"Stop for a while." Qian Xinlai told the driver and said, "Get off the car later and see what's going on."
The car stopped by the road. Qian Xinlai sat quietly in the car and looked back from time to time. From this angle, he could only see the backs of Chen Xing and Li Kaishan.
He was not the only one sitting in the back seat of the car. There was also a man in his thirties. His eyes were cold and his face was expressionless. It seemed that nothing could attract his attention. His eyes were just staring indifferently in front of him and he was playing with a blade in his hand.
Qian Xinlai looked back for a while and then turned back to look at the man next to him. Qian Xinlai said, "Ah Jiu, get off the car at the next intersection. Make sure that everything is done at night. Don't make any more mistakes."
"Mr. Qian, don't worry." The man nodded expressionlessly.
"By the way, have you prepared the doctor's white coat that I want?" The man raised his eyelids and the expression on his face finally changed.
It's in the back of the car. You can go and get it after you get off the car. " Qian Xinlai nodded.
The man heard this and didn't say anything. He fell silent again.
It was quiet in the car. Qian Xinlai narrowed his eyes and didn't say anything. The man was his most capable fighter and also one of the people he trusted the most. Qian Xinlai had saved the man's life from the muzzle of a gun.
The man was a murderer and had been sentenced to death. Not only did Qian Xinlai rescue him, but he also gave him a legal identity. It could be said that he gave the man a new life. This also made the man loyal to him. Qian Xinlai also trusted him to do many shameful things.
After about two or three minutes, the driver trotted back. As soon as he got on the car, he said, "Mr. Qian, the city management was arresting those vendors to fine them. They were caught by the mayor and are being scolded."
"Oh?" Qian Xinlai frowned and said subconsciously, "Why is Chen Xing walking with Li Kaishan? Are they out at night?"
The car was quiet and no one responded. After a while, Qian Xinlai came back to his senses. Seeing that the driver was sitting in a daze, Qian Xinlai knew that it was useless to ask him, and he didn't expect him to answer.
Come on, let's drive. Qian Xinlai waved his hand and looked at the man beside him. It was more important to let him handle his matters first.
As the car drove forward, Qian Xinlai looked back one last time. His expression did not relax at all.
It had been more than ten minutes since Chen Xing and Li Kaishan left. Reprimanding these city management officers on the spot had solved the problem tonight. However, Li Kaishan knew better than anyone that these people would at most stop for a few days. After a few days, this kind of phenomenon would come back.
The owner of the barbecue stall and the surrounding vendors obviously had a lot to complain about, but in the end, none of them dared to say anything. Chen Xing suddenly said while sitting in the car with Li Kaishan.
When Li Kaishan heard Chen Xing's words, he opened his mouth and wanted to answer. However, in the end, he shook his head and remained silent.
"I haven't been in Mount Gaze for a long time, but I heard that there is a saying among the people that fines are the biggest scourge in Mount Gaze. What do you think?" Chen Xing's gaze swept across Li Kaishan's face.
"There are indeed some fines in the city." Li Kaishan's expression was solemn. "As the mayor, I have an undeniable responsibility for the endless fines."
Chen Xing's eyes narrowed slightly. He glanced at Li Kaishan calmly and said with a smile, "You don't have to say that. Everything has to be seen through the phenomenon to see the essence. I think the many fines in the city can't be seen from the surface."
"Secretary Chen is right. It's almost an open secret in the city that the law enforcement department solves part of the problem of insufficient funds through fines. The city doesn't have many ways to restrict it. Every year, the budget that the city finance should allocate is not fully allocated. When the heads of the departments come to complain, I, as the mayor, also have my own difficulties. It's not realistic to deal with these fines." Li Kaishan said helplessly. His words were heartfelt to Chen Xing.
It was one thing to be in financial difficulties, but this kind of evil practice of arbitrary fines must not be encouraged. Chen Xing's expression was solemn as he expressed his position.
