Wang Shihai thought that the fact that he secretly went to the two regulations to meet Ji Gang would not be known by outsiders. The few investigators who knew were all his subordinates in the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Department, so they would not report him to their superiors. They also had no reason to do so. On the other hand, Ceng Hanlin, the director, might have found out that he had been to Ji Gang's room, but none of them would know what he had talked about with Ji Gang. If these people in front of him had any evidence, they would have thrown it in his face long ago. Why would they waste time arguing with him?
When he thought of this, he felt a little more confident and said, "I really haven't seen Ji Gang … Oh, no, I've seen him before. I'm wrong. I've seen him before, but I didn't talk to him. It was two nights ago when I went to the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Department to understand the use of the rooms. After that, I walked around the rooms to check if there was any possibility of the officers escaping or committing suicide. Then, I left. During this process, I didn't talk to Ji Gang. Before I went there, I didn't know where Ji Gang and the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Department were at. Maybe some of the comrades misunderstood me and thought that I had a secret conversation with Ji Gang, but how is that possible? I'm not familiar with Ji Gang at all. What could I have talked about with him? "
Song Chaoyang saw that he was still stubbornly denying and became impatient.
Li Rui saw this and hurriedly gave Ceng Hanlin a look.
Ceng Hanlin understood and took out two written certificates from Ji Gang's disciplinary officers. He took a few steps forward and placed them in front of Wang Shihai. He said coldly, "Director Wang, many of Ji Gang's colleagues have reported that you stayed in Ji Gang's room for three to four minutes. Were you checking the room's security measures for such a long time?"
Wang Shihai's expression changed immediately. He snatched the written certificates and saw the signatures of several familiar subordinates. He was shocked and angry. When he saw the contents of the certificates, he became even more resentful. He said with a livid face, "How could it be so long? I think they remembered wrongly. They investigate cases all day and are under too much psychological pressure. Many of them have neurological problems such as visual and auditory hallucinations. Moreover, they have been suppressed in their rooms all day. They have long lost track of time. How could they remember so clearly? Director Ceng, what do you mean by asking them to make such written certificates? If you have a problem with me, just say it to my face. Don't play these little tricks behind my back. "
Ceng Hanlin was bitten by him, but he didn't care. He said indifferently, "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. I still have evidence here." After saying that, he took out a USB flash drive and said, "This is a surveillance video of you. The second night after you visited Ji Gang, when you ran to Ji Gang's house to deliver a message, you were accidentally captured by the surveillance camera in the elevator. This is another piece of evidence. You still dare to deny it? "
Li Rui added, "Ji Gang's wife has already admitted that you went to her house. In addition, Ji Gang's son, Ji Renjie, also overheard your conversation with his mother. Tell Ji Gang's wife that Ji Gang asked you to tell her that I was the one who harmed him. Do you dare to deny it? "
Wang Shihai was dumbfounded. Only then did he realize that before these people lured him here, they already had evidence of his whereabouts and crimes. It was laughable that he still refused to admit it. In the end, he was just playing the role of a clown in front of them. He was shocked and regretful, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Li Rui asked again, "I'll ask you one last time. Who ordered you to do this?"
Wang Shihai had already decided not to stubbornly resist and confess honestly. However, he didn't expect Li Rui to ask a question that didn't seem to be directed at him. He had already asked this question in the beginning. It seemed that he wasn't targeting him from the beginning, but the mastermind behind the scenes. After realizing this, he suddenly realized that if they were really targeting him this time, there was no need to send the two leaders, Song Chaoyang and Xiao Dawei. They were not supposed to be here, but they were here. This meant that they weren't paying attention to him, but the mastermind behind him. In that case, as long as he confessed, there was still hope.
He thought of this and said in a panic, "It … It was Secretary Wei who ordered me to do this. It wasn't my idea. Song Shuji, Secretary Xiao, it was Wei Hai who ordered me to do this. As his subordinate, I didn't dare to disobey. You have to understand my difficulties. Now that I have told him the truth, please give me another chance. I will abide by the rules and discipline in the future and won't do this kind of thing again. I have fully realized my mistakes … "
Song Chaoyang waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this first. Now, write down the details that Wei Hai told you and everything that you did. Once you're done, sign it and leave your name."
Wang Shihai's expression was humble and full of expectation as he said, "Song Shuji, if I write it down, will … will I be able to atone for my crimes?"
Song Chaoyang scolded, "I've already given you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. Why are you asking for a favor now? I'm telling you, write it down first, then go back and wait for the punishment you deserve. "
Wang Shihai's expression instantly became sad and desolate, as if he had suddenly learned that he had terminal cancer.
Ceng Hanlin took out a pen and paper from his briefcase and placed it on the coffee table, motioning for Wang Shihai to write.
Wang Shihai didn't dare to disobey. He leaned over listlessly, squatted on the floor, and began to write.
