Ling Shuyao glanced at him and said, "Okay, thank you. You can go back now." Li Rui didn't know whether to cry or get angry. He walked to her desk and faced her face to face. He said in a low voice, "I say, you're too much. I came all the way here to help you with this big favor, and after I'm done, you don't even invite me to sit down and immediately chase me away. Don't you feel embarrassed?" Ling Shuyao didn't even raise her head. "It's so late, why are you in my office? Hurry up and leave. "
What she said made sense. It wasn't just the Municipal Party Committee. As long as it was a party or government organization, it was filled with countless rumors. There was a group of people who spread rumors everywhere. They didn't care what the people involved thought. They just followed their own mood and said whatever they felt good about.
For example, in the Municipal Party Committee's Political Research Office, someone might have already discovered that Li Rui had entered Ling Shuyao's office. If Li Rui went in and left after a while, it might not be a big deal. However, if he stayed in there for a while, there might be rumors about him.
Li Rui also quickly thought of this point. He sighed, "Ai, it's really not easy to stay with you for a while." Ling Shuyao sneered, "What's there to stay with me for?" Li Rui thought about it and agreed. They didn't have much in common. If they really stayed together for a while, they would probably be bored to death. He said, "Okay, I'll leave. You continue with your work." He turned around and was about to leave when Ling Shuyao suddenly thought of something and shouted, "Wait, don't go! I just remembered that the lights in my dormitory are broken. Can you take some time to check it out for me?" Li Rui said unhappily, "You should contact the department in charge of maintenance at the Agency Affairs Bureau." Ling Shuyao said, "I'm too lazy to call. If you know how to fix it, then let me take a look. "Li Rui teased her," If I go, I won't be leaving. "Ling Shuyao was also free and easy," You don't have to leave if you don't want to leave. Just fix the light bulb for me. "
These words made Li Rui very depressed. He thought to himself, So, in order to fix the light bulb, she didn't mind spending the night with me. Was I that insignificant in her heart? He didn't know if she was joking or if she really thought that way. Looking at her expression, it didn't seem to be fake. He sighed and said, "I don't have time now. It's better after 9: 30." Ling Shuyao said, "Third floor. Turn left at the stairs. It's 309. If you can make it, I'll leave the door open for you." Li Rui thought about it. There didn't seem to be anything important tonight, so he agreed. Before he left, he asked her about the malfunction of the light bulb in detail. He felt that there might be a problem with the ballast, but it was already so late and the light bulb store was closed. He was afraid that it wouldn't be easy to buy one. No matter what, he had to go take a look at the malfunction to completely determine the problem.
After work, on the way to the Qingyang Hotel, Li Rui told Song Chaoyang about the inside story that he had heard from Tang Yan.
Song Chaoyang said in shock, "How daring!" Li Rui said, "Now I finally understand why when Wang Yonggang went to the station to report the case, no one paid attention to him. And why when he was raped, the police at the station just hid in the crowd and watched. And why when the Municipal Government sent an investigation team to investigate, the police were so partial to Li Zhengzheng, the boss of Good Home Supermarket." Song Chaoyang frowned and said, "These black sheep colluded with unscrupulous businesses and completely messed up the train station." Li Rui said, "I haven't thought of a way to solve this matter yet, because I don't know how to get evidence. Without evidence, it's obvious that we can't declare war on the station. "
Song Chaoyang asked, "What kind of evidence do you want?" Li Rui said, "Evidence of receiving dirty money, the twenty thousand yuan protection fee! But they only take money and don't give receipts, so this is a bit difficult to deal with. " Song Chaoyang said, "I can't deal with this matter anymore. You don't have to worry. Take it slow, we'll find a way."
After coming out of the VIP building, Li Rui wanted to go home and bring special tools for circuit repair, such as a pen and insulation tape, before going to Ling Shuyao's dormitory. But he bumped into the deputy general manager of the hotel, Li Xiaoyue. He had an idea and said with a smile, "Sister Xiaoyue, do me a favor. Your hotel must have an electrician, right? Help me find him and I'll borrow some tools. "Li Xiaoyue was startled and asked," What do you want to fix? Can't you just ask the electrician to go with you? " Li Ruixin thought that the fewer people who knew about his visit to Ling Shuyao's dormitory, the better. He smiled and said, "Don't bother him. It's late, I can do it myself."
Li Xiaoyue was also a smart person. Seeing that he refused, she didn't force him. She took out the walkie-talkie behind her and asked the staff in the hotel office to call the electrician over with the tools.
