The headquarters of the Southwest Bureau is not in Chongqing, where we have been, but in Jinguancheng, which is in the same area. After spending the night at Guo Yizhi's place in Jinling, we took a flight to Shuangliu Airport in Jinguancheng at noon the next day.
Because it was business, someone came to pick me up at the airport.
Carrying our luggage and walking out with the bustling crowd, we saw a beautiful girl waiting for us at the exit.
That girl is Liu Sili. When she was handling the case of poisonous oranges in Chongqing, she had many interactions with us. The most memorable thing was that when we were trying to extract the poison vaccine, she stepped forward and tasted the maggots for us.
I was sick and collected experimental data. At that time, there were so many experts, professors, and senior men who recoiled and shook their heads when they heard our method. Only she took the initiative to accept the job and persisted through gritted teeth.
Come down.
For such a girl who dares to work hard and is willing to work hard for advancement, I concluded at the time that she must not be a thing in the pool. Now that I saw it, it was true. When we went up to meet her, we saw a young man behind her.
, called her Director Liu, and joked with her, saying that she was promoted very quickly, and after not seeing her for such a short time, she became a leading cadre.
Liu Sili was ashamed, smiled modestly, and told us that her title, to put it nicely, is the director of the emergency special office, and she is also a deputy, but in fact it is not even a stock level. To put it in a bad way, it is just for comrades.
You two are just running errands, and you are not leaders. If we are talking about leaders, you two are the real big shots. This time, Director Zhao personally ordered you to receive you well. For this reason, he also asked
I repeated it twice, which shows how much the Southwest General Administration attaches great importance to you.
When Liu Sili said this, I didn't respond, I just laughed.
I may not know about others, but this old boy Zhao Chengfeng, whether it was my refusal to recruit him at the beginning, or the fact that he later captured his junior brother Qingxu in Tianshi Dao in Longhu Mountain, or that we are under the protection of the Black Hand Twin Cities.
This made him deeply resentful of us. Ever since I was seconded to the Southwest Bureau last winter, he has never had any good intentions.
When I was arrested that day, I was jumping up and down. Zhu Guozhi, the pretty boy who contributed the most, was Zhao Chengfeng’s secretary. Zhang Weiguo, who was in charge of the interrogation, was also his confidant transferred from the Southeast Bureau. A case that was obviously full of doubts was quickly handled and turned into a beating.
The unjust, false and wrongful convictions were so clumsy and hasty that even neutrals like Zhao Xingrui and Monk Xiuyun saw something fishy.
Behind all the events, if Zhao Chengfeng hadn't stirred up trouble and added fuel to the flames, I could have written the word "Lu" backwards.
What makes people even more suspicious is that Bailu Tan was originally in good condition, but suddenly retracted his confession. Who was behind it?
Later, Zamao Xiaodao and I used the elimination method to screen out suspicious characters. The final result turned out to be Zhao Chengfeng, the executive deputy director of the Southwest Bureau, who was the most suspicious. It is said that the internal struggle between the factions is the most cruel.
Yes, Zhao Chengfeng has a kind face but a dark heart, which makes people have to be careful.
However, these were all words we spoke in private. No one could be naive enough to confront Zhao Chengfeng in person. Zamao Xiaodao and I laughed, chimed in a few words without saying much, and then got in the car.
Following Liu Sili is a newcomer to their office, a fresh graduate who has just passed the national examination. Li Changzheng, we call him Xiao Li, I don’t know if he has received any systematic training from the police. He was temporarily hired as a driver. He doesn’t talk much.
, but very smart, carrying bags, opening doors, etc., which makes people feel good, but his eyes can't help but look at us curiously from time to time, which seems a bit too immature.
Liu Sili sat in the passenger seat and turned around to chat with us.
In fact, we don’t feel disgusted with Liu Sili. After all, she took great care of our daily life when she was in Chongqing. Later, when she was in Fengdu, she accompanied and monitored us all the time. It was just her duty. We will not worry about this.
In my mind, I communicated with him like an old friend, talking about the current situation of the Southwest Bureau and some of the recent cases supervised by the Bureau. Although I don't know whether the information is accurate, I am not completely confused.
I thought of the people who had helped us during the escape, so I tried to find a way to ask about their situation - just in case, I asked very skillfully. People who were concerned or not asked mixed questions and kept calm.
I also learned a lot about the current situation and information about Yang Cao, Southwest Traveler Zhao Xingrui and Monk Xiuyun of Qingcheng Mountain.
Even if a villain is jealous, grudges will be repaid, but a gentleman will be grateful and his kindness will remain in his heart forever. Zamao Xiaodao and I will never forget those who once helped us in our most difficult times.
The Southwest Bureau headquarters is located near the famous Qingyang Palace in Qingyang District. It has a large area. There are several good-sized buildings within the walls. There are lush trees and flowers blooming inside. It looks very impressive from a distance, but the gate is low-key.
