Li Rui saw that the young man was friendly, but he could tell that his laughter came from the bottom of his heart. There was no hint of flattery in it, so he was not angry with him. Instead, he liked him a lot. He smiled and said, "Okay, it's urgent. Hurry up and get in the car."
Shen Yuanzhu invited Li Rui to sit in the leader's seat on the right, while he sat behind the young man to accompany him. After the two closed the door, the young man skillfully drove the police car out of the Municipal Party Committee building.
Shen Yuanzhu saw that he was driving too fast and said, "Little Zhang, you don't have to drive too fast. If we want to save people, we have to ensure our own safety first. "Little Zhang laughed and said," Haha, Director Shen, have you never sat in my car before? Don't worry, I guarantee that you and Director Li won't be hurt at all. I'll even let you feel the speed of the car. "
Shen Yuanzhu smiled helplessly and said to Li Rui next to him, "Director Li, Little Zhang has always been a free spirit. Please don't mind him." Li Rui thought to himself. To be able to be so free in the Municipal Public Security Bureau, even if Little Zhang was just a driver, he was probably not an ordinary person. He did not dare to underestimate him. He smiled and said, "I don't mind. I see that Little Zhang drives very well. He's much better than me."
Little Zhang laughed and said, "Heh, Director Li still trusts me. Director Shen, look, you don't even trust your own people. Director Li won't laugh at you. " Shen Yuanzhu was not angry and said, "This is the first time Director Li has met you, so don't be too proud."
Li Rui said, "Director Shen, we're about the same age. You don't have to be so polite." Shen Yuanzhu smiled and said, "Okay. Oh, right, what happened at the coal mine in Dixi County? I didn't understand and was wondering. "
Li Rui told him about the disappearance of the two Central TV reporters.
Little Zhang laughed and said, "If you ask me, those two reporters have nothing better to do. Instead of investigating those corrupt officials, they go around investigating these trivial matters. So what if they investigate? Can those dead miners come back alive? "
Shen Yuanzhu scolded, "Little Zhang, drive your car properly. Don't express your opinions." Little Zhang laughed and said, "Okay, Director Shen has given the order. I can only shut up." Shen Yuanzhu explained, "Didn't you hear what Director Li said just now? Those two reporters found out that the corruption in Dixi County was bribed, so they came to investigate. Why aren't we investigating corrupt officials? "Little Zhang didn't say anything after hearing that. It seemed like he really didn't want to open his mouth anymore.
Shen Yuanzhu smiled and asked Li Rui, "Director Li, the City Bureau has already set off. Let's not meet them and catch up with them." Li Rui said, "Okay." He then asked, "Director Shen, are you also in the search team?" Shen Yuanzhu smiled and shook her head.
Xiao Zhang suddenly interrupted, "Director Li, our Director Shen was specially arranged by Director Feng to take care of you. Haha." Shen Yuanzhu was furious when she heard that and said, "Didn't I tell you to shut up? Why are you blabbering again? Are you afraid that I will sell you as a mute? "
Li Rui was flattered and said, "Director Shen, is that true?" Shen Yuanzhu said, "Of course it's not true. Don't listen to his nonsense. Director Feng also asked me to personally go to the front line to see what is going on. "
Little Zhang laughed and said, "That's not what you said when you asked me to come." Shen Yuanzhu scolded, "Drive your car!"
Little Zhang looked back at Li Rui and said, "Director Li, you can be the judge. Who is the one talking nonsense? Hehe."
Li Rui knew that the Director of the Office of the Municipal Public Security Bureau actually served the leader of the bureau. It was similar to his job as a secretary. Under normal circumstances, no matter what happened, the office would not send anyone out. Thinking of Feng Weidong's good intentions, he sighed and said, "I was wondering why you were sent out for this kind of thing. Ai, Director Feng is too polite. Do I need to be taken care of? " Shen Yuanzhu said embarrassedly, "Of course you don't need to be taken care of. But in the process of searching for the two reporters, you will have to deal with all kinds of people. But Xi County is a mountainous area and the people there are fierce. Director Feng meant for me to be by your side. With me as a police officer taking care of you, you can avoid a lot of trouble. "
Li Rui thought about it and felt that it made sense. He thought that Feng Weidong was quite meticulous. If it wasn't for his evil deeds of plagiarizing, he would have a good relationship with this person. He said, "But this will delay your rest time." Shen Yuanzhu smiled and said, "It's fine. I'm tired of staying in the office all day. I'll just take it as a vacation."
Xi County was located in the southwest of Shuanghe County. It was a two-hour drive from Qingyang City. If they rushed there at night, it would take even longer. Such a long time wouldn't be easy to pass.
Li Rui chatted with Shen Yuanzhu for a while. He was a little hungry and didn't say anything else.