Li Rui specifically said, "If there's a spare current ballast, lend me one. I'll return it another day." Li Xiaoyue smiled and said, "Return what? What's the big deal about a ballast? "After saying that, he gave a few more instructions.
A few minutes later, the electrician appeared with a simple toolbox. After Li Xiaoyue explained the situation to him, the electrician handed the toolbox to Li Rui and took out a box from his pocket. Inside it was a brand-new current ballast.
Li Rui put the current ballast in his briefcase and opened the toolbox. Inside, there was everything from a pen to a screwdriver and tape. He was very satisfied and thanked the two people, then left with the toolbox.
Ten minutes later, Li Rui appeared in the shadows of the Municipal Party Committee's backyard. He looked around to make sure there was no one around before he took a few quick steps forward. Then, he stopped, looked around, and continued forward. He seemed to have never sneaked around the Municipal Party Committee's courtyard like a thief. In fact, he had no reason to do so, because he was there to fix the lights for Ling Shuyao. Now it seemed like he was there to do something with her.
Li Rui walked through the backyard and arrived at the four-story dormitory that Ling Shuyao had mentioned. He hid in the shadows for a few minutes. Seeing that there was no one coming in or out, he quickly rushed over. During the process, he kept his head down to avoid being recognized. When he reached the door, he stopped and listened carefully. After confirming that there was no sound of footsteps or people talking inside, he stuck his head out to look inside. After confirming that there was no one inside, he quickly walked in. After taking a few steps, he found it inexplicably funny. What was he afraid of? Who would know that he was there to look for Ling Shuyao? He was not afraid of being seen entering the dormitory. As long as he was not seen when he entered Ling Shuyao's room, that would be enough. Thinking of this, he boldly walked in with his head held high and his chest out. He quickly went upstairs.
When he reached the third floor, the corridor was quiet. There was no one and no sound. He guessed that the people here all went to bed early. He turned left and walked past a few rooms. He saw room 303. He looked carefully and saw that there was a gap in the door. It seemed to be what Ling Shuyao had said before. He gently pushed the door open. The first thing he saw was a small living room. He also saw a door that seemed to lead to the bedroom. He did not see Ling Shuyao in the room. After thinking for a while, he walked in. He did not want to be seen by anyone if he stayed at the door for too long.
As soon as he walked into the living room, he saw Ling Shuyao coming out of the bedroom. The two of them looked at each other. Ling Shuyao said lightly, "You came pretty quickly." Li Rui placed his briefcase and toolbox on the sofa and said, "Which one of the lights is faulty? Let me take a look at it first." Ling Shuyao pointed at the light above her head and said, "Try turning it on."
Li Rui walked to the door and turned off the light. When he turned it on again, the light bulb flashed a few times before reluctantly coming on. He nodded. "I should be able to confirm that it's a problem with the ballast. If there's a problem with the light bulb, it won't come on. "Ling Shuyao asked," Do you know how to fix it? "Li Rui said," Just change it to a ballast. Do you have a chair in your room? "
Ling Shuyao moved a chair over and placed it directly under the light bulb.
Li Rui turned off the light. Just as he was about to step on the chair, he remembered something and said, "Use your phone as a flashlight and light it up for me." Ling Shuyao said, "Oh." She went back into the room and took out her phone. She turned on the flashlight and pointed it at him. Li Rui said, "Give me whatever I need later." Ling Shuyao said, "Why do you need someone to wait on you when I'm just asking you to fix a light bulb?" Li Rui laughed. "It's for efficiency." Ling Shuyao said, "Okay, quickly fix it."
Li Rui took off his shoes and stepped on the chair. He took off the lampshade and handed it to Ling Shuyao. She went to put the lampshade on the floor. Li Rui looked at the wiring of the ballast. It was inconvenient to connect the wires at the terminals. If he wanted to connect them, he would have to remove the terminals. In that case, he might as well not remove the terminals. He only needed to cut the four wires of the broken ballast and connect them to the four wires of the new ballast. As for the other two wires that were connected to the input wires, they were easy to connect. He just needed to remove the tape, remove the power supply wires of the broken ballast, and finally connect the wires of the new ballast. After understanding the basic situation, he started to work. First, he asked for a pair of pliers from Ling Shuyao and cut the four terminal wires. Then, he asked for a lighter and burned off the glue to reveal the copper wires. Then, he connected them one by one and wrapped them with tape …
Ling Shuyao said worriedly, "Be careful not to get electrocuted." Li Rui said, "There's no power now …"
He said it casually, but when it came to connecting the 220-volt main wires, he deliberately used a flashlight to test it. After confirming that there was no power, he started to work.
When he was done, it was already 20 minutes later.