Secretary Chen was right. The city should really rectify it. Li Kaishan nodded and glanced at Chen Xing. He didn't have much objection to this, but he wasn't optimistic. Rome wasn't built in a day. If it could be solved so easily, how could it become the first scourge of the three scourges in Mount Gaze?
The car drove to an intersection. Li Kaishan was sitting in Chen Xing's car, and his driver was slowly driving behind. At the intersection, Li Kaishan said, "Secretary Chen, I won't disturb your rest. I'll get off here."
"Comrade Kaishan, why don't you come to my place?" Chen Xing said with a smile.
"I'll go another day when I have the chance." Li Kaishan responded.
After saying goodbye to Chen Xing, Li Kaishan got out of the car, waved his hand, and walked back to his car. The left turn at the intersection was in the direction of the hostel. Li Kaishan's car and Chen Xing's car went in the opposite direction.
Chen Xing turned his head to take a look and frowned slightly. Chen Xing didn't have any objection to Li Kaishan's behavior just now. However, it was hard to judge a person's true nature. He still couldn't see through Li Kaishan. But tonight, he encountered the arbitrary fines again. Chen Xing's heart was very heavy. It was the common people who suffered. At this moment, Chen Xing thought of a saying for no reason: When the government prospers, the common people suffer; when the government collapses, the common people suffer.
"Xiao Huang, ask the general office to take the lead in doing a survey about the fines. Don't make it public. Just do it quietly." Chen Xing thought for a while and instructed Huang Jianghua.
"Okay." Huang Jianghua nodded and said.
After settling Huang Jianghua's matter, Chen Xing finally felt at ease. Thinking about the purpose of Li Kaishan's visit tonight, Chen Xing's eyes revealed a contemplative look. Li Kaishan had come to him for Qin Peng's matter. Chen Xing was already 70% sure that Li Kaishan had come to him for Qin Peng's matter. Thinking about Zhang Lixing's big case that Qin Peng was involved in, Chen Xing's expression turned solemn. This case was to use Qin Peng as a breakthrough point and slowly carry out the investigation. If any accidents happened at the beginning, or if it was discovered by Zhang Lixing, he would be in a passive position.
Li Kaishan, Zhang Lixing, and Liang Jing flashed through Chen Xing's mind. His eyebrows were tightly knitted. As the director of the Municipal Government Office, Liang Jing's role was equivalent to Li Kaishan's housekeeper. Chen Xing believed that Liang Jing should be a person that Li Kaishan trusted very much. However, Liang Jing and Zhang Lixing had an improper relationship. Did Li Kaishan know about it? If he knew, what did Li Kaishan think? What was the relationship between Li Kaishan and Zhang Lixing?
Thinking of these, Chen Xing's eyebrows were really knitted together. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. He really couldn't guess the relationship between these people.
After returning to the hostel, Huang Jianghua and Li Yong left after staying for a while. Chen Xing watched the news for a while. He had nothing to do at night, so he went to bed early.
The next morning, Chen Xing was woken up by the phone. It was Gu Panman, who asked him to go for a morning jog. Only then did Chen Xing remember that this was the appointment they made yesterday morning. Gu Panman took it seriously. After Chen Xing hung up the phone, he looked at the time and smiled bitterly. It was only about six o 'clock. Gu Panman had already run to the hostel from the Xincheng District. Chen Xing was afraid that Gu Panman hadn't gotten up yet, so he called him first.
Getting up from the bed, Chen Xing washed up and changed into sportswear. He walked to the door and stretched his limbs. Not long after, he saw Gu Panman's figure appear in his sight.
Today, Gu Panman had changed into a tight-fitting sportswear. Chen Xing's eyes swept over Gu Panman's body. He was a little surprised. When he saw Gu Panman wearing the Procuratorate's work uniform and the loose sportswear yesterday, he really couldn't tell that Gu Panman had such a good figure. Now, the exquisite curves outlined by the tight-fitting sportswear made people's hearts palpitate.
