In the past few days, Lu Ming has been in close contact with the 'outside'. The previously planned escape route eventually went wrong, which put Lu Ming into a dilemma. Now the last trace of battery on his mobile phone is about to run out.
Under such circumstances, Lu Ming finally decided to surrender. This was a decision he made after thinking about it all night last night.
No matter how unwilling he was, Lu Ming knew very well that he had no other choice now. Thinking that he was a department-level cadre, but now he was hiding in the mountains and forests like a savage. Lu Ming couldn't help but feel sad for himself.
With the hope of escaping already slim, Lu Ming knew that surrendering now was his best choice. Instead of waiting to be caught, it would be better to seize the last chance now and strive for a lighter sentence in the future.
.
Putting away his cell phone, Lu Ming sighed, unwilling to give up, but now that he surrendered, he really relaxed, and his mind that had been tense for many days in a row was relaxed.
In fact, Lu Ming had another option, which was to call Xu Honggang, inform Xu Honggang of his situation, and ask Xu Honggang to find a way to arrange his departure. However, Lu Ming did not dare to make this call because Xu Honggang had previously hinted that he should go on his own initiative.
He surrendered and took matters into his own hands. Now that this situation has arisen, Lu Ming is worried that Xu Honggang will not help him.
Forget it, it is possible to send someone to kill him. Although this possibility is slim, Lu Ming, who has worked in the police system for so many years and has seen the sinister people, does not dare to take advantage of him.
Take any risks with your life. As the old saying goes, it is better to live than die. Even if he has to face prison in the end, Lu Ming would rather live.
There is great terror between life and death, and how many people can easily look down upon life and death?
This is why Lu Ming did not choose to call Xu Honggang for help, but called Chen Zhenggang to express his intention to surrender, and also specifically told the other party to keep the news of his surrender secret. This is because Lu Ming was more or less subconsciously guarding against Xu Honggang.
Saving the little remaining battery on his phone, Lu Ming waited in place, taking deep breaths from time to time. Perhaps this was his last chance to breathe free and fresh air.
Beijing.
Chu Heng, who rushed to the capital overnight last night to prepare for a face-to-face interview with his father-in-law but failed to do so, had just made a phone call to the province.
There will be a cadre meeting held in the province this morning. Originally, after Chu Heng checked flights yesterday evening and saw that there was a flight from Beijing to Huangyuan as early as 6:30 this morning, he thought he could make it back to Huangyuan to attend the meeting at 10 a.m. today.
A cadre meeting was held, but the plan did not change as quickly as it did last night.
Since he could meet his father-in-law, Chu Heng could only stay and wait. He couldn't make this trip to the capital in vain. Therefore, Chu Heng would definitely not be able to attend the provincial cadre meeting in the morning, so Chu Heng called back to ask for leave, and
He also made a fuss and said that he was not feeling well and was going to the hospital to have his health checked.
After checking the time, Chu Heng walked out of the hotel and walked along the street.
After arriving in the capital last night, Chu Heng chose to stay in a hotel instead of staying at his father-in-law's house.
Walking on the street, Chu Heng looked at the landscape buildings on both sides of the road from time to time. He didn't know if it was his own illusion. He always felt that even the air he breathed here carried the aura of power.
No one knows Chu Heng's deep desire for power and the seed of ambition that was deeply planted when he first came to the capital when he was young.
Not long after Chu Heng stepped out of the university campus to start working, he once went to the capital with a few friends. At that time, he was just an ordinary clerk. After he came to the capital, several friends who were with him
Chu Heng has always been impressed by the rich historical and cultural atmosphere of the capital, but Chu Heng did not feel it at all. On the contrary, Chu Heng saw power.
When he was in the city, Chu Heng, who had just entered the system at that time, felt that a department-level cadre was already a very big shot. As for department-level cadres, they were even more elusive and could only be described as condescending. However,
In the capital, even if you work at the department level, you can only use ordinary
Generally speaking, department-level cadres who were unattainable in Chu Heng's eyes became commonplace as soon as they arrived in the capital. From that time on, the seeds of ambition took root and sprouted in Chu Heng's heart. At that time, Chu Heng
I thought that one day I would have a place in this city.
And all along, Chu Heng has been working hard towards this goal. If he was a bit young and frivolous when he set a goal when he first came to the capital when he was young, now, Chu Heng seems to be no longer so far away from his goal.
Far away, at least he has reached the main hall now. At his age, he will undoubtedly have a bright future in the future. Chu Heng is also full of confidence in himself. These days, as long as you dare to think, everything is possible. If you don’t even think about it,
Just think about it, what’s the difference between that and salted fish?
As his thoughts were wandering, his cell phone suddenly rang. The sudden ringtone brought Chu Heng back to reality. Seeing that it was his father-in-law calling, Chu Heng quickly picked up the call.
"I will arrive at the office around 10:30 in the morning. If your matter is urgent, just come to the office to find me." Chu Heng's father-in-law's voice rang on the other end of the phone.
