Xing said with a smile.
Secretary Chen, you're the only one who can push for this. Chang Shengjun laughed. "The people of Wangshan City are really blessed to have a secretary like you."
"Sheng Jun, when did you learn to flatter me like this?" Chen Xing glanced at Chang Shengjun with a smile.
"Secretary Chen, I'm telling the truth." Chang Shengjun said seriously. "I heard that you brought a lot of investment to Wangshan from Nanzhou as soon as you arrived. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't be able to do it."
"You." Chen Xing pointed at Chang Shengjun and said with a smile, "Sheng Jun, you don't have to say these nice things in front of me in the future. It seems that you still don't know me."
"Secretary Chen, I'm not saying nice things. I'm telling the truth." Chang Shengjun gave a hollow laugh. He had to admit that he was indeed flattering Chen Xing, but in the officialdom, who could be immune?
Hearing Chang Shengjun's words, Chen Xing could only smile. He raised his hand to look at the time and said with a smile, "Let's go. It's time for us to leave."
As they talked, they walked out of the park. They didn't walk fast. Chen Xing pointed to the mountain peak not far away. The key to the development of Wangshan City was to bring in more funds and excavate more local resources. "Look at the mountain peak not far away. It looks magnificent. Wangshan City is a mountainous city, and the landscape tourism resources should be very valuable."
"That mountain is quite high. I don't know if it has a name." Chang Shengjun glanced at it and said with a smile.
"That is the most famous Qipan Mountain in Wangshan City. You don't even know this. You must be a foreigner, young man."
Behind him, an old and somewhat hoarse voice came, and Chang Shenjun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was already in his forties, and there was actually someone who called him a young man. When he turned his head, Chang Shenjun's mouth that had just opened froze. The white-haired old man in front of him was at least 70 or 80 years old, right? If the other party really took advantage of his seniority and called him a young man, he really couldn't get angry.
"I'm 87 years old this year. You won't suffer a loss if I call you a young man." The old man seemed to have seen through Chang Shengjun's thoughts at a glance. He seemed old, but his eyes were particularly bright.
"I won't suffer a loss. At your age, if you say I'm a child, I wouldn't dare to say anything." Chang Shengjun smiled. Looking at the old man in front of him, Chang Shengjun was a little surprised. He really couldn't tell that the old man was 87 years old. He looked very spirited.
"That is Qipan Mountain, the most famous mountain in Wangshan City. You don't know it. You must be foreigners who have just come to Wangshan." The old man looked at Chen Xing and the others and said with a smile. The young man he had just mentioned did not refer to Chang Shengjun alone, but to Chen Xing and the others in general. It was not that he took advantage of his seniority, but when he looked at Chen Xing and the others, except for Chang Shengjun, they all looked to be in their twenties or thirties. In his eyes, they were really just young men.
"The old man's eyes are like torches. We are indeed foreigners who have just come to Wangshan." Chen Xing nodded with a smile and looked at the old man. Beside him was a pretty girl. Chen Xing guessed that she should be the old man's granddaughter. When he was about to leave, he heard the old man's seemingly casual smile. "If Wangshan wants to develop, I think we should not only focus on the economy, but also on the tigers and flies. Otherwise, it will become a stumbling block to development."
Chen Xing and Chang Shengjun, who were about to leave, were both stunned, and a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes. Chen Xing was not in a hurry to leave. He said with a smile, "How could the old man have such an opinion?
It's not that I have such an opinion, but you are foreigners. I guess you don't know that there are three scourges in Wangshan, right? " The old man smiled and glanced at Chen Xing and Chang Shengjun. His wrinkled eyelids lifted slightly.
The three scourges in Wangshan that the old man mentioned referred to the fines, corrupt officials, and new cities. Chen Xing looked at him with a playful smile. The old man in front of him was interesting.
"Ah, so you know. I thought you didn't know. It seems that you have been in Wangshan for a while." When the old man heard Chen Xing's words, he shook his head and smiled as if he was talking to himself. "Either the three scourges in Wangshan are already notorious, and anyone who comes here will know about them."
"Old man, just now you said that if Wangshan wants to develop, not only should we focus on the economy, but we also have to fight the tigers and swat the flies. This is quite new, and I don't know what you have to say." Chen Xing narrowed his eyes with a smile. Looking at the old man's manner of speech and bearing, Chen Xing vaguely felt that he was not like an ordinary old man.
"I'm just an old man with one foot in the grave. I don't have any brilliant opinions. I'm just saying it casually. I don't have any brilliant opinions, only fallacies." The old man smiled and shook his head. "I just heard you talking about the development of Wangshan, but I didn't know that this Wangshan is famous for its Qipan Mountain. That's why I spoke out of turn. Please don't take offense."
"What are you talking about, old man? You are so old, and your experience is a valuable asset. Even if it is fallacies, we are willing to listen." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"I'd better not say it. There is nothing to say about fallacies." The old man smiled and waved his hand. "I'd better continue to take a walk in this park."
After the old man finished speaking, he patted the hand of the girl next to him and walked to another stone path with a smile. Chen Xing and Chang Shengjun stood there, looking at the old man's back as he left. They looked at each other.
"Hey, this old man is a little interesting." Chang Shengjun also said at this time.
"Indeed." Chen Xing nodded with a smile and watched the old man leave thoughtfully. Chen Xing finally shook his head and said with a smile, "Let's go. It's time for us to go."
After Chen Xing and Chang Shengjun left, the old man who was walking in the park looked back. Seeing that Chen Xing and the others had disappeared, the woman said, "Grandpa, why did you talk to those people just now? I don't think you like to hit on people."
"Little Yuan, you often sit in front of the TV and watch the news like me. Can't you recognize the young man standing in front of you?" The old man looked at his precious granddaughter and said with a smile.
"How would I know who that person is?" The woman asked curiously.
He was the new Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Chen Xing. The old man smiled faintly, and a few more rays of light appeared in his already bright eyes.
"Ah?" The woman's eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief. "Grandpa, are you sure?"
"How could I be wrong? I'm old, but I'm not blind." The old man laughed heartily.
"But he is the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Why is he here?" "Moreover, don't the big leaders of the city always come with a large group of people when they come out for inspection? I didn't see him just now." The woman asked curiously.
"I don't know why he is here, but my eyes can't be wrong." The old man smiled and narrowed his eyes slightly. Chen Xing, who had just arrived, actually knew about the Three Great Pests of Mount Gaze. The old man was actually a little surprised just now, so he didn't say anything.
"Grandpa, you recognized him just now, so you deliberately spoke."
The old man smiled and didn't say anything. The expression on his face was a tacit admission.
…
On the streets of the urban area, Qin Peng was driving at a high speed. It was not the rush hour, so the roads were rarely congested in the urban area. There were even fewer cars on the road. Qin Peng's speed had exceeded the speed limit of the urban road. When he passed a red light, he directly ran through it. When a traffic policeman on duty on the side of the road wanted to stop the car, he curled his lips when he saw the license plate number and didn't stop the car again. He knew the owner of the car, who was from the District Local Taxation Bureau.
Qin Peng drove straight into the District Public Security Bureau. He got out of the car, made a phone call, and then hurried inside.
Soon, a person came out to greet him. When he saw Qin Peng, he smiled and said, "Section Chief Qin, you came really fast.
"Captain Lin, did you catch the man who robbed me of my mobile phone?" Qin Peng didn't have time to exchange pleasantries and said eagerly.
"Well, it should be the man who robbed you. Come here and confirm it." The police officer surnamed Lin said.
