Qiao Liang nodded solemnly and said to Wu Huiwen, "Sister Wu, I understand."
The two of them were chatting while eating, while Yue Shanshan and Wei Haoyun on the side were more of a foil, especially Wei Haoyun, who seemed to only focus on eating, gobbling up the food in a hurry.
Yue Shanshan was very discerning. After eating for a while, Yue Shanshan stood up and said to Wei Haoyun with a smile, "Brother Wei, this is my first time in Guan. When I came in just now, I saw that the scenery here is very good.
Brother Wei, can you go out for a walk with me?"
Yue Shanshan had just heard Qiao Liang calling Wei Haoyun "Xiao Wei", so she knew Wei Haoyun's last name. She would take the initiative to call Wei Haoyun out together, obviously to make room for Qiao Liang and Wu Huiwen to be alone.
Perhaps it was the intuition of being a woman, but Yue Shanshan could vaguely feel that there was something different in Wu Huiwen's eyes when he looked at Qiao Liang. This seemed to explain why Wu Huiwen admired Qiao Liang so much. Perhaps, it was not just a simple favor from his superiors.
Approval from subordinates.
Wei Haoyun was a little confused at first about Yue Shanshan's intention. He was a straight man and he didn't have so many twists and turns in his head. When he heard Yue Shanshan's words, he was a little confused at first. He said to him that if you want to leave, just go out. Why don't you still?
You called me, the two of you are not familiar with each other at all, and what does it mean for a man and a woman to go out alone?
Wei Haoyun looked at Yue Shanshan, then at Qiao Liang and Wu Huiwen, and finally reacted with some hindsight, blinked his eyes, stood up with a smile, "Oh, I'm really full, I should go out for a walk to digest."
.”
Yue Shanshan and Wei Haoyun left, and only Qiao Liang and Wu Huiwen were left in the box. Qiao Liang suddenly felt a little strange. Originally, he had put aside the unclear ambiguity between him and Wu Huiwen, and deliberately kept a distance from Wu Huiwen, but now,
Qiao Liang discovered that his heart was not really calm.
Wu Huiwen looked as usual and looked at Qiao Liang with a smile, "It's a pity that I have a meeting tomorrow, otherwise I would have a few more drinks with you tonight."
Qiao Liang smiled and said, "Sister Wu, there will be many opportunities in the future."
Wu Huiwen looked puzzled, "There may be many opportunities, but I don't know if I will be accompanied by such beautiful scenery next time."
Qiao Liang smiled and said, "Sister Wu, let's continue to eat here next time. As long as you want to come, I will come with you at any time."
"Really?" Wu Huiwen looked at Qiao Liang, his beautiful black eyes reflecting Qiao Liang's handsome face.
Wu Huiwen was a little distracted for a moment...
In the county, Zhong Liyang and Yu Yongchen were taken to the county bureau and handed over to the criminal investigation department. Then he was called to the office by the executive deputy director Lu Changming.
To be precise, Lu Changming is now the top leader of the county bureau, and now he is just waiting for the relevant county departments to go through the process.
Lu Changming did not ask Zhong Liyang to sit down, but asked him to stand to express some dissatisfaction.
After waiting for Zhong Liyang for a while, Lu Changming raised his head and looked at Zhong Liyang and said, "Zhong Liyang, you caught Yu Yongchen, do you think I should give you credit or criticize you?"
Zhong Liyang's heart tightened. He knew that Lu Changming must be blaming him for rushing directly into Zeng Wenshan's house to arrest him without asking for permission. He estimated that Zeng Wenshan might have called Lu Changming to complain. Another possibility is that maybe Lu Changming
Ming didn't want to see him really capture Yu Yongchen.
Zhong Liyang didn't speak. Lu Changming couldn't help but patted the table and said, "Zhong Liyang, Zeng Wenshan is your secretary of Hongmu Township and also your superior. If you want to go into his house to arrest someone, should you at least report to me?
one time?"
Zhong Liyang immediately explained, "Road Bureau, it's like this. I was in a hurry to arrest people, and I was afraid that Yu Yongchen would run away, so I forgot to report it to you."
"Did you forget or you just don't want to report to me?" Lu Changming's eyes flashed with coldness. He already knew from Zeng Wenshan that Zhong Liyang received Qiao Liang's instructions directly, but Lu Changming couldn't point it out clearly. at this point.
Looking coldly at Zhong Liyang in front of him, Lu Changming didn't know how Zhong Liyang hugged Qiao Liang's thigh, but now he had to give Zhong Liyang a beating to let Zhong Liyang know who was in charge of the county bureau. The other party passed him and followed directly. Qiao Liang reported that a taboo had been violated, and now Lu Changming was thinking about how to deal with Zhong Liyang legitimately.
The next morning, Qiao Liang sent Wu Huiwen to the highway entrance and watched Wu Huiwen's car leave before Qiao Liang returned.
Back in the office, before Qiao Liang's buttocks were still hot, secretary Yu Jianghe walked in and reported, "Secretary Qiao, Director Lu of the county bureau is here and said he has something to report to you."
Lu Changming? Qiao Liang squinted his eyes. He had not formally dealt with the second-in-command of the county bureau. He was about to be promoted to director, and Qiao Liang really wanted to meet him.
Qiao Liang said to Yujiang Hedao, "Please come in."
Yu Jianghe walked out, and after a while, Lu Changming came in. He walked to Qiao Liang's desk and said respectfully, "Secretary Qiao."
