Yang Changjian reminded Zhang Taiwei, "Taiwei, the person involved in this accident is an old friend of Commissioner Li. She is also a political reporter for the Municipal Party Committee's Song Shuji. You have to deal with this seriously. You have to get justice for her."
Zhang Taiwei stopped smiling and said seriously, "Captain, don't worry. We know what we're doing."
Li Rui could tell from their words that they were going to side with Yao Xuefei. Even though he was happy to see them side with Xuefei, he had to be fair on the surface. He hurriedly said, "I believe Yao Xuefei 100%. She said she was framed, so I think she was framed. But I didn't see the accident happen, so I can't be sure. What do I want to say? If Yao Xuefei is innocent, then we have to get justice for her and punish the family members of the deceased. But if she lied, then she was the one who hit the victim. We can't side with her and have to deal with it impartially. "
Yang Xi could tell that something was wrong with his words. He frowned and looked at him questioningly, "How can you say that? What are you going to do about Sister Xuefei? "
Zhang Taiwei smiled and said, "Well, let's take a look first. But I personally think that Yao Xuefei wouldn't hit anyone. If she really did, she wouldn't deny it. After all, she's a famous host of the city television station. She definitely has morals. "
Yang Changjian walked over and said, "Let's go take a look first."
The four of them walked towards the science department. Li Rui stayed behind and whispered to Yang Xi, "What I said just now was just a facade. If this gets out, people will say that we're using our power to oppress others."
Yang Xi finally understood. He looked at him with admiration and said, "You're thinking too far ahead!"
The twenty or so family members of the deceased were gathered around the entrance of the science building. Some of them continued to cry, some of them continued to make a ruckus, and some of them kept cursing. This group of people happened to block the main entrance of the building. People had to squeeze through the crowd to get in and out.
Zhang Taiwei, who was walking at the front, saw this scene and his face darkened. He shouted into the room, "Liu Xiaoyu, come out!"
He was already abnormally strong, and when he stood in front of the crowd, he was like an iron tower. Now that he shouted these words, he was truly awe-inspiring and imposing.
When the family members of the deceased saw him, they knew that the leader was here. They didn't dare to make a scene. They stopped crying and scolded him. Some people even secretly took a few steps back and stayed far away from him.
Liu Xiaoyu, the chief of the Accident Handling Department, who had been showing off in front of Li Rui just now, appeared at the door almost immediately after hearing Zhang Taiwei's call. He smiled and said, "Captain Zhang, what can I do for you?"
After he said that, he also noticed where Yang Changjian was. His expression changed slightly, and he said, "Oh my, Chief Yang is here too!"
Yang Changjian ignored him and waited for Zhang Taiwei to continue.
Zhang Taiwei looked around and swept his gaze across the faces of the family members of the deceased. When these people were touched by his gaze, they couldn't help but look away. No one dared to look him in the eye.
Only then did Zhang Taiwei speak, "Who are these people? They're crying and making a scene in our traffic police compound. What kind of scandal is this? "
Liu Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Oh, these people are the family members of the deceased. This morning, there was a vicious traffic accident in the area under the jurisdiction of our Third Squadron. The accident caused the death of an old man. These are the family members and friends of the deceased. They're here to be dealt with by the traffic police."
Zhang Taiwei said with a sullen face, "I don't care who they are. In short, it's outrageous that they're crying and making a scene in our compound. There are 20 people here, right? You're just letting them gather in front of the office door. Is this appropriate? If people see this, they'll say that there's a major petition in our traffic police force. If it causes a major adverse effect, can you bear the responsibility? "
Liu Xiaoyu was drenched in cold sweat. He didn't dare to be cheeky anymore. He quickly put away his smile and said, "Okay, okay. I'll immediately get someone to arrange for them to leave …"
Zhang Taiwei interrupted, "Leave? Instead, let them gather in front of our traffic police compound and cry and make a scene? Okay, is it because I, Zhang Taiwei, have wronged you on a daily basis? Are you taking this opportunity to make me look bad? Let me tell you, if you want me to make a fool of myself, I'll embarrass you in advance. "
In front of so many family members of the deceased, as well as Li Rui and Yang Changjian, Zhang Taiwei viciously belittled Liu Xiaoyu. This made Li Ruixin feel a lot better.
Liu Xiaoyu was extremely arrogant towards Li Rui just now. He wasn't even afraid of Li Rui's threats and complaints. He spoke as if he had a good relationship with the leader. But now, his immediate superior, Zhang Taiwei, had rushed over and criticized him harshly in front of everyone. That merciless look of his made it seem as if the two of them were mortal enemies.
When Li Rui saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little confused. He didn't know if Zhang Taiwei was deliberately acting for him to see, or if there was something dirty between the two of them.
Liu Xiaoyu's face alternated between green and white. He said awkwardly, "Then, then I'll arrange for them to wait in the interrogation room."