Shen Yuanzhu called the person in charge of the search team sent by the city bureau, one of the deputy directors, Ji Fei. After understanding the progress of the search team, she put down the phone and said to Xiao Zhang, "Let's find a place to eat first." She then said to Li Rui, "Director Li, Director Ji means that we can't search on an empty stomach. Let's eat first and then rush over to search through the night." Li Rui heard that and felt that it made sense. It didn't matter if they delayed for a while, so he said, "Okay, let's fill our stomachs first."
Xiao Zhang drove to the nearest town and found a restaurant by the side of the road. It looked like business was booming and he stopped in front of it. The three of them went in and found a clean table to sit down. They randomly ordered four dishes and a soup and started eating.
After eating, Li Rui wanted to pay the bill, but Xiao Zhang snatched it away.
Shen Yuanzhu said, "Director Li, don't be so polite. It's the same whoever pays."
What she meant by "it's the same" naturally meant that no matter who paid, they would be reimbursed. After all, this was official business. No one would be stupid enough to pay for it with their own money.
The three of them got into the car and continued driving.
When they reached Xi County, Shen Yuanzhu contacted Ji Fei again. Ji Fei told her that the search team had already met up with the search team sent by the Xi County Public Security Bureau. They were leading the search team to the Heiyaogou Coal Mine in the mountainous area. As for the special team Li Rui was in, the Xi County Government had already sent people to wait for them in the Xi County Government Compound. When they arrived, they would immediately take them to the mountainous area.
Shen Yuanzhu told Li Rui about the situation. Xiao Zhang said, "Director Shen, are they going to search through the night?" Shen Yuanzhu said, "It depends on the situation."
When Li Rui saw her looking at him, he knew that what she meant by "depending on the situation" was actually his own situation. If he were to search with the search team, she would accompany him. If he were to find a place to sleep, she would sleep with him. So he said, "Director Shen, when we reach the coal mine, you and Xiao Zhang should find a place to rest. I will follow the search team to take a look." Shen Yuanzhu hurriedly said, "How can that be? The order I received this time is to follow you wherever you go. How can I sleep while you work? " Li Rui persuaded, "I won't do much work. There are so many police officers and armed police officers. It doesn't matter if I'm there or not. I'm mainly responsible for understanding the latest situation and reporting to the Song Shuji at any time." Shen Yuanzhu said firmly, "That won't do. As long as you don't sleep, I won't sleep either. If you want to sleep, we will sleep together."
Xiao Zhang suddenly burst out laughing. Her smile was a little evil.
Shen Yuanzhu asked curiously, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny about this? "Xiao Zhang shook his head and said," It's nothing. " Shen Yuanzhu thought for a while and understood that her words were inappropriate. She fiercely glared at him from the rearview mirror and said, "When we reach the destination, you sleep by yourself. I will accompany Director Li." Xiao Zhang said, "I know. You two sleep together. En, okay. Then I will sleep first." Shen Yuanzhu was so angry that she stretched out her hand and pinched his arm. Xiao Zhang laughed in pain and said, "Director Shen, don't blame me. You said that first."
Li Rui looked at Xiao Zhang and thought that this kid was so tired. But Shen Yuanzhu couldn't do anything to him. Could it be that this kid was a relative of some leader in the Municipal Public Security Bureau?
When the three of them arrived at the Xi County Government, it was already 9: 15 pm. After meeting the people in the government office, the two cars went one after another to Longkou Town where the Heiyaogou coal mine was located.
Li Rui called Song Chaoyang and told him that he had arrived at Xi County and was rushing to the coal mine where the two reporters disappeared. Song Chaoyang said that he understood and told him to pay attention to his safety.
Li Rui then realized that he hadn't called Lu Qingman yet, so he called her. In front of Shen Yuanzhu, he couldn't talk to her too much. He only said that he was dealing with an urgent matter and didn't have time to chat. He said that he would talk tomorrow. Lu Qingman understood him very well and let him do his work first.
After another hour, they arrived at the Heiyaogou coal mine in Longkou Town located in the Taihang Mountains. When he arrived at the site, Li Rui was completely dumbfounded.
Li Rui originally thought that the Heiyaogou coal mine was just a coal mine. He didn't know that it was a huge town center. What he saw was a forest of tall buildings, flashing neon lights, and an endless stream of traffic. Compared to the night view of Xi County, it was not inferior.
The deputy director of the county government office said that the Heiyaogou coal mine was one of the largest mines in Qingyang City for a long time after the 1980s. At its peak, the mine had tens of thousands of workers. Therefore, the huge human resources surrounding the coal mine slowly grew into a village nearby. Now, tens of thousands of people lived in Heiyaogou Village. There were hotels, markets, and shopping malls. It was more prosperous than Longkou Town.
Li Rui gasped when he heard that. Looking for the two missing reporters in such a huge town center was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