Yes, look at that look, which is a lot older than me.
There was no mysterious master like Mr. Zhang from Zhenhumen at the door, but armed policemen standing guard with guns. After checking the documents, the young man Xiao Li went to park the car, and we, led by Liu Sili, arrived in front of the main building.
The lobby on the first floor of the main building, and the offices on the second and third floors, were deserted in front of the door. There were only a few people in sight, which fully showed the sign of Qingshui Yamen. However, going up to the fourth floor, you need to check your ID again, which really revealed the relationship.
The department is very busy with people coming and going in a hurry.
Liu Sili took us directly to the Disciplinary Inspection Office. This department also has a brand called internal supervision.
Walking into the department, there were only a few people in the large office area outside, but they were all busy and talking on the phone. Liu Sili called "April" inside, and a very energetic Sichuan girl came from behind the desk.
A head popped up from under the board, saw us, and hurried over.
Liu Sili whispered a few words to her, and the Sichuan girl nodded, shook hands with us respectfully, and then greeted us warmly: "Follow me, our director is waiting for you inside, and it's already dinner time."
Yes, I was planning to go to the cafeteria to eat, but I heard you were coming, so I waited until now..."
Under the leadership of April, we came to the innermost office and knocked lightly on the heavy wooden door. A serious inquiry came from inside. After April's announcement, the door opened quickly.
, a middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses and dressed like an old scholar came out. April introduced this man as Shen Jian, the director of their Discipline Inspection Office.
Director Shen greeted us warmly and shook hands with us. His expression was so friendly that he didn’t look like a cadre doing discipline inspection at all, but a good friend we hadn’t seen for many years.
He dragged us into the office, exchanged warm greetings, and asked April to make a few cups of tea and ask for good oolong.
In the sofa area of the director's office, we didn't talk about anything. We just chatted and showed our kindness. In addition, there were baskets of free compliments. After all, is he qualified to be the director of the Discipline Inspection Office of the Southwest Bureau? The position of the old guy is one step ahead of Zhang Weiguo's. This man's smooth and considerate approach makes us unable to get angry at all.
Before coming here, Senior Brother explained to us that the purpose of this trip is to restore our reputation. As for the matter of pursuing responsibility, it is a big deal, so let him and the uncle of the Xiao family play the role of bad guys, so as not to get involved. Sometimes the dog is so anxious that he jumps over the wall, and another incident arises.
I know this should be the result of a compromise. After all, if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if people are too observant, they will be ignorant. If I push it too hard, it will not only fail to achieve the goal, but will cause more trouble, so I don’t talk much. I am talking to Shen After half an hour of cordial exchanges with the director, we, who were confused by the mandarin, were finally relieved and followed the Sichuan girl out in April to go through various procedures.
These things are complicated to talk about and involve various aspects, but we only need to deal with it here, and others will naturally follow up. After completing these things, we ended our fugitive life of being wanted for more than half a year and regained our freedom. Director Shen, on behalf of the Religious Affairs Bureau, expressed his most sincere apology for the injustice we have suffered, and promised that if there is any unfair behavior, the handling personnel will be held jointly and severally accountable.
He spoke impassionedly, but I could only ignore it. After all, after more than a year of integration, Zhao Chengfeng is now the veritable second-in-command in the Southwest Bureau. A slippery person like Director Shen may not necessarily risk Huge risk to offend your immediate boss.
When we were about to leave, Director Shen invited us to have lunch together. Because we were not in a very good mood, we declined politely. However, Director Shen seemed to be very persistent, holding my and Zamao Xiaodao's hands and insisting on going to the nearby Taipei Palace. Having a meal at Anju Restaurant can be regarded as fulfilling the friendship of a landlord.
It was so good that there was a dispute. Just when I was having a headache, Liu Sili came over and told us that Deputy Director Zhao wanted to see us.
Hearing that Zhao Chengfeng was looking for us, Director Shen smiled bitterly and urged us to hurry over. Although we didn't want to see the two-faced guy Zhao Chengfeng, we were even more unwilling to lose the scene, so we followed Liu Sili out of the main building. I heard a few The offices of the leaders of the General Administration are in a small building at the back, but after leaving the main building, we did not go to the back, but came to the parking lot.
After asking around, I found out that Zhao Chengfeng wanted to treat us to dinner. Zamao Xiaodao and I looked at each other, come on, is this the Hongmen Banquet?
The place where Zhao Chengfeng invited us to eat was at a nearby private restaurant. The environment was fresh and elegant, which was completely different from the spicy and spicy flavor of Sichuan restaurants. After walking through the long carved corridor, we came to a place on the third floor. In front of the box, Liu Sili opened the door. When she saw Zhu Guozhi, who was white-faced and beardless, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and Zhang Weiguo, a semi-bald man with a Mediterranean hairstyle, stood up from Zhao Chengfeng who was sitting in the middle, he felt confident. Being in a state of mind, my face fell down almost immediately.