Qiao Liang looked at the other person for a few times, nodded slightly, pointed to the chair opposite the desk, and said, "Comrade Changming, sit down."
Lu Changming sat down respectfully and said, "Secretary Qiao, I'm here to report to you about the arrest of Yu Yongchen. Last night, our police department's Hongmu Township Police Station arrested Yu Yongchen."
Qiao Liang asked knowingly, "Where did you catch him?"
Lu Changming said, "At Zeng Wenshan's house."
Qiao Liang stared at Lu Changming, "Is it Zeng Wenshan, the secretary of Hongmu Township?"
Lu Changming nodded and said, "Yes."
Qiao Liang continued, "Is harboring criminals suspected of breaking the law?"
Lu Changming said seriously, "Secretary Qiao, this requires further investigation. We must first determine whether the hiding behavior is subjective and intentional. If not, legal responsibility is usually not pursued."
Qiao Liang looked at Lu Changming meaningfully, "Comrade Changming, this matter involves the main leading cadres of the township, and it happens just when you, the new director, are about to take office, so it will be a big test for you."
Lu Changming said solemnly, "Secretary Qiao, don't worry, we will investigate impartially in accordance with the law and regulations, and we will never be interfered by any external factors."
Qiao Liang nodded lightly, "Okay, then I will wait for the results of your investigation."
After saying this, Qiao Liang changed the topic, "Let's not talk about the issue of harboring criminals for now. Comrade Changming, when you were investigating this case, I wonder if you have carefully analyzed and judged why Yu Yongchen did this Someone wanted to attack me? Judging from their actions at the beginning of the night, it was obvious that they didn't know me. These people and I were strangers to each other. Just because I went to Cao Qinming's hometown, they attacked and kidnapped me and the driver. , if you think about it the other way around, does it mean there is something fishy about Cao Qinming’s disappearance?”
Lu Changming nodded and said, "Secretary Qiao, your analysis makes sense. Before Director Hu was transferred, you asked Director Hu to file a criminal case on Cao Qinming's disappearance. I think it was right. Next, we will transfer him A capable force to investigate the case of Cao Qinming’s disappearance.”
Qiao Liang blinked and took a deep look at Lu Changming. This Lu Changming seemed to be quite reliable?
Thinking in his mind, Qiao Liang reminded him again, "Maybe we can dig deeper into this Yu Yongchen. Maybe we can find clues related to Cao Qinming's disappearance."
Lu Changming said, "Secretary Qiao, you are right. There may be a certain correlation between the two."
Qiao Liang smiled slightly and said, "If we continue to investigate according to this idea, we might actually gain something."
Lu Changming said, "We must handle it in accordance with the spirit of your instructions, Secretary Qiao. I will report to you, Secretary Qiao, any progress in the case as soon as possible."
Qiao Liang nodded slightly. He was quite satisfied with Lu Changming's performance at this time. The new director who was about to take office would really not find fault with him for a while.
At this time, secretary Yu Jianghe knocked on the door again and came in, "Secretary Qiao, Zeng Wenshan, the secretary of Hongmu Township, is here."
This guy still dares to come over? Qiao Liang's eyes turned cold. Before he could say anything, Lu Changming had already stood up, "Secretary Qiao, you are busy first. I will go back to arrange the next case interrogation and investigation work."
"Okay." Qiao Liang nodded and did not hold back.
Looking at Lu Changming's leaving figure, Qiao Liang was thoughtful. He didn't think that Lu Changming was a person who could be completely trusted just because of his performance. After staying in the system for a long time, Qiao Liang knew very well that there are two-faced people. There are too many. It doesn’t matter what a person says, the key is what he does.
As soon as Lu Changming left, Zeng Wenshan walked in. As soon as he entered the door, Zeng Wenshan felt as if his parents had died. He said with a sad face, "Secretary Qiao, I'm here to apologize to you."
Qiao Liang glanced at Zeng Wenshan and said, "Comrade Wenshan, where did you start with these words?"
Zeng Wenshan's eyes turned red, "Secretary Qiao, unfortunately, we have an unworthy descendant. Yesterday, the wanted criminal in the county, Yu Yongchen, came to my house. My bastard son didn't take him to the police station immediately. He just You verbally persuaded the other party to surrender, but you gave up when the persuasion failed. This is simply a disgrace to our Zeng family and a discredit to our Zeng family. What do you think is the use of such unscrupulous descendants?"
As Zeng Wenshan spoke, tears actually flowed down his face, "Secretary Qiao, I'm sorry for you."
Damn it, you came to my place to sing in an opera. Qiao Liang stared at Zeng Wenshan calmly, there really are all kinds of weird things these days.
Qiao Liang was unmoved and said calmly, "Comrade Wenshan, as far as I know, that Yu Yongchen is your nephew?"
Zeng Wenshan said sadly, "Yes, this bastard has always been messing around outside in my name. This time he ignored the law and did such lawless things. He deserved to be arrested. Fortunately, the police station The people came in time and caught him, otherwise we don’t know how long we would have let him escape..."
Just as Zeng Wenshan was performing with great emotion in Qiao Liang's office, on the other side, Lu Changming, who had just been respectful in Qiao Liang's office, now had a more smug smile on his face. He took out his mobile phone and called Lu Changming. Ming made a phone call.
When the call was connected, Lu Changming smiled and said, "Mr. Duan, I have temporarily dealt with Secretary Qiao's side, but he has indeed long suspected that Yu Yongchen is related to Cao Qinming's disappearance, so he asked me to follow the clues and investigate in depth."