"Dad, then I will go directly to the office to find you." Chu Heng replied hurriedly.
"Okay, I'll see you in the office then." Chu Heng's father-in-law said.
The two of them didn't talk much. Chu Heng's father-in-law didn't feel comfortable talking to Chu Heng because there were other colleagues around him, so he just hung up the phone.
Chu Heng's father-in-law's name is Yu Zhanfei. He is currently in Beihe Province, which is adjacent to the capital. Yesterday he went to Beihe Province for investigation. Because the provincial cadres kindly invited him to have dinner, Yu Zhanfei stayed one more night, but Chu Heng
I came to Beijing from Huangyuan to look for him last night.
It is because Chu Heng is his son-in-law that Yu Zhanfei will arrange to return to the capital as soon as possible this morning. It happens that he is not far back from Beihe Province.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, Yu Zhanfei arrived at the office. Chu Heng was already waiting in the corridor outside the office. Seeing Chu Heng, Yu Zhanfei waved to Chu Heng and opened his office door.
Entering the office, Yu Zhanfei complained rather remarked, "Is there anything that cannot be discussed over the phone and must be discussed in person?"
A smile appeared on Chu Heng's face, "Dad, there is indeed something more important."
Yu Zhanfei looked at Chu Heng, motioned Chu Heng to sit down, and asked, "Tell me and listen."
When Chu Heng heard this, he didn't rush to speak. Instead, he looked at the secretary who came in behind Yu Zhanfei.
When Yu Zhanfei saw this, he glanced at Chu Heng doubtfully, and became more and more puzzled, what on earth was his son-in-law up to?
Thinking in his mind, Yu Zhanfei waved his secretary away.
"Xiao Chu, can we talk now?" Yu Zhanfei said with a smile.
There were only two people left in the office, and Chu Heng said, "Dad, I still want to stay in Jiangdong Province."
After hearing Chu Heng's words, the smile on Yu Zhanfei's face slowly disappeared, and he frowned and said, "Xiao Chu, I have talked with Guan Xinmin about your matter, and you also agreed to follow him to Biannan Province. Why are you suddenly here now?" Changed your mind? Guan Xinmin thinks highly of you. If you go to Biannan with him, in the future..."
"Dad, our Jiangdong Provincial Disciplinary Department is currently investigating Jiangzhou City Mayor Xu Honggang. If I stay in Jiangdong, I can have the opportunity to compete for the position of Jiangzhou City Mayor." Chu Heng interrupted his father-in-law and said.
Hearing Chu Heng's words, Yu Zhanfei was slightly startled and stared at him with burning eyes.
"Xiao Chu, are you sure?" Yu Zhanfei stared at Chu Heng and asked.
Yu Zhanfei frowned slightly, it turned out that his son-in-law had this idea!
Yu Zhanfei pondered for a moment and said, "Xiao Chu, Guan Xinmin has been transferred. Without his support, it will be very difficult for you to seek the position of mayor of Jiangzhou City."
Chu Heng nodded and said, "Dad, I understand, but it all depends on people. If you don't even fight for it, how do you know whether you can succeed?"
Chu Heng said and glanced at his father-in-law again, "Dad, I also need your support for this matter."
Yu Zhanfei looked at Chu Heng and smiled faintly, "Xiao Chu, if your family doesn't speak the same language, I will definitely support you fully, but are you sure that staying in Jiangdong will be a better choice?" ?Guan Xinmin appreciates and values you very much. If you go to Biannan with him, he has already expressed his opinion that he will let you serve as the top leader of the city in the future. This may not be worse than if you stayed in Jiangdong."
Chu Heng was silent for a moment and continued, "Dad, currently the top leaders in Jiangzhou City can enter the provincial leadership. If I can become the mayor of Jiangzhou City, I can use this as a springboard in the future..."
Good guy, you are very ambitious! Yu Zhanfei raised his eyebrows and looked at Chu Heng with a strange look. His son-in-law really had great plans. He might not even be able to win the mayor's seat in the future, but he had already begun to plan to enter. The matter of provincial leadership can be described in four words as being very ambitious.
Of course, if it were someone else, Yu Zhanfei might be disgusted with it, but when it comes to his son-in-law, Yu Zhanfei has a different view. He feels that his son-in-law is a highly motivated person, which Yu Zhanfei admires very much.
After a moment of thought, Yu Zhanfei said, "Xiao Chu, I'm very pleased that you have this ambition, but you have to understand that these are just your personal ideas now, and they may not necessarily be realized. Even if I fully support you, I won't be able to realize them." I will definitely be able to help you. After all, if Guan Xinmin does not hold office in Jiangdong Province, you will lose a strong supporter in the province."
What Yu Zhanfei was talking about was a current reality, and Chu Heng was well aware of this. This was why he was very frustrated with Guan Xinmin's transfer at this time. If Guan Xinmin could delay his transfer for a while, maybe the situation would be better. It's quite different.
Smacking his mouth, Chu Heng said softly, "Dad, I understand everything you said, but I still say that everything depends on man."