Fifteen minutes later, Xiao Dawei, Ceng Hanlin, Wang Shihai, and the others left one after another.
Song Chaoyang looked at Wang Shihai's confession in his hand and instructed Li Rui, "After work tomorrow, when I'm free, call Wei Hai to my office and see what he has to say."
Li Rui smiled and said, "I feel that Wei Hai and Yu Heping's relationship is only average. Compared to others, they are somewhat close. After all, they have worked together before. However, when it comes to important matters, he may not be able to stand firmly with Yu Heping. After you warned him this time, out of consideration for his reputation, he won't be too close to Yu Heping in the future. "
Song Chaoyang nodded slowly and said, "I'm not worried about Wei Hai anymore. Although he is in charge of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, he is too narrow-minded and petty in his actions. If he is willing to be ordered around by Yu Heping, he is destined to not have great achievements. It will also be difficult for him to become my direct enemy. Next, I will clean up the bureaucracy, appoint talented people, focus on poverty alleviation, and improve construction. I will treat people with an upright attitude and govern with open and aboveboard policies. Even if he is Yu Heping, he will not be able to restrict me. "
Li Rui nodded repeatedly as he listened. In his heart, he thought that his boss's breadth of mind had broadened yet again. His entire aura seemed to have risen to a whole new level. He had the aura of a deputy provincial leader. Suddenly, he thought of his father-in-law's comments last night. He smiled and said, "Oh right, boss. Last night, I told my father-in-law about the incident in the city where Han Shui was removed from office. He gave you a high evaluation …" He told him about Lu Zhouxing's comments and suggestions.
Song Chaoyang was very happy to hear that. He said, "When you contact Governor Lu later, you can tell him not to worry. This time, I will definitely follow his wishes to clean up the bureaucracy in Qingyang. I will only deal with the officials with serious problems. Those who are not serious problems will be let go first. I will observe their future actions before making a decision." After he finished speaking, he said, "Secretary Huang still doesn't know about this. I will take some time to inform him in the next two days."
After they finished talking about business, the two started to chat. Li Rui found out from Song Chaoyang that Sun Shuqin would be staying in the hospital for three days during this trip to Beijing for chemotherapy. On the afternoon of the fourth day, she would take the train back to Qingyang by herself.
Li Rui asked curiously, "Why don't you send a car to Beijing to pick Teacher Sun up?"
Song Chaoyang said, "If you send a car to pick her up, she will be safe. But the problem is that it will take too long to return to Qingyang from Beijing. If you sit for too long, you will feel uncomfortable. It will also be uncomfortable to lie down. It will be much faster to take the train back. You will be back in a few hours. Moreover, the train is also very comfortable."
Li Rui frowned and said, "But it is really worrying to let Teacher Sun come back alone. She will feel very uncomfortable after the chemotherapy. If there is no one by her side to take care of her, what if … How about this? The night before Teacher Sun is discharged, I will take the train back to Beijing and find a place to rest for the night. The next morning, I will accompany Teacher Sun to the train station and take the train back together. I will take care of her on the way back and it will not affect my work. At most, I will be delayed for half a day in the morning."
Song Chaoyang said, "I have arranged for Shao Yugang, who is stationed in Beijing, to take care of these things. This includes helping Teacher Sun to get discharged, buying her a ticket, and sending her to the train station … But you are right. Teacher Sun will also need to be taken care of on the way back. After the chemotherapy, she will feel very uncomfortable. Who knows what will happen on the train?"
Li Rui said, "Then I will make this trip?"
Song Chaoyang hesitated and said, "It is a waste of your talent to make this trip. But I am really worried about using someone else …"
Li Rui smiled and said, "Then it is settled. Anyway, I will be taking the train back and forth. I will not be tired. I will go over at night and come back the next morning. It will not affect my work."
Song Chaoyang nodded and counted with his fingers. "Your Teacher Sun arrived at the hospital yesterday. She will be receiving nutrient fluids for half a day and one night. Today, she will officially start the chemotherapy. After the chemotherapy, she will be under observation for a day. She can be discharged the day after tomorrow. Then you will rush to Beijing tomorrow night, which is next Monday night. Before you go, contact Shao Yugang, Director Shao, and ask him to arrange a place for you to stay. "
Li Rui said, "There is no need to trouble Director Shao. I have friends in Beijing. I can stay at their house."
Song Chaoyang's ears twitched. He asked with interest, "Is it that Reporter Zhuang?"
When Li Rui heard him mention Zhuang Haixia, he felt bitter. An Ying had warned him not to provoke Zhuang Haixia again, so as not to delay her youth and love. Even more so, he did not want to hurt her. Although it was not nice to hear, it was from the bottom of his heart. He could only try his best not to provoke her in the future. Even if he was forced to meet her, he had to treat her as a friend and not cross the line. He sighed and shook his head. "It is not Haixia. It is another friend."