Zhang Taiwei snorted and didn't comment.
Liu Xiaoyu hurriedly returned to the department's office and called out two subordinates. He ordered them to take the family members of the deceased to the interrogation room next door and settle them down.
The family members of the deceased had been crying non-stop because they wanted to get more benefits when they asked the 'culprit', Yao Xuefei, for compensation. Who would have thought that before they could get any benefits, they would provoke the leader of the traffic police team? How could they have the guts to mess around with the leader? They could only follow with their tails between their legs. They had the support of the county committee's deputy secretary, Gong Jinshu, but Gong Jinshu wasn't here right now. Moreover, they had to ask the traffic police team for help, so they could only obediently follow orders.
Li Rui saw this and sighed inwardly. No wonder there were always leaders who called certain people 'unruly people'. There were actually quite a few unruly people among the common people. These unruly people could be arrogant in their own homes, but they were all soft eggs to outsiders. As the saying goes, 'unruly people need to be suppressed by the government.' Today, he had seen it for himself. This was all thanks to the thousands of years of tradition passed down by their ancestors. If they learned from the western democracy and freedom, not to mention other things, just these unruly people alone would be impossible to deal with.
After the crowd dispersed, Liu Xiaoyu's flattering smile appeared in front of Li Rui and the others again. He smiled and asked Zhang Taiwei, "Captain Zhang, why are you here …" His gaze turned to Li Rui behind him and seemed to understand something. He rolled his eyes and complained, "Chief Yang, Captain Zhang, this person (pointing at Li Rui) came in to visit the culprit as a family member of the culprit. He spoke rudely and disturbed our work, so I chased him out. He threatened to file a complaint against me, so I thought he was joking. Who would have thought that he would actually file a complaint against me? But I didn't do anything, I … "
He misunderstood and thought that Li Rui had really filed a complaint against him. Little did he know that Li Rui didn't even take him seriously, let alone lower himself to his level.
Zhang Taiwei waved his hand and shouted, "Cut the crap. Let me ask you, where is the culprit you mentioned?"
Liu Xiaoyu hurriedly moved aside and said, "Inside."
Zhang Taiwei walked in. Liu Xiaoyu didn't know what he was going to do, so he nervously followed him in. Yang Changjian, Li Rui, and Yang Xi also followed behind.
After entering the room, Li Rui saw a young man in casual clothes with his back facing the door. He was earnestly persuading Yao Xuefei, "Beauty, no one wants to be involved in this matter, but since it has already happened, we can only accept our fate. The culprit is already dead, but we, the living, still have to live well, right? I suggest that you don't be stubborn. Just listen to us and settle this privately. They didn't make any excessive demands, did they? They asked for 1.5 million yuan at first. You said it was too much, so they lowered it to 1 million yuan. Is that okay? You just have to gather the money. 1 million yuan isn't much now. You can buy a two-bedroom, two-living room apartment in the city, and it'll cost 700,000 to 800,000 yuan, right? It's quite cheap to buy someone's life. You drive an Audi, so you must have earned a lot, right? Work for a few more years, and you'll get this 1 million yuan back, right? Besides, you don't have to fork out 1 million yuan yourself. The insurance company will have to pay a part of it. It's better to settle this privately so that you don't get detained and delay your work … "
This man sounded like he was from the traffic police team. He was so engrossed in persuading Yao Xuefei that he didn't even notice Zhang Taiwei and the others entering the room. He was so focused on persuading Yao Xuefei that he didn't even notice Zhang Taiwei and the others entering the room.
Zhang Taiwei shouted coldly, "Wang Yang …"
The man, Wang Yang, turned around and saw Zhang Taiwei. He quickly stood up and smiled. "Ah, Captain Zhang, you … why are you here?"
Zhang Taiwei said coldly, "Aren't you from the political department? When did you start working in the accident management department? "
Wang Yang was embarrassed when he heard that. He stuttered as he explained, "No … I … I just came here because I had nothing to do. I just … just casually lectured her."
Zhang Taiwei snorted and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Get out!"
Wang Yang didn't dare to say anything. He walked past him and left the office.
Liu Xiaoyu saw that Wang Yang was kicked out. He lowered his eyes, and there was a flash of hatred in his eyes.
Yao Xuefei saw Li Rui, Zhang Taiwei, and the others walk in. She was surprised and puzzled. She didn't dare to sit down anymore. She stood up with a strange look on her face.
Zhang Taiwei saw the cuffs in her hands and asked Liu Xiaoyu, "Why did you cuff her?"
Liu Xiaoyu said confidently, "Uh, we initially suspected that this person might escape or do other dangerous things. Just in case, according to the regulations of the people's police on the use of police weapons, we handcuffed her. Besides, she killed someone. It's not right to not detain her. "
