On Li Rui's side, he was already furious. He thought that the female driver had used money to shut Cui Guangli's family's mouths. He didn't expect that she was so evil that she couldn't even bear to pay. Instead, she used her best violent means to intimidate Cui Guangli and coerce her to sign the settlement agreement. Wasn't this too much? This was simply bullying and humiliating Cui Guangli's family like they were children!
Li Rui was so angry that his heart was sweet. He wanted to call Meng Shuhai and Inspector Zhu to come over and let them listen to Cui Guangli's family's complaints. He wanted to see what they would do. But on second thought, so what if he called them over? Perhaps they were the ones who taught the female driver to do what she did. Even if they were not involved, they had long been in cahoots with the female driver. They would definitely not deal with this matter fairly. In the end, the best result would be that the female driver really compensated Cui Guangli's family. But was this the result that he wanted and could accept?
Absolutely not!
"Meng Shuhai, Inspector Zhu, I will definitely investigate you. If I find out that you are accomplices in this case, I will never let you go!"
Li Rui had just made this decision when he heard a familiar male voice behind him. "County Magistrate Li, why are you here?"
Li Rui turned around and saw Xu Guang, whom he had met yesterday. He felt strange when he saw Xu Guang. Although he admired Xu Guang in his heart, there was a layer of barrier between them because Xu Guang was Meng Shuhai's man. He felt awkward talking to Xu Guang. He said coldly: "Why can't I be here? What are you doing here? "
Xu Guang was very surprised by his tone. He said with some respect, "I … I just finished eating. I was on my way back to the unit to see the victims."
Li Rui asked, "Why did you want to see them?"
"Uh …" Xu Guang was speechless. He was tongue-tied and couldn't continue.
"Hmph, you know about this matter, right?"
Xu Guang's face changed slightly. He said, "What matter? County Magistrate Li, what are you talking about? "
When Cui Guangli's family of five heard Xu Guang mention "County Magistrate Li" for the first time, they didn't feel anything. However, when Xu Guang mentioned it to Li Rui for the second time, they were all shocked.
"Who is County Magistrate Li?" Cui Guangli stepped forward and asked. She looked at Li Rui hesitantly.
Xu Guang was also very surprised and said, "This is County Magistrate Li. Why? You still don't know his identity?"
Cui Guangli was shocked and looked at Li Rui in disbelief. Her mouth was wide open, and she could not close it. After a while, she asked, "You … you are the county magistrate?" Her tone was as if she had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
Li Rui smiled helplessly and said, "Yes, deputy county magistrate. However, even though I am the county magistrate, after running around for a few days, I still can't get justice for you. Haha, I don't want to be a deputy county magistrate."
Cui Guangli's family of five was shocked. They thought that Li Rui was just a passerby with a sense of justice. They didn't know that he was one of the deputy county magistrates of Shuanghe County. When they thought about how he, as a deputy county magistrate, had come to visit their family members many times and ran around silently to get justice for them, they were all moved and their eyes became wet.
Xu Guang was also very surprised. He knew that Li Rui had been helping Cui Guangli's family to get justice. He even offended Meng Shuhai and Hu Zhixin, the two top figures in the county. However, he didn't expect that Li Rui had not revealed his true identity to Cui Guangli's family. He only communicated with them as an ordinary witness. It was ridiculous that his own boss, Meng Shuhai, thought that he was trying to gain fame from the people. Was this how one gained fame? Meng Shuhai was measuring the heart of a gentleman with the yardstick of a villain! Tsk tsk, there was actually a deputy county magistrate who did things like this in the world. It was really unbelievable. His personality was so noble that he felt ashamed standing next to him!
When Xu Guang thought of this, the idea in his heart became stronger and stronger. He didn't fight anymore and said, "County Magistrate Li, can you come out for a while? I have something to report to you."
Li Rui looked at him in surprise and didn't ask much. He told Cui Guangli to wait for a while and walked out with Xu Guang.
The two came to the end of the corridor. There was a window there. The window was open, and the spring breeze blew in, making it very comfortable.
Xu Guang said with a face full of guilt, "County Magistrate Li, I have to apologize to you first. As Meng Shuhai's secretary, I know a lot of inside information about Cui Guangli's case, including the collusion between Meng Shuhai, Hu Zhixin, and Shang Meimei, and how Meng Shuhai taught Shang Meimei how to escape from legal punishment. But I didn't have the courage to tell you before because I was afraid that after I told you, I would suffer from Meng Shuhai's revenge and it would affect my future …"
Li Rui raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but he quickly relaxed and said with a smile, "Then why do you dare to tell me now?"