Seeming to feel something strange in Chen Xing's eyes, Gu Panman also showed a trace of shyness in the depths of her eyes. She didn't wear this sportswear much today, not only because it was tight, but also because it was a little close-fitting, so she rarely wore it. She would only wear it when she was practicing yoga in the house. Today, she deliberately wore it out. Feeling Chen Xing's gaze, Gu Panman was a little embarrassed, but as a woman, she was a little proud.
"Xiao Gu, which route do you run every day? I have to tell you first that it can't be too far, or I'm afraid that my old bones won't be able to come back. " Chen Xing smiled.
"Secretary Chen, it's not very far. It's just a small circle around the downtown area, which is only five or six kilometers." Gu Panman smiled.
"Five or six kilometers is not far? "Xiao Gu, I think you really want me to fall on the way. No, no, the distance is shorter." Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand.
"Then I'll follow Secretary Chen's instructions and run as far as I can." Gu Panman smiled and nodded. Gu Panman also had an indescribable good impression of this funny and young secretary in front of her.
The two of them ran along the road. It was about six o 'clock in the morning in winter. The sky was still a little dark, and there were no cars or pedestrians on the road. The air was fresh and a little cold. When they inhaled it into their lungs and exhaled it with hot air, they seemed to be a little more energetic.
Chen Xing had never run on this road in the morning. Looking at Gu Panman beside him, who was still walking lightly and in high spirits after running for more than ten minutes, Chen Xing shook his head and smiled bitterly. He felt that after running for one or two kilometers, he was really a little tired because he didn't exercise regularly.
After a round of running, Chen Xing finally sat on the sofa in the living room. His legs were still a little sore. Thinking of how Gu Panman seemed to have only walked about a hundred meters, Chen Xing couldn't help but sigh that people who persisted in running were really different.
After resting for a while, there was the sound of a car parking outside the door. Chen Xing looked at the time. It was half past seven. He knew that Li Yong and Huang Jianghua had arrived.
"Secretary, did you go jogging in the morning?" Huang Jianghua walked in and saw Chen Xing resting on the sofa in sportswear. He couldn't help but smile.
"After running for a while, I almost can't stand up now." Chen Xing smiled.
"Secretary, do you want me to bring you a basin of hot water to soak your feet? You will feel better after soaking." Huang Jianghua said.
"No need." Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand. After sitting for a while, he got up, took a shower, changed his clothes, and went out.
It was still a little past eight o 'clock when he arrived at the Municipal Party Committee. Chen Xing usually came much earlier than the working time in the morning.
Lin Siyu could still be seen busy in the office. The little girl was diligently cleaning the office. Chen Xing could only shake his head and tell Lin Siyu not to clean the office every day. This little girl was also stubborn and cute.
It was close to nine o 'clock. The person who came to report to Chen Xing in the morning was already waiting outside the office. After receiving a phone call, Huang Jianghua pushed the door open in a hurry, walked to Chen Xing, and whispered something to him.
"What?" Chen Xing stood up in shock. "Did he make a mistake?"
"No, that's what Secretary Chang said on the phone." Huang Jianghua shook his head. Li Yanli was dead. Chang Shengjun just called to tell him about it. Chen Xing specially called Chang Shengjun yesterday to let him know about the case. Chang Shengjun also paid attention to it and asked Zhou Huai to follow up. In the morning, when he heard that Li Yanli had died before the critical period, Chang Shengjun didn't ignore it. He hurriedly called Huang Jianghua to report to Chen Xing.
"What else did Chang Shengjun say?" "How did she die?" Chen Xing asked. He still couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.
Secretary Chang said that the hospital's explanation was that she had not passed the critical period. Huang Jianghua said.
"Not passed the critical period?" Hearing this answer, Chen Xing's pupils shrank. He went to the hospital to see Li Yanli last night. Although he didn't enter the ICU, he happened to see Li Yanli wake up. He also learned from the doctor that Li Yanli waking up meant that she had passed the critical period. Hearing this answer, Chen Xing was stunned.