Xu Guang looked at him with admiration and said, "Because I was inspired by you. This is not flattery, but the truth! Really, the sense of justice and responsibility you showed in this case deeply affected my thinking and saved my conscience. It also made me recall my original intention of joining the police force. I became a police officer to protect the people, not to protect the interests of the rich and powerful. If I stayed by Meng Shuhai's side, even if I didn't do anything wrong, I would be an accomplice to a villain. I don't want to continue like this. "
Li Rui was very emotional when he heard this. He smiled and said, "This is not because you were inspired by me. Don't push the credit to me, it's because of your conscience. If you didn't stick to your pure heart, I wouldn't be able to inspire you no matter how strong my sense of justice is. But no matter what, I'm very happy that you can think this way. "
Xu Guang said with a red face, "County Magistrate Li, don't you blame me? In fact, I hid a lot of things from you before. "
Li Rui said with a smile, "The past is the past, and the future is the future. We have to look at problems from the perspective of development. Hehe, and it's not too late for you to tell me now."
Seeing that he didn't criticize him, Xu Guang relaxed and said, "Yes, yes, I'll report to you now and tell you everything I know. In fact, when you first called Meng Shuhai for help, he asked me to investigate this matter. After knowing the truth, he should have contacted Hu Zhixin. Then, he asked me to instruct the City Pass police station to let the case go without a conclusion. He didn't even want to file a case. That meant that not only did he want to protect Shang Meimei, but he also wanted to protect the four ruffians who attacked her …"
He talked about the collusion between Meng Shuhai, Hu Zhixin, and Shang Meimei in this case. He was eloquent and clear, but even so, it took him a long time to finish. In the end, he said, "The reason why I came to visit Cui Guangli's family today is because this morning, the director of the City Pass police station, Zhu Tao, told me about the latest progress of the case and asked me to report it to Meng Shuhai. I heard that Shang Meimei and Cui Guangli had reached a private settlement, and with Shang Meimei's domineering personality, it was impossible for her to compensate Cui Guangli's family. I was worried that she got the settlement agreement by threatening Cui Guangli's family again, so I deliberately came to take a look. I know that whether things are as I think, and whether I came to take a look, I can't change the reality. But I just feel uncomfortable if I don't take a look. "
Li Rui said with a cold expression, "You're right. Shang Meimei beat up and threatened Cui Guangli's family again, and then got the settlement agreement written by Cui Guangli. The agreement states that Cui Guangli's family will be compensated, but in fact, Shang Meimei won't compensate at all. The reason why she deliberately wrote it was for me, the deputy county magistrate, to see. She wants to give me an explanation. A commoner like Cui Guangli is nothing in their eyes. "
Xu Guang's face was full of resentment when he heard this. He said, "How can people be so vicious and heartless? Are they the only ones who are human, and others aren't human? "
Li Rui said coldly, "Since they want to be the bad guys, then there's no other way. We can only get rid of them. Let's not talk about Hu Zhixin first. I must bring Shang Meimei and her thugs to justice. Meng Shuhai is the director of the Public Security Bureau. It's fine if he doesn't help the victims under his jurisdiction to uphold justice, but he actually helps villains to escape the punishment of the law. How can such a person be the director of the Public Security Bureau? How can he be a cadre of the party? I must drive him out of the Public Security Bureau! "
When Xu Guang heard him mention Hu Zhixin, he thought of something and said, "By the way, County Magistrate Li, Meng Shuhai and Hu Zhixin called last night. I heard them say that they want to investigate you. As for what they want to investigate you for, I don't really understand. You have to be careful."
Li Ruixin's head trembled. Instead of getting angry, he laughed. Meng Shuhai and Hu Zhixin were two people. One was the evil director of the Public Security Bureau, and the other was an evil person. He hadn't investigated them carefully, but they had already made the first move and started investigating him. What? Had he offended them? Was this their revenge? He thought that it was all thanks to Xu Guang's warning. Otherwise, he might have fallen into their trap without even knowing what happened. He thanked him and said, "This situation is very important. Thank you, Xu Guang."
Xu Guang smiled and said, "This is what I should do. Anyway, I've already decided that I won't help Meng Shuhai do bad things anymore."
